God, who did not give up, launched a second attack after the army of angels was resurrected, but the result was no different, as they were easily defeated by Rome.

"How could this happen!" God looked at the completely one-sided war and couldn't understand what was going on.

The failure of the successful tactics finally reminded God of the severity of the previous imperial war.

And awakened the terror they had previously experienced under the rule of the United Forces.

Faced with the angels' second attack, the Romans, who were on high alert, started the war in the most cautious way, as if they were fighting another empire. They did not have the arrogance of having just crushed the opponent. They brought out all their strength and were at their peak the moment the war started.

Then, just like a giant steamroller encountering a bicycle, the Angel Legion was directly cut off by the front line!

In fact, when the main Roman combat legion rushed into the front line of the Angel Legion, the Roman Legion thought it had fallen into the opponent's trap. After all, it was too easy, so easy that even the Roman Legion commander with some experience doubted whether the opponent had any command at all.

Especially after crushing the enemy's battle line once, they thought that the other side was hiding some kind of conspiracy. However, they did not expect that the army of angels would be like a mob and collapse again at the first touch.

This time, the Tenth Knights Legion didn't even have time to intervene. The First Italian Legion and the Second Augustus Legion directly broke through the angel army from the center.

Rome was a little worried at first, so they were mentally prepared to retreat if they couldn't win. With this idea in mind, the First Italian Legion and the Second Augustus Legion were placed in the center of the front line.

It is obvious that this method of combat makes it clear that if an accident occurs, these two extremely powerful and reliable legions will need to provide cover.

However, the prepared backup plan was completely useless, just like winking at a blind man, the army of angels was defeated miserably.

Nero looked at Octavian with a puzzled look. Only at this moment did he begin to truly realize the horror of Octavian's involvement. After all, his opponent was the commander of a large legion and had learned a lot of ways of fighting large armies from Rome.

However, these combat methods were completely abandoned, and the two most worried wars of attrition were easily resolved. Now, even if the other side came to their senses and began to regroup, it would not make much sense.

After all, they were very close to the center of heaven. As long as they took the center of heaven, the war would be over completely.

Thinking of this, Nero looked at Zhuge Liang with strange eyes. He instinctively felt that the other party was planning something, but now he didn't have so much time to take care of these. He needed to focus all his attention on the front battlefield.

He must defeat the angel completely like a lion fighting a rabbit. As for Zhuge Liang and the others, leave them to Octavian. Nero believes that Octavian, the Roman god, will not let Rome down.

"Nero, can you allocate 50,000 people to me?" Octavian whispered to Nero.

"What are you going to do?" Nero asked in confusion, narrowing his eyes.

"I plan to take down the city of Jumeng!" Octavian said in a deep voice.

Nero was stunned for a moment, and involuntarily glanced in the direction of Zhuge Liang, and then instantly understood what Octavian meant.

"You mean Jumeng City is now an empty city?"

Nero pondered for a moment, and after knowing what Octavian meant, he had to consider the consequences of withdrawing 50,000 people from a holistic perspective.

"I can only give you 30,000 people. You can take the guards in Rome with you. That way you can get 50,000 people!"

"The pressure on my side will be a little greater, but it shouldn't be a problem. Do you want me to let the Tenth Knights follow you?"

Nero said to Octavian in the most cautious manner that in fact, even if he mobilized 100,000 men, let alone 50,000 men, Nero was confident that he would not lose to the other side.

However, Nero was responsible for the entire Roman Empire at the moment. He overestimated his opponent's strength as much as possible and assumed that God had suddenly become a god of war.

After all, before encountering the Mongols, no one had expected that such a powerful enemy would appear so suddenly.

When fighting a large army commander, he could even transfer half of the troops to Octavian, but when fighting a military god, he had to think from the most cautious perspective.

"The Tenth Knights' Legion is left to you. Just give me the Fourth Macedonia Legion. You can mobilize the others as you wish!"

Octavian nodded and asked for a Fourth Macedonia. After all, it was an important place where Xinghan was stationed, and there would be no shortage of defensive equipment. He needed a powerful legion to climb the city and break the wall.

