Chapter 1278: Changes in the Far West

When the Central Plains disputes resumed, there were also changes in the Western Regions, and the Roman envoys finally arrived in the Western Regions, and Li Dao's translation group from Wusun, Cheshi and other places began to walk the Silk Road to the Han Dynasty under the leadership of An Yue and Wu Xi.

At this time, Li Dao's pressure was very great, and his troops were already less than three thousand, although Li You had already sent the reply letter to Li Dao urgently, but if the troops were not in place, Li Dao would be an empty shell.

If you didn't feel it when you fought at the time, now that you think about it, you can only say that he was in a cold sweat, because that battle was too thrilling, and even with Li Dao's experience, when he looked back at the regiments in the Central Plains who had fought against him, he had a feeling that there were only a handful of people who could withstand the ten waves of arrows in the battle!

If it weren't for the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, which itself was known for its defensive power and impact power, those ten waves of arrow rain were enough to shoot most of the soldiers.

Therefore, Li Dao is faintly a little jealous of Daqin, Daqin's soldier quality and organizational strength may be relatively stronger than that of Dahan, if it is a miscellaneous soldier, then it is basically a head, to fight against an opponent of this level, at least elite!

Similarly, after returning to his own territory, Ganassis became more and more heavy the more he thought about it, and felt that he could not explain it in his letter, so he took his deputy to Rome, as a duke of a border county, although his strength was not the strongest, but as a duke, his political leanings were enough to affect many people!

If the upper echelons of Rome were still talking nonsense because there were no enemies, and they were still torn apart by the successive deaths of Commodus and Perdinax and the accession of Severus, then now Rome must not continue to fight.

There is not only a rest in the world that has been fighting against the Romans for more than a hundred years, but there is also a broader empire behind the rest. That used to be only a legend, I don't know if it's powerful or not. But now after the fight, it is enough to make people fearful!

This kind of important news had to be known to all the upper echelons, and the quality and combat effectiveness of the empire, not to mention anything else, was enough to make all the Romans wary.

Of course, the Romans did not communicate with the Han Dynasty. Ganassis flipped through the books or found the last emperor Marco thirty years ago? Records of Aurelius' envoys to Dahan.

However, it didn't work, although the envoy successfully returned, but no one took it seriously from top to bottom, after all, the Han Dynasty was too far away, and the envoy didn't bring back too important news, so he brought back some gifts.

So everyone didn't pay attention, but this time it was different, he, the Duke of Rome. Ganassis, who led his army to conquer Parthia, fought head-on with the cavalry led by Li Dao, the Marquis of Chiyang, the Great Han, and eliminated the hired archers, and the two sides suffered three to one losses!

This level of confrontation was enough to make the Roman upper echelons understand that the distant empire that had been circulating in myths and legends had arrived, and their Roman opponent was no longer the Parthia that had almost killed them, but the legendary land of silk gold!

"Duke of Ganassis, how did you get back to Rome from Mesopotamia?" Ganassis rushed back to Rome with his deputy at top speed. The tribune of the Roman capital was immediately astonished when he saw the duke of the border county.

"There's something important to talk to the council." Ganassis said indifferently, if he used to think that the division of the parliament was very beneficial for him to expand his power, then now, as the Duke of the border county. As the commander in chief of the front line of the Guardian Empire, he really has to talk to the council.

Ignoring the tribune, Ganasis went straight to the House. Before talking to the council he needed to meet with a man, the current Roman emperor. Severus, if he was a little unhappy with Severus being emperor before. Well now, Rome needs an emperor!

Not to mention that Li Dao is under a lot of pressure, Ganassis is also under a lot of pressure, Ganassis, who fought with Li Dao, is also under a lot of pressure now, if Rome is torn apart at this time, the first person to lie down is himself, Rome must be unified!

"Duke Ganassis?" Severus frowned when he saw Ganassis pushing the door in, he had always felt bad about Ganassis, the dukes of the border counties, after all, these people didn't support him very much.

"I've seen Your Majesty." Ganassis bent slightly.

"You're welcome, coming back from Mesopotamia, the Duke must have been tired of traveling." Severus asked, nodding his head.

"The Romans need a tough monarch, and it seems to me that the current chaotic House needs to be unified by His Majesty!" Ganassis went straight to the point and threw out his purpose directly, since he was the first duke of the border county to explicitly support the new Roman emperor, there was no need to play false.

Severus's pupils shrank suddenly, he originally planned to use Ganassis, a duke who said that he was not strong or not, and said that he was not weak, and then he personally led the army to defeat Parthia (this is what he did) and consolidate his position, but he didn't expect Ganassis to be so straightforward!

"The Duke has something to tell me?" Severus was silent for a while and asked, no matter what the reason, the first Duke of the Border County to fall to himself is very important, there are currently five Duke of the Border County, and they all have soldiers, food and land in their hands.

Ganassis recounted all the things that had happened before Severus to Severus, and the more Severus listened, the brighter his eyes became, for the current Rome, the enemy is not a problem, the problem is that there is no enemy!

For a country, there is nothing more terrible than invincibility, once invincible, there is no other choice but infighting, if the Romans in the previous life were overturned and there is a reason for lead, then for the current Romans infighting is the biggest problem.

Like the Han Dynasty, they were basically invincible, as long as the countries around them that did not exceed the extreme wall of the empire were all beaten by them, they were the strongest in this radiation range, and basically no one dared to challenge their authority.

It is precisely because of this strength, because of this completely trouble-free environment, that the inferiority of human beings has exploded, and the Roman Council has become a place of ridicule.

"Convene the Senate and make a pre-decision." Severus said to the clerk next to him.

Such a big matter, even if Severus is the Roman emperor, it is impossible to decide at once, he needs to consult with all the senators of the senate, and then he may even have to open a popular assembly that has not been opened for many years, of course, this is just a process, this is only to confirm his authority.

Of course, if the popular assembly is opened, the other four border dukes must also return, which will be absolutely beneficial to his rule, so after thinking about all this, Severus looked at Ganassis with much satisfaction. (To be continued.) )
