The Three Kingdoms

With the city of Lyon as the center, a radius of hundreds of miles turned him into a battlefield. For this reason, at any cost, he mobilized most of the young and strong from the major cities in the Gaul province to defend this battle.

"People of Gaul, don't blame me for being cruel. If you can't keep Lyon, the empire will perish, and my Ross family will become the glory of the past!"

The reason why Sergey did not hesitate to pay the price, reputation, and the entire Gaul province, once again conscripted hundreds of thousands of slaves and young men to guard the city, was not only for the empire, but also for the Ross family.

The Ross family will only be honored if it is built on the Roman Empire.

For the empire, for the Ross family, Sergei did not hesitate to become a cold-blooded butcher.

"Vickers, you bastard whore, you lied to me again. There are only 10,000+ demons. This army of hundreds of thousands of demons is enough to destroy my Gaul province. If I can still live, I must Fuck you son of a bitch!"

Sergey rang out his best friend, the chief consul of the Gaul Legion, Vickers, with a relaxed smile on his lips: "May God bless you and me, so that you can survive smoothly!"

……

Silent night.

The camps outside the city are already under construction in full swing.

A simple Chinese army main account that has been built.

"Chen Fang, is there any news from the Fourth War Zone?" He Qi asked a deputy staff officer.

"Commander-in-Chief, there was an order from Jin Yiwei, saying that the third war zone encountered some troubles, and suffered setbacks in the battle to cross the sea and go north!"

"why?"

"I heard that the Skeleton Legion was surrounded by some fleets in the Roman waters and was unable to respond, leading to the failure of the river crossing battle!"

"Although Lu Meng is young, His Majesty is never wrong in judging people!"

He Qi narrowed his eyes slightly: "He won't disappoint His Majesty, will he?"

"Commander-in-Chief, it is not ideal to look forward to the northward reunion of the third war zone. As far as I know, even if they succeed in crossing the sea, a large-scale force will be formed in the southwest of the Roman Empire and in the Spanish provinces to stop it!"

"We have to believe in Zhao Zilong, but we also need to break through Lyon as soon as possible. Although we lead our troops southward, only by completing the strategy of joining forces in the west can we suppress the Roman troops and reinforcements in the entire west!"

He Qi raised his head, his eyes were calm, he stared at the city wall and drank with a loud voice.

There are more than a dozen provinces in the west of the Roman Empire, and it is too close to the Italian provinces. Even if there is not a regular legion, as long as the governors of the provinces organize the king's army to rush to the Italian provinces, it will be enough for the main force of the Wu army.

Now it's up to their performance.

Only by holding down the war potential of the entire west can the Italian provinces be isolated and helpless, and the main force break through the city of Rome, thus laying the groundwork for this battle.

"I'll give you one night to make a siege strategy for each of you. I want to see it before the siege tomorrow morning!"

"promise!"

More than a dozen lieutenant generals in the theater nodded and took orders, lighting up the lights and thinking at night.

**************************

On the surface of the sea, the storm is very fast, layers of waves are rolling, and layers of waves are covered.

In this stormy weather, a breakout campaign is brewing.

Surrounded by the Skeleton Legion.

For a whole month, the Skeleton Legion lost three battles and three defeats. Not only did it fail to break through the encirclement and enter the Balearic Islands and Spanish waters, but it was also suppressed between the straits of Cape Roja with a radius of [-] nautical miles.

There were five thousand warships around, and hundreds of thousands of troops surrounded them.

The storm was getting worse, and the night was cold.

The Skeleton Legion moored in a narrow strait has only more than 2000 warships left, and nearly one-third of its troops have been consumed. Morale is low. The soldiers complained that the morale of the army was close to collapse.

This legion founded by Westerners encountered its first crisis.

On the deck of the Skull, Lu Meng stood facing the wind and rain, his eyes were gloomy and uncertain.

"Commander!" It was Cao Zhen who came up.

"Zidan, how is your No.80 Army doing?" Lu Meng asked.

The other four army commanders under his command are all old subordinates. Only Cao Zhen, the general dispatched from the Guanzhong Army, has not completed the initial harmony. Now that he has suffered such a disastrous defeat, it will inevitably lead to conflicts between the generals and the soldiers.

"Not optimistic!"

Cao Zhen smiled wryly: "In the battle the day before yesterday, the casualties were too high. Our army suffered more than 100 battlefield casualties and tens of thousands of soldiers died in battle. This has already caused their psychological pressure, and their dissatisfaction with my command erupted. Once it rises to racial If there is a quarrel between them, they will completely turn against each other!"

Non-my family, its heart must be different.

Cao Zhen didn't trust the Western soldiers under his command very much. The more critical it was, the more difficult it was for him to feel at ease.

"I believe in your command. Under my command, you are the only one who can stand alone. Even Zhu Ran is a little tender. The other generals are just fierce generals. It's okay to charge into battle, but not to command generals!" Lu Meng patted Cao Zhen on the shoulder. , he still loves this general from the Cao family.

It has been nearly ten years since the Great Wu Dynasty destroyed Cao Wei, and all the hatred that had been there has disappeared. These years of fighting side by side in the West have established a lot of friendship among comrades in arms. The so-called surrendered generals of the Wei people have already been integrated into the Wu army system.

The Skeleton Army is the No.16 army of the Wu Army, and it is also a new army with a weak foundation and not many capable generals. Lu Meng's most fancy is Cao Zhen, a general who has both offensive and defensive skills and can stand alone.

"Thank you Commander for your trust!"

"I have a way to defeat the enemy!" Lu Meng said suddenly.

"Please tell the commander!"

"36 plan, bitter plan!"

"Bitter tricks?" Cao Zhen narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Davis!" Lu Meng snorted.

"Master Poseidon!" A Roman came out. He was not very old, about thirty years old, tall and tall, tall and burly, with a beard on his face, very rough.

"This is the first pirate to surrender to me that year. Over the years, I have encountered danger several times in Roman waters because of his desperate efforts to save him. I trust him the most!"

"My life was saved by adults. In this world, I only trust adults!"

Davis said calmly.

"What does the commander want to do?" Cao Zhen asked.

"Tomorrow, there will be a show between you and a fight, and then I will directly punish him severely. There must be some Roman spies in our army watching. If you can show dissatisfaction, you have a reason to surrender before the battle. His Majesty said one thing, surrender must require a certificate of surrender, and he will bind you to surrender, you have the courage to go there!"

Lu Meng asked calmly.

This is a trick to surrender.
