Da Qin: Destroyed the Xiongnu at the beginning

"Indeed, since Daqin had His Royal Highness the Prince of Fusu, the level of science and technology has been getting higher and higher day by day, especially their steel refining technology is even more superb. "

"Judging from what His Excellency Scipio Jr. has heard about Great Qin, our Rome is not a grade at all compared to Great Qin in terms of smelting level and smelting efficiency! "

"And even iron tools have already been completely popularized in Daqin, and higher-quality steel has also become popular, not to mention that Daqin has all kinds of magical tools that I can't even imagine. "

"Sometimes, I even have some doubts about whether our Rome and Daqin are countries in the same era, otherwise why is their Daqin developing with each passing day, and it is completely a scene of a scientific and technological capital, while our Rome is like a country still living in the society of the old era, the difference between the two is simply heaven and earth!"

Hearing Scipio's emotion, the consul Hu Cong also nodded with deep understanding.

After all, Great Qin is too powerful, and that feeling that it is enough to crush you for an era in all aspects, so that you can't see any hope of surpassing it except for being afraid of it.

To be the enemy of such a country is to be directly scared awake from a dream at night!

"In addition to these, I also heard that Daqin has been developing some secret weapon recently, it is said to be extremely powerful, once it is hit head-on by that secret weapon, even a dozen layers of leather armor will be destroyed in an instant!"

"In order to prevent this secret weapon from misfire and accidents, Daqin even specially stationed a steam fire engine around the training ground!

Speaking of this, Scipio's face could not hide the fear of Daqin.

The secret weapon he mentioned naturally refers to the firearms that Fusu proposed in the court before.

Since 10 years after Ying Zheng saw the terrifying power of this firearm, he immediately realized its great significance to the battlefield, so under the suggestion of Fusu, he immediately asked Nesten to lead people to set up a training ground for training firearms.

The main purpose is to train soldiers in the use of firearms, such as the most important precision and adaptability.

In addition, in order to learn to use firearms as soon as possible and quickly put them into actual combat, those training soldiers practiced at the training ground almost day and night.

Therefore, although Daqin protects the military secrets of firearms very well, the training ground for firearms is also specially built in the field.

But the occasional roar from the training ground, as well as the steam fire trucks that had been staying nearby, still leaked out all the information about firearms.

"A secret weapon that is enough to destroy more than a dozen layers of leather armor at once? This power is also terrifying! I'm afraid that even if the whole body is covered with iron armor, it will be crushed by this so-called secret weapon at once, right?!"

"His Royal Highness the Prince of Fusu is too godly, he can even create this kind of thing!"

"Fortunately, Your Excellency Scipio has a deep plan and sent Her Royal Highness Princess Sophie to marry Daqin early, and successfully married His Royal Highness Prince Fusu, who is the most powerful and famous. "

"Otherwise, if we face such a powerful enemy in Rome, I am afraid that we will not even have the slightest chance of winning, and even if they do not attack Rome for the time being, we can only spend our days in fear and anxiety. "

The consuls grew to admire Scipio's foresight.

"It's not a foresight, I didn't think so much at that time, but because the Carthaginian army was pressing forward step by step, and our Rome was in turmoil, so I wanted to find a strong enough ally for Rome, or for my Scipio family, so I asked my nephew to bring Sophie to Qin with him in the name of an envoy visit. "

"It is precisely because of this that my nephew brought me all kinds of news about Daqin, and I knew that the strength of Daqin was far beyond my imagination!"

"Originally, I thought that Great Qin was only very strong in military ability, and it was enough to completely crush us in terms of war, but who knows, Great Qin is also strong in agriculture, orthodoxy and other aspects to such a point, which is not at all comparable to our Rome!"

"That's when I realized that I picked up a big bargain myself!"

Scipio's heart was filled with joy at this time.

Since he became the supreme consul, he admits that he has done a lot of things that are beneficial to the country and has done a lot of wrong things, but marrying Daqin is undoubtedly the most correct thing he has ever done.

Especially his own daughter, who is married to His Royal Highness the unparalleled Prince Fusu!

Scipio has always been both admiring and in awe of Fusu.

In the past, Scipio considered himself a genius and despised everything around him, and only Hannibal of Carthage could be looked down upon by him.

It wasn't until he learned about Fusu's deeds that he knew that there really was such a perfect all-rounder in the world, and his little ability was not even as good as a little finger of Fusu!

With his almost miraculous talent, Scipio had no doubt that under his leadership, Great Qin would become an empire without the sun setting of the ancients, and it would be almost impossible for the future to come!

At that time, as Fusu's father-in-law, he may be lucky enough to be stained with this brilliance and go down in history with him!

"But, Lord Scipio, there is something that your subordinates are very puzzled about. "

"That is, since we in Rome have such a deep understanding of the strength of Great Qin, then even if Hannibal of Carthage has never visited Great Qin, he should have heard of the current strength of Great Qin. "

"With the current strength of Great Qin, its anger is simply not something that Carthage, which is now in decline, can bear, why would Hannibal not hesitate to disobey the retreat orders of their Carthaginian nobles and lead his Carthaginian army to raid our Roman garrison?"

"In this way, although he was glorious for a while, with the occupied defensive walls, we put the Roman army in a dilemma, and greatly relieved the tension of Carthage in foreign wars, but he also offended Daqin, which is tantamount to drinking water to quench thirst, doesn't Hannibal even understand this truth?"

Archon Hu Cong was puzzled by this.

