Xiang Yan looked far away, and sure enough, he saw a fleet appearing in his sight on the distant sea.

The corner of Xiang Yan's mouth twitched slightly, and she gave the order calmly.

"Get ready to fight!"

The distance between the two fleets began to narrow rapidly.

Xiang Yan didn't panic, but gave orders in an orderly manner.

"Musketeers ready to fire."

"Get ready for the grenade, but wait until you are at close range before throwing it out. Don't throw it into the sea, understand?"

Xiang Yan is full of confidence, because his fleet not only has muskets, which are bug-level weapons that surpass the range of all modern weapons, but also has grenades, which can kill ships.

Device.

The ships of this era are all made of wood!

Soon, a sea battle broke out between the two sides.

On the Greek side was an allied army consisting of the various states of Greece, the kingdom of Antigonus, and the kingdom of Macedonia further north.

Although there are many of these countries, they are actually only as big as Egypt, so their warships are only more than 200, not even one of Xiang Yan's.

Half.

But the Greek coalition forces are still full of confidence, because in their view, the Aegean Sea is their homeland, and they can definitely win!

This idea soon proved to be a very stupid idea in the ensuing naval battle.

While the Greek fleet commanders were still ordering the archers to coat the arrows with kerosene and ignite them, the musketeers of the Great Han Kingdom had already fired.

This sudden shooting immediately caused heavy losses to the Greek archers. Many archers were killed just as they ignited their arrows. The falling kerosene ignited their own ships instead.

only.

The range suppression of the musketeers exerted absolute power at this moment. The Greek archers could hardly lift their heads. Only a few shot arrows sparsely. All the arrows

Yamanaka is even more pitiful, only two or three can hit the target, and they can't pose any threat at all.

Looking at this scene in the eyes of the Greek commanders, it naturally made them very angry, so they issued the next order very quickly.

"Get close to the ships of the Han Kingdom, jump on their ships, and fight them with swords!"

The Greek commanders also thought very clearly, if you can’t fight at a distance, then you can fight at close range. You soldiers from the Han Kingdom are all from land, and you can’t fight at close quarters on a boat.

Maybe it's the opponent?

But the ideal is beautiful, but the reality is very cruel.

Just as the vanguard ships of the Greek fleet approached the ships of the Great Han Kingdom, the musketeers of the Great Han Kingdom threw out their grenades one after another.

"Boom boom boom!"

Explosions sounded one after another, and those Greek navy soldiers who had not had time to jump over to the ships of the Han Dynasty were blown up by grenades on their own ships.

The suppression of grenades and muskets made it impossible for the Greek navy soldiers to organize any large-scale jumping ship operations.

Soon, these Greek pioneer ships ignited a raging fire. Many Greek naval soldiers screamed desperately in the sea of ​​​​fire, and the ships sank into the sea

In.

Xiang Yan looked at this scene, and the smile on the corner of her mouth became more and more intense.

"What a bunch of brainless idiots. How could Han, the most powerful country in the world, be defeated by you barbarians!"

The [-] fleets of the Han Kingdom marched mightily forward, and the sea where they passed was full of billowing smoke and fragments of many Greek ships. There were also many Greek ships on the sea.

The soldiers of the navy struggled to call for help while hugging the boards, and then they were salvaged by the ships of the Han Dynasty behind and became prisoners on the spot.

The naval battle had only been going on for an hour, and all the ships on the Greek side realized something was wrong and turned around and fled.

It doesn't matter if you don't run, this battle is really impossible.

The level of fighting between the two sides is not at the same level at all, it is like a group of adults running amok with children who have just started to walk, how do you say this?

So the ensuing battle turned into a fleet of the Greeks fleeing frantically in front, and the fleet of the Han Kingdom kept chasing after it.

This pursuit lasted for more than a day.

At noon the next day, a piece of land appeared in front of Xiang Yan, and there was a city on this piece of land.

