Sweep the World

A large army completely collapses in a state of warfare. It needs to be very skilled and have great prestige. Only a general who combines the above two can gather as many defeated troops as possible and give them the will to fight again.

Obviously, the anti-Han axis coalition forces do not have the existence of generals who can pack up the defeated troops, and they completely fall apart when they are defeated.

First, the more than 200,000 anti-Han axis coalition forces on the main battlefield collapsed, and then various parts also fell into a rout. The nearly 300,000 anti-Han axis coalition forces staged what is called "Birds and Beasts".

There were about 300,000 anti-Han Axis coalition soldiers. Only more than 100,000 of them managed to escape from the battlefield. The rest either killed each other in the process of fleeing, or were caught and killed by the Han army, or It is due to various natural factors.

Even hundreds of miles away from the battlefield, you can occasionally see the collapsed soldiers. The closer you get to the battlefield, the more corpses.

Those anti-Han axis coalition forces that successfully escaped, organized and wanted to go back, were naturally led by the leader to go back to each family to find each mother; if they didn’t want to go back, they would find a place to nest under the leader or under the leadership of the leader, which might be possible in the future. Will become a gang of robbers and bandits, maybe it will form a new tribe.

The Han army stopped advancing, on the one hand, it is destroying the enemy that is still stubbornly resisting, on the other hand it is waiting for follow-up reinforcements.

On the tenth day, an army full of "Chinese" banners came from the east bank of the Penchi River to the west bank. They were the first of many reinforcements. They were at the level of a standing army and were mainly cavalry. .

Li Kuang has an additional standing army in his hand, that is, the number of soldiers has reached about 40,000, and the number of auxiliary troops including the Han is nearly 70,000, and the total size has exceeded 100,000.

"Set off!"

If it weren’t for it, the generals of the Han Army were actually unwilling to assist soldiers in performing combat tasks. In addition to being the pride of elite troops, they knew that there would be a lot of unnecessary casualties if they participated in the war.

Of course, if the servant soldiers or slave soldiers were sent to death, the Han generals would not hesitate at all, and their feelings were limited to the same clan.

The new standing soldier who had crossed the river came to the battlefield after a good rest, and because the cavalry accounted for the majority, it was arranged by Li Kuang as the leader of the whole army.

Liu Shen's army is at the back of the entire army. Not only does he control the 1,300 people in his headquarters, he is also responsible for restraining and supervising nearly 3,000 Roman slave soldiers.

Among the captured soldiers of the Anti-Han Axis Coalition, in addition to the 3,000 Romans, there were also nearly 7,000 Persians who were also reorganized into slave soldiers, but they were not led by Liu Shen.

Except for the Romans and Persians, the prisoners of war of all ethnic groups were sent back to the Anxi Duhu prefecture by Li Kuang's arrangement of auxiliary troops. The number was more than 32,000.

The seven thousand Persians were broken up into several parts. Compared with the treatment of the Romans in the Han camp, their treatment was much worse.

The so-called treatment is nothing more than eating and drinking and the status of the station.

"The food of the Serris is not like going on an expedition outside the country." Palles was nibbling a piece of dried fish in his hand. He had just eaten two bowls of rice and a bowl of soup with meat: "We can all With this kind of food, can you imagine what Seris people eat?"

Palles’ food was slightly different from other Roman officers. The Han army gave him the treatment of a military commander, not only fish and meat, but also drinks.

Romans who were reduced to slavery were generally kept in a half-filled state.

In fact, that is also understandable. It is not that the Han army has a shortage of food, but that it is impossible to feed the slave soldiers and keep them in a half-full state is just to prevent eating too much and making trouble.

"Their firearm supplies are not in the queue." Barodos was eating steamed buns. He liked this kind of food, especially when it was hot, it tasted soft and delicious: "Every Cyris rifleman, they They carried a leather box with them, and that was the ammunition bag where they set gunpowder and bullets."

"The Serris people are very strict with us." Palles even chewed the bones of the dried fish and swallowed it. He knew that no nutrients could be spared now, or he couldn't afford to wait for excessive physical exertion. How long: "They seem to believe our sincerity, but they did not relax because of caution."

