The Three Kingdoms

"East Expedition?"

As the first confidant of Emperor Severus, Friedrich, who was born in the Senate, was only 40 years old this year. He was in his prime, and he enjoyed all the power in the Roman Empire.

However, he is very clear that everything he has comes from this violent emperor Severus who is arbitrary and cannot be refuted by anyone.

"Your Majesty, are we going to fight the Parthian Empire?"

Friedrich asked respectfully.

"The Rest of the Empire?"

When Severus heard the words, a cold sneer rose from the corner of his mouth: "Fried, the Parthians have been defeated, and the Parthia Empire has become history. Our opponents come from the east, the far east!"

"Could it be from Eastern Wu?"

In the first battle of Mesopotamia, Friedrich personally made a plan and calculated the troops from the far east, so that the Roman army took the Mesopotamia region without any effort.

"That's right!"

Severus nodded, and said: "In the far east, an invincible overlord appeared. They sent troops to the west, conquered the Guishuang Empire, and conquered the Parthian Empire. They are about to fight our great Roman Empire warriors!"

"How could the Parthians be defeated so easily?"

Friedrich asked suspiciously.

"It's not that the Parthians are weak, but these Easterners are too powerful!"

Severus's face was unusually dignified, and he said word by word: "From the first time I saw the soldiers of the Orientals, I felt threatened. The great Roman Empire has met our most powerful opponent!"

He is the son of a knight, he believes in the horse under his lap and the knight's sword in his hand.

He was an emperor above the military power. He used the sword and spear in his hand to take the position of the Roman emperor and created the Severus era of the Roman Empire.

He deposed the right of the Senate.

He is a dictatorial emperor.

However, everything he has comes from his army, so Severus is a person above military power.

When he was an emperor, he first defined himself as a soldier.

He has a keen sense of military affairs that ordinary people do not have, which allowed him to conquer opponents one by one, quell the civil strife in Rome, and bring the Roman Empire to a glory comparable to that of Caesar and Augustus.

In Mesopotamia, he faced these soldiers from the east for the first time, and he had a strong feeling in his heart that this would be the most difficult opponent in his life.

Even though many generals under his command thought that the orientals were short in stature and weak in body, so they were not dangerous at all.

He still believes that this will be a powerful enemy of the Roman Empire.

So when he withdrew his troops from Mesopotamia, he sent troops to conquer the barbarians as quickly as possible. He just hoped that one day he would go to war with the Easterners without any worries.

Now that he has finally pacified the barbarians in northern Xinjiang, he can wholeheartedly prepare for these armies from the far east.

"Your Majesty, the Senate has condemned you for using troops for years and causing the people of the empire to live in dire straits. Isn't it too urgent for us to send troops to the East at this time!" Friedrich said in a low voice.

The Senate of the Roman Empire had great powers and could even depose the emperor.

When Severus came to power, he also got the support of the elders far away, so that he could quickly defeat several princes who had already established themselves in the empire, and ascended to the throne of emperor.

Of course, when he takes the position of emperor, how can he be controlled by others.

The power of the senate has been suppressed by him very low. It is different from Caesar the Great, who suppressed the senate by adding hundreds of seats among the elders far away, dividing the power of the senate and achieving control Purpose of the Senate.

However, the emperor Severus used the most direct and brutal method. In the Senate, those who did not obey him were killed by him. The blood and the strength of the army were intimidating, and the entire Roman Empire was his word.

"Let them object. As long as my soldiers do not object, I am still the supreme emperor of Rome. Whoever dares to object, my emperor's sword will penetrate his body!"

Severus arrogantly uttered a sentence above military power.

"Your Majesty, I will support you to the death!"

The generals bowed their heads and knelt to show their loyalty.

"Fried, I need you to go this time!"

"Your Majesty, please tell me, your most loyal servant will definitely do it for you!" Friedrich said in a deep voice.

"Vologasis V fled to northern Mesopotamia!" Severus said: "He still has many loyal generals under his command. Go and persuade him to surrender to our Roman Empire. I need more Fight for our great Roman Empire!"

"Your Majesty, will he submit to us?"

"He's just a lost dog. I'm willing to give him flowers, but if he doesn't want to take it, I can only give him a knight's sword!" Severus said coldly: "Tell him, I'm about to build my Rome." The Eighth Legion of the Empire is called the Parthian Legion, if he doesn’t want to be the general, I’ll ask someone to replace him!”

"Your Majesty, your faithful servant will surely take down the Parthian Legion for you!"

Friedrich said respectfully.

——————————————————————————————

Ten days later, on the battlefield of the Sicily River, the battle between the Roman Army and the Wu Army ended, and a battle report was sent back to Taixifeng City from the Sicily River in a hurry.

"It was a beautiful battle!"

"Although the number of enemy troops annihilated is not large, the Roman army's offensive has been defeated, and the next offense and defense will have to be reversed!"

"It's the first time for Lu Meng and Cao Xiu to cooperate. There is a tacit understanding between them. The cooperation between the two armies is so seamless. It is difficult and rare!"

"The 38th Army used the waterway to lure the Roman Army to attack, and the 46th Army ambushed halfway. Before and after, the timing must be accurately grasped. With such a cooperation, we dare not fight. The two of them are really brave!"

"It's good if you win. If you destroy [-] enemy troops, force them to retreat [-] miles, and completely defend the Sicily River, this battle will be considered a great victory!"

"After this battle, at least we can relax for a month for the main force!"

"The Roman army wants to recapture the Sicily River and enter the rest of the territory. They must use their main force. Once they use their main force, they will expose all their forces to us!"

"This is turning passive into active!"

This battle report sent back from the Sicily River made all the generals of the Snow Leopard Army applaud.

"Kong Ming, tell me!" Tai Shici narrowed his eyes slightly, and glanced at Zhuge Liang.

"Both Lu Ziming and Cao Wenlie performed much better than I expected!"

Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "Young man, don't underestimate him!"

"What I'm talking about is not this, but what should we do next?" Tai Shici said: "The Roman army lost a battle, but they didn't hurt their bones. They will counterattack soon. Should we also dispatch the main force? Go west!"

"Not urgent!"
