Xu Ding said: "Where is the largest city in the north, and how long will we have to walk to get there?"
"Returning to the commander, the largest city is Brindisi in the northeast. It is still a day away from us. This is also a seaport city, mainly for Macedonian provinces in the Balkan Peninsula, Epirus provinces, and Dalma. Trade in the province of Tia." The spies replied.
Xu Ding nodded, then took out the map seized from the city of Naples, looked at it again and again, and finally said: "Let's go, first lurk outside the city, check the situation, take it here if you have the opportunity, and then raise ships, wait Follow Soros and they sail north together."
City of Naples!
Soon after Xu Ding and others left, they were taken over by the people of the Senate, and the person in charge of this matter was Chuan Pu, a younger senior member of the Senate.
Chuan Pu summarized the information reported by each army, and then asked the dispatched navy general: "So, Alexander Qin wants to go east, wants to attack Crotone, and then jumps to attack Achaia. "
"That's right, Elder Trump, that's what the group of pirates said. He said that Alexander Qin was willing to pay a large sum of money to cooperate with them. When the time came to take down Achaia, the pirates earned the money, and the people and supplies went to the rebels.
That Soros went east ahead of schedule and headed for the east coast. "The navy general returned.
Chuan Pu thought for a while and said, "Is it possible that Alexander Qin took people over the mountains to the north? Didn't he say at the beginning that he wanted to go north? From the previous action, Alexander Qin was very good at avoiding reality. He is a guy with a very strategic vision, he cannot be underestimated!"
"The possibility of Elder Chuan Pu is not impossible, but it is very small. If Alexander Qin wanted to cross the mountains and go north, then he would not have to offend those pirates, and there would be no need to get so many ships.
Now his army has more than doubled in size, and the number is much larger. It is extremely difficult to completely avoid our sight.
Only by disembarking with the owner of the ship can you take advantage of the advantages, and flee to the sea if you don't have the advantages. This is the perfect strategy. "The navy officer said with eloquence.
Reasonable and well-founded, the veteran of Chuanpu nodded slightly and sighed: "Yes, this is an extremely cunning guy, then we will continue to shrink our troops eastward and increase our search efforts. If Alexander Qin really went to Crotone, Then we'll kill him right there.
Also, his ridiculous navy army will also be killed together. If possible, I really hope that those pirates will really help Alexander Qin. "
The navy general smiled: "This may disappoint the elders, these pirates know how capable they are, they dare not help Alexander Qin, otherwise they would not secretly disclose the news to our navy.
Besides, Xu Ding even took their ship, these pirates are very vengeful. "
Soros went east all the way, landed and fought when he saw a place where he could go ashore. If he couldn't, he avoided it from a distance.
Now he wants money and money, food and food, fame and the banner of Xu Ding's avatar.
The whole team suddenly swelled up.
If it was before, he could have taken the opportunity to stand on his own and become a big bandit, but in the end he chose to follow Xu Ding.
As a big bandit himself, it is obvious from the scriptures that he will be beaten by the Roman army and will eventually be defeated, but he will be able to fight vigorously with Xu Ding.
Even if he died, he was worthy of the name of Soros.
In this way, he went all the way east, firmly attracting the attention of the Romans.
Soon his ship reached the southeast corner. For this reason, he also specially sent people to attack some towns in the Sicilian province, and he also gained some gains.
However, when the city of Messina was attacked, it was met with a fierce counterattack from the province of Sicily.
So he resolutely gave up the invasion, and then turned the rudder to go north.
"Damn it, those pirates are right. The rebels are going to attack Crotone. Fortunately, we are prepared here, otherwise the province of Sicily will be finished first." The military commander of the province of Sicily was in Messina. After looking at the Soros troops who turned the rudder to the north on the city wall, the opponent immediately said:
"Inform the elders immediately and tell them that the rebels are heading to Crotone."
Soon Trump and others stepped up the siege of Crotone.
However, the defense of the city was not strengthened.
