Text Chapter 1,278 Changes in the Far West

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    When the disputes in the Central Plains resumed, changes also occurred in the Western Regions. The Roman envoys finally arrived in the Western Regions, and the translation team Li Jue pieced together from Wusun, Cheshi and other places began to travel under the leadership of An Yue and Wu Xi.  Silk Road to the Han Dynasty.

    At this time, Li Jue was under great pressure. He had less than 3,000 troops. Although Li You had rushed to send a reply to Li Jue, if the troops were not in place, Li Jue would be an empty shell.

    If he didn¡¯t feel it when he fought, now looking back on Li Jue, he can only say that he was in a cold sweat, because that battle was so thrilling. Even based on Li Jue¡¯s experience, he looked back at the legions in the Central Plains who had fought against him.  A feeling that only a handful of people can withstand the ten waves of arrows facing the battle!

    If it weren¡¯t for the fact that the Xiliang Iron Cavalry was famous for its defensive power and impact, those ten waves of arrows would have been enough to kill most of the soldiers.

    Therefore, Li Jue was vaguely afraid of Da Qin. Da Qin's soldier quality and organizational power may be relatively better than those of the Han Dynasty. If the soldiers came, they would basically be killed. To fight against an opponent of this level, at least they must be elite.  !

    Similarly, after Ganassis returned to his territory, he thought more and more deeply, and felt that he could not explain clearly in the letter, so he took his deputy to Rome. As a border Duke, although his strength is not the strongest,  But as a duke, his political leanings are enough to influence many people!

    If the upper echelons of Rome were still waffling because there were no enemies, and they were still torn apart because of the successive deaths of Commodus and Perdinax and the accession of Severus to the throne, then Rome must not continue to waffle now.

    In this world, there is not only one Anxi, which has been at war with the Romans for more than a hundred years, but there is also a broader empire behind Anxi. It was only spread in legends before. It is not known whether it is powerful or not, but now after the fight, it is enough to make the world more powerful.  The feared empire!

    Such important news must be known to all the higher-ups.  Not to mention the other empires, the quality and combat effectiveness they had shown before were enough to make all Romans wary.

    Of course, it was not that the Romans had no exchanges with the Han Dynasty. Looking through the classics, Ganassis found a record of the emperor Marcus Aurelius sending envoys to the Han Dynasty thirty years ago.

    But it was of no use, even though the envoy returned successfully.  But no one from top to bottom took it seriously. After all, the Han Dynasty was too far away.  And the envoy didn't bring back any important news, just some gifts.

    Therefore, everyone did not take it to heart, but this time it was different. He, the Duke of Roman Border County, Ganassis, led his army to conquer Parthia, and faced off against the cavalry led by the Han Dynasty Marquis of Chiyang Li Jue.  Excluding the hired archers, both sides lost three to one!

    This level of fighting is enough for the Roman upper class to understand that the distant empire that has been circulated in myths and legends has arrived. Their opponent in Rome is no longer the Parthia that they have almost killed, but the legend.  The golden land of silk in China!

    "Duke Ganassis, how did you return to Rome from Mesopotamia?" Ganasis rushed back to Rome with his deputies at top speed. The tribune of the Roman capital was shocked when he saw the Duke of the border county.  .

    "There are important matters that need to be discussed with the Parliament." Ganassis said indifferently. If he thought that the split of the Parliament was beneficial to his expansion of power before, then now, as the Duke of Border County.  As the commander-in-chief on the front line of protecting the empire, he really wanted to talk to the parliament.

    ¡° Then, leaving the tribunes alone, Ganassis marched straight to the House.  Before talking to the Parliament, he needed to meet someone, the current Roman Emperor, Severus. If he was a little unhappy with Severus being the emperor before, then now, Rome needs an emperor!

    Not to mention that Li Jue is under great pressure, so is Ganassis. Ganassis, who fought with Li Jue, is also under great pressure now. If Rome falls apart at this time.  The first person to take advantage of the situation is himself, Rome must be unified!

    "Duke Ganassis?" Severus frowned when he saw Ganassis pushing in the door.  He has never felt very good about the border Dukes like Ganassis.  After all, these people don't support him very much.

    "I have met His Majesty." Ganassis bowed slightly.

    "You're welcome. The Duke must have been tired after returning from Mesopotamia." Severus nodded and asked.

    "The Romans need a strong monarch. In my opinion, the current chaotic chamber needs your Majesty to unify it!" Ganassis went straight to the subject and directly stated his purpose, since he was the first to clearly support the new Roman emperor.  Duke of Bianjun, then there is no need to play false.

    Severu¡¯s pupils narrowed suddenly. He originally planned to use Ganassis, the duke who said he was strong or weak, to perform the surgery, and then committed suicide.He personally led an army to defeat Parthia (this is what this guy did) and consolidated his position. I didn't expect Ganassis to be so straightforward!

    "Duke, you want to sue me for something?" Severus was silent for a while and asked. No matter what the reason is, it is very important to be the first Duke of Border Counties to turn to him. Currently, there are only five Dukes of Border Counties in total, and they are all  There are soldiers, food and land.

    Ganassis recounted all the things that had happened in Parthia to Severus. The more Severus listened, the brighter his eyes became. For Rome now, enemies are not a problem. The problem is that there are no enemies!

    For a country, there is nothing more terrifying than invincibility. Once it becomes invincible, there is no other choice but internal fighting. If there were reasons why the Romans were overthrown in the previous life, then for the current Romans  It is said that infighting is the biggest problem.

    Like the Han Dynasty, they were basically invincible. As long as all the countries around them did not exceed the extreme wall of the empire, they were beaten by them. They were the strongest within this radiation range. Basically no one dared to challenge their authority.

    Precisely because of this power, precisely because of this completely worry-free environment, human beings' bad nature broke out, and the Roman Parliament became a place for wrangling.

    "Convene the Senate to conduct a preliminary decision." Severus said to the clerk on the side.

    Even if Severus was the Roman emperor, he would not be able to resolve such a big matter in one fell swoop. He would need to discuss it with all the senators, and then he might even open a popular meeting that had not been held for many years. Of course, this is just a process.  This is just to confirm his authority.

    Of course, if the popular meeting is opened, the other four border county dukes must also come back, which will be absolutely beneficial to his rule. Therefore, after thinking about all this, Severus looked at Ganassis with a lot of satisfaction.  (To be continued.)
