Chapter 524 The Real Fear of Daqin
Meanwhile, Carthage and Rome engaged the defenses.
Hannibal walked up and down in his camp, sighing angrily from time to time, looking very irritable.
It turned out that, just as Scipio had guessed, the Carthaginian nobles got the news that Scipio had married Daqin, especially after knowing that the marriage partner was the legendary Prince Yingyu, they were immediately caught Scared out of my wits!
After all, the Great Qin Prince's reputation is too great, especially the methods he used to conquer the kingdoms are simply frightening.
When Ying Yu was not the Prince of Qin, he successfully defeated the Xiongnu with more than [-] cavalry in just a few months. Even a big country like the Peacock Dynasty could not withstand his attack, and it fell apart in a short time , was completely captured by Daqin.
Therefore, the nobles of Carthage immediately issued an order to retreat to Hannibal, for fear that he would provoke Qin and the invincible God of Killing because of his attack on Scipio.
As a result, Carthage became a follower of the Huns and the Mauryan Dynasty.
That's why there was the scene where Hannibal sighed just now.
At this moment, Hannibal's adjutant entered the camp from the outside.
"Have you done everything I told you to do?"
Seeing the adjutant, Hannibal immediately asked.
"Return to Your Excellency, it's done.
Most of the Roman spies who sneaked into my Carthaginian army have been investigated, and after learning their spies' identities, I deliberately sent them false news that we are going to withdraw. According to time estimates, the news is now It should have passed to Scipio's office. "
"There are still a small number of people whose identities cannot be determined for the time being. I have found a reason to transfer them to some unimportant positions, so that they will neither become suspicious nor spy on our army's intelligence."
The adjutant reported to Hannibal.
"Then what about the main force that I asked you to mobilize, you should have settled it properly, right?"
Hannibal asked again.
"Yes, my subordinates have moved part of the main force of our army to places outside the line of defense, making it look like we are about to retreat."
"And according to your request, the subordinate just asked them to go around in a circle there. After they evacuated and stayed outside the defense line for a few days, the subordinate ordered them to come back quietly along the valley and other hidden places. At this moment They are lurking not far from the defense line, and they will come as soon as the order is given."
The adjutant replied.
"Well, you did a great job."
After getting the adjutant's answer, Hannibal nodded in approval.
"Your Excellency, the false news has spread, do you think Scipio will believe that we have withdrawn?"
The adjutant hesitated slightly, but still asked.
"If it was the former Scipio, he would definitely not believe it. Instead, he would think that this is my strategy, and then strengthen the defensive circle of the Roman army, shrinking it into a tortoise shell, and making my surprise attack plan come to nothing."
"But now Scipio is different. He is married to Daqin, and he already has Daqin, the strongest backer in the world. His strength is stronger than before. I don't know how many grades. When a weak person becomes stronger At that time, his vigilance will also be lowered."
"Coupled with the fact that Rome is in dire straits today, and countless political affairs are still waiting for Scipio to deal with, his judgment will become much weaker in this exhausted situation."
"Therefore, even if Scipio had doubts about the news that my Carthaginian army was withdrawing, there was nothing he could do. The numerous government affairs left him with little energy to think about the battle situation. He is too busy right now."
Hannibal's simple words almost fully analyzed Scipio's psychology.
It has to be said that the person who knows you best is often your opponent.
This is the case with Hannibal and Scipio. They have studied each other very thoroughly. Basically, it can be said that when the other person raises his hand, the other person immediately knows what he wants to do.
"The general is indeed an old opponent who has been with Scipio for so many years, and even his thoughts are so thorough!"
"If the general joins hands with Scipio, you will have a good understanding. With the talents of the two of you, you may be able to compete with the prince of Daqin!"
The adjutant said with a smile.
"You can't talk nonsense, not to mention the current situation, it is impossible for me to join forces with Scipio."
"Furthermore, even if I really join forces with Scipio, with the strength of the two of us, it is absolutely impossible to be the opponent of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Daqin."
Hannibal said very seriously, with a serious expression on his face.
"Is that Prince Qin really so powerful? You and Scipio can't do it together?"
The adjutant couldn't believe it.
After all, he gets along with Hannibal every day, and he knows how terrifying Hannibal's command ability and grasp of combat opportunities are.
If it wasn't for the fact that the Carthaginian nobles were too stupid, he believed that Hannibal would definitely be able to lead the Carthaginian army to conquer all directions and achieve a military legend!
Since Scipio was as famous as His Royal Highness Hannibal, and was able to stand up to the Carthaginian army with His Royal Highness Hannibal sitting in the same court, his wisdom and strategy would certainly not be much worse than His Royal Highness Hannibal.
Handsome talents like them are rare in almost a hundred years. If the two of them really have the opportunity to cooperate, they will definitely be peerless twins who can amaze an era.
But it is such a person who actually admires the Great Qin Prince so much, and even feels that he and Scipio are far inferior to him?
How terrifying is this Prince Qin?
"What is really scary is not the prince of Daqin, but the state of Qin, those soldiers of the Qin army who are not afraid of death, and the incredible scheme!"
"As for the Great Qin Prince, his military talent is indeed terrifying. Every battle he leads is like his personal show, and the opponent is completely manipulated by him!"
"You know, his opponents are not those small countries. Whether it is the Huns at the beginning or the Maurya Dynasty later, they are all big countries that can stand shoulder to shoulder with my Carthage!"
"The most important thing is that although Great Qin at that time had demonstrated the demeanor of a powerful country, it was far from reaching the current level, and the gap with other countries was not as different as it is now. Even the Great Qin Prince When fighting the Xiongnu, Qin's military strength was even weaker than that of the Xiongnu."
"Such a character, coupled with the powerful Qin army, even if I join forces with Scipio, and Carthage and Rome are allied, they will not be able to resist."
Hannibal sighed deeply.
When the adjutant heard the words, his expression couldn't help but startled.
Before, he only knew that Ying Yu was very capable of invention and creativity, and although he also had military talent, it was far less outstanding than his other aspects, so he didn't pay too much attention to Ying Yu's being regarded as a military god.
Now that he heard Hannibal say that, the adjutant finally realized that he was sitting on the sidelines.
