How should the importance of credibility to a country be described? It can be defined as "priceless"!

The Roman law of contract was learned from the Greeks, who, having learned the original meaning of the contract, began to firmly defend the sanctity of the contract, believing that any unpredictable human nature has nothing to do with the degree of trust, and that a contract that is clearly written and unambiguous is truly binding.

The Romans also had a point of view that any credulous behavior was a fool, and it was not possible to judge whether a person had contributed to the country by whether a person's morality was good or bad, even if the guy who was so bad that he repeatedly did things that were beneficial to the country, then the villain was also a national hero.

Since the spirit of the Romans learned from the Greeks, there is no reason why Bactria, founded by Greeks, does not know the sacredness of the contract, but Bactria gradually began to understand that what he thinks is important is not necessarily so sacred to other nations or peoples.

"Yes, the Huns were very savage, they were almost completely uncivilized!" Apollodas also made a mission to the East to study the customs and customs, and he said: "It is a tribe that has been rising in recent years, and their destruction is extremely serious, and the destruction of families and wives is constantly taking place everywhere they pass. ”

Bactria was very wary of the westward migration of the Xiongnu...... No, maybe it shouldn't be said that it was the Xiongnu, it can only be said that it was the tribe of Maodun, after Touman was released back by the Han Empire, he declared Maodun the biggest traitor of the Xiongnu, and it was Maodun who made the victory of the Xiongnu at the source of the Yellow River defeated.

In addition, Touman also issued a speech to the Huns, saying that the reason why the Xiongnu would go south was because of the instigation of Maudun, and without Maudun, the Xiongnu would not have suffered such a serious defeat.

Touman is reasonable, and he also gives examples from previous history to prove that the Xiongnu did not have much conflict with the empire (Huaxia) in the south at all, and the two sides even cooperated well in the war against the Yueshi people.

The Huns, having suffered a crushing defeat, needed an outlet, they knew very well that they were not opponents of the empire, then it was necessary to look for an enemy from within.

Touman's remarks allowed the Xiongnu nobles and ordinary people to find an outlet, especially the victory of the Xiongnu in the war with Donghu, and further confirmed that the war to the south was defeated because of the betrayal of Maudun, and the responsibility was not on Touman or other Huns.

Touman's remarks were not without side effects, such as the Huns, who believed that it was Maudun's betrayal that allowed the empire to win, and they began to be unwilling to submit to the empire like a dog, and as a result, they launched an attack.

There is no doubt that those Xiongnu tribes who launched attacks on the border counties of the empire were punished most severely, and one after another the tribes that launched attacks on the border counties of the empire disappeared in the extermination of the Xiongnu court and the border army of the empire.

Was it really because of Mao Dun that the Xiongnu were defeated in the battle at the source of the Yellow River? Touman knew very well that it was not the case at all, they were defeated by the Imperial army in a frontal battle, there was no conspiracy at all, everything was a contest of absolute strength and strength. This kind of defeat is impossible to find at all, and he puts the blame for the defeat on Maudun as just a fig leaf.

"The man named Maudun, his clan is divided." Miratus pondered for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "This is the first time that psychological warfare has been used in the Han Empire, and it is clear that it has also been successful. ”

Ki Bru Wei. Luce. Scipio. Calvers nodded: "I think I understand, so this man named Maudun, after he split himself, was defeated by the army of the Han Empire?" ”

"Yes and no." Miratus shook his head: "It's the army of the Han Empire, but it's not a regular army, it's the army of an envoy corps." ”

"What do you mean?" Ki Bru Wei. Luce. Scipio. Kalvers was puzzled: "Is that what I understand?" ”

Milats was stunned, he didn't know that Kiruslivi. Luce. Scipio. How Kalvers understands it. "It may be incredible," he said, "but there is an envoy from the Han Empire. They claimed to be an envoy corps, but they had a huge army, according to the Han Empire's legion, it was a full army of 50,000 soldiers. ”

Ki Bru Wei. Luce. Scipio. Calvers listened attentively, and he turned to the clerk and ordered, "Remember, a legion of the Han Empire has 50,000 soldiers. ”

The number of legionnaires in the empire was never a secret, and countries such as Parthia and Bactria could find out with a little inquiry, but they did not know what the legionary structure was.

