Mythical Version of the Three Kingdoms

In the first battle in western Norway, the Celts, led by the new king, successfully broke out of the encirclement, and the Celts north of the Danube also began to retreat eastward with a tacit understanding.

The Slavs also withdrew to the Eastern European plains, but compared to the Slavs' adequate preparations and stronger strength, the Celts, which lacked logistics, were obviously targeted, whether it was the Germans or the Romans. Go after the Celts.

The Celts throughout Europe started their eastward journey at the beginning of this wave, where Xu You was waiting for their arrival.

Compared with the short-legged Romans, who gave up after chasing for hundreds of miles, as the Germans who promised Severus at the beginning, they desperately chased and killed the Celts from Western Europe to the coast of the Baltic Sea. It is not a stop until entering the territory of St. Petersburg, Russia in later generations.

Because this place has already reached the territory of the Slavic people. Compared with the Germanic and Celtic people, as the ancestors of the fighting nation Lao Maozi, the Slavic people said that although we are low-key, our fighting power is definitely not inferior to yours.

Compared with the Germanic people and the hundreds of years of war between the Celts and the Romans, hundreds of thousands of people, millions of people died because of this, the Slavic people eat melons all the year round, squatting on the Eastern European plains to watch the Germanic people Killed each other with the Celts and Romans.

It can be said that if this wave of Romans were not crazy and wanted to overthrow all barbarians, the vast majority of Slavic people would definitely squat in Eastern Europe and the Black Sea and continue to be their melon-eating people.

Now that the Romans overthrew the Celts and seemed to have recovered the Germans, the Slavs felt what it means to be on their backs, so the Germans who surrendered to the Romans chased all the way to the Baltic Sea to kill the Celts. The Pope and Queen, the Slavs made a decisive move.

Although the Slavs are scattered scattered, the main large tribes are in the Eastern European Plain near the Baltic Sea.

The people who participated in the war before were mainly the Slavic tribes in the northwest of the Black Sea. They had no choice but to stay too close together. If they didn’t fight, the other two barbarians would die and they would be beaten by the Romans sooner or later.

Therefore, before the Battle of Great Britain, the great chief of the Slavic tribe in the Black Sea region east of the Danube contacted his brothers on the Eastern European Plain. On the one hand, he borrowed some people, and on the other hand, he also informed him. If I can’t fight my brother, please remember to help me.

At this time, the relationship between the Slavic tribes was quite good. After all, the Principality of Samo, which was later sprinkled with dog blood, and the Principality of Bulgaria, which was even more bloody, and the Great Moravian Kingdom, which destroyed the feelings of the tribes, had not yet emerged.

At this time, the Slavic people are still very united. The brothers in the Eastern European Plain said, go ahead, if not, we will pick you up on the coast of the Baltic Sea.

With this answer, the Slavic tribes near the Black Sea went decisively, and then were blown away by the Romans, and then hunted down by the Germans.

Fortunately, all the way eastward and finally ran to the coast of the Baltic Sea, where the Slavs greeted.

"Brothers in the Black Sea, do you want to help?" the Slavs on the Eastern European Plain asked eagerly.

"Hurry up and help, these are brothers who were bullied by the Romans, and the bastard who surrendered to the Romans behind him, hurry up and help!" The Slavs near the Black Sea screamed.

The Slavs from Eastern Europe came out with 5,000 men, all of whom were strong men with big axes. The Slavs' unique dual-talented heavy-duty tomahawk army launched a head-on attack on the Germans who were chasing and killing their brothers.

Although the heavy tomahawks of the Slavs with extremely poor smelting technology are not very sharp, a stone ax that is big and heavy enough can kill the enemy.

So he wrapped a piece of sheepskin casually, drank a few gulps of wine, and the Eastern European Slavs with messy beards so messy that they couldn't see their faces, carrying things like stone axes and iron ore polished to look like axes, easily put Germanic Man cut down the Baltic Sea!

Compared with fighting, the ancestors of the fighting nation said that we don't know why we are so strong, but we can definitely hack you to death anyway.

The Celts managed to escape the catastrophe, but their strength was greatly damaged. The Slavs in the Eastern European Plain saw the Celtics' reliable smelting technology and allowed the Celts to settle in the east of the Eastern European Plain. As a price, the Celts need to provide the Slavs with 3,000 large axes and 2,000 gun heads every year.

The queen of the Celts looked at her subjects, and agreed to the request without much thought. As the earliest civilizations in the world who mastered smelting technology, the Celts were almost the first people in Europe to understand smelting. Iron ore, axes, and gun heads are no problem.

