For the retreating triumphant Emperor Severus, he was not completely defeated. At the very least, he resolved the domestic conflicts and was no longer in danger of being overthrown by the Roman people. ¡Ñ And later historians agree that the glorious Rome at that time went from strength to decline in just a few years, and even led to peasant rebellions. All this comes from Emperor Hongwu's economic plunder policy against Rome. The triumphant emperor allowed the Romans to smash, smash, and loot the legions, destroying the Parthia region, and the relics of the gods fell in the smashing, smashing, and looting. Subsequently, the personally enriched smashing, smashing and looting legion accepted the adaptation of the Triumphal Emperor and became a member of the regular Roman army. Therefore, Rome had three million troops. Therefore, the victorious Emperor Severus deployed 300,000 troops in Babylon, 500,000 heavy troops in Egypt, and 500,000 troops in Greece. The remaining troops were collected behind the Greek defense lines. , resume production and construction. The triumphant Emperor Severus sent Sempronius Tiberius, a descendant of the glorious bloodline, to be governor of Babylon, and set up a fortress in the majestic ancient city of Babylon. He expected to rely on the fortress walls to consume the Qin army's effective strength on a large scale and give the Qin army a blow. , severely dampened his spirit. On the other hand, Severus sent Gedetus Julius Caesar to governor Egypt and told him, "In the beginning, Pompey's ancestors conquered Africa and were awarded "greatness." But now, you should be like Like your ancestor Caesar, you protect the empire's Africa. If the Qin army breaks through Babylon and moves towards Europe, you will send troops to cut off the Qin army's supply line. " Severus also sent Marcus Uni, a descendant of the Glory bloodline. Us Octavian, the governor of the Greek region, said: "Greece is the beginning of the empire's glory. Protecting Greece means protecting the glory of the empire." In this regard, Severus was in the entire Mediterranean region. Lay out the next triangular defense system. And he himself will sit in Rome and work hard to restore the country's vitality. He said: "When the empire regains its strength, the counterattack begins." Severus began to specifically deploy his triangular defense system in order to keep the Qin army out of his empire. On the other hand, Qin Feng, who was about to reach the west coast of the Persian Gulf, received news that the Romans were withdrawing across the board. "The glory of Great Qin has begun!" Qin Feng said to his military advisors and generals in the flagship command room. The hearts of the officials of Great Qin were agitated. Once upon a time, could the empire that emerged from China gain the glory of the world? It was the tyrannical Han Empire. It has not really left East Asia. In the world today, the only country with glory is Rome. At this moment, Great Qin has begun its path to glory. The glory of Da Qin is the glory of China. There will only be one glory in the world, and Da Qin¡¯s road to glory has just begun. Rome will fight to the bitter end in order not to lose its glory. No country or nation in the world today dares to say that it will be able to defeat Rome. This is a declaration of war between a new empire and an old empire. Who wins and who loses. It was expected. Everything needs to be done carefully, it is not an exaggeration to say that you are walking on thin ice. Old Jia Xu walked out. His ideal in this life is to die well. However, when he entered the service of Emperor Hongwu, his ideals changed. He is bound to die a happy death and wants to do something for the world. And at this moment. His philosophy has undergone earth-shaking changes again, and he wants to do it in his lifetime. Seeing the glory of Qin, the glory of China enveloped the whole world. "Your Majesty, we should first conquer the southern peninsula of the Persian Gulf to avoid future worries. In addition, the Babylon area is an endless plain. I guess that the Romans will definitely concentrate their forces on the city of Babylon. It is at the intersection of the two river basins and is easy to defend but difficult to attack. "" Qin Feng nodded in agreement, "We must solve the Arabian Peninsula first." "The Arabian Peninsula!" The ministers thought that there is no official name for this peninsula at the moment. Since the emperor said it is called the Arabian Peninsula, let's call it the Arabian Peninsula. The Arabian Peninsula, of course, and the people there are Arabs. Therefore, the Arabs of later generations would also like to thank Emperor Hongwu. If Emperor Hongwu had not given them their names, they would not be Arabs. Maybe they would be called Atubs. And the Babylonian area is indeed a great plain that cannot be defended. Just how flat it is can be seen when King Nebuchadnezzar II of Babylon built the Hanging Garden for his queen. Queen Metes of Babylon was a Mede. Not long after she came to Babylon, her face became filled with sadness. Nebuchadnezzar II was surprised and asked why. The queen said: "My hometown is covered with mountains and green grass, and here is the endless plain of Babylon. There is not even a small hill to be found. How I long to see our hometown again." There are mountains and winding trails! ¡°There are not even any hills, so it¡¯s very peaceful. However, Nebuchadnezzar II couldn't help but think, "The plains are good for growing crops and raising people. Your country is in the