When Emperor Constantine received the news of the defeat in the Mediterranean naval battle, the whole person was stunned, although he was already mentally prepared for defeat in the face of the powerful Great Jin Navy, but when this incident really happened, he still felt unacceptable. The same news caused a huge shock in Rome and Persia.

Unexpectedly, the allied fleet, which seemed to be extremely powerful, would become so vulnerable after encountering the navy of the Great Jin Empire. All Romans knew that after losing their sea power, a large number of cities bordering the sea frontier would become the target of the Jin navy. This was a disaster for the Roman Empire, with its long coastline!

But the defeat in the Mediterranean did not break the confidence of the Romans to resist, but rather brought them closer together. Some of the Romans living by the sea were ready to evacuate to the central and northern regions, and Emperor Constantine was also ready to fight a long war, believing that with the remaining nearly one million troops, they could completely stop the Jin attack on land.

In the 19th year of Hongwu, on September 20, 10,000 marines suddenly landed successfully on the western coast of Syria under the cover of the fleet, and more than 10,000 marines rushed to the key points of the Roman Syrian province with lightning speed, and caught the local defenders off guard.

Syria, which was already panicked by the defeat in the naval battle, was in complete chaos, and within a few days, the coalition forces took control of the situation in Syria, and then swept westward across Jordan, Jerusalem and other places, and successfully joined the Arab army in the south. Meanwhile. The allied fleets attacked in all directions, shelling the Roman coastal cities one after another, inflicting heavy losses on the Romans.

Subsequently, a steady stream of reinforcements from Hawaii went to the Republic of Panama and then entered Latin America through the Panama Canal, aiming directly at the North American continent.

On October 2, the main force of the army, which had been stationed in the Hezhong area, immediately launched a combat operation codenamed 'Nuwa' after receiving information that the marines had landed in the Persian rear. In order to destroy Persia in World War I, the Privy Council mobilized a total of 25 armies to attack Persia. If you add 50,000 Persian vassals. The total strength of the coalition forces was as high as 300,000.

At the same time, on the southern front, 100,000 Arab troops, assisted by 20,000 expeditionary forces, began to attack Persia in the north. Facing on all sides. A huge military force that has been overwhelmingly overwhelming. The Persians forcibly conscripted an army of one million in an attempt to stop the Jin attack.

The Persian military clamored for the blood of the Jin people to be scattered throughout the Persian Gulf, and said that the Persians would never surrender to the Great Jin Empire, even if they fought to the last man.

For the clamor of the Persians. The Great Jin Dynasty will not be underestimated at all, although many times the Jin army often looks down on the combat effectiveness of the Persian soldiers, but the Persian army does have its own uniqueness. In particular, the Persian heavy cavalry once left a deep impact on the Jin army. Moreover, being able to fight against the Roman Empire for a hundred years without losing the upper hand shows that the Persians are still very strong in combat.

On top of that, the Persians are in danger of losing their country, and they will definitely be overperforming! People often burst into incredible potential in desperate situations! Therefore, before the war, the Privy Council repeatedly warned the front-line soldiers to be cautious and careful, to fight steadily and steadily, and not to be greedy for merit.

In order to destroy the will of the Persians to resist, the front-line army invested nearly 1,000 artillery pieces, most of which were produced by the river arsenal. The weapons and ammunition produced by the current Hezhong Arsenal can fully support at least 200,000 troops to fight, and if you add the ammunition hoarded in Hezhong before, Dajin does not worry about logistics and supply at all.

The roar of nearly a thousand cannons, the number and power of the artillery of the Xiang army were completely beyond the expectations of the Persians. It turned out that the Persians were ready to fight for every inch of land and die with the Jin people, but they found that they had to enjoy a fierce artillery baptism first. Faced with this situation, the Persian front-line troops were stunned at once, and many people became at a loss, and they did not know what to do.

It was at the beginning of the panic that the Xiang army quickly crossed the Amu Darya River and rushed to the Persian defense line, the most rapid movement of the dragoon troops, 10,000 dragoons drove the Persian army out of the Khorasan region in one go, and established a consolidated position there. The main force then followed and continued its offensive into the Persian hinterland, and within the next week, more than a third of the Persian soldiers were wiped out by the Jin army.

At the same time, the 50,000 Jin-Argentine troops, under the cover of the naval fleet, landed directly in southern Asia Minor on transport ships and after a short rest in Cyprus. At this point, the road communication between Persia and Rome was in danger of being cut off by the Xiang army, and Persia was facing the dilemma of being caught between the east and the west.

