Chapter 6764: Provoking Rome will lead to death without a burial place
The exchanges between empires are inherently mixed with many interests, and the initiative in exchanges is often in the hands of the strong.
It is good that the Parthian Empire has a strong military, but the Battle of Kushan made the Parthian soldiers realize the gap between their strength and that of the Jin army. Such a gap would definitely be extremely fatal in a war.
The huge amount of supplies was delivered to Shuangzhou, but it kept Chen Gong busy.
With these materials, the railway from Shuangzhou to Guishan City will be completed faster.
Chen Gong has heard about the transportation speed of the railway, but he has not seen it with his own eyes. However, judging from the information he received, if this matter is true, the Jin Kingdom will be even more terrifying in the future, especially when facing a war.
, its amazing efficiency will bring more possibilities to the Jin army's campaign.
Shuangzhou is far away from Chang'an, which is also an important factor limiting the development of the Jin State. If such factors are well solved by the Jin State, when war comes, what else will the Jin State have to worry about?
As the mysterious place of the Jin Kingdom, the Craftsman's Workshop has made a lot of efforts to improve the Jin army's strength over the years.
The craftsman's workshop was able to develop something as magical as a train this time, which did not surprise Chen Gong.
Before the Jin Dynasty, who would have thought that there would be combat weapons with a range of more than a thousand steps on the battlefield. Although artillery was inconvenient to transport, it is undeniable that the emergence of artillery gave the Jin Dynasty more weapons in the war.
The possibility gives the Jin Congress greater deterrence.
This time, the Jin State sold artillery, three-eyed blunderbuss and other combat weapons to the Parthian Empire and the Roman Empire. It seems a bit unbelievable. Is it not a reflection of the Jin Emperor's confidence?
Perhaps the Jin army already had combat weapons that far surpassed artillery and three-eyed blunderbuss. If they had obtained these combat weapons, it would be a huge mistake to naively think that they could defeat the brave and capable Jin army on the battlefield.
From this three-party transaction, Chen Gong realized that the Emperor of Jin wanted to make more profits from this transaction. If it was just for these supplies, there was no need to do so.
And all of this depends on Shuangzhou's actions.
Compared with the prosperity of Chang'an City, you can feel the desolation of the countries in the Western Regions. However, at this time, the countries in the Western Regions have developed greatly compared to before. This was also brought about by the rule of the Jin Kingdom.
Especially when transportation becomes more convenient, businessmen from the countries in the Western Regions become more active. Now, the businessmen from the countries in the Western Regions already have an influence that cannot be underestimated.
When it comes to doing business in the Parthian Empire and the Roman Empire, merchants from the Western Regions countries are extremely enthusiastic. Businessmen from the Western Regions countries are very good at doing business.
Moreover, they have their backs against the big trees so they can enjoy the shade. Now that they are from the Jin Kingdom, they will receive more protection when doing business. This is very different from the dangers they faced when doing business in the past.
It is precisely because of this that the trend of doing business has caused even greater waves in the countries of the Western Regions.
The Jin State itself has a lot of support for business, which makes these businessmen feel like a fish in water.
The emergence of trains has made merchants in the Western Regions even more excited. In time, when Jin's trains can lead to more important cities, their business will become easier.
The original Thirty-Six Kingdoms of the Western Regions are now states and counties under the rule of the Jin State. At first, the high-ranking officials and nobles of the Thirty-Six Kingdoms may not be able to adapt to these changes, but as they learn more about the power of the Jin State,
It can only be the default.
Besides, there is no need to worry about the coming war. What reason do they have to reject Jin's rule? As for resistance, it is just a sign of the nobles' unwillingness to give up. Real civilians want a stable life.
Accompanying the supplies on the train were the Parthian envoys and the Roman envoys. They set off one after another, but they met each other.
Mountains of supplies were wrapped in black cloth, and the guards on both sides stared at each other warily.
The enmity between the Parthian Empire and the Roman Empire was already very deep, but this time the Roman Empire purchased a large number of combat weapons from the Jin State, and in addition, they were passing through Parthia, which invisibly increased the risk of the trip.
