The Three Kingdoms

If one of them is really defeated, then their strength will definitely be exhausted, and this is a great opportunity for Wu Jun to come to the city.

"Then where did they get the confidence to clean up the civil strife in Rome?"

Lu Bu narrowed his eyes slightly, and asked a question that everyone wanted to ask.

"Report!"

Outside the imperial tent, a loud voice sounded.

"Come in!"

Pang Tong gave a low snort.

"Report to Your Majesty, this is a message sent by a Roman, on which is the unique code symbol of Jin Yiwei!"

"Jin Yiwei!" Sun Quan's eyes lit up, "Shi Yuan, take it apart!"

"promise!"

Pang Tong diverted the information, glanced at it, trembled all over, and his face became very pale.

"what happened?"

Sun Quan took it over and looked at it. His brows furrowed quickly, and his pupils shrank a little.

All the generals quickly spread out this piece of information and looked at it, and everyone fell silent.

"Now do you know where the faith of the Roman Empire lies?"

Sun Quan clenched his fists and asked hoarsely, asking sarcastically.

"Severus!"

The generals gritted their teeth and spat out the name.

For this Roman emperor, they had some intuitive impressions, and they were so impressed that they couldn't forget it even if they wanted to.

This piece of information was sent from the city of Rome, and it described everything that happened in the city of Rome in recent days, including Severus' death and resurrection.

"We've been beaten!"

In the silence, Pang Tong opened his mouth to break the silence: "Severus's death is obviously a fake death. The purpose of his fake death is already obvious. One general can cut off the dissidents within the Roman Empire, so that the entire empire can unite and fight against us. , On the other hand, and most importantly, he wanted his own death to weaken our vigilance against the Roman Empire and lure us to go deep alone, so he must have set up a net here, waiting for us to get in!"

[Chapter [-] in Chapter [-] of the text]

"Have you been beaten?"

"It seems that we really fell for it!"

"What a Severus, I have to admit that he is too old and cunning, and he actually used feigned death to lure us into being fooled!"

"We underestimated the enemy!"

"It's too late to say anything, and now we have penetrated thousands of miles into the hinterland of the Roman Empire!"

"..."

Pang Tong's blunt words directly tore off that layer of fig leaf, making the hearts of the generals feel heavy, and they looked at each other's faces one by one, and they couldn't help showing traces of extremely bitter expressions on each other's faces.

"Severus, I still underestimate you!"

At this moment, even Sun Quan felt a heavy feeling in his heart, and a long-lost sense of crisis suddenly came to his heart.

This has not been the case for many years.

In the past, there was Cao Cao who made him feel dangerous, so he had to be cautious no matter what he did, but since he unified the Central Plains, he seemed to have lost an opponent who could make him vigilant, and he rarely felt the so-called sense of crisis .

For the battle of the Roman Empire, he is full of confidence, because he is the offensive side. Even if the offensive battle fails, it will not damage the strength of the Great Wu Dynasty. He can still make a comeback. If he can't fight, he will fight for the rest of his life, he has such determination.

But this time...

He chose to fight in person, but his mentality became impatient. Instead, Severus took advantage of this hasty mentality and entered a trap that Severus had arranged for him.

After the Battle of Damascus, Sun Quan once convened all the generals to discuss the strategy.

At that time, Wu Jun had two offensive strategies.

One is to fight step by step, step by step, and fight in from the frontier.

The second is to conquer the city of Rome in one step, and then clean up the provinces, which is quick and easy.

In the end, Sun Quan personally made the decision, gave up the step-by-step offensive strategy, and chose the quick strategy of going deep alone and destroying Rome in World War I.

The reason why he made such a choice is that the Roman Empire caused civil strife because of Severus' death, and it is in a weak stage without a leader. The opportunity is difficult, and Rome should be destroyed in one go.

but now……

Sun Quan had to admit that Severu lied to him.

The news from Jin Yiwei came a bit late, but it is still very useful. The generals on the field are all generals at the level of army commander and army chief of staff. They are not stupid. The resurrection from Severus' death is enough to show that many things.

Even if the coup in the Roman Empire was not fake, it was a situation deliberately created by Severus.

As for the purpose of Severus doing this...

Sun Quan believed that there were two purposes.

First, it is mostly to solve the internal problems of the Roman Empire.

The current Roman Empire is in a state of internal and external troubles. In the face of tough foreign aggression, they are divided internally after all. The weak will choose to surrender in the end, and the strong will choose to resist to the end. Severus took advantage of this coup. , Cut off the internal troubles of the Roman Empire.

To fight against the outside world, we must first secure the inside. On this point, he has comprehensive considerations

The second reason is also the most important reason for him to do so.

Severus wanted to deliberately create a chaotic Roman Empire, confuse Wu Jun's strategic judgment, and create the best opportunity for Wu Wu Jun to drive straight in and destroy Rome in one fell swoop.

Kill two birds with one stone.

The price he paid was heavy, Olveri, the German legion, the Augustus legion.

But in both of his purposes, he succeeded.

Not only did he take advantage of this opportunity to wipe out the stubborn forces within the Roman Empire that emerged, unite as one, even the Wu army fell into the trap because of his death. Millions of main forces rushed forward underestimated the enemy and entered his In the predetermined encirclement.

In the imperial tent, there was complete silence.
