The Three Kingdoms

Relying on Lu Meng's means and Sun Quan's reward, this legion has gradually formed an organizational system.

They were willing to fight for Great Wu, not because of righteousness, not because of hatred, but because of interests. Sun Quan cleverly used this temptation to completely tie them to the warship of the Wu army.

"Military orders are like mountains!"

Hearing this, the generals opened their pupils slightly, and squinted at a figure sitting on the left. This figure was indifferent and silent, but with a dark face, it made them all look like Wei Jun, and their eyeballs flickered.

Army and pirates are different after all.

Military law is the worst aspect of the Skeleton Legion. The Department of Maintenance of Military Justice has established a military law department in the Skeleton Legion. The chief of the Military Law Department is the number one black-faced god under the command of the Chief of Military Justice Department Han Tao. He is also from Jinyiwei. Mo.

In the past six months of rectification, every high-ranking general present has basically experienced military law, and those who were punished by Liao Mo were desperate for life, so they naturally trembled a little towards him.

"Sidra is right, the military order is like a mountain!"

Lu Meng took a deep breath: "Cao Zhen!"

"exist!"

Cao Zhen was later dispatched to the Skeleton Corps, serving as the commander of the No.80 Army. The most basic means.

Moreover, Cao Zhen is also a mighty general. He has served under the Guanzhong Army for many years and has made countless contributions. Now he is highly valued by Sun Quan. Among the younger generation in the army, he is very popular.

"The fleet of the No.80 Army is the vanguard. Within five days, it will sail to the western waters and break through the first line of defense in the western waters. The Edward Pirates, this pirate group is not easy, so be careful!"

Lu Meng said in a low voice.

Going out of the Egyptian sea, going west will directly enter the west of the Roman sea.

Back then, the Skeleton Pirates also tried to go west, but after repeated setbacks, Lu Meng gave up going west.

The western and eastern parts of Roman seas were not the same.

Although there are many pirate regiments in the west, they are all composed of the power of the great nobles in the city of Rome. Every pirate regiment here has the strength of a small regiment of the Italian Legion. No problem.

After all, because of the Italian peninsula, the west is the core of the Roman Empire's rule over the Roman sea.

Although the Sea Eagle Legion has already held the Italian Legion of the Roman Empire in the Greek waters, it does not mean that there is no force to hinder the progress of the Skeleton Legion.

What follows will be a bloody battle.

This is the bloody battle that the skeleton army must face.

And Lu Meng let Cao Zhen be the vanguard, the purpose is very simple, to strengthen Cao Zhen's majesty and weight in the Skeleton Army.

No matter how famous Cao Zhen is among the youths of the Wu army, no matter how much Cao Zhen has contributed to the Guanzhong Army, in this army, he is just a piece of paper, and the skeleton veterans like Sidra must have some distrust of him. Running in trust smoothly is his homework as the chief general.

He must let Cao Zhen integrate into the Skeleton Army.

"The last general obeys!" Cao Zhen naturally knew Lu Meng's kindness, and he was also confident that he could gain a foothold in the Skeleton Army, so he brazenly led the vanguard mission.

"Report to the Commander!"

The commander of the No.70 Seventh Army, Zhu Ran, another Wu commander among the five commanders of the Skeleton Army, stood up and said: "Commander Cao is not familiar with the situation and climate problems in the Roman sea area. The Army dispatched a division team to guide the No.70 Army's advance!"

"allow!"

Lu Meng heard the words, thought for a while, and nodded.

[Text 480 Chapter [-] Lu Meng's Advance]

In this era, the Roman sea area meant a piece of sea area within the territory of the Roman Empire, roughly equal to the Mediterranean Sea in later generations.

The sea area of ​​the Mediterranean Sea is actually very large, surrounded by the three continents of Asia, Africa, and Europe.

In this era, sea navigation technology was not very powerful. Roman warships were all wooden warships, which were relatively fragile and unable to sail far, unable to go out of the Atlantic Ocean, let alone the Indian Ocean, which made this sea area even more huge.