A lot.
"The Roman envoy is quite confident." Anadoshan broke the deadlock.
The Roman envoy snorted coldly: "The powerful Roman Empire will not be afraid of any challenge. Anyone who dares to challenge the Roman Empire will definitely die without a burial place."
"That's not necessarily true. The Parthian Empire's military strength is also strong." Anadoshan sneered: "If Rome is strong, why would it need to buy these things from Jin?"
The Roman envoy was keenly aware of the murderous intent in Anadoshan's eyes, and he couldn't help but tremble in his heart. He must know that these supplies are of great importance, and they played an important role in the war between the Roman Empire and the Parthian Empire. If the Parthian Empire
If the people of the empire interfere with this, their trip will be in great danger.
If there is a Jin army escort, it will be easy to save the day. But will the Jin army general Zhao Yun agree to these requests? Is the letter from Guo Jia, the Minister of War, really useful?
At this moment, the Roman envoy was in a nervous mood.
However, considering that these supplies were of great significance to the Roman Empire, he had a mentality of looking forward to death. No matter how bumpy the road ahead was, he must bring these items back to the Roman Empire, and he would not let the people of rest take advantage.
The proud Roman legion will not decline just because the Parthian Empire has the support of Jin.
Relatively speaking, the Parthian messenger Anadoshan was in a lighter mood, because the relationship between the Parthian Empire and the Jin State was friendly, and this trip was getting closer and closer to the Parthian Empire, which would give him more security.
.
As for attacking the Roman envoys, Anadoshan did not think about it. From the various measures of the Roman Empire, it is not difficult to see that the Roman Empire at this time had many ideas about the Parthian Empire, and these would give the Parthian Empire
It brought about war.
If possible, the Parthian Empire naturally does not want to experience more wars. The failure on the Kushan battlefield cost the Parthian Empire an extremely heavy price. It cannot ease out of the war faster and cannot let its own military strength
If it is promoted faster, the subsequent situation will inevitably become more severe.
The atmosphere in the stadium was tense, but no one would take the lead at this time. After all, it is the territory of the Jin State. If the people of the Jin State are able to seize the handle, things will become more subtle later. The necklace of the Jin State cannot be used.
You will suffer a loss, and the shrewdness of Jin officials is obvious to all.
"Anadoshan, don't think that with the support of Jin, Anxi will dare to compete with the Roman Empire. Such an idea will make Anxi fall apart faster." The Roman envoy snorted coldly.
Anadosan said: "It seems that Rome is jealous of the friendship between Parthia and Jin. Of course, this is understandable. Who makes proud Rome without these weapons of war?"
"You" the Roman envoy's face turned red.
Purchasing these combat weapons from the Jin State is a helpless matter. As Anadoshan said, the people of the Roman Empire are proud and their combat methods are the most fierce. If the people in the country know this information, they will definitely
It cannot be accepted easily.
Who would have thought that in the far east, there would be a country more powerful than the Roman Empire. What is even more incredible is that this powerful country is now gradually threatening the Roman Empire.
From the current situation, it can be seen that once the Jin State has an idea for the Parthian Empire and puts it into practice, the Roman Empire will inevitably be impacted.
In the eyes of many high-level officials in the Roman Empire, there are benefits to forming an alliance with the Jin State. If the Jin State can agree to send troops to attack the Parthian Empire, it will be an even better thing. The Roman Empire also wants to gain greater benefits from the war.
of benefits.
With the Parthian Empire in between, it was quite difficult for people in the Roman Empire to know more about the Jin Kingdom.
"Two envoys, it's very windy here, please go into the city to rest." A Jin army general came forward and said.
The two of them then borrowed their donkeys from the slope and headed into the city, surrounded by guards.
The cities in the Thirty-six Kingdoms of the Western Regions are developing well, especially the cities along the way. The speed of development is extremely fast. The merchants who come and go can bring vitality to the development of these cities, which makes it even more exciting.
These cities burst out with unimaginable vitality.
The stable Jin State can bring more guarantees to the development of the city.
However, after seeing the prosperity of Chang'an City, the envoys from both sides were able to accept the bustling situation in the city more quickly.