Xiang Yan took out a compass and a pair of nautical maps for comparison, and finally came to a conclusion.

"Here, it should be Athens.

Athens, a very famous city, is also the core city of Greek civilization!

If Sparta represented the courage of Greek civilization, then Athens concentrated the wisdom of the entire Greek civilization.

A general came quickly and asked Xiang Yan for instructions: "General, what should we do next?"

Xiang Yan laughed loudly: "What should I do? Of course, I will kill this general and go to land to occupy this city!"

For Xiang Yan, the conquest of Greece, Macedonia and other places this time is not a very difficult conquest.

With weapons such as musketeers and grenades, it is simply a dimensionality reduction strike!

So Xiang Yan doesn't need to be cautious, what he needs is a bold attack, which is a quick victory!

Under Xiang Yan's order, many ships of the Han Dynasty were berthed on the pier one after another.

At the beginning, there were still a group of Greeks who planned to resist desperately, but when the sound of muskets rang out and people died on the pier, all the Greeks ran away in an instant.

It was clean, and there was no one else except the corpse.

Watching the numerous musketeers of the Han Dynasty swarming out of the ships, setting foot on the ground of the city of Athens and launching an attack, Xiang Yan even yawned.

"This kind of war is really boring."

Fifty thousand musketeers are definitely a surplus for a city like Athens. You must know that Athens today is no longer the Athens in its heyday.

The center of dominion has shifted to Macedonia, which is nothing more than a historic city, but nothing more.

That night, Xiang Yan had already stepped into the residence of the Governor of Athens.

Here, hundreds of Athens officials knelt on the ground tremblingly, waiting for Xiang Yan's verdict on their lives.

Xiang Yan sat down on the seat that originally belonged to the governor of Athens, and asked casually, "Where is the governor here?"

Xiang Yan's personal guard captain replied: "He has died."

Xiang Yan snorted, and said: "He still has some backbone, don't embarrass his family, send them to the Western Regions."

After a few seconds, Xiang Yan set his eyes on the Athens officials in front of him, and said slowly, "Are you all willing to surrender?"

Naturally, someone translated this sentence to these officials.

An official stood up courageously, and said to Xiang Yan: "Of course we can surrender, but please ask the Han Dynasty to ensure the safety of our personal and property, and

Those who are unwilling to surrender can be sent out of the country. "

Xiang Yan laughed directly, and then pulled out the pistol at his waist.

The officer was killed instantly after a single shot.

Xiang Yan blew the smoke from the muzzle of the pistol, put the pistol back on her waist, and said coldly: "These days, you really dare to make irresponsible remarks in front of this general, huh? You

We must remember that it was our Han Kingdom that conquered this place, you shameful losers either surrender or die, you have no qualifications to negotiate terms with us! "

After the incident just now, everyone realized the majesty of Xiang Yan, the conqueror.

When everyone is in the right position, everything is very easy to handle.

As usual, there is still a team of thousands of officials by Xiang Yan's side. This team of officials will quickly take over the entire city of Athens, and in the coming time

Following the advance of Xiang Yan's army, slowly bring all the conquered territories into the rule.

For the officials of the Han Kingdom, these things are almost commonplace, and everyone is very proficient.

Of course, after these officials have settled in, they will have to win over a group of local people, kill a group of local assassins, and finally appease and assimilate them all, but these are all

It has nothing to do with Xiang Yan.

After occupying Athens, Xiang Yan quickly divided his troops into three groups, and completely occupied the whole of Greece in just half a month.

Afterwards, Xiang Yan marched north and fought against the coalition forces of the Kingdom of Macedonia and the Kingdom of Antigonus.

After a victory without suspense, Xiang Yan led an army into the capital of the Macedonian Kingdom, and the Macedonian Kingdom declared its demise.

Then Xiang Yan did not go north immediately, but instead marched eastward, destroying the lingering Kingdom of Antigonus.

So far, many kingdoms that were split from Alexander the Great's empire have all perished, and they all perished in the hands of the Han Dynasty.