"I will try my best to make them fight the Angel Legion, and the rest is up to you!" Nero said softly. He did not support Octavian's plan, but he did not oppose it either. Octavian could consider the pros and cons clearly by himself.

All he had to do now was to defeat his enemies as a commander. Being able to contain Zhuge Liang and the others was already his limit.

"Kong Ming, there's movement in Rome!" Lu Meng hurriedly reported the intelligence to Zhuge Liang.

"I'll leave this to you. Just do it according to the Roman arrangement. Leave this to me!" Zhuge Liang's eyes sparkled, and then he handed the command to Lu Meng and returned to reality.

Next, the real game begins.

Lu Meng looked at Zhuge Liang with a wry smile, who directly handed over power to him. The command power he pursued was nothing more than something that could be thrown away at will in the eyes of the other party, and the other party never paid attention to it.

Han Xin once said that Zhuge Liang could become a military god, but the prerequisite was that Zhuge Liang temporarily gave up politics and focused his energy on military affairs.

All-round is certainly a good choice, but compared with single-point breakthrough, the pressure of all-round breakthrough is too great.

Don't you see that Zhang Fei's spirit, energy and soul are stuck at the extreme point of internal energy leaving the body? To be precise, Zhang Fei should be in an omnipotent state as high as the sky, so that his general boundary-breaking attack can basically kill a kid with one punch.

But unlike others, Zhang Fei's essence did not sublimate. The most obvious phenomenon was that Zhang Fei's legion talent did not blossom again. In comparison, Guan Yu seemed to be far ahead.

After calming down his agitated emotions, Lu Meng regained his composure. He knew that he would also face a big trouble.

"Is Marshal Zhuge not here?" The commander of the Fifth Skylark Army appeared not far away. After not seeing Zhuge Liang, he walked towards Lu Meng and asked.

"Now I am in command of the army. Tell me if you have anything to say." Lu Meng had a blank expression on his face. He didn't even need to guess, he knew what the other party was going to say next.

"Please attack along your current position. Our army plans to speed up!" Palmiro conveyed Nero's order.

"I understand. Our army can set off now!" Lu Meng nodded without asking why the other party suddenly changed the deployment.

The words Palmiro had prepared were not used, but he accomplished his mission anyway, so he disappeared from the spot and went back to report.

"Such a bland reply? Did you see through my plan, or are you just pretending to be calm?" Nero was confused after receiving Palmiro's reply, but he did not have much time to pay attention to this issue.

Although his transfer order did contain the idea of ​​​​letting Xinghan and the Angels go into full-scale war, he had no intention of harming Xinghan. In accordance with Octavian's political strategy, he treated Xinghan as an ally.

Xinghan's ability to contain some of the angels would indeed help him defeat the angel army in one fell swoop.

……

"Gather all the soldiers and follow me!"

After returning to reality, Octavian summoned all his soldiers without hesitation and led a mighty army of 50,000 to charge towards the city of Jumeng.

Octavian's actions made many senators in Rome very uneasy, and they hurriedly convened the Senate.

"What exactly is His Majesty Octavian going to do?" Some people were a little uneasy. They had not received any news at all. They only knew that Octavian was gathering troops.

As veterans who had colluded with Xinghan in private, they all felt guilty and fearful from the bottom of their hearts at this moment. If they supported the internal emptiness of Rome and Octavian launched a purge, none of them would be able to escape Octavian's purge.

"Send someone to ask His Majesty Octavian immediately!" One senator made a prompt decision, and the others responded one after another.

"Also, send someone to invite His Majesty Caracalla. We need His Majesty Caracalla at a time like this!"

Some people anxiously thought of Caracalla. Although Caracalla had been missing recently, as the emperor of Rome, he still possessed some special powers.

These special powers are exactly what the Roman senators currently in the Senate urgently need.

From the perspective of universal reason, Caracalla, who was the one who cut off the military pay, had a much greater reputation among the soldiers than Octavian and Nero.

However, Octavian's reputation among the upper class was far greater than that of others, and he was a master of political balancing. Sometimes, even if they had other ideas in their minds, they had to follow Octavian's plan and were completely controlled by the other party's general trend.

Soon, Octavian's response reached the Senate, and the senators became even more confused.

"Your Majesty Octavian is going to attack the city of Jumon?"