"Sure enough, it is a large country with a large population, and the envoy corps can actually take out a legion of soldiers to escort it!" Ki Bru Wei. Luce. Scipio. Calvers asked a little incredulously: "So, how should such a large team support their logistical supplies?" ”

Roman legions, divided into garrison and field armies. The number of garrisons is generally not so fixed, usually thousands to less than ten thousand, and in terms of equipment they only wear the necessary personal equipment; The establishment of the field army is divided into several levels, the highest level of the field army a regiment is 30,000 people, divided into infantry, cavalry, engineers, infantry and cavalry are easier to understand, the engineer is actually similar to the role of auxiliary arms, the engineer also needs to operate the catapult and other war machinery.

In recent years, the empire also has the existence of sappers, and the same as the Roman army, sappers are the operators of some large equipment, and then they have a special leading role in opening roads, building bridges, etc., so they are called combat sappers. And it seems that ...... Combat sappers have more than once shown their existential value, and even their formidable combat capabilities.

"They carried a lot of cattle and sheep, and they also had a lot of caravans in their ranks." Apollodas recalled, suddenly smiled, and said, "In addition, they were able to buy items along the way, and they were very generous with that. As he spoke, he took out his money bag and took out three currencies from it: gold, silver, and copper.

Ki Bru Wei. Luce. Scipio. Calvers frowned and took three different currencies, he found that the surface of the currency was very smooth to the touch, but there was a kind of gear gnashing around it, just thinking about it, he could understand that the gear was a design to prevent it from being scratched.

"They call the different currencies of gold, silver, and copper the terra, which is a very clever monetary system." Apollodas looked envious, and said, "In addition, you can observe carefully, their currency is not only full of precious metals, but also unimaginably good in quality. ”

Quality? In fact, it is the amount of gold, silver, and copper, and whether the value of money is seen as the weight of precious metals.

Ki Bru Wei. Luce. Scipio. There are too many secrets that Calphus discovered from the currency of the empire, such as the fact that the empire is not short of gold, silver, and copper, and the machinery industry of the empire will definitely develop to a certain extent.

"That's right, an empire that is expanding at a high speed, because it has been continuously expanded, has mineral resources that are equivalent to increasing all the time, how can it lack precious metals?" Ki Bru Wei. Luce. Scipio. Calvers was extremely interested: "Was the Han Empire very developed in terms of mechanical creation?" ”

"Yes, yes." Apollodas said in an exaggerated tone: "There are merchants who have returned from the East, and they have brought new news about that empire. It is said that the Emperor has officially addressed the nation, and the Empire has entered a new five-year period, and in the first five years, the Empire will enter the initial stage of industry. ”

Ki Bru Wei. Luce. Scipio. Calphus wasn't sure if he was right or wrong, the current script of the Roman Republic was a pictographic square script with a different grammar than the Greeks. Although many Roman aristocrats would have studied Greek specifically, there were so many kingdoms and city-states in Greece that God knows how many grammars and differences there were.

"You are not mistaken, they are indeed carrying out five years of industrial development, and because of this plan, they are going to stop waging war against foreign countries step by step." Mirats seemed to be happy and worried, in short, his expression was very complicated, and he said: "We are glad that the empire has stopped expanding outwards on a large scale. ”

Ki Bru Wei. Luce. Scipio. Calphus understood in seconds that Parthia and Bactria had always been afraid of the westward expansion of the Han Empire in the east, and the two countries were now at war with the Seleucid Empire.

Should the Han Empire focus on internal affairs and stop large-scale expansion? Ki Bru Wei. Luce. Scipio. Calvers began to feel that the empire he had not touched was more terrifying. The Romans had long discovered that expansion could not be the ultimate goal of land occupation, nor should it be an endless act.

Why Expand? The purpose of occupying land is to take advantage of the empire's territory rather than simply to expand it, and such expansion is a burden rather than a help, and can even be dragged down. The land under occupation needs to be able to be used, to the maximum extent possible, so that a virtuous cycle can be achieved.

