Since Shapur II took power, he has always regarded the defeat and cede land against the Romans, and he has wanted to take revenge day and night.
However, Sassanthemum is still incompetent. Antioch and Armenia in the west were extremely strongly managed by the Romans. Without sufficient preparation, they would never dare to chew on it easily.
The Arab robbers in the southwest desert are a group of poor and smelly guys. Even if they defeat them a hundred times, they will not have much benefit to the national strength of the Sassanian Empire.
Therefore, Shapur II knew that in order to strengthen his national strength, he had to first erode the declining Kushan Empire eastward, conquer those city-states and tribes in the East, and use their wealth and soldiers to support Sassanthemums to seek revenge on the Romans.
The nomadic cavalry from the far east in the past two years have completely disrupted the Sassanian Persians' erosion business strategy.
It is rumored that those fierce nomadic cavalry were all the troops of the Eastern Han Empire. After defeating Kangju, Su Yi and Dayuan, they also annexed the Northern Kushan divisions at a rapid speed.
This made Shapur II absolutely unbearable. If it were not for the benefits of the old Kushan lands in the East, how could the Sassanian Empire be able to reserve national strength as soon as possible to seek revenge from the Romans?
"My son, people have told me that the Han Empire in the East has revived again, as if it was favored by the gods. It destroyed its country twice, but restored its country twice. The best way for such a powerful country favored by the gods is to be friends and partners with him, rather than become enemies with them."
Shapur II's mother, Queen Mother Sassanthes, held a snow-white palace cat in her hand, and gracefully stroked the cat owner while admonishing her with great thought.
Unlike Shapur II, who was determined to expand his territory, although Queen Mother Sassanthes was only in her thirties, she had been involved in the imperial government for more than ten years. She knew that what the Sassanthesanthesian Empire needed most was stable development, and quietly waited for the Romans to reveal their flaws, rather than creating a new enemy in the East.
"Mother, what you said is just rumors of some lies. No one in the world except us, the most devout believers of the God of Light, can get the favor of the gods!"
Shapur II's young and handsome face showed disdain.
He knew that his mother opposed all wars, and the previous monarchs of the Sassanian Empire suffered various tragedies due to various military defeats.
But Shapur II felt that he was different. He was born to be a revival of Sassanthemum.
It is the favored man of the God of Light who is destined to defeat the Romans and wash away the shame of his ancestors.
Queen Mother Sassanthes was worried about the safety of her son and the empire and did not want to agree to the way to start a war.
However, now there are no assistant ministers in the empire, and there are no supporters of Queen Mother Sassanthes. For Shapur II, who is determined to make a difference, it is nothing different from the infatuation in his ears.
After the mother and son did not reach an agreement, Shapur II directly ordered the mobilization of troops and prepared to go to war with the Han Empire in the east.
Although he had experienced cedes of land to the Romans, the territory of the Sassanian Persian Empire was still very large.
After nearly half a month, the lords led their troops to various places were gradually coming.
"I will lead you to conquer the Eastern people who robbed the vassals of the Empire. No matter who they are, as long as they can defeat them, I will not want any of them, such as silk, gold, silver, porcelain, etc., and I will reward them all to the winners."
