Chapter 615: Who's the Best Guy (Second Update)

"In this way, on the frontal battlefield, my Huns won't be able to share much with the soldiers of Daqin!"

Xiang Yu looked at Han Xin's self-confidence and couldn't help reminding him, of course, he also knew that the cavalry under his command was still very important to reduce the casualties of the soldiers under his command as a surprise soldier, but if Daqin couldn't withstand it on the frontal battlefield, everything would be in vain.

"We just want to see what the real strength of the Roman cavalry is, if our combat strength still can't catch up with them on the frontal battlefield, then whether we can hold Seleucus is a matter of two things, the king's plan for the future is also based on the comparison of combat effectiveness between us and the Romans!"

Since Han Xin has already said this, of course Xiang Yu has to find out what he can find out, not to mention that whether it is Yinggao or Han Xin, they don't mean to hide it from him at all.

"If Daqin's cavalry does not lose ground in the battle with the Romans, and this battle can really end in our great victory, will the emperor plot against a large territory outside of the Seleuc?"

Regarding Xiang Yu's question, Han Xin didn't have any surprised expression, but sighed and said: "The monarch naturally has a grand ambition in his heart, but with the temperament of the monarch, he naturally still uses the casualties of our soldiers as the standard for judging a war, even if he defeats the Romans this time, but if the casualties of our soldiers are not small, then the monarch will not allow us to attack any forces in the short term." And for Shan Yu, the king is a person who says the same, since he has already signed an alliance with Shan Yu, the king will naturally always be in accordance with the covenant, if my Great Qin wins, the benefits of the Xiongnu will definitely be indispensable! This time, for example. ”

As soon as Xiang Yu heard this, he knew that Han Xin must have come with benefits, and he didn't say anything polite at the moment, just waiting for Han Xin to say the benefits that Yinggao could give to the Huns.

"According to the king's meaning, Seleuc is bordering the territory of the Xiongnu, and my Daqin's heavy troops are guarding here, which will naturally make Shan Yu's heart feel more uneasy, the king's idea is that Daqin will replace some of the Xiongnu's territory in this Mauryan Dynasty with Seleuc's territory, so that Daqin can enter Seleuc without passing through the territory of the Xiongnu, and the Xiongnu can also make their territory bigger, I don't know what Shan Yu wants?"

After finishing speaking, Han Xin came to the map of Xiang Yu's mansion and pointed out a few cities with his own hands, obviously the cities that he wanted to exchange with Xiang Yu.

Xiang Yu saw that Yinggao only asked him to take out four cities, which was regarded as opening a passage to Seleu for Daqin, and almost one-third of Seleu was given to Xiang Yu.

Obviously, Xiang Yu doesn't know how much of a bargain he has taken advantage of, the population and resources of these cities are very big supplements to the Xiongnu, and they are much better than the foundation of the Peacock Empire.

This is the price that Yinggao wants to pay in order to use the 100,000 horses of the Huns, Xiang Yu is obviously very satisfied, in the early days of the alliance with Daqin, he was very afraid that Daqin would give him a little bit of food, but now, that kind of situation obviously did not happen, not only did it not happen, but also made the strength of the Huns not know how much stronger than before.

"So it is to make the sacrifice of Daqin in vain, now the Xiongnu is and Daqin are both prosperous, a situation of loss, Rome such a strong enemy to attack the territory occupied by Daqin, the Huns naturally can not sit idly by, even if the king did not give the Huns so many benefits, I will also send troops, if the Seleuc is taken by the Romans, the Huns will be destroyed by the Romans first, so this war I Huns are duty-bound!"

Of course, Xiang Yu, who should express his position, will not be on a bad note, and of course Xiang Yu knows that if even Great Qin can't beat the Romans, he won't have to take care of it, and he should directly withdraw to the Western Regions, so if he contributes himself, it will be considered for himself.

In order to prepare for this war, Han Xin and Meng Tian studied it for almost several days before going to the territory of the Xiongnu, and the two of them developed a strategy that was already relatively perfect in their opinion.

At this time, facing Xiang Yu, a general who was not weaker than the two of them, Han Xin unreservedly told him what he had discussed with Meng Tian, after all, if Xiang Yu had any better way, there was still time, and they could definitely improve it.

Han Xin and Xiang Yu discussed the strategy of this battle for the time being, and the preparations on the Roman side were also in full swing, and the envoy would often go to Huhai's city to ask if there was any change in Huhai's Seleuc's territory.

And Hu Hai has always been closely observing Seleuc, but except for the daily dispatch of people, Han Xin and Meng Tian are not abnormal at all, looking at the posture as if Seleu is already safe after repelling the 100,000 horses.

The envoy got the information from Hu Hai and naturally did not doubt him, he knew that the emperor of Great Qin was still in Xianyang City, which was not known how far away, and Seleu only had two generals of Great Qin, generals, then the Romans seemed to be just improvising and resisting after Seleuc encountered a crisis, as for any big decisions, they would definitely not be able to make them.

By this time, the Romans had already gathered an army of more than 300,000 people, at least in terms of quantity, they thought that they must have surpassed the number of soldiers of Great Qin in Seleuc, because they knew that although Great Qin's army did not suffer any major casualties when they attacked Seleu before, there were still 30,000 or 40,000 losses before and after, and now Great Qin was full of 2670,000 troops.

In this case, they knew that as long as they could bring these horses to the territory of Seleu without Philip V's knowledge, then by the time Philip V reacted, Seleu would already be Romans, which would be a game for them to kill two birds with one stone.

