I have three hundred soldiers, all of whom can warm wine and kill Hua Xiong

As soon as Lacy and Thutmose returned to their residence, they issued a dozen orders at the same time.

These orders were all related to the immediate dispatch of troops to the city of Rome.

"We failed to capture Constantinople before and lost the opportunity to enter the city of Rome first. Unexpectedly, the lost opportunity came back in the end."

Thutmose nodded, "So this time, we must seize the opportunity. There is a blood feud between the Romans and us. The Romans owe us too much. Taking down the city of Rome and plundering the city of Rome can be regarded as Rome." The paltry compensation that people give us.”

Lacy fully agreed with what Thutmose said.

But Lacy also shares Lacy’s concerns.

"But among the four armies, our army is the weakest. If we want to be the first to reach Rome, it will be difficult. And if others are allowed to get there first, we will completely miss out on the wealth in Rome."

"I'm even sure that the reason why the Chinese Emperor proposed to divide the troops into four groups was that he never thought that we could reach Rome first."

After hearing Lacy's words, Thutmose fell into silence.

As Lassi said, of the four armies, the Syrians and Egyptians were the weakest.

First of all, the equipment of the Egyptians and Syrians was very backward, and their armies were seriously short of horses.

In this era, the army lacked war horses, and the troops lacked mobility. At the same time, the escort of food and supplies would also be affected.

Secondly, the Egyptians and Syrians suffered very serious losses when they attacked Constantinople. Now, almost all of the Egyptian and Syrian armies are new recruits who have never been on the battlefield.

Thutmose also let out a sigh, "The Chinese army has a strong overall strength, and the Eastern Romans are familiar with the place. They have the same roots as the Romans, and it is easy to get the support of the Western Romans. Parthian and Kushan, nearly half They are all cavalry. If we want to surpass them and reach the city of Rome, we have only three chances at most, and these three points may also depend on luck."

The so-called luck refers to encountering the fewest enemies that year.

But the chance of this so-called luck existing is very small.

After Thutmose finished speaking, Lacy reached out and touched his chin and said, "Well, it would be great if we could find a way to get some war horses. With the war horses, our marching speed will definitely be faster."

Thutmose walked aside and sat down, frowning and thinking for a long time, and then said to Lassi: "The Parthians are not short of war horses, but the Parthians definitely want to be the first to arrive in Rome. So the Parthians Even if people have war horses, they will definitely not sell them to us."

"For the same reason, the Eastern Romans and Chinese are unreliable. We want to get enough war horses. We also need to rely on our own efforts."

When Thutmose said this, he looked at Lassi. After a moment, Lacy said: "Then send soldiers out to rob, rob the herdsmen, rob the caravans, and rob the common people. Before the Chinese take advantage of it, When we get to Constantinople, we will use our rare free time to snatch back at least 50,000 war horses."

"With these 50,000 horses, we are sure to arrive in Rome first."

"Ok!"

Thutmose nodded and added.

"It's OK to rob, but you must tell the soldiers to keep their eyes open. Do not touch the horses of the Chinese caravan. China is a more powerful empire than the Roman Empire, and we cannot offend them now."

The Syrians and Egyptians cannot be offended, because a large part of the reason why the Syrians and Egyptians were able to successfully establish their countries was because they were funded by the Chinese.

The Chinese, to put it bluntly, are the financial sponsors of the Syrians and Egyptians.

"Don't worry, I know what's going on."

Lacy smiled and said: "I will tell the soldiers not to touch the large caravans or the caravans flying the Chinese flag. We will only grab the small merchants who have little connection and are insignificant. Team."

"Well, although this may be a little less efficient, at least it won't cause unnecessary problems."

Thutmose and Lacy's orders were quickly conveyed.

That night, Syria and Egypt each formed an elite force to take charge of this matter.

Time seems to be running thin, I can't hold it back, I can't grasp it.

It seemed like another three days had passed in the blink of an eye.

In the meeting hall, Wei Chu stood by the window with his hands behind his back.

Through the window, you can vaguely see Constantinople across the strait.

"Niu Shisan, where are the Eighteen Tiandao Guards now? How long will it take for them to get here."

When Wei Chu finished speaking, Niu Shisan quickly bowed and said, "Based on the Tiandao Guard's Eighteen Cavalry's position half a month ago and their speed. They should be able to arrive tomorrow afternoon."

"Tomorrow afternoon!"

Wei Chu briefly calculated in his mind, then nodded to Niu Shisan and said: "The Eighteen Tiandao Guards will arrive tomorrow afternoon, then we will launch an attack on Constantinople the day after tomorrow."

"Tonight, let the craftsmen carry the catapults and crossbows onto the battleship. If the Romans use catapults and crossbows to prevent us from landing, we will use our catapults and crossbows to teach the Romans a lesson."

"understand!"

Niu Shisan hugged Wei Chu, turned around and left the meeting hall.

Not long after Niu Shisan left, Commodus walked into the meeting hall with a flattering smile.

"Your Majesty, I spent a lot of effort to find a pair of very beautiful triplets. Not only are the three of them very beautiful, but they also look exactly the same. In addition, the three of them all admire Your Majesty very much, and they also I am very interested in the Chinese language. If your Majesty is free tonight, please teach them how to speak Chinese."

Wei Chu looked at Kang Maode with interest and nodded lightly.

"Well, I like people who are curious about knowledge the most. You can send them to my bedroom. I can take time to talk to them tonight by candlelight."

While Wei Chu and the triplets were talking at night, the Eighteen Tiandao Guards who were escorting the thunder bombs were targeted by the Syrians.

"According to His Majesty the King's wishes, large caravans cannot move. I think that although they have more than a dozen carriages, there are less than a hundred people in total. They are definitely not a large caravan."

"Well, the driver driving the carriage looks quite ordinary, and the guards responsible for guarding the carriage can't even see their faces clearly. I guess they are not doing serious business. Plus, there are no flags hanging in their team, so I think it can be done They have one vote.”

"Okay, just kill them. You and others will continue to follow them from a distance. I'll go back and call for them."
