I never thought of it.

The army of the Great Qin Empire had already reached the vicinity of Rome, and it was only a few hundred miles away from them!

Hundreds of miles away!

At the thought of this, the Roman consul at this time felt an abnormal headache.

The reason is very simple, the distance of hundreds of miles is not far at all, such a close distance, it can be said that for the well-trained elite divisions, it is only a few days away.

That is to say, in less than a few days, a powerful army from the Great Qin Empire will reach Rome. ，

Come to think of it.

At this time, the face of the Roman consul was suddenly filled with solemnity, and he only saw his solemn face, and opened his mouth to the subordinates on the side.

"Go and gather all the generals at once, and I'm going to discuss things with them!"

After the voice of the Roman consul fell for a while, the subordinates on the side did not dare to slack off in the slightest, the reason was very simple, he knew what Rome was facing at the moment, and at the moment an unprecedented army had reached the border of the Roman Empire.

In such a situation, it is necessary to make a decision in a timely manner.

It is necessary to make some deployments immediately, and then engage this army from the Qin State, otherwise every minute of delay may produce other variables.

In such a situation, it is highly likely that Rome will be found.

There is a crisis of one kind or another.

At this time, after the consul's order was heard, it did not take long for one general after another to come, and they immediately saluted the consul.

Then he asked with a solemn look on his face.

"What the hell is going on?"

"Far east, a country has launched an attack on our Rome, and they have sent an army of 50,000 men, only five hundred miles away from us!"

"What country can send so many troops?"

For a moment, everyone next to them inevitably frowned and looked at the consul on the side.

Well, everyone is wondering about one thing, wondering which country sent such a large army against them Rome.

You must know that in this world, even Rome is not so easy to drop an army of 50,000 people.

Fifty thousand troops.

This is not a small number, in this classical era, in this era of backward productive forces, such an army of 50,000 people was mobilized.

This is not possible for the vast majority of countries.

And a country that can send such a large army on an expedition is even more remarkable.

So for a while, everyone was puzzled, where the source of this army was, and what country sent this army.

Looking at the doubts of everyone present.

There is no consul on the side, what is the sale.

He looked solemn to everyone present.

The origin of this army was explained, and he was heard open to speak.

"Look at yourself!"

"On your own?"

For a moment everyone inevitably looked puzzled, and they looked at their bodies, all of them wearing robes from the classical era.

And the material used for the production of this robe is not a special material, but silk.

Silk from the distant Great Qin Empire.

The price of this silk in Rome was extremely expensive, and only the high-ranking people who could be present here could afford to wear it.

So after hearing the voice of the Archon at this time, everyone inevitably saw their clothes, but no one could have imagined that the Archon was referring to the material of the clothes.

They looked at the archon in confusion, then asked.

"What do you mean by that? Does the clothes we wear have anything to do with what we are going to discuss today? Please make me clear, Archon! ”

For a while, the voices of everyone next to him came to my ears.

The archon smiled, then showed a wry smile.

A bitter expression flashed across his face, and he explained to everyone present.

"The answer is very simple, that is, the army that came this time is the material of the clothes you are wearing, and it is the source of this silk that you regard as a treasure, the production area of that silk, the Great Qin Empire!"

"What??"

For a moment, the moment the archon's voice fell, everyone present inevitably made a shocking sound.

Well, they were all shocked by this incident, not that the Great Qin Empire invaded, they had anything surprising.

It's because.

This incident was mainly unexpected by everyone present.

Well, in Rome's imagination, they could be invaded by any enemy, but they never imagined that they would be invaded by the distant Eastern Empire.

Because the distance between the two sides was so long, and it was not convenient to communicate with each other at such a distance in the middle of the slow desert, the silk merchants had to use difficult means to transport the silk to them.

In such a situation.

The Great Qin Empire was able to send them out, with an army of 50,000 people, and then expedition to Rome.

What a national strength this is, how powerful it is.

For a while, everyone present couldn't help but show a shocked expression.

There are even people who show confusion.

I saw a general who couldn't help frowning and opened his mouth to say.

"As far as I know, as far as I know from the mouths of those merchants, this Great Qin Empire is unusually rich and powerful, they have a vast territory, even if the population increases several times, the territory is still enough, they have a huge amount of wealth, they have luxury goods that people love, such as silk, such as porcelain, such as glass and perfume, all these are things that we do not have......"

"Why would such a rich empire attack such a poor Rome as ours? Why are they? Why? ”

Time.

The moment the man's voice fell.

Everyone present couldn't help but frown.

While frowning.

The consul couldn't help but fall into deep thought, for the simple reason that he could.

At the moment, they couldn't figure out the reason for this, after all, as the general said just now, Rome was too much inferior to the Great Qin Empire.

So it's not as good as that.

He is so backward, so poor, and this Great Qin Empire is so rich.

Why are they attacking themselves?

I hadn't offended them before.

And sent such a large army to conquer Rome, which was so far away.

I'm afraid that if the Great Qin Empire sends troops, it will conquer the whole of Rome, and the wealth it will gain will be much more, right?
