"I want to have a drink with the Han envoy." Piponianus said with a smile.
"Okay, today is New Year's Eve, which is an important festival that represents farewell to the old and welcoming the new, a new beginning, and a renewal of everything. Cheers to the prosperity of our two countries." Jian Yong looked at the other party with peaceful eyes, and the other party also saw Jian Yong.
With clear eyes, you know what the other person means.
"Okay." Piponianus asked no more questions. Jian Yong's words were in Roman, so Piponianus understood the importance of this festival.
"Tomorrow is the New Year in our calendar. If you come, we will have a gift for you." Jian Yong said suddenly with a smile.
"Ha, is it New Year's Eve and Chinese New Year?" Piponannus looked at the beaming Jian Yong and already understood what kind of festival this was.
Jian Yong made it very clear about the meaning of New Year's Eve. Romans also celebrated New Year's Eve. Although the time for celebrating New Year's Eve differed from place to place, this festival was very important and related to everyone's life in the coming year.
In my impression, the Kauki people came and attacked the Romans during the Roman New Year, and then they became extinct, well, extinct.
So generally speaking, if there is not much hatred between the two parties, it is best not to flirt with others during other people's holidays. If you come to visit during the Chinese New Year, it will generally be over.
After Piponannus and Jian Yong had a few drinks, they returned to Severus with the news. After Severus learned the news, he canceled the previous plan. There was no need to let the other party go to the capital every year.
It's not a good life, and it's not like An Xi's deathly hatred, just to give face to the Han Dynasty.
"A complete set of tableware will be given to the Han room tomorrow morning." Severus thought for a while and ordered someone to prepare a gift for the Han room.
Fabio, Novelli and others breathed a sigh of relief. Now they don't have to use it to death. Otherwise, if they really mess around like they said before, they might kneel down, then they will be embarrassed and thrown to their grandma's house.
Yes, given a few days to buffer, they will definitely solve the problem.
That night, various cheers would come from the Han military camp from time to time, making the Romans clearly realize how important this festival was to the Han Dynasty.
On the two rivers side, Zhuge Liang was relieved after receiving the letter of credence from Rome. Rome expressed its willingness to cease war for six days, and Zhuge Liang could let the soldiers have a good year. He first opened the warehouse and had a good meal. There is basically no food in this world.
If there is something that a good meal can't solve, keep eating!
"General Gao, are you still thinking?" Pan Zhang looked at Gao Lan sitting on the ground and asked slowly. The Sun family has a kind of recognition of the Yuan family, so there is a natural goodwill between the courtiers of the two families, so
Compared with others, these two parties are more harmonious.
"Well, the more I know, the bigger the gap becomes." Gao Lan opened his eyes and said with disappointment, "But fortunately, at least as I continue to practice, my understanding of the arms is getting deeper and deeper, and there is still hope.
"
"Actually, you still have one group of super elites with dual talents, but not all of them are here, right?" Pan Zhang asked after a while.
Gao Lan paused for a moment and nodded. The first reserve was the heavy crossbowmen. However, there were not many of them during the Battle of Yuan and Liu. Otherwise, they would definitely fight with the first dead soldiers. Of course, the number now is also small.
not much.
"In this battle in West Asia, I am getting more and more bottomless now. The water here is too deep." Pan Zhang said with a wry smile, "And I am different from Lu Ziming. In the past, I couldn't look up to Lu Ziming. I thought he was just because of his brother-in-law.
The reason caught the lord’s eye.”
Gao Lan was silent for a while after hearing this. If anyone's progress can barely catch up with Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi since they were thrown into the battlefield of West Asia, it is definitely Lu Meng. Although the others are also making continuous progress, if they are compared with this
All three comparisons are somewhat resting on their laurels.
"His talent is very strong, and he works very hard." Gao Lan said slowly, "When he first came here, he was almost the last among the group. Now, he doesn't mention other things, only the command of the legion.
In other words, he is better than me, and talent is indeed something worthy of attention."
"Yes." Pan Zhang nodded slowly and said.
"Talent?" Zhang Liao suddenly appeared behind the two of them and answered, "You don't mind if I pass by and eavesdrop on a word or two."
"Well, I don't mind." Pan Zhang shook his head. Zhang Liao's commanding ability was second to none even among their generals.
"Wen Gui, are you a little disappointed?" Zhang Liao also sat down and said slowly.
In the beginning of the Sun family's army, Sun Quan was the mascot, and Pan Zhang fought as the inner energy separated from the body to control the army. But now, Lu Meng has taken over the army, and Pan Zhang is used as the fierce general who charges into the battle to break the situation.
Even though Pan Zhang is very unhappy now, he has to admit that Lü Meng's command of the army is far better than his own now. At least he can't do what Lü Meng did to dispatch his soldiers in a chaotic situation and use a small number of soldiers.
