The five hundred imperial guards sent by the Yong family did not arouse the slightest interest in Perennis and Huangfu Song. The two of them had already passed this stage, even though the imperial guards had become extremely rare elites after the change of heaven. For this That's it for the two of them.
"Brother, there is some news from Northern Europe. It seems a little unexpected. Why don't you send someone to suppress it first?" Perennis poured a glass of wine for Huangfu Song. The regulations of not allowing drinking in the military camp have no control over these two. On top of that, it's time for these two to do as they please, unlike Guan Yu, who is not as particular as Guan Yu. Plus, inside the polar circle, it's impossible not to drink some wine.
"Something happened again?" Huangfu Song frowned, what are you doing in Rome? When they went there last summer, even though they couldn't enter in the summer due to the rules of the Nordic New World, the things inside escaped somehow. He came out and caused trouble to the two of them, but now something happened again? Is this how you work in Rome? "Well, the situation is not very clear, but based on last year, it should be something like the mountain giant inside that ran out of the passage." Perennis said with some helplessness, he was also a worker, Claudius The family is doing research there, and if something goes wrong, he has to wipe his ass.
Even though Perennis is not named Claudius, Sextus, whom Perennis represents, has been a retainer of the Claudius family for almost two hundred years according to the Central Plains.
Therefore, when Severus became the head of the family and Claudius caused trouble, it was quite normal for Perennis to wipe his butt. Although Perennis could not figure out what the Claudius family was studying, But if something goes wrong, he can just wash the floor.
"That thing is hard to fight." Huangfu Song exhaled and said.
Last year Huangfusong and Perennis went to Northern Europe, planning to rush in to see what was going on, but they didn't expect that that world actually had seasonal restrictions.
Although Rome is not unable to break through this restriction, according to the observations of researchers from the Claudius family, there is a super-powerful energy core inside, which is suspected of being a living god. Once it breaks through, it will cause great harm to the world. The energy fluctuations may activate it.
It’s not that I’m afraid of gods or anything like that. Killing gods in Rome was just for fun, but what kind of strength does this seemingly immortal god still have? What kind of power does it have in the world where the god itself was born? There are no references to Rome either.
Although Rome has acquired the structure of Nordic mythology, and the new Nordic world is also interested in the etching technology formed in ancient times, and the runes are also famous, Rome is not very sure about the exact strength of the opponent. It is sure to win. , but losses must always be considered.
The end of the Han Dynasty was also due to this consideration. As for the etching technology obtained after hammering the opponent, Rome did not mind sharing it with the Han Dynasty. As a result, before Rome took action, the mountain giant inside ran out for no reason. .
At that time, Perennis and Huangfu Song killed all the mountain giants after a random killing spree. However, that victory reminded Perennis and Huangfu Song that the individual strength of the opponent was a bit outrageous, and the general Qi training was successful. Gang, I have never seen inner energy condensing.
This was also the second time they were dispatched. Perennis and Huangfusong streamlined their subordinates. As long as their subordinates are above the dual talent level, they will not use rubbish. They can practice Qi Chenggang on a large scale, even if the cloud energy on the opposite side is scattered and there are no dual personnel. Talent can be given away.
"Is Claudius so sloppy in his work?" Huangfu Song asked in confusion.
"Brother, just turn this family into your aristocratic family, and it's not a family, but a group." Perennis said with a complicated attitude.
Huangfusong was silent for a while, recalling the alliances that a group of aristocratic families participated in. Except for the one organized by Chen Xi, there was no mistake in any of them. He couldn't help but nodded, understanding Perennis, and stopped pursuing the matter. .
"However, the Claudius family has completed the exploration of the opposite world map, and has also built a new reverse ritual based on existing technology." Perennis told some bad news, and of course he had to tell some good news to save Rome. face.
"Is the reverse ritual what I know?" Huangfusong asked rhetorically.
"It's the Tianzhou thing, the consciousness that divides parts, allowing us to be in a complete posture
Come into that world. "Perennis explained.
