Zhao Yun led the royal guards to protect Julia and rushed forward ten days later. They arrived near Byzantium. They encountered a problem, how to cross the strait.

The group temporarily hid in the nearby mountains and forests. In the evening of that day, the guards who had sent inquiry came back. The news he brought back made everyone's heart sank. The Roman army had blocked the entire strait, and there were cavalry patrols throughout the coastal area. It seemed impossible for Zhao Yun and the others to leave here.

Linde Hall, Luoyang.

Chen Chu stood in front of the sand table and frowned, while Zhou Yu and other cabinet ministers stood on the left and right. They had just received a letter from Rome, and the content made them worry about Zhao Yun and the others.

Chen Chu pointed to the strait near Byzantium, "Zilong and the others should have arrived here now! But the Roman army has blocked it. Although Seth has obtained general support and understanding from the government and the public, he does not seem to be willing to let go of the former queen!"

Everyone nodded, Zhou Yu frowned and said, "Seth's reaction was much faster than we expected. Zilong and the others could no longer return from Byzantine East! We must find another way!"

Chen Chu nodded and frowned, "But what should I do?"

Everyone fell silent, Jia Xu said: "Your Majesty, if you launch a fierce attack on Assyria with a large army, Zilong and the others may still escape!"

Chen Chu's eyes lit up.

Zhuge Liang immediately opposed: "No! In this case, the development of the situation will be difficult to control. The empire has only experienced an unprecedented flood and a war, and its vitality is severely damaged, so it is not suitable to fight to the death with the enemy!"

Everyone looked at Chen Chu, waiting for his decision.

Chen Chu habitually tapped the edge of the sand table with his fingers, and suddenly stopped and said firmly: "What Kong Ming said makes sense, but we must not sit idly by! This is not only related to Zilong's fate, but also to the majesty of the empire. If we don't even want to rescue a general, will the people still trust us?"

Everyone couldn't help but nod.

Chen Chu smiled confidently and said, "Although we are in a difficult situation now, it is even more difficult for the Romans! Such a big change happened within the new defeat soon!"

Zhuge Liang said: "Since Your Majesty has made up his mind, the next question is how to attack!"

"What's the good idea for Kong Ming?"

Zhuge Liang pointed to Petersburg and its vicinity, "Ross' strength has recovered a lot, and he can completely resist the threat from the west for us, so we can tune more power to Assyria!"

Chen Chu nodded, "Transfer all the materials west of Yumen Pass to Assyria, and the country will also provide support as much as possible!"

Zhou Yu said: "We can also order Gan Ning and Zhou Tai's navy to advance north while putting pressure on Rome!"

"Okay! Just do it!"

Zhou Yu said: "In this way, the Romans' water power was restrained. We can order Jerusalem to gather a fleet of ships in the day and night to travel near Byzantium to pick up Zilong and others!"

Everyone nodded. Chen Chu said comfortably: "This is a good method! Immediately send orders to Jerusalem!"

The entire empire was running at full speed, and many people were very puzzled by this. They didn't understand why the Qin Empire had to launch a large number of troops after experiencing such a disaster. Some people said with emotion: "Empire will perish even if it is very wary!"

"Youping, good news!" As soon as Zhou Tai walked into the big tent, Gan Ning excitedly waved the letter in his hand.

Zhou Tai hurriedly asked, "Is it Your Majesty's letter? What did you say?"

Gan Ning handed the letter to Zhou Tai and said excitedly: "Your Majesty ordered our navy to go north to attack the Romans!"

Zhou Taihu's eyes lit up, he snatched the letter and read it again, laughing and said, "Okay! I've been waiting for this day for a long time!"

Gan Ning asked, "What's the movement of the Romans opposite?"

"Isn't that all of them huddled in the water camp! The Roman navy's strength is not smaller than ours, and both sides of their water camp are cliffs that are easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the artillery on it can suppress a large area of ​​sea surface! It's not easy to break the Roman navy!"

Gan Ning said: "We must seize the cliffs on both sides first! Let's sneak in and touch the situation first!"

Zhou Tai nodded, "I'll go now!" He quickly left the tent.

