Mythic version of the Three Kingdoms

Chen Xi’s statement that there is no food in Rome and the only choice is to eat meat. It is not completely nonsense. Because Rome is close to the Mediterranean Sea, the fishery output is not bad. At least when there is no choice, it is more realistic to rely on the sea to eat. Condition.

  The only problem is that it has not rained in most areas of Rome for more than two months. This is really outrageous. This is the real cause of the turmoil in the Roman Empire.

  Compared to the barbarian rebellion, a disease like this, a long drought, and watching the granary bottom out, the turmoil caused by some barbarians' messy ideas is much more outrageous.

  Judging from what Chen Xi has received so far, the impact of the severe drought in Rome is much greater than the losses caused by the mess in the past few years.

  "Is this so? I remember that Rome also has the ability to control the weather and has pretty good hydraulic equipment." Liu Bei recalled the various information Jian Yong brought back from Rome, and looked at Chen Xi strangely, "Normally it shouldn't be like this Exaggerate."

  "It's too serious. Just like I can't solve the snow disaster, Rome can't solve the drought. What we both have is not the ability to completely control the weather, but the ability to adjust the climate to a certain extent. This ability has limits." Chen Xi He said rather sadly.

  "As for the hydraulic facilities, the Apennine Peninsula where Xianhe went at that time was the core area. Of course, it was done well. Rome would not invest such a large amount of money in other places. The most important point is Rome's tax package system. This year is also a bit outrageous." Chen Xi sighed and said.

  The current situation in Rome, if we really want to say it, is actually a combination of natural and man-made disasters. If they were separated, it would not lead to the outrageous situation it is now.

  The tax system was originally very frustrating, but this year's situation was even more frustrating. When Chen Xi sent someone to send food and grass from Media, he also investigated the tax situation in Rome this year. First of all, Pompi After calculating the overall situation in Rome, Annus planned to collect a tax of [-] billion. This level was not only not high, but also quite low. It could not support layers of outsourcing.

  The essence of the tax package system lies in these layers of outsourcing.

  Take the Spanish province as an example. Assume that the tax subcontracted by this province is [-] million. After it is distributed to the senators, the subcontracted tax by the senators becomes [-] million. After all, the senators also need to eat. Part of it is normal, but after the senators transferred it to the knight class, it became a billion. After all, the knight class has many people and they also need to eat.

  If the knight class is transferred to citizens, it will become almost [-] billion. After all, the existence of the Roman Empire is not to support citizens.

  Although the data expansion is not that outrageous, the general meaning is this. This tax was set at the beginning of the year, and now it has to be collected at the end of the year. It has been subcontracted layer by layer. The situation this year is a bit bad. It is indeed necessary to collect it. Somewhat difficult.

  But no matter how difficult it is, it still has to be collected. After all, the citizens really have rich experience in forcing taxes. In short, it is causing anger and resentment.

  "Are the Romans so outrageous?" After Liu Bei heard this, everyone was dumbfounded. The emperors of the Han Dynasty knew which areas were affected by disasters and reduced taxes for which areas. Rome was so miserable this year, but instead of cultivating health and recuperating, they even asked for it. Isn't this asking for death if you risk your life to collect taxes?

  "You can't say that. Taxes in Rome were outsourced at different levels. Everyone was responsible for the higher level. Moreover, the system was destined that if citizens could not collect the money, they would have to pay for it themselves. So in this matter, Citizens are really hardworking." Chen Xi had a helpless expression.

  The contradiction currently playing out in Rome is the contradiction between citizens and other non-citizens. Although this kind of contradiction existed before, in the past this kind of contradiction was at most a contradiction of interests. Now it is a contradiction of life and death. Citizens also find that they cannot collect taxes this time. They are afraid that they will be finished, so between wanting to finish themselves and others being finished, they naturally choose that others will be finished.

  The reason why there is a war in Rome is because everyone is fighting to survive. There is nothing we can do about it. Chen Xi estimates that according to this year's gameplay, by the time Pompianus reacts, there will probably be millions of people dead in Rome. .

  After all, what about the tax system? Even if such a large country notices the problem, it will take a while to turn around. In addition, Chen Xi really doesn’t understand what the Eastern Province wants to do. What Ganassis is doing now The incident highlighted something outrageous.

