City Calle 53 BC in the afternoon sun is particularly bleak, because garrison here in Roman conquests Legion The remaining troops have been surrounded by the great legion of the Parthors, and the rations and drinking water in the city have already bottomed out. Seeing the sad face of his subordinates who have been fighting with him for many years, an old man in his sixties was lost in thought. I still remember how brilliant he was on the battlefield of Aprilia sixteen years ago. The legendary hero Spartacus and sixty thousand (60,000 men) slave rebels, in The legionary offensive he commanded was finally wiped out, the ancient Roman Republic continued, and he became an idol worshipped by all Roman people. But today, he has become the target of Qianfu, the spokesperson of the god of death. In order to seize the last glimmer of hope, he commanded the remaining Legionnaires to forcefully break through the defenses of the Parthians. However, the courage to regard death as home was unable to make up for the huge disadvantage in numbers. Almost all the Roman soldiers who broke through were killed in battle, and the old man also He was successfully captured by the Parthians and executed by the army, and his mouth was filled with hot golden water. Whenever looking back on this period of history, many people always feel sorry for the fall of the Roman Legion. So, how did this old man send the legion to hell? Who is he? Yes, this old man is a famous military strategist and politician in the history of ancient Rome—Marcus Licinius Crassus (Marcus Licinius Crassus).

In fact, speaking of Kelasu’s life trajectory, use "late bloom" It's not an exaggeration to describe it. According to "Greek Roman Celebrities Biography" and "罗马史" written by 普鲁塔克 and 李维, Krasu was born in 115 BC A noble family in Rome, his father Publius Crassus (Publius Crassus) Before Crassus was born, he was already known as the richest man and a member of the Roman Senate, so Crassus was A typical child born with a golden key. Perhaps due to the influence of family education, Crassou has cultivated the mind and sense of smell that an outstanding businessman should have since he was a child. He is fascinated in studying how to obtain a greater bargaining chip in the game of interests, and also tried to get involved in the political field. It’s just that the good times didn’t last long, because his father Publius Krasu chose to stand Lucius CorneIius Sulla (Lucius CorneIius Sulla) 0d9ed in the factional battle in the Senate.#’S camp, so the entire Klasu family suffered from the suppression of the political enemy Gaius Marius (Gaius Marius) , even in 87 BC, Lucius Cornelius ·Lucius Cornelius Cinna (Lucius Cornelius Cinna) openly united with the forces of the Marian faction, and took advantage of Sura’s army to march to the east Mitradati VI (King of the Kingdom of Pontus) to exercise dictatorship in Rome, The members of the Sura faction were hunted and killed. At the age of twenty-eight (28), Crasu had to flee the city of Rome and flee to the Sura base camp in the province of Africa. The moment when he joined the Sura army, it marked the official start of Krasu's military career. With his extraordinary strategy and military exploits, Krasu quickly gained Sura’s trust, and in the spring of 83 BC, he followed Sura’s army to land on 布隆迪西乌姆 on the southern Italian peninsula, and then attacked Rome. city. On the one hand, Crassus, who returned to Rome, actively assisted Sura to consolidate the noble oligarchsThe construction of the political power, on the other hand, used his excellent businessmen's mind to gradually accumulate huge amounts of money through clever buying and selling at low prices, commercial speculation, overseas trade, and asset mergers. It is said that the silver mines and slaves under Kethula’s name There are countless properties such as houses, houses, etc., making him the richest man in the ancient Roman Republic at that time.

