    After the officials at the execution office gave another positive hint, Ganassis's evaluation of the Han Empire and Li Jue became much higher. Although Ganassis's evaluation of the two was already very high before, it has become even more high now.  Taller.  This kind of high status is more of respect for moral quality. After all, Li Jue's performance largely represents the attitude and face of a country. Although I don't understand the title system of the Han Dynasty, a marquis is also a high noble after all.  "Forget it, let's not mention these things. They have already happened and there is nothing I can do about it. I hope the country will not cause trouble for me. Let's talk about some happy things. Do you have any fun over there? Tell me and let me enjoy it.  Haha." Li Jue probably felt a little uncomfortable talking about these things, so he decisively changed the subject after mentioning a few words.  "What kind of fun is there" Ganassis thought for a while, "Speaking of it, I haven't had much fun in the battlefield recently. If I really want to talk about fun, the fight between you and Anxi is the biggest fun I have heard recently. Others  It's really no fun." Li Jue almost spat out the wine when he heard this, rolled his eyes at Ganassis, and put down the glass again, "I won't say anything else. The dispute between Anxi and us has come out.  I'm afraid it will no longer be possible to fight side by side as before. "Actually, we don't understand why you are fighting for Anxi. Is the land east of the Caspian Sea given to you worth so much?" Ganassi?  Si saw Li Jue talking, so he asked with curiosity.  "That's one aspect, and another aspect. In fact, we signed a covenant with Anxi about hundreds of years ago. After that, the covenant was broken up. When I came to the Western Region, my predecessor didn't care about these things. I happened to meet him that time.  When I arrived, I signed the contract with the other party again," Li Jue said with a sigh, remembering what happened at the beginning.  The generosity of Vologis V really impressed Li Jue. In addition, the Xiliang cavalry needed a battlefield, so Li Jue slipped away. However, he did not expect that Rome would be so strong at the time.  The latter step was a bit difficult, and the land delivered by Vologis V in advance really impressed the Han Dynasty. They went up with the idea of ????half as a test and half as a practice. In the end, Rome was almost killed. Of course, this was a close call.  .  Precisely because of the near miss, Rome gave extremely high praise to the younger generation of the Han Dynasty.  "This way I can understand. I said you are not like this. The wasteland that Vologis gave you should not make you work so hard. It turns out that you had an alliance before." Ganasis heard  Yan nodded, finally understanding the Han Dynasty.  "The covenant was made hundreds of years ago, but I renewed it conveniently." Li Jue turned his head and said while looking aside. In fact, Li Jue was just smiling if he made a covenant or not. In the Battle of the Two Rivers, it was so important for the Han Dynasty to be so active.  The reason is that more than one million square kilometers of land.  Although the area to the west of the Caspian Sea is not very good, there is still a large area that can be used for farming. As for the other areas, they are all relatively good pastures. You can get so much by helping out in a fight. According to the Han family's custom, for this reason  A fight is not unacceptable.  "Although I haven't contacted His Majesty about the relevant conditions, I estimate that the situation will not change. We will form an alliance and divide it into two parts. You will take the east of Media, the west of the Zagros Mountains will be ours, and the Zagros Mountains to Midea will be ours.  Dia can be used as a buffer zone for condominiums," Ganassis said calmly, as sincerely as ever.  It is impossible for Rome to cross Zagros to occupy land. This is a fact that a high-ranking Roman official knows quite well.  The legs of the Romans are very short, so Rome has never had the idea of ??occupying all of Parthia from the beginning. Besides, after occupying all of the Mediterranean, life is already very good. Except for the lower proportion of citizens, everything else is quite good.  Yes, the Mediterranean climate is very suitable for survival.  Therefore, regarding the disposal of Parthia, Rome¡¯s decision from the beginning was to wash it until it was bare, take away everything that could be taken away, and leave the land that could not be moved.  Of course, in order to prevent troublesome things like Persia and Parthia from growing here again, the Romans thought it would be better to introduce some other races.  At least this way, there will be all kinds of messy conflicts in this place for a long time, so that it is impossible to grow an empire that can threaten Rome.  