About an hour later, the Roman troops on the shore began to board the ships, and two hours later, all the Roman troops boarded the transport ships, because they were worried that the Wei fleet and the army would take advantage of the opportunity to raid, so almost all the baggage supplies, including dozens of catapults and a large amount of oil and food, were left behind, and more than 1,000 seriously wounded did not have time to take them.

The Roman fleet left in a hurry.

Soon after, the Wei cavalry entered the area, and the relevant reports were sent to Gan Ning and Zhou Tai.

After reading the report, Gan Ning laughed and said, "This Roman is really polite!" Knowing that we were embarrassed to bother, so we left so many supplies! ”

Zhou Tai smiled and nodded.

Gan Ning called his general Sun Tao and ordered him to lead a 5,000-foot army to push a cart to the rocky beach to bring back all the materials abandoned by the Romans.

Zhou Tai stopped Sun Tao, who was about to leave, and asked Gan Ning: "Xingba, this report also says that there are thousands of wounded soldiers abandoned by the Romans on the rocky beach, what are you going to do with it?" ”

A hideous look flashed in Gan Ninghu's eyes.

Zhou Tai couldn't help but be shocked.

Gan Ning said viciously: "It's useless to keep these guys, and they waste food!" They should all be slaughtered! ”

When Zhou Tai heard this, he couldn't help but be startled.

The Wei military regulations clearly stated that no one (excluding Cao Cao, the emperor) could kill prisoners.

Gan Ning's expression immediately softened, "It's a pity that I can't do it!" It would be a coward's act to kill these wounded soldiers, who have completely lost their ability to resist! ”

Hearing this, Zhou Tai couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and said to Sun Tao, who was standing on the side at a loss: "Bring the medical officer and medicinal materials, and bring those wounded soldiers of the Romans over too!" ”

"Yes!" Sun Tao promised and withdrew from the big tent.

Zhou Tai teased: "Xingba, I didn't expect you to have the wind of benevolence and righteousness!" ”

"Shit! What a wind of benevolence! Lao Tzu just thinks that killing these people has no face! ”

Zhou Tai smiled and asked, "Aren't you afraid of violating military regulations?" ”

Gan Ning was stunned for a moment, and smacked his mouth, "This, well, there is still a little!" ”

Zhou Tai laughed.

Gan Ning said unconvinced: "You are less proud!" Do you dare to violate military regulations? ”

Zhou Tai smiled: "Of course I don't dare!" We are afraid that no one in the Great Wei Empire will dare! ”

"That's it! All right! Don't talk this! Inform Your Majesty of the situation here! ”

Zhou Tai nodded.

When the wounded Roman soldiers saw the Wei army coming, they couldn't help but despair, they thought that they would definitely be brutally killed by the Wei army! And no wonder! The strength of the Wei army is easy to give people such an impression!

However, the next situation was something that the wounded Roman soldiers never dreamed of, and the Wei army's medical officers actually treated and bandaged their wounds.

These wounded Roman soldiers couldn't help but feel mixed feelings.

Before nightfall, all wounded soldiers and supplies abandoned by the Romans were returned to the naval base.

A few days later, a report of the battle was sent to Cao Cao.

Cao Cao read the report and couldn't help but say regretfully: "Hey! If there is enough ammo, they will be finished! ”

After a moment's thought, "The Assyrian region is thousands of miles west of the Central Plains, and logistical supply is extremely difficult!" And the outpost is thousands of miles northwest of Assyria, hanging alone! If they can't solve the problem of logistics and supply, I'm afraid they won't last long! ”

At this time, Cao Cao was in the Qianqing Palace, and a group of cabinet ministers stood in the palace.

Jia Xu nodded and said, "Your Majesty is extremely worried!" If this is not solved, the outpost will be lost sooner or later! It's better to find a way to solve it on the spot! ”

Xi Zhicai frowned and said, "Solve it on the spot? Grain and grass are fine! But catapults and warships will not work! ”

Cao Cao nodded, "What Zhicai said is the crux of the problem!" Grain and grass can be collected from the local people, or you can reclaim it yourself! But ammunition, catapults, warships are simply not self-sufficient! ”

Xun Yu said: "For today's plan, we can only build relevant workshops in Assyria or the Western Regions to supply the Western battlefield nearby!" ”

The crowd nodded.

Cao Cao said: "It seems that this is the only way to do it!" ”

Looking up at Xi Zhicai, "Zhicai, immediately select a group of technicians from the Martial Arts Research Institute, foundries, mines, and iron yards!" ”

"Yes!"

"Where do you think these workshops are appropriate?" Cao Cao asked.

The crowd came to the sand table.

Jia Xu pointed to the Persian Gulf region and said, "Your Majesty, since Susa and its surrounding areas are currently firmly controlled by us, it is better to build the shipyard here!" ”

Cao Cao nodded, "This is a suitable place!" On land, our army is heavily defended, and the river is convenient for defending against threats on the water! OK! That's it! Send the selected ship mechanics here, and at the same time order Zilong to start building the shipyard immediately! ”

"Yes!"

