In the camp, it was as cold as ice.
"Why don't you have anything to say?"
Sun Quan's green eyes were as deep as the sea, and he swept away, and his indifferent expression made the generals suddenly feel a lot of pressure.
"Lu Fengxian, you say" "Your Majesty" "Pan Wushuang, what about you?"
"Me" "Guo Fengxiao, come up with an idea" "Your Majesty, Minister" "Zhuge Kongming, aren't you a superman of wisdom, let's talk about it" “” "Hey" Sun Quan looked at the faces and couldn't help but let out a long sigh: "Have you all lost confidence in me, our soldiers, and even yourself?"
It's not a matter of competence.
All of you here are famous generals and military advisors who fought in that troubled era, they are not those who have been killed in a hundred battles and in the mountains of blood and corpses, their ability is beyond doubt, even in this critical situation, their ability will never be affected.
It's a matter of confidence.
After successive defeats, they gathered more than a million main forces and slaughtered them with great momentum, but now they have suffered a rout, with heavy casualties, and there are only hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses left.
Never before have they been so badly defeated.
All of them have been shrouded in the shadow of failure, and at this moment they are thinking about how to escape.
"The end of the minister will be terrified" The generals and staff officers suddenly had solemn faces, and they all leaned down, not daring to raise their heads to meet Sun Quan's blade-like eyes.
"The Great Wu Dynasty was established in the world of human life like a mustard, we are a piece of heaven fought with fists and blood, on the battlefield, even if the soldiers of the Great Wu are extremely brave, after all, it is difficult to defeat the will of heaven, and there are victories and defeats."
Sun Quan stood up, his voice was fierce, and the whole camp was loud: "Win, we go to enjoy the glory of victory, lose, we suffer the consequences of defeat, this is the belief that the soldiers of Dawu should have, there is no undefeated god of war in the world, only the undefeated will to fight, we lost this battle, I admit it, but I ask myself if I have not been disappointed in myself, I have not been disappointed in the court of Dawu, are you disappointed?"
Every word of his is like a morning bell, dispelling the dark negative emotions in the hearts of these generals.
"The last general is terrified, he has fought the world for decades, but he is not as good as His Majesty on the battlefield" Lu Bu stood up, and his voice was solemn: "The last general is willing to fight with the Roman barbarians to the last soldier, and he will never say defeat."
"Never Say Never" "Never Say Never" Sun Quan's enlightenment is still very effective for the emotions of the generals, at least it can make them quickly recover some fighting spirit and fighting spirit.
But that doesn't change the situation on the battlefield today.
Defeat is defeat.
The overall situation is like this, and the morale, intrigue, and resoluteness of everything else are superfluous at this time, and I am afraid that they will not be able to change the situation on the battlefield today.
Therefore, it is still necessary for them to divide their forces.
"The division of troops is inevitable" Sun Quan saw that they had recovered a lot of fighting spirit, and he was also relieved, and returned to the point: "I have decided that our army will break through in three ways."
"The Soldiers Are Divided into Three Ways" When the generals heard this, they were a little strange.
"Shiyuan" "In" Pang Tong and a few lieutenants of staff hung up a rough topographical map of the Roman territory.
"First of all, the first hurdle we have to break through is here, Florence" Sun Quan pointed to the city closest to Wu's army.
This has blocked the retreat of the Wu army.
"At present, we don't know the strength of troops here, but I believe that there are a lot of soldiers and horses here."
Sun Quan said in a deep voice: "We must break through, and the time must be fast, because we don't have much time."
"Your Majesty, the last general is invited to fight" Ju Yi stood up, and his voice was firm: "Now only the main force of my Central Army is the best, if you want to fight quickly, you must let us go" "Good" Sun Quan nodded and agreed: "You immediately lead your troops to go, before we pull out the camp, no matter what, we must conquer Florence" "No" Ju Yi stood up, left with the chief general and staff of the Central Army, and began to seize the time to beat the drums and gather troops, wanting to march into Florence.
"After breaking through Fiorentina, we will be faced with two paths" Sun Quan pointed to the northern part of the Italian province on the map, with two ways out of the east and west, one from Milan to the west, and the other from the Dolomites fortress to the east, to Pannonia.
"All the way back, break through from the fortress of the Dolomites, from Pannonia to Thrace, and then cross the sea into the Byzantine city-state, with the Byzantine city-state as a fortress, to at least preserve our gains in the eastern frontiers" "On the other hand, to the west, break through from the city of Milan and go straight to Gaul, Gaul has the main force of our third theater of operations, as long as the division is met, immediately withdraw the troops, return to the province of Britain, and hold Britain" "As for the third route, I decided to send a road to break through from here, and then withdraw my troops along the coast of the Roman Sea, and go directly to Greece, where I will join Zhou Tai's Sea Eagle Legion."