But with Sura’s death in 78 BC, There was another struggle in Roman politics. But it's not over yet. In 73 BC, the largest slave uprising in the ancient history of the world-斯巴达克斯蛇uprising broke out, causing a violent shock to the entire ancient Roman Republic. The slave rebel army headed by Spartacus called for and took in exiled slaves, bankrupt peasants and miners who were unwilling to endure Roman rule. They looted and slaughtered Roman nobles and landlords, and the number of rebels in a short period of time It swelled to 60,000 (60,000). In the spring of 72 BC, Spartacus led a reorganized slave rebel army towards Applia (Apulia) and Lukania (Lucania) in the Republic, and the Roman elders who received the war report The courtyard was extremely panicked and hurriedly ordered the consul Leturus and Galius to jointly lead the Roman legions against Spartacus. Spartacus knew very well that the Roman Legion was coming on fiercely, and the head-on confrontation might not be able to take advantage, so he led the rebel army along 亚德里亚海 northward, using tricks and mobile tactics to defeat the following ones. The two Roman legions, and then successfully defeated the army led by Cassius (Cassius) Governor in the Battle of Mortina, and the rebel army reached its peak. After learning the news that the Legion had been defeated repeatedly, the Roman Senate declared a state of emergency and asked Crassus, who was busy doing business development, to lead the newly assembled Roman Legion to suppress it. This is really smoke from the ancestral grave! I was very distressed that there was no chance to make merits, but now the Senate has thrown the power of the army on itself. How can I be worthy of my ambition if I don't make good use of it? So Krasu immediately rectified the army and vowed to restore the family's past glory.

The Roman Senate sent 2 legions to suppress the Spartacus Uprising
Just when the Roman Senate was frightened by the slave uprising, a fatal crack appeared inside the rebel army. Spartacus himself was a Thracian, and he advocated that large forces should cross the Alps and enter the Gaul region, with the purpose of getting rid of the pursuit of the ancient Roman Republic in order to seek the next development. However, a considerable number of Italians in the rebel army did not want to leave their hometown. Their original intention of participating in the uprising was to regain lost land. Therefore, the insurrection army split into two parts, some of them left the main force of the army without authorization under the leadership of another slave leader Chris(克里斯) and marched towards southern Italy, but unfortunately they were led by Crassus and others. The group hits right. So at the foot of the mountain of 加尔加诺峰, the 30,000 (30,000 men) rebels that broke away from the large army were besieged and killed by the Roman army, and the whole army was wiped out. After hearing the news, Spartacus saw that the friendly army was annihilated, and had nothing to do, so he had no choice but to lead the remaining insurgents to continue towards AlpSi Shan advances. If Spartacus sticks to the original plan and successfully crosses the Alps, perhaps world history will be rewritten, but in reality this assumption did not happen. For some reason, Spartacus suddenly changed its direction while crossing the Alps and swept south and bypassed the city of Rome. In the autumn of the same year, the insurgents were assembled at 布鲁蒂乌姆 Peninsula in southern Italy in an attempt to beg in Cili. With the aid of Asian pirates, they crossed the Strait of Messina and arrived in Sicily. However, the pirates who had repeatedly promised to help the insurgents cross the sea turned back and refused to provide any assistance. Spartacus's attempt to build a raft failed, and tens of thousands of insurgents were tied to Brutium. On the peninsula. Seeing Spartacus and others sighing and sighing, Krasu was overjoyed. This was a good time to close the door and hit the dog. So he ordered the Roman soldiers to build a large trench with walls facing the sea at both ends ( The length is about 56 kilometers, the width and depth are about 4.7 meters), and it is expected to trap the insurgents to death. Spartacus saw from a distance that the Romans were doing things openly. Knowing that if they did not move, the army would be wiped out. So he led the insurgents to fill the trenches with mud and trees, and the Romans broke out across the wall. The battle for It may be the effect of the desire to survive and the immense hatred of the Romans. After losing about 80% of their troops, the insurgents successfully broke through the well-designed defense line of Crassus and were able to escape from the battlefield. Crassou saw a large number of soldiers fleeing from the trenches to the rear. During the scene, he was so angry but helpless, he could only watch the duck flying away.
