Chapter 1319: The Two Countries Surrender (2)

Thank you for a monthly pass that you want to disfigure your son!

The impasse in the negotiations was broken by a compromise on the part of the Romans, and an agreement was signed whereby the Wei returned the province of Osroina, including Kari, to the Romans, at the cost of five million taels of silver, and the important fact that both the Romans and the Wei Empire promised not to intervene directly in the affairs of Jerusalem.

A few days later, the handover was completed, and the Wei army retreated to Assyria.

The situation in the West was that the Wei army controlled almost all of Assyria, but the Romans still controlled Artashat, a key point south from the Caucasus Mountains, and the Wei army and the Romans confronted Artashat on the eastern border of the province of Osroyna.

As the situation on the border eased, Caracalla ordered the reserves to return to their respective positions, while a part of the regular corps was transferred to the headquarters of the empire and to the west.

Caracalla's eyes turned to the north of the empire, where the army of Arayan, the governor of England, was wreaking havoc in several coastal provinces.

Caracalla ordered the general Khedira to launch a counterattack against Alayan.

Half a month later, the Empire's 300,000-strong army fought a fierce battle with the 100,000 rebels under the command of Alayang in the Ergrin Mountains in the next Germanic province. Alayang, who had not received any information beforehand, was caught off guard and was quickly defeated.

The rout retreated to the coast and was overtaken by the Roman cavalry brigade. A fierce battle broke out between the two sides on the seashore.

30,000 Roman cavalry were repulsed.

The war later became an epic chapter for the English.

Khedira led the main army to chase to the seashore, by which time all the rebels had boarded and left.

The rebellion that ravaged the northern coastal provinces was put down, but the northern provinces suffered a serious blow.

The borders of the parties have calmed down, but the main forces of the parties remain near the border, and everyone is full of doubts and suspicions.

Green Ridge Fortress.

"I didn't expect this big war to end like this!" Cao Cao said with some emotion, looking at the sand table in front of him, the banner representing the army of the Shanda Empire on the sand table was still gathered near the border, and the war clouds did not seem to abate.

Xun You looked at the sand table and frowned slightly: "Your Majesty, it is very likely that the big war will break out again because of a certain sudden incident!" ”

Cao Cao nodded, "Yes! ”

Pointing to the form on the sand table, he sneered: "Our three empires don't trust each other at all, you guard against me and I let you go!" That's not a good thing! ”

"Your Majesty, Wei Chen thinks he should find a way to change this situation! Otherwise, the burden of the empire will remain heavy! ”

Cao Cao nodded, returned to the top and sat down, thought for a moment, and asked, "Does Gongda have any ideas?" ”

Xun You said: "Negotiate with the Romans and the Jin people again, so that the main forces of all parties will retreat a hundred miles!" to avoid uncertain conflicts! ”

Cao Cao thought and nodded, "Yes!" Gongda, it's up to you to do this! ”

"Yes!" Xun Yu hugged his fists and promised.

At this time, Dian Wei rushed into the hall.

"Evil, what are you doing in such a hurry?" Cao Cao asked with a smile.

Dian Wei replied: "Your Majesty, the Count of Jerusalem has come to meet you!" ”

"Oh? Here she comes! It's pretty fast! Let her in! ”

"Yes!"

"Gongda, what do you think of this beautiful Earl?"

Xun You smiled: "Although Alex has occupied most of Jerusalem and has the support of the local people, she is still very weak in front of the Roman Empire, and without our strong support, she will not be able to hold out at all!" ”

Cao Cao nodded, "But we have reached an agreement with the Romans not to directly interfere in the Jerusalem area!" I don't think the Romans will interfere directly either! Therefore, it is inconvenient and unnecessary for us to enter the Jerusalem area directly! ”

"Your Majesty is wise!"

A moment later, Alex followed Dianwei into the hall.

Alex was dressed in tight leather armor, very sexy, her blonde hair tied into a ponytail tied behind her head, and the whole person exuded a heroic spirit.

"The Count of Jerusalem greets His Majesty the Emperor!" Alex saluted respectfully.

Cao Cao smiled slightly, "No need to be polite!" ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Alex stood up.

"Lord Earl, it's been a hard journey!"

"Thank you Your Majesty for your concern! Your Majesty, you are here for Jerusalem! ”

Cao Cao nodded and asked, "Presumably you already know the agreement I made with the Romans, right?" ”

Alex clenched her fists and replied, "Yes! Thank you, Your Majesty! ”

Cao Cao couldn't help but look approvingly, and smiled: "You don't need Xie Zhen!" The Romans promised not to intervene directly, but they would have intervened in other ways! According to our intelligence, the royal family of Jerusalem is in the city of Rome, and it is very likely that the Romans will support them to fight you for control of Jerusalem! And it is impossible for my Great Wei Empire to directly intervene, and it is only possible to support to a certain extent! Do you understand? ”

Alex nodded, "Chan has already thought of this!" The current situation is much better than Alex had expected! ”