Sun Quan personally marked out three ways for the generals.
The first two roads are not surprising to them, after all, they proposed to divide the soldiers into two roads before, which is what they refer to.
But the third way, which is somewhat foreign to them.
It was from Venice in the northeast of what was later Italy, and then along the coastline of the Mediterranean Sea to the Greek provinces.
"Your Majesty, this third way" "Jinyiwei has already explored clearly" Sun Quan said in a deep voice: "And Greece, when I was in the Byzantine city-state, I sent a team of troops and horses, and it is estimated that it has been nested in our hands at this time, this may be the best route to withdraw troops, and the most important thing is the judgment of the Roman army on us, in their opinion, we must take the east and west roads, so I will not think that we have a third way to withdraw troops."
When the generals heard this, their hearts moved, and they looked at Sun Quan with some admiration.
It seems that Sun Quan had already taken precautions and was ready for defeat when he was pulling, so he had already arranged a retreat for himself.
"Your Majesty" Pan Feng stepped out and said: "I led the first war zone, returned along the same route, broke through the Dolomites fortress, went straight to Pannonia, forcibly penetrated Thrace, crossed the sea and went straight to Byzantium."
He Pan Wushuang took refuge in the Great Wu Dynasty for many years, came from the Sun Jian era, ups and downs, once the official position of the head of the military aircraft, listed as the head of the military generals, to the court, to Sun Quan, he asked himself to be loyal.
So when he is loyal to Sun Quan, he will not back down.
"You've got it all figured" When Sun Quan heard this, his face was expressionless: "This road must be a road that the Roman army is chasing and fighting fiercely, with many difficulties, and if you are not careful, the whole army will be annihilated."
"Your Majesty, the general died in a hundred battles, and for us, it is also an honor to die on the battlefield," Pan Feng replied.
"Good" Sun Quan became very indifferent and calm at this time, and he agreed.
Because he knows that there are things he can't do.

I can only watch my subordinates do it.
He was the Great Wu monarch.
"Your Majesty, I will lead the Second War Zone to the west," Zhou Yu said.
Although his vitality in the second war zone was greatly damaged, and even the commander-in-chief of the war zone, Zu Mao, was killed in battle, but his strength was still there.
"We can think of it, and the Romans can also think of it" Sun Quan said: "Gaul Province has the main force of our third theater of war, if they have judged that our main force will break through to the west, then your road will become the most dangerous road" Pursuit within Roman territory was most advantageous to the Roman army.
Once they concentrate their main force in pursuit, they don't need to force them down, even if they drag you down, they can drag you to death.
"Your Majesty, our lives are all picked up from the battlefield, and it is Commander Zu Mao who sacrificed his life to let us live" Zhou Yu looked solemn: "We can't live up to the trust of Commander Zu Mao, covering Your Majesty to leave Rome and return to the Central Plains, is our biggest task, if we can attract the main force of Rome to the west, it is also a good thing" Sun Quan turned his face away, his eyes suddenly didn't dare to face the generals in the camp, but his eyes were red when he looked at the map.
In times of crisis, people's hearts are revealed.
There are so many martyrs in Dawu.
How fortunate he is that Sun Zhongmou can be so loyal and support the great cause.
"Now that the generals have made up their minds" Lu Bu faced the generals and said: "A certain Lu Bu is willing to swear to all the monarchs that as long as Lu Bu does not die, he will never let His Majesty be harmed in the slightest."
He is the fiercest general.
Therefore, he will personally lead the Central Army and the Praetorian Guard to escort Sun Quan on the third path.
It looks like it's a safe road.
But the tide of the war is changing every day, and as long as they are within Roman territory, there is no completely safe route to withdraw their troops, and if they are discovered along the way, they may face destruction.
"All Gentlemen Encourage Together" Lu Bu drank heavily.
"All Gentlemen Encourage Together" The generals are united, and the sound is like thunder.
Ciudad Florosa.
Night.
The moon is shining and the stars are dotted.
On the city walls, the soldiers of the First Legion under the command of the Thracian Legion were patrolling.
Legion Angera, a Thracian man of bearish physique, stood on top of the city and looked out towards the city of Rome: "I don't know how the battle is going" He had not received a message from the city of Rome for three days.
Three days ago, the main general William had sent a message that they had besieged the main force of the Eastern Devils in the city of Rome, but there was no news after that.
He was in a hurry.
But his mission was to defend Florence.
"Legionnaire, it's getting late, you better go and get some rest," one of the captains advised.
