Shop around and Vila Toli also said: "Commander, we think this plan is feasible. We have won by experience and defeated the Roman army. We will accept it when we see it. When the Ninth Army dare not go out of the city to fight, Go north quickly and don't get entangled with it.
As we go, we expand our people and grow stronger. "
Xu Ding said: "Dacia is a good place. It is located in the Danube Plain. It is beautiful and rich. Or can we gain a foothold there? Can the Romans allow us to gain a foothold there?
If we can't gain a foothold, then where are we going north?
It was the place of the Goths, and we will only retaliate against the powerful Roman army at that time, and it will be persistent.
Second, in the face of the hostile attacks of the Goths and others, we may have no chance or time to develop. "
Mundu and his friend Vila Toli really wanted to say that if they had to go to the northeast, that would be the territory of the Germans, and then they could do nothing with the Germans.
With the Germans, by the way, let's win over the Celts, wouldn't there be two Allied forces?
What's more, Rome is still in civil strife, and the new emperor is also fighting with the rebellious local governor in the west, so he can fish in troubled waters.
However, this plan was rejected by Xu Ding early on.
So the two didn't mention it.
"So our eyes should be on the east, open the road to Istanbul, cross the Black Sea, the Aegean Sea, and go to the provincial border in the east.
In this way, we can absorb huge troops all the way to the east, and can greatly disrupt the order of Roman rule, and destroy the economies of the eastern provinces by the way.
In the end, we can get the support of the Parthian Empire, instead of dealing with Rome north and south. "Xu Ding talked eloquently:
"What's more, we still have the naval forces that haven't converged. Once we have the cooperation of the naval forces, we can reach the upper reaches of the Black Sea and slowly advance, whether it's going south to attack Rome or going north to conquer Sarmat. People, turn the Black Sea into an inland sea for our activities little by little, and then the entire eastern part of the Roman Empire will be ours.
The navy is an indispensable and powerful force for us to defeat the Roman Empire. In this world, an empire and troops without a navy are destined to lose their qualifications for hegemony.
So we can't go north, we have to continue east, we have to wait for Soros. "
It's Soros again, what's so good about this guy.
It's hard to say whether a pirate leader will really come to the Aegean Sea with his navy.
While everyone was having a meeting, someone suddenly made noise outside the door.
Someone tried to break in, but was stopped by the guards.
Xu Ding asked: "Who is outside the door? What happened?"
The person in charge of the gate guard came in and said, "Commander, he was sent by Commander Meng Yu from Durrakium, because the commander was in a meeting, so..."
Xu Ding had a bad feeling about Meng Yu's person, and hurriedly said, "Let him in!"
The guard let the man in, and the man immediately paid homage to Xu Ding, "Commander, please save our commander, the Romans have surrounded Durrakium with heavy troops. If you don't send troops to support us, Durrakium will Mu will fall, and all the brothers in the city will die in battle."
"To be more specific, why are you still in Dulagium? Didn't I write a letter asking you to fight while withdrawing, relying on the cities along the road to carry out a deep blockade?" Xu Ding asked a little puzzled.
The visitor replied: "Commander, shortly after you left, the Roman navy attacked Durrakium, and Commander Meng Yu led us to repel the Roman attack.
In order to let you go farther and more safely, Commander Meng Yu stayed in Durrakium and did not move. Seeing that Rome could not land at Durrakium, it divided two troops, one landed in the north, and the other landed in Durrakium. The province of Epirus landed.
The two enemy armies marched from north to south and surrounded Durrakium. The Roman pursuers attacked the city twice but were blocked by us.
Originally, we still had a chance to withdraw, but Commander Meng Yu still did not give up on the city, but carried out your banner, and firmly attracted the Roman pursuers to Durrakium. "
"Bastard, who told him to do this, he is disobedient, an idiot." Xu Ding stood up and reprimanded, but his heart was warm.
Other people's hearts are also extremely complicated.
In order to buy more time for the army to turn to the battle, Meng Yu would rather sacrifice himself to delay the enemy, it is truly epic.
He only has more than 1000 horses, how did he block the attack of the Roman army.
Although the city of Durrakium is strong and has enough food and grass, it is a miracle that it can hold back for so long.
Everyone dared not speak, Meng Yu was the most loyal retainer of Alexander Qin.
Talking nonsense will offend the commander.
Xu Ding glanced at everyone, and seeing that everyone was looking at him, Xu Ding didn't think about it, and quickly gave a reply: "Shop Bi, Mengdu, and Vila Toli obey orders. When I'm not around, you can take care of yourself here." The three are responsible together, and if there is a disagreement, the three of you vote to pass, and the minority obeys the majority.
While I am away, you must not fight head-to-head with the Roman army, and train your soldiers well in Alexandria.
If the Ninth Army comes to attack the city, just hold the city and wait for me to come back, good people dismiss the meeting! "
After the reunion, everyone left, only Huobi, Mengdu, and Vila Toli remained untouched.
After shopping around, he said, "Isn't your decision too hasty, Commander? Meng Yu is in prison. We are all very sad and grateful for this, but what can we do to save him?"
Meng Du also said: "Yes, Commander, when we arrive at Durrakium, the Romans have also captured the city. Meng Yu may be in danger."
Viratori also wanted to speak, but Xu Ding raised his hand to stop him, and he said: "You are all right, as a rational commander, I shouldn't save Meng Yu.
But Meng Yu is not only my general, he is also my brother.
Don't forget why he is in prison, he is for us, and based on this alone, I should save him.
And it's not just him, if any of you were surrounded in Rakium, I would go to rescue them. "
At this point, the three of them just wanted to persuade, but they could only swallow it in their throats.
Xu Ding went on to say: "I will only take the cavalry, and the other troops will stay behind to defend the city. Train the soldiers well. When I return, it will be time to break through Thessaloniki."
"It's the commander-in-chief!" The three looked at each other and had to reply.
After finalizing three people, Xu Ding did not set off immediately, but asked people to recruit all the craftsmen and blacksmiths in the city and the army.
After a night of rush work, he made a few gadgets, and left Alexandria with the cavalry before dawn.
After leaving the city and waiting until dawn, Xu Ding suddenly ordered the cavalry to stop, and then said: "It is very hard for us as cavalry to ride on horseback. Today I have prepared two good things for you that can change the world. Everyone, let's see." How do I equip them.
After speaking, Xu Ding jumped off the horse, and cut ten thousand pieces of leather tied to the horse's belly.
Then Xu Ding took out the saddle, put it on the horse's back, tied it up, and hung up the stirrups.
Then he got on the horse and sat firmly on the horse's back.
However, the horse might not be used to it, so it began to trot.
Xu Ding drank a few times, controlled the horse, and stopped the training.
Only then did everyone understand what Xu Ding made of these two things.
"Do you understand? If you understand, start to install your own war horse. If one person is not skilled, then two or three people will help together. After we are done, we will go to support Durrakium.