Huangfu Song was stunned when he heard this, "You can do this? Why did you ask us to do this? You can drag the opponent to death!"
In the Tianzhou incident, Huangfusong had seen that, not to mention the factors that caused trouble in his own family, but just to talk about the ability of Rome that came to him, if he was really shameless, everything on the opposite side would be dead. With unlimited troops, the immortals You have to get down, too!
This proves that the new world of Northern Europe is indeed a complete world that relies on our larger world. "Perennis did not directly explain the reason, but first explained the general situation. After Huangfusong agreed with this point, he explained, "The problem is that this world is different from the previous Tianzhou. The last time Tianzhou was in the early stage It's empty."
There was no one in Tianzhou in the early days, so Rome could build the reverse ritual early, and it could be used directly later. But now there are living creatures in this new world. It is not easy for Rome to build this reverse ritual. In addition, There is danger inside and outside, so someone has to take the risk and rush in first to build this thing against the pressure from the opposite side.
"Wait a minute, how do you deal with the thing inside that is suspected of being the evil god?" Huangfu Song doesn't believe in gods. He almost thinks of anything he doesn't like as an evil god. Even if it's a true god, as long as he is defeated by Huangfu Song, it's an evil god. , "That thing will wake up when it senses huge energy fluctuations."
"The technical idea given by the Claudius family is to directly open a hole in the opposite world, and then send our main force to go directly in, complete the reverse summoning ceremony inside, and then take it out." Pei Lennis explained, "When the world is sealed and the reverse ritual is activated, let alone an unidentified energy body, we can kill even the true god."
"The idea is correct. The question is, won't the reverse ritual be destroyed?" Huangfusong asked somewhat strangely as he didn't know much about this technique.
"The reverse ritual is composed of coordinates, world, and information." Perennis followed the script. He didn't understand this, but he still had trust in the technology of the Claudius family.
"The difficulty lies in rushing in and leading the retreat, right?" Huangfusong said with a frown. This is really digging a hole in the opposite world, then fighting in, and then fighting out. This is not easy. Compared with not knowing how to return, If something slips out, the risk of going deep into enemy territory is much higher.
"Yes, only after this step is completed can we use the reverse ritual to descend on the other side and deal a devastating blow to the other side. Brother Huangfu, now that we are here, I can tell you about our true purpose in Rome." Perun Nice said sincerely.
"I would like to hear the details." Huangfusong nodded deeply. Huangfusong believed in protecting world civilization, but for this goal, Rome would not be so active.
"Regarding the etching of heaven and earth essence, General Huangfu, what do you think of this path?" Perennis looked at Huangfu Song with some expectation. At their level, they are truly qualified to speak about the future from the standpoint of the country. develop.
"Not surprisingly, it will be the main development direction in the future. Etching technology has changed a lot of things." Huangfusong nodded and said, "If this technology continues to develop, it will penetrate into all aspects of society, not only the military, but also other aspects."
"Yes, we, the Roman Senate, held several discussions after the sudden change, and finally decided that etching technology might become the direction of the next stage." Perennis said without any concealment.
After all, the Roman Empire has not collapsed yet. It is still a huge force that envelopes the entire European continent. How can it be that the best of tens of millions of people are at a loss about the future.
After about twenty times of mental connections among the three hundred senators initiated by Herodian, and more than ten mental connections initiated within the Claudius family, the upper echelons of Rome have determined the future development direction of Rome - Roman citizens The physical myth route and the heaven and earth essence etching technology route gradually replaced other existing technical ideas.
Herodian went to the Han Dynasty to conduct a detailed social investigation, and finally determined the crisis of the Roman civil system, and then came up with Rome's policy of reducing the number of households and annihilating the elites of European barbarians. Otherwise, Pompianus alone would not be enough. to drive change on this scale.
Implementing the policy of reducing the number of European barbarian elites and annihilating their families requires a large group of elders to promote it, and these people are basically people that Herodian found, persuaded, and won over after sharing his own thinking and analysis.