It's just that the Roman envoy was in a heavy mood. Under the rule of the Jin State, Anxi did not dare to act arbitrarily. If it were under the rule of Anxi, there would be a long journey to return to the Roman Empire.
This also made the Roman envoy determined to let the Jin army escort him, even if he had to pay a certain price, he would not hesitate to do so.
At the same time, the Roman envoy quickly conveyed the current situation to let the Roman high-level officials understand the current situation. In his opinion, it was very necessary.
The Roman Empire had always had ideas about the Parthian Empire, but it was very difficult to realize the ambitions of the Roman Empire. The sudden appearance of the Jin State made the top brass of the Roman Empire see the possibility of destroying the Parthian Empire.
Attacking on one side will be more difficult, but forming an alliance with Jin will make it easier to attack Parthia, and perhaps destroy Parthia after this alliance.
From the fall of the Kushan Empire, we can see that the Jin State's military strength was strong, but the top brass of the Roman Empire did not think that the powerful Roman legions were no match for the Jin Army on the battlefield.
After all, the Roman Legion has experienced many wars. Being able to win from cruel wars proves its extraordinary nature. Maybe the Jin Army has its outstanding points, but the Roman Legion has never been afraid of war.
.
It is precisely because of the powerful Roman Legion that the top brass of the Roman Empire had more expectations for war and became more fearless in the face of war.
The most important thing for the Roman envoys to go to Jin this time was to discuss with the Jin emperor a joint attack on the Parthian Empire.
During the conversation with the Emperor of Jin, the Roman envoy felt that the Emperor of Jin did not want to start a war in a short period of time. Considering the current situation of Jin, it is not difficult to see the reason.
It is good for the Jin State to have strong soldiers and horses, but after annexing the Kushan Empire, it will take time to relax.
This also made the senior officials of the Roman Empire envious of the good luck of the Jin emperor. It should be noted that the Kushan Empire also had a vast territory. It was not as strong as the Parthian Empire, which could not be conquered for a long time. The battles over the years had worn out the Roman Empire.
A lot of manpower and material resources.
Although the Jin army defeated the Parthian army on the Kushan battlefield, the Roman high-level officials did not think that the Jin army was more powerful than the Roman legions.
Because in previous wars, more Roman legions attacked the Parthian pass, rather than fighting head-on.
If the Parthian army gave up the checkpoint and fought a decisive battle with the Roman legions, the Roman high-level officials had absolute confidence that they would defeat the Parthian army in a frontal battle and then seize control of the Parthian army.
The Roman Empire has always been aggressive, and the proud Roman legion also has a brilliant record. Under such circumstances, it is reasonable that the Roman legion will be frequently dispatched on the battlefield.
But the discovery in the Jin Kingdom made the Roman envoy unable to forget it, and this led to a series of events that followed.
Three days later, the two convoys set off.
It is quite difficult to transport these goods. Although there are many merchants coming and going, it will take time to find more free vehicles.
The Roman envoy was anxious, but the Anxi envoy was in a more relaxed mood.
What Anadoshan was thinking more about was what was behind this transaction. Did the Emperor of Jin simply want to obtain supplies?
The rapid development of Jin State requires a huge amount of materials, especially in the construction of railways. Fast transportation will bring a greater burden to the construction of Jin State. The materials obtained from this transaction can
It brought more opportunities to the rapid development of Jin State.
The powerful Jin State needed opportunities for rapid development after the war. The emergence of trains was extremely important. In these aspects, the Parthian Empire was incomparable.
This is also the obvious advantage that the Jin State has in development. If the development of the Jin State will bring greater benefits, what kind of ambitions will the emperor of the Jin State have in the future?
The key is whether there is a plan by the Emperor of Jin behind this transaction. After experiencing more things, Anadoshan is more cautious.
In the past, the Parthian Empire and the Jin State formed an alliance to attack Kushan. However, when the war was about to be won, the Jin emperor turned his back. The Parthian army failed on the battlefield of Kushan, not to mention losing troops and generals. Such an experience was frustrating.
