The Qin State in the east is like a rising sun, rising slowly.

Its light exudes dazzling glory. Under this endless halo, such as Han Xin, Zhang Liang, Li Zuoche, and Li Zhongxiang, who have left their marks in history, are rewriting their lives with a new look and posture.

Among these brilliant names, Li Yuan's figure is the brightest of the Big Dipper. Without his guidance, other constellations will lose their goal of catching up.

Looking at Li Yuan, who was explaining the situation and geography of various parts of the West to the Qin generals, Han Xin looked solemn and felt uneasy for a long time. From the inside, Han Xin was a very proud person, especially in terms of military use, his capture of fighter jets, analysis of the situation of the enemy and us, and his grasp of the mentality of the enemy generals, have reached the point of perfection.

But facing Li Yuan, Han Xin's self-confidence dropped to a low point. Xiang Yu, Liu Bang, and these temporary heroes fell like meteors one by one. Han Xin asked himself that although he was unparalleled in wisdom, he probably wouldn't have any good results in front of the son of Tianzhi, who often made a comeback.

"King Yan, next, your army's main goal is to continue to oppress westward and strive to take three years to completely eliminate the Rakshasa people (Slavs) in the Yenisei River and Volga River, thus forcing these nations to migrate to the west. Do you understand?" Li Yuan talked about the humanities and geography of Europe and looked at Han Xin with a bright look.

"Your Majesty, are you sure you want to expel rather than destroy them all?" Han Xin asked with a puzzled look on his face.

The result of expulsion is likely to leave sequelae, the actions of Qin when it was powerful today. Perhaps in a few years, they will consider the excuse of revenge for other clans. If they are physically eliminated, even if the victims are gritted their teeth, they will not be able to crawl out of the underworld.

Li Yuan nodded: "The decisive battle between the Qin Dynasty and Rome is not far away. We don't have so much time to pay attention to those backward tribal nations. At this time, we hope to concentrate all our strength. Although your troops of King Yan are in the north, once the war is tight, they will be recruited to the southern battlefield at any time."

In history, the great ethnic migration movement in northern Europe that caused the Roman Empire to fall apart happened more than a hundred years later. The real promoter, Emperor Wu of Han, was destined to be impossible to appear in this time and space. Therefore, for the future of the people of the Qin Dynasty and to demonstrate the leading position of the Eastern nation, Li Yuan took action.

"I will wait for Your Majesty's orders at any time." Han Xin was excited. The respect for him in Li Yuan's words greatly satisfied Han Xin's self-esteem.

The decisive battle with Rome—.

This was not only Li Yuan’s expectation, but also the goal of Qin generals such as Han Xin. After completing the domestic unification war, the military generals lost their goal for a while, and it was Li Yuan who once again aroused their enterprising fighting spirit.

With such an understanding, Han Xin has been very upright in recent years. Although he was appointed as the King of Yan, the troops under his jurisdiction reached 100,000, but after receiving the order of Li Yuan to go on an expedition again, Han Xin left everything without hesitation and personally led his army to rush into the snow and ice.

——.

West of the Balkans.

The sacred land of the Macedonians, on the banks of Lake Ohrid, a seven-day snow cage of snow covered the valleys and hills of this area with a thick white cotton coat.

Unlike the Romans who started their own oil crops such as olive trees, the Macedonians were more good at hunting. The mountainous and rugged terrain, the cold and humid weather, and the roads that were not smooth, allowing the Macedonian ancestors to freely breed and reproduce on this land that belonged to them.

One hundred and fifty years ago, Alexander the Great led his Macedonian people out of the mountains and occupied the Peloponnese Peninsula to the south, making the Greek city-states that had always looked down on Macedonia and regarded them as barbarians. Then, the Macedonian army advanced eastward and annexed all the powerful and declining Persian Empire. At its most glorious time, Alexander even marched eastward to South Asia.

If Alexander hadn't died early, this great empire spanning Eurasia might have really allowed the Macedonians to gain the opportunity to grow their nation, but all of this became hopeless after the death of the great hero. Among the subsequent Macedonian kings, Philip V was considered one of the most ambitious ones, but now his situation is extremely difficult. The Romans had already reached the capital city, and Macedonia was about to collapse.

In the city of Pera.

King Philip V of Macedonia was frowning. The sudden war initiated by the Qin army in Constantinople had not yet reached the west coast due to weather and terrain.

