November 3rd.

The Pioneer of the Peacock Kingdom, Baicheng's royal family led 50,000 mercenaries to Bamiyan, an important town in the Persian Plateau of Saiye Province.

Bamiyang is located in the jurisdiction of Suoyexing Province and is located in the Indus River Basin. It is an important node on the Silk Road. It travels between the Persian Plateau and the Pamirs. It carries the intersection of civilizations in the south, east and west, and the first goal of the Peacock Army heading north. This is here.

Ma Jin, the Qin army captain who guarded Bamiyang, had about 4,000 soldiers under his command. This group of troops was the only combat-capable force in the Thunder Ye Province except for Ji Bu's 10,000 people. However, now they must face the attack of enemies that are several times larger than their side.

give up!

Ma Jin can't do it.

This is not only because his sense of honor does not allow his military personnel, but also because once Bamiyan is lost, the Peacock** team can go straight to the Sailye City in the lower reaches of the Amu River along the Bamiyan Valley. If Bamiyan can block the enemy for a while, I believe Ji Bu will calmly gather the strength of the entire province, and reinforcements from the east and west will arrive before the cold weather is frozen.

Defending is not weakness.

Whether it is Ji Bu or Ma Jin, they are all generals who have been through the battlefield for a long time. They are already past the impulse. As long as the Shuye City is not lost, the Silk Road will not be interrupted. Ma Jin, who has made up his mind to stick to it, began to build one fortress barrier after another along the Bamiyang Valley. The thick loess here can easily dig out one cave after another, and these caves are the natural tunnels of the Qin army.

The mercenaries of Baicheng tribe led by Shili were obviously not adapted to the high and cold climate in the north. The laziness in the South Asians showed a thorough performance in the attack on Bamian's war. The 4,000 Qin troops led by Ma Jin blocked them step by step, blocking Sri's army for about ten days. It was not until November 13 that Sri's army began to break through the defense line in the outer city of Bamian.

The decline of Baicheng mercenaries made General Puciamidu very annoyed. This general from the Xunjia clan originally meant to use the Qin people to weaken his competitor Serry. But the current situation is difficult to get along. The weather in November, as soon as the Amu River brought it, it was already full of wind and snow.

South Asia has been drought and warm after years of drought, which is very different from the ice and snow in the north. After arriving in Bamiyan, the Indian army began to fear the weather here. For ordinary soldiers, especially the soldiers of the mercenary, the so-called struggle for power and profit of the big men has nothing to do with them, slaves and civilians. What they care about is that they can have a bite of food every day and fill their stomachs.

Pusiamido urged Sri to siege the city but failed. In anger, the ambitious general decided to change the siege troops. This time, he directly sent his own direct troops, the Battle Elephant Force of the Xunga tribe.

Elephant soldier.

It is a unique army in South Asia, a behemoth like elephants. It is suitable for surviving in tropical and subtropical jungles. They like to eat tender strips on broad-leaf branches. The Indians had examples of taming elephants serving humans around 2,000 BC. The establishment of the elephant troops traced back to the beginning of the establishment of the Mauryan Dynasty.

The elephant is huge in size and has a superb strength. Its general defensive formations and the target soldiers team does not play any role. Puciamido takes elephant soldiers as the leader, and what he values ​​is the deterrent power of the battle elephant rushing.

Bamian's city.

It is just a simple earth wall made of loess. Such a city wall is OK to deal with general infantry, but if it faces the battle elephant, it will not be enough.

On November 20th, in the city of Bamiyan.

After a series of hard battles, there were more than 2,200 Qin soldiers guarding, and it became increasingly difficult to defend the city. Although Ma Jin dispatched it from multiple parties, his troops were still not enough.

Up the city tower.

Ma Jin and several military marquis stood on a high place, watching the enemy camp in the valley.

"Ma Jiawei, the attacking troops have been replaced outside the city. Those cowardly Baicheng tribe members have retreated. Now the war elephants of the Xunjia tribe are coming up. Our city walls cannot withstand the impact of such a big guy." A big man with a beard among the marquis of the army said worriedly.

