Ardashir was overwhelmed by Jiang Wei, and the domestic army was empty, so he had no choice but to send his younger brother Aldar to withdraw 200,000 horses and encircle and suppress the men and horses of Vologis VI. When Ardar received his brother's letter, he couldn't help but be worried, and finally blocked the remnants of Vologis VI's army in Armenia, and Maskha's 200,000 horses were pigs, enough for them to drink a pot, how could the whole army be wiped out overnight? Complaining is complaining, his own foundation is important, Aldar dispatched 200,000 horses, galloped to the country in the starry night, and rushed to Ctesiphon to accept Ardashir's dispatch.

Gaita quit, and after hearing the information, he came to Ardar with a menace, and when he saw it, he opened his mouth and shouted: "Damn Aldar, what are you doing?" ”

When Aldar saw Geta coming to the door, he knew that he was wronged, but as the son of the Roman Emperor Severus and the chief general of the Roman legion, how dare Geta offend, so he had to accompany him carefully and said: "Your Royal Highness Geta, I really have a last resort, please understand." ”

Gaita said loudly: "Our coalition army is more than 900,000, the Han army is only 700,000, you have withdrawn 200,000 troops, and the advantage has been lost, how can this battle be fought?" ”

"The Han army of 700,000, plus more than 300,000 mercenaries, has exceeded one million," Aldar said. How could the enemy, though he had many troops, be the opponent of the great Roman legions? Our elephant soldiers and cavalry in Persia were not vegetarians either. There is a saying in the Han Dynasty, called: soldiers are not expensive. How can we be afraid of those Han troops with average combat strength of the 700,000 elites of our coalition army? ”

Gaita was slapped by Aldar, and his heart suddenly relaxed, and he deliberately frowned and asked, "What are you suffering about?" Why don't you talk about it and talk about it for details. ”

Aldar sighed and said slowly, "Does Your Highness know about Vologis?" ”

"Of course I do. Your eldest brother saw the opportunity and took advantage of the infighting between his brothers to raise an army, so as to seize the land of the Rest Empire and establish your dynasty. ”

Aldar said: "Originally, our army of 200,000 had blocked Vologis' men and horses in Armenia, but I hated that my younger brother Mashar did not know how to use troops, and was turned over overnight by the remnants of the rest, and the 200,000 horses and horses were dissipated, and the remnants of the rest took the opportunity to jump out of Armenia and conquer the city in the west of our country. ”

Gaita secretly rejoiced in her heart, it turned out that there was such a big mess in Persia, should I tell my father the news, and take the opportunity to send troops to seize the territory of Persia? If there is a war in western Persia, the Persians will certainly be unfavorable to me, and my 500,000 people depend on the Persians for food and drink. What to do? What to do? It's a rare opportunity.

Seeing that Gaita's face was cloudy, Aldar thought that he was not satisfied with his explanation, and he didn't know that this guy's plan was to take away his family business, so he had to ask: "Your Highness, are you satisfied with my explanation?" ”

Gaita let out an "ah", came back to his senses, and said with a smile: "It turns out that there is such a big mess in your country, if 200,000 horses are not enough, I can send troops from the east of my country to help your country quell the rebellion." ”

Aldar said: "Thank you, Your Highness, for your heart, I believe that with my eldest brother's ability, the rebellion can be quelled, and it is only a matter of day." ”

"In that case, I don't want to say much," said Gaita. Your Royal Highness, your men and horses have withdrawn so much, and our army has become the main force, do you think the command of this battlefield should be up to me? ”

Aldar was shocked, this guy Gaita is going to be anti-guest, and the command can't be handed over at all, but the Roman army is 500,000, and his own men and horses are only more than 200,000, even counting the auxiliaries who transport grain and grass, it is only 400,000.

Ardar's mind turned sharply, and he said with a smile: "Respected Highness, the war is within our country, speaking of being familiar with the enemy situation and the terrain, of course it is still me, this command, Your Highness still doesn't want it, right?" ”

Gaita was a power-hungry man, and after the death of his father Severus, he fought against his brother Caracalla, who killed his brother and secured the throne of the emperor. Gaita probably didn't know at this time that his father was not far from meeting God.

Gaita said: "Your Royal Highness, I have been in Parthia for a long time, and when it comes to knowing the enemy's situation, it is not that I boast, not much worse than you; As for the geography of mountains and rivers, I have already traveled all over the neighborhood, the big rivers, the mountains, the villages and the plains, all of which are hidden in my heart. Do you think I should have command? ”

Aldar's chest was tight, but under the eaves, he smiled and said: "The war is within our borders, of course, the command cannot be handed over to you, Your Highness; If one day, Rome needs our aid, we will not fight for command. ”

Gaita sneered: "Our army has an absolute superiority in strength, how can we obey your command? If His Royal Highness does not hand over his command, our army will not cooperate with you in the battle. ”

The last thing Aldar wants to see is the result, this guy Gaita said so bluntly, if the command is not handed over, how can this battle continue? If Gaita slipped away and the Han army poured into the country, would Persia continue to exist?

