Three Kingdoms: Becoming Cao Cao's Chief Adviser at the Start

Chapter 268 The rise of a great power, causing Rome to covet

The Slavs in the north of the steppe were actually the easiest people to contact and communicate with the Romans.

These Slavs were in constant migration, from the colder regions further north, all the way to Alexandria, and then north to Rome.

After obtaining a lot of fine wine from the Huns and Xianbei, the Slavs even sold the fine wine to Alexandria, which was controlled by the Romans along the way.

Soon, these wines were given to the Roman royal family because of their high alcohol content and strong aroma, and a bowl could suffocate a donkey.

Coincidentally, the emperor of the Roman Empire has just ended the chaotic era of the coexistence of five emperors and succeeded in ascending the throne.

This person was in charge of the Knight Corps early in the morning. He was a pure military commander with a strong personality. Like many soldiers, he also liked to drink.

After receiving the new batch of spirits, it is said that the emperor drank five jars in a row and slept for three days and three nights.

The first thing Severus said after getting up was, buy more wine!

However, he soon knew that this delicious spirit was in the same place as the soft silk!

"It's called Dawei now? Dawei... It's a fascinating place!"

Soon, he knew even more that this jar of fine wine could even buy a yard in the middle of the city of Lok Ma!

"I don't want to drink such expensive spirits for a few years, and I will directly make the empire poor? Come on, send me an ambassador to Wei, and tell them to lower the price for me, otherwise, my army of Severus will To step that big Wei into the ground!

Severus' arrogance also has his own confidence.

After ending the coexistence of the five emperors, Parthia was unified.

In the past, the Roman Empire was famous for its infantry and navy, and today's Roman Empire has even made up for the shortcoming of cavalry!

In other words, today's Roman Empire is invincible both on land and at sea.

It is no wonder that Severus is so confident that he directly plans to start a war if he disagrees!

However, his plan was soon unanimously rejected by the Senate.

Severus was only concerned with the war, but not so much with the existence of a more distant potential rival, the Kushan Empire.

The Senate is in charge of various government affairs of the Roman Empire. Although it is now suppressed by Severus, it still has a lot of information that Severus does not know.

"Severus! The Great Wei Empire is not so easy to provoke! I heard that the Guishuang Empire is now willing to be a puppet of the Great Wei, a servant. If you want to conquer the Great Wei, I am afraid that you will have to defeat Guishuang first!" 5

Severus immediately sneered: "The mere Guishuang is vulnerable! I have now captured Parthia, and the cavalry is also a must, whether it is field battle or siege, they are all invincible existences, how dare Guishuang stop me? 55

"Guishuang doesn't dare, so the big Wei behind him can't care? I heard that a lot of gold, silver and precious stones from Guishuang are flowing into the big Wei, and the big Wei will not leave such a fat sheep to you to slaughter!"

"So what? Add it up, and multiply it several times, and it's not as strong as my Rome! What are you afraid of?"

"However, I heard that Guishuang has the support of the Buddhist family. In Buddhism, I heard that there are strong people who are very powerful. If they also come to disrupt the situation, what should we do?"

Severus looked at the elders jokingly: "Is it true that the knights of the senate are eating dry rice? Does it mean that there is a knight named Jehovah who is extremely powerful and has cultivated a group of very strong followers? Has always been falsified, vulnerable?

The elders immediately frowned: "Emperor, Jehovah is a person with unlimited potential. If we escort him, we may be able to compete with Buddhism in the future. If we send him there, if something goes wrong, then our knights are really unmanned. Available now! Genius is rare!

"Geniuses fall so easily, what kind of knights are you going to join? Stop talking nonsense with me, if the Senate can't prove the value of your existence, your status will be further weakened! 35

The strength of Severus finally made the elders succumb. Soon, the Roman Empire was preparing to send troops. The land and sea armies were gathering in the east, and the knights controlled by the elders also traveled.

The number of knights is not large, there are only ten thousand people in total.

The leader dressed in very casual clothes, sat on the horse, looked at the army with compassion, looked at the people along the way, and looked at the far east.

"This trip, I want to let the people of the East know that there is only one true God in the world, and that is me, Jehovah! I want them to fall into my arms and let them know that if they surrender to me, they will be greeted by angels. If they do not obey me, they will Devoured by hell, entangled by Satan!" 5

A ferocious knight next to him heard the words and looked at him frantically: "God, what do you want me to do? Satan, always be ready to serve God!

Yahweh nodded: "You will appear soon, this will be your first battle, and your famous battle! After this battle, the world will know your horror, and all those who do not submit to me, you will Kill it all for me!"

The grim-faced man immediately nodded vigorously: "God! Satan swears his allegiance to the death and obeys God's will forever!"

Cao Yang, who is far away in Xudu, doesn't know about this yet, and is still working on it.

"Recently, this business is really good! If this momentum continues, my money will never run out!"

"Unfortunately, this "Tian Gong Kai Wu" is completely useless! There are so many ways to make money, and only a few can be implemented. Not only are there not enough talents, but the people are still poor, and there is not much money to buy more 650 new things! It seems that we still have to accumulate slowly! 35

Soon, Ju Shou came to report: "Your Majesty, there is a strange-looking person outside, with red and white skin, very tall and strong, and his clothes are different from ours. I heard from him that he came from Rome, claiming to be sent by the emperor of Rome. messenger, do you want to see him?

"Rome? What are they sending people to do?" Cao Yang frowned, with a strange look on his face.

The Roman Empire is an extremely great country in the West. After the Silk Road was opened up in the Han Dynasty, there was a habit of sending envoys to trade.

According to historical records, so far, this should be the fifth time.

Said to be messengers, in fact, is the official caravan of the Roman Empire.

According to the old habits, they would bring a lot of money in exchange for a lot of silk and go back to the royal family and the nobles of the senate.

Cao Yang immediately thought of doing business, so he said: "Let him come in, I can also go along and ask him a few questions! In the future, we will also send troops to conquer the Roman Empire. Now let's inquire about the situation. good!"

Ju Shou was stunned: "Where is this Rome, why have I never heard of it? Is it a small country? Your Majesty will send a team of people randomly to destroy it and finish it soon?"

Cao Yang suddenly laughed: "Danwan small country? You can't be arrogant, then Rome, you can't underestimate it, otherwise, you will suffer a big loss!
