    "Look at these people." Gao Yang stood in the tall temple and pointed to the Greek representatives from all over the place who came to serve in the distance.  He said with a disdainful smile, "They abandoned their original master when the situation was critical and relied on poaching the master's corner to gain a lot of benefits. Now they want to get protection from the new master. Isn't it very contemptible?"  ?¡± ¡°What Lord Taiwei said is absolutely true,¡± Cao Cao, standing behind Gao Yang, said respectfully.  Gao Yang glanced sideways at him, smiled, and said with a hint of indifference in his voice, "These people will be eliminated in the future. The Han Empire does not need these kings." "Understood." Cao Cao paused slightly.  , and then responded softly.  "Also." Gao Yang turned around and looked at the huge city of Athens, and whispered, "I can understand that you need to relax after the war. After all, the army is like this. But it's okay for the sergeants to mess around. You senior generals spend all day  Are you living in the belly of those Roman women? Huh? Have you ever seen a woman or have you been seduced by these sluts? I heard that some people are obsessed with bed all day long and don¡¯t even go to the military camp.  It's not over yet!" "Yes." Hearing the hint of displeasure in Gao Yang's tone, Cao Cao hurriedly lowered his head and responded repeatedly.  He naturally knew who some of the people Gao Yang was talking about were.  Those are all his relatives.  During this period, Cao Cao and others were enjoying the privileges of the victors.  There is endless wealth, food, and of course the essential beauty to enjoy.  These exotic women made the Han army linger, especially those Roman ladies sent over by the Greeks.  That kind of style is indeed very attractive to men.  It's just that the war is still going on, and being obsessed with it will naturally cause Gao Yang's displeasure.  The Romans were preparing for war, but they were so lax. How could they not make Gao Yang angry?  "Go tell those people." Gao Yang raised his hand and pointed at the envoys who occupied a castle in various places and dared to call themselves kings, and said in a deep voice, "Let them send people, money, and various supplies to follow our army to Italy.  !¡± ¡°Yes!¡± Cao Cao bowed hurriedly and prepared to cross the sea to attack the Italian mainland.  However, this plan was temporarily shelved.  The reason is not complicated. A large number of Roman legions appeared in the northern province of Macedonia in the Roman Empire.  In the event of a threat from the flanks.  Gao Yang can only deal with the flank threat temporarily.  The Roman legions that appeared in Macedonia were extremely powerful, and their numbers were still increasing.  These legions were not only garrisons from the Macedonian provinces, but also troops from the northern provinces who came south for reinforcements.  In less than a month, there were more than twelve Roman legions in the province of Macedonia!  Four of them are elite regiments with eagles.  "Lord Lieutenant, we can't wait any longer! Now it's time for the army to attack and defeat all the enemy troops who are still gathering." In the Chinese Army Conference Hall in Gaoyang, Athens City.  Xiahou Dun, the chief general under Cao Cao, shouted eagerly.  "Yes, yes." "Fighters are rare. Let's attack." "We can't watch them gathering troops anymore." "Lord, let's go to war!" "" Xiahou Dun's proposal was echoed by many generals.  .  Reconnaissance shows that the Romans in the north have been rapidly increasing their troops. At this time, their main legion plus auxiliary legions have even exceeded 100,000 troops!  If this continues, it won't be long before the numerical advantage that the Han army has always had will be overtaken.  In the era of cold weapons, the number of people has always been one of the most important benchmarks for measuring strength.  Most of the military generals in the Chinese Military Council expressed their concerns.  Only a few people remained calm.  Gao Yang, on the other hand, was sitting behind the desk with cold eyes, holding a cigarette in one hand and supporting the desk with the other, without saying a word.  A moment later.  Wait until the noise in the meeting hall gradually subsides.  Gao Yang then spoke slowly and said in a deep voice, "Why are you panicking? What kind of enemies have we not seen along the way? There are only more than 100,000 troops. What are you worried about?" "What the Lord Taiwei said is serious.  Yes. The massing of enemy troops will be more conducive to annihilating our army in one fell swoop." As soon as Gao Yang finished speaking, Cao Cao continued.  "You don't need to worry." As Gao Yang's main adviser, Jia Xu said calmly, "We have all fought against the Qin army, and we already know their strength. Don't look at them in the north at the moment.  Assemble a large army, but it is almost impossible for an army of this size to enter the peninsula through the rugged and difficult mountain roads." After a pause, Jia Xu glanced at Gao Yang and then said, "We only need to hold on to a few dangerous points.  Wherever we can, we can cut off the enemy's massive march southward.?channel.  At that time, we had already crossed the sea and headed straight towards the home base of the Da Qin people.  ¡± To be honest, Jia Xu¡¯s battle plan is quite satisfactory, neither aggressive nor conservative. Set up a defense line in the northern mountains of the Greek Peninsula according to the terrain here. Only a small number of troops are needed to stop the Roman legion from going south. But his main force can  Taking this opportunity to cross the river and attack the Italian mainland, it stands to reason that this is the best choice for the Han army now. However, what Gao Yang wants is not to defeat the Roman Empire, but to completely destroy it! His territory is so huge.  , no latecomer in Western Europe could surpass it. How could such a huge empire be destroyed after capturing a Roman city? The Romans could flee to other provinces and continue to recruit locals to fight against the Han army.  So much time to pacify everywhere. Therefore, Gao Yang's view of the war to conquer the Roman Empire was very simple, that is, after losing the main military force of Rome, the Roman provinces were not left in despair.  Even if he rebels alone, Cao Cao can easily solve the problem, and Gao Yang does not need to leave a large army to garrison here. For the Romans to gather troops in the northern province of Macedonia.  Gao Yang was happy to see this. He knew where these troops came from. In order to resist the attack of the Han Empire, the Romans gathered almost all the forces they could.  At this moment, the Roman army is divided into three large legions. One is the Nigel Legion in the North African province of Cyrenaica. After large-scale recruitment, the number of Roman legions under Nigel reached an astonishing twelve.  In addition, there are several auxiliary corps and tens of thousands of local mercenaries. The total number has exceeded 100,000. The second large-scale legion is centered on Rome and gathers internal and external Spanish provinces, Gaul, Africa, etc.  The local garrison, as well as a large number of new troops recruited urgently, have more than thirty Roman legions here! Of course, there are also a large number of new recruits.  More than 100,000 people. The third large army is the Macedonian Army currently assembled in the north. The total number of this army is more than 100,000, although the total number of these troops has exceeded 400,000!  There are many barbarian armies from various tribal countries, as well as newly recruited auxiliary legions with poor combat effectiveness. However, this number alone is enough to put pressure on the Han army. After all, the combined number of Han armies in the north and south is not enough.  There are only 200,000 troops. They still need to garrison a large number of newly occupied cities, and they are fighting on the outside. Without Gao Yang's presence, this war will almost be lost.  "Gao Yang casually put out his cigarette and looked around at the many generals in the meeting hall with cold eyes. He said in a deep voice, "This matter does not need to be discussed further.  I have decided to defeat this enemy force in the north first and then cross the sea to attack the capital of the Qin people.  As for the North African side.  " Having said this, Gao Yang frowned slightly, and after pondering for a moment, he turned his attention to Sun Jian. "Wentai.  " "The end is here.  "Hearing Gao Yang greeting him, Sun Jian hurriedly responded. "You take the fleet south to Alexandria and mobilize a group of troops from the south.  As for how much to transfer back, let Zhang Liao decide for himself.  As long as it is enough to garrison Egypt, suppress local resistance and be able to resist the attack of the Qin people in Cyrenaica.  " "The last general takes orders.  "Sun Jian responded immediately. But he felt a little helpless. It turned out that he was just working as a transport worker. "And.  Gao Yang looked at Sun Jian with a smile, and then said, "After transporting the troops, you will lead the fleet to the core area of ??the Qin people. You must annihilate their main naval force!"  Provide support for future operations.  Understand?  " "The last general takes orders!  "Sun Jian's voice changed immediately, and he could clearly feel that his mood was much higher. "Yeah.  Gao Yang nodded, looked around, and said, "As soon as Zhang Liao's troops arrive, we will take the initiative to attack northward and eliminate the threat on the northern flank."  " " Mr. Taiwei.  "Zhao Yun stood up and saluted, frowned slightly, and asked with some worry, "Most of our army is composed of cavalry.  The terrain in the north is difficult and mountainous.  When our soldiers and horses went there to fight, we used the long force to attack the shortcomings.  " Zhao Yun's words are correct. The terrain of the northern province of Macedonia is complex, with mountains crisscrossing it everywhere. It is very suitable for the Roman legion with infantry as the main body to fight. However, the Han army is now mainly cavalry, and it will be difficult to go there.  I can¡¯t do it. ¡°Hey.  "After Gao Yang listened to ZhaoAfter saying this, he immediately laughed.  He raised his finger and pointed at Zhao Yun and said with a smile, "Zilong, have you forgotten that our Han army was also an infantry-based army before the Northern Expedition to the grasslands! Now we just dismount and become infantry. Could it be that our army  The infantry can't defeat these Daqin people?" "That's it." A voice of agreement suddenly sounded in the conference hall.  During the Western Expedition, cavalry fought in groups, but they forgot that the Han army originally relied on infantry.  (To be continued)