Aldar had no choice but to compromise and said, "Your Highness, what do you think of this?" The war is commanded by the two of us," Gaita's face changed suddenly, and Aldar knew that he could not satisfy his appetite, and continued: "Of course, His Highness is the main one, and I am the auxiliary. ”

Gaita's face finally softened, and he said loudly, "That's it." With that, he ignored Aldar and walked out of the camp.

Seeing Geta's arrogant appearance, Aldar angrily kicked over the table in front of him, his eyes were confused, unspeakably aggrieved, and he was secretly ruthless, one day, he would definitely make Geta look good.

The garrisons around the city began to mobilize to the front line, and countless large villages were built along the Kushan border. The rear auxiliaries were busy transporting grain and grass supplies.

Liu Zhen's suggestion came to Liu Ze's hands, Liu Ze read it, handed it to Cao Cao, and when Cao Cao finished reading it, he said with a smile: "Wen Ruo and Wen He, if you want to do what I did in the Xianbei Grassland in Persia, what does Brother Meng De think?" ”

Cao Cao patted the case and said: "Mess with its foundation, force it to be uneasy, and have a good strategy." ”

Liu Zedao: "Since Brother Meng De also agrees, I will send the three of Zixiu, Ziyang, and Wenyuan to organize the young and strong, and be escorted into the country by our army to disturb the Persian roots." ”

Cao Cao said with a smile: "Millions of young people have entered Persia, and the situation should be waited and seen. ”

Liu Ze said with a smile: "When you tell the young and strong eight words." ”

Cao Cao asked with an "oh" sound, "I would like to hear about it." ”

"Avoid its edge and focus on the weakness."

"Wonderful, with these eight words, the loss of young and strong people has been greatly reduced, and there is a lot of gain."

Dawan, Kangju, Huathornzimo, Guishuang, and Tianzhu received Liu Ze's edict and quickly took action, making a fortune, how could such a good thing be missed? Tianzhu Qingzhuang believes in Buddhism, but the Buddha also needs silver, you carry your head to the temple to worship the Buddha, not only the Buddha is not happy, even the bald monks in the temple will not have a good face for you.

In addition to Tianzhu, the four countries were rich in good horses, and the young and strong men straddled their horses and whipped, carried rudimentary weapons on their backs, and began to assemble; Tianzhu Qingzhuang was unwilling to be left behind, and fighting for the Golden Light Bodhisattva was a big thing worth showing off, so five or six young and strong, riding an elephant, also rushed to the predetermined place to assemble.

I thought it would be good to have hundreds of thousands of young people participate, but when I got to the day of departure, the number of people reached more than 1.5 million. One and a half million people, the number is too huge, so they had to be divided into dozens of teams, selected the leading brother, carefully explained Emperor Liu Ze's eight-character policy, and promised that the Han army only needs to get one percent of the goods, and the rest will be owned by individuals.

The Han army contributed people and sent troops to escort them, and only collected one percent of the things, which is too righteous, right? One and a half million young and strong, in an excited mood, under the orderly arrangement of the Han army, embarked on the Golden Avenue to make a fortune.

Gaita received a report from the scouts that the Han army had gathered millions of young men outside the battlefield, and everyone was armed with swords and bows at their waists, and their faces turned green with fright. Where did the Han army come from with so many men, and the 700,000 people of the coalition army are not enough to stuff people's teeth. O God, save thy people, what shall I do?

Geeta remembered Aldar at this time, and hurried to find him to discuss countermeasures. Aldar said: "According to my scouts, it is only the people who have gathered, and how can they get to the battlefield without training? I guess this is a trick of the Han army, used to intimidate our coalition forces. ”

Gaita said: "There are too many people, what should I do?" ”

Ardar secretly despised in his heart, and said to Gaita: "Respected Highness, strictly order the army, defend the camp, if the Han army moves, let them not return." ”

Gaita said, "Okay, that's it." ”

So, the Persian and Roman coalition forces, standing on the high wall, watched the teams of men and horses bypass their own camps from afar and go away. The escorted Han army, one by one, opened their bows and arrows, and was ready to take precautions at any time. It's a pity that for five days in a row, there was no movement at all in the coalition camp, and the Han army had to withdraw to the camp.

The young men who entered Persia smoothly were like fish in water, and the villages and small towns were like autumn winds sweeping away the leaves. The Parthian region bore the brunt of the attack, and countless Parthians who had a slight resistance all left their bodies and went to the great god of light.

Cao Cao was shocked when he saw that the young men were in order, and asked Liu Zedao: "Why are the young men of a foreign country so obedient?" ”

Liu Ze said with a smile: "A Gao Zhe said that if you rely on the people closely and unite the people, you will be invincible. ”

Cao Cao said: "Who is this Gao Zhe's surname?" It's not a boast, a certain person once had no books and didn't read. ”

Liu Ze said with a smile: "Since Brother Meng De has no books and no reading, why don't you know the name of this Gao Zhe?" ”

Cao Cao suddenly spoke.
