Conquer all worlds starting from the mythical Three Kingdoms
Chapter 372: Alliance on the Wei River (rest edition) (page 12)
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The transformed Hongtian Lei roared as loudly as the powerful cannonballs of heaven and earth energy hit Anxi's secret art of protecting the country.
"This secret technique is quite good!"
Zhuge Liang's eyes were shining with spiritual power. Relying on the analysis of many spiritual talents, he had mastered the principles of this defensive secret technique.
Even relying on Xu Shu's spiritual talent, he found some loopholes in this secret technique, but it is a big secret technique after all. Even if the loopholes are found, there is no way to cause any substantial crisis without using the lives of soldiers to fill them. .
However, the heavy psychological pressure was transmitted to the dignitaries and people in Ctesiphon through the roaring sound.
The army approaching the city and the roar of artillery fire always make people feel worried, so that the whole Ctesiphon people are panicked, and no one can guarantee victory.
Even Fars Sasan and others were unsure.
To be honest, they wanted to forcibly defend the city at first, but after counting the number of Zhuge Liang's soldiers, they were heartbroken.
There are about troops, all of which are elites. This number is already several times the garrison strength in the city.
They do have a lot of troops on hand, but many of them are not in Ctesiphon.
Even the power of Ardashir and the Kallan family have not yet arrived, and Ctesiphon is really a defenseless place now.
Fars Sasan knew that the defensive secret technique could still withstand attacks of this size, but once the army gathered on the opposite side began to attack the city wall, sooner or later the secret technique and the city wall would be smashed together.
"Damn it, what do they want?"
Fars Sasan was not stupid. He had figured out Zhuge Liang's plan, but he was unwilling to face this fact and planned to delay until reinforcements arrived.
By then they will have a lot of troops, and they will be more confident even in negotiations.
But he didn't know why, but he felt very uneasy. He always felt that he had fallen into the trap woven by Zhuge Liang. If he was not careful, he might become a shameful person who was forced to subjugate his country just after usurping the throne.
"Report, Your Majesty, there is news from the Esfander Yar family. They were ambushed by the Xinghan army. Their opponent is the Xiliang Iron Cavalry that they have seen before. They can only hold them back, and they may not be able to reach Ctesiphon!"
The news of the messenger was like a thunderbolt, and Fars Sasan suddenly understood why Zhuge Liang only besieged but did not attack.
At first, he thought that Zhuge Liang, like Ganassis, was just trying to fight the autumn wind, so he planned to delay it. It was best to compensate him when the situation was evenly matched, at least to buy time, and then stabilize the country.
But now he is really panicking and gathering around to call for reinforcements. He has realized the crisis.
In his eyes, Zhuge Liang's ambition may not only be Ctesiphon, but what he wants is the entire rest of peace.
It is even possible that the Mihlan family and the Zeke family have secretly reached an agreement with Zhuge Liang.
If he can usurp the throne, then how can the Mihlan family and the Zeke family have no ambitions.
No one knows what is hidden under the calmness. It seems that he can use the reputation accumulated by his family for an opportunity to severely damage the Sullun family and the royal family.
Will the Mihlan and Zeke families do the same?
The monarch of Mesopotamia was a brother of Vogelges V, and the monarch of Mesopotamia still fell to Rome.
In the face of interests, family ties may not be really strong, let alone other forms of ties.
Fars Sasan's heart felt heavy.
"Report, Your Majesty, there is news from the Milan family that they are surrounded by the Xinghan army, and their opponent is the military soul army of the Xinghan army!"
"Report, Your Majesty, there is news from the Karan family that they are besieged by Xinghan army spirits and cannot arrive as scheduled!"
Fars Sasan's heart fell into an abyss. If they were one family, it might just be a coincidence, but if so many families came together, it was completely the other party's plan.
Only then did he wake up to how serious the other party's penetration of An An was.
A piece of loose sand, the great nobles who have not yet been united are completely the chess pieces given by the other party on the chessboard, and they act according to the other party's wishes.
If they were really allowed to gather their strength together and assemble the power of the Imperial Guard, the Army Soul Corps might not really be able to capture the city.
But now... the opponent doesn't need to use any force at all, he only needs to show the muscles he should have, which is enough to make the great nobles fearful.
The other side doesn't even need to send many manpower. It only requires one military spirit legion and two legions, which is enough to scare away the big nobles.
Even if the Karan family is dragged onto the pirate ship by them, they still hope that the other party and the military soul army will fight hard, so they should just go to sleep.
"Grandpa! I'm back!" Ardashir rushed into the hall.
Fars Sasan sighed. At the critical moment, only his family could be relied upon.
"How is the situation?" Fars Sasan asked.
"Too bad, the other party has no intention of stopping me at all, and focuses entirely on the Karan family!" Aldashir told Fars Sasan bad news.
"Go down and send someone to have peace talks with Xinghan!"
Fars Sasan sighed. He had realized that they seemed to have no choice. The other party had forced them to negotiate.
"Grandpa, let me go!" Ardashir volunteered.
"No, you are the future prince, how can you put your life in danger!" Fars Sasan refused instantly. Ardashir's father had died on the battlefield with Rome.
Their family's reputation was built with sacrifice and blood. If not, they wouldn't be able to trick the two major families at once.
Just like before Sima Yi's Oath of Luoshui, the Sima family still had a guaranteed reputation, and everyone was willing to believe in the Sima family's guarantee.
But after Sima Yi broke the oath, not many people believed anyone named Sima who swore an oath.
Reputation is difficult to accumulate but extremely easy to collapse.
"Grandpa, just let me go. Who else can really make up my mind other than me!" Aldashir said in a disappointed tone.
Who can they trust at this time?
In the entire Sasanian family, the only people who can take charge at this moment are Ardashir and Fars Sasan.
"You're right! None of us can believe it now!"
Fars Sasan seemed to be half awakened by Ardashir, muttering to himself.
"Just let me go, Grandpa!" Ardashir continued to plead.
Fars Sasan shook his head.
"I have a better candidate!" Fars Sasan said calmly. It is true that they no longer have a trustworthy person in charge in Ctesiphon.
But besides Ardashir, there is actually a more suitable choice.
"Who?" Ardashir was very surprised. He couldn't think of anyone who could be more suitable than him.
"Me!" Fars Sasan pointed at himself.
"Grandpa!" Ardashir couldn't believe it.
