But if these families with a long history and a sense of decay really want to let go, not to mention holding an undefeated elite like their ancestors, at least they will never be bullied by the internal energy leaving the body. They definitely have this ability. of.
After all, further back in official history, when the Five Husbands invaded China, there were many northern noble families who had no clothes and moved southward. After the collapse of the northern country’s political power, whether it was for self-protection or other ideas, they let go and established Uburg, let alone For the others, there is still no problem in stabilizing their own place of residence. This is a family after the martial arts was abolished by the ninth-grade Zhongzheng system.
If you really let those guys in the Eastern Han Dynasty let go, just look at the dead Sun Wentai. The big Chinese characters on his head are the descendants of Sun Wu. Do you really think there is no way to train soldiers? Do you believe it? Let me tell you, Wei Qing, who is closer. The descendants are not all dead yet, so I can only say that I don’t dare to mess around.
Powerful crossbows, armor, and large-scale elites, these three items are almost the bottom line of the Han Dynasty. As long as the family does not touch these three things, all the descendants will continue to follow Liu Xiu's indulgence.
The Romans were slightly more relaxed than the Han Dynasty in this regard, but only for a very few families. Of course, the main problem was that these families were not easy to manage. Families with the name of royal family are no joke. .
Although the country of Rome cannot be completely said to be founded by these families, they are also deeply rooted in this country. If you look deeper, these families have made numerous contributions in the history of Rome.
There are those who can turn the tide, reshape the world, and expand territories. Although with the advent of the imperial system, these royal families gradually retreated into the background, they have left too many traces in this country, so much so that even if they try hard to restrain themselves, It is difficult to completely hide one's own power.
The seven nobles of Anxi, plus the royal family themselves, had six non-Axitan traditional dual-talented legions and a military soul legion at their peak. Counting the dual-talented legions that can burn talents, the seven nobles of Anxi at their peak. Every family has one.
The royal family, the Assasis family from which Vorogis V was born, was the descendant of the former Achaemenid dynasty, the so-called First Empire of Persia, and was the first to complete the journey across Asia, Africa and Latin America BC. of large monarchical empires.
That is to say, they attacked Greece and were defeated by Sparta. They traveled to the Mediterranean by sea and were defeated by the Greeks who used small boats to siege large ships. They went through the so-called Battle of Marathon in ancient Greece, the Greek Conquest War, the Greco-Persian War x3, and a series of Asia Minor, Aegean Sea, etc. The civilized war was epic, and in the end Macedonia gave birth to Alexander, the unlucky guy who was taken away by a wave.
But how can I put it, even a broken ship has three points, let alone the first big country across Europe, Asia and Africa. Although Alexander was defeated by Alexander, Alexander would also die. After his death, the members of the Assasis family The descendants relied on their former identities and abilities to build a new empire after several generations of accumulation.
This is also the origin of Anxi. However, this method of gaining supporters without a large number of conquests, relying on the legacy of the ancestors, and relatively good abilities is actually very risky. The family problems left by Liu Xiu, Assasis I The remaining seven noble issues.
Relatively speaking, Liu Xiu still has a bit of a bottom line, but Assasis I is quite a trap. The seven nobles have all obtained the position of commander of the country's main army, and it is a hereditary one, so the seven nobles behind Anxi are arguing. In fact, it was doomed from the beginning.
Of course, in the early years, the royal family held a large number of regular elite and military spirit legions, and other nobles retained elite legions obtained from other places. During battles, the royal family gathered the legions of various nobles and sent troops to fight together.
Even if an elite regiment of a certain noble was completely wiped out in a certain battle, the seven nobles who were already close to the country would recruit new troops from their own forces.
As a family that has been immersed in a certain legion for hundreds of years, and is still undergoing continuous training and running-in, as long as not even the seeds are wiped out, they can be used for war in just one to two years. Years of training and war have restored the legion.
Of course, the fixed routines, while maximizing the talents of elites, also locked up their possibility of breakthrough, which was a gain and a loss. Of course, this was the past.
In Trajan's time, the baton of the Parthian royal family commanding the seven nobles under their command disappeared, which meant that the Holy Parthian Army Soul Army was destroyed by Trajan's army. This is how the Parthian situation became worse and worse in the next hundred years. The important reason, simply put, is that from that time on, the Parthian royal family lost the support of force, leaving only the so-called moral support.
This is also the reason why in the past hundred years, there have been more and more civil strife in the Parthian country, and the domestic situation has become worse and worse. Because the Parthian royal family has lost its power, more and more people can shake this position, and the seven nobles are in charge of one army. The system has truly shaken the foundation of the country.
