I am the son of Cao thief, start the awakening of the tyrant system

A river flows slowly from north to south.

Here is the Tigris River that gave birth to the civilization of Central Asia.

However, on the fertile plain formed by the alluvial on both sides, except for various crops, there are no farming civilians.

There is only one army that can't see the edge, and it is marching.

Not bad.

This army is the Eastern Allied Army led by Cao Mao himself.

Cao Mao got off his horse and led Jin Lin to the bank to drink water.

Looking at the scenery on the other side of the river, he turned his head and asked casually,

"Assis, how is the advance of the army?"

"Report to Your Majesty."

Yasis stepped forward quickly and said respectfully,
"The supply battalion has built a pontoon bridge, and the vanguard army led by General Zhang Bao is crossing the river."

After killing Yihuus and driving Juliet away, Cao Mao did not hesitate to order an attack on the Romans.

Most of the troops under Assis have come back for refuge.

The combat power is broken, there is no morale, and there is no loyalty at all.

Leading them to the battlefield will only become a burden.

Therefore, when Cao Mao launched a war against Rome this time, the army he carried was mainly the army of the [-] Dragon Kingdom, supplemented by the [-] troops of Guishuang, Tianzhu, Khwarazmo and other countries.

After completing the preparations, Cao Mao brazenly led the army to cross the Tigris River from the ferry near Nineveh and enter the territory of the Roman Empire.

While Cao Mao was talking with Yasis, a cavalryman hurried over,

"His Majesty!"

He got off his horse and saluted Cao Mao.
"General Zhang sent me to report to Your Majesty that the movement of the Roman Legion has been spotted ahead!"

"Oh? Where?"

Cao Mao asked softly.

The cavalry quickly took out the map from his waist and spread it on the ground.

"Report to His Majesty, right here."

The direction of his finger is Nisibis in the northwest of the Tigris River.

"It looks like the Romans are planning to make war on us too."

Cao Mao sneered and said to Yasis and Zhao Yun,

"Pass down the order and order the army to immediately advance to Nisibis along the main road northwest of Abela!"

"Here!"

The two lead the way!

……

the other side.

In the camp of the Roman legions on the great plain of Nisibis.

The Roman general Dianian, dressed in military uniform, was listening to the replies of the scouts with a solemn expression on his face.
"...The Eastern Allied Forces headed by the Dragon Kingdom Army are crossing the Tigris River and heading deep into our territory!"

"Understood, you go down first."

Dianian waved his hand.

After the scouts retreated, a Roman officer couldn't help saying,

"Lord Dianian, these eastern barbarian troops have not yet fully crossed the river. We can seize the opportunity for them to cross the river and deal them a heavy blow!"

Dianian glanced at him and said calmly,

"Wavi, these orientals are not barbarians. You have to know that the most popular silk among the imperial people is made by the Chinese."

He paused, then continued,

"We received a military order from His Majesty to cross the Tigris River and establish a frontline position."

"But now that the Eastern Army is taking the first step and crossing the river, we must change our plan!"

After Caracalla issued the military order, [-] troops gathered in Nisibis.

Dianian originally planned to leave in the next few days, and according to the emperor's order, establish a front-line position east of the Tigris River to plan for the next eastern expedition.

It's just that he didn't expect that the Eastern Allied Forces would be so quick.

This disrupted his original plan.

And according to the scouts, the Eastern Allied Army has at least 15 troops, and the Romans are at a disadvantage in terms of strength!

"I decided to stick to this place and wait for His Majesty to arrive. What do you mean?"

Diani said in a low voice.

Before the arrival of the emperor Caracalla, Dianian was the supreme commander of the Roman legions.

Regarding his words, all the officers had no objection, and they all nodded in agreement.

"That's good!"

Dianian nodded and ordered,

"Pass down the order and step up your guard!"

……

It's just that Dianian is so cautious about the Eastern Allied Forces headed by the Dragon Empire, but the Romans underneath may not be so.

After all, not long ago, Caracalla commanded them to attack the Parthian Empire.

The Parthian Empire, which was in the midst of civil strife, had no time to react, and was captured by the powerful Roman Empire, Adiabeni and Atropathene Media.

The Romans burned, killed and looted all the way, and even tore up the tomb of the Parthian royal family near Abbet.

Under such circumstances, how could the Romans put the Orientals, who were regarded as barbarians, in their eyes?
Gates of the Roman Imperial Barracks.

Teams of Roman soldiers are crossing their shoulders, carrying buckets, and fetching water from the river not far away.

"Hey, have you heard that there is an eastern country called Shenlong who has prepared an army to attack us."

"What kind of bullshit dragon is vulnerable to the great Roman Empire!"

"I want to correct you, in front of the great Roman Emperor!"

The Romans suddenly let out a burst of laughter.

It can be seen that they are all in a good mood, and they don't take the upcoming war with the Eastern Allied Forces to heart.

Soon they came to the banks of the Migdonius.

This is a tributary of the Habur River, and the water is not too deep.

After the Romans took the water, they did not leave in a hurry.

The weather was very hot, so they simply took off their armor, jumped into the river, and enjoyed a rare leisure time.

However, what the Romans didn't know was that in the dense forest not far away, a pair of icy eyes were staring at them.

"General, shall we attack?"

A lieutenant asked in a low voice.

"How can such a good opportunity be missed?"

Zhang Bao couldn't help but licked his tongue, with an excited and cruel smile on his face.

He was appointed as the vanguard general by Cao Mao, and led the former army to Nisibis one step ahead.

But I didn't expect to encounter Roman soldiers who fetched water here.

Zhang Bao clenched the spear in his hand and growled,

"Give me the order to attack the Romans!"

"Here!"

All the soldiers took orders with a bang.

A Roman soldier who was bathing in the river suddenly felt that the ground seemed to be shaking faintly, as if a cavalry was galloping towards this side!

He raised his head instinctively, and then his face changed wildly,

"There are enemy troops!"

All the Romans by the river were stunned and looked into the distance!
On the plain not far away, a cavalry brigade is rushing here!

Although the Roman soldiers couldn't understand the content on their flags, they could tell from their armor that this team of cavalry was the enemy!
After a brief moment of stupefaction, I don't know who called out first,
"run!"

A group of Roman soldiers swam ashore from the river in a panic, wearing their armor in a hurry!

Some people didn't even wear armor, so they fled towards the barracks.