The slave rebels and the Roman legions are in a fierce battle#古罗马重步兵方阵
Kelasu never forgets to practice martial arts and looks forward to one day to build his career It was heavy, but after all, the insurgents had a wide range of sources and it was relatively easy to supplement, so the Spartacus team quickly recovered to 70,000 people (70,000). In the spring of 71 BC, the insurgents marched eastward, and their soldiers pointed directly at the famous port in southern Italy-布林迪西, hoping to cross the sea to Greece by boat and get rid of the Roman forces. At this time, it was the second year since the outbreak of the slave uprising. In these two years, Spartacus and others have almost traversed the entire Italian peninsula, disturbing the ancient Roman Republic, and also the army that went to suppress it. More defeats than less, this makes the Senate very angry. Since you want to play a big one, then come on. If you don't show your power, you really treat the Romans as a sick cat! Therefore, the Senate issued two assembly orders in the east and west directions, and one was sent to Marcus Lukuruz(玛库斯·卢库鲁斯)junzhong who was still fighting against the Pontus Kingdom on the Balkan Peninsula. The papers were sent to Gnaius Pompey (格奈尔斯·Pompey) army located in the Spanish peninsula, and they were ordered to immediately lead their troops back to China, and together with the army of Crassus, suppress the slave rebels in Spartacus. . The Romans are finally here! Once these three forces successfully join forces, the rebel army will be completely destroyed. In order to prevent the reunion of the Roman army, Spartacus, with a determination to die, resolutely led the rebel army northward to take the initiative to meet the Krasu Army, thereby disrupting their plan. In the summer of 69 BC, Spartacus and Crasu finally met on the battlefield in southern Apulia. Crasu, who hated Spartacus, gave full play to his advantages in numbers and combat readiness, and launched a fierce attack on the rebels. Even though it had long been clear that the battle was fierce, Spartacus still fought hard on the front line, slashing the enemy with a sharp sword, so that the whole body was covered with blood. However, individual bravery could not change the battlefield situation after all. Sixty thousand insurgents were defeated, and the entire battlefield lay dead, and Spartacus himself died due to exhaustion. Those surviving insurgents were either mass murdered by the legions led by Pompeo and others, or were nailed to the cross on both sides of the road to Gapua, or fled into the mountains to continue their struggle. In short, the once vigorous slave uprising came to an end, and Krasu also passedThe victory over the decisive battle in Apulia has won a huge reputation and political bargaining chips, and has become a hot hero of the Republic.

60 BC, Gaius Julius Caesar (Gaius Julius Caesar) was elected as the consul of the Republic through the Centuria Congress. Although he was younger than Crassus, Caesar was a politician who was not inferior to Crassus and Pompey. He was keenly aware that the ancient Roman Republic had come to an end, which was a good opportunity to show his personal ambition. Therefore, under his needlework, Crassou and Pompeo reconciled and promised not to exclude and fight each other, and Caesar also married his fourteen-year-old (14-year-old) daughter Julia(朱莉娅) to Pang Training to consolidate the relationship between the two parties. With the help of superb political means, Pompeo, Crassou and Caesar signed an alliance and formed an alliance, known in history as the "top three alliance." With the support of Pompey’s army and the help of the wealth of Crassus, Caesar monopolized the power, so that after the end of the consul’s term, he was granted 山北高卢 (the area of southern France today) and 伊利里Asia (today the Balkan Peninsula is near the coast of the Adriatic Sea) The opportunity of the governorship of the two places to launch a full-scale war against Gaul. It took nine years to occupy the entire Gaul region and greatly expanded the ancient Roman Republic. territory. Seeing Caesar's military merits, his reputation in the country increased day by day, Krasu's heart slowly became complicated. Although he has a great wealth and enviable power, these still cannot offset his yearning for the battlefield. In Rome, a country that rules the country by force, it is so proud to be able to get Triumphus (凯旋式) once. And Krasu does not want Caesar's status to be too high, because this will become a huge hidden danger in the future. Therefore, Krasu submitted to the Roman Senate several times a document to declare war on 安息帝国 (or Partia Empire) , but the Senate refused to approve this absurd request without exception. It’s just that the Senate was in vain at this time. Submitting the bill was just a step away from formalism. The real power Kelasu ignored the decision of the Senate and finally led seven legions in early 54 BC (a total of about 40,000). People) marching towards Syria with great strength.