mountains."Here, the people are few and poor. "Of course, he loved his wife deeply, so he didn't say it clearly. Instead, he used houses of different heights as "mountains" in the palace, planted flowers, plants and trees on them as "mountains", and opened up "mountain paths" among them. ", and there is "gurgling water" next to the mountain road. "This mountainous garden is built on the palace, giving people the feeling that the entire imperial garden is suspended in the air, so it is called "Sky Garden". Although the cost of construction and maintenance is It¡¯s huge, but it¡¯s better than the one in Fenghuo Opera among the Princes. ¡°I really want to see the Hanging Garden! " Qin Feng said this. "In the 2nd century AD, when Greek scholars reviewed famous buildings and sculptures around the world, they listed the "Hanging Garden" as one of the "Seven Wonders of the World". Also included in the seven wonders were The Great Wall of China. Due to Emperor Hongwu¡¯s opening up, the people of Qin Dynasty were still aware of this allusion, and Pang Tong also wanted to see it: "These seven wonders are just the palace of our emperor." " When Qin Feng heard this, his liver and gallbladder were split," he said with a smile: "Others are fine, let's forget about the pyramid!" " Lao Jia Xu gave Pang Tong a warning at that time, "If you don't study hard, do you know what the pyramid is for? Pang Tong was very aggrieved, "Isn't it a place to communicate with the gods?" " "Dead people communicate" "Guo Jia whispered. Pang Tong was shocked and knelt down at that time, "Long live my emperor. " Qin Feng was finally able to start his counterattack on Rome. He was happy but didn't take it seriously. He smiled and said, "I guess ten thousand years is enough. The pyramid is not bad. Then we can all live together and communicate with the gods! " When the ministers heard this, they were first happy and said in their hearts, "My emperor is benevolent, sage, and approachable. If it were any other emperor, just this sentence would have beaten Pang Tong to the end, confiscated his family and exterminated his family. Then he became frightened again and said to himself: "We are going to the ancestral graves again!" So, all the ministers pointed at Pang Tong and said, "Master Pang can just live in it." " Unexpectedly, Pang Tongyi rolled his sleeves and said: "Your Majesty, I will accompany you! " When the ministers heard this, they were shocked and said in unison: "We are willing to join the emperor and follow him life and death! " Qin Feng laughed, and soon became serious. He slapped the location of Rome on the map and said, "It won't be too late for our rulers and ministers to discuss the matter before we capture Rome! So, the ministers stirred up and started to take action. Half a month later, good news came frequently, Guan Yu conquered the Arabian Peninsula, and a small number of Jews and nomadic peoples in the peninsula who had been oppressed by Rome were willing to join the Qin system and contribute to the defeat of Rome. Emperor Hongwu thought that, Qin Feng was overjoyed when he encountered great resistance when facing the Jews. But the news from Guan Yu was that the Jews were scattered when the Romans conquered this place hundreds of years ago. , decreed that Guan Yu be conferred the title of Third-Class Han Shouhou, "Middle East" General, and ordered the officials of Qin Dynasty to carefully safeguard the holy city, implement religious freedom policies, and avoid religious disputes. At the end of August 221, the Romans were indeed there. Unable to withstand Qin's legions on the Great Plains, they retreated into the city of Babylon, hoping to use the city to stop Qin's advance. At the end of the same month, the Qin army surrounded Babylon with more than two million soldiers, and 300,000 Romans were captured. Nearly ten times the Qin army surrounded them in fear. In the palace, the governor of Babylon, Tiberius, was in a panic. He scratched his curly hair and said to his tribune: "Doius, has the news from your majesty not arrived yet? " "Report, Lord Governor, your Majesty's edict has arrived! "At this time, a guard officer came to report. Tiberius was overjoyed. He took it and opened it. His face suddenly changed. He threw away the edict and said angrily: "Old guy, this is clearly asking us to die! " The tribune Doius was startled. He hurriedly picked it up and looked at it. His face was also pale. The edict roughly said this: The city of Babylon is strong, easy to defend and difficult to attack. It is also at the intersection of two rivers, so there is no need to worry about water and food. Suitable for long-term defense. I hope the soldiers in the city will fight bravely for the empire. If the Qin army cannot attack for a long time, they will retreat. "The old guy is going to sacrifice us to buy time!" "Tiberius cursed. "Doyus said: "Your Majesty is right. If our army can persist, we will kill the Qin army in large numbers." The Qin army will retreat. After all, the Qin army has recovered all the lost ground. " No matter what, Tiberius is in the city. He can only bite the bullet and hope that the army will boost morale, saying that the reinforcements of the triumphant emperor will arrive soon. If they can support the most difficult moment, we can usher in the great victory. Counterattack. When Severus left, he left most of the supplies in Babylon, which shows that the triumphant emperor paid attention to the uninformed Roman soldiers.Wipe your hands and defend the country to the death.