However, this method cannot solve the problem. The scarcity of Roman citizens is inevitable. This is an irreversible institutional fact. Moreover, even if the elites among the barbarians are being consumed, they will inevitably rely on the channels opened by Rome to complete their promotions. The barbarianization of citizens is almost inevitable.
If you want to solve the problem, physical means alone are not enough. The contradiction exists there and will explode one day sooner or later. Therefore, after Herodian reunited the Claudius family, he immediately activated the highest level of thinking in Rome. Connectivity technology.
There is a saying that the spiritual gifts of the Han Dynasty are the most varied, with complex abilities and highly targeted abilities. Anxi's web of destiny can be used to overwhelm all opponents if the palm of the hand is strong. The glory of Nangui's birth is pinned on the giant god Brahma. , basically have a strong divine auxiliary effect, and have special significance for army-level operations.
In comparison, Rome's thinking connection has no tricks, and even if it is strong, you can't tell how strong it is. Compared with blessing, it seems to be just like that, but Rome's thinking connection has one core point that kills other abilities, and that is true. He can transfer his thinking analysis to others to think about, and then concentrate everyone's intelligence to crack it.
Herodian shared everything he collected and even his thoughts with the elders of the Claudius family. For a country, there are always people who can actively give up everything for them. Herodian relies on his thinking The connection opened up his memory and thinking, allowing more than two hundred elites of the Claudius family to think about the problems he faced.
This unsolvable institutional problem finally found a way out for this group of elites after more than a dozen mental connections. I can't solve the system, but I can solve something else - to make Roman citizens truly independent from the barbarians. Come out and become a god.
One thing to say is that in the 21st century, this kind of thinking is somewhat reversing the course of history, but in this era, it is still quite advanced, and Rome does have the technology that allows Roman citizens to transcend ordinary humans like European barbarians.
The combination of the Third Eagle Banner Legion and the two roads of Anaeus can allow Roman citizens to possess the second form, which is the metalized giant form. This is the special feature of the Goddess.
After that, every European barbarian who joined the Roman citizens was given blood, mastered this metal giant form, and completely destroyed their blood relationship with the former barbarians by dividing people into groups. When you become a citizen, you have become a god. , natural and already separated.
Even if most of the elites among the European barbarians become citizens, they will naturally be separated from their former tribesmen, but these barbarian citizens will not take the initiative to get close to the black-haired and black-eyed orthodox Roman citizens of the Apennines, because everyone is different, but with artificial gods After blood has a second form, it is different. It is self-evident who is a brother and who is a relative!
Although Herodian was not very satisfied with this path, but with no other choice, this path could at least preserve everything in Rome currently, and there would be room for expansion in the future, so without any choice, Herodian finally decided to nodded.
As for the heaven and earth essence etching technology as the future technological development direction, it was a plan that had to be discovered during more than a dozen thinking connections to supplement the existing flaws of the civil system. After more than twenty revisions, Rome The future development direction was finalized.
The New World of Northern Europe caught the eye of the Roman Empire because Rome now needed high-end etching technology, various rare secrets, and so on.
By the way, this is also the reason why Kushan has many means of payment. Compared with esoteric arts and etching, Kushan said that the Han Dynasty was just like that. Although their technology popularity was average, their high-tech was really improved one after another. Yes, the technology of rubbing the secrets of gods and Buddhas is there. From time to time, high-tech secret techniques can be developed. Even if they are not popular, they can be sold to Rome in exchange for money.
As for Rome, many comers are welcome. The problem is that the secret techniques and etching techniques obtained from Kushan need to be transformed to a certain extent. They are more of a reference and can be used directly. But for Rome to become a The system must be transformed into its own form.
Many of the gadgets of the five gangsters of later generations are exactly the same in terms of physical principles, but the forms of expression formed by their respective cultures and social habits will lead to great differences in their technical thinking and design ideas, and then their appearance will be greatly different. distinction.
To put it bluntly, for those who are familiar with the style, there are several weapons with the same principle placed there, and you can tell who belongs to them at a glance.
