Thomas analyzed: "According to the current situation, our army is not yet able to take action against the three northern islands!" Therefore, the Scots can only be supported with supplies! At the same time, officers were sent to help the Scots train the army! Plus, help the Scots build some of the necessary armories so they can supply their own army nearby! ”
"Hmm!" Caracalla nodded. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The city of Susa in the Great Wei Empire.
The city of Susa, close to the Persian Gulf and at the frontier of the border with the Romans, was strategically important and rich in produce. The city of Susa has a population of more than 100,000 people, and the surrounding villages and towns are also very populous, the vast majority of whom are Assyrians.
A huge fleet entered the port of Susa, this huge fleet is the Great Wei Empire naval force from the coast of the Indian Ocean, the leading generals are Gan Ning and Zhou Tai, the two were originally in the southern wilderness to fight with Shiwei, but more than two months ago they were transferred back to the fleet by a paper order, and soon after the two led the main force of the Great Wei Empire Navy towards Susa in the Persian Gulf, the entire fleet accounted for seventy percent of the Wei army's naval strength, including twenty-four third-class warships and thirteen second-class warships.
At present, the entire Wei navy has 32 third-class warships and 21 second-class warships, and it must be explained here that the third-class warships of the Wei army are different from the third-class warships built by the Wei Empire with the help of the English.
The third-class battleships of the Wei army are equipped with armor in important parts, and the various auxiliary devices are also extremely complex, in short, the cost of the third-class battleships of the Wei army is about three times that of the English, of course, this cost is worth it.
The sight of hundreds of warships in the harbor of Susa was so spectacular that the people of the country could not help but think that they had seen a miracle, and even worshiped the fleet in the harbor.
Zhou Tai and Gan Ning got off the boat, and when the two stepped on the solid ground, Gan Ning couldn't help but sigh: "After sitting on the boat for more than two months, it's really unbearable!" I'm just now realizing that it's still comfortable on the ground! ”
Zhou Taishen nodded approvingly, "Xingba, I think we'll have to stay here for a few years!" ”
Gan Ning said indifferently: "As long as there is a battle, it's okay!" Yay, you see, who's coming? ”
Zhou Tai looked in the direction of Gan Ning's finger, and saw that nearly a thousand cavalry were rushing towards this side, and the leader was white-robed and silver-armored.
"It's General Zilong!"
Gan Ning grinned and said, "Our face is really big!" Unexpectedly, the general of Zhengxi came to greet us in person! ”
Zhao Yun came to the two and jumped off the war horse, hugged his fists and said, "Xingba, Youping, you are finally here!" ”
Gan Ning and Zhou Tai returned the salute.
Zhao Yun ordered someone to bring two horses, and said: "Your horses have been on the sea for more than two months, and you can't carry people in a short time, so you can use these two horses for the time being, and you will just do it!" ”
Gan Ning hugged his fists and said, "Thank you Zilong for your kindness!" But I don't want to ride a horse! Grandma's! After more than two months at sea, I don't want to be too! ”
Zhou Tai on the side nodded thoughtfully.
Zhao Yun smiled, "In that case, then let's go for a while!" ”
Zhou Tai and Gan Ning nodded, and Gan Ning smiled: "It's exactly what I want!" ”
The trio walked together towards the city of Susa to the north.
It should be noted here that the city of Susa is still tens of miles away from the Persian Gulf, but the Babylon River that flows through the city of Susa connects Susa to the Persian Gulf, and the port of Susa is located next to a valley a few miles south of the city, and the waters here are very open, similar to the scene of the lower reaches of the Yangtze River.
Ganning glanced at the natives in the fields by the Babylon River, and the other man also looked at them in awe.
Gan Ning couldn't help but say: "Although the people here are ugly, they are not as primitive as Nanban!" At least there's decent clothing! ”
Zhao Yun couldn't help asking, "What is the situation in Nanban?" Is it really like the legend, clothed in leaves and bark, and drank blood? ”
Gan Ning nodded, "That's true!" And it's full of poisonous insects and beasts, it's not a place for people to stay! ”
Zhou Tai couldn't help but say: "I wonder why Your Majesty wants to seize such a place!" ”
Zhao Yun pondered: "Your Majesty must have your own plans!" Your Majesty will never do anything meaningless! ”
Gan Ning and Zhou Tai nodded. Zhou Taidao: "Anyway, I have already written to Your Majesty!" As for how to decide, then it's not my business! ”
About half an hour later, the group walked outside the city of Susa.
