Chapter 867: Byzantium
"Something seems wrong, why did they suddenly rush in the direction of our city?"
After a cup of tea, Zhao Gang suddenly realized that something was wrong, because the Great Food Army, which numbered about thousands of people, did not go anywhere else, but rushed straight towards the ancient city of Augustus.
"General, what should we do now, should we attack them on the walls?" The hundred cavalry commander asked Zhao Gang with a sad look on his face.
Zhao Gang shook his head and said, "Let's see what they want to do first!" ”
In this way, Zhao Gang watched as the enemy's Great Eater Thousand Lives soldiers came to the outside of the ancient city of Augustus.
"You're all gathered together and follow us!"
"Damn, you pigs of the Western Tianzhu Kingdom, Lao Tzu actually risked his life to go out of the military camp for you, and if you are disobedient, Lao Tzu will kill you!"
The soldiers of the Great Food Army, like the animal trainers of the circus in Li Yuanba's previous life, treated the people of the Western Tianzhu Kingdom as animals, as poor livestock, who could be abused at will, and they had to do whatever they wanted.
What about these unlucky people of the Western Tianzhu Kingdom?
One by one, they are honestly like sheep, and they don't even have the heart to resist a little, no wonder according to Li Su's interest, he wants to kill all the people of these Western Tianzhu Kingdom.
This is also a perfect interpretation of what it means to "have a hateful place for poor people"!
"**** mother, I know what they're going to do!" Zhao Gang finally figured out what these guys were going to do at this time, "Quick, go and inform the general, these guys are going to drive all the people of the Western Tianzhu Kingdom to their camp, the purpose of which is to protect their camp......"
"You don't need to tell me, I'm here!" Zhao Gang's words were not finished. Li Jing's voice rang out.
Zhao Gang turned his head to look and found that Li Jing walked up to the city with brisk steps, and said, "Don't worry about them, I believe that the other Tianzhu Kingdoms will soon make moves!" ”
"Did the Divine Guard send the news?" Zhao Gang asked with some curiosity.
"You kid, you really want to get involved in everything! Alright, don't ask what you shouldn't know. Do your own thing! Li Jing glared at Zhao Gang angrily and said.
……
originally thought that this war would escalate because of this, but what everyone didn't expect was that Datang, who had the advantage, did not continue to attack Da Shi.
However, Da Shi, who had the soldiers of the Western Tianzhu Kingdom as a meat shield, chose to take the initiative to retreat at this time, and two days later, he put forward a request for peace talks to the Tang side of the ancient city of Augustus.
It turned out that after losing all the catapults, most of the close-range firearms purchased from the Tang Dynasty in the Great Food Army. Problems have also arisen one after another.
Harifa reported the situation to the Sith and several princes in the country, and after discussions with the think tank, the princes knew that it would be difficult to win the war!
Taking a step back, even if they can win this war, it will probably be a tragic victory, so in the end, they chose to send an envoy to negotiate peace with Datang.
There were a few other reasons why the Sith had to make this choice.
Li Jing's army in the ancient city of Augustus was also surprised when he received the request for peace talks. I don't know what the hell is going on, and the big food that behaved so tough at the beginning. How is it possible to choose peace talks?
Li Jing even thought for a while that this was another conspiracy of Da Shi!
Just when Li Jing was about to agree first and explore the style of eating, Li Jing saw a person in the ancient city of Augustus, and it was the existence of this person that finally solved Li Jing's doubts.
"Honorable Dingtian Dao General Li. On behalf of the great Eastern Roman Emperor, General Shenwuwei Li and the envoy Mosina express their most sincere respect to the two of them! ”
A big cannibal with long brown and yellow hair, a high nose and deep eyes walked into the Augustus City Lord's Mansion, this guy spoke fluent Chinese. If it weren't for the obvious alien characteristics of this guy, just listening to the voice, I am afraid that he would think that he was from the Tang Dynasty.
And Li Jing and Li Sanduo in the city lord's mansion looked up and down at the envoy in front of him who claimed to be the Eastern Roman Empire.
In fact, in the early morning, a team claiming to be envoys of the Eastern Roman Empire came outside the ancient city of Augustus, with rich gifts and a letter from their Eastern Roman Emperor, asking to see the two principals of the Tang Dynasty in the ancient city of Augustus.
For the identity of this group of people, it is very simple to confirm, after all, the Eastern Roman Empire also has a long history, and it is quite easy to find a few people to confirm.
As for the Eastern Roman Empire, it is actually the Byzantine Empire, an Orthodox imperial state with its core located on the Balkan Peninsula in southeastern Europe.
According to Li Yuanba's exploration of all aspects of the Eastern Roman Empire, as well as the news from the Heavenly Guards and Shadow Guards, the current territory of the Eastern Roman Empire is outside its core area, but only occupies the northern part of Africa, which is why Li Yuanba didn't take them seriously before.
After all, the territory of the Eastern Roman Empire is only so little, and there is no comparison with the Western Roman Empire, which was split, so Li Yuanba didn't care.
Who knows, they have developed rapidly in the past year, and they have secretly occupied the western part of Asia and part of the Mediterranean coast, and when Li Yuanba noticed them, they took the initiative to send them to the door.
Therefore, after confirming the identity of the other party, Li Jing, who had just learned about the situation in West Asia and Southern Europe from Li Yuanba, had already understood why the Eastern Romans were coming, and why those arrogant cannibals were so anxious to want to negotiate peace with them.
In fact, this matter is also very simple, it is nothing more than that when the Great Food was actively developing towards the surrounding area, it finally had a war intersection with the Eastern Roman Empire.
If they are not careful, they even let the Great Food occupy their eastern area.
Can the Roman Emperor of the Eastern Roman Empire endure this little temper?
Of course not, because the Eastern Roman Empire has developed secretly in the past year, the military power is already quite strong, and in the Mediterranean, there is also a fairly advanced navy.
Therefore, the Eastern Roman Empire began a crazy revenge on the Great Eclipse, and was about to recapture its eastern region, when it suddenly got a secret spy report, and the Great Eclipse actually sent 100,000 troops to the territory of the Western Tianzhu Kingdom, and it was also against the Tang Dynasty.
The emperor of the Eastern Roman Empire, after learning the news, was so excited that he couldn't find the north, and immediately sent three teams of envoys:
Two of the teams were sent to the Western Tianzhu Kingdom to contact Li Yuanba and Li Jing, and the third team was sent to Datang to contact Li Shimin and other high-level officials of the Tang Dynasty.
The purpose is, of course, to form an alliance, and then the two sides will work together to deal with the Great Eclipse! (To be continued.) )
