Chapter 6766 The Roman Envoy’s Request However, the Roman envoy knew Zhao Yun’s status in the Jin army, and Zhao Yun was the sworn brother of the Jin emperor, which added a touch of mystery to Zhao Yun’s identity.

If we can get along well with Zhao Yun, subsequent requests will definitely be easier.

It is reasonable to send soldiers to escort the Roman envoys. The key is that the Roman Empire and the Jin State are not bordering each other. The Jin State can only escort the Roman envoys out of the Jin State, not to ensure that the Roman envoys can go smoothly.

departed from the Parthian Empire.

In Chang'an, the Roman envoys gradually accepted the power of Jin and showed respect in front of important Jin officials.

But after leaving Chang'an, the Roman envoy's pride gradually recovered.

How powerful the Roman Empire was. After obtaining these combat weapons, it will show its strong strength. Once the Jin army's combat weapons are cracked, the Roman Empire will once again be invincible in the world.

However, before meeting Zhao Yun, the Roman envoy adjusted his mentality. If something like that happened in Chang'an, it would delay the big event. It would be safest to leave Peshawar and return to the Roman Empire as soon as possible.

"General Zhao, the Roman envoy is outside the house asking for an audience." Lu Xun said.

Zhao Yun put the document in his hand on the desk, thought for a moment and said, "Let him come in."

The Roman envoy must be met. This aspect was taken into consideration when discussing with Chen Gong and Jia Xu. The key is the subsequent performance.

Around the time of tea, the Roman envoys, led by Lu Xun, entered the room.

The layout of the general's palace seemed a bit simple to the Roman envoy. It should be noted that Zhao Yun was a person who was granted the title of king, and he had a pivotal position in the Jin army. According to this status, it is reasonable for him to enjoy more luxury no matter how much luxury he has.

things in.

Simple, yet solemn.

However, these cannot affect the Roman envoys more. When they came to see Zhao Yun this time, they had to discuss something very important to the Roman envoys. It is not an exaggeration to say that it was a matter of life and death.

"General Zhao, the Roman envoy has arrived." Lu Xun said loudly.

Zhao Yun stood up and said, "We are busy with military affairs, so I will forgive you for any neglect."

The unhappiness in the Roman envoy's heart also dissipated. As an envoy of the Roman Empire, his status is said to be noble. Even if Zhao Yun has a high status in the Jin Kingdom, he should be respected enough when facing him.

.

But Zhao Yun did not come out to greet him, but Zhao Yun's explanation was within the acceptable range.

"General Zhao is busy with business, sorry to bother you." The Roman envoy smiled and then glanced at Lu Xun beside him.

Lu Xun understood and was about to say goodbye when Zhao Yun coughed lightly and said, "General Lu Xun is my confidant. There is no need to be shy about discussing matters."

The Roman envoy couldn't help but take another look at the young Lu Xun.

Lu Xun felt greatly benefited, but his expression did not change at all. As smart as he was, he naturally understood that there must be a reason for what Zhao Yun did.

The Roman envoy coming to visit Zhao Yun was a dispensable thing in itself, but that was during ordinary times, and it was known that among the materials transported by the Roman envoy this time, there were actually the Jin army's combat weapons artillery, three-eyed blunderbuss, and divine weapons.

After taking the gunpowder, Lu Xun was astonished, but he naturally understood the Roman envoy's mood at this time.

In any case, the Roman envoy's team was weak after all, but with the Jin army protecting it, the situation would be completely different.

Coupled with Zhao Yun's status in the Jin Kingdom, even if the Parthian Empire had other small ideas, they would have to restrain themselves.

Lu Xun had a lot of thoughts on this matter, but the most important thing right now was what happened next and what role he could play.

"General Zhao, this envoy can speak frankly." The Roman envoy said: "I came to Jin this time to represent the Roman Empire, reached an alliance with Jin, and was received by the Emperor of Jin."

Zhao Yun nodded slightly, he knew these things.

"But General Zhao also knows that it is impossible to resolve the grudge between the Roman Empire and Parthia in a short time, and the safety of the envoy team cannot be guaranteed." The Roman envoy said in a sincere tone:

"I'd like to trouble General Zhao to send soldiers to escort the envoy team back to the Roman Empire. If this happens, the empire will be even more grateful and respectful to General Zhao."

Zhao Yun pondered for a moment and said: "General Lu, can you receive a letter from Chang'an about this matter?"

Lu Xun cupped his hands and said, "As for General Zhao, there is no such thing."

Zhao Yun frowned slightly, "In this case, it would be a bit difficult to handle."

"General Zhao has a high status in the Jin Kingdom. How can it be said that he can't make the decision on such a small matter?" the Roman envoy said in surprise.

Lu Xun explained: "The envoy did not know that the mobilization of troops and horses of the Jin State needs to be reported to the Ministry of War and heard by heaven. However, this matter is obviously beyond the jurisdiction of General Zhao, and there is no order from the Ministry of War. There is no border.

In the event of war, it is a serious crime to mobilize the army without authorization."

The Roman envoy's mood became even more depressed. Before leaving Chang'an, he had not considered these situations. However, the news he received was that Zhao Yun was in charge of Shuangzhou's military affairs and had the power to mobilize the army.

Unexpectedly, when Zhao Yun came here, he would say another story. For a while, the Roman envoy couldn't tell who was lying, but what he knew most clearly was that this matter could not be delayed. The longer it was delayed, the more

The safety of the messenger team is even less guaranteed.

"General Zhao is guarding Shuangzhou and has the power to mobilize the army. This matter was informed by Guo Shangshu." The Roman envoy said urgently.

