Chapter 644: Undercurrent

A seed, the past few years are not long, but it is not short, Zhao Hu knows that the people of Daqin are now very supportive of Yinggao, but there is one place that may be a little worse, this place needless to say, is Pei County.

Liu Bang and Zhao Cheng were really two people who couldn't fight together, but because Liu Bang and many of the people under his command were personally ordered to be executed by Yinggao, Zhao Cheng secretly still had some research on Liu Bang, of course, inside and outside the city through the hands of Zhao Hu and Zhao Gang.

Zhao Cheng knew that Liu Bang and the generals under his command, including those soldiers who had been following him, were almost all the people who followed him in Peixian and the surrounding areas, in other words, Yinggao had to kill tens of thousands of Peixian people while exterminating Liu Bang.

Of course, there will be deaths in the war, and these deaths are of course normal, but this is the same as in Hu Hai's heart before, although the people of Pei County have lost their lives a little lightly because of Liu Bang's anti-Qin efforts, but if someone really pokes this matter out within the scope of Pei County at this time, and then carries out some processing, it is not very difficult to ignite the anger of the people in a county.

Zhao Hu didn't know if this would be able to make some waves in the territory of Great Qin, but it was always better to try it than not to try, but with the current distance between Rome and Great Qin, the cycle of getting news by doing so would still be a bit long.

Fortunately, Zhao Hu knew the secret contact information between Zhao Cheng and Zhao Gang, if Zhao Gang was still alive, no matter how far it went on, Zhao Hu would still be able to contact him.

One of the things that is a little unreliable in Zhao Hu's heart is that at this time, Hu Hai and Zhao Cheng must have obviously been executed in Xianyang City somewhere, and such a big thing happened in Daqin, if Zhao Gang had been paying attention to the movements of Xianyang City, he would definitely know, once Zhao Gang knew that Zhao Cheng was dead and didn't want to respond to Zhao Hu's words, Zhao Hu's wishful thinking would be in vain, no matter whether Liu Bang's child existed or not, Zhao Hu would be beyond the reach of the whip.

After thinking about it, Zhao Hu finally decided to reveal this matter to the Roman consuls, after all, once it becomes a miracle soldier, if it doesn't work, it will not have any impact on the situation at this time, and now if Zhao Hu wants to contact Zhao Gang, it is basically impossible to rely on himself, he has to rely on the intelligence network of the Romans to send his letters to the Peacock Dynasty, and then send them to the territory of Great Qin through the Peacock Dynasty, so as to reach Zhao Gang's hands.

When Zhao Hu told the Roman consuls about this, to his surprise, the Roman consuls were very interested in this matter.

"If there really is the son of the enemy who was executed by the emperor of Great Qin, you must do your best to do this matter, once you can finally transfer the emperor of Great Qin from the Seleuces back to the territory of Great Qin. Our plan has succeeded, we can use this time to launch an offensive against Macedonia, if this matter is handled well, together with the Seleuc, we can also defeat it, the presence or absence of the emperor of Great Qin will have a very great impact on the combat effectiveness of the Great Qin warriors. ”

The Roman consul was very supportive of his plan, Zhao Hu was naturally happy, not to mention anything else, what he could be sure of was that Zhao Gang should be alive and well, but Liu Bang, who may have just understood something according to his age, is not sure whether he will be able to live to such an age, after all, in this era, even if a child without parents has some basic care, the probability of being able to grow up is very small.

This matter was decided by the Roman consul and Zhao Hu on the same day, Zhao Hu wrote a rich letter, in which he had already told his current situation and requirements for Zhao Gang, Zhao Hu believed that Zhao Gang could only live an incognito life in the realm of Daqin, if he knew that there was a chance to get rid of such a life, he would definitely spare no effort to do so.

In fact, the previous Roman consuls did not have so many hearts, but through the important events of Daqin that he knew from Zhao Hu's mouth, he found that a very different thing between the Daqin people and the Romans was that the Daqin people were very scheming in doing things, and their many battles of winning more with less were actually based on strategy.

The Romans, on the other hand, had been solving problems by sheer force before, and their cavalry had expanded their territory to the extent they were now, and if they continued to expand, they would still need their iron cavalry.

This time against the Senate, it was almost the first time that the Roman consuls used conspiracy to solve the problem, he had almost never used conspiracy before, and this time he was forced to use Zhao Hu because he was eager to gain control of Rome, and used conspiracy to wipe out the Senate.

After using this conspiracy, the Roman consuls learned that it was easier to do things secretly than on the surface, and although sometimes the risks were greater, the cost was very small.

For example, when the consul asked Zhao Hu to assassinate those elders, once the matter failed, as long as the consul killed Zhao Hu, who had been in one-way contact with him, there would naturally be nothing, and he would hardly pay any other price.

For example, this time Zhao Hu brought up this matter, that is, Zhao Hu himself left an internal response in the territory of Daqin, and if he used this matter by himself, even if he failed, it still had no impact on him, but Zhao Hu's internal response to stay in the territory of Daqin might be enough to choke.

For Ying Gao, the first thing he didn't expect was that Zhao Hu and Qi Yi, the two fish who slipped through the net, went directly to Rome and were reused, and he couldn't imagine that Zhao Cheng still had such a hand in the territory of Daqin.

The two countries are at war, each with their own ability, and Yinggao's current ability is to unite all the forces that can be united in the world, so as to form a force that is much stronger than his own alone, and then find a path that the Romans could not imagine, and give them a fatal blow.

And the Roman consul's current ability is to prepare for the defense, and at the same time want to use some of the conspiracy behind it to weaken Yinggao's power.

In fact, the Roman consuls did not realize this, the reason why Yinggao used some strategies to win the battle before, it was not that Yinggao was born willing to use strategies to win the battle, Yinggao also likes to be a frontal player, but before he faced all the opponents who were stronger than him in the process of consolidating Daqin's power, this is not what he can choose, if he really has hard power, who is willing to use a roundabout method to deal with the enemy?

In other words, when the Roman consuls changed their usual strategy of facing Yinggao and adopted the so-called strategy, in fact, in the final analysis, it was just because the Roman consuls did not have any certainty of victory when facing Yinggao head-on, and he was always afraid that once Yinggao's Great Qin cavalry and their allies attacked their own territory under his command, it would create a very passive situation for himself, and even shake the Roman dynasty's rule over this area.

War is indeed cruel and cannot be lost, but Yinggao has never been victorious; Who are you afraid of, whether it is Zhao Gao and Yan Le, who wanted to put themselves to death all the time in the court of Daqin, or who never led troops later, he led a large army to quell the rebellion, Yinggao has always been attacking, no matter how many or few people he has under him, he has never been passive.

Because Yinggao knows that once passivity becomes a habit, then what awaits him can only be destruction, from the destruction of Liu Bang, Xiang Yu, to the defeat of the Xiongnu, the Peacock Dynasty, Seleucus, and the territory of Daqin has never been violated by any large and small forces, if Yinggao has been guarding the one-third of an acre of land in Daqin without making any moves. Then forces like the Xiongnu and Nanyue will always covet the territory of Daqin.

It is precisely because Yinggao knows this, and he has seen too much history in later generations, so he knows a truth, that is, if you want to make the enemy dare not attack you, the only way is to destroy them.

This is the only criterion that Yinggao believes in in this era, and it is by virtue of this criterion that Yinggao's people are overwhelmed in just a few years, although it seems that they have only won a Mauryan Dynasty and Seleucus next to the Mauryan Dynasty, there are still hundreds of large and small forces in the middle, but the real rest is Rome.

Coming to this point, it is even more impossible for Yinggao to stop his footsteps, he knows that what he is doing is something that no one has ever done in the future until more than two thousand years later, if the descendants of Yan and Huang become the masters of this world in this era, Yinggao believes that although their rule may not last long, it will definitely last for a long time.

Han Xin's progress was far lower than Yinggao's expectations, seeing that he might not be able to return to the realm of Daqin on time, Yinggao was also relieved, if Yinggao returned to Xianyang City at this time, it could only give the soldiers who were here to prepare for a big fight with the Romans a feeling that the emperor might not attach great importance to us.

Once these soldiers formed such a feeling, Yinggao knew that this battle would be difficult to fight, after all, they were a team led by the consul himself, and the level of leadership itself was different.

Just when Yinggao was a little anxious in his heart, a news from Rome made his brows tightly locked.

Meng Tian's time in Seleu is not short, coupled with his good ally Philip V, Yinggao wants to know some major events on the Roman realm is still very easy, since Yinggao arrived on the Seleu territory, the news of Daqin and Rome will be sent to him regularly, only through his own rear and enemy news, Yinggao can decide whether he should continue to stay here with peace of mind.

The news came that the five senators who held the main authority in the Roman court had all died in various places in a month, which directly led to the disintegration of the senate, and none of the Roman nobles were willing to take the position of the senator, because they did not know when death would come.

"This must have been the work of the Roman consul, and at this time he knew that the Senate obviously wanted to concentrate all the power of Rome in his own hands, and only in this way could he make all the nobles and troops of Rome obey his command, so that he could exert the greatest energy in the war with us."

After Yinggao got the news, he immediately summoned Meng Tian and Xiang Yu to his side, which has to be said to be a big deal, Yinggao had always hoped that the conflict between the Roman Senate and the generals with troops could make his offensive road smoother.

Now it is clear that the Roman consuls are also aware of this, which is why he chose to do it at this time, and he did it cleanly.

Ying Gao knew that his opponent must be very difficult, because the Senate had existed in Rome for a long time, and the Senate represented by the Senate were the best of the Roman aristocracy, and they were able to kill the Senate within a month without revealing any flaws, which was not something that an ordinary person could do, plus this Roman consul was able to win several battles in succession with the elite Macedonian cavalry led by Philip V himself. It can all show that this guy is a rare talent in the world.

"Your Majesty, since the enemy has already made moves, should we take advantage of the fact that the Roman consuls have not yet fully controlled the nobles in their territory to lead the army to attack, otherwise wait another two months, and when he completely controls everything in Rome, we will attack again, but it may not be so simple."

Meng Tian gave his opinion at that time, he always felt that with their current strength, it would be enough to attack, after all, they still have the support of the Huns, as well as the support of Philip V.

"No, the only thing we can rely on in this battle is our Great Qin's own cavalry."