Speaking of the understanding of the Parthian Empire, In the minds of the Romans at that time, there was actually not much meaning, because the Romans believed that people outside the Mediterranean civilization circle can be called Barbarian (barbarian), these people living primitive lives are not worthy of the ancient Greek and ancient Roman civilization On par. However, this narrow worldview is undoubtedly full of excessive historical idealism in today's view. Although at that time, ancient Greek and Roman civilizations were indeed advanced to the surrounding nations, this does not mean that theirOther people must be worse than them. As the ancient Greek historian 希罗多德 said at the beginning of his book 《History》:“To keep the praiseworthy achievements of the Greeks and barbarians from losing their glory” (in order to make Greece The commendable achievements of the people and the barbarians will not lose their brilliance) , this historian objectively pointed out that the barbarians also have something to be respected, and the Parthian Empire is like this. There may be many readers who do not understand the Parthian Empire and think that they are the continuation of the ancient Persian Empire. In Chengzhi's view, this statement cannot be said to be completely wrong, because as early as the heyday of the ancient Persian Empire, the Parthians, as vassals of the Persian royal court, had always provided the Persian army with the best archers. During the Eastern Expedition of Alexander the Great in the Kingdom of Macedonia, the ancient Persian Empire was destroyed and a power vacuum appeared in the Pamirs. The Parthians took advantage of this excellent opportunity to actively expand. By 68 BC, the territory of the Parthian Empire was already " It borders the Euphrates River in the west, the Holmz Strait in the south, the Caspian Sea in the north, and the Amu Darya River and the Hindu Kush Mountains "" in the east, covering almost 75% of the territory of the ancient Persian Empire. But it is worth noting that the Parthians and Persians who created the empire are completely two concepts. The Parthians were originally nomads who lived on the east coast of the Caspian Sea and belonged to the Indo-European Persian language family, while the Persians were descendants of the ancient Aryans and lived on the southeast coast of Lake Ermia. Therefore, from this point of analysis, there are differences between the Parthian Empire and the Ancient Persian Empire. Of course, this historical knowledge is undoubtedly rubbish in Krasu’s view, because he believes that with the heavy infantry phalanx and advanced siege equipment of the Roman Legion, the Parthians will flee, and he will definitely be able to gain comparisons. Caesar's more proud glory, Alexander the Great's classic battle to defeat Darius III on the plain of Gaugamela will be repeated again. However, history is destined to give this 60-year-old arrogant old man a good military theory class, so that he knows what is meant by "there are heavens and humans but there are people" and what is "riding and shooting warfare".