"I don't know how it is, I can't sleep" Angela said: "The Eastern Demon is extremely ferocious, to be honest, I am still a little worried" "Legion Leader, these Eastern Demons are already a group of brutes trapped in the arena by us, no matter how hard they struggle, they will not escape" "Let's hope" Angela relaxed a little, left the walls, and went to rest in the city.
When he didn't know it, at this time, the central army of the Wu army had already moved to the distance of less than three miles below the city, and was eyeing the city, preparing to break through the city.
The Central Army Corps is known as the first main force of the Wu Army.
It is also the best preserved main force in this battle.
"How to break the city" Ju Yi's gloomy eyes stared at the city in front of him.
"I have a plan" It was Pang Tong who spoke.
Pang Tong was worried that the Central Army would not be able to break through the city, and if the time dragged on for a long time, the battle behind would be very difficult, so after the meeting, he personally caught up and gave advice to Ju Yi.
"Say" "Fraudulent" "How to cheat" "Isn't there a group of captives who didn't kill them before, and now they come in handy" Pang Tong's eyes narrowed slightly, when they were fighting before, they captured more than a thousand Roman troops, and let him bring them, just to open the city gate, his voice was cold, and said: "I bet that the city has not yet known about the changes in the city of Rome, so they don't know that our main force is ready to break through, if we drive the captives with a small force of soldiers and horses and approach the city, it will definitely not cause them to move, and they will not see death without help, as long as they open the city to respond, we will rush up, desperately seize the city gate, once successfully capture the city gate, conquer the city, That's it."
They have more than 100,000 elite troops, and there are only tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in the city.
"Good" Ju Yi agreed, and he personally led a force of several thousand soldiers and horses to drive more than a thousand Roman prisoners behind him, approaching the city gate.
The captain guarding the city wall really hit the plan.
When they found that there were only a few thousand Eastern Demons under the city, they thought that it was just a scout force that was chasing and killing them, so they held tens of thousands of main forces and were not afraid of thousands of Eastern Demons, opened the city gate and responded, wanting to kill this shareholder demon.
But when they opened the city gate, they were forcibly seized by Ju Yi, Ju Yi is also a fierce general, strong and unmatched, only with a few thousand soldiers and horses, after seizing the city gate, in the face of tens of thousands of Roman troops, held on for half an hour.
At this time, Pang Tong led the main force to rush up and successfully captured the city gate.
When the regimental commander Angela reacted, the first legion of the Thracian army had already been killed, and Florrosa was destined to be unable to hold it, so he had to lead the remnants of the army, go out of the northern city, and go north to the Dolomites fortress.
As soon as the phoenix chirped, it was no less than Wolong borrowing arrows, and the Wu army successfully seized the first pass that stood in their way.
A day later, Sun Quan led the main force of Wu's army into Florence.
At this time, the main force of the city of Rome had been reorganized, gathering the Iron Legion, the Guards Legion, the Gallic Legion, the Crusader Legion, the four elite remnants after the bloody battle, and the main force of the three legions under William, and some people who had also been recruited to transport logistics, which had nearly 800,000 troops, under the personal leadership of Prince Caracalla, entered the town of Pizar.
"The main force of the Eastern Devil has left" Caracalla is now an uncrowned emperor in the eyes of the generals, so his momentum is also changing, and he has the demeanor of his father.

"It should have been less than a day since I left" Chacks asked his soldiers to inspect the place where the Wu army was stationed, and said.
"If we step up our pursuit, we may be able to block them under the city of Florence," William's eyes lit up with murderous intent.
"Newspaper" "Come in" "The news has just come that the Eastern Devil has entered Florence" "What" William frowned: "Isn't Florence guarded by the First Thracian Army led by Angela?"
"The First Thracian Army has been completely annihilated, and General Angela has led thousands of remnants of his army to flee to the fortress of the Dolomites," the spies reported.
"Damn Angela" William's eyes were cold: "I look up to him" "What now" Caracalla does not have the power of his father Severus, at this juncture, he has no control over the soldiers at all, it is just a name, and the real decision still depends on the opinions of Chaks and William, the two commanders who control the army.
"They can't run" Chax said: "We still have the city of Milan and the fortress of Dolomites, and there is still a chance to block them" "But now it's more important to judge which direction they want to break through" William said in a deep voice.
"This is an important question," Caracalla also nodded.
"Report to His Royal Highness the Prince, according to information from the Gallic side, in the Gallic province there is a large part of the main force of the Eastern Devils," said the intelligence officer, An'er.
"You mean, they will break through to the west" Dio whispered.
"Very likely" "I'd prefer them to go east," Macrinus whispered, "they are more familiar with the east road, and instead of risking west, it's better to fight east."
The generals also fell into thought, thinking about whether the main force of the Eastern Demon would break through to the east or to the west. t1706231537:
