Da Qin: Destroyed the Xiongnu at the beginning

“But Hannibal is a very ambitious man who wants to do something big. If he is allowed to sink with Carthage, he will never be willing to accept it. Looking at the whole world, he can be well accepted. , and the only one who can fulfill his wish is Da Qin”

“Therefore, after what the Carthage nobles did, we in Great Qin could immediately contact him and promise him generous remuneration and a bright future. Comparing the two, I believe that Hannibal will definitely make the right move. choose.”

Having said this, a confident smile appeared on Fusu’s face.

He really knows a talented person like Hannibal very well.

They have always been stoic and conceited.

Hannibal is indeed He has his country at heart, and no matter how many blows he receives from high-level nobles, he still breaks his teeth and swallows it forcefully to protect his country, because at this time, he still firmly believes that he can save Carthage by himself. – Come back.

Only when Hannibal is disappointed again and again and deeply realizes how insignificant his own strength is and cannot change the fate of the country’s decline and destruction, will he reconsider his whereabouts, such as Dedicate yourself to the Great Qin.

Anyway, Carthage is already declining and it is difficult for the gods to save it. In this case, it is better to turn to the Great Qin to realize your lofty ambitions.、

“This is an excellent method. What you said does make sense. In this case, then let’s do everything as you said.”

“If this can really add another capable minister and general to our Great Qin, that would be a blessing.”

Ying Zheng nodded and said with a smile.

“Thank you father for trusting me”

“With an enlightened emperor like my father here, I believe that capable men and ministers from all over the world will naturally come to our great Qin like crucian carp crossing the river.”

Fusu praised.

The ministers in the court couldn’t help but sigh in their hearts when they saw that Ying Zheng and Fusu were willing to spend so much time and effort in order to introduce a Hannibal.

Today’s Great Qin has truly achieved Listening and aiding can only be useful, and all the talents in the world will naturally enter the Qin Dynasty.

With such a king and successor, why worry about the Qin Dynasty not being able to unify the world in the future? The beautiful vision of the Qin Dynasty in the world will surely be realized.

With this, At the same time, in the residence of the Supreme Consul of Rome,

Scipio was sitting in his seat, holding military intelligence from the front line in his hand, with a terrible expression on his face.

Although he said that he had expected Hannibal’s surprise attack, and He had already warned the Roman army not to relax their vigilance, but when it really happened and the news came that the entire Roman garrison was annihilated, Scipio was still filled with shock.

He was shocked that Hannibal actually He was so bold. He knew clearly that Rome had been married to the Qin Dynasty, but he dared to disobey the retreat order given to him by the Carthaginian nobles and resolutely attack their Roman garrison. This was undoubtedly a bold move to provoke the Qin army.

Could it be that he just Are you not afraid that you will receive revenge from the Great Qin army in the future?

As for the combat effectiveness of the Great Qin army, I am afraid no one will question it. It is absolutely the best in the world!

With only tens of thousands of people, they can defeat their 200,000-strong Roman army. Although Most of the credit is due to Fusu’s miraculous calculations, but it is also enough to prove that the Qin army’s own military quality is extremely high, and this was a record a few years ago.

With the rapid development speed of Da Qin, after so much time, I am afraid that the combat effectiveness is far behind. It is beyond comparison before.

Such a powerful army, let alone the current Carthage army, I am afraid that even if their number is doubled, they will definitely only be crushed!

Hannibal’s kind This behavior is undoubtedly walking a tightrope on the fire!

This makes Scipio very unable to understand Hannibal’s treatment of him, and it is difficult to guess what his purpose is.

Just as Scipio was thinking, their The consul’s retinue came in from outside the door.

“Your Excellency, because our Roman garrison was attacked by the Carthaginian army, it has now been completely wiped out, including the Roman defense line, which was breached and occupied by Hannibal.”

