Chapter 206 Heading to Rome(1/2)
Chapter 206 Going to Rome
[Crotis recruited 100,000 soldiers from all over the country and prepared to defeat the soldiers of the Great Qi!]
[You lead your troops all the way, and the soldiers of the Ptolemaic dynasty cannot stop you at all.]
On the battlefield, the armies of both sides confronted each other.
There were more than 60,000 people on the Ptolemaic army, while there were only 30,000 people on the Daqi side!
"Kill them!" The nobles of the Ptolemaic dynasty ordered the slaves to charge. Under the threat of death and braids, the slaves had to pick up their weapons and rush to the battlefield!
Their discipline is chaotic, like a group of wild animals rushing towards the crowd.
On the side of Daqi, the soldiers lined up, stood, defended, and attacked in an orderly manner.
Cleopatra saw that among the soldiers of Daqi, even if their comrades died in front of them, they would not stop. Instead, they immediately picked up their weapons and filled in the comrades' vacancy!
The battle formation they gathered can easily tear the enemy apart!
Their muskets had already wiped out more than 10,000 enemy troops before the two armies approached. And when the swords and weapons were connected, the soldiers of the Ptolemaic dynasty were even more vulnerable!
In just one hour, the soldiers of Daqi defeated them, and the nobles knelt on the ground and begged for mercy or fled in a panic!
"Is this a war? It's too fast, the balance of victory has never tilted from beginning to end!" Cleopatra looked at Zhang Beichen with surprise and said, "Your soldiers are stronger than the Roman corps.
!”
"Of course!" Zhang Beichen smiled, "Even if Caesar is here, he can't resist our attack!"
These people were carefully selected by him from the Million-sized army of Daqi!
Many of them are elite soldiers in a hundred battles, the Battle of the Seven Kingdoms, the Southern Barbarians in the south, the Xiongnu in the north, and the Kushan expedition!
There are also battles of all sizes in the voyage. It can be said that any of them jumped out to lead an army of ten thousand people!
【All the way to the Ptolemy City, your soldiers lost less than a hundred people.】
...
In the palace, Crotis questioned the nobles and generals: "Why, why did we lose so many people, but let them call us?"
"My king, they are demons from the East!" The generals were frightened, "Only the gods can resist them!"
"Hurry up, go and ask Caesar for help!" Crotis knew that he would definitely not be able to defend himself, so he could only seek the help of the Roman army.
Crotis's messenger came to Caesar's military account and explained everything to him.
Caesar already knew the information at this time. He led his troops to chase Pompei, and after killing Pompei, it was time to withdraw his troops.
But the incident of the Eastern man snatching Cleopatra made him angry.
"No one can offend me!"
"I conquer everything, no matter where he comes from!"
"Send the order to go on the expedition to Ptolemy and kill those Eastern people!" Caesar raised the knight's sword and ordered.
The Roman army immediately dispatched to rescue the Ptolemaic dynasty.
...
[You began to attack the Ptolemy royal city. After half a month, the soldiers of Daqi broke through the royal city.]
The soldiers rushed into the palace and surrounded Crotis.
"My dear brother, we're meeting again!" Cleopatra walked slowly.
Crotis said with a hatred, "Cleopatra, you betrayed Caesar! The Romans will not let you go and these Orientals!"
"It's a pity that you can't see it!" Cleopatra had no affection for this younger brother.
The soldiers rushed forward and killed Crotis.
Those Ptolemaic nobles naturally enjoyed allegiance to Cleopatra, after all, she was also the legal heir to the throne.
The first thing Cleopatra did after becoming a female pharaoh was to find a way to resist the attack of the Roman army.
Information shows that Caesar, with 80,000 people, could arrive at the royal city within ten days.
It is worth mentioning that although Rome is vast, the number of soldiers is not large.
The population and army of Da Qi were much larger than that of Rome. Now Rome has nearly forty legions, each with more than 10,000 people.
This number of soldiers made Western countries frightened!
But for Zhang Beichen, who is used to big scenes, it's just ordinary!
