Volume 2 Sea Country Cloud Sky Chapter 150 Turning the River and the Sea (1)

From the Sani Valley to the Knight's Fort on the Canaan coast, we walked more than 200 miles for ten days. Fastest update┏┛

Despite being a vast and sparsely populated barren land, the fall of Arnier Manor spread like wings to every tribe and lord's estate in the mountains.

The indigenous Semites, who had long been bullied by the Roman aristocracy, and the serfs of the granges, came to lead the way.

Pray that we will go and kill their lords, take back their land, and free the enslaved people there.

Think of us as the messengers of God who have come to save them.

In this way, we have also changed from the original journey of revenge for personal grievances to the righteous teachers who now act for heaven.

Along the way, three or four Haoqiang Granges for planting flax, wheat, and lavender dyes were built, and the team of the uprising grew from the original 60 strong men to 3,000 seven days later.

Among them were the two tribal forces that had failed in the uprising in the southeastern part of the province of Canaan, and they also volunteered to join us.

The development of events exceeded everyone's expectations, and Ronier, the Persian commander who had commanded only a hundred soldiers at most, has now become a real general with heavy troops.

There are more people, there are more things, eating, drinking, Lazar, military horses, food and grass are all very headaches.

The grain and grass scavenged from a few manors were only enough for all the men and horses for three days, and although tens of thousands of gold coins were also raised for military expenses, it was also 500 miles away from the nearest main grain producing area.

Besides, the news of our revolt must have reached the Knights' Castle and its surrounding Roman city-states, lands, and lords' estates.

The counterinsurgency army from all walks of life may arrive at any time, and the uprising that we were originally happy to enmity and revenge has now reached a critical moment of survival, and it is no longer possible to think about gathering and dispersing.

What to do next requires re-planning and personnel arrangement.

For this reason, after meeting with Ronier, Salander and others, I decided to set up camp on the spot and hold the first general meeting since the uprising to discuss the plan and find a way out.

In addition to the sixty heroes of our original Oriental Island, the attendees included two leaders of the Canaanite rebels, Hami and Byrne.

"Brothers, I gathered everyone to come here today for only two things, one is for personnel and the other is for the future! Ha ha! The personnel arrangement will be in charge! I am the commander of the East Lord, I am in charge of the march and the war, and the East Lord is in charge of the whole army's food, clothing, food, internal affairs planning, and recruitment! Hami and Byrne are lieutenants! The rest of the brothers are divided into various captains! What do you think! ”

The venue was held on a flat grassy beach, and the participants sat on the ground.

In fact, at the beginning of the uprising, everyone had no plans and opinions, and the ups and downs of their future life experiences were all left to God, and everything was decided by the principal Ronier and me.

So Ronier made his own decisions, arranged all the personnel arrangements in a few words, and everyone applauded in unison.

I was the only one who was quite surprised, Ronier didn't consult me beforehand, and I didn't expect this guy to leave all the chores of thousands of men and horses to me to deal with, and he himself was a hand-off general.

However, the wood is already in the boat, and since everyone has no opinion, I can't shirk it, so as not to shake the morale of the army.

"The second matter is very important, I can't call the shots alone, and I have to listen to the opinions of the Eastern Lord and everyone! What do we do next, we can't go around in circles in this desert where birds don't! Whether it's going north or south, whether it's a small fight or turning over the river and the sea, everyone can talk freely! Ha ha! But there is a rule I want to say in front, now we are grasshoppers on a rope, at this time there is only one way to die, and the Romans can't spare us! Therefore, in the future, those who leave the team will be killed! ”

Ronill, clad in armor and holding a Persian sword, stood in front of the crowd and spoke impassionedly.

When it came to killing, this guy swung his scabbard in his hand and made a slashing gesture in the air.

I think he gave this instruction specifically to us Orientals, because none of the uprisers could be more attentive than us.

The little sisters Gulandor and Shamihan, who were sitting next to me, looked at me uneasily, and everyone had the feeling that they had just come out of the wolf's den and entered the tiger's den.

"Lord of the East! If you have anything to add, tell everyone! ”

Ronier also sensed that something was wrong with what he said, and laughed and bowed to me.

He doesn't really have any outside intentions, he just wants us to stay and work with him.

"What the general said just now is extremely true! Now we are doing things for the sake of heaven, and we can't be a rabble! There must be rules for everything, and orders and prohibitions must be enforced! There are two propositions on how to go next, one of which is to conquer the knight's fort immediately! Antonio has been operating here for so many years, and the accumulation of goods and money must be fruitful, and he is also the only garrison of Rome in the central and western part of the Canaanite province, and is the pillar of the lords of the city-states everywhere! Taking him can not only solve our urgent need for food and grass, but also break the enemy's military morale, so that the other side cannot join forces against us in the short term, and give our army a chance to breathe! Second! ”

I had never done such a tirade, and in between translations, I quickly cleared my slightly confused thoughts.

Fortunately, under the coercion of Xin Fuzi's ring ruler, he was familiar with Taishi Gong's "Gaozu Benji", and he knew the truth of strategizing and winning thousands of miles away.

Today finally came in handy, it's really a book to be used when you hate it!

"I've been here in Rome for two years, and I know a little bit about the local products and people! The next place to go is that there are two places for your reference! One is the Nile Delta in the southwestern province of Egypt, where the land is fertile and abundant! But the downside is that we are alone, the Egyptians hated the Romans, but they did not necessarily accept us, and they lacked the foundation of the people! The other is the Hetao Mountains in the vicinity of Antioch and the city-states of Beroeia in the northeastern provinces of Syria! The advantage of this place is that it is located in the source area of the fertile soil of the two rivers, and the grain and grass are abundant and worry-free! In addition, even if we fail to rise in the future, there is a way out, and three hundred miles to the east is Sassanid Persia, the homeland of General Ronier! At the same time, the mountains are high and dense, and any canyon can hide 100,000 military horses! The disadvantage is that in the northern region, the farmers and industrialists live and work in peace and contentment, and there are many garrisons in the city-states. Hehe, there is an ancient proverb in our East, which is called before the soldiers and horses move the grain and grass, and the army cannot go without food for a day! According to the current momentum, it is estimated that our team will break through 10,000 people just around the corner! At that time, grain and grass should be the top priority, so where will we go next, I must go to a place with abundant food and sufficient water! The desert Gobi like Canaan is not a place for us to live for a long time! ”

Since I am in charge of the grain and grass in the army, the team must be drawn to the agricultural areas where grain is abundant.

This barren land under my feet that I can't find a family for dozens of miles, and I won't buy a grain of grain if I give me ten thousand gold.

But my selfish desire was to make it northeast, to Beloea, or to the fertile northeast of the Euphrates and Tigris rivers.

It is very close to the Gambisi Pass, and there is a direct connection to the Chi Road, which will be much more convenient for us to return to the east in the future.

My proposal was very well received by everyone, and everyone had a lively discussion.

To Egypt in the west, to Antioch in the north, and to Babylon in the east, all kinds of ideas were found.

In the end, General Ronier made the final decision, first taking the Knight's Castle, and then marching north to capture the city-state of Berroea.

Get in touch with the border garrisons of Sassanid Persia, and recapture the western homeland of Persia in one fell swoop.

If successful, Ronil would become the immortal hero of the Sassanid Persian kingdom.

Just like the former general of our Eastern Tuhan Kingdom and the "champion Hou" Huo Qubing who recaptured the land west of the river from the Huns.