Xiang Yan sat in the palace of the Kingdom of Antigonus, staring at the eighteen crowns neatly placed in front of her.

They come from various states, and they are all Xiang Yan's spoils of war.

Xiang Yan said with a smile: "These barbarians from the West are terrible at fighting, but they still have good aesthetics. These crowns are beautifully made, which is very interesting."

One of Xiang Yan's confidantes blinked and said softly, "Would you like to keep one of the generals?"

Xiang Yan scolded with a smile: "Keep what! If someone finds out, it's fine, maybe it's a capital offense! Well, hurry up and send someone to send these things back to Your Majesty, head!"

Still kinda gross, these crowns His Majesty sure loves them! "

After finishing speaking, Xiang Yan also sighed with emotion: "In the past, this general was just a native of Chu State, and all he wanted was to help Chu State rule the world. Unexpectedly, this general now actually

As a general of the Han Dynasty, he fought all the way to the westernmost part of the continent. This kind of good fortune is really a good thing that he could not have imagined in his previous life. "

Xiang Yan is ambitious. For him, this war is far from over!

Chapter 1312 The Destruction of Rome

The news that Xiang Yan had destroyed the Macedonian and Greek countries reached Carthage about half a month later.

After hearing the news, Zhao Qian was also overjoyed: "I knew that General Xiang Yan is indeed a fierce general!"

After Wang Jian heard the news, he was a little envious: "This guy Xiang Yan has won a big battle...Your Highness, we can't fall behind."

Zhao Qian was stunned for a moment, a little puzzled: "Us?"

Wang Jian said eagerly, "Your Highness, we originally came to Carthage to be friendly envoys, but the situation is different now. Carthage has become our strength.

We can definitely lead the Carthaginian army to the north to join forces with Xiang Yan and go directly to destroy Rome! "

After hearing Wang Jian's words, Zhao Qian's eyes widened in disbelief: "We...go to destroy Rome?"

This matter was really something that Zhao Qian hadn't thought about beforehand.

Wang Jian chuckled, and encouraged him: "Your Highness, please think about it, our Great Han Kingdom has really swept the world now, and there is not much time for us to have an opponent. Could it be

Your Highness doesn't want to experience what it's like to truly dominate the battlefield? "

Zhao Qian's heart skipped a beat when he heard this.

Indeed, as Wang Jian said, the power of the Han Kingdom has completely extended to the civilized countries in the entire Eurasian continent, and almost all of the opponents who are still decent

They were all defeated by the Han Dynasty, and there was only one Rome still lingering.

If Zhao Qian didn't participate in the conquest of Rome, he might really have no chance in the future.

This was what Zhao Qian thought, without hesitation, he said decisively: "Go, call Hamilka and the elders."

Half a day later, Hamilcar and a group of Carthage elders were sitting in the palace, and they were a little dazed after listening to Zhao Qian's words.

Hamilcar couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty, do you really want to destroy the Roman Republic? Can this... be done?"

It wasn't that Hamilcar doubted Zhao Qian's combat effectiveness, it was that the Carthaginians had just been beaten up by the Romans and lacked confidence.

Zhao Qian smiled and said, "Frankly speaking, I only need these [-] musketeers to destroy Rome, and you Carthaginian soldiers are actually just there to help out.

By the way, there are still [-] musketeers in our Great Han Kingdom, led by General Xiang Yan, marching across the mountains towards Rome! "

On the side, Wang Jian very cooperatively hung up a map, on which Xiang Yan's marching route from Macedonia to Rome was clearly marked with a red pen.

After listening to the elders of Carthage, all of them were not calm.

Five thousand musketeers have already swept the [-] Roman army, and now there are [-] musketeers marching towards the city of Rome?

Many Carthage elders immediately spoke up.

"Your Majesty's order, of course we Carthaginians will obey to the death!"

"Destroy Rome and avenge the humiliation we Carthage suffered in the past!"
