Chapter 1078: The Famous Roman General Aetius
On the battlefield of the national war, Chutian's legion avoided the Egyptian legion and the Persian legion, and began to march towards Pompey, one of the three emperors of the Roman Empire.
Chutian agreed to the Persian emperor Ardashir's request for the time being, instead of going to war with Ardashir, he turned to attack Pompey.
The western lords have a basis for cooperation in the fifth national war. Chu Tian is uneasy about this, and thinks that he can consider accepting an ally in this competition for the holy commander.
Pompey participated in the Zurich secret meeting of the Western lords, and Chutian regarded Pompey as an enemy.
"Pompey, one of the three giants of Rome, once surpassed Caesar in power."
Chu Tian knew the former Roman Big Three in history.
The former Roman Big Three, Crassus, was good at speculation and business, but not very good at fighting. Pompey, conquered the Eastern provinces for Rome. Caesar, conquered Gaul.
When Pompey debuted, Caesar was not that strong.
However, in "The Lord", the NPC lord Caesar and the player lord Constantine overwhelm Pompey, but Pompey's power is the smallest.
So Chutian decided to attack Pompey's army.
"The cavalry of the Han Empire is approaching us!"
Pompey learned from the Roman scout cavalry that the legions of the Han Empire were marching towards him, and his face was gloomy.
Pompeii was unlucky and attacked the city, but Chutian came to him on his own initiative.
Ten Roman and Gothic generals assembled under Pompey's command, and Roman generals such as Brutus, Aetius, and Pompey the Younger were all present.
"Are we going to fight the Han army to the death?"
Pompey asked ten generals for their opinion.
The city in front of him was about to be captured, and Pompey was really unwilling to give up the city.
However, the Han army was coming fiercely, and Pompey had no idea.
Caesar and Constantine were absent. Although there were many famous generals in the Roman Empire, the Roman Empire could not reach its peak because of the dispersion and the fact that the generals of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire were recruited by other lords.
The famous Roman general Aetius, who fought against Attila the whip of God, said to Pompey: "Your Majesty, let the Han army attack the strong city,
Wait until the Han army has suffered heavy losses and is exhausted, shall we fight it again? Defeat it. "
Pompey was still hesitating: "This is indeed a good idea. But the timing is difficult to grasp? What if the Han army breaks through the city, and the famous generals in the city are plundered by the Han army? The army may not be able to defeat it."
Aetius reminded Pompey: "Your Majesty seems to have forgotten? The secret meeting in Zurich..."
"It makes sense."
Pompey immediately realized what Aetius meant.
So Pompey issued an order to withdraw his troops, gave up attacking the city and moved in other directions.
Chutian's legion is like a plague? But when they see Chutian's legion, these lords can't wait to go as far as they can.
All the lords who can persist in "The Lord" for seventeen years are not wily.
Without confidence, these lords will not go to war easily.
Did the Egyptian legion avoid Chutian's edge? The Persian legion asked for peace from Chutian? The Roman legion saw Chutian's arrival, so they voluntarily gave up the siege and waited for an opportunity.
Chutian accepted the favor of the Persian emperor Ardashir and came to the city.
"Pompey escaped, if it was Caesar or Constantine? They might not be so panicked."
Chu Tian was a little surprised.
Pompey was so arrogant that he didn't even dare to fight him head-on.
Chutian was already prepared to defeat Pompey after a fierce battle, but Pompey retreated...
Xia Liang said: "According to the information provided by Roman players? Pompey recruited a group of Roman civilized generals and a group of barbarian generals? Especially the Goths. Among them, the most famous general under Pompey's command is 'The Last Romans 'Aetius."
"The last Roman" is not just Aetius? It is the title of some people with the traditional spirit of ancient Rome in Roman history? The passing of these people shows the disappearance of this spirit.
Famous Roman generals and emperors with this title, as well as Belisarius, Stilicho, Justinian I and others.
Aetius is one of the famous figures, because his military and political ability enabled the Western Roman Empire to defeat internal and external enemies many times and avoided the premature demise of the Western Roman Empire.
The opponent of Aetius in the same era was the Visigoth king Diodoric I. Later, Aetius joined forces with the Visigoths to deal with Attila, the "scourge of God".
Aetius and Attila were both friends and rivals.
Compared with a simple general, Aetius, who is good at commanding soldiers and horses, and good at diplomacy, is undoubtedly a more terrifying opponent.
The Western Continent is different from the unified Han Empire. The kings of the Western Continent attach great importance to diplomacy, and never lack cooperation, betrayal and use of each other.
Chu Tian infers that Aetius' ability is to drive barbarian soldiers to fight. It is somewhat similar to the military generals of the Western Regions Protectorate of the Han Empire and the Generals of the Anxi Protectorate of the Tang Empire, but they are very different.
In addition to Aetius, Pompey also had a group of famous generals.
Roman civilization has indeed produced many famous generals. If you add Eastern Rome, there are almost two thousand years.
"Pompeii probably won't be willing to give up a city that is about to be acquired. He dispatched the iron eagle scout cavalry to go around and check if there are Pompey's allies nearby."
Chu Tian thinks that things are not that simple.
Since Aetius, the Roman general recruited by Pompey, has the ability of diplomacy, and what seems to be an agreement between the Western lords, Chutian has reason to suspect that Pompey will join hands with other lords.
On this sub-island, the Egyptian army is besieging the second city, and the Persian army is besieging the third city.
Chutian had captured the first city, and took away Pompeii's fourth city, so only the fifth city remained.
For the remaining lords without cities, there is a possibility of union.
After sending cavalry to investigate, Chu Tian ordered the craftsmen to build trebuchets and prepare for another city.
The leader of the fourth city is not a general of the ancient Chinese civilization, but...
"It is very likely that he is a general of the Persian civilization."
According to the armor system of the defenders, Chutian can quickly distinguish the civilization to which the opponent belongs.
Chu Tian thought for a while. It seems that his power has not yet recruited any generals from the Persian civilization, so if he captures this city, he may recruit the first Persian general.
In the Persian civilization, what Chutian covets most is the two absolutely elite legions of the Undead Army and the Holy Meteor Cavalry.
This general who should have belonged to Pompey is about to fall into the hands of Chu Tian.
This is why Pompeo is unwilling.
The fifth city of this sub-island was already broken by the aged Julius Caesar. Octavian, Antony, and Lepidus attacked the city and drove straight in!
"Your Majesty, Pompey sent envoy Aetius."
"Bring Aetius to me."
"yes."
Soon, the famous Roman general Aetius came to Caesar and said to Caesar: "Your Majesty Caesar, we have encountered the legion of the Han Empire. They are about to attack the second city. Please send troops to help."
"The Han Empire won Chu Zimou so quickly?"
Caesar defeated a civilized lord and captured another city. After all, it was a step too late. Chu Tian was already attacking the second city.
"What is Pompeo thinking?"
"Please His Majesty Caesar send troops to prevent the Han army from attacking the city."
"He's not easy to deal with."
Caesar fell silent.
In the last national war, a group of western lords teamed up to suppress Chutian by virtue of their superior force, and they were tricked by Chutian. This time, it was only him and Pompey who had little chance of winning.