Anyway, the Roman Empire was short-legged, and it was unlikely that it would really run across the Zagros Mountains to rule. To be honest, being able to occupy the two river basins and farm with peace of mind was considered a good rule by Rome.  In fact, if the two river basins were not too fertile, and the Parthian Empire was always stalking and raising prices on silk, which made Rome sick to its stomach, Rome would not have made up its mind to kill this country and let everyone  The land of the entire empire went to grass.  Now if we can introduce the Han Empire?At least Ganassis thought it was good, because the Han Empire was far enough away. Just like Rome, it would be somewhat powerless after reaching out. In this way, the two sides could not conflict, but they could also suppress this area and prevent other things from growing.  A strange country.  Of course, there is also the ultra-long-distance border with the Han Dynasty. Without middlemen, the price of silk will plummet. Besides, it is not easy to destroy an empire. In the end, due to the problem of the limit of rule, the long grass was left uncultivated, and finally it was occupied by the locals.  It's embarrassing for Rome to have a problem.  In this case, it may be better to give it to a potential ally who will not cause trouble for you. It is not your own thing anyway, so you don¡¯t feel bad if you lose it. The Romans are so realistic.  To be honest, this is also a problem that arose in history after Severus destroyed Parthia.  Conquering Parthia is indeed not a problem for Severus, who represents the pinnacle of Roman military affairs. To be precise, in terms of the strength of his troops and the scale of his military strength, Severus should be able to win both Parthia.  But the problem is that after Severus killed Parthia, due to the shortness of Rome's legs, the newly conquered Parthia territory was unable to be ruled. This was the rise of Ardashir later.  Speaking of which, it is not that no one could see the fact that Rome could not capture even Parthia. It was just that at that time, Severus and the upstarts promoted by Severus needed military merit, and on the other hand, the powerful military power that had overdrawn the national finances needed a target.  , similarly the operation of the country also requires a large amount of fiscal revenue.  In the end, knowing that Parthia could not be conquered even if it was defeated, Severus still decisively destroyed Parthia. Relying on the wealth accumulated by Parthia for hundreds of years, Rome's almost illegal and powerful military strength was able to be maintained for more than ten years.  With the strength of thirty-three regular legions, even in the classical era, not counting auxiliaries but only regular armies, few countries had such military strength. This was Rome at that time.  Now at least there is still a subordinate. Regardless of whether the Han Dynasty agrees to the covenant, Rome will eventually lose millions of square kilometers of land east of Media to the Han Dynasty.  At most, after forming an alliance, the two parties will negotiate on this, and Rome will recognize the delivery matter and make it part of the covenant to consolidate the friendship between the two parties.  If there was no alliance and the Han Dynasty secretly occupied this place in the end, the Romans would turn a blind eye, but relatively speaking, there would be some legal and moral problems, but these are just comments about the empire.  "East of Media." Li Jue sighed after hearing this. Rome is still so grand. Li Yuan handed over to the three generals of Xiliang. Even if the road to the Han Dynasty was built, the concept of enfeoffment of the Han Empire to the outside world was completed.  , the position of Media has basically reached the limit of its dominance.  Further to the west, it is the type that can be defeated, and once occupied, it is very likely to be thrown away as useless, or like the Han and Tang Dynasties, when it is strong, it relies on deterrence, randomly stationing a legion, and surpassing the extreme wall of the empire.  The position can still be occupied, but when it is weak, forget it. Without the support of the empire behind it, it will be nonsense.  Chen Xi wants to build a cultural circle, prosper the entire cultural circle, and reach the point where people from all over the world are attracted by it. Naturally, he must build it according to local specifications. In other words, since he has occupied it, he must build a city just like in the country.  , when it¡¯s time to build roads, when it¡¯s time to build roads, and when it¡¯s time to plan for water conservancy, plan for water conservancy.  This means that if he passes to the east of Media and exceeds the limit of rule, Chen Xi will basically not do this. The same is true for Sizhao City. If he passes to the west of the Ural Mountains, the Han Dynasty will never vote.  Any money, even if it is a loan, must be physically pledged.  