"Can we block the Romans?" Cleopatra was lying in Zhang Beichen's arms, still worried.
Zhang Beichen gently stroked her soft long hair and said, "Don't worry, Caesar wants to attack the city just after he brought 80,000 people? It's impossible!"
Thinking back then, he once defended hundreds of thousands of people!
As for fighting out of the city, Zhang Beichen did not consider it. Roman soldiers also fought for many years and had good combat power.
He doesn't want to lose these 30,000 people in vain!
And even if we try our best to repel these Romans, there are still hundreds of thousands of troops in the Roman Republic. How to deal with it?
No matter how powerful the Great Qi is, it is impossible to send a large army to support it.
Zhang Beichen also decided to defend but not attack for Cleopatra and business considerations.
...
[Caesar led the Roman army to the city of Ptolemy.]
Caesar looked at the top of the city wall. The goddess-like woman was holding hands with Zhang Beichen to watch the battle at the top of the city wall, which made him jealous.
"Siege!" Caesar ordered.
[The Roman army strives to attack the city, but the soldiers of the Great Qi are extremely experienced in defending the city. No matter how they charge, they cannot break the city.]
[Caesar has been sieging the city for more than half a month, but still has no results.]
At this time, Caesar could not bear it first!
Because his Roman army would not carry too much supplies during the expedition, they basically went all the way, either the local nobles were "filial to them" or they would rob them directly!
Now the city cannot be broken, and the army is in short supply of food and grass. If it does not retreat, the army will starve to death here.
Under the city, Caesar yelled: "Cleopatra, Zhang Beichen, I will come back! When the Roman army arrives again, it will inevitably slant the Ptolemaic dynasty!"
"It's easy to leave, I won't send it off!" Zhang Beichen smiled and waved, which made Caesar even more angry!
In his life, he defeated countless opponents, but he didn't expect that he would be blocked by an oriental man who came across the sea in this small Ptolemy!
Caesar secretly swore in his heart that after he went back, he would dispatch troops and conquer the place, kill Zhang Beichen, and snatch Cleopatra away!
...
[The Roman army withdrew. With the help of the Great Qi soldiers, Cleopatra quickly controlled the entire Ptolemaic dynasty and became a noble female pharaoh!]
[Cleopatra announced that the Ptolemaic dynasty and Daqi will be in good terms and will start trade with Daqi.]
On the Pharaoh's big bed, Zhang Beichen and Cleopatra were in disheveled clothes and hugged each other.
He found that Cleopatra and Wei Yao were somewhat similar, and this little girl was crazy and in some ways unrestrained.
"Don't leave me, okay?" Cleopatra said, holding him tightly.
Zhang Beichen did not answer, but said, "I am the prime minister of Daqi after all."
Cleopatra was a little disappointed and then asked, "When will you leave?"
Zhang Beichen said: "It's soon, but don't worry, I will come back to see you."
At this time, he noticed that Cleopatra made another small move.
"Before leaving, I will conceive your child! He (she) will be the Pharaoh of the Ptolemaic dynasty!" Cleopatra said firmly.
...
[You stayed in the Ptolemaic dynasty for several months and finally brought Western properties back to the fleet.]
At the harbor, Cleopatra stopped for a long time until the fleet disappeared at the end of the sea level, and she had been reluctant to leave for a long time.
...
[The fleet accelerated its return and finally returned to Qi after more than half a year.]
Upon hearing the fleet returned, Jiang Chan went to the port to greet Zhang Beichen in person.
As soon as she saw Zhang Beichen, she jumped into Zhang Beichen's arms unscrupulously and said in a resentful tone: "You are finally back, I'm so bored by myself!"
"Your Majesty, so many people are watching!" Zhang Beichen reminded.
"Do not care about them?" Jiang Chan snorted, she didn't want to let go.
Zhang Beichen smiled and said, "This time I brought back a lot of good things from the South and the West. Please give me a look!"
"Is that so? I want to see!" Jiang Chan followed Zhang Beichen on the ship.
There are various novel plants and animals on the treasure ship. Zhang Beichen also brought back a lion and a giraffe.
