Back to the Warring States Period as Zhao Kuo

Lu, and then watched the expedition fleet surround the city of Rome.

The siege this time also shocked the top management of the Roman Republic.

In the Senate of Rome, a high-level meeting was urgently held.

A Roman senator shouted loudly: "Rome is dead! The Carthaginians have already fought in front of us. Doesn't this mean that Rome's fate ends here?"

The elder was immediately reprimanded by his colleagues and almost killed on the spot.

Another Roman elder said angrily: "We must resist. We still have many troops in various parts of the Republic. As long as we can hold on for a while, then

We will be able to push back the Carthaginians.At that time, the time for our Roman Republic's counterattack will come! "

The words of this Roman senator were supported by many other senators, so soon, a general was elected as the Roman guard, responsible for commanding all the Romans in the city.

The army came to defend the battle.

The Romans were not fully prepared, but they still organized an army of 2 people.

For the Romans, [-] versus [-] did not seem to be a very disparate battle, not to mention that the Carthaginians on the opposite side were defeated by Rome.

It's okay to rely on the great Han Dynasty to come to the fox to pretend to be the tiger.

This kind of thinking will soon be proved to be extremely stupid.

Still follow the same way as when conquering the city of Messina, surround the city on the first day, clean the moat on the second day, pile up explosives on the third day, and then blast directly.

Thanks to the extremely backward communication methods in this era, how the city of Messina was conquered is unknown to the city of Rome, so when Wang Jian simply copied and pasted

When the war progressed, the Romans were still defenseless.

With a loud bang, the walls of the city of Rome collapsed directly.

Although he had been mentally prepared for a long time, Hamilka couldn't help but trembled with excitement when watching this scene.

"Your Majesty, we have conquered the city of Rome, the capital of the Roman Republic!"

Zhao Qian laughed, nodded and said, "Yes, we won!"

For Zhao Qian, the victory this time was more or less mediocre.

Of course the Han Kingdom will be the winner, this is completely indisputable, isn't it?

As for Wang Jian on the other side, he also showed a happy smile after watching this scene.

After so many years of war, Wang Jian and Xiang Yan have become close friends.

But there are also comparisons between best friends, Wang Jian is not willing to let Xiang Yan steal all the limelight, this time breaking the city of Rome is Wang Jian's achievement!

After the city wall was blasted, Carthage's army entered the city. There was a fierce battle, and there was even a stalemate.

So Zhao Qian waved his hand, and then dispatched musketeers into the city.

After the musketeers entered the city, accompanied by the sound of dense muskets, the whole situation was finally changed completely.

After a whole day and night of fierce fighting, the city of Rome completely lost all resistance.

The Han Dynasty also officially announced that it had occupied the city of Rome. Except for some of the elders who died in battle, most of the Roman elders became prisoners.

For these captives, Zhao Qian was naturally unceremonious, and directly sent them to the Western Regions.

Why is it still the Western Regions?Of course it's because of the distance in the Western Regions!

After the news of the capture of the city of Rome spread, the entire Roman Republic fell apart in an instant.

Although some Roman local officials and generals wanted to try to save the country, all of this seemed so ridiculous in front of the Musketeers of the Han Dynasty.

Just half a month after Rome was captured, Xiang Yan also led an army of [-] into the territory of the Roman Republic from the northeast of Apennines.

A month later, the two sides successfully met.

One and a half months later, the entire territory of the Apennine Peninsula was conquered, and the last general of the Roman Republic chose to surrender. This country, which should have been strong in history, was just like that

It was easily killed by the Han Dynasty, and it has become a part of history forever.

Zhao Qian was so excited that he wrote a memorial on the spot and asked someone to send it back to Zhao Kuo.

He wants to let his father know that he can also open up the territory for the Great Han!

Chapter 1313 Conquest of Gaul, Great Britain and the Germans

Just as Zhao Qian's memorial was sent away, he returned to the city of Rome and held a meeting.

Originally, Zhao Qian's plan was actually very simple. It was about how to stabilize the local situation, how to set up institutions, and how to coordinate the interests of Carthage and Han.

However, it was also at this meeting that Xiang Yan and Wang Jian jointly put forward a proposal that made it difficult for Zhao Qian to calm down.

Pointing to the map, Wang Jian said to Zhao Qian, "Please look, Your Highness, to the north of the Apennine Peninsula is a mountain range called the Alps by the locals.

Although this mountain range is far behind the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and the Tianshan Kunlun Mountains in our Han Dynasty, it does have its role.

In the northwest of the mountain, there are some tribal races collectively called "Gaul", and on the north side of this mountain are some tribal peoples called "Germanic".

According to the confessions of these Romans, they have long known that the north side of the Alps has rich plains and forests. Why don't we cross the Alps and conquer these Gauls and Germans? "

Zhao Qian's eyes widened: "Will there be a war?"

