"As a regular naval force of the Roman Empire, the Italian Legion should currently be guarding the Greek waters and defending our offensive navy. After all, Greece is also a gap in Italy. Once Greece is breached, our navy can go straight to Sicily from the sea and enter Italian peninsula!"
"As for the Gaul Legion, according to our information, this legion should now be the Gaul province in the northwest, resisting the attack of our troops in the third theater, but now it is obvious that since this main force appears in the The city of Milan means that he has been dispatched into the Italian province!"
Pang Tong spoke very carefully.
These are all the information he extracted from the battle reports that have been submitted recently.
"wrong!"
Zhuge Liang spoke suddenly.
"Kong Ming, what's the matter?" Pang Tong looked at Zhuge Liang and asked.
"The Roman Empire not only had nine legions, but three more!"
Zhuge Liang said.
"There are three legions?"
Everyone was stunned.
Somewhat strange.
After all, with the establishment of the Roman legion, the three large legions have at least 60 to [-] troops, which they have never encountered before.
Chen Gong was the first to react. With a flash of inspiration, he said quickly: "The chief of the general staff should be talking about the three recruits formed by Severus, whom none of us have seen before!"
"There is such a thing!"
Zhugejin looked through some files sent by Jinyiwei, and said: "But according to the news from Jinyiwei's supervision, since Severus was killed in the coup, these three legions have been disbanded on the spot. I can't afford to have so many troops!"
"Disbanded?"
Sun Quan narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard the words: "Hehe, I haven't paid attention to this news, but..."
All the generals stared at Sun Quan quickly, waiting for his next words.
"Even if Severus is dead, the Roman Empire will not be in turmoil. No matter who is in charge, I don't believe that they will disband hundreds of thousands of troops at this juncture!" Sun Quan said quietly.
"This matter is indeed a bit weird!"
The generals nodded.
"But Your Majesty, in fact, this matter is not impossible. After all, this is the force formed by Severus himself. It must be controlled by Severus's direct line. Now the Senate is the master. In the hearts of these senior nobles, the Roman Empire Why raise a group of soldiers with different intentions!"
The one who spoke was Zhang Yun of the Guanzhong Legion. His voice was deep, and what he said was very reasonable.
"Yes, if it were me instead, with hundreds of thousands of uncontrolled troops and a waste of money, I would also disband!"
"Not necessarily. After all, Severus is dead. Robert may not be incapable of regaining the loyalty of these soldiers. Why should he disband this force that can fight for Rome when Rome is in crisis!"
"..."
All the generals spoke and had different opinions.
"Leave this matter to Jin Yiwei to investigate!"
Sun Quan also somewhat agreed with Zhang Xi's statement in his heart. If this matter was placed on him, he would not raise a group of soldiers who were not loyal to him, but he was still a little worried, so he added a sentence.
"Yes!" Pang Tong nodded, and summoned a captain of Jinyiwei to let him pass the order through Jinyiwei's channel.
"Back to the question of the Legion of Gallic!"
Sun Quan said: "What do you think the Roman Empire is planning when the Gallic Legion appears in Milan?"
"This one……"
The generals were a little silent.
"Milan is another way to attack the city of Rome. The reason for our division is that there is joint resistance from the Crusaders and Parthians in front of us, which greatly delays the time for us to advance, so we have to open up the second way from Milan!"
Zhuge Liang analyzed and said: "If the Roman army is deploying defenses in Milan, the only possibility is to delay the time for us to approach the city of Rome!"
"Why not block, but delay?"
Sun Quan asked.
"Your Majesty, if the Roman Empire wants to stop us, the three legions in front of us are not enough at all. We are approaching a million soldiers, two large areas, and two lines of attack. No matter what, they can't stop them at all!"
It was Guo Jia who analyzed Zhuge Liang, and he said in a deep voice: "So they may be procrastinating!"
"procrastination?"
Ju Yiming realized, and said, "Isn't that delaying time? What good does it do them?"
"Have!"
Zhuge Liang replied: "Delaying time can free up enough time for them to clean up the internal strife. There is a saying that if you want to fight against the outside world, you must first settle the inside. If they want to fight us, they must stabilize the unity of the city of Rome! "
"Of course, the reason they procrastinate is that they have enough confidence to clean up the civil strife in Rome!"
Pang Tong added tacitly.
"Enough confidence to clean up the civil strife?"
The corner of Sun Quan's mouth raised a playful smile: "Whether it is Robert of the Senate, or Caracalla, or Geta, I don't think they have enough confidence to clean up the civil strife in the Roman Empire today!"
The civil strife in the Roman Empire was real, otherwise Sun Quan would never have dared to go so far.
After all, even if the Roman army is not strong enough, there are still tens of millions of people in the Roman Empire. Once someone raises his arms and calls on the heroes to work hard for the king, he will fall into a turbulent siege.
He is impatient, but he is not stupid.
The reason why he chose to lead his troops straight in was because he wanted to take advantage of this civil strife to quickly take down the Roman Empire.
A snake can't do without a head.
As long as he can take advantage of this opportunity to lead his army to conquer the city of Rome, kill and destroy the Council of Elders, defeat the main force of Rome, and burn the city of Rome, it will be enough for the Roman Empire to lose a core, and then the Roman provinces will lose their direction. If Wu Jun defeated them one by one, in less than ten years, the Emperor of Western Europe would completely become a battlefield for the princes of the Central Plains to compete for hegemony.
If you want to quickly clean up the civil strife in Rome, you need someone who is famous, popular, powerful, and absolutely courageous.
There are no such people in the Roman Empire today.
According to Sun Quan's information, there are only two and a half people in the Roman Empire with such abilities, one is Severus, the other is Olveri, and the other half should be Severus' confidant Friedrich.
Now Severus is dead, Olveri is also dead, and Friedrich is also missing. Even if he is alive, he has enough fame and popularity, but lacks the courage to suppress the legions.
That's why Sun Quan believed that unless one of the parties in this civil strife was defeated, it would not be so easy to rely on.