After the two parties agreed on this point, the Eastern European Slavs welcomed the Celts to join the Eastern European pastures, and the era entered a new chapter.

Naturally, what the Germans promised the Romans could not be achieved at all. The Slavs in Eastern Europe were very powerful, and they were far away from the Roman border. Remember this wave, and prepare to make trouble when the Romans are unlucky.

Although the final pursuit did not complete the plan of the Romans, Severus was quite satisfied with completely driving the three barbarians out of his sphere of influence.

What's more, the Germanic people with a population of millions were completely conquered. Nearly 100,000 Celts were killed, hundreds of thousands were captured, and less than 500,000 were fleeing with difficulty.

As for the Slavs, although this nation is also a barbarian, compared to other barbarians, this barbarian basically has no sense of existence, and now it has gone to the Eastern European plains. Even a madman like Severus doesn't want to work hard for an expedition at such a long distance.

"Forget it, the Slavs will let them go this time." Severus leaned back on the throne and picked up the blood-red wine with lead powder and said proudly to the commander who participated in the war this time.

From this moment on, there is no rival around the Roman Empire except Anxi.

"I don't know what's going on with Ganassis. Have you defeated Anxi completely? Don't let me do it!" Severus thought of Ganassis while holding a wine glass.

The feast after the victory, all the soldiers who participated in the Battle of Great Britain felt the honor and pride, and made them more agree with Severus' rule.

Compared with the era of the Five Sage Emperors, as soldiers now, they not only enjoy the glory of the victors, but also enjoy the benefits of heroes. The Roman soldiers who have gained both fame and fortune have a deeper recognition of their identity as professional soldiers .

The celebration banquet lasted until late at night. When the moon was in the middle of the sky, even Severus was a little drunk. He demolished the large amount of wealth brought by the Celtics’ hometown. Under Severus’s order, all those who participated in the Battle of Great Britain All the soldiers got the second reward.

"Phew." Severus in the camp looked at the statistical report brought out by the clerk, feeling extremely headache, "Pompianus, you mean that if we continue like this, we will not be able to bear the expenditure of this scale. ?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, I told you about it a long time ago, but you didn't take it to heart." Pompianus said with a headache.

Pompianus, who was a member of the Senate and financial officer in the era of Marco Aurelius, the last of the five good emperors, wanted to tell Severus that I want to step down, please let me go, You spend so much money, I don't want to take the blame.

"That is to say, if we spend like this for up to thirteen years, we will be unable to maintain it due to financial collapse, right?" Severu said awkwardly.

"No, it's more serious than this. Although the Roman Empire suffered heavy political losses after the era when the name was erased, the solid foundation of Rome and the wealth left by the five wise emperors, when the country is stable, , is enough to carry out financial subsidies for decades, but you are completely different!" Pompianus said with a big head, he doesn't want to be a financial officer, especially this kind of national finance that is obviously going to end, Your Majesty , please let it go!

The Five Sage Emperors are considered excellent emperors of the Roman Empire, and they are all consuls who are good at governing the country. The comprehensive national power of Rome has risen steadily under the hands of these few. By the time of Commodus, the Romans had already shown obvious extravagant behavior, but the treasury Extremely filling.

However, Commodus made a mess first, and the country was in chaos for three years. After that, Severus came up to recruit soldiers and increase the salaries of soldiers. Simply put, Rome's finances have been in deficit since the death of Marcus Aurelius.

Fortunately, the foundation of the Five Sage Emperors is solid enough. Pompianus calculated after running away in Commodus. According to Commodus’s spending speed, before Commodus was killed by the guards, the treasury could still cover Live, to be precise, the Roman treasury said drizzle!

In Pompianus' cognition, the guardians of the city and the country are not in turmoil, the treasury is not empty, and the national regime has not collapsed. Temporary turmoil is not a problem. When Commodus is dead, as long as he stands Come out and take over the position of financial officer, and continue the loose economic policy of the five virtuous emperors. Rome will still be Rome, so there is no need to worry.

The actual development is similar to the estimate of the financial officer Pompianus. Commodus died soon, and then he was brought back to take over as the financial officer. If you speak, just tell him that it is enough to continue to develop according to the policy of the year, but you tell me, who asked you to increase the salary of the soldiers by five times!

Severus' new policy simply broke the financial officer. Do you know how much five times the income is, and do you know how many soldiers you have raised!

The 300,000 troops do not count as equipment, and the salaries alone are so much. You want financial collapse. Do you know that the country’s total annual fiscal revenue is only a little higher than that of raising soldiers. The problem is that other aspects cost money.