Before Ki Ru Sri Wei. Luce. Scipio. Calvers knew that the Han Empire in the East had expanded in less than twenty years, nearly thirty times the size of the original, and he had always had difficulty understanding what such expansion meant, and felt that such expansion was to increase the country's land, but in fact the risks were constantly expanding.

Not only is it Kirusrivi. Luce. Scipio. Calvers, many Roman parliamentarians were of similar arguments, and some even asserted that the seemingly powerful Han Empire in the East, without seeing the risk of expansion, would only be temporary and would soon collapse on its own.

There will be such remarks, it is because Rome has encountered a similar situation, and that time it was also because the speed of expansion was so fast that it caused the "indigestion" of the country, but fortunately Rome detected the problem in time and dealt with it correctly.

"Sure enough, it's not a fluke that they're able to be strong!" Ki Bru Wei. Luce. Scipio. Calvers became more and more interested in the Han Empire in the East, and asked, "So have you seen their mechanical technology with your own eyes?" ”

Miratis and Apollodas looked at each other for a while, they had seen too many things in the Eastern Han Empire, and of course they had seen mechanical technology, but it was impossible to observe them in more detail, so they couldn't answer the question of Kiruslivi. Luce. Scipio. Calvers' words.

Parthia and Bactria now need help from the Roman Republic, not military, because they are too far away from the Roman Republic, with so many countries in between. What they needed was financial assistance from the Roman Republic, financial assistance to both countries.

The Roman Republic did give financial aid to Bactria and Parthia, but not for free, but as a loan.

While the Romans were lending to Parthia and Bactria, they were also lending to the Seleucid Empire. This is a difficult behavior to understand, because it is better to lend money to both sides of the war than to invest separately in the side that you think can win, so as to get a good return.

The appearance of a group of knights quieted the conversation, and from a distance, there should be more than two hundred knights in that group, wearing gorgeous uniforms and a beautiful cloak behind them. From the knight's attire, anyone can see an exotic style, which is different from the Greek and Persian dress styles.

"We have not been notified that there will be cavalry from the Han Empire in the city of Kangju Kingdom!"

"Could it be that the Han Empire is ready to tear up the contract???

In contrast to the noisy Parthians, Bactrians, and Kangjus, including the Kiruslivi. Luce. Scipio. The Romans, including Calvers, narrowed their eyes at the group of knights who were still advancing...... The legendary knight of the Han Empire in the East.

Oh, by the way, it is said to be the "Han Empire", that is the name of the empire by foreigners, in fact, the people of the empire do not call themselves so. The reason why foreigners call the empire "Han Empire" is that Lü Zhe was the king of Han before he established the empire.

Central Asia and Europe, they have their own views on the continuation of power, usually a dynasty replaces a dynasty, the ruler of the country will change again and again, but the name of the country can be continued, at most it is the XX dynasty of the XX country, without changing the name of the country.

Parthia and Bactria knew that the predecessor of the empire was the Qin Empire, and according to custom, they should actually call the current empire the Lü dynasty of the Qin Empire, but it was corrected only at a slight mention, because the Qin Empire still had descendants, and finally it was called the Han Empire.

Miratis waited for someone to inquire and confirmed before he said, "Those are the knights of the Qin Kingdom, not the Han Empire. ”

Ki Bru Wei. Luce. Scipio. Calvers, not understanding the situation in the East, asked: "What do you mean?" ”

Mirats is confused too! He said: "The emperor of the Han Empire replaced the rule of the Qin Empire, but the emperor did not exterminate the descendants of the Qin Empire, but allowed the descendants of the Qin Empire to become a prince under his rule, and then expelled the Prince of Qin and let him build a feudal state outside." ”

Ki Bru Wei. Luce. Scipio. Calvers' eyes lit up when he heard this, and he couldn't help but high-five, and shouted: "What a cleverness!" ”

……

Well, there is no power until two o'clock in the middle of the night, and it is too hot to sleep, and the call is coded (to be continued.) )