Lu Xun understood in his heart that Zhao Yun was not going to agree, and his current task was to help Zhao Yun get rid of the Roman envoy's request. Besides, the Roman envoy's request itself was problematic. Between the Jin State and the Roman Empire, there was the Parthian Empire.

of.

Could it be that the Jin army entered the Parthian Empire to escort the Roman envoys? This seems to have little respect for the Parthian Empire, and even less trust in the strength of the Roman Empire.

When they arrived, there were no Jin troops to meet the Roman envoys.

Of course, the most important reason is that when we returned to the Roman Empire, we had more important combat weapons. These combat weapons must be of great help to the Roman Empire. Otherwise, the Roman Empire would not be in trouble.

These things are transported back to distant places, and these things are exchanged for materials.

"The envoy only knows one thing but not the other. It is good that General Zhao is guarding Shuangzhou and has the power to mobilize troops, but General Zhao does not have the power to send soldiers into Parthia to escort the envoy back to Rome." Lu Xun said: "If this is the case.

If so, wouldn't it make the relationship between Jin and Anxi tense? It should be noted that there are tens of thousands of Jin people in Anxi."

"And An'an is an ally with the Jin State. Wouldn't this embarrass An'an?"

Lu Xun's words made Zhao Yun nod in agreement, "Envoy, this is what I am most worried about."

"The mobilization of troops and horses is not a trivial matter, and the envoy must be aware of it."

The Roman envoy's mood became even lower. Although he didn't know the reason, the current situation gave him a bad feeling.

The relationship between the Parthian Empire and the Jin State was more stable than that of the Roman Empire. After all, the Jin State had received a lot of benefits from the Parthian Empire.

If a war broke out between the Parthian Empire and the Roman Empire, what impact would it have on the Jin Dynasty?

At this thought, the Roman envoy was shaken in his heart, as if he had spied on a top secret.

However, the Roman envoy soon put aside such thoughts. There is no doubt about the power of the Jin State, and the hatred between the Roman Empire and the Parthian Empire cannot be resolved casually. Even if there is no Jin State, the battle between the Roman Empire and the Parthian Empire will not be resolved.

It won't stop.

But with the addition of the Jin State, all this gives people the feeling that the Jin State is plotting secretly.

It should be noted that the Jin State is extremely powerful. If the powerful Jin State can seize more opportunities, it may not be able to gain greater benefits from it.

Furthermore, it is not difficult to see from the past actions of Jin State’s top leaders that Jin State has rich experience in these aspects and can operate them with ease.

"General Zhao, the Roman Empire and the Jin State are also in an alliance, and this transaction between the two parties is related to whether the relationship between the two parties will be stable in the future. General Zhao does not want to see the envoy team having trouble in the Parthian Empire, which will in turn arouse the anger of the Roman Empire.

?” The Roman envoy still did not give up.

Mainly because Zhao Yun is currently the only force he can rely on. No matter how powerful the Roman Empire is, it is still far away from here. There are many things that the Roman Empire cannot control.

Zhao Yun frowned and thought deeply, "Please return the envoy temporarily. This matter will need to be discussed later."

The Roman envoy nodded, "I'll leave everything to the general. If it wasn't an emergency, I wouldn't have made such a request."

"Envoy please." Zhao Yundao said.

Looking at the leaving Roman envoy, Zhao Yun had a smile on his face. He said, "I want to leave after getting these combat weapons. How can such a simple thing happen? Not to mention the Jin Kingdom, even the Parthian Empire will probably be affected by it."

A foot in the door.

However, precisely because Anxi also has such thoughts and even has some secret plans, Jin's actions will have a greater chance of success.

Could it be that after something happened to the Roman envoy team, the Parthian side would be eager to explain to the Roman Empire? Not to mention whether the people of the Roman Empire would believe that the proud Parthian royal family would not do this. The war itself was between Parthia and Rome.

Just ordinary.

This also gave Zhao Yun more confidence in this plan. As long as this operation can be successful, it will definitely be of great help to the future development of the Jin Kingdom.

It is an indisputable fact that the territory of the Jin State is vast, but as an important general of the Jin State, will Zhao Yun be bothered by the fact that the Jin State's territory is becoming more and more vast?

When the Jin Army achieves greater success, and when the Jin Congress becomes more glorious, as a general of the Jin Army, it is a matter of great honor.

It is not difficult for many generals of the Jin army to leave their names in history. This has a lot to do with Jin's achievements on the battlefield.

When this kind of pride affects the Jin army more, the Jin army will have more desire for war.

Once the war between the Roman Empire and the Parthian Empire begins, no matter which side wins in the end, the Jin State, who is watching from the sidelines, will get more convenience when it finally takes action.

Even if the other party understands some of the plans, what can be done to stop it?

Zhao Yun turned his gaze to Lu Xun and said, "Bo Yan, you did a good job."

"This is a matter within the humble position. As long as the general has orders, he must do his best to his humble duty." Lu Xun saluted.

Zhao Yun nodded with satisfaction. Although Lu Xun was an old man from Soochow, he could see the ability and loyalty he had shown after becoming an official of the Jin State.

Besides, the current Jin State does not lack the children of aristocratic families. If they behave calmly under the rule of Jin State, they will make greater contributions to the development of Jin State, and they will also be appointed.

"Today's matter must not be worn outside, so as not to cause chaos in others' minds. When the time is right, I will tell you some information." Zhao Yun warned.

Lu Xun nodded in agreement. From Zhao Yun's attitude towards this matter, Lu Xun could feel the extraordinary. Considering Zhao Yun's previous performance, it is not difficult to guess that this may be related to the decision-making of the Emperor of Jin, and it is of great importance.