  As the Duke of the Eastern Border Counties, Ganassis had many outrageous functions, but normally he would not use these functions, because that would easily make him hostile to the Roman Emperor.

  After all, the battle between dukes and emperors continued directly from Roman times to after the Middle Ages.

  As Ganassis, who has always shown sufficient political consciousness and a sufficient perspective on the overall situation, has been avoiding this situation, and even got along well with Severus in such a sensitive place.

  But this time it was outrageous. The eastern provinces were completely out of food and grass. Chen Xi couldn't understand what Ganassis wanted to do. Although the support given by the Han Dynasty was just that to Rome, it was still the goodwill of the official release in the past. , and as a result, Ganassis really disappeared.

  As for the Eastern Province's lack of food and the disappearance of Gansis, Chen Xi could bear it. After all, the Duke was such a creature. He was out of food. It was normal to eat some other people's food. Even the emperor's food came from him. It's not a strange thing to be washed away over there.

  But the Eastern Province is not short of food. The severe drought is in the Mediterranean area, not the Eastern Province. The Eastern Province with the Euphrates and Tigris Rivers is now very prosperous. But in this case, Ganassis actually dared to drift No, what should I say? Are you asking about the importance of the tripod?
  There is no other way. Apart from this reason, Chen Xi can't find any suitable reason. It is really outrageous. After going to Northern Europe with Severus, has the Duke of Rome become so rampant?

  "This is too ugly. In my impression, Ganassis has always shown a moderate attitude towards advancement and retreat, and there is almost no embarrassing moment." Liu Bei frowned. He couldn't understand what Ganassis was doing. It is said that Rome is now in a state of disgrace. Han Han, as the Duke of the eastern border county, has a large amount of food and grass under his command. If nothing else, he must at least contribute a part to Rome.

  But the current situation, how should I put it, after moving from Syria to Ctesiphon and occupying the so-called essence of Parthia, this is completely letting go, floating, right?

  "Anyway, no one knows what's going on now, but one thing is that it would be a good time for Ganassis to rebel now." Chen Xi said calmly. If considered from a normal political perspective, Ganassis's behavior is outrageous, but if considered from a rebellion perspective, then Ganassis's behavior is too reasonable. However, the biggest problem is that although the eastern border counties It's not considered trash, it can beat those gods in the Apennine Peninsula.

  How should I put it? It is true that the main force of Rome has set out to conquer Northern Europe, but the remaining legions and the gods sitting in the Senate are not enough to defeat Ganassis.

  "Forget it, don't worry about them, just take care of ourselves first." Chen Xi curled his lips and said, "The generals on the Ganges River have withdrawn in large numbers. I guess Guishan will not take the initiative to tear up the alliance letter. , the situation in Kushan is not very good now.”

  The Blazing Sky Ring brought blizzards to the Han Dynasty, drought to Rome, and floods to the Kushan Empire. Recently, the water in the Kushan Empire was more than one meter deep, and people in many places were directly soaked in the water. In short, the situation was also It's quite outrageous. According to Chen Xi's estimation, in this case, Guishang's desire to attack will be very low. Considering that Guishang has also been perfecting some secret techniques and tactics recently, they probably don't want to fight either.

  "When you come back, you and I will meet each other to deepen our impression." Liu Bei thought for a while and said. Liu Bei can basically guarantee that he knows every one of the generals who have returned. If he really wants to say that, there are generals that Liu Bei doesn't know. It’s really worth thinking about.

  "I have the same idea. It would be nice to meet up with them then." Chen Xi said expressionlessly. No matter what these people's thoughts were, being beaten by Liu Bei was a nip in the bud.

  In the next few days, more and more generals came back from the Ganges River. Liu Bei reviewed each batch one by one, then signed and sealed them. He chatted with these generals about the current situation and got a general understanding of the situation in the Ganges River.

  After meeting more than thirty generals, Liu Bei had his own understanding of the situation in the Ganges River. It can't be said to be very good, but it's certainly not bad enough to be ruined. Of course, a mouse excrement ruins a pot of soup. Liu Bei basically agreed.

  Although he could not directly see people's hearts, from these small talk and the previous performances of these generals, Liu Bei could roughly judge the stance of these people and what kind of thoughts they had.