The reason is very simple. If you invest there, if you can't occupy it, everything will be in vain, and it will also give the enemy an advantage. Therefore, Media is almost the bottom line of Chen Xi's psychological endurance. Of course, from the center line of Media to the Zagros Mountains  There are more than one million square kilometers of land.  Even based on Chen Xi's knowledge of some of the weird families of the Han Dynasty, maybe after being enfeoffed there, he found that this place was prone to poor mountains and rivers, and he would most likely row from the Persian Gulf to the Arabian Peninsula to see what was beyond the rule of the Han Dynasty.  What is the area within the scope like, and then try to touch the high-quality land outside the scope.  Even some families with the ability to build ships will most likely run away from the Persian Gulf and even reach Africa. Such families are definitely not a minority. When the time comes, the sky is high and the emperor is far away.  Whoever invests money is mentally retarded.  In short, Chen Xi has implemented a one-size-fits-all approach in this aspect for the first time, using Midea as the dividing line. After this point, whoever wants to invest in construction can¡¯t even borrow a penny from him. Road construction is all done by oneself.  Invest money in repairing it.  To the east of Midea, whether it is infrastructure construction, other business circles, or alliances, Chen Xi will provide a certain amount of material supplies.??, and even certain policies.  So when Rome mentioned Media, Li Jue immediately felt that Rome was still as sincere as before, and millions of square kilometers of land were given to them as soon as they were promised.  "You are still as generous as before." Li Jue said with emotion.  "It depends on who you are communicating with. There is no point in going around in circles with you, are you right?" Ganassis said with a smile. If Li Jue doesn't fool him, he won't fool Li Jue.  Li Jue nodded when he heard this. People from Xiliang didn't like to talk around in circles. It was a simple matter. There was no need to make both parties unhappy. If it is, it is, if it is not, it is not. If you have something to say, say it directly. Say it quickly.  Hurry up and save everyone the trouble.  "It can be seen that you are already thinking about whether to form an alliance." Ganassis looked at Li Jue's expression and said with determination.  "In this situation, it's normal for me to think about your sincerity. Speaking of which, if it were just me, I would have nodded now, but not this time." Li Jue looked at Ganassis and said bluntly,  The other party has given enough face, and he is willing to give up.  "Haha, brother, you are indeed an honest person." Ganassis laughed immediately when he heard what Li Jue said. This time, even if he didn't ask the officials at the execution office, he knew that Li Jue was telling the truth.  "What an honest person? I just feel that you have even handed over your trump card, so I shouldn't have any cover-up." Li Jue curled his lips and made a wild look, "I don't like to beat around the bush, I am a military commander, and I don't like those  "Similar to me, the people in the Senate insist on trying things one by one, which is meaningless. They have to go around in circles to talk about things that were originally simple." Ganassis nodded in agreement after hearing this.  When he became the Duke, he still maintained the style of many warriors.  "So we have to listen to their orders." Li Jue said with a wanton smile. They don't have much brains and are not willing to use their brains. After all, there is one person who can handle everything.  "Yes, you have to listen to their instructions, but that's fine. Knowing your own shortcomings and letting others make up for them is the way a group operates." Ganassis came over and sat down with Li Jue, filling the two of them with wine.  He said, "Marquis Chiyang, how do you know your background?" "What background?" Li Jue looked at the solemn-looking Ganassis with a wine glass, and his expression returned to solemnity. He and Ganassis were personal friends, and state affairs were state affairs after all.  "What do you think is the chance that our covenant will come true?" Ganassis looked at Li Jue and asked, "We in Rome are very sincere. See what you mean. In fact, you are not exclusive to us, and you can also act as a  Representative of the Han Empire, what do you think is the possibility of this matter? Neither of us are envoys, so there is no need for those misleading words. " "Ganasis, you know that the covenant between us is limited.  Are you having trouble getting through somewhere?" Li Jue sighed after hearing this.  "I don't know." Ganassis shook his head, knowing that he would definitely find a way to clear it up now.  "I'm stuck here. I renewed my contract with An Anxi." Li Jue said helplessly. "It's not time to cancel it yet. Although I have been seriously shaken by what happened this time and want to cancel it,  After all, if it is not lifted, it will be a thorn, but thinking about it, it is better to lift it. Legally and morally, it is better. "