"Since Hannibal was able to develop the originally ruined Carthaginian army to the situation it is today, it is enough to show that his ability is not only not weak, but also very strong, and it is naturally impossible for him not to know the truth of drinking water to quench his thirst. "

"I think the main reason why he led the Carthaginian army to raid our Roman garrison was because he had no way to retreat. "

"If Hannibal did not do this, but heeded the advice of the Carthaginian nobles, he simply abandoned the position he had held and retreated to the next defensive point, although it was said that the offensive from our Roman army was temporarily relieved. "

However, their fundamental problems have not been solved, because the pace of our Roman army will never stop, and if this continues, Carthage will only die a slow death, and perhaps it is precisely because of this that Hannibal wants to fight and make a name for himself. "

"Although I don't think this will have any impact on the final result, I admire his courage, at least he was not frightened by the strength of Great Qin, but went against the current, and in a posture that others could not predict, he proved his military ability and the strength of the Carthaginian army by counterattacking our Roman garrison. "

"If I had been in Hannibal's shoes, I wouldn't have been as fearless as he was. "

Scipio sighed with emotion.

"Indeed, with that group of rotten Carthaginian nobles dragging their feet, even a military genius like Hannibal may not be able to bring it up. "

"By the way, Your Excellency Scipio, since our Rome has become an in-law state with Great Qin, now that our Roman defense line has been lost, a large area of Roman territory has been completely exposed under the noses of the Carthaginian army, and the situation is quite unoptimistic. "

"Do we want to send a messenger to Daqin immediately to ask for their support?"

"With the combat effectiveness of the Great Qin army, I believe that Hannibal's Carthaginian army will be solved soon, so we don't have to worry about this anymore. "

Archon Hu Cong asked from the side.

However. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Scipio did not give him an immediate reply, but fell into deep thought.

Indeed, as long as he nodded yes, if there was a letter asking for support from Daqin, it would be immediately presented to Ying Zheng's desk.

As the number one power in the world today, Great Qin does not care about its attitude towards Rome, whether it wants to annex it or has other purposes, at least on the surface, the two countries are already close relatives.

Even for the sake of Qin's face, Yingzheng would definitely send troops to support Rome, and in order to maintain the invincible prestige of the Qin army, he directly leveled Hannibal's Carthaginian army, and this problem that caused Scipio to his headache was immediately solved.

Everything is just as when they attacked Seleucid when Rome attacked Seleucid, except that this time the attackers were replaced by the Carthaginian army, and their Rome took the place of Seleucid.

But at the same time, Scipio also knew very well in his heart that once he really asked the Qin army for help, then his body would be permanently marked with the symbol of Great Qin, and the influence of Great Qin in Rome would be further deepened, leaving a savior-like impression on the Roman soldiers and civilians.

After the railway from Daqin to Rome was completely completed, plus the Suez Canal connecting Daqin and Rome, because of this battle, the Romans' good impression of Daqin, Daqin's culture, economy and even ideas would penetrate into Rome.

This infiltration effect is undoubtedly terrifying.

Over time, I'm afraid that the Romans will become Great Qin people!

In addition, apart from this infiltration and influence, no one knows how large the Qin army sent to support was, and what purpose it came for.

If the Qin army sent is more than 100,000, then it will naturally be easy to break through a Carthaginian army.

After all, tens of thousands of Qin troops were enough to easily defeat their Roman army of 300,000, and now with the development of science and technology, their equipment has been improved, and their combat effectiveness of 220 is naturally not what it used to be.

But what about after the defeat of the Carthaginian army?

It would be fine if Great Qin didn't have other ideas, but what if they came to support this time, it was originally for the purpose of destroying the Carthaginian army and easily capturing their Rome?

With the terrifying combat strength of 100,000 Qin troops, it is estimated that even if the private armies of the nobles and nobles in Rome are combined, plus the regular army of Rome, they will definitely not be their opponents. []

Even if the Qin army sent was only tens of thousands, it was definitely a threat that they Rome could not solve.

In response to Daqin's words, he sent away the wolves and ushered in the tigers.

By that time, the problem of the invasion of the Carthaginian army was solved, and their Rome was also destroyed under the iron heel of the Qin army.

And Scipio will undoubtedly become the sinner of the ages who led the tiger into the house and led to the destruction of Rome, and will always be spurned by the subjects of Rome.

Whether or not to immediately ask Daqin for assistance was undoubtedly a difficult choice.

Because if you don't ask for help, the Carthaginian army led by Hannibal is eyeing it, and in Rome's current state, although the main force of the Roman army is still there, there are eight or nine that cannot defeat it.

This will undoubtedly lead to the loss of large swaths of Roman territory, and a large number of Roman people will live in dire straits.

But if you ask for help from Daqin, the risk is too great.

After all, with Great Qin's rapidly growing military strength in recent years, as well as its frantic expansion to the surrounding areas, everyone knows that Great Qin definitely has the idea of incorporating the entire Western Regions and even the entire world into its own national territory.

As the world's largest power today, Daqin does have this capital and strength.

However, Rome is a major power that cannot be ignored in the Western Regions, and if Great Qin wants to include the Western Regions in its territory, Rome is definitely one of the components that cannot be avoided.

In other words, if Great Qin wanted to annex the Western Regions, it must first annex Rome, and because Rome's influence in the surrounding area was large enough, Great Qin's priority to annex Rome was quite high.

This made Scipio have to worry about whether Daqin would take advantage of the rescue opportunity to have any thoughts about Rome.

"Didn't Daqin already set the date for Sophie to get married, when is it?"

Scipio asked suddenly.

"Your Excellency Scipio, according to the date set by Daqin, the day when Princess Sophie and His Royal Highness Prince Fusu marry should be seven days later. "

The consul Hu Cong, although he was a little surprised that Scipio's answer was not what he asked, he answered the question anyway.