The Roman side did not realize this. They just felt that the secret techniques obtained from Kushan were not very easy to use and needed to be modified by themselves. The same was true for the etching technology in the Han Dynasty. It was okay to use it as a reference. Really If you want to use it, you have to change it to your own form.
It is also based on this idea that Rome wants to develop a high-end heaven and earth essence etching technology as a reference, and then rely on its principles to develop its own high-end etching technology. After all, the second form of Roman citizens also needs this technology.
For this reason, Rome carefully surveyed various parts of Europe, and finally set its target on Northern Europe.
Unlike Huangfusong's estimate that Rome didn't know much about the New Nordic World, Rome clearly knew that there were living gods in the New Nordic World, and even knew which gods they were.
The Claudius family’s ability to recreate the summoning of gods is not just a lie. When we first looked for the new world in Northern Europe, we searched for it according to the diagram. Which gods could not be summoned at all, and even the chain summons could not be achieved. In addition to proving this god It doesn't exist, and it doesn't even have an associated god. Another possibility is that this guy is still alive.
The new Nordic world was tried out bit by bit by the Claudius family. The Nordic god system is withering, but many of them don't sound the *** call, which is very problematic.
It doesn't matter whether the gods are powerful or not, what matters is knowledge. In the early days, the Romans used the evil god summoning technique as a toy, but later on, many people pursued the knowledge carried by these evil gods. Although this knowledge was poisonous, twisted, and obscure, But there are good things too.
At the very least, the Roman Empire has proved that before the barbarism, there was a mythical era, and that era was quite splendid. The Roman Empire now needs that knowledge, not to inherit it according to the book, but to absorb the essence of it.
Perennis told Huangfu Song everything he could reveal, which made Huangfu Song fall into deep thought. A complete set of high-end etching technology was no longer a priceless issue. The Han Dynasty also needed it.
"Since I have told this news to my brother, I am not afraid of him making up his mind. I just hope that he will work together in the future. Once we get this thing, we will definitely crack it, so we don't mind sharing it with the Han Dynasty." Perun Nice offered the price that Roma had already prepared, and he knew very well that this increase was enough to knock Huangfusong unconscious.
As soon as Perennis said these words, Huangfu Song felt dizzy. However, Huangfu Song was arranged to come because Huangfu Song had experienced a lot and would not be easily fooled. Song was dizzy, but he still retained some sense.
"What do we need to pay?" Huangfusong tried his best to suppress the restlessness in his heart. Seventy years of experience have taught him that pie-in-the-sky things are very dangerous. For example, if he finally waits until Emperor Ling arranges the elite backbone for him, I turned around and went to fight against the demon. Damn it, there is no pie in the sky.
"Cooperate with our Rome to completely kill the opponent." Perennis sighed in his heart. At this price, Huangfu Song can still maintain the last trace of his clarity. He is indeed a mature man.
"As it should be." Huangfu Song said with a smile, but he was somewhat afraid.
Huangfu Song didn't think that if the Nordic New World was really what he knew before, Rome would offer such a large price.
This is no longer the price for Huangfu Song to sacrifice his life. It is the price for the entire army to sacrifice their lives for Huangfu Song. But now that they are here, there is no way they can go back.
"Then what's next?" Perennis said with a smile. The information he should convey has been delivered. It is impossible for Rome to tell the Han Dynasty how many evil things there are in the new Nordic world, but Rome has already instructed Perennis to tell the Han Dynasty. How dangerous is this thing?
After all, the first one will expose what Rome has been hiding. There is no way to use the Evil God Summoning Technique in the Han Dynasty. It is really safe. It is not like Rome where it is used a lot. Some barbarians will accidentally
Sex triggered the blood sacrifice, which led to some minor chaos, but it also lost Rome's method of obtaining knowledge from the evil god.
Even though this method of acquiring knowledge is somewhat sinister and dangerous, given the size of the Roman Empire, it did not care about this danger. Knowledge that it did not master was a very precious treasure in any era. Since the Roman Empire could find a way to obtain knowledge from If they obtained it from the evil god and then interpreted it in various ways, the Roman Empire would not doubt that the Han Dynasty could not do it.