After only a few seconds, Zhao Qian pinched his chin again: "It seems that it is not impossible."

For Zhao Qian, after this war of conquest, some parts of his inner thoughts also changed unconsciously.

Originally, although Zhao Qian said that he had also experienced something like the Korean War, after all, North Korea was still part of the Shang Dynasty, so the war with North Korea was an internal struggle of the Chinese Ming Dynasty, and it was not so intense.

But it is different now. This time the war with the Roman Republic is definitely a war of conquest by the Chinese nation against foreign nations, and it is also the first time Zhao Qian has participated in such a war.

Judging from the results, Zhao Qian actually enjoyed this kind of war very much, and he was very eager to conquer another alien race to prove his martial arts skills.

After learning about Xiang Yan and Wang Jian's proposal, many Carthage elders also expressed their agreement.

"If His Majesty really wants to conquer Gaul, we are willing to do our best."

"There is also a place called Spain to the southwest of the blast furnace. There are also many barbarians there, and it is also a very suitable target for conquest."

The Carthaginians are a country that attaches great importance to commercial trade, and their trade targets are all over the Mediterranean, so they also know something about the peoples of all sizes along the Mediterranean.

In history, if it hadn't been for the emergence of the Great Han Kingdom that changed the entire history, the Carthaginians would have sent Hamilcar to Spain to establish a new governorship there.

Then, more than 20 years later, Hamilcar's son, the famous Hannibal, will use the Spanish Viceroyalty as his base to launch a very fierce war against the Romans.

It's just that all of this will not happen now. Although Hannibal has been born, he has become an out-and-out Chinese from Hannibal in his infancy.

In the future, Hannibal may still be able to make very good achievements, but they are all done in the name of the Han people. Considering the tragic ending of Hannibal's death in history, this may not be a bad thing.

After getting almost unanimous affirmation from everyone, Zhao Qian still didn't make up his mind immediately. For him, he didn't think it was necessary to attack immediately, but had to wait for a while.

On the one hand, Zhao Qian needs to report to Zhao Kuo the process of the demise of Rome, on the other hand, he also needs to report to Zhao Kuo the plan to continue to conquer other parts of Europe.

After all, things have developed to the present, and the order given to Zhao Qian by Zhao Kuo is completely different. Zhao Qian still has a lot in his heart. He feels that even if he is the crown prince, he cannot be so unscrupulous Do as you please.

So Zhao Qian quickly determined the rules of conduct for the Han and Carthage armies in the next few months.

Most of the soldiers of the Carthaginian army were repatriated to the city of Carthage, leaving only 1 soldiers, who continued to help the Han Dynasty maintain order in the city of Rome.

The reason for this is that Xiang Yan has brought almost 3 soldiers and horses, why 3?

This is mainly because Xiang Yan occupied a large amount of land along the way, and troops were needed to maintain order there.

In addition, the Han Kingdom also captured a large number of surrendered troops from Rome in this war.

After discussing with Wang Jian and Xiang Yan, Zhao Qian believed that the combat effectiveness of these Roman soldiers was definitely stronger than that of the Carthaginians, otherwise it would have been impossible to defeat Carthage in the previous war.

Therefore, it is a very wasteful thing to turn all these Roman soldiers into slaves. These Roman soldiers should continue to deal with other ethnic groups such as the Han Kingdom to conquer Gaul and Japanese people.

Under the guidance of such a policy, the Great Han Kingdom successfully armed more than 5 strong Roman troops. They will accept the guidance of the Great Han Kingdom and launch an attack on the blast furnace area as a vanguard force in the coming year.

For the Romans, this is actually a very happy result. After all, now that Rome has been conquered by the Han Dynasty, these Romans are of course thinking about how to give their allegiance to the new master to gain their own status in the Han Dynasty. A way out of the country.

Now that there is a way out to attack Gaul, the Romans are all overjoyed, full of energy, and want to contribute to the next process of conquering Gaul.

More than three months have passed, and Zhao Qian finally received a reply from the imperial capital.

This letter is actually a letter of appointment, which appointed the crown prince of the Han Dynasty, Zhao Qian, as the commander-in-chief of the western part of the Han Dynasty, Wang Jian and Xiang Yan as the deputy commander-in-chief, and Zhao Zheng, as the general intelligence officer, to assist Zhao Qian in the investigation. The Gaul region, the Spanish region, as well as the Germanic and Celtic regions were conquered.

Although Zhao Kuo didn't say anything else, just from this appointment alone, it can be known that Zhao Kuo absolutely supports the plan of Zhao Qian and others.

After Zhao Qian got this appointment, he was completely relieved, so he began to gather with Wang Jian and Xiang Yan to discuss how to conquer the Gaul region.

