The Great Grandson of the Tang Dynasty: The beginning of the slaughter of General Tiance's mans

With the cooperation of the kings of Tubo, Tianzhu, and Persia, Mars successfully concluded an alliance with the three countries on behalf of the Byzantine Empire.

Although he was a little surprised that it would go so smoothly, he never imagined that the three countries would unite to plot against him from the beginning.

So, with the alliance signed by the monarchs of the three major countries, Mars returned to the Byzantine Empire with confidence.

……

Constantinople.

Knowing that Mars and other envoys had returned to the Byzantine Empire, Heraclius prepared a grand banquet to welcome them.

"Mars, how was the result of this trip to the Tang Dynasty?"

After drinking for three rounds, Heraclius asked Mars straight to the point. He was still very concerned about the outcome of this peace negotiation.

Facing the expectant gaze of his emperor, Mars shook his head with a heavy expression, lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry, Your Majesty, the peace negotiation failed."

"Why did the emperor of Tang directly reject the peace negotiation?"

Heraclius' expression changed slightly and he frowned and asked.

When Mars heard this, he immediately thought of what Li Chengdao said in the Tai Chi Hall. A hint of humiliation flashed through his heart, and he endured anger and said: "The Emperor of Tang is really extremely arrogant and arrogant. His condition is to let our empire cede territory." Pay reparations and surrender."

"He said that if we refuse, he will continue to fight until our country is destroyed!"

"Snapped--!"

After Mars finished speaking, Heraclius dropped the exquisite glass cup in his hand to the ground, and the wine spilled all over the floor.

And Heraclius had a look of uncontrollable anger on his face, and said with an angry smile: "Certain territory and pay compensation, surrender and surrender. If you don't agree, you will destroy our Byzantine Empire?! Haha...hehehe..."

Heraclius gritted his teeth. As the supreme emperor of the entire Byzantine Empire, he naturally had the arrogance of an emperor.

Li Chengdao's conditions were a slap in the face!

Feeling Heraclius' anger that seemed to be overflowing, the dancers at the banquet hurriedly knelt on the ground, trembling.

After taking a deep breath, Heraclius temporarily suppressed the anger in his heart and asked Mars with a cold face: "You are going to the Tang Kingdom this time. To what extent is the national power and strength of the Tang Kingdom? Compared with our empire, Which one is stronger?"

Although he was angry, his reason was still there.

Since the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty dared to say such arrogant words, he must have great confidence.

Mars sighed and said in a deep voice: "The Tang Dynasty is the richest country I have ever seen. It is several times richer than our empire, and its geographical conditions are also very superior."

"It has technology and culture that are difficult for us to compare with, and it is a well-deserved powerful country."

"I have not seen a large number of their troops, but judging from the strength of the Tang Expeditionary Army, their strength is not weak."

"Generally speaking, our empire...is not as good as them."

Although I really don’t want to admit it, this is the reality. The Byzantine Empire was far worse than the Tang Dynasty!

Mars also gave Heraclius a detailed explanation of the current political system, national system and policies of the Tang Dynasty.

Everything is more than a little bit more advanced than their Byzantine Empire.

What Heraclius envied the most was that such a powerful country was entirely controlled by that emperor, with only his voice.

It almost made him jealous.

"If there is no Senate, and if I can gain the same power and control as the Tang Emperor, my empire will never be weaker than the Tang State!"

Heraclius thought with great dismay.

He was one of the few emperors of the Byzantine Empire who wanted to reform the national system. He deeply saw the shortcomings of the Byzantine Empire today.

However, the strength of the domestic nobles and the clampdown of the Senate made it impossible for him to use his fists.

That's why he envied Li Chengdao's control over Datang.

That is the real emperor!

"Then what did you do during your time in the Tang Dynasty? Have you collected all the crops and technical information?"

Putting away the complicated emotions in his heart, Heraclius asked again.

Mars shook his head in shame and said: "We had already collected them, but when we were about to set off, the Emperor of Tang sent people to search them all away, and we didn't bring anything back."

"Ugh……"

Heraclius sighed, not very surprised by this result, because if he were the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, he would not let Mars take those things away.

Technology, crop seeds, these are much more precious than any gold and silver jewelry.

"I understand. Anyway, you have figured out the strength of Tang State this time, and you have done a good job."

Heraclius did not criticize Mars too much and comforted him. He understood that Mars had tried his best.

However, Mars cheered up and said, "No, I didn't get nothing this time. I brought back the opportunity to defeat Tang!"

"what?"

Heraclius was startled, wondering if he had heard wrongly, and asked Mars again.

"What did you say?"

"Your Majesty, please see."

Mars said, taking out a world map from his arms, which was exactly what he brought back from the Tang Dynasty. This thing is not uncommon in the Tang Dynasty and can be bought everywhere.

The map clearly shows all the countries in the world, large and small, including the Byzantine Empire.

"The Tang Dynasty was powerful, but