Cao Cao smiled and nodded, glanced at Alex, who seemed to be humble but was actually extremely proud and strong, and said approvingly: "You are very good!" Your talent and courage are actually no worse than Caracalla! If you can grasp the opportunity, you will definitely be able to achieve something immortal! ”

Alex couldn't help but feel excited, "Thank you, Your Majesty! ”

Cao Cao smiled and said, "Gan Ning and Zhou Tai's troops will be withdrawn soon, leaving only the instructor team!" The Empire will support you with supplies and equipment! This support is not unlimited, though! ”

Alex bowed heartily: "Thank you, Your Majesty! Alex understands! ”

Cao Cao smiled and nodded, "It's not easy for you to come here, stay here for two days, and I can talk to you about the details of Jerusalem!" ”

"Yes!" Alex respectfully agreed.

That night, Cao Cao returned to the backyard after handling official business.

Looking at the empty room, my heart was also empty, and I couldn't help but think of my wife and children who were far away in Chang'an.

Cao Cao sighed.

After dinner, Cao Cao, who was very bored, left the Zhizhi Office accompanied by Dian Wei and more than a dozen other Imperial Forest Soldiers and came to the street of the Green Ridge Fortress.

Although this Green Ridge Fortress is a military fortress, the Green Ridge Fortress is still very lively at night, with small vendors selling on both sides of the street, and there are many pedestrians on the street, most of these people are the family members of the fortress generals.

The night of this Green Ridge Fortress is not much different from the Central Plains City, but it is a little deserted.

Cao Cao glanced around and said with a smile: "It's not bad here!" Although it is not as prosperous as the Central Plains, it is also very peaceful! ”

"Your Majesty, the Green Ridge City next to it is very different from this! It was already midnight when I passed by there on my errand last night, but the whole Green Ridge City was like daylight, and the city was full of people, and it was very lively! A Royal Guards officer said.

"Oh? Then I have to check it out! Cao Cao said with intent on the ground.

At this time, a familiar figure appeared in front of him, it was Alex, who had met Cao Cao during the day.

Alex is still wearing that tight leather armor, Alex is very beautiful in the moonlight, and she reveals an innocence in her charm.

She was followed by two people, her personal bodyguards.

When Alex saw Cao Cao, she couldn't help but be stunned, and hurriedly greeted him and saluted: "Alex has seen Your Majesty!" ”

The surrounding pedestrians immediately noticed Cao Cao, showed a look of surprise, and bowed to Cao Cao one after another, and for a while, the voices of long live came and went.

Cao Cao smiled bitterly: "It's okay now!" It seems that I can only go back! ”

Alex felt that she had caused trouble to Cao Cao, and said apologetically: "Your Majesty, I"

Cao Cao waved his hand, "It's not your fault!" ”

Cao Cao and his party finally got out.

Cao Cao let out a sigh, "It's finally out!" "A look of rejoicing.

Alex couldn't help but feel a little amused when she saw Cao Cao like this, and at the same time felt very funny.

"Your Majesty, let's go back!" Dian Wei Dao.

Cao Cao glanced at the Chaozhi Office and shook his head, "There's nothing to do when you go back!" Well, let's take a look around Green Ridge City! ”

Turning his head, he asked Alex, "Lord Earl, are you going too?" There was a hint of ridicule in his tone.

Alex nodded vigorously, "I heard that Green Ridge City is very prosperous, and I want to take a look!" ”

"Alright, let's go together!"

Cao Cao and his party came out of the fortress of Green Ridge, and at the same time, the city defense army, which received a notice from the Imperial Forest Army, sent an army of 3,000 people to escort them.

Cao Cao and his entourage came to the outside of Green Ridge City. Alex looked at the city in front of her and said in surprise, "There are no walls here?!" ”

Unlike most cities in this era, there is no city wall as the main means of defense, which is definitely an exception in this era.

The scale of the city is very large, equivalent to the capital city of the Central Plains, and the city was just a wasteland a few years ago, there are not many permanent residents in the city, most of them are businessmen from the north and south, the city is very prosperous because it is located at the most critical node of the Silk Road, you can buy almost anything in this world here, as long as it exists.

Alex couldn't wait to enter the green ridge city, the first thing that caught her eye was the two neat rows of inns on both sides of the street, all the inns were not small, the lobby of each inn was brightly lit, the guests who had not rested in the lobby were drinking and chatting, the streets were full of pedestrians, all kinds of people, etc., dressed differently.

Alex couldn't help but be amazed.

"It's so lively here!" Alex sighed.

Cao Cao walked up to Alex and smiled, "This is the most important transit point on the Silk Road, of course prosperous!" ”

He pointed to an entertainer who was playing with fire not far away, and said with a smile: "That's your traditional performance in Jerusalem!" ”

Alex looked in the direction of Cao Cao's finger, couldn't help but feel a sense of kindness, nodded vigorously, and ran up.

Cao Cao smiled and followed. (To be continued.) )
