    "No matter how many times I see it, this seven-story fortress is still so beautiful. ¡ó¡ý," Gao Yang, wearing casual clothes and holding a SLR in his hand, said with emotion as he stopped outside this city composed of seven castles of different colors.  "This is where the wealth of the Persians gathers." Yuandian responded. "Although Vorogis V took away everything he could take away when he escaped. But the sergeants can still unearth endless treasures here.  Wealth. The fighting spirit of your troops has begun to decline rapidly, because their wallets are already full. It is not easy to let these rich guys continue to fight for you in this era. "" Haha." Gao Yang shook his head.  Smiling softly, he raised his camera and took a few photos of the beautiful scenery in front of him.  Looking at the magnificent castle in front of me, he smiled and said, "I should also be grateful that they didn't scrape off all the gold and silver on the outside of these castles. Otherwise, such a beautiful picture would not be possible." Deeply again  I took a look at the beautiful castle.  Gao Yang sighed, turned around and walked out of the city.  "Sergeants are also human beings. It's a good thing that they get rich. As for the decline in fighting will, it's the same for everyone. You can't force this kind of thing. Since you don't want to continue fighting and want to go home and enjoy it, then go back.  "Except for civilization, the greatest advantage of the Chinese nation is its large population."  The advantage is almost invincible. Have you made arrangements? " "You think I'm just here to rest for a while?" Gao Yang smiled and came to the side of his horse, turned over and rode on.  "Well, now the vacation is over. Let's continue our expedition." Ctesiphon, an ancient name.  This glorious city in the past has long ceased to exist in modern time and space.  During this era, Ctesiphon was the winter capital of the Parthian Empire.  It is located on the left bank of the Tigris River and at the mouth of the Diyala River.  This was originally a military city built by the Greeks to resist the attacks of the Seleucid dynasty.  After the rise of the Parthians, they built this place as their capital.  Ctesiphon is located approximately 40 kilometers southwest of Baghdad.  This is the most important city in the Parthian Empire.  It had been burned by the Roman legions on an expedition decades ago, and the Parthians spent a lot of time and materials to rebuild the city.  Decades have passed, and this city once again faces the threat of an alien army!  When Gao Yang led the main force of the Han army here.  Vorogis V, the young emperor of the Parthian Empire, fled again, just as he had done in the summer capital of Ecbatana.  Once again the emperor abandoned his winter capital.  "The land here is really fertile." Cao Cao said with great enthusiasm as he looked at the extremely fertile Tigris River.  "From now on, everything here belongs to us." Gao Yang raised his chin slightly and said with a smile.  "What Lord Taiwei said is true." A group of Han army generals immediately responded.  For these generals who lacked nothing, the only thing they wanted to pursue at this time was the eternal reputation of celebrities.  What could be more exciting than participating in this epic and vast expedition at this moment?  What makes everyone more famous throughout the ages?  Ordinary sergeants may gradually lose motivation because they have gained a lot of wealth and military exploits, but these generals will not.  At least not until they follow Gao Yang all the way to the end of the sky and the corner of the sea!  "The barbarian chief Vologis V ran away again. I heard from the barbarian nobles that he ran to the city of Hatra in the north. Will our army go to hunt him down immediately?" His face turned pale after being basked in the sun for a long time in Central Asia.  Cao Cao, who had turned dark, stepped forward and asked.  Gao Yang smiled and shook his head and said, "That's just a frightened man. What's the point of chasing him? Our first priority now is to restore the army's combat effectiveness, at least to restore it to the level we just left the Western Regions."  That kind of strength. Now the sergeants have packed their bags with countless wealth, and their will to fight to the death has begun to decrease rapidly.  Zhang Liao was very aware of this.  He could clearly feel that the fighting will of his cavalry was constantly weakening as the army's western expedition extended.  "That's right." A group of generals responded one after another.  "But, what should we do to make the sergeants regain their fighting will? It's not just a small number of sergeants, but almost all sergeants. This is too difficult." Jia Xu looked at him with a frosty face.  He asked helplessly as the vast army lined up and slowly entered the Parthian capital.  "That's right." Gao Yang raised his hand and waved the riding crop in his hand.  ?He said in a loud voice, "It seems impossible to arouse the fighting will of most of the sergeants. So I have already thought about it and directly replace a group of troops from the mainland." "Ah!!"  All these generals were dumbfounded.  "Lord Lieutenant!" Zhao Yun, who has a calm personality, said with some anxiety, "It is more than ten thousand miles away from the mainland? Even if it is all cavalry, it will take more than a year to come and go! If we leave, this will be great  The whole situation is gone.¡± ¡°That¡¯s right, that¡¯s right.¡± Everyone agreed.  Don't look at the barbarians everywhere who are now surrendering.  That's because the main force of the Han army is here to deter!  If the main force of the Han army withdraws, these barbarians will inevitably rebel immediately.  Why did His Majesty Vologis V endure the ridicule of countless people and run away again and again?  Isn¡¯t it just to last until the day when the Han army takes the initiative to withdraw?  These barbarians who have been hanging out on the Silk Road all year round naturally know how far it is to go to Han.  As long as the Han army retreats.  In this era, if you want to travel thousands of miles to launch such a large-scale expedition here again, it will take at least ten years of preparation.  This time is enough to change the place again.  "Who said that troops must retreat when the army is rotated?" Gao Yang raised his chin slightly and looked at his generals with a half-smile.  He smiled and said, "Can't you think about the problem in a different way? Don't always focus on the land." "On the land?" As a smart person, Guo Jia instantly thought of a possibility.  He hurriedly shouted, "Your Majesty Taiwei, is it the navy of Governor Sun Da that is here?" This sentence woke up the man in the dream.  Those here are the most elite group of people in the entire Han Empire.  As soon as they were prompted, they immediately thought of this possibility.  It turns out you can still travel by water.  In fact, as a mainland nation with thousands of years of inheritance, it is normal to not think of this.  After all, there was nothing to refer to before.  "That's right." Gao Yang said with a smile, "Sun Wentai's fleet is about to arrive at the southern seaport. His fleet is full of sergeants who have come for rotation. They are a group of people who have never seen the world. They are very poor in their pockets.  The young men brought nothing but their own people." After a pause, Gao Yang looked around at the seemingly endless huge Han army and said with a smile, "These have no fighting spirit and have been fed.  The full army left their equipment and horses behind, and could follow the fleet back to the homeland with their wealth. Don't underestimate the navy, their large ships can carry thousands of people, and they can sail very fast, in just two months.  You can return to the homeland from here. Those rotating sergeants put on their armor, mounted their horses, picked up their weapons, and immediately went into battle! They are not rich, and they are full of desire for victory!  Your Excellency Taiwei has a clever plan, and we are not as good as him." Following Cao Cao's conclusion, all the generals deeply admired Gao Yang.  Haraqos, located at the confluence of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, is the Port of Basra in modern time and space.  In this era it was just a small fishing village, but its geographical location was extremely important.  When Gao Yang brought the main force of the Han army here to urgently build a dock for a few days, a huge cloud sail appeared on the sea level in the distance, covering the sky and the sun.  There are hundreds of thousands of top-notch sailing ships.  According to Gao Yang's order before the expedition, Sun Jian led his fleet to explore the route to Harax early according to the chart given to him by Gao Yang, and visited Cam Ranh Bay, Lion City, Ceylon Island and other places along the way.  A large transit base was established.  Then, according to Gao Yang¡¯s order, nearly 200,000 unarmed sergeants were loaded onto the naval fleet in the Yangzhou area and sailed all the way to the distant sea.  This fleet constantly stopped at various large bases to rest and recuperate.  It took several months of stop and go to get to Harax.  There is nothing we can do about this.  The fleet was filled with sergeants from the north.  It was impossible for them to sail on the vast sea for two months and come directly, so they had to use this stop-and-go method.  "Hahaha~" Looking at Sun Jian who jumped off the boat and came all the way in front of him, Gao Yang laughed and shouted, "Wentai, you have made history! A voyage of this scale and this distance will definitely be forgotten.  Go down in the annals of history!¡± ¡°Oh~¡± The surrounding generals made envious sounds in unison.  The name goes down in history.  Now who doesn¡¯t want to do this?  However, Sun Wentai was able to transport hundreds of thousands of troops all the way from his distant homeland. This illustrious achievement is definitely worthy of being remembered in history.  "Thank you, Lord Taiwei, for your kindness!" Years of life at sea did not diminish Sun Jian's heroic spirit.  After bowing respectfully, Sun Jian responded loudly.  ? ??Okay, don¡¯t say anything else, just drink and drink.  Make sure you don¡¯t get drunk today!  "Gao Yang laughed and pulled Sun Jian towards the Chinese army's tent in the distance. "After a long expedition, I met so many of my own people, how could I not drink for eternity! (To be continued)
