On the day of the departure of the army, Yang Zheng saw him off as usual.

Wen Yang has aged a lot over the years, but his bearing is more calm, and his every move is more general-like.

The faces of the soldiers were not only not afraid, but rather joyful.

After several years of dismantling of the Chinese army, those who did not want to fight were basically retired, and those who remained were almost professional soldiers, who made a living by fighting.

It can be seen from their equipment.

In addition to the standard equipment provided by the imperial court, some people also created weapons suitable for themselves, maces, hammers, halberds and other weapons, and soldiers with good conditions also created long lances, from lances to poles are thrillingly built, not comparable to cheap goods in the army.

Some of the soldiers also had leather boots and leather jackets, and their armor was even better.

In the past, only the equipment used by generals in the army can now be obtained by ordinary soldiers after saving up for a few years.

The military appearance of the Western Expedition has not been seen in nearly ten years.

The army is small, but it is stronger.

The soldiers know how to invest for themselves, which means that they are more professional, and it also reduces the economic pressure on Daqin.

Most of the officers and men of the Chinese army were small landowners, and if they bought a few slaves and added a ploughing ox, they could let go of their hands and devote themselves to martial arts training and improve their military skills.

In particular, the sons of the Liangjia and the children of Qingying, who can be literate and martial, although there are many of them are the sons of the noble clan, but they are extremely loyal to the Great Qin, as in the Qin and Han dynasties, eager to make contributions on the battlefield, and are the precious wealth of the Great Qin Empire.

"Such a strong team, invincible in the world!" Wen Yang raised his head and said to himself.

"Then I am waiting for General Hou's good news in Daxing!"

"The minister will live up to His Majesty!" Wen Yang waved his lance.

The army marched slowly, and countless horses moved their hooves to the west.

The soldiers turned back to Yang Zheng one after another, and Yang Zheng also waved to them.

The people of Daxing were even more excited than Yang Zheng, and they were cheering one by one, as if they had already won.

This made the soldiers' chests stand taller.

The envoys of various countries and the princes studying abroad were envious and frightened.

Sure enough, after returning to the city, the Sassanid envoy came again, and he was not as arrogant as last time, and they naturally received the news that Daqin had defeated Dawan and Kangju.

For such a strong team to go west, it is self-evident who the goal is.

"Your Majesty the Great Emperor, we Sassanids recognize Great Qin's rule over Kangju and Dawan!" The envoy has been staying in Daxing, touring around, and has long lost the self-confidence he had at the beginning.

"Return to the river, the two families are good." Yang Zheng said with a smile.

Although the river is far from the Central Plains, it is also far from the core area of the Sassanid Empire.

There was no threat around Great Qin, so Yang Zheng was able to concentrate his forces on fighting for the river, while there were many enemies around Sasan, and Rome was fighting inextricably.

"We Sassanids will never give up on the river!" The messenger said with strong emotion.

This kind of negotiation carries emotions, which already shows that they are at a disadvantage.

"Then why did Your Excellency take the initiative to come to my door to discuss with me? If you have the right to negotiate, we can negotiate further, and as long as you are willing to withdraw from the river, I, Daqin, can support you in dealing with Rome. ”

As soon as the word Rome was spoken, the envoy was stunned on the spot.

The war between the Sassanids and the Romans was not just a territorial dispute, there were sectarian conflicts between the two sides.

"Your Majesty......"

"If you don't want to talk, it's okay, we can take the initiative to find the Romans, and attack from both sides, and when the time comes, you will lose more than just the river!"

Cold sweat flowed down the messenger's face.

This envoy to Great Qin was originally just to observe Great Qin's national strength.

In fact, the Persians have always looked down on China, preferring to be close to the West, as has been the case since ancient times.

It was only when Great Qin's strength exceeded their expectations that he put away his arrogance.

"Your Majesty, can you give us some time, I need to go back and tell our sovereign!"

"When?" Yang Zheng smiled, "Then you'd better hurry up, Anxi Duhu can fully represent my will, and it's the same if you talk to them, we in China have always loved peace." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The messenger looked strange, saluted, and hurried away.

Yang Zheng didn't have much hope for him, and the matter between the two countries in the first few years had to be solved by a knife in the end.

But it's good to be able to intimidate them.

In the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, China's diplomatic warfare was playing, and sometimes the results of diplomacy were greater than those on the battlefield, and Yang Zheng naturally would not forget it.

Ten days later, another wave of envoys arrived in Daxing.

"I've been waiting for you for days!" Yang Zheng said with a smile.

The appearance of Great Qin to the west of the Green Ridge could not have attracted the attention of the Romans.

The Roman missions were much more formal than those of the Sassanids, with various gifts, and a few blonde and blue-eyed maids.

In return for the favor, Yang Zheng specially prepared a grand welcome ceremony for them.

"Your Majesty the Emperor, our Roman Empire is willing to form an alliance with the Great Qin Empire to destroy the evil Sassanids together!" The envoy introduced a long list of his names, but Yang Zheng didn't bother to remember them, foreign names were more cumbersome, and various titles were added......

In the era of weapons, war is the fastest way to communicate civilizations.

"Forget about annihilation, we Daqin only want to recover the lost land."

Just kidding, a couple of blonde mothers-in-law want to buy themselves, how is it possible?

But then again, these women have bumpy figures, big where they should be, small places where they should be, and they are dressed passionately and hotly, full of exotic style.

As soon as Liu Heng saw them, he couldn't take his eyes off.

Sassanid is not a good thing, and Rome is not a fuel-efficient lamp.

If they beat them, Daqin just watched the excitement, and there was no need to get involved deeply.

Only by being left and right can you make a lot of money.

"It doesn't matter, as long as Great Qin sends troops, we will launch a counteroffensive at the same time in the Mediterranean, we Rome and Great Qin have many common enemies, including the barbarians on the grassland!" The envoy said with great respect.

"Daqin wants to attack Hezhong, as for whether you fight Sasanian or not, that's your business, as for cooperation, we can talk about it after this battle, and I also welcome you to go to Hezhong to observe this big battle."

The Three Kingdoms are the most stable.

Whether Sassanid eats Rome or Rome eats Sasani, it is not a good thing for Daqin.

Using the river as a window to look at other civilizations is Yang Zheng's ultimate goal.

The envoy's eyes rolled, and he was a little puzzled by Yang Zheng's attitude, but he was still quite polite, "As you wish, Your Majesty the Emperor." ”

In fact, such a big battle was done for the Sassanids to put a little pressure on them.

Yang Zheng accepted the gift, and the women all returned it.

I'm this age, so it's better to take it easy.

Liu Heng kept humming and chirping, with a look of pity, and he didn't know why he had such a strong desire in this regard......

came and did not be rude, Yang Zheng also rewarded them with some gifts.