Contemptuous of its opponents, and sometimes itself, the Roman Empire has always placed the Han Dynasty in the same position as itself. If Rome can do it, they assume that the Han Dynasty can do it. At most, the geography and environment of the Han Dynasty cannot. Just develop.
But the fact that the local area cannot develop does not mean that it cannot develop in other places. If a territory as big as the Han Dynasty is divided, it can be verified in any way. Even if most of the evil gods summoned are beasts that cannot communicate and do not carry knowledge, as long as If it succeeds once in a hundred times, it is worth continuing in the eyes of the Roman Empire.
The so-called Roman Empire was crazy, with demons raging and so on, but it was just a facade that had been shown to the Han Dynasty. In fact, the summoning of evil gods was not only a toy for the crazy people in the Senate, but also a way for Rome to acquire new knowledge. way.
For example, high-end technology such as the reverse summoning ritual, which Rome has developed, is not outrageous. It can truly carry out cross-world reverse summons. Rome must at least have a technical foundation, and where does this foundation come from? An evil god carrying this technology. He gave everything he had, from his body to his soul, only to be eaten up and wiped out by Rome. He could not get it so quickly by relying on research.
Because the Han Dynasty is currently focusing on destroying Kuishang, and the news that Rome's summoning of evil gods caused the demons in the Senate to dance wildly has been broadcast from before the Anxi and Anxi Dynasties to the present, it is not even old news, so whenever they receive a message from Rome When Apennine engaged in such things as summoning evil spirits, the Han Dynasty intelligence officers took a quick look and threw them aside.
I've only seen the top world-breaking evil gods take a second look and then throw them aside, because this is really not news.
Therefore, so far, Rome still hides this secret under its own laughter and curses - Damn the senators, they are crazy again, what kind of evil god have they created today!
Everything is so easily covered up under madness.
Watching Huangfu Song leave, Perennis smiled. The Senate asked him to find a way at the last moment to inform Huangfu Song of the dangers of this battle without exposing his own sources of information and without causing any speculation in the Han Dynasty.
From the perspective of the members of the Senate, this is a very troublesome task, but from the perspective of Perennis, it is very simple. I will tell you how beneficial this task is. Huangfu Song will think about it himself. As for the source of intelligence , Huangfusong can figure it out by himself.
After Huangfusong returned to his camp, he immediately notified Yuan Tan and others.
"So the danger is great?" Yuan Tan asked calmly.
"It's not a big problem anymore. The price offered by Rome is a price that makes all of us fight for it. It's a complete set of heaven and earth essence etching technology. This is no joke." Huangfu Song said with narrowed eyes.
People who can understand what a system is can understand what a whole system means. Even if this system is old and does not conform to the usage pattern of the country, for countries that have not yet completed the entire system, it can be used for reference and reproduction. The value speaks for itself.
"Are you sure?" Zhang Ren asked with a frown.
"There is no need for the Roman Empire to lie about this kind of thing, because this thing is needed by both of us." Huangfu Song was a little tired, "What I am more afraid of now is that the Roman Empire can't actually defeat the opponent, and it will drag us down. Although this answer is somewhat It's outrageous, but I'm really worried."
"If the Roman Empire can't defeat it, it's useless to add us." Xu You looked at Huangfu Song calmly and said, "So we only need to consider the possibility that the danger is great and we will fill it in."
Huangfu Song nodded when he heard this. Indeed, even Rome could not be defeated. Bringing this few people from the Yuan family over would not solve any problems. It would not be enough to support them.
"That is to say, it is very dangerous. But if it is dangerous, we can accept it." Yuan Tan lowered his eyebrows and said, "I will lead the team first, and General Huangfu will take command.
. "
"No, you have to stay outside with me. I already know the first wave of troops entering." Huangfu Song refused directly, "Your personal guards and Yuan Bo's headquarters are both very good, but you are all here for me." I'm not sure what the situation is outside. I guess Roma has some knowledge of what's going on inside, but the strength on paper and the real strength are two different things."