Cao Cao looked at the map and thought: "There are abundant iron ore resources in the territory of Anxi, and the location here is not far from the Western Regions, and it is also close to the Assyrian region. But where should the oil plant be built? ”

Xi Zhicai hugged his fists and said: "Your Majesty, there is something I am about to report to you!" ”

Cao Cao nodded and guessed, "Is it related to fire oil?" ”

"Your Majesty is wise! The exploration technicians of the Ministry of Industry have found a large number of oil deposits at the junction of Anxi and Xikushan!! Xi Zhicai reported.

Cao Cao smiled, "It's okay now!" Everything is in order! Good! Tell Chung Tat to take charge of the construction of the ironworks, foundries, and oil factories in Dormition! In addition, I would like to tell Zhongda that these things are related to the battlefield superiority of our army, so they must be strictly protected! Don't let anyone take advantage of it! ”

"Yes!"

"Your Majesty, there is one more question! The Western Regions, Assyria and the Central Plains are thousands of miles apart, and if the technicians stay there for a long time, they are afraid! Xi Zhicai said.

Cao Cao nodded, "This is easy to do!" Just like the legions, they were divided into several batches and took turns to work on the west side, each working for a year! ”

By the way, the Wei Army's First to Eighth Army Corps, Xiongnu Legion, Xianbei Legion, Western Regions Legion, and Xuanjia Cavalry were divided into two batches to take turns to garrison at the border, in addition, nearly 300,000 garrisons in Qingzhou, Chang'an, Bingzhou, Jingzhou, and Yongzhou were also divided into two batches to take turns to garrison the border.

At present, in addition to the regular army of the empire and the garrisons of these five states, the army of the Wei army defending the border also has the servant armies of various subject countries, and the overall strength is very strong, but it is still very difficult to face Rus and Rome at the same time.

The Wei army's current strategic center of gravity was in the west, so more than ninety percent of the empire's military forces were deployed in the west, with only a few garrisons in the east and south.

This victory, thousands of miles away, was soon spread by the official throughout the country, and the vast majority of the people were excited and proud of it, but there were also some pretentious scholars who shook their heads and sighed: "Desperate soldiers!" Not the Prince of Righteousness! ”

Soon after, a group of scholars jointly sent a letter to the imperial court, stating the disadvantages and harms of the conquest, and asking the imperial court to change its course and follow the example of the sages and saints to rule the world with benevolence and righteousness.

At the same time, a fierce debate broke out between the expansion faction and the benevolence faction of the Yingbin Restaurant in Chang'an, which everyone is accustomed to, because this is not the first time that such a debate has occurred.

Cao Cao frowned while reading the folds, Cai Yan sat aside and gently shook the pu fan to Cao Cao, the naughty ghost Cao Le was directing Xiao Ash to ride the Wooden Horse not far away, and she could figure it out, Xiao Ash looked at the Trojan horse in front of him that could not be compared with his own size with a look of frustration.

Cai Yan glanced at the fold in Cao Cao's hand, and asked curiously, "Your Majesty, you have been watching this fold for two quarters of an hour!" What are you talking about? ”

Cao Cao smiled and said: "This is a joint letter from the cabinet!" ”

"Signing a joint letter?"

Cao Cao nodded and put the fold on the stone table, "Actually, it's a cliché!" It was some scholars, mainly the old Confucians, who wrote against the foreign policy that the empire was currently pursuing! ”

Cai Yan's hand to fan the fan paused, and said with a look of annoyance: "It's that set again!" These people are not tired! Your Majesty, you must punish them this time! ”

Cai Yan looked very annoyed and very cute.

Cao Cao couldn't help but hug Cai Yan into his arms and kissed the seductive red lips.

Cai Yan's face turned red, pushed Cao Cao, glanced at Cao Le, the baby daughter who was teasing Xiao Ash and didn't pay attention to this, and lowered her voice and said angrily: "Lele is here!" ”

Cao Cao nodded thoughtfully, "When Lele leaves, let's discuss life issues in depth!" ”

Cai Yanjiao's face turned even redder, and she punched Cao Cao in the chest with her fist, glaring angrily.

Cai Yan got up from Cao Cao's arms, "People are talking to you about business!" ”

Cao Cao smiled, "What I said is also the right thing!" ”

Seeing Cai Yan's embarrassed look, he hurriedly said, "Okay!" Let's get down to business! ”

Cai Yan wrinkled the good-looking Qiong's nose and raised his chin, looking cute as if he had won the battle.

Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, and muttered: "You must discuss life issues tonight!" Well, call the cicadas too! ”

"What did you say?" Cai Yan, who didn't hear clearly, asked curiously.

Cao Cao looked at Cai Yan and smiled weirdly.

Cai Yan frowned, and asked suspiciously, "Your Majesty, are you playing any ghost again?" ”

Cao Cao laughed and said, "I'll talk about it later!" ”

Cai Yan snorted and said very proudly: "Your Majesty, tell you!" No matter what you think, people won't give in! ”

Cao Cao squinted his eyes and smiled, "Really? ”

Cai Yan couldn't help but feel a wave of heart, and said with red cheeks: "Even if people's bodies succumb, their minds will not succumb!" "A stubborn look.

Cao Cao couldn't help but take Cai Yan into his arms, and said angrily in Cai Yan's ear: "What are you talking about?" It's as if His Majesty wants to abuse you! (To be continued.) )
