Chapter 551 Daqin is an existence that needs to be looked up to
Today's Great Qin is an existence that countries all over the world look up to!
"Your Excellency the Consul said, especially that Ying Yu, since he became the Prince of Great Qin, the technological level of Great Qin has been improving day by day, especially their steel refining technology is so superb that it is unimaginable."
"According to what you have heard from Daqin from His Excellency Scipio, we in Rome are not at the same level as Daqin in terms of smelting level and smelting efficiency! We are still a bit difficult to smelt pig iron here, and the main thing is to apply it." In weapon making, bronze still dominates.”
"As for Daqin, even ironware has already been popularized, and higher-quality steel has become popular, not to mention Daqin has all kinds of magical utensils that I can't even imagine."
"Sometimes, I even doubt whether our Rome and Great Qin are countries in the same era, or why their Great Qin is developing with each passing day, and it is completely a scene of a technological capital, while our Rome is like A country that still lives in the old society, the difference between the two is simply heaven and earth!"
Hearing Scipio's emotion, the adjutant also sighed helplessly.
Daqin is really too powerful, that kind of feeling that it can crush you for an era in every aspect, so that you can't see any hope of surpassing it except for daunting it.
Being an enemy of such a country is like waking up from a dream at night!
"In addition to these, I also heard that Daqin is developing some secret weapon recently. It is said that it is extremely powerful. Once hit by that secret weapon head-on, even a dozen layers of leather armor will be destroyed instantly!"
"In order to prevent this secret weapon from going off accidentally, Daqin even specially stationed a steam fire truck around the training ground! Such a terrifying power makes people feel terrible just thinking about it!"
Speaking of this, Scipio's face could not hide his fear of Daqin.
The secret weapon he mentioned was of course firearms.
Ever since Ying Zheng saw the terrifying power of firearms, he immediately realized the significance of firearms for warfare.
So he directly ordered that Nei Stern lead people to build a secret base.
The main purpose of this secret base is to train soldiers in the skills of using firearms, such as the most critical accuracy and adaptable combat capabilities.
Moreover, in order to learn how to use firearms as soon as possible and quickly put them into actual combat, those training soldiers practiced on the training ground almost day and night.
Therefore, although Daqin protected the military secrets of firearms very well, this secret base was also specially built in the wild.
But the roar from the training ground from time to time, as well as the steam fire engines that had been staying nearby, still made many people suspicious.
"A secret weapon capable of destroying more than a dozen layers of leather armor at once? This power is terrifying! I'm afraid that even if the whole body is covered with iron armor, it will be crushed by this so-called secret weapon at once?"
"Could it be that such a terrifying weapon was also invented by Prince Ying Yu of Daqin? This is too amazing, even such a thing can be created!"
"Fortunately, Your Excellency Scipio, you had far-sightedness and dispatched Her Royal Highness Princess Sophie to marry Da Qin early on, and successfully married the most powerful and famous Crown Prince Ying Yu."
"Otherwise, if we let Rome face such a powerful enemy, I'm afraid we won't even have the slightest chance of winning. Even if they don't take action against Rome for the time being, we can only live in fear and anxiety all day long. .”
The adjutant admired Scipio's foresight more and more.
"Foresight is not really considered, and I didn't think so much at the time, but because the Carthaginian army was pressing every step of the way, and our Rome was in turmoil, so I wanted to give it to Rome, or to my Scipio family. It's just a matter of finding a strong enough ally, that's why I asked my son to bring Sophie to Qin State in the name of a mission."
"It is precisely because of this that my nephew brought me all kinds of news about Daqin, and I realized that Daqin's strength has far exceeded my imagination!"
"Originally, I thought that Great Qin was only strong in military ability, enough to completely crush us in terms of war, but who knew that Great Qin was also so powerful in agriculture, governance and other aspects, which is not what we in Rome have at all. Comparable!"
"That's when I realized that I picked up a big deal myself!
At this time, Scipio's heart was also full of rejoicing.
Since he became the Supreme Consul, he has done many things that are beneficial to the country, and he has also done many wrong things, but marrying Daqin is undoubtedly the most correct thing he has done now. no.
Especially my own daughter, who is still married to the unparalleled Great Qin Prince His Royal Highness!
Scipio had always admired and revered Ying Yu.
In the past, Scipio thought he was a genius and despised all the so-called political and military strategists around him. Only Hannibal of Carthage could be looked up to by him.
It wasn't until he learned about Ying Yu's deeds that he realized that there really is such a perfect all-rounder in the world, and his own ability is not even as good as Ying Yu's finger!
With his ability to create miracles, Scipio has no doubt that under his leadership, Daqin will become an empire that has never been seen before, and it is almost impossible for there to be an empire on which the sun never sets!
At that time, as Ying Yu's father-in-law, he may be lucky enough to be honored with this honor and leave his name in history with him!
"However, Your Excellency the Consul, I am very puzzled by one thing."
"That is, since we in Rome have such a deep understanding of the strength of the Great Qin, even if Hannibal of Carthage had never visited the Great Qin, he should have heard about the current strength of the Great Qin."
"With the current strength of Great Qin, its anger is simply not something that Carthage, which is now in decline, can bear. Why did Hannibal disobey the retreat order of their Carthage nobles and personally lead the army against us? What about a raid on a Roman frontline fortress?"
"Although this was a glorious moment, relying on the occupied fortresses, our Roman army was caught in a dilemma, and it greatly eased the tension in Carthage's foreign wars, but it also offended Daqin, which is tantamount to Drinking poison to quench thirst, doesn't Hannibal even understand this truth?"
The consul Qi Cong was very puzzled by this.
