Chapter 600 Winning more with less, Rome has a deep understanding
"Yes, this time, the aid army sent by Daqin to Rome is 5 horses."
Ying Yu nodded slightly.
Ying Yu's eyes were bright, and he could see little Scipio's disappointment.
However, Ying Yu was not at all surprised by this.
After all, in order to carry the firearms battalion and heavy artillery this time, the reinforcements sent to support Rome were basically allocated by the garrison at the Lantian Camp.
As the capital of the Great Qin, Xianyang City is also the military and political center of the Great Qin. Not only do more than half of the high-ranking officials and nobles of the Great Qin live in it, but Ying Zheng and Ying Yu, the two most distinguished people in the Great Qin, are also here.
Especially Ying Yu, as he continued to show his supernatural talents, he is now a real pillar of Daqin.
It is no exaggeration to say that once there is a problem with Xianyang City, once there is a problem with Ying Yu, not only will the development of Daqin be extremely seriously affected, but most of the industries in the country will be closed down and paralyzed, and even the whole country may be destroyed. Worry of destruction!
The Lantian camp is a barrier to protect Xianyang, and as the largest training ground in the Great Qin, the soldiers of the Qin army stationed in the Lantian camp are all elite soldiers, and they are also the most outstanding among all the troops of the Great Qin It exists, and the number has reached as many as 50, ranking the most among all the army garrisons in the Great Qin Dynasty.
But then again, with Daqin's current incomparably prosperous national strength, coupled with its unparalleled military strength, it is basically impossible for any country to dare to invade.
Taking a step back, even if there is such a reckless and daring country that takes action against Daqin, it is absolutely impossible for them to attack Daqin's Xianyang City based on the strength gap between other countries in the world and Daqin's army.
In other words, the 50 Qin soldiers in the Lantian camp were basically idle, and they were usually used to maintain the order of life in the Qin Dynasty and strengthen the legal system around Xianyang.
Although there were 50 idle soldiers, Daqin only sent [-] soldiers to support them. This seems to be a little small, and it is completely reasonable for little Scipio to be so disappointed.
"His Majesty the First Emperor, His Royal Highness Crown Prince Ying Yu, there is a saying that I don't know whether foreign ministers should say it or not."
Little Scipio hesitated for a while, and finally asked.
"You can say it anyway."
Ying Zheng said generously.
"Foreign ministers believe that it may not be enough for the Shang Kingdom to send only [-] troops to Rome for support. Maybe it will be safer to send more soldiers and horses."
Little Scipio took a deep breath and said what he wanted to say.
As soon as his words came out, it naturally caused an uproar on the high platform.
Not only did the accompanying ministers look a little displeased, but even Ying Zheng couldn't help frowning.
Only Ying Yu still stood there calmly, as if he didn't feel much about what little Scipio said.
"Little Sidious, what do you mean by this? Your Majesty heard that Rome was in danger, and considering the relationship between Rome and our country, he immediately ordered General Wang Zhi to assemble an army of fifty thousand and prepare to go to your Rome for a thousand miles. assistance."
"In the end, it's okay if you don't feel grateful. Now you dare to question the decision of our Majesty and His Royal Highness Prince Ying Yu, and dislike my Daqin for sending too few troops?"
Nesten raised his voice with a stern face, with a gesture of asking questions.
The other ministers also looked at him with questioning eyes, apparently labeling him as ungrateful in their hearts.
"Daqin is willing to send charcoal in the snow to send reinforcements when Rome is in danger. It's too late for my subordinates to be grateful. How could they dislike the fact that Shangguo sent too few troops!"
Little Scipio immediately knelt down on the ground and explained to himself in fear.
"The main reason is that judging from the letter passed to me by my uncle, the Hannibal Carthaginian army that invaded Rome this time was as many as 20."
"And they are all brave and good at fighting, and their fighting power is very strong. This minister is not alarmist, but in the recent battles, the soldiers of Carthage beat the soldiers carefully cultivated by me in Rome. It is not at all. their opponents."
"Of course the foreign ministers know that with the military strength of the Great Qin Kingdom, the soldiers are definitely stronger than the Carthaginian army led by Hannibal in terms of combat effectiveness and tactical formation."
"But the gap in numbers is really too big. Even with the [-] soldiers from the upper kingdom plus the remaining troops of my Roman army, it's only [-]."
"The reason why my subordinates suggested that Shangguo send more soldiers is mainly to reduce unnecessary losses for Daqin Shangguo."
"Furthermore, with the current status and strength of the Great Qin State, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the most powerful country in the world. If the soldiers of the Great Qin State suffered a disadvantage in front of Hannibal's Carthaginian army because of the disadvantage in numbers, it would be a bit lost. The face of Shangguo."
"If the Shang Kingdom can send more soldiers and horses, it will not only prevent more soldiers from being killed in battle, but also promote the majesty of the Great Qin Shang Kingdom. Wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone?"
Little Scipio bit the bullet and said these words.
Although it is said that he has never left Daqin in every word and sentence, as if everything was considered for Daqin, anyone with a discerning eye can tell that the purpose of little Scipio's doing all this is for Rome.
But little Scipio has no choice. In order to protect his country, he can only put his own life in jeopardy, risking the anger of Ying Zheng and Ying Yu, and strive for greater security for Rome as much as possible.
After all, every time Daqin added an additional aid force, the greater the confidence and the faster the speed of repelling the Carthaginian army, the fewer cities they would fall to Rome.
"We appreciate your consideration for me, Daqin."
"However, the number of reinforcements for my Daqin was discussed after several deliberations by my father, me, and the ministers. Naturally, it cannot be easily changed."
"Also, now that our Daqin reinforcements have assembled, I believe you have seen it just now. It can be said that the arrow is on the string and has to be launched."
"As for whether my [-] soldiers from Great Qin can defeat Hannibal's Carthaginian army, don't worry about that."
"Although there is a huge difference in the number of soldiers between 20 and [-], it's not like my Great Qin has created such a record. Regarding this point, I believe you, Rome, should know better than anyone else."