The original structure of one large country with seven small ones collapsed, and the original situation of the seven nobles defending the royal family was completely destroyed. Without power, even if the royal family wanted to unite the country, they had no capital. After all, peace can only be protected by force. within the range.
Up to now, it is not so much the seven nobles of Parthia as it is the seven kingdoms that are parasitic on the body of Parthia and suck blood. It can be said that if there is no moth like Ardashir later, the next Persian Empire will basically be composed of these seven kingdoms. Recommended.
The Parthian royal family controls the seven nobles, and the seven nobles govern the large and small nobles. It is like the enfeoffment of princes and officials in the Spring and Autumn Period of the Central Plains. The advantages are obvious. However, in the past, the three families of Han, Zhao and Wei were divided into Jin, and later the seven nobles dismantled Parthia.
All in all, every empire has its own internal conflicts, and every empire also has its own advantages. Countries that can be called empires have been powerful in any case. They may have problems of one kind or another, but their The system is absolutely universal in certain periods.
What Volojis V originally hoped was to completely subjugate the seven nobles, just like he had subdued the Sullun family before. Not to mention other things, he would take the dual-talented elites and ordinary elites controlled by the Sullun family into the hands of the country. There will be a significant increase in strength.
It is a pity that the failure of the Sullun family made other nobles wary. Although the victory of Vologis V dissipated a lot of the clouds of Parthia's repeated defeats in the face of Rome, after all, this was for the bottom and middle class.
For the seven nobles, they have been completely corrupted and are still immersed in the glory of the past. In their impression, Rome is powerful, but they themselves are not weak. The reason why Parthia has always failed is because they want to weaken The power of the royal family.
Look at this time, Vologis V has mastered the strength of the Sullun family, didn't he easily conquer the two rivers, capture Armenia, and even counterattack the Roman mainland? Doesn't this just show how powerful they are in peace?
Therefore, based on merit alone, what Vologis V could gain was more support from the bottom and middle class. The decadent nobles were the masters who would not let go of the eagle when they saw the rabbit.
What these nobles need is profit, what kind of country, what glory of peace, it has nothing to do with them, defeating Rome, the benefits are also for the royal family, and have little to do with them. On the contrary, it is the continuous decline of the royal family, which has more practical significance for them .
Even if we obtain the Guards Corps of the Esfandel Family, plus the two legions of the Sullen Family and the Karan Family, it will not be enough. Even if Atratome broke through before the battle, it only relied on four reorganized troops. A dual-talented legion is not enough either. Vologis V felt quite helpless, and sometimes he really wanted to lead his troops to annihilate the seven nobles.
It's a pity that after the Sullun family was neglected and suffered once, other families were wary of this aspect, and it was easy to fight a protracted war. And for Anxi, who was about to start a war with Rome, how could a protracted civil war occur in the country? It's all about seeking death.
We can only talk to the Mihlan family again, the armored cavalry regiment... Vologis V felt depressed.
On the other side, the Han army, Fars and others who had withdrawn to the vicinity of the two rivers were now looking at the land near the two rivers with strange expressions.
"Could this be the defense you built?" Shen Pei stretched out his arm and touched the seemingly flat black mud in front of him with his sword, and then it seemed as if it touched the water.
"Naturally, I checked some information about Mesopotamia. There are enough wetlands and swamps here. In addition, the climate here is humid and there are no tall trees. So after we leave here, I control the celestial phenomena here. It's been raining for more than a month." Chen Gong patted the black mud not far away with his sword, and then produced water-like ripples.
"This place itself is part of a large wetland swamp, but if there is not enough rain, the scope of the wetland will shrink, and I gave them enough rain." Chen Gong said with a smile, "It spreads for dozens of miles, or even hundreds of miles. The range within, this is my estimated map.”
"So cruel." The judge, Zhuge Liang, Sima Yi, and Lu Meng all crowded over to look at the map Chen Gong took out, and finally they could only say this.
"Because these wetlands and swamps will have an extension area when there is sufficient rain. Although their extension areas do not overlap much, if there is enough rain, I think they can still become a whole." Chen Gong explained. , while saying slightly proudly, "Okay, now send someone to investigate the scope of the fortifications I made."
With more than two hundred expedition horses dispersed, it took only two days for the Han army to basically determine the scope of the wetland created by Chen Gong. It is obvious that this method of creating wetlands based on feelings and historical materials is a big pit. , the wetland created by Chen Gong far exceeded the scale he estimated.