Huangfusong didn't believe in paper strength. Looking at the paper strength, Bo Cai in Changshe was just like paper. As a result, Bo Cai killed Zhu Jun. Even he had to take a breath when facing the menacing Bo Cai. He wanted to kill him, so before taking action, Huangfusong only took a look at the paper investigation.
Huangfusong estimated that Rome had obtained the opponent's paper strength, but after the last time they wiped out the group of mountain giants who had practiced their Qi to become a gang, Huangfusong was somewhat worried. Those mountain giants had all practiced their Qi to become a gang, and were easily wiped out just because of those Guys are stragglers.
Not to mention the fact that the mountain giants on the opposite side were equipped with Zhang Ren as their commander, Huangfu Song and Perennis could not easily eliminate them.
"Shall I go in?" Zhang Ren pointed at himself and said with some estimation.
"Yes, you lead the reorganized Yuyang Cavalry in." Huangfu Song nodded, "In this kind of situation where no one knows what's going on, you can only use troops whose explosive power exceeds the opponent's estimate. If you fight hard, the opponent may be able to accept it. "Hold on, but it seems like an averagely strong opponent can burst out with strength that exceeds expectations. You are the only one. Are you sure?"
"It's not a big problem." Zhang Ren clasped his fists and replied. When he raised his hands, Huangfu Song could see the complicated golden thread patterns on Zhang Ren's wrists. At this level, there was nothing to be afraid of.
"I will let Gao Gongzheng take the rear as your rear army. Rome is ready to rush in and establish a reverse ceremony. I think this strategy is correct, but it is very dangerous. You should be careful. Yuyang's sudden riding opportunity The motivation is strong enough. If it doesn't work, withdraw. I'll make it clear to Rome. We have more than one chance." Huangfu Song warned Zhang Ren and Gao Shun.
"How about I go to the target location and establish a reverse ritual?" Gao Shun suddenly said.
"I'm not worried about the strength of your headquarters at all. It's just that the situation is unclear now. They hit hard from the beginning. What about the opponent's main force?" Huangfusong waved his hand. The last news Perennis gave made him Huangfu Song felt deeply bad.
"Marquis Ye, when the time comes, you will lead people to set up an archer position, and let the super-heavy steps protect the archers. This time, fight steadily and don't rush forward." Huangfu Song warned everyone present that the fight must be fought, and it is impossible to retreat. Go back, but be careful about how you fight.
"I'll try to discuss with Perennis to see if I can take back part of the initiative and let me command our army as a partial division." After Huangfu Song issued the order, he added two more sentences. Originally, they had already done so. Preparations were made for Perennis to take command, but the situation was so bad now that Huangfu Song felt it necessary to ask for part of the military power back for checks and balances.
Huangfu Song handed the list he had prepared to Perennis, and then tried to mention to Perennis that he would command the Han army as a partial division to support the Roman headquarters. If Perennis had any orders, he could just give him directly.
As a result, Perennis laughed and said that Huangfu Song can rest assured that he will not command Huangfu Song, and the two of them can cooperate with each other. As the deputy emperor of Rome, he can command the Roman elite, and Huangfu Song can command the Han army. Both sides can cooperate with each other. .
"I feel that it is not easy for me to give certain orders to you, brother. Besides, if I make a mistake in commanding, the losses will be great. Even if it is a correct order that I think, I will not be happy. Maybe I will I have my own better way." Perennis said with a smile, "So I will command the Han army, and I will command the Roman legions. We just need to cooperate. I believe that I will not miss any opportunities, and I will So too!"
Huangfusong nodded, he still had this basic quality.
In this case, there is nothing to worry about. You and I are both generals who have been fighting for decades. We also know how to fight. There is no need to restrain each other. It is difficult for others to cooperate with each other based on the battle situation, but it is easy for us. "Perennis said confidently.
Huangfu Song thought for a while and realized that it was indeed the case, and it would be more conducive to play if they were separated.