“This caused the originally good situation in our Rome to suddenly take a turn for the worse. Not only did we no longer have defensive positions that were easy to defend and difficult to attack, but we also had a large area of land in Rome that was at risk of being invaded by the Carthaginian army at all times. This made the surrounding residents very scared, fearing that one day the war would spread to their homes.”

“In addition, because the Roman army, our main force in Rome, suddenly lost the place where they were stationed due to the failure of the Roman defense line, for this reason, they were now forced to build a tent outside and stay temporarily.”

“However, their emotions were very unstable, and they seemed to be very angry about Carthage’s raid on the Roman positions. Therefore, each of them wanted to wash away their shame and take revenge, waiting for an opportunity to go to war with Carthage.”

After that, the consul’s retinue placed a large pile of documents in front of Scipio, which described the terrible situation Rome was facing now.

After reading it carefully, Scipio frowned tightly.

Carthage The consequences of Hannibal’s army wiping out their Roman garrison and occupying the Roman defense line were more serious than he imagined.

Scipio originally thought that although Hannibal took advantage of the careless timing of the Roman garrison, he would seize the Roman garrison with a surprise attack. They got their Roman defense position.

But the main force of the Roman army is still there, and the specific combat effectiveness has not been greatly affected. With the green hills here, there is no fear of running out of firewood.

But now it seems that he was too naive. Since the Roman defense line was surrounded by grassland-like terrain and there were no tall shelters, once their Roman army had any thoughts of a battle raid, they would be directly exposed to the Carthaginian army and then fall into Carthage. Under the siege of the Carthaginian army.

In this case, unless the number of soldiers of the Roman army can be increased five or six times, relying on the lives of countless soldiers to force the Roman army to advance in front of the Carthaginian army, this can be done reluctantly World War I.

But for so many years, the Roman people have been oppressed by the Roman nobles, and there are constant domestic conflicts and wars. In such a harsh environment, whether they can survive safely is a question, let alone It is said that they are giving birth to children.

Therefore, the domestic fertility rate can be said to be pitifully low.

In addition, the population of Rome is already small, and it has to be enriched in all walks of life, as well as the private armies of major nobles.

Rome is like this The current situation makes it impossible for Scipio to recruit many times more young adults than the current Roman regular army to enrich the army.

As long as the army does not have enough numbers, Rome will not even be able to touch Carthage. , can only be a living target for the Carthaginian army.

The Carthaginian army relies on the Roman defense line to advance, attack, retreat or defend. It can be said that all war trends are completely under their control.

When the Roman army is preparing to attack , they huddled within the city wall, relying on the geographical advantages of this defense line to block the Roman army’s attack.

Unless they suddenly had several times more troops than their Carthaginian army, they would not even be able to get close to the city wall of the defense line. , just to deal with the hidden arrows shot by the Carthaginians from the city wall, as well as the rolling boulders and other defenders, most of the enemy army would have been killed or injured. It was more than enough to stop the Roman army.

And when the Roman army wanted to retreat, At that time, the Carthaginian army could open the city gates and send various cavalry to harass them.

The cavalry has always been known for its agility and flexibility, not to mention that on the grassland, which is flat and has no obstacles, the advantage of the cavalry can be said to be This is vividly reflected.

Although the Roman army also has cavalry, the Carthaginian cavalry has its back against the defense wall. If it can fight, it can continue to fight. If it cannot be defeated, it can run away without worries.

And if the cavalry of the Roman army If you dare to pursue the enemy, you need to be cautious. Not only do you have to worry about whether this is a trap for the Carthaginian army, but you are also afraid that you will pursue the enemy too deeply and end up on Carthage territory.

Rome is not as rich as Qin.

Not only does the prairie have the best horse ranch in the world, but there are also special riding and shooting courses in official schools at all levels, making every student in Da Qin very good at riding skills. Relatively speaking, cavalry is basically useless to Da Qin. Not surprising.

However, Rome was different. Due to regional issues and its own imperfect education system, whether it was a well-trained military horse or a soldier with proficient horse riding skills, Rome needed to invest a lot of resources to cultivate it individually. And it’s still very rare.