"Bamiyang cannot be abandoned. Even if we all die in battle, we must nail it here like a nail. If those brown-skinned aliens want to go to Thunder Ye City, they will step over me, Ma Jin. You all have heard it clearly. If there is a timid battle later, don't blame my Ma's for being ruthless?" Ma Jin widened his eyes and shouted at the Quebu Junhou.

"Don't worry, lieutenant, we will do our best." The military marquis heard Ma Jin's determination to fight, and each of them had a solemn expression and agreed in unison.

——.

Bamiyang was trapped in the siege of the enemy, and the Provincial People's Republic of China was in an emergency. Li Yuan received Ji Bu's urgent report in early November.

In the autumn of the 17th year of the Great Qin calendar, the Qin army was preparing for a new round of land offensive against Rome. To be honest, the Peacock Kingdom on the Indian Peninsula had the courage to fight against Qin, which Li Yuan ignored. Li Yuan really knew little about this nation known as the third in the South Asian subcontinent.

Rome was the most powerful Western power in the same era as the Qin State. Regarding its history, famous figures, including Scipio, Fabian, Mallor, Pompei, Caesar, Vodavi, and Anthony, are recorded in detail in Western history books, while the situation on the Indian Peninsula is different.

The ancient civilization born in the Ganges and Indus Rivers is a splendid culture that is as famous as civilizations such as Egypt, China, Greece, and Rome, but its influence is never comparable to the first four. The reason is that there has been no powerful and lasting dynasty on the Indian Peninsula. The only thing that left a deep impression on the world is their religion - Buddhism.

The Mauryan Dynasty unified most of the peninsula during the Ashoka period, but the time was very short. After Ashoka's death, the Mauryan Dynasty also declined. According to historical development, the guy Giant Car was the last king, and his death was only in the past few years.

A country that is about to die is naturally not within Li Yuan's sight. The Qin Dynasty's targets are always aimed at the most powerful opponent. This time, the Indians jumped out to bleed from the Qin artery, and Li Yuan naturally would not let this potential opponent go.

The crisis in the Thunder Ye City made the seemingly powerful Qin State suddenly fall into a dilemma.

In the entire Central Asia and the Middle East, the war has begun to ignite. The differences between yellow and white people, the living habits and personal beliefs of Eastern and Western nations cannot be eliminated in a short period of time. The sudden attack of the Indian Peacock Kingdom was like a bomb that exploded at a fixed point, which suddenly detonated all the unstable factors on the long Silk Road.

On the Persian Plateau, those Persians who were unwilling to lose their power began to constantly attack the pavilion station established by Qin. On the Syrian Plateau, the descendants of the Assyrians also raised the banner of resistance. Their purpose was to expel the Qin people and restore the kingdoms of their ancestors.

The Western Regions of the Great Qin Dynasty.

Wars were everywhere. In such a situation, although the Qin Western Expedition troops were strong, if they did not withdraw from the European front, there would be insufficient troops to return to Suye City and quell the wars in various provinces.

Mid November.

After urgently summoning the strategists and generals to discuss, Li Yuan issued an emergency order in Xin'an City. The westward army led by Luo Jia and Cao Xin was 80,000, and together with Thracian general Spartacus, 20,000 mercenaries, continued to guard Macedonia and the Greek Peninsula. At the same time, the Han Xin army, which was oppressing the Germans and Saxons, continued to maintain its momentum of pressure on the Nordic peoples, and strived to squeeze the barbarians in the north towards the Roman border as soon as possible.

At the same time, about 60,000 soldiers were drawn from the second line to form a reinforcing army. Among the support troops, a group of young generals including Yang Yu, Zhou Ping, Han Anguo, Feng Tang, Li Shang, etc. They were directly commanded by Li Yuan himself to prepare to cross the Persian Plateau and follow the route of Alexander the Great to conquer the Indus River and encircle the retreat of the Mauryan Dynasty.

It is impolite to come but not come.