Some senators were stunned, not knowing why Octavian suddenly attacked, while others immediately understood the deeper meaning, and their original thoughts became restless in an instant.

If Octavian captured Jumeng, wouldn't all of them be doomed if their connection with Jumeng was exposed?

"How can His Majesty Octavian break the alliance? Without Xinghan's technology, how can we resist the threat of the Mongols?"

Thinking of this, some of the senators instantly became passionate, and their concern for the country and the people of Rome instantly reached an extreme.

The senators who supported Octavian did not expect such strong opposition, but they still refuted according to what Octavian had left.

"We have already mastered the technology of the space barrier. Even if we lose our allies from Xinghan, we can still keep the enemy out!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the Senate fell silent instantly, and only a few elders who had known about the situation for a long time looked calm.

"sure?"

"I am absolutely sure that, although the space gate technology is still under development, the problem of the space barrier has been solved. From now on, no one will be able to appear near Rome quietly!" said the elder in charge of technology confidently.

Attacking the Kingdom of Heaven is not only for training troops, but some technologies are also verified through the Kingdom of Heaven, the most important of which are the technologies related to space barriers and space barriers.

They don't want to be protected by Xinghan forever, they are proud Romans.

The hearts of the elders in the Senate suddenly became unsettled, and the overwhelming opposition voices suddenly became much smaller.

"But the prerequisite is to be able to capture Jumeng City, right?" An elder also pointed out the problem immediately.

"Xinghan may send troops to support us at any time. If a war breaks out between the empires, who will bear the responsibility?"

"Let's take a step back. What about the north? Xinghan can definitely march from the north!"

Many questions instantly made the Senate lively again, and the number of senators who opposed reached almost two-thirds.

"I will be responsible for all of this. Do you have any questions?"

The figure of the Roman God appeared in the Senate. The originally angry senators were instantly silent, fearing that they would be targeted by Octavian. Now was a good time for him to launch a purge.

No one will defend the dead.

Octavian also frowned. Two-thirds of the senators were too many to be solved by purges. Once the purge was launched, Rome might fall directly into civil strife.

Any empire is a combination of many interest groups, and the rules of the political game are the result of mutual compromise. If you want to overturn the table, you will inevitably face heavy opposition.

"Report, the Duke of the North has begun to lead his troops southward!"

"Have you prepared a backup plan in advance?"

Octavian narrowed his eyes as he looked at the city guardian who came back to report.

"Tell me more details!"

"The Duke of the North is leading nearly 100,000 people southwards, and is heading towards the New Rome City at high speed. Among them are the Xinghan Empire's legions. We dare not investigate further and can only watch from afar!"

The city guardian's words made Octavian's face change slightly.

You know, in order to attack Heaven, they mobilized as many troops as possible from all over the country. The remaining troops were no problem dealing with the Duke of the North, but the mixed Star Han soldiers among them made Octavian very concerned.

He couldn't help but wonder if the other party's quick reaction was something they had planned in advance. He vaguely guessed that the other party's plan might not be to attack Wei to save Zhao.

"Your Majesty Octavian, is this also part of your calculation?" Caracalla appeared in the meeting room and questioned Octavian bluntly.

It is unknown whether capturing Jumonga would be a blessing or a curse for Rome. It was necessary for Octavian, but it was a complete mistake for him. The biggest reason why he can still hold this position is because of Xinghan's support.

Before he seized the real power of Rome, he and Xinghan were grasshoppers standing on the same rope. Even though Xinghan could retreat, he had no room to retreat.

"Your Majesty Octavian, the interests of Rome must be protected. If you insist on abandoning the city of New Rome, we will have to summon the army to maintain the safety of Rome!" Caracalla's speech instantly aroused the echo of a group of senators.

Although they did not think that the Northern Duke's army could reach the city of New Rome, everything needed a reasonable excuse, especially when Caracalla put forward this statement, they only needed to support it for their own interests.

Octavian's face looked a little ugly. When he was considering for Rome, Caracalla actually took the opportunity to make trouble and want power. This undoubtedly showed that Caracalla had grown up and was a qualified monarch, but he was growing up at the wrong time!

It's totally holding you back!