"We must wait for the best time!" Barodos seems to have a higher status than Pales? In the tone of the following command, he said: "We are ready to make a huge sacrifice. None of us hope that sacrifice is useless."

They are marching, walking on two feet.

After the Romans became slaves, their weapons and armor were all confiscated in non-wartime conditions, and they wore their traditional short skirts and robes when the weather had turned cold.

The marching formation is one person following the other to form a long dragon. The left and right sides of each group of Romans are the same Han soldiers forming a long dragon, and the distance between each group is no more than two meters.

If you look down from a high altitude, the moving army is a straight long dragon, and the formation extends from this side to the end of the horizon.

They have penetrated into the territory of Hunite for more than four hundred miles. The boundary is where Li Kuang led an army to invade Hunite and was to the west, and they will soon enter the area where the Hunite people have established towns.

Along the way, the leading Han cavalry units encountered only a few hostile troops, most of which were the Hunets who were migrating, and a few were the ruined troops that were dragging their feet.

Go further west for about three hundred miles, which is the border of Sassanid.

However, before reaching the Sassanian border, the Han army had to pass through an area where the Gobi and desert were mixed together, and at the same time, they had to pass through two mountainous areas.

"There is no situation there, right?" Of course, Li Kuang was marching on a straddle horse, and the object of the question was Yang Rui: "We need those Romans, but we can't let them do anything."

Yang Rui's pressure has always been not small, and whoever has such a special identity in his army will always be under great pressure.

"The Romans seem to be very honest." Yang Rui frowned and continued: "Because the performance is too cooperative, the job is a little uneasy."

"If the fire happens, it will probably be after entering the mountains." Li Kuang thought for a while and said, "Before entering the mountains, change other troops to take over the Romans."

Yang Rui didn't have any opinion on Li Kuang's disposition, it could even be said to be relieved.

Before entering the mountainous area, Liu Shen saw Qin Song and learned that he was coming to replace him. He asked something he shouldn't ask: "Is it because these slaves are likely to become gangsters after entering the mountainous area?"

Of course Qin Song would not regard Liu Shen as an ordinary military commander, and frankly replied: "Yes, Your Highness. For..."

"Can you wait for a moment?" Liu Shen didn't look arrogant because of his identity, but he didn't realize that not immediately accepting the order is a kind of arrogance, and said: "Can you let the post go to the school lieutenant department and come back again? Replace?"

Qin Song was silent for a while, or because of Liu Shen's special status, he agreed by default.

The mountainous area ahead is about a hundred miles in radius. Before entering, it is difficult to obtain comprehensive information only by listening to the description of the leading troops and scouts.

When the army arrived on the edge of the mountain, it stopped for necessary rest and set up a temporary camp on the edge of the mountain.

Yang Rui was arranging the order of the troops entering the mountainous area. Hearing Liu Shen's report, he probably guessed what it was because of him. He was hesitant to see him or not, and let Liu Shen come in later.

"School Lieutenant Yang." Liu Shen saluted, and said: "This palace knows that he has a special identity. The guardian, the school lieutenant, and the leaders of the empire do not want this palace to be in danger."

Yang Rui heard Liu Shen's claim that he didn't respond in return before, but he bowed later to show respect.

"Since the palace was sent to the army by the emperor, it is natural to obey the orders of the generals, but..." Liu Shen Zhunen's face was sincere: "The palace knows that his identity is special and you have to be cautious. I don’t want to cause too much trouble for you. But if there is a danger, the house will be transferred immediately, but this is not what the house wants."

"His Royal Highness." Yang Rui saluted again and said solemnly: "The Romans' cooperation is too abnormal. Although we know that they have the habit of taking effect, we still suspect that they have something to do. They all have the determination to die. Only then will they be willing to bear the shame of being captured. If not, the warriors who are also powerful nations have the habit of acting in battle, so how can they accept such a sharp contrast of identity."

"They probably want to get the gunpowder of the big man?" Liu Shen was puzzled: "Why have they guessed their intention to surrender, but still don't make a firm deal?"

"His Royal Highness is the eldest son of a big man. He must know that any decision in the army is a decision made by a small number of high-level officers. The soldiers have no power to know." Yang Rui simply said the words thoroughly: "More than three thousand Romans, know After the surrender, there will be only a small number of people who really intend to, and most of them are kept in the dark."