The Roman Eastern Expeditions went smoothly, and arrived at the frontline base in Syria in the winter of the same year, preparing to cross the Euphrates River in the spring of the next year and start a decisive battle with the Parthian Empire. After learning that Krasu and others had arrived in the Syrian winter camp, the Armenian king Atabazu II (阿塔巴祖二世) , as an ally of the Republic, went to the Roman military camp in person and suggested that Krasu led the army to take Armenia. Going south, he directly besieged the capital of the Anxi Empire 泰西封, and he led more than 10,000 (10,000) Armenian heavy cavalry as an auxiliary force, but this seemingly reasonable suggestion was rejected by Krasu. In fact, as a native, Atabazu II had a very deep understanding of the army of the Parthian Empire. The reason why he suggested that Kelasu go north is because the marching route along the way is mostly mountainous and not suitable for the Parthian cavalry. Even if you take a step back and say that the Roman legions are defeated by the Parthians, they can return to Tessie to defend or enter Armenia, so that they will not be rubbed on the ground by the Parthians. However, this correct strategic idea was not adopted, and Atabazu II had to return to Armenia to guard against the invasion of the Parthian Empire. In the spring of 53 BC, KrasuCommanded the Roman legions across the Syrian border and aggressively attacked the Parthian Empire. The movement of the Roman Legion was quickly detected by the Emperor Orodes II (奥罗尔德斯二世) of the Parthian Empire, and he hurriedly summoned Surena(苏莱纳), who was the commander of the Empire at the time. The palace discusses strategies. At the age of 30, Sulena was the most outstanding general of the Parthian Empire at the time and had a detailed understanding of the fighting style of the Roman Legion. He suggested to Orodes II that the Romans were good at fighting in large corps. Their heavy infantry was the most threatening force in battle, but the weakness of the Romans was also vividly reflected, that is, poor mobility, in other words Just don't pay attention to the role of cavalry. The emperor himself could lead the main force of the rest of the peace army to attack Armenia, thereby restraining Atabazu II’s rescue of the Romans, and he himself led 20,000 (20,000) rest elite cavalry to lure the enemy deep, with the help of the high mobility of the cavalry. And the hot and arid desert terrain of Central Asia dragged down each other, and finally ate all the Krasu Legion. Ororods II believed that, so after the strategy was set, Sulena gave orders to the frontline troops to pretend to retreat as long as they saw the Roman flag. Don't confront them head-on, but wait for the opportunity to fight the Roman legions. .

Kelasu didn’t know that his opponent was a heavyweight man, nor did he know what the significance of the abnormal behavior of the Parthian army was. On the one hand, he urged the army to chase the peaceful deserter, on the other hand. Then sent scout cavalry around to inquire about the position of the main force of the rest army. Many soldiers of the Roman Legion were extremely exhausted due to the rapid march under the conditions of high temperature and drought for several days. However, Krasu still ordered the army to advance in preparation and cross the Euphrates River in the midsummer of that year and into the endless desert. With the passage of time, the dry food carried by the Roman legionnaires gradually depleted, but the Sabbath army has not been able to find it. Finally, on the seventh day after crossing the river, the frontline scouts brought back the military situation that discovered the Anxi army. Krasu was very excited, and immediately ordered the whole army to go out and face the Anxi army. At this time, Sulena, who was standing in the distance, also noticed the arrival of the fighters, and ordered the large forces to disperse and move around the Roman legion at high speed to test the opponent's strength. Seeing the sabbath cavalry swarming from all directions, Crassou seemed to foresee that he might be trapped in the siege of the sabbaths, but in the end he had the advantage in strength, so he ordered the legion to form a huge square tortoise shell formation and let Rome The soldiers combined their shields into a thick shield wall, ready to meet the charge of the rest cavalry. However, there was a very strange scene on the battlefield at this time. The sabbath cavalry who was supposed to charge towards the square did not do this, but instead replayed the arrows around the Roman legion. The Parthians were originally nomads. They were good at riding and shooting since they were young, and the recurve bows they used in their hands were made of elm, horns, and isinglass. They had a range of up to 300 meters and were extremely powerful. In the high-speed movement back and forth, torrential arrows were poured frantically into the positions of the Roman legions, causing many soldiers to be shot to death on the spot. The soldiers holding the shields were gradually tired from the long defensive posture, and many arrows even shot through the shields. Seeing this situation, Krasu was angry and angry. He had never seen this kind of hooligans play. If he has the ability, he will fight in a straightforward manner! But the rest cavalry just didn't go forward and fight melee. Well, since you can't come, then I will go. Krasu ordered the cavalry and light infantry under his command to rush out of the phalanx, wanting to give the Parths some color. But not long after they got out of the phalanx, they were shot back by the opponent with a burst of fire. They still suffered a great loss. This time Crasu finally learned the power of the Easterners’ powerful riding and shooting warfare. No more!

