Three Kingdoms: copy Lu Bu's force at the beginning

Guliana and Karis were convinced, and Huayu began to integrate the army of the Guishuang Empire, and got [-] soldiers and horses.

One hundred thousand Qin army, one hundred thousand Guishuang army, one hundred thousand Tianzhu army, a total of 30 soldiers and horses.

The army rested for a few more days, and the Guishuang Empire had completely surrendered to Hua Yu's benevolent government, and the people's hearts were fully attached.

So, after a rest, Hua Yu led his army to continue westward, aiming at the next target: the Patia Empire.

This time, Hua Yu brought both Guliana and Karis with him on the expedition.

One is to prevent them from making any moths after they stay, and the other is to improve the morale of Guishuang's army and their loyalty.

But the Parthian Empire.

The Parthian Empire left behind a well-known tactic in history, called the Parthian tactic.

This tactic is actually very simple, that is, use cavalry archers to consume and harass, and then use heavy cavalry to rush into the formation to make up the knife.

The most famous application of this tactic was the Battle of Calle in 53 BC, which killed Crassus, one of the top three Roman giants.

The current ruler of the Parthian Empire is Vologassis V.

As explained earlier, this Vologassis V has an arrogant character.

Vologassis V had successfully suppressed the rebels of the eastern tyrant Osroes II, but lost to Severus of the Roman Empire.

One mountain cannot tolerate two tigers.

As a powerful country in the Mediterranean, Vologassis V was naturally very dissatisfied with Severus, not to mention the shame of being defeated once.

Therefore, Vologassis V naturally dismissed Severus sending someone to deliver the letter.

In front of Severus's envoy, Vologassis V ridiculed Severus and sent the envoy away.

Arrogance belongs to arrogance, but Vologassis V's war sensitivity is still very strong, and he sent a large number of scouts to the Guishuang Empire to inquire about the latest information.

However, what followed was not only the scouts of Vologassis V reporting the situation, but also the detailed work sent by Hua Yu to the Parthian Empire.

Soon, Vologassis V learned of these carefully disseminated news.

Of course Vologassis V was extremely furious, and immediately ordered that all those who spread the news be arrested.

But these people had been prepared for a long time, and after spreading the news, they immediately hid themselves.

Only a very small number of people didn't have time to hide, or the places where they hid were not tight enough, and they were arrested by the soldiers of the Parthian Empire.

Of course, those who caught more were the Parthian people who followed and spread the news.

After Vologassis V captured these people, they were all killed.

At the same time, Vologassis V ordered that anyone who dared to spread such remarks would be beheaded for public display.

Blocking is worse than sparse.

This move of Vologassis V really stopped the words that had just spread.

However, it also aroused strong dissatisfaction among the Parthian people.

Over there, although the Guishuang Empire was occupied by the Great Qin Empire, the common people got benefits and benefits, and became their masters.

But what about my own side?

The reign of Wologassis V was even more tyrannical and brutal than before.

Secretly, not only was the spread of this news not really stopped, but it was spreading faster and faster.

The speed of spread among ordinary people in the Parthian Empire was like the waves of the Mediterranean Sea, and soon swept the entire Parthian Empire.

One by one, the uprisings that were preparing to resist Vologassis V also began to be secretly planned.

All this, Vologassis V didn't know, he was rectifying his troops, preparing to fight Huayu who was coming.

The area of ​​the Parthian Empire was less than one-sixth of the Han territory.

The population, after years of war, is less than 700 million.

But the soldiers and horses of the Parthian Empire originally had a full 130 million. It is not too much to say that Vologassis V was militaristic.

However, in the battle with Severus, the Parthian Empire lost [-] troops.

In order to enhance his military strength, Vologassis V forcibly recruited another 30 troops, bringing the total number of troops to 150 million.

Even the mighty Roman Empire had a total military force of only a million.

This also caused the agricultural production of the Pasiya Empire to be greatly damaged. Many families could no longer eat and could only live on grass roots and bark.

With an army of 150 million, Vologassis V placed 50 on the border of the Roman Empire to guard against Severus.

Armenia in the northwest corner has [-] soldiers.

On the southern border, the Vologassis Empire has 20 soldiers, which are used to guard against those countries in the Arabian Peninsula.

As a result, Vologassis V's available soldiers were only 70.

If all the 70 soldiers and horses are used to fight against Hua Yu, I am afraid that Hua Yu's road to the west will not be so smooth.

If Vologassis V agreed to join forces with Severus, even with the addition of Gan Ning's navy, it would be difficult to wipe out the Roman Empire and the Parthian Empire.

However, Hua Yu's strategy of attacking the heart is, after all, the best military strategy in the world.

Just when Vologassis V was about to leave 60 soldiers and horses to defend various places, and raised [-] troops to fight against the Qin Army Alliance, an uprising suddenly broke out in the Parthian Empire.

The uprising was not one city, but many cities, and it seemed to be an agreement. There were more than a dozen uprisings on the first day.

By the next day, there were more than 30 uprising cities.

Moreover, many Parthian troops also participated in the uprising against the rule of Vologassis V.

This time, the Parthian Empire was in chaos, which disrupted Vologassis V's plan at once.

In desperation, Vologassis V had no choice but to change his strategy, and allocated 60 of the 20 troops to various cities in the country to suppress the rebellion.

As for the remaining 40 troops, Vologassis divided them into four groups of soldiers and horses, guarding the four cities on the border, each with [-] soldiers and horses.

Guard the country's gates first, and then switch from defense to offense after the rebellion in various places is quelled. This is the strategy of Vologassis V.

When the news reached the Roman Empire, Severus couldn't help yelling at Vologassis V for being stupid.

Severus immediately convened a council of elders to discuss countermeasures.

Under the strong recommendation of Severus, Zhuge Liang also became one of the elders of the Roman Empire, which is unique in the history of the Roman Empire.

There were nine members of the Council of Elders in the Roman Empire.

Originally, these nine people were very resistant to Zhuge Liang, a Han Chinese.

But Severus insisted and did not hesitate to use the emperor's privileges, so they reluctantly accepted the matter.

As a result, the House of Elders in the Great Roman Empire was divided into two factions.

The nine Roman elders are one faction.

Zhuge Liang himself is a faction.

It's just that Zhuge Liang knew his identity, kept a low profile in the elder's house, and generally didn't express his opinions, which made it impossible for the two sides to have any conflicts.