Liu Shen was even more puzzled: "It is the senior officers who can get the resolution. The goal is obvious."

"Due to some reasons, Dahan's reputation among all ethnic groups is very bad, and Duhu decided to use some prisoners to make a fuss to improve Dahan's reputation." Yang Rui said of this, and his teeth were a little bit sore: "Many things are a rat avoidance. We guess what they will do and take action before they don’t.”

Liu Shen didn't hear it so clearly. He only felt that it was a very easy solution, but it was complicated.

"If we first deal with the senior military officers among the Romans, it will be difficult to confirm whether they are cleaned up." Yang Rui saw Liu Shen's confusion and explained patiently: "If there is no prerequisite to reverse the reputation of the big man, naturally it is not necessary. To have any scruples is to kill all the Romans and kill them all. It is the need to be scrupulous about fame, and dealing with it is likely to cause those unknown Roman soldiers to fear and violence. Once they are violent. , Our remaining choice is to kill, and then sit down and settle the rumors that the big man is in..."

When Yang Rui spoke in such detail, Liu Shen could understand it.

"I, the eldest son of a great man, must have the character of taking responsibility. If I get away from trouble, how do people in the world treat it?" Liu Shen said in the form of an order: "Please temporarily strengthen the military in this palace. This palace wants Deal with it yourself!"

"This..." Yang Rui naturally couldn't say that Liu Shen didn't have the right to give orders to him at all. He hesitated and said, "If the general protector ordered..."

The two went to see Li Kuang in the Great Account of the Chinese Army.

"Does your Highness really want to do this?" After listening, Li Kuang was silent for about five minutes before asking, and after receiving Liu Shen's respectful and resolute reply, he nodded: "So, Kuang is willing to take the risk. It's just your Highness, no Next time."

Liu Shen was stunned for a moment, and didn't understand what it was that there was no next time. Is it to disobey the military order, or to take a risk?

Putting the imperial emperor's eldest son in danger was not something that Yang Rui could carry.

Li Kuang is the Protector, and his shoulders are a bit heavier than Yang Rui, but if something happens to Liu Shen, even the Protector will not have any good results.

"Duhu, you..." Song Ping wanted to speak out several times just now, as he tried his best to endure it in view of the authority of his boss. He looked at Li Kuang's face with a wry smile, and followed it with a wry smile: "Our majesty is worthy of being taught by your majesty himself."

In fact, it’s not easy. I’m only eleven years old. I used to live in Miyagi with excellent conditions. I didn’t complain when I came to the army. What they knew was that Liu Shen violated the military order for the first time today. Favorable military order.

"The next arrangement has a long history." Li Kuang stood up when he spoke, and his wry smile was replaced with a serious expression: "His Royal Highness is brave to do things and does not want to evade responsibility. Some thought it was a good thing, and he treated the big man very much. Great thing."

Song Ping admitted that Li Kuang was right. If Liu Shenming knew what might happen but he happily implemented the military order, then Liu Shen would be the heir of the Han Empire under the premise that it is highly likely to be the heir to the Han Empire~www.wuxiamtl.com~Han The future of the empire is worrying.

It was precisely after thinking through that layer of truth that Li Kuang chose to carry it under the premise that he knew that he could not afford it. He cannot attack Liu Shen's courage to take responsibility for this aspect, but he will definitely not let things develop in the future.

"Guardian." Song Ping shouted before Li Kuang was about to go to the big tent, and said to Li Kuang who turned around: "Compared with the safety of your Highness, you can kill three thousand Romans as soon as they are killed."

Li Kuang paused, then turned and left again. Not only will he strengthen Liu Shen's military strength, he will inevitably deploy necessary heavy troops around him, and at the same time, he will personally go over and pay attention to the movements of the Romans at any time.

Liu Shen, who returned to the direct unit, he somewhat guessed that his actions would cause new changes in the large unit, but there was no regret.

"Marquis." Xu Guang didn't know what Liu Shen was talking about after he left. He knew that Liu Shen not only came back by himself, but besides the two thousand troops Qin Song had brought before, there were obviously a lot more troops around him: "Duhu Have you agreed?"

Liu Shen said boredly: "I probably got close to the Sassanid border and will be sent back to Chang'an."
