The Three Kingdoms
Page 2696
That night, the meeting ended in chaos.
After the meeting ended, Chucks ordered the deployment of troops arbitrarily without discussing with anyone.
He ordered William to rush to the British battlefield immediately to unite the Northwest.
He ordered Alonso to go south immediately to face the Eastern Demon in the Southern Hell.
At the same time, he ordered the Gaul Legion, the Guards Legion, and the Beamon Legion to start gathering...
……
The next day.
Rome, the arena.
"kill!"
"Kill him!"
"Bite him, bite him hard!"
In the huge arena, there will never be a shortage of spectators. Countless Roman nobles are shouting hysterically at the fighting beasts in the iron cage, and the cry of that brother shakes the sky.
"Chucks pays his respects to Lord Friedrich!"
Chucks walked in and saw Optimus Prime of the Roman Empire in a position. In the corrupt situation, he turned the tide and allowed the Roman Empire to recover [-]% to [-]% of its national power in just a few years. The imperial minister Friedrich .
"Chaks, who do you think will win in the Colosseum below?" Friedrich asked indifferently, pointing to the fight between a slave and a tiger in the Colosseum below.
"I don't know!" Chucks sat next to him, looked at it, and shook his head.
"I do not know either!"
A look of vicissitudes appeared on Friedrich's old face, and said: "The charm of the Colosseum lies in it. As long as the war is not over, no one knows who will win, so there will never be a lack of audience here!"
"I don't understand, the empire has fallen to this point now, why they can still play here with peace of mind!"
Chucks said coldly: "This place should be closed and let them all go to the battlefield!"
"God tells us that we can't judge things arbitrarily. There will be good and bad in everything. What you see is only the bad side!"
Friedrich said calmly: "Your soldiers and horses cost about two legions. They come from this arena. Without them, you can't sustain the consumption of so many soldiers and horses!"
Chucks was speechless when he heard this.
Friedrich was right. The income from this arena can support several legions under him. If it is closed, his military expenses will still be a huge problem.
"What are you looking for me for?"
Friedrich is neutral. He has never participated in the battle between Chaks and Caracalla these years, but because of his existence, the Roman Empire has returned to its current heyday. No one dares to ignore his status.
"Eastern demons have sent troops to break through the fortress of Severus. Macrinus has died fighting for the empire. The war between the empire and the east has completely broken out!"
Chuck said.
"This day is still here!"
Friedrich was not surprised. His eyes were deep and he asked, "What do you want me to do?"
"I need weapons, equipment, food and grass!"
Chuck said.
"I can prepare all these for you. There is only one empire. If it is dead, we are all subjugated slaves, so I will support the war between you and the eastern demons with the last breath of the empire!"
"Also, I will take away all the great troops of the empire. The imperial capital will not be guarded by any soldiers, but Caracalla, I am a little worried. If he moves, I will be attacked on both sides!"
"He is not a person who cares nothing about the overall situation!" Friedrich said in a low voice.
"Master Friedrich, you should be clear, I can't afford to lose, and neither can the Empire!"
"Then what do you want to do?" Friedrich frowned and looked at Chucks: "After all, he is our emperor, the ruler of the empire, and the spirit of all of us's allegiance!"
"Don't worry, I won't kill him!"
A hint of ruthlessness appeared on Chucks' face, and he said: "I can't be sorry for His Majesty Severus' entrustment, but I can't let him come out to make trouble at this time. What will I do when I leave the imperial capital, so for the safety of this battle, I will put him under house arrest, and during the war, he is not allowed to step out of the Pantheon."
His relationship with Caracalla should have been hardened by the death of Gnaeus, the Greek governor.
It's not that he hasn't thought about changing the emperor these years, but he can't pass the test of Friedrich. He is not afraid of Friedrich, but the empire cannot be chaotic, and he can only maintain the status quo.
But now, he couldn't rest assured of Caracalla. If Caracalla stabbed him in the back when he was fighting the Wu army on the front line, it would not only be his own failure, but the entire empire's failure.
He can't afford the risk.
"What if I don't agree?"
"If I can't rest assured, I'd rather settle it once and for all, and before I go out, I don't want to leave any trouble!" Chucks' voice was filled with murderous intent: "His Majesty Severus is not just his descendant. I don't care about the fate of the empire." It will block his mood!"
"You've talked so much, what else can I do!"
Hearing this, Friedrich smiled wryly. He understood Chucks' worries and understood that only Chucks could lead the army of the empire and keep the empire from the attack of the eastern demons: "I will watch him and not let him If he has any chance to make trouble for you, even if it is the Senate, I will send someone to monitor it, and I, like you, will not put the name of the empire on their mood!"
"Thank you, Mr. Friedrich!"
Chucks breathed a sigh of relief.
"You don't have to thank me, I have done this to His Majesty Severus, but not for you, but for the empire!"
Friedrich was a little nostalgic for the past, and remembered the great emperor: "His Majesty Severus actually did the same thing as you back then. When fighting against foreign enemies, you must first eliminate internal troubles before you can unite the empire. The power from top to bottom can defeat the enemy in one fell swoop, but what he dealt with back then was the Senate, but what you have to deal with today is His Majesty!"

The time goes back to a few days ago. At that time, the battle of Severus Fortress was still fierce, and in the southern Greek province, there was also a bloody battle between the Wu army and the Roman army.
The province of Greece, which is an important economic and political center province of the Roman Empire, can be called the core of the eastern part of the empire.
The northern part of the province, centered on the provincial capital of Athens, is the Attica Peninsula, while the southern part of the province is the Peloponnese Peninsula with Sparta as the core. peninsula.
The two peninsulas constitute the province of Greece, and they are separated by several straits, the two more critical straits are the Gulf of Corinthia and the Gulf of Patras.
These two bays are battlegrounds for the battles in the land of Greece.
In the past when the Wu army fought against Rome, Sun Lang was entrusted with an important task by Sun Quan. He led the army from Byzantium to seize the Peloponnese Peninsula first, and then relying on the Gulf of Corinthia and the Bay of Patras as natural dangers, Fang Can fight against the Roman army in the Greek provinces.
However, when the main force of the Wu army defeated the city of Rome, the whole army was forced to retreat to the Roman territory, and Sun Lang was also forced to lead his army to leave the Greek province.
It can be regarded as losing a great opportunity for him to seize the Greek province.
