What was the cost of the Roman legionary attack? Don't take war as a joke, logistics is very important!

Personally, I think that the Roman legion that came from afar to attack without backup is actually a dead end. Li Guangli joined Dawan twice before and after, the first time was that the logistics were not good enough (all the cities he passed were closed without food, and they could not be attacked. The soldiers escaped, and six or seven out of ten died.), the second time the logistics were better. In the third year of the first year, Emperor Wu ordered a re-attack on Dawan, sending 60,000 elite soldiers, 100,000 cattle, 30,000 horses, and more than 10,000 donkeys and camels. To transport food and military resources, and add 180,000 soldiers to the army as backup, we can only attack. Under the condition of the death order issued by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and with the help of the machine crossbow of the Han Dynasty to avoid more direct casualties, Dawan fought for peace.

Now what is the cost of the movie Roman legion daring to go all the way to the Western Regions to attack? logistics? Soldier replenishment?

The distance is far away
. Trajan, the most prosperous period of the Roman Empire, reigned from 98 to 117 AD. Even then, from the easternmost province adjacent to the Persian Gulf to Dawan at that time was comparable to the distance from Chang'an to Dawan. , what's more, the movie is set in the period of Emperor Han Yuan (reigned for 16 years, that is, 49 BC - 33 BC), Rome would be much farther from the easternmost province.

Jurisprudence
is because the inheritance of rights in Rome is not based on blood relations, and only political enemies have always pursued and killed political enemies (Caesar pursued Pompey, Octavian fought Anthony). This time the big prince is chasing the little prince?

I don’t want everyone to be a historian, but if you want to make a good film with this theme, the director and screenwriter still need to do more homework.

    Contrast today's "strong condemnation". I feel that the ancients are really righteous, and when the road sees injustice, he roars. It's an honor to see three handsome guys starring in person today. In fact, when I see Chinese actors and Hollywood stars working together, it's like seeing the Han Dynasty and the Roman Empire meet in the play, and I'm still a little excited. (By the way, I didn't even recognize the chopstick brothers in the movie = =) ★★★

    It is the first film in Chinese film history with the theme of the Han Dynasty and Rome. There was also a game with the same theme ten years ago. The war scene is long enough, the props are very delicate, and the plot is slightly the main theme. The city-building drama was an unexpected surprise, and it was generally better than expected. This movie is really funny. The Silk Road, National Unity, Confucius Institute, Peacekeeping, Chinese Dream, the most popular themes are all taken up, and the filming is very good.
