The Three Kingdoms

"Report to the army commander, the injury report of the independent army has come out!"

Il is a Parthian, but it has been two years since he surrendered to the Wu Dynasty. At the beginning, he was very awkward in Chinese, but now the Chinese is very fluent. It means that the accent is a bit awkward, but he can listen and communicate. Not bad.

"Say!"

Upon hearing this, Ma Chao said calmly.

Killing one thousand enemies, self-defeating eight hundred, tens of thousands of soldiers and horses rushed into the 10,000+ Roman army. Although he hit them suddenly, but also let them bite back with bruises all over his body. He was already prepared in his heart. This battle There must have been heavy casualties.

"Our Independence Army had eighteen thousand casualties, the highest number of casualties among all armies. Ten thousand were killed, 270 were disabled, [-] were seriously injured, and [-] were slightly injured!" Il felt a little heavy. These were all Parthians. Although he had prepared himself, he was still sad.

"The battle of Seleucia City, the battle of Uruk City, and two consecutive battles, my independence army was defeated!"

Ma Chao's eyes dimmed, and he let out a long sigh: "The casualties are all Parthians, Il, have you ever regretted fighting with me?"

"The army commander often said that only those who work hard on the battlefield can survive. On the battlefield, we have regrets!"

Il was very open about it.

In the past, he was a little unwilling to surrender to the Great Wu court.

But in recent years, although the Parthians have not lived very well, they are not bad, at least they have not been treated as slaves. You must know that in the battle between Parthia and Rome, most of them were slaves after losing.

There may be some chaos in the land of resting in the three states, but after the Great Wu Dynasty established the Governor's Mansion of the Three States in Parthia, the order became much better, and the lives of the people began to improve a lot.

He believes that there is nothing wrong with surrendering. If they persist, the Parthians will face genocide.

The most important thing is that he now has a role model.

Singer, one of the five commanders of the Snow Leopard Army.

This is a man from Guishuang. Although he is only an army commander now, he has already been named a third-rank Duke in terms of title, and he is still above the Marquis of Taishici. In order to appease the land of Guishuang, the imperial court made him a real duke, which also made many Guishuang people one of them in the Great Wu court.

Today, 80.00% of the translators in the military are from Guishuang Prefecture.

In the land of Guishuang, east and west, they have many people who understand Chinese, and many people understand Anxi and Roman languages, making them the best candidates for translators.

Singer can do it, so can Il. He believes that one day, he will bring honor to the Parthian clan and bring a better life to the Parthian people, so he has been fighting hard.

"Commander, there is one thing that is unknown at the end!" Yi Er looked at Ma Chao and said suddenly.

"Say!"

"Commander, before you were just going to fight, you fought when there was a war, you didn't invite to fight, but since you entered Mesopotamia, you have been inviting to fight, repeatedly inviting to fight, and making great achievements. , so what?"

Il was a little disgusted at the beginning when Ma Chao parachuted into the independent army dominated by Parthians. Although he was overwhelmed by Ma Chao's force and arrogance, he always wanted to understand the character of this general. past.

He knew that Ma Chao was not actually a general from the Great Wu army, he was a descendant of the defeated princes in the Central Plains, and he was also a criminal general who needed to pay his crimes and make meritorious deeds.

"The past is the past, the present is the present!"

A wry smile rose from the corner of Ma Chao's mouth, and said: "In the past, I didn't need to make meritorious service, but now, I need meritorious service, I must make meritorious service, I need to be valued by the court, and I need meritorious service to be recognized by the people. I have made meritorious service, and it is also a credit to the Independence Army." , The Independent Army now has [-] soldiers as the main force, far exceeding the strength of an army, and there are tens of thousands of reserve soldiers in Taixi Fengzhou, I estimate that the Military Aircraft Department will soon expand the Independent Army into a legion!"

There are three states in the Anxi Territory, and Taixifeng Prefecture is the western part of the Anxi Territory, with Taixifeng as its capital.There are many reserve troops in Taixi Fengzhou, all of which are reserve military service for the Independent Army. Basically, they are young and strong Parthians recruited from the Anxi territory through the reputation of Il.