The Thracians' betrayal and the Greeks' wait-and-seeness made Philip V feel deeply desperate. Where were the reinforcements? Over and over, the army of the ally Ptolemy Kingdom was far away on the other side of the Mediterranean. When can it arrive depends not only on the other party's attitude, but also on whether the sea allows it.

At this time, although sea navigation on the eastern coast of the Mediterranean was already relatively common, its timeliness and safety were not completely guaranteed. Considering the complexity of the maritime transport army, it is still difficult to say whether Ptolemy Pharaoh could agree to support it.

As for the Qin people?

Philip V had great hope at first, and perhaps made a bunch of short-selling promises, but almost two months passed. According to the messenger's return, the Qin people's momentum in training troops on the Anatolian Peninsula was very strong, but there was almost no substantial action.

In mid-December, with the strong lobbying of the Macedonian envoy, a small army of less than 3,000 people crossed the sea and landed on the shore. However, now the Thracians rebelled, and the fate of this small Qin army was probably destroyed in the depths of the mountain.

——.

Trapped in the city and with no information, Philip V was desperate. Scipio, the commander of the Roman army who surrounded him, was not much better.

Persistence is victory!

This sentence was originally suitable for the 50,000 Roman soldiers who fought in the eastern expedition. At the beginning of the war, the Roman army, which was smooth sailing due to Scipio's unexpected tactics, is now due to the obstruction of the rear consul Fabian, the Roman army gradually lost its initial aura, and the bad weather made the Romans in the outer city of Pera miserable.

Macedonians trapped in the lonely city.

Philip V did not have the courage to leave the city, and he was like a turtle shrank, making the Romans unable to find a chance to fight him even if they wanted to fight him.

Sinnosefali.

This fortress is now an important supply site in the rear of the Roman army, where Scipio's central army is located.

"How come the damn yellow-skinned monkey jumped out at this time? And those Thracian idiots can't even defend the city. It's so stupid." Roman commander Scipio shouted and cursed with a low face.

His expression was as thick as the weather in this month, and it was too thick to melt. The war to siege the capital of Macedonia has lasted for two months. The Macedonian defenders in Pera were gradually moving towards death, and in the periphery, Philip V's so-called allies began to shake one by one.

Victory is just around the corner.

Just add a little more force and push it hard. But at this critical moment, Scipio heard the news that Constantinople was lost and occupied by the Qin army.

"General, the Thracians reported that the Qin people used a strange weapon that could make loud noises, and the city wall was blown down almost instantly. Could it be that the Qin people really had new weapons in their hands that we didn't know?" said a strong and burly man beside Scipio.

"Peterus, do you know what you are talking about? New weapons? How is this possible? With the wisdom of my Great Rome, it is impossible to invent anything that can collapse the bluestone wall in one go. It is clearly the Thracian barbarians who underestimated the enemy and allowed the Qin people to take advantage of the loopholes." Among the Roman generals, confident people accounted for the majority. The strong man named Peterus was obviously a minority.

"Petus, in order to confirm your guess, now, I order your 10,000 soldiers to retreat from the city of Pera, and then detour around Lake Ohrid to meet the Qin people for a while, how about?" Scipio's voice sounded, and overwhelmed the chaotic Roman generals.

"I will summon the soldiers here, and I, Peterus, will not disappoint the general." The strong man tightened his expression and shouted.

Scipio nodded and silently watched Peterus leave. Scipio wanted to believe the voices questioned by the Roman generals, but deep in his heart, it seemed like a voice was shouting to him. All this was true, and what the Thracians said was true.

Peterus was a brave general he trusted. His 10,000 soldiers were composed of the Gauls from the French area. His combat effectiveness was extraordinary. If the Qin people really had any new weapons, Peterus would try it out and let the generals of the Roman tribes wake up.

——.

Rome and the Qin Dynasty.

It's getting closer and closer.

This made all the nations located in the war vortex area panic, and the Thracians unfortunately became the first victim, which made their old rival, the Greeks, feel deeply uneasy while gloating.

Ancient civilization.

It has become a history of remembrance. The Greeks' free and loose city-state alliance has no advantage in front of more rigorous and disciplined opponents.

The open and secret struggle between more than 1,500 islands, the Crete League in the center of the Southern Aegean Sea, the Spartan League of the Peloponnese Peninsula, and the Tilo League of Athens made the Greeks' internal friction even more. After Alexander's conquest, the Greeks' final glory no longer existed.

Now they exist only as a vassal of the Kingdom of Macedonia, and before Philip V the Greeks were even worse than the Thracians.