Break through the loopholes in the local military strength and achieve great results while reducing losses as much as possible.
This ability made Pan Zhang clearly realize the gap between himself and Lu Meng. Lu Meng didn't feel like he was studying, but like he was getting back something he had forgotten.
"Yeah, seeing someone I once underestimated surpass myself so quickly, it would be a lie to say I'm not disappointed." Pan Zhang sighed and said, "That kind of talent is really cheating!"
"Ziming's current talent can see through the flaws in the army, he can dispatch the army more easily, he can give some soldiers a lot of blessings as a breakthrough player, and he can suddenly open up the situation when necessary. I am far inferior to him now.
That’s it.” Pan Zhang said helplessly.
"You first awaken the legion's talent before you say these words." Zhang Liao said slowly, "Talent is something you can only talk about when you work hard to reach a certain level. Otherwise, without enough effort, it is meaningless to talk about talent.
.”
In fact, Zhang Liao would like to say one more thing: Your hard work does not qualify you to speak of talent. In your early twenties, you have achieved the separation of inner energy from the body. It is no problem to say that you are a genius. If you have nothing to blame others, you should blame yourself first.
Legion talent, let’s talk about other things.
If you don't even have the talent for a legion, what qualifications do you have to say that you have worked hard? When you were in your early twenties, your inner energy left your body, what else do you have to be dissatisfied with.
Pan Zhang was stunned for a moment, and nodded after a while. He was also impatient, but Lu Meng put too much pressure on him. It was precisely because he entered the inner Qi separation in his twenties that he felt that he was extremely talented.
But when it comes to the battlefield in West Asia, the younger generation are all monsters. Even Cao Zhen has completely mastered the solidification of the cloud formation.
This feeling that everyone was making progress while he seemed to be standing still made Pan Zhang feel ashamed and angry.
"Let's go, have a big meal first, then leave all these things for this year, and try your best next year to match your talents." Zhang Liao looked at Pan Zhang and patted his shoulder. Pan Zhang nodded.
Then he saluted the two of them and left first. He knew that Zhang Liao definitely had something to inform Gao Lan when he came here.
"Gongtai, let me ask." After Pan Zhang left, Zhang Liao said slowly, "There are two points, one is about the legion led by you, and the other is whether the Yuan family can still send troops, and then
The situation down here is not good.”
"Unless the legion I lead suddenly breaks through to dual talents, it is impossible for it to become stronger in a short time." Gao Lan shook his head and said, "We don't have enough troops here, so we can't send more troops."
"If that's the case, then so be it." Zhang Liao nodded silently when he heard this. He also knew the Yuan family's difficulties, but Chen Gong believed that the Romans would kill them in the next war, and it would be difficult for Anxi to hold on for half a year. In this case
They, the Han Dynasty, need to think carefully.
"Hello, Wen Yuan." When Zhang Liao stood up, Gao Lan suddenly greeted him.
"What's wrong?" Zhang Liao suddenly asked.
"Have you ever thought about it in the future?" Gao Lan gritted his teeth and spoke after a while.
"Why are you thinking so much? The general's destination is to die in battle. It is better to be shrouded in horse leather. My son will also choose this path." Zhang Liao said naturally, while Gao Lan was a little silent.
"I believe that the people behind us will not mistreat the soldiers who have shed blood for this country. We do not come to the battlefield for power or to be crowned princes and prime ministers, but we have devoted our strength to this country and for the sake of this nation.
We work hard to survive. We do these things so that we can have the things that come after us. We don’t do these things for the sake of the things that come after us." Zhang Liao said proudly with a faint smile.
"Compared to civil war and conquering the world, at least I feel at ease here fighting for the country and China behind me." Zhang Liao smiled, "When I clarify the most fundamental thoughts in my heart, I become stronger.
Well, it’s stronger than before.”
The blue-green glow on Zhang Liao's hand became purer. He turned his head and looked at Gao Lan, "My intuition tells me that when these two kinds of glow are pure and fused together, I will be able to break through the world. As a
What the general has to think about is not the future life, but how I should use my power now to protect the future of China behind me."
"Have you come this far?" Gao Lan looked at Zhang Liao in surprise. He never thought Zhang Liao was very strong, but this time he was really calm.
"I have probably begun to transform. The war with the Huns made me understand my pursuit. Going abroad made me understand my value. After fighting against the behemoth Rome, I realized my historical significance." Zhang Liao
He said with a flat smile.
"We are not alone. In this vast continent, we have enemies that can threaten the Chinese Miao people. We have the power, so we need to face them." Zhang Liao's plain and natural eyes were burning with unyielding fighting spirit.
"Fight for the descendants of Zhu Xia, just like our predecessors once opened up the soil for us to survive. Now it's time for us to step forward. For Zhu Xia, we are duty-bound!"