In a flash of time, a winter has passed.

In the spring of the second year, Zhao Qian formally led a total of 2 troops, set off from the city of Rome in a mighty manner, went north along the Apennine Peninsula, crossed the westernmost corner of the Alps, and officially entered the Gaul region. Many tribes in the area waged conquest campaigns.

As the vanguard of the entire army, the Roman army also erupted with a very powerful force in this war. Although they only had some equipment and weapons from Rome before, these equipment and weapons were even for Gaul. Humans are more advanced.

Not only that, many generals of the Han Dynasty are now the commanders of these Roman armies. Although the Roman army in history was indeed a very powerful army, the generals of the Han Dynasty, they have been trained by Zhao Kuo and have The level of students taught by Zhao Kuo, the most powerful military theory commander since the birth of the earth, naturally far surpassed these Romans.

Therefore, under the command of the generals of the Han Dynasty, the Roman soldiers broke out with stronger combat effectiveness than before. It can be said that they were invincible, and they directly occupied 13 Gaul in just one month.

At this time, some minor disagreements began to arise within the top ranks of the Han army.

This disagreement is actually very simple, that is, the army of the Han Dynasty is now facing a problem in the route of march.

If you want to go southwest, you will continue to cross the Pyrenees to the Spanish peninsula.

If you don't go to the southwest but go to the north, you will go to the northern part of Gaul, and you can go further across the strait to the British region.

Wang Jian felt that it would be safer to attack Spain at this time.

However, Xiang Yan's opinion was exactly the opposite of Wang Jian's. He still felt that the entire Gaul should be conquered according to the original plan, and then the troops should be divided to occupy Great Britain and defeat the Germans.

Looking at the argument between the two generals in front of him, Zhao Qian thought deeply, and then asked a question.

"Can't we split into two groups at the same time?

You must know that we have a full 10 troops under our command. "

After hearing Zhao Qian's words, Wang Jian and Xiang Yan fell into silence for a while.

They really haven't thought about this possibility.

Soon Zhao Qian made a decision. He and Wang Jian led the 5 army to turn southwest and cross the Pyrenees to conquer Spain.

As for Xiang Yan, this general will lead the remaining 5 troops to continue to conquer the remaining 23 Gauls, and then wait there for Zhao Qian to join him after his victory, and then fight against the Rhine. The Germans and the Celts above Great Britain attacked.

After the decision to divide the troops was made, everyone naturally stopped arguing and were all happy.

Zhao Qian led the army and was invincible all the way. The Gauls were no match for the Musketeers at all, not to mention that in many cases, the Musketeers didn't even need to be dispatched. The Romans only needed to charge and attack the Gauls. completely defeated.

After just 10 days, they saw the Pyrenees.

This mountain range is actually not as steep as the Alps, but, in this era, it can also serve as a very useful line of defense.

Just when Zhao Qian was leading the army to cross this mountain range, they accidentally ran into a pass.

This pass is actually made of stone, and there are many soldiers patrolling back and forth above the pass, but, judging from the leather armor made of animal fur on these soldiers, it is obvious that the The so-called regime is not a very advanced civilization.

After Zhao Qian thought for a while, he asked his side.

"Can someone talk to these guys?"

Originally, he didn't have any hope, but what he didn't expect was that there were actually people who could communicate with these guys.

Needless to say, the ones who can communicate with these people are of course the Carthaginians. Whoever let the Carthaginians do business has been able to reach the entire Mediterranean Sea.

After some exchanges, the Carthage translator answered Zhao Qian respectfully.

"Your Majesty, they said that this is their country, let us leave quickly, otherwise they will attack us."

Zhao Qian also burst out laughing after hearing this sentence, he suddenly felt that the previous communication seemed somewhat redundant.

"Let's launch an attack. Before dark, we have to break through here and enter the other side of the mountain range."

Of course, Zhao Qian's order was obtained immediately, and it was carried out very resolutely. The Roman soldiers rushed up bravely, and then put the explosive packs together. After that, they only need to detonate, and they can watch these local indigenous soldiers dancing. were blown into the sky.

With explosives, the offensive method of the Han army is so unpretentious and boring.

Later that day, Zhao Qian got his wish and entered the pass. He thought this place was very good, so he ordered the natives who had just been captured to rebuild it.

In this case, it will become a good place to collect taxes in the future.

After Wang Jian heard Zhao Qian's reason, his expression didn't collapse all of a sudden.

"I thought His Royal Highness wanted to strengthen the guard here, but I didn't expect to increase taxes."

After Zhao Qian only heard Wang Jian's words, he laughed out loud and answered very seriously.

"For our Han Kingdom, passive defense is always the most stupid thing.