In addition, since October 2, the coastal areas of Rome have been frequently attacked by the Great Jin Navy, which dominates the world's oceans, and has firmly controlled the sea dominance. In a matter of days, the Romans had killed and wounded more than 100,000 people, and nearly a million had been displaced.

By 10 October, all units had achieved significant results on the ground, with 50,000 Allied troops and the Seventh Naval Detachment occupying the southern coast of Asia Minor and establishing beachheads; The main forces of the Eastern Front had taken control of most of Persia, including Khorasan, and allowed Hormizd III to establish a new rule in eastern Persia.

The reason why Hormizd III was pulled out was nothing more than to reduce the resistance of the Persians to the Jin, and sure enough, as soon as Hormizd III came out, most of the Persians chose to surrender without seeing any hope of victory. As a large number of Persian troops surrendered, Pessidore, who was far away in Ctesiphon, was completely panicked.

Psidore was well aware of Hormizd III's hatred for him, and the other party could forgive most people, but by no means him. In order to survive, he had to beg Da Jin to surrender in a low voice, and only Da Jin could save his life at the moment. While Pusedore was anxiously waiting for the Great Jin to respond, the Roman emperor in Constantinople issued a decree for a general mobilization.

On October 11, Constantine the Great called on all Romans to stand up and defend their homeland. Due to the prevalence of military power in Rome, many civilians began to use their weapons to exchange fire with the allied forces. Faced with this situation, the front-line troops had to start killing on a large scale.

The flames of war spread throughout Rome, and the Romans, unwilling to be defeated, had to fight until their blood was shed. Never before in history have the Romans been in a more dangerous situation than they are today, and it has always been their armed forces that have slaughtered other countries.

In the past, the Romans relied on their strong armed forces to destroy countless countries and nations, Egypt, Carthage, Macedonia and other powerful and rich countries fell under the iron heel of Rome, but when this day befell the Romans, many Rome he actually had a very ridiculous feeling.

The Privy Council of the Great Jin Dynasty really did not expect that the offensive of the front-line troops would go so smoothly, nearly a million Persian troops collapsed in artillery fire, and the seemingly powerful Persian Empire collapsed like this. Not to be outdone, the southern front troops not only defeated the Persian army in front of them, but also quickly advanced into southern Persia and approached the Persian imperial capital, Ctesiphon.

The unexpected changes in the battle situation on the southern front suddenly made both warring sides unexpected, and the Persians did not expect that the southern troops would be so vulnerable, and under the attack of the Jin-Arab coalition army, their own troops could only retreat step by step.

The success of the southern front also stimulated the troops in the other two directions, the east and west main forces had already occupied most of Persia, and when the eastern route army took Susa, the Jin army finally achieved the strategic encirclement of Ctesiphon.

At this point, everyone knows that the Persians will not be able to hold on for long, and even the Persians are divided internally, some of them advocate surrendering to Hormizd III, and some of them advocate continuing to resist, even if they are dead, they cannot give up until they force the Great Jin to retreat.

Persia is not good, the Romans can't hold out for long, in the recent period of time, the Jin navy has been constantly attacking all parts of Rome, resulting in heavy losses in the coastal cities of Rome, plus the main force of the Jin army is still gathering in Asia Minor, all of this tells the Romans: the Jin people are coming, Rome is about to end!

By this time, the Xiang army no longer took the Romans seriously, in fact, in the Mediterranean War, when the Romans lost their maritime supremacy, it meant that the initiative of the war was no longer in the hands of the other party.

In fact, it was true that the First World War in the Mediterranean basically consumed the elite navy of the Roman Empire. The rest were small boats that were simply not enough to protect the coasts of the Roman Empire. Although Emperor Constantine then hastily assembled a new part of the navy, their combat effectiveness was simply not comparable to that of the old troops. It was fanciful that the Romans were counting on them to hold the sea frontier. The Romans, so to speak, were really at their exhaustion.

As for the Great Jin Army, naturally it was not idle. While the navy was constantly raiding the ports of Rome, the 300,000-strong Jin-Arab army began to pour into Asia Minor. Faced with the strong front of the coalition forces, the Romans had no choice but to retreat again and again. It's not that they don't want to resist, it's that the artillery fire of the coalition forces is just too sharp.

The only people who caused trouble to the Jin army were probably fanatical Christians everywhere, and in the face of these unreasonable 'madmen', the coalition soldiers showed no mercy at all.

With the arrival of the marines, the fate of the Romans became tragic. With the heavy artillery support of naval warships, the marines landed in various parts of Rome one after another, and then they launched an attack on Rome, Constantinople and other important cities, and after three months of fighting, they finally succeeded in conquering Rome and Constantinople.