This is why the independent army has been fighting continuously, and the battle must be fought first. The battle damage is so great, but the reason why it can replenish its troops in time.

"can you?"

When Il heard this, his eyes lit up slightly, but he was a little worried: "Under the formation of the Wu army, the regular combat army only has ten legions, and the Military Aircraft Department will not easily increase the number of one legion, and we Parthians still let the court know how many people we have. I'm a little apprehensive, there were a lot of rebellions last year, the imperial court won't let us Parthians form an independent legion, right?"

Expanding a legion is not only a question of strength, but also a question of status.

Although the Parthians have surrendered to the court.

However, in the vast territory of the Parthia Empire in the past, there were actually some guerrilla forces that rebelled against the imperial court. There were also many Parthian youths in the mountainous areas of various places who were pulling up teams to resist the rule of the Wu Dynasty. For the Wu Dynasty, the Parthians were still A hidden danger.

"Will do!"

Ma Chao smiled, stretched out his hand, patted him on the shoulder, and said: "We have a reserve force, and we can pull out a hundred thousand main forces at any time. We have won consecutive battles and made countless achievements. The Military Aircraft Department will naturally consider it. Besides, our Majesty has no heart." Such a young man, if he dares to use the Parthians, he will not be afraid of the Parthians rebelling!"

"Is it because of this reason that the commander is willing to contribute to the battle?"

El narrowed his eyes slightly.

"That's it!"

Ma Chao nodded, and said: "I can't watch the independent army we created with difficulty and finally become a legion, but let other people pick the fruit. It's best that my cooperation with you has always been very pleasant! "

Although he is a criminal, he is not alone.

Ma Yunlu would send him a letter every month. In the letter, he would gather family life and tell him about the trends of the court, so that he could understand the trends of the court.

Behind Ma Yunlu is Zhao Guogong's mansion.

The Twelve Dukes of Great Wu, in the imperial court, both military and political, are all powerful political factions. I don't know how many officials are behind them, so Zhao Yun naturally doesn't talk about me.

She naturally knew what was going on in the court.

Ma Chao has also thought it over these years. He can't live with the past forever. For the honor of the Ma family, he should stand up again. If he wants to stand up, he must have merit.

"The final general is willing to follow the army commander and fight for Rome!"

El nodded, bowed his head and said.

Even if the Independent Army expands to a legion, he will not be the commander of the legion, because his prestige among the Parthians is too high, and the court doesn't care about this, so it must be a Wu person to lead the legion.

He knew Ma Chao. Ma Chao was born in Xicui, Central Plains, and he would not discriminate against him as a Parthian. If the general was changed, he might not be so kind.

"Il, the Parthians will not fail me, and I, Ma Chao, will never fail the Parthians!"

Ma Chao looked at Yi Er's statement and heaved a sigh of relief.

He can only rely on the Parthian-dominated independent army here. This is his only chance, and this is also his trump card for a comeback. He naturally hopes that the Parthians can join his sincere alliance again.

"Commander, the Parthians value promises. If you have a promise, I am willing to do my best to help!" Il said firmly.

"Then let's fight together!"

Ma Chao nodded, and he said softly: "Il, after you return to the army, go immediately to appease the morale of the army. With the huge casualties, the soldiers must complain. We have made enough contributions now. The operation of Shang Zhao Guogong’s and Wei Guogong’s mansions in the court is enough for the Military Aircraft Department to consider promoting the Independent Army to the City’s Independent Army. It is necessary to examine the attitude of the Parthian soldiers towards the imperial court. If the soldiers in the army have complaints and complain about the imperial court, it will inevitably bring changes to this matter. We have paid so much, won successive battles, and suffered heavy casualties. For this hope, I will not allow anyone to sever our hope!"

"I will understand at the end!"

Il nodded and left with fists in his arms: "Don't worry, Commander, I will try my best to appease every Parthia soldier!"

In the empty tent, Ma Chao sat cross-legged peacefully, his tiger eyes burst into a scorching light, and he muttered to himself: "Zhao Zilong, I put all my hopes on you!"