  Generally speaking, the idiots were very happy to see Liu Bei. They were almost the same as before. They only told Liu Bei that if the Taiwei came to my house if he had a chance, I would buy good wine and prepare good meat. Please treat the Taiwei to a few meals. , it can be considered as a dream come true.

  On the contrary, those generals who had complicated thoughts in the past now seem to be overthinking. Liu Bei tried his best to comfort these generals and try not to let these people think wildly, but Liu Bei could not guarantee the final outcome.

  After Liu Bei met with a large number of generals in a few days, the entire north was covered by the sudden snowstorm, and the winter snow of Yuanfeng's ninth year had become heavier and heavier.

  "So, General Huangfu is finally going to take action?" Fazheng looked at the information sent by Huangfu Song and said with a strange expression.

  "There is no other way. If we don't take action, we will have no chance to do it. It is already close to the coldest time over there. This time can be said to be the strongest time of the White Disaster Legion." Guo Jia said with a calm expression, "But this year There is really nothing we can do about the abnormal weather.”

  When Huangfu Song of Northern Europe fought against Odin, he first superimposed the mycelium of the Lord of All Spirits, and then the air force blaster Odin. The combined forces of the Han Dynasty and Rome won a great victory, and Odin went directly into full defense, while Huangfu Song also realized that in the case of Odin's comprehensive defense, the Han-Luo coalition actually had no good solution. In addition, the elite reinforcements from the three empires were about to arrive, so Huangfu Song suppressed his violent heart and stopped fighting with Odin. Ding took action, which was also the reason for the armistice in Northern Europe.

  Huangfusong's suggestion at that time was to wait until November, the coldest time in Northern Europe. They would collect hundreds of thousands of white disasters, and rely on their talents to combine the weather to [-] or [-] degrees below zero, and wait for the blizzard to come in Northern Europe. Give Odin a fatal blow.

  This plan is outrageous, but it sounds powerful enough. In addition, Severus and Perennis are also very interested in the White Disaster talent, especially the talent combination mentioned by Huangfu Song, which is even more interesting. In line with the attitude of learning knowledge when you have knowledge, the two of them agreed.

  Of course, the most important thing is that after being beaten by Rome and the Han Dynasty, Odin finally began to integrate the remaining military command knowledge and combine it with the current human command knowledge to reshape the way of commanding the large army. There is no way, Odin used to The path of commanding a large army and the current commanding of a large army are completely different things. It means that they have been eliminated by the times to some extent.

  After all, Odin is also a main god, and there is still no problem in terms of talent. The reason why he was so badly beaten earlier is that the command of the mythical era is really not suitable for the current era, and the arrogant main god disdains human beings. The art of war created by weak creatures.

  As a result, the proud Lord God's face was beaten into pieces by weak humans. Naturally, he accepted the reality, actively absorbed human wisdom, and mastered the art of war created by humans.

  After having this awareness, Odin quickly began to make progress. In the subsequent small-scale battles, he truly demonstrated the normal quality of commanding the large army. When the situation developed to the present, Odin completely gave up the command method of the mythical era and specialized in After taking command of the human legion, the level has not only reached the peak human level like Huangfu Song, but has at least been close to Rahul's level.

  This was so uncomfortable that after October, the original offensive and defensive patterns changed directly. The Han-Luo coalition no longer took the initiative to attack, but the Odin Guards frequently provoked.

  There is no other way. If we continue to fight, when Odin completely absorbs the essence of human command and reaches the level of Rahul, five Rahuls command an army of one million, then the human coalition has nearly one million troops. , then it must be finished.

  After all, humans themselves are creatures that defeat their opponents collectively, and the command of the army has taken this advantage to the extreme. After Odin actually embarked on this path, he found that this path is indeed very good, abandoning the unnecessary face of the gods. After that, he gained more power.

  Even thinking about the time of Ragnarok, if he had this ability, he might be able to penetrate Ragnarok. Unfortunately, as a god at that time, he really believed too much in the so-called personal power and did not notice this more important thing. A bright future.

  I’ll make up for the extra story tomorrow. I woke up really late today. The new computer is really easy to use and can keep up with my typing speed.