In the process, Huhai had apparently become a place for the Romans to obtain information, and finally, while Huhai waited, the Roman messenger finally came with the last news.

He gave Huhai a place, which was not very far from the place where Seleuc and Huhai were, but it was very convenient. He asked Hu Hai to take his soldiers and horses to that place at a certain date, neither too early nor too late.

Of course, Hu Hai knew that the Romans wanted to give Daqin a surprise attack, so he kept it so secret, and when he promised the Roman envoy, he discussed with Zhao Cheng and Zhao Hu.

"In my opinion, Daqin's troops in Seleu are already less than 300,000, and what can be used is about 200,000, and the Romans sent at least 300,000 troops, even if Daqin's cavalry is very strong, can it still organize an effective counterattack if the Romans' surprise attack is successful?"

"Childe means that we can't let the Romans raid succeed?" As soon as Zhao Cheng heard Hu Hai's words, he knew what was going on in his heart.

"That's not it, we have to analyze who can have some advantages if the Romans and Great Qin really fight this time, and then talk about the rest, if Great Qin can have a lot of advantages, if we let Great Qin know the news in advance under such circumstances, it will be a displeasure between the two ends, and the effect I want to achieve is to let both sides lose more than 200,000 horses, only in that case, can we have the opportunity to get involved in Seleuc!"

Zhao Cheng and Zhao Hu both understood at this time that what they wanted to play was a game of dancing on the blade, and once the strength of the two sides was different, Hu Hai would not get the slightest benefit.

And Hu Hai obviously didn't take the words of the Roman messenger as a thing, although Hu Hai's current strength is not good, but he has his background, he has his persistence, the Romans treat him like a flower child, has made him hate the arrogance of the Romans in his heart, he actually wants to make the Romans pay the price more than anyone else, but he doesn't have this ability, so he can only lay out a game.

"Childe, we have been monitoring Meng Tian and Han Xin during this time, they have obviously relaxed their vigilance at this time because they had defeated the other party's 100,000 army before, if they suddenly attacked Seleu with more than 300,000 horses at this time, I am afraid that even Han Xin and Meng Tian will be very passive!"

Zhao Hu has been monitoring Seleu's movements during this time, and Hu Hai's news has also been passed on to Hu Hai's mouth, of course, he also thinks that in the case of insufficient troops and defenselessness, even if the Great Qin cavalry as the defending side is strong, it may suffer a big loss this time.

"In this way, we really can't do exactly what the envoy ordered, since the Romans have set a date for the assembly, it is estimated that after arriving at the assembly place, they will directly send troops to attack Seleuc, that place is about a day away from Seleucus, so it seems that we let Han Xin and Meng Tian know about this two hours in advance, and it will be considered benevolent and righteous for them, as for how many men and horses can be left under the attack of the Romans, it depends on their creation."

Hu Hai made his decision after thinking about it for a while, he wanted to remind Han Xin and Meng Tian, but he didn't want them to be fully prepared, so he adopted such a compromise method.

Unbeknownst to Huhai, of course, Philip V had already received the news when the Romans quietly set out from their own territory.

Under normal circumstances, it is really possible for the Romans to send troops without Philip V, because the Romans can fight whoever they want, and they often send troops, but this time it is different, Yinggao has made it clear in his letter to Philip V that the Romans have sent a group of 100,000 soldiers and horses to attack Seleucus and successfully concealed Philip V.

This kind of thing happened to him or made Philip V feel quite faceless, so this time he knew that the Romans might send troops, so he naturally kept an eye on them, and it turned out that the movements of 300,000 people still couldn't hide from Philip V.

As soon as the Romans made a move, Philip V informed Han Xin and Meng Tian, and although Hu Hai seemed to them to have not moved, they were actually ready to fight.

According to the strategy before Han Xin and Philip V, Philip V did not have to rob the Romans to fight halfway, so although the fight was happy, there was no surprise effect.

Han Xin told Philip V that he must pretend that he had not discovered anything, and that he could only send troops to block the Romans' retreat when the Romans had already arrived outside the city of Seleuc and started attacking and engaged the cavalry of Daqin.

Although Philip V didn't know where the generals of Great Qin came from, he could withstand the courage of the Romans' attack, but he was not familiar with Great Qin before, and people wanted to fight tough battles themselves, so they left simple things to him, but Philip V was of course disrespectful.

In this way, Philip V watched the Romans approach Seleucus all the way with their little brothers, but he did not send troops, in fact, seeing the behavior of the Romans, Philip V really wanted to give them some color directly on the way, the Romans were so cautious, not avoiding others, but avoiding him Philip V.

And when this part of the Romans directly took Seleucus, they would no longer carry him, but would immediately point the finger at Macedonia, and at that time, it would not be the Romans who would be attacked on their backs, but Philip V. But after thinking about it, he still held back, because Philip V thought about what the Roman consuls and the so-called Senate would be like if the plan he had made with the Great Qin people really succeeded.

This time, the Roman consul still did not go out in person, but he also sent a few generals who were somewhat famous in Rome, although he didn't care much about Daqin, but such a long distance, such a large scale, in the history of the Romans sent troops is rare.

"Has that traitor to Great Qin been notified? As the younger brother of Emperor Daqin, he was able to follow us to slaughter his own people, and it was really an insult to the glory of our Roman nobles to be in the company of such a person! ”

A general saw that the men and horses he was bringing were about to arrive at the designated place, he thought of Hu Hai, and said with great disdain.

"That person has the royal blood of the purebred Great Qin, we have mastered him, if we can attack the entire Great Qin in the future, it is still very good to put him there as a puppet, so it is better not to provoke him at this time!"
