The geographical location of Mesopotamia is very important.
It can be said that it can open the eastern gate of the entire Roman Empire.
To the north of Mesopotamia is Armenia, and further up is the same line of Cengcasus.
Below Mesopotamia are Damascus, Nabatean, and Syria.
Qingcang pointed to the sand table and said: "Mesopotamia is only our first battle, and the next ones we have to fight are Damascus, Nabatea and Syria.
As long as we pass here, we can control the entire Mediterranean of the Roman Empire."
The sea area.
At this time, let Commander Zhao go around the Red Sea and pass through Nabati to reach the Mediterranean Sea, where we will establish a base and spread slowly. " In the 2nd century AD, the Roman Empire was unprecedentedly powerful.
The Mediterranean was jokingly called the "little bathtub of the Romans" at the time, and judging from the map, it was indeed the case.
At this time Liu Bei asked: "When will we occupy those three places?"
Yan Liang also asked: "I think we have to be on guard in the Caucasus Mountains to prevent them from sneaking up on us through there."
"We will start heading west tomorrow.
As for the sneak attack, we are afraid that they will not come.
If they dare to come, they will never come back, which will save us a lot of trouble."
As a result, everyone said nothing and just did what Qing Cang wanted.
That night, the Chinese army rested in the hinterland of Mesopotamia, waiting for the light of day to move on to the next step.
Next, Qingcang will occupy the above-mentioned places at lightning speed.
If that is the case, the entire east side of the Roman Empire will be completely defeated.
If we persist at this speed, the entire Roman Empire will fall in less than a month.
At the same time, news came from Zhao Zilong.
The warships of the Chinese Legion encountered the Roman Empire warships in the Red Sea and completely kept them within the Red Sea.
In this way, Zhao Zilong severely damaged the Roman Empire's fleet.
It can be said that this victory directly destroyed the threat of the Roman Empire from the Red Sea.
As for the north, it has not yet encountered the northern armies of the Roman Empire.
In the early hours of the morning, news from the front line was received.
Hundreds of thousands of troops from the Roman Empire were about to reach the border of the Parthian Empire and were ready to launch an attack at any time.
Qing Cang ordered Dian Wei to bring 2,000 aircraft to attack them, and sent Huang Zhong to lead 1,000 tanks and 1,000 chariots to cut off the enemy's supply routes.
Once the supply is cut off, it will be like duckweed without roots.
What awaits them is the road to destruction.
The next day, the Chinese Army marched westward.
Wherever they went, all enemies were surrendered.
They destroyed everything and kept advancing.
In the afternoon of the next day, they occupied Damascus and Nabatean, and set up a thousand powerful cannons towards the Nile River border, just waiting for Zhao Zilong's fleet to pass through the Red Sea and cross the connection between the continents. to build a waterway base to reach the port in the Damascus area.
All this happened so fast that before Caracalla had time to react, he had already lost three territories, and this speed was still continuing.
The continuous advancement of the Chinese Legion made Caracalla very anxious.
Regarding this legion from the east, the army he led was like nothing in front of them.
It can be said that it was forced by the Chinese legion.
This puzzled him very much, so he sent another envoy.
By the time the messengers arrived at Damascus and Nabatean, even Syria had been completely occupied.
Based on the territory of the Roman Empire at that time, the Chinese Legion now occupies nearly one-tenth of their territory.
The envoy soon entered the place occupied by the Chinese Legion and saw Qing Cang.
At this time, Qingcang was sitting on the main seat, very majestic.
On the other hand, the envoys of the Roman Empire seemed to be careful at all times.
The envoy said: "Dear King of China, why did you come to invade my Roman Empire?"
Qingcang said casually: "Ask Vorogis about this, he will give you the answer."

Vorogis VI said: "Caracalla's constant invasion of our Parthian Empire makes me very tired every day, and I rely on my great king to come to attack your Roman Empire."
When the envoy heard about it, it turned out to be Vologis VI, the king of the Parthian Empire.
At this time, he had returned to Qingcang, who was attached to the Huaxia Kingdom.
No wonder he dared to attack the Roman Empire so blatantly.
Qingcang was standing up for Vologis VI, so he was famous for his success.
The messenger said: "I have been ordered to come to sue for peace, and I have prepared hundreds of carts of gold, treasures, 10,000 beauties, and 10,000 slaves.
I am asking for reconciliation."
Qingcang didn't reply to him, but asked others.
"What do you think?"
Zhang Fei said gruffly: "Hey, messenger, if we conquer your Roman Empire, wouldn't these gold treasures be ours?
And the beauties in the whole country are also ours.
You said, your reconciliation seems to be of no benefit. " Guan Yu also joined in, and he said: "The third brother is right, this Roman Empire is our territory, everything will be ours, your king will also bow to me, Emperor Qing, and we will continue to What beautiful slave of yours?”
"this" The messenger was at a loss for words.
He really couldn't find any words to refute the two men's questions.
Because that's the truth.
The messenger looked at Qingcang and said, "My king comes with sincerity.
He apologizes for his previous unreasonableness."
Yan Liang said: "Since I want to apologize, it is better to surrender directly, so as not to become a subjugated king."
The messenger came to speak as a peace seeker, so he tried to lower his posture as much as possible and did not dare to argue with everyone here.
He looked at Qingcang again, trying to get some permission from Qingcang.
"My commander and army commander didn't agree.
As their king, I naturally didn't agree.
Go back and tell your king, let him be prepared to be defeated.
If he surrenders in advance, maybe I can spare his life. " Qing Cang is a man who wants to stand at the top of the world.
He will definitely not reconcile with the Roman Empire.
Since he is going to war, he must do something, such as destroying the entire empire and making the entire empire his own.
"Go back and tell your king that I will give him seven days to think about it.
After seven days, I can't see any surrender, so I have to let you see the power of my Chinese Legion."
Of course, if you can avoid fighting, try not to fight.
Letting them surrender is of course the best way.
"yes" Qingcang added one last sentence.
"Wait a minute, you can't take anything away with you."
The envoy left the territory of the Chinese Legion in disgrace and headed for Rome
