Chapter 687: Octavian

In the Mediterranean Sea, a huge fleet is sailing through the waves on the blue sea.

Eagle flags are fluttering in the wind, and ships and sails are moving forward in the sea. A soldier is wearing uniform armor, holding a shield in his left hand, a short sword hanging on his waist, and a uniform on his head. helmet, standing silently on the deck looking at the blue sea level ahead. They set off from Sicily, with a total of more than 300 large and small warships, close to 400. There are more than 30,000 soldiers on board, each of whom is an elite fighter who has experienced many battles. Following one excellent commander after another, they conquered one nation after another, piece of land, and raised Rome from a small city-state to an empire spanning three continents, Europe, Asia and Africa. Now, they will once again step into the battle to conquer a land that is the oldest in history, and it is also the first civilization born in the world since the beginning of human beings.

The influence of this civilization is undoubtedly extremely far-reaching. In the past few thousand years, it has continuously spread the light of civilization to the outside world. One ignorant nation after another, one ignorant region after another, has been brought into civilization from the state of primitive ignorance. Whether it is ancient Egypt, ancient Greece, ancient Babylon or ancient Sumer, they are more or less influenced by it. Especially in Europe, it can be called the beacon and cradle of civilization.

Its system, culture, economy, military, science and other aspects have far-reaching influence. Many nations, regions, countries, and civilizations obtained civilization from him at the beginning, and then these nations and countries created their own civilization achievements on the basis of it. This ancient land is as old as its history, and the people living on it are as old as the land. Thousands of years have passed, the world has experienced countless ups and downs, many civilizations, countries and nations were born, rose and died. But only, this oldest civilization is still alive for thousands of years.

Even though in history, many powerful countries or nations tried to conquer it and rule this ancient land, no one has ever succeeded. Without exception, they all failed. And now, another unbelieving latecomer wants to defeat this myth. It wants to conquer this land, to prove itself to the former and future successors, that their own civilization is the best. Rather than the ancient civilization in front of them, they believe and believe that the ancient products of the old era are difficult to adapt to the next rules of the game in today's world. It should be kicked out of the game and ruled by yourself.

At the same time, it also announced to the world that the name of the creator of the new game is Rome.

It took hundreds of years for Rome to expand from a small city-state to a huge territory spanning three continents, Europe, Asia and Africa, bit by bit, step by step. With the weakening of the republic and the rule of the military, Rome entered a stage of rapid expansion. The leaders who have emerged one after another are all talented military leaders. Before there was Julius Caesar, and now there is Octavian, who is Caesar's nephew and grandson and was adopted by Caesar as his heir.

After Caesar was assassinated, he stepped onto the political stage and formed the "rear triumvirate" with Antony and Lepidus. He and Antony defeated the republican leaders Brutus and Cassie in the Battle of Philippi, and then he deprived Lepidus of the military power, defeated Antony in the Battle of Aktu, eliminated Ptolemy Egypt, and began to control all countries after returning to Rome power. Afterwards, he was confirmed as a 'Lifetime Tribune', and then he was awarded the title of 'Grand Marshal', and was later awarded the title of 'Augustus' by the Senate. And reorganized the Roman government, bringing two centuries of peace and prosperity to the Roman world.

Octavian has successively obtained the titles of consul, tribune, and high priest, and is actually the emperor of Rome. In order to strengthen the rule, the army was reformed and the mercenary system was implemented; the Praetorian Guards were established and stationed in Rome and Italy. Continue to expand abroad, complete the conquest of Spain westward, and advance northward to the Danube and Rhine rivers.

He is good at judging the situation, advances and retreats with restraint, is quick-witted and decisive, cautious and steady. The series of domestic and foreign policies he adopted in line with the situation created a relatively stable political situation and laid the foundation for the prosperity of the early empire.

Although he completed a series of expansion and conquest activities successively, when he looked at the Mediterranean Sea, he found that there was still a piece of land that had not been brought under Roman rule.

At the beginning, although Rome's national power developed rapidly in the process of external expansion and mergers. However, due to the lessons learned from the past, Rome at that time had no intention of conquering the ancient ancient country of Tutheim in the Mediterranean Sea. But now, Rome has eliminated a series of enemies successively, expanded its territory to the limit, and consolidated its power in successive civil wars. Full support, foreign expansion policy. The power of Rome and the strength of its martial arts are daunting.

As for Octavian, he was the commander-in-chief who was killed from the mountain of corpses and the sea of ​​blood. Although he was a soldier, he was also a politician. His desire to conquer did not stop with Rome's stability and its own power. When he looked around the territory of Rome, he discovered that the land that had been neglected by Rome had not yet been conquered. Coupled with the birthplace of this ancient civilization, there have been too many legends from ancient times to the present. And in history, such a well-known monarch once thought of conquering this place, but that heroic and heroic monarch smashed his halberd in front of this small island and stopped with hatred.

Whether it was Ramses in ancient Egypt, the city-state coalition forces of Greece, the attempted invasion of the Sea Peoples, the conquest of Alexander, and the subsequent successors Seleucus and Ptolemy, they all tried to conquer here. However, these great human beings have great talents in human history. In the face of this small island country in a corner, they have hatred one by one. Let this place be covered with unconquerable labels and colors for a while. As for Octavian today, he believes that Rome under his rule far surpasses any great country in history.

There are tens of millions of people under Roman rule, and Rome can easily mobilize an army of more than 100,000. The entire Mediterranean Sea has now become Rome's bathtub, and how can an island country with a population of several million stop Rome's footsteps? Even though he has seen too many records and descriptions about this ancient dynasty in history, these are simply unstoppable, or what he thinks are just excuses and fig leaves for the losers to make for themselves.

Therefore, after the gradual end of foreign conquest, Rome's national situation showed a prosperous and peaceful time. Octavian's order was issued, and he ordered his general Tiberius to lead nearly 400 ships and an army of more than 30,000 people to attack. Prepare to wipe out the naval forces of the Tuthem Dynasty in one fell swoop. After that, a steady stream of brave and skilled Roman troops will land on this island country. Thus completing the great achievements of the ancestors in one fell swoop, and thoroughly laying down the glory of Rome.