They just want Xu Ding to fight, and when Xu Ding is defeated, they are surrounding them.
You have to give Xu Ding enough reason to fight, and you have to make him feel that he can come down and dare to bite the bait.
However, after a few days, no sign of the rebel army was found, and even Soros' navy had not yet reached the vicinity of Crotone.
This navy seems to have suddenly disappeared.
In fact, Soros went east into the depths of the sea, and then went east and went east.
Because his goal is not Crotone, nor the north, but the Aegean Sea.
"Old Trump, the group of pirates contacted us just now. Soros did not contact them according to the original code. They may have gone directly to fight Achaia." The Roman navy has been chasing Soros, trying to It was blocked on the sea, but it has not caught up.
After all, Soros' navy had to leave a few days earlier.
"Leave aside the Pirate Alliance, and go directly to Achaia." The elder Chuanpu touched it, suddenly realized something, and shouted:
"Not good! The rebels are going to attack Brindisi and Alexander Qin, but they actually want to go north. Hurry up and send troops to the north to pursue them. They will flee to the Balkans when it's too late..."
Chapter 688 Guo Jia Reports on World Affairs (Three in One)
Xu Ding had seized the armor and weapons of the Roman army, disguised them well, and let him attack the city of Brindisi himself.Want-free-free-watch-complete-full-version please Baidu search-
Things progressed more smoothly than in Naples. He captured the city in a short while and arranged for an interception team to capture or kill all the rout Roman soldiers who escaped from the city.
After conquering this place, Xu Ding implemented strict control and strictly blocked the news.
He also sent people to the east to search for information, and then detained all the ships coming from the north, and selected a group of slave gladiators to fill the team.
After waiting for several days, some sailors and captains who can make the ship were recruited.
After everything was settled, the spies sent to the east came back.
"Commander! Something is wrong. The Romans have sent reinforcements to Brindisi. They may have seen through our plan to capture here."
Xu Ding looked at the sky, and then ordered: "Come here, go and plant the red flag on the hilltop on the east coast for me, remember to be eye-catching, so that the boats coming from the sea can be seen, and those who come from the south to the north must be seen." The Roman army could see it."
At that moment, someone followed the order, so Xu Ding said to others: "After half a day, the army will set off and head north to Macedonia. When we arrive in Macedonia, we will start to work hard."
The peninsula is home to most of the camp of the Roman Empire, so the symbolism here is more symbolic, and the actual situation will be very bad, so Xu Cai wanted to leave the peninsula and go north to Macedonia as soon as possible, so he never had a direct conflict with the Roman army.
Half a day later, the army set off, and everyone drove the captured ships to the north...
Days of crossing the Adriatic Bend are dull and tedious.
Fortunately, Xu Ding had twelve to entertain, so the avatar was entrusted to him, and he returned to the main body.
As soon as he came back, Guo Jia came over to report the latest situation of the big man, holding the information that had just been sent back from various places in his hand, Guo Jia's naturally hip-hop optimistic expression was a little more worried.
Xu Ding asked: "Feng Xiao, why are you worrying about it? Could it be that the princes of the world are uniting to deal with us again?"
"My lord, it's not true. It's just that the actions of the major princes are very frequent recently, and they are all undergoing major changes. I'm afraid it will have some impact on our future plans." Guo Jia replied.
Xu Ding said: "Tell me, what happened to the big man recently?"
Guo Jia said: "My lord, let's talk about Cao Cao first. This person should be a hero. If you don't kill him once, you will be a great enemy in the future. Recently, his subordinate Liu Ye has frequently contacted people in Yingchuan. Now, Chen Qun from the Chen family will be killed. , Xun Yu from the Xun family, Du Xi from the Du family, Zhao Yan from the Zhao family, and others were pulled under his command.
These people actively planned for them, and Yuan Shu had to give Yingchuan to Cao Cao, Cao Cao gave Jiyin to Zhang Miao, and Zhang Miao gave Cao Cao the southern part of Chenliu County.