Gan Ning and Zhou Tai looked at the majestic city in front of them and couldn't help but show a look of surprise. Gan Ning said in disbelief: "I can't imagine that this Western barbarian can still build such a city?!" ”
Zhao Yun said: "Actually, there is nothing strange about this! We can, and so can others! It is said that the capital of the Roman Empire, the city of Rome, is not inferior to our imperial capital Chang'an in any respect! And it's even better at stone building! ”
Zhou Tai sighed: "No wonder you fight so hard with these barbarians!" It seems that it is not without reason! ”
Zhao Yun nodded.
A moment later, the three of them arrived at the place of governance, escorted by their own soldiers.
Sitting down, Zhao Yun said, "Your Majesty sent an order a few days ago, asking me to fully cooperate with you in building a naval base!" I'm not good at the navy, Xingba, Youping, whatever you need, just ask! ”
Gan Ning and Zhou Tai glanced at each other, and Gan Ning said: "First of all, we need a naval village!" My men can do it, but they have only been adrift at sea for more than two months, and they need to rest! ”
Zhao Yun nodded, "Leave it to me!" I sent someone to send local people to build a water village! By the way, you'll have to give me a copy of the water village! Otherwise, I may be able to build a Lu village for you! ”
Gan Ning and Zhou Tai smiled, and Zhou Tai said, "I'll do it!" Within half a day, the pattern will be given to Zilong! ”
The three of them talked for a while, and Zhao Yun ordered someone to take Gan Ning and Zhou Tai to the backyard to rest.
Early the next morning, Zhou Tai handed over the pattern of the water village to Zhao Yun, and Zhao Yun called Zhao Tuo, the general, and ordered him to requisition the local people to build the water village.
Two days later, nearly 10,000 people, under the guidance of the Wei army, began to build a water village in a natural harbor near the mouth of the Babylon River.
It is U-shaped, surrounded by high mountains on three sides, the bay is calm as a mirror, the water depth is several meters, there are no reefs, and it is an excellent place to moor large warships such as second-class warships; The two high mountains on either side are much higher than the surrounding area, and if you build a fort on them, you can greatly suppress attacks from the sea and land.
While the construction of the water village on this side of the Persian Gulf is in full swing, all kinds of materials are being transported from the Central Plains to the western and northern fronts, and although the war has come to an end for the time being, the atmosphere is still very tense.
The armies on the Western and Northern Fronts in the Western Regions cultivated fertile land in between trainings. Hundreds of thousands of migrants are moving into their new homes. These immigrants came from the Central Plains, all Han Chinese, and they would be the cornerstone of the Great Wei Empire's stability in the Western Regions.

The capital of the Jin Emperor went to Beijing.
The largest city in the northern part of the land seems to have regained the bustling scene it had been a few years ago, with Jin and Roman merchants coming and going, and the produce of both countries being traded in the largest market in Shangjing.
Despite this, Jin Guo still exudes a feeling of exhaustion.
Successive civil strife and successive defeats in foreign wars have made this once extremely powerful empire a little dull.
"Queen, how can this be done? If that were the case, wouldn't all the peoples dependent on us have to make the same demand? Janissary General Delov said with an excited expression.
At this time, he was in the main hall of the Jin Kingdom Palace, Queen Silan was sitting on the throne, and all the civil and military you were still under the steps.
Queen Silan frowned and looked at Prime Minister Schroeder on the side.
Schroeder explained to Delov: "General, the northern tribes have made a great contribution in this war with the Wei people, and we must reward them accordingly!" Otherwise, who will serve our golden country in the future? ”
"However, isn't it a mess to give him the title of imperial noble?!"
Most of the ministers chimed in.
Queen Silan couldn't help but feel angry in her heart, she didn't understand, why were the nobles of the empire still so obsessed with identity in this situation?
"General, everyone, we are in a very bad situation now! If you don't even have this mind! Not to mention the restoration of the former majesty of the empire, it is unknown whether it can protect itself! At present, the tribal population of our empire is nearly half of the total population of the empire, and if we can't get their support, this constant civil strife will be enough for us! Queen Silan said in a deep voice.
The ministers fell silent.
"I approve of the Queen's policy!" The general shook out the line.
This Huang Xuan is one of the most prestigious generals in the Jin ****, and the other is Totobu Buhua, this Han man has won the respect of the entire Jin country after several wars.
Everyone couldn't help but look at Huang.
Huang continued to say: "At this point, we should learn from the Wei people! They are not stingy with the reward of titles for meritorious foreign soldiers, so the Western Regions Alliance, the Xianbei Legion, and the Hun Legion will work for them like that! It's like plowing the land, and you want the ox to work hard, but you don't want to give him grass, what will be the result? ”
"Not bad! Huang said it well! From today onwards, all tribal soldiers can receive the same treatment as the soldiers of the Jin Kingdom as long as they make meritorious contributions! "Emperor Silan is resolute.
The ministers were taken aback, and Delov said urgently: "Empress! (To be continued.) )
