After listening to what the executive officer Hu Cong said, and looking at his expression at this time, Scipio instantly understood the reason why the executive officer Hu Cong had such a big emotion.

It was not so much that he was angry that the number of Great Qin reinforcements was too small, but that he was angry that the future prospects of Rome were dark.

After all, Rome is in a terrible state today!

Under the leadership of Hannibal, the Carthaginian army defeated their Roman army, both in terms of strategy and combat ability, it can be said that they completely defeated the Roman army.

And with this momentum, the Carthaginian army has captured several cities in Rome one after another, approaching their Roman capital!

But even so, the nobles of Rome still maintained an attitude of procrastination and inaction.

Because of the "463" reason, in their opinion, the Carthaginian army occupied some innocuous cities, and if they lost them, they would lose them, and there was no need to risk sacrificing their family's private army.

Not to mention the object of the rescue, or Scipio, who has been against them every time and again, and has greatly touched or even weakened the aristocratic economy.

In any case, as long as the flames of war do not burn on them and do not touch their interests, they will always look like they have nothing to do with themselves.

No matter how many inconsequential cities he lost, how many heroic Roman soldiers died, how many Roman people were displaced by the war, and how many families were ruined, these were completely floating clouds in front of this group of selfish nobles.

In this situation, the subjects of Rome had already lost confidence in the Roman military.

It was at this time that Great Qin was about to send an army to Rome to assist Rome in exterminating Hannibal's Carthaginian army.

As a result, many people who no longer had any hope for the regular Roman army and nobles began to look forward to the arrival of reinforcements from Great Qin.

Although the consul Hu Cong was not among these people, as a high-ranking Roman official, he was more and more aware of the current bad situation in Rome, so his heart was the same as these people, and he also thought that the Great Qin reinforcements could arrive earlier.

After all, today's Great Qin is well-known in the world, and no matter how it is evaluated from any place, it definitely belongs to the ranks of the world's top powers, and even in some aspects, Great Qin can be called the first in the world.

And the most famous thing about Great Qin is that in addition to their blossoming and extremely advanced science and technology, and the manufacturing of Great Qin, which has spread and swept all over the world, there is also their army.

Since the Great Qin army has undergone the reform and reconstruction of Fusu, coupled with the improvement of many military regulations and military regulations, the combat effectiveness of the Great Qin army has soared.

First, it broke through the Xiongnu military land that had plagued Great Qin for hundreds of years in one fell swoop, and then destroyed the Peacock Empire, which had always been eyeing Great Qin, and the Great Qin army completed the leap from the middle level to the world's top army almost overnight!

Even as long as Fusu is the commander-in-chief of the Great Qin army, the Great Qin army can have it in all aspects, and it is the absolute number one army in the world.

The speed of progress is nothing short of miraculous.

And most importantly, today's Great Qin army has gone through hundreds of battles, big and small, and has won every battle, and has never tasted defeat so far! Such a record is simply incredible, even terrifying!

Coupled with the status of the in-law state between Great Qin and Rome, this made all the Roman subjects who had been completely disappointed or even desperate with the high-level nobles of Rome have great expectations for Great Qin's reinforcements.

It can be said that almost everyone in the Roman army, including the executive officers and servants, was waiting for the arrival of reinforcements from Great Qin, waiting for them to come and lead the army to save Rome from danger!

However, after seeing the message passed by Scipio Jr., the executive was completely stunned.

He originally thought that with the card of the world's most powerful country in Great Qin, the number of soldiers sent out should not be several times that of the Carthaginian army, but at least there should be an army of 200,000 or something.

But as a result, the reinforcements sent by Daqin are not even 200,000, not even 100,000 troops!

Even with the full calculation and logistics support personnel, there are only 50,000 soldiers in total!

The number of soldiers in his ideal Great Qin reinforcements is too different from the actual number of soldiers in the Great Qin reinforcements, from 200,000 to 50,000, such a big gap, the executive officer Hu Cong naturally can't accept it.0

Moreover, the reason why the executive officer Hu Cong was so angry, in addition to being dissatisfied with the small number of reinforcements sent by Great Qin, in the final analysis, was because he did not want to see their Rome broken under the attack of the Carthaginian army.

After all, the Great Qin reinforcements only had 50,000 soldiers, and even if the remaining Roman army was integrated into everything, the total duke was only less than 100,000, how could he resist Hanni Bat's 200,000 Carthaginian army!

No matter how strong the combat effectiveness of the Great Qin soldiers was, it was impossible to fill such a big gap at once. []

"Actually, you don't have to be so angry,"

"To tell you the truth, when I saw that the reinforcements sent to my Rome by Daqin were only 50,000, I was just like you, and I was also dissatisfied and angry in my heart, but soon I thought about it. "

"Although Daqin said that he and my Rome are related to the country by law, there is no rule that as long as the country by law wants to ask for help, it must help. "

"It can be said that the willingness of Great Qin to help us with this, and the willingness to send troops to help at such a critical moment in Rome is already considered to be benevolent and righteous, and we are not going to demand the number of reinforcements from Great Qin. "

"And the fact that there are too few soldiers in the Great Qin reinforcements is not necessarily a bad thing. "

0.7 Unlike the consuls, Scipio's state of mind was obviously more peaceful.

After all, the consul Hu Cong was still young, and after experiencing a little wind and waves, he couldn't help but start shouting vigorously, and many emotions were still floating on the surface.

Scipio, on the other hand, is already a veteran of the decade, so it can be said that he has already experienced everything.

Not to mention the small number of reinforcements, even Scipio had experienced the days when there were no reinforcements, if it weren't for the fact that it was a critical time for Rome, Scipio wouldn't have cared much about this kind of thing at all.

"Good thing, Lord Scipio, have you forgotten that Great Qin looked down on Hannibal's Carthaginian army, and the number of soldiers in the entire support army, plus the logistics troops, was only 50,000!"
