The Roman cavalry behind had just had time to turn around, Xu Chu had already led the Huwei light cavalry to kill, and under the siege, only a few hundred Roman cavalry broke through a gap and retreated towards the way they came. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Zhao Yun, the commander of the Eagle Xiang Army, who was sweeping in the rear, saw it, and led the army to pursue all the way according to the plan, and chased it to the vicinity of a camp in the rear of the enemy.

After this large-scale battle, Yuan Yao ordered the armies of all walks of life to press forward step by step, ranging from several miles or dozens of miles a day, and after nearly a month, nearly 300,000 Roman troops finally forced into the last stronghold, the capital of the Roman Empire, Rome.

The main camp of the army of the Dazhong Empire

Yuan Yao summoned all the lords to discuss.

Vesudeva's 200,000-strong army suffered huge losses in this month's battle, with more than 100,000 battle losses, and hated the Romans like bones, "Your Majesty! If you use a thunderbolt, bomb the city! The Romans will not be able to stop it! ”

The generals also fought hard for more than a month, and they all agreed with Vesudeva's suggestion, and Du Guojia stood up and said, "Your Majesty, the minister thinks this move is inappropriate!" Rome represents the highest civilization in the West, and if we use a thunderbolt, we will surely disappear a lot of precious civilizations! A large number of Romans who mastered Western civilization died unexpectedly, which was not conducive to the future development of science and technology in the Dazhong Empire, and the gunpowder bullets left in our army were not enough to kill 300,000 Roman troops, and in the end it was still necessary to attack the fortified position!! Your Majesty, please think again! ”

Yuan Yao nodded, weighed it, and said: "What Feng Xiao said is reasonable, after all, we are seeking development, not sabotage, if our army is at a disadvantage, it is reasonable to use thunderbolts, but now that our army is victorious, there is no need for this!" ”

Sun Ce said: "Your Majesty, the city of Rome and the people in the city of Rome, although it is now the Roman Empire, but in the future it will be the Dazhong Empire, if the damage is too great, the future maintenance will also cost a lot!" ”

The crowd pondered for a while.

"Your Majesty, the minister has a plan!" Chang Xuan's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said loudly: "Although Rome is high and deep, but 300,000 soldiers have poured in at once, plus the original people, the food will not last!" Our army can firmly defend the four gates, dig up the river, cut off the water source in the city, and within a month, the enemy in the city will either come out on their own and die, or die of thirst and starvation in the city!! ”

Everyone took a breath of cold air, if they followed the plan of Chang Xuan, they would definitely be able to easily defeat the enemy, but at that time, the tragic situation in the city was afraid that it would be unbearable to witness.

Yuan Yao said: "General Changxuan, your plan is good!" It is indeed possible to conquer the city of Rome at the lowest cost!! ”

Chang Xuan was overjoyed, but after Yuan Yao praised him, he immediately changed his words and said: "But I think this move is too cruel, according to the Roman emperor's attitude of favoring soldiers and not the people, I think that the weakest women and children must die first, followed by the universal people, and finally the Roman army!" And women and children are what I want to stay behind! ”

"Oh! I forgot about that!! Chang Feng patted his head, smiled awkwardly, and sat back.

"Your Majesty, the minister has a plan, which can not only break Rome, but also preserve Rome's technology to the greatest extent!" Guo Jia looked confident and bowed his hand.

"What's the trick of Bonghyo?" Yuan Yao smiled.

"Since there will be a large number of casualties if we forcibly attack the city, it is better for us to concentrate all the gunpowder shells, blast open a gate and a broken city wall, and use the heavy infantry to defend against the enemy's long-range attacks. Guo Jiadao.

"Good!!" Yuan Yao nodded, shouted hello, glanced at the generals with a smile, and said, "What do the generals think of Guo Junshi's plan?" ”

"I agree!!" Sun Ce immediately hugged his fists.

"The ministers also agree with Guo Junshi's clever plan!!" The rest of the generals all hugged their fists.

In the winter of the second year of China, on the first day of October, Yuan Yaoqin led the army of the Dazhong Empire to finally conquer the center of the West, known as the most solid capital of the Roman Empire in the world, Rome City!!

Killing the Roman Emperor Severus and the Sabbatarian Emperor Vologasis V in the market, the Pope led tens of thousands of papal knights to refuse to surrender, and finally died in the attack of the rebel army and the rebellion of the people.

On the day of the destruction of the city, the Roman people, especially the slaves who had been at the bottom of Rome, cheered loudly, frantically smashing the Holy See and retaliating against the slave owners who had forced them, for all this, Yuan Yao ordered the army not to stop, he didn't want to leave these deep-rooted forces in the city of Rome, and let the people spontaneously resist, that is the best thing!

Those who treated the people and slaves well were naturally protected from attack.

The next day, Yuan Yao, who controlled the entire city of Rome, stood at the top of the Roman palace and announced to all the Romans that the Roman Empire had fallen, and all the people of the Roman Empire had been subsumed into the Dazhong Empire, and all the nobles and slaves would become equal commoners with all the rights of the Dazhong Empire.

Amnesty for the world, even if you are a prisoner on death row, you can join the army and wash away your sins with your military exploits!

For the identity of civilians, Yuan Yao also has mandatory regulations! All civilians are only allowed to have one wife and concubine, one hectare of land, one house!

Commoners who do not have land and wives and concubines can get a land house and have a wife, which is completely free!

Those who were once nobles and wealthy will have more wives and concubines, land, and residences will all be confiscated, but these nobles can improve their status by donating money, land, and residences, and the more they donate, the higher the title they get, and the more wealth they can keep.

Yuan Yao's move was supported by the vast majority of Romans, and these people all knelt down and cheered, Long live the Dazhong Empire!

And the nobles who wanted to resist, Yuan Yao used iron-blooded means to exterminate his entire clan, leaving no men, women, and children!

This is Yuan Yao's principle, if you want to kill one, you will destroy his whole clan, cut the grass and eradicate the roots, or if you don't kill it, you will treat his people preferentially, as long as you can be obedient, Yuan Yao is also a human being, and he will not do too much!

The conquest of Rome only represents the end of the Roman Empire, and there are still large tracts of land to the west of Rome that are still in the hands of some nobles and lords. What Yuan Yao did in the city of Rome was to set the principles for the future!

Three days after Daqing, Guo Jia said: "Your Majesty, although the world is not fully occupied, it has been basically decided, and the rest of the places can be unified one after another, please Your Majesty delineate the pattern of the whole world as soon as possible, and clearly determine the specific power of the throne and the state pastor!" ”

Yuan Yao said: "Feng Xiao! Didn't you say that there is no suspicion in employing people, but not in suspicion? These generals are all loyal to me, and they can better manage the states on my behalf! ”

"Your Majesty's words are not bad, but the heart of guarding against people is indispensable!" Guo Jia persuaded.

Yuan Yao hesitated for a moment, not knowing how to explain, it is almost impossible to ensure that a dynasty will not decay from generation to generation, this is the law of history. (To be continued.) )