At the same time, this sea area is also a sea arena in the Roman Empire, where the struggles between the countries and nations conquered by the Roman Empire are full.

The Roman Empire was huge.

However, the empire that conquered a large area by the Southern Expedition and the Northern Expedition was very complicated. The composition of the Romans consisted of too many races and kingdoms. Repress the empires of Western Europe.

Therefore, this is a sea area where countless forces in the empire intersect.

This sea area is divided into the eastern sea area and the western sea area in the empire, with the Italian peninsula, Sicily, and the Tunisian Strait as the middle boundary, dividing the east and west boundaries.

The eastern waters are roughly the Syrian waters, the Strait of Antioch, the Greek waters, and the Egyptian waters.

Among them, the Greek sea is the widest and strongest.

The Greek sea area is the Aegean Sea. The Aegean Sea has a vast territory and complex terrain. Relying on Greece, it is a place that is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

At present, the Italian Legion has gathered four full legions under its command, with 10,000+ main forces, centered on the Greek peninsula, against the majestic and well-equipped First Navy Sea Eagle Corps of the Wu Army.

Under the confrontation between the two armies, the war is imminent.

The western waters of the Roman Sea are centered on the Italian waters, distributed in the African Seas in the south, the Tunisian Strait, the Gaul Seas, and the Balearic Islands and the Strait of Gibraltar that connects the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean.

This sea area is located on the west side of the Roman sea area, between the North African province of Africa and the north-south intersection of the Italian peninsula. Although in terms of sea area, this sea area may not be as large as the eastern sea area, but here is the city of Rome connecting the entire Roman Empire. The traffic channel in the southwestern region of China.

This place is several times more lively than the eastern sea area, whether it is caravans or pirates.

In the era when Emperor Trajan of the Roman Empire was in power, the imperial army began to march eastward, and the army marched eastward, capturing Egypt, Syria, Arabia and other provinces. Only then did the eastern sea area develop, but before that, the political center of the Roman Empire had always been Areas north of Rome and west of the Mediterranean.

If the focus of the entire Roman Empire on the sea is still in the western seas.

As the first and only regular naval legion under the Roman Empire, the Italian Legion was established in the western seas that year.

However, when the Roman Empire entered the era of Kandomaut, the policies of the empire changed a lot. In order to stabilize the interests of the aristocratic class in the empire, or the support of the Senate, Kandemao took the initiative to let go of the interests of the western sea area, and even took the guard of Italy. The legion moved eastward, built a maritime defense based on the Greek peninsula, and suppressed the turmoil in the eastern sea area. This caused a strange situation in the western sea area. There was no regular army guarding it, but the order was the best here.

Because this place is filled with the naval forces of the major noble families in the empire. Although these forces are secretly pirate groups and are not under the rule of the empire, they have maintained a tacit understanding. Not against the Empire.

In this sea area, many fleets in the name of pirates are actually soldiers and horses secretly cultivated by the nobles in the Roman Empire. The purpose is to ensure the interests of the nobles in the empire.

Therefore, the power in the west of the Roman sea area is more than a little stronger than that in the eastern sea area. Even if the entire Italian army rushes there, it may not be able to suppress the power in this sea area.

As for the middle boundary that separates the two parts of the entire Roman sea area, it is actually a barrier, a powerful barrier that protects the city of Rome.

Because of this barrier, even if Lu Meng had developed and grown in the eastern waters in the past and was able to fight against the Italian army of the regular Roman army, he would not have dared to step half a step into the western waters.

Located to the north of this barrier is the isolation zone composed of the Italian Peninsula and Sicily.

The border barrier on the south is the Tunisian Strait.

In this era, the Tunis Strait belonged to the northern territory of the province of Africa, extending from the city of Tunis to the north sea area. This strait connected the province of Africa and Sicily.

And the most important fortress in this strait is the island of Carthage.
