Xianyang City, Dianke Office

"What should we do now?"

"The Crown Prince of Da Qin has rejected all our invitations, claiming that there is nothing to discuss unless we agree to the conditions previously proposed."

"Nowadays, we even need to pay for the food and clothing we live here by ourselves. Da Qin’s attitude couldn’t be more obvious."

Prince Perseus of Macedonia looked at Ptolemy V and Carthage's treasury officer Sulla in front of him with a sad look on his face.

"How about we try to contact the Romans?"

"It is said that the Roman envoys are about to arrive in Xianyang City."

"If we can join forces with the Romans, we may not be able to keep the Qin people out of the Mediterranean."

"After all, they are too far away from the Persian County they call it!"

"Moreover, it is impossible for their fleet to directly reach the Mediterranean area."

Ptolemy V hesitated and said.

Perseus and Sulla looked at each other with horror in their eyes.

This idea of Ptolemy V is very dangerous.

If it is just his own intention , that can only mean that Ptolemaic Egypt has no hope for the future.

If Ptolemy IV thinks the same way, then Ptolemaic Egypt really has to be on guard.

Otherwise, at the critical moment, Ptolemaic Egypt will give them behind their backs Neither Macedonia nor Carthage could bear the attack.

The two men quickly dealt with Ptolemy V casually, and then found another place to discuss.

"No wonder the Crown Prince of Qin looks down on us. Now, even I have almost given up hope."

"I think that Ptolemy I was considered a wise ruler at the beginning, but now in just a hundred years, he has fallen to this."

Perseus sighed.

Sulla also secretly smiled bitterly in his heart.

Ptolemy V's words of betrayal are certainly hateful, but you are also the prince of Macedonia and the future heir. Is it really not a problem to be so pessimistic at all times? ?

Thinking of the Seleucid Kingdom that had completely sold itself to the Qin Dynasty, Sulla couldn't help but feel a little desperate.

What kind of pig teammates are these allies of the Carthage Kingdom?

Each one is more deceitful than the last.

No wonder the Romans The troops on the Macedonian-Seleucid front line are much smaller than those on the Carthage front line, but they can always gain an advantage. It's not that the Romans are too strong, but that their teammates are so stupid! It's no wonder that the Qin people don't look down on them at all.

The Romans who the Qin people could defeat were groveling, and it was natural for them to look down upon Macedonia and other countries that the Romans were trying to beat. According to Sulla's estimation, as long as the

Qin people continued to exert pressure, the Pearl in front of them would Hughes, there is a high probability that he will really succumb.

Although Macedonia has declined at present, it is the orthodoxy of the former Alexander Empire after all. Once it surrenders to the Qin people like the Seleucid Kingdom, the Qin people's pace of going deep into the Mediterranean may never be reached again. It can't be stopped!

The Carthaginians, who started out as sea traders, would not be as stupid as Ptolemy V. They thought that geographical environment alone could restrict Qin's access to the Mediterranean Sea.

Yes, between the Persian Gulf and the Mediterranean Sea, there is Separated by land hundreds of miles away, the fleet cannot reach it for the time being.

But won't the people of Great Qin build a shipyard on the shore of the Mediterranean and start building a fleet again?

With the terrifying shipbuilding capabilities of Great Qin seen along the way, only I am afraid that within a few years, an unimaginably powerful fleet will appear on the Mediterranean Sea.

By then, not only the Romans, but also the Carthaginians will have to look up to the Qin Dynasty.

The only thing they can count on now is the Qin Dynasty The mainland is still too far away from the enclave of Persia County. It is so far away that the people of Great Qin are likely to deal with the countries on the way first, instead of directly attacking the Mediterranean countries.

After all, the people of Great Qin themselves have advocated in books, Distance and close attack are the best strategies

"I can't make the decision on this matter. I must report it to the Supreme Consul Sufit and have it voted on by the Senate!"

Sura thought for a long time and found an excuse.

"That’s all it can do!"

"I am also going to write back to my father for instructions."

Perseus still said with a sad look on his face.

Sulla felt even colder.

You said that you are also the future king of a country, can't you have some confidence?

Sulla hesitated for a long time, but still put his trust in the Kingdom of Macedonia and Trust. Lemi Egypt's judgment was written on the reply letter. I secretly prayed in my heart that the nobles in the Carthage Senate who were short-sighted and could betray even Hannibal would make a wise choice this time.......

In Songhai City, the Roman envoy Aemilius, who had just got off the ship, also had an anxious look on his face.

As one of the six oldest families in the entire city of Rome, the Aemilius family has a very high influence throughout Rome.

Scipio, the current chief consul of Rome, is from a branch of the Aemilius family.

However, due to this fiasco, Scipio, the chief consul, was questioned a lot. The other five major families joined forces to force the palace, trying to oust Scipio, re-elect the chief consul, and regain power.

Therefore, Aemilius came with Scipio's strict order this time. He must achieve reconciliation with Qin in the shortest possible time, so that Rome could withdraw from the direction of Seleucid in time and concentrate on dealing with Hannibal. Reestablish the prestige of the Aemilius family.

However, along the way, Aemilius clearly felt the unkind intentions of the people of Da Qin.

When he was in Persia County, he met Perseus and others, and together they boarded a ship heading to the mainland of Great Qin.

It's just that on this vast sea road, the ship where Perseus and others were on was always full sail and at full speed, but the ship on which Aemilius was was always taking his time.

According to the information that Aemilius had just found out, Perseus and others had arrived at the Imperial Capital of Qin a few days ago, seven or eight days ahead of him.

These seven or eight days are probably enough for Da Qin to reach an agreement with Perseus and others.

The Romans, as their opponents, had a sufficient understanding of the unbearable condition of the Kingdom of Macedonia and Ptolemaic Egypt.

Even during the war, the connection between the royal families of these two countries and the city of Rome was never severed.

This is true for Rome, and for the even more terrifying Great Qin, I'm afraid it might be a few more Seleucid kingdoms.

Now the only thing Aemilius can hope for is that the Carthaginians can continue to be as tough on the Qin as they were against Rome.

Otherwise, he might really live up to Scipio's expectations.