Therefore, any cavalryman was extremely valuable in the Roman army.[]

If the cavalry were told to stay here because they were going to pursue the Carthaginian army, wouldn’t it be worth the loss?

Therefore, even Rome itself had cavalry, but it could only endure the constant harassment of Carthage until it completely exited the radiation range of the defensive walls.

As a result, the Roman army could only be led by the Carthaginian army, which was undoubtedly very detrimental to the overall situation in Rome.

“Alas, if I had known that something like this would happen, I should not have focused all my energy on the internal political affairs of Rome. Instead, I should have focused more on thinking about the battle between the Roman army and the Carthaginian army.”

“In this case, maybe things like this wouldn’t happen.”

Scipio shook his head and sighed.

He knew clearly at the beginning that a figure like Hannibal would never retreat immediately just because he heard the news of the marriage between Rome and Qin.

But Scipio In the end, Ah chose common sense instead of trusting his understanding and research on Hannibal for so many years, which led to the Roman garrison’s Carthaginian army easily breaking through in a surprise attack, and the Roman defense line was also occupied. When he thought of this, Xibi Ah, almost even my intestines are wet with regret.

“Sir Scipio, now that what has happened, I hope you will stop blaming yourself.”

“And in the final analysis, this matter has nothing to do with you. First, because you have to deal with various new regulations in Rome, you don’t have more energy to study the battle situation carefully, let alone go to the commander in person.”

“Furthermore, you have clearly given many instructions before, so that the Roman garrison, even if there are traces of the retreat of the Carthaginian army led by Hannibal, still cannot take it lightly, act cautiously every day, and strengthen Peripheral inspection and patrol”

“But the Roman garrison turned a deaf ear to what you said, squandering the materials they were issued, and even held a private banquet, making every soldier extremely drunk.”

“In the end, the Carthaginian army found an opportunity, and after a surprise attack, they were wiped out in their sleep. Therefore, it can be said that the reason why the defense line garrison and the others incurred such a result was entirely their own fault and no one else. , has nothing to do with you at all.”

The Archon’s retinue comforted Scipio and said.

But this is indeed a fact.

As a person close to Scipio, the Archon’s retinue is similar to a clerical secretary. He and Scipio get along day and night almost every day, and they are inseparable.

Therefore , , how busy Scipio’s government affairs were, almost all the consuls and retinues saw it.

Scipio not only had to handle at least thousands of large and small political affairs every day, and gave appropriate instructions and opinions, sometimes he also You have to go to the site in person to observe the progress and effectiveness, or supervise the efficiency of some offices.

At the end of a day filled with all kinds of things, Scipio���There is almost no time to even go to the toilet.

Even eating had to be done in hand while holding various reports to give instructions, let alone personally lead the war between the Roman army and Carthage, which was basically impossible.

Although Scipio was indeed gifted in politics and military affairs, he was still a human being after all and could not cover everything.

If ordinary people had heard that the Carthaginian nobles had issued a retreat order to Hannibal, they would have been convinced of Hannibal’s retreat.

Scipio was able to rely on his knowledge of Hannibal to still maintain a skeptical attitude towards it, and told the Roman garrison to be cautious. He had done everything he could.

Not only did the consul Hu Zong not think it was Scipio’s fault, but he admired him even more..

“Having said that, I am the consul of Rome after all, and I also have the highest command of the Roman army. Now the Roman garrison has been completely wiped out, and the Roman defense line has been breached and occupied by Carthage. This has almost destroyed the Roman army’s previous establishment. All the advantages of”

“Although under the implementation of the New Deal, the current situation in Rome has changed a lot and people’s lives have improved, but under my neglect, Rome’s several years of efforts to fight against Carthage were destroyed. I am like this Is it really useful to demolish the east wall to repair the west wall?”

Scipio sighed a few times, and the look on his face became extremely confused…