In the middle of the night that day, the Roman Navy Village seemed particularly quiet, with lights dotted on the camp, and sentries scattered in an orderly manner across the entire water village. The patrol team held torches and swam around the water village. The guard was very strict. Although the navy troops on both sides had not fought for a long time, the Romans still did not dare to take it lightly.

A small boat slowly approached the Roman military water village under the cover of night, and stopped more than ten miles away from the water village, because if you move forward, you will most likely be discovered by the other party's patrol clutch. The boat leaned against a rock and was fixed. More than a dozen black-clad men in black, wearing black water, dived into the water. They carried bamboo tubes, lock hooks and other objects.

The shallow ripples passed between the patrol clutches and no one noticed them.

One hour later, more than a dozen men in black landed under the Three Gorges on the southeast side. There were strange rocks here. On the towering and steep cliff in front of him was a shore artillery position of the Roman navy, and on the left was the main village.

His eyes turned back to the Qin naval tent.

Gan Ning paced back and forth in the big tent, while Zhou Tai stood aside.

Gan Ning knocked on the forehead and said with some concern: "I don't know what the situation of these bastards are?"

"Xingba, don't worry too much! They won't be in trouble! The Water Ghost Team has trained such a task countless times!"

“Training is useless!”

At this time, a Sun Jiang ran in. "General, the Water Ghost Team is back!"

Gan Ning, Zhou Tai couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. At this time, two soldiers wearing water leaned into the tent.

"General!" the two saluted.

Gan Ning waved his hand and said, "Tell me the serious matter!"

"Yes!" The two stood up, and one of them said: "The guards in the Roman military water village are very strict, and the guards in the two forts are also very tight!~~"

Zhou Tai and Gan Ning exchanged a look and frowned. Zhou Tai said, "If you do this, you can only fight hard!"

"Although the two generals are very careful in the enemy's defense, we have discovered one of their omissions!"

Zhou Tai, Gan Ning was stunned. Gan Ning said angrily: "Grandma! I have something to say at once, don't lose my appetite!"

The sergeant hurriedly said: "Although the enemy is very cautious, we found that the turrets in their two places have no warning power at all on the side of the cliff!"

Zhou Tai and Gan Ning heard this and couldn't help but show surprise. Gan Ning asked anxiously: "Are you sure?"

The sergeant nodded with certainty.

Gan Ning laughed and said, "Okay! That's great!"

Zhou Tai said: "To ensure that everything is safe, let me lead someone to capture the support positions on both sides!"

Gan Ning nodded and ordered: "I ordered all troops to prepare for battle!"

The eyes turned to Jerusalem.

Alex asked the trusted general Reit, who was beside her, and said, "Are the ships I asked you to prepare for? "Already the ships I have prepared are accurate?" Alex was wearing a long dress, and a delicate belt tied around her waist, making her look more graceful, beautiful and noble.

Reit replied: "It's ready! All sailors and navigators are the best, and they are loyal to His Majesty!" Alex is now the Queen of Jerusalem.

Alex nodded and reminded: "Although the Qin navy will suppress the Roman navy, this trip is still full of dangers and you must be careful!" "Yes!"

Alex turned around. Rett couldn't help but breathe. He was shocked by his majesty's amazing beauty, came back to his senses, and quickly lowered his head.

Alex reminded: "Remember, this is the highest secret and must not be let unrelated people know!"

"yes!"

"You go down!"

Rett bowed and stepped back.

Alex turned around and looked at the streets and houses outside the palace, and couldn't help but sigh in melancholy.

Reit felt that the dock was actively preparing. Reit looked at it for a while.

A middle-aged man quickly came to Rett. The man was named Treve, the most experienced casual man under Alex. "General!" Treve saluted respectfully.

Lei Te nodded and asked, "Are you all ready?"

“Everything is ready!”

"Very good! From today on, no one of you can leave here!"

"Yes! General, when will we set out?"

"I'm not sure yet! You guys are waiting for my order!"

"yes!"

Leit inspected a letter at the dock, arranged all matters, and then left. Back to the official office, an officer came up and saluted, "General!" Lei Te nodded, walked straight to the desk, put down a document in his hand, and then took off his armor robe. The officer hurriedly came up to take the robe, and glanced at the document intentionally or unintentionally.

The officer set up Reit's robe. At this time, Reit suddenly hurried out, and he felt anxious.