is now in front of Krasu This is a very serious problem, and now the entire Roman legion is firmly nailed in place by the rest of the army, unable to move. Go out, the rest cavalry won't fight you at all, chasing and can't catch up; don't go out, maybe everyone will be shot here by bow and arrow today. After a fierce ideological struggle, Kelasu decided to take a gamble. He let his son 小克拉苏 lead one thousand (1000 people) Gaolu cavalry and five thousand (5000 people) ) Light infantry rushed out of the phalanx again, disrupting the activities of the sabbath cavalry at all costs, so as to buy time for the retreat of the large troops. Little Klasu led the army out, opening blood-red eyes to kill the rest cavalry. Suddenly, the resting cavalry, who had been shooting wretched arrows, retreated. Little Krasu was encouraged, thinking that Armenian reinforcements had arrived on the battlefield and distracted the Parthians. So he followed the rest cavalry closely. When the small Klasu and others got farther and farther away from the original formation, Sulena sent the most terrifying force in his army-安息铁甲骑兵. These cavalrymen wearing helmets, breastplates and scales made of stainless steel, armed with spears, hammers and long swords, formed an iron wall and rushed over, and the rest cavalry who had been retreating also turned around. Surrounded the small Krasu and others. In this way, under the double slaughter of the light and heavy cavalry, the small Krasu and his troops were completely annihilated, and their destruction also marked the complete failure of Krasu's plan to expedition. When the afterglow of the setting sun shines on the battlefield where the dead corpses are numb, there is no need to say more about this victory or defeat. While the rest of the army retreated to the camp to rest, Krasu was too late to clean up the battlefield, and even ignoring the legion eagle flag that was stolen by the rest, hurriedly withdrew the remnants of the defeated Starry Night back to the city of Kalai. What is even more surprising is that during the retreat, Krasu abandoned more than 5,000 wounded soldiers on the battlefield in order to ensure the speed of the march, completely disregarding the lives and deaths of the soldiers, causing a large number of wounded soldiers to mourn the sky, like hell. In the end, these wounded soldiers were all killed by the rest cavalry who came the next day, which is really sad.

The news of Sulena’s command of the Parthian army defeating the Romans soon spread throughout the empire, but Sulena knew that although the Roman legions were defeated, Crassus was still alive and might make a comeback at any time. He eagerly wanted to know the true whereabouts of Krasu. Soon, news from the front came that Krasu was said to have returned to Syria safely under the escort of pro-army cavalry. The Roman garrison in the city of Calle was just a few defeated generals. Sulena did not believe the news lightly, because just thinking about it, it would take a few months to ride a horse from Kalai back to Syria, and now it’s not long before the battle between the two armies has passed. How could Krasu? Escape back to Syria? Could it be the trick of this bad old man? In order to find out, Sulena sent a special messenger to the city of Calle, threatening that the Parthians had taught the opponent the lesson they should have, and now very much hopes to negotiate with the Romans. Klasu did not know what the plan was, and was very happy to receive the messenger of rest. When the messenger reported back, Sulena immediately led a large number of people to encircle the city of Kalai. When I learned that the rest of the army is coming again, I must have regretted it a long time ago, butAfter being helpless. After being besieged by the Parths for many days, Krasu rushed out of Calle with the surviving Roman soldiers, and was finally caught on the spot by Sulena and executed. Afterwards, the Parths poured hot golden water into the body of Krasu. To humiliate this famous man in ancient Roman history.

It was not until Octavian (Octavian) succeeded the head of the ancient Roman Empire that many people in the Senate again proposed to shame Krasu and declare war on the Parthian Empire again. But Octavian didn't want to do this kind of thing that was not worth the loss, so he used diplomatic means to redeem the Kalai prisoner of war and the lost eagle flag twenty years ago. Krasu, on the other hand, stayed in the land of rest forever, and stayed in Kalai forever.
