Saqima's actions were beyond everyone's expectations.

Wei Chu did not expect that as soon as he came to the Western Region Protectorate, someone would confess and show leniency in front of him.

Ma Chao and others' faces were as gloomy as water.

If Saqima suddenly did something like this, Wei Chu would definitely feel that Ma Chao and others were derelict in their work.

Mai Dong and others were a little stupid.

Saqima said before that his bones were harder than a strong man's sword, so why did he kneel now?

Could it be that Saqima was an undercover agent planted by Ma Chao?

The purpose of what Saqima said before was to draw people into trouble?

Wei Chu looked at Saqima with interest and asked, "What's your name?"

"My name is Saqima, and I am the king of the Dayuan Kingdom. I was instigated by Mai Dong, the king of Wu Lei Kingdom, and others, so I prepared to cooperate with Kang Ju and the outside world to plot to seize the city."

"Please also ask the governor Mingjian, I am innocent."

Hearing Saqima's words, Mai Dong and others were shocked and quickly knelt on the ground.

As Mai Dong and others knelt on the ground, Han soldiers immediately stepped forward and put their swords on the seven people's necks.

"Kang Juguo?"

Wei Chu raised his eyebrows slightly.

Sure enough, the Kangju people still felt the crisis and planned to be the vanguard for the Romans.

"Tell me carefully, what is your plan? As long as you honestly tell me everything you know, I can consider killing you and not destroying your country."

After Wei Chu finished speaking, Saqima cried and said: "Kang Ju State is about to send an army of more than 5000 people to invade the Western Region Protectorate. Kang Ju State's envoy found me half a month ago and asked me to mobilize the kings of the Western Region countries to When the army of Kangju State arrived at the foot of Qiancheng, they cooperated with Kangjuguo inside and outside to capture Qiancheng."

"In addition, behind Kang Juguo, there is an army of 5 people. This army comes from distant Rome."

Raising his head and glancing at Wei Chu, Saqima swallowed his saliva and continued: "Kangju has formed an alliance with Rome. Kangju's army is responsible for tearing apart its Qiancheng, and the Roman army is responsible for destroying the Han Dynasty."

"To be honest, I was worried that the Han Dynasty would be destroyed, so I betrayed it and settled in Qiancheng."

"ridiculous!"

As soon as Saqima finished speaking, Lu Bu, who was standing behind Wei Chu, couldn't help but said angrily: "A mere 5 people want to destroy the Han Dynasty. Are all Romans fools?"

Wei Chu ignored Lu Bu and continued to ask, "When will the Kangju people invade the Protectorate of the Western Regions? How long will the Romans have to wait to reach the Protectorate of the Western Regions?"

Saqima shook his head quickly.

"I'm really not sure about this. According to what the Kangju envoy said, we only need to create unrest in Qiancheng when the Kangju people attack Qiancheng."

Wei Chu glanced at Saqima again. After confirming that Saqima could no longer provide useful information, Wei Chu turned to Ma Chao and said, "Pull the seven of them down and chop them down."

Soon Saqima and others were dragged away by Han soldiers.

When the cries of Saqima and others disappeared, Ma Teng and Han Sui boldly stepped forward.

"Prefect, we have prepared a banquet in the city, and we would like to invite you..."

Before Ma Teng could finish his words, Wei Chu turned to Gongsun Zan and Lu Bu and asked: "The battle with the Romans is best carried out on the territory of Kang Juguo. I don't want even one Roman to set foot on the territory of the Han Dynasty." Taking advantage of the fact that Kang Ju's country has not yet invaded the Western Region Protector's Mansion. Which one of you two is willing to lead the army and be the first to teach the Kang Ju people a lesson."

As soon as Wei Chu finished speaking, Lu Bu stood up.

"Bingzhou Langqi requested to go to war. We must let the Kangju people have a good look at the Han's military front."

"Baima Yicong requested to go to war. We have more experience fighting foreigners."

Hearing Gongsun Zan's words, Lu Bu couldn't help but sneered, "The people of Kangju are just chickens and dogs. Why do you need experience to fight with them? As long as the governor sends me to Kangju, I can kill King Kangju in half a month at most." The heads will be sent back.”

"Hmph, half a month is too long. If the governor asks Baima Yi to fight, we can chop off King Kangju's head in ten days at most."

"Gongsun Zan, you have already gained a good reputation during your previous Northern Expedition to Xianbei, Wuhuan, and Fuyu. Why are you still competing with me for the opportunity to fight?"

Gongsun Zan reached out and touched the beard on his chin and said: "Xianbei, Wuhuan, and Fuyu, none of them can fight. My soldiers and I are feeling a little uncomfortable right now. Besides, good things like reputation add up. The more, the better.”

Seeing Lu Bu and Gongsun Zan gradually becoming red-faced because of the dispute, Wei Chu couldn't help but waved his hands and said: "Let Lu Bu take the lead in this battle. General Gongsun, please be patient. Our main opponent this time is The Romans. Kang Juguo is just an appetizer."

Gongsun Zan did not dare to disobey Wei Chu's wishes. As Wei Chu finished speaking, Gongsun Zan hugged Wei Chu's fists and obediently closed his mouth.

"The Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry has a day of rest and will set off for Kangju tomorrow."

"Follow me into Qiancheng."

"Queen Jingjue, come to me. Tonight, I want to hear your report on the situation of the countries in the Western Region."

At the same time that Wei Chu led his troops to arrive outside Qian City.

The Roman legions coming all the way from the west crossed the Parthian and Kushan Kingdoms and finally approached the border of Kangju Kingdom.

Roman legion, totaling 5 people.

The main force consists of two legions with a full strength of 6000 men.

Each legion has a total of ten brigades with a battalion captain. There are six centurions in each group, and there are centurions.

It is worth mentioning that the two legions sent by Rome were the Roman Third Legion and the Roman No. 12 Legion.

The former is called the Brave, and the latter is called Thunder.

They were all legions established by Julius Caesar and were the elite of the Roman army.

In addition to the two Roman legions, the remaining 2000 people were all auxiliary troops.

The auxiliaries were soldiers from provinces conquered by Rome.

This time, almost all of the [-] auxiliary troops came from Thrace and Sparta.

Both of these places are famous for being rich in warriors.

Among the 2000 people, there are two cavalry brigades, totaling [-] cavalry. Two archer brigades, with a total of three thousand archers.

The remaining 6000 people include 1000 infantry, and the remaining [-] people serve as technical teams.

The technical team is mainly responsible for controlling projectile weapons such as catapults and crossbows.

In short, the Romans made very full preparations for the Eastern Expedition.

In the eyes of the Romans, a well-disciplined [-]-strong Roman army could conquer the Han Dynasty as easily as it had conquered Egypt and Syria in the past.

Some Roman soldiers even made fun of the battle.

It took one and a half years to march and three months to overthrow the Han Dynasty.

The proud Romans did not take the big man in their eyes at all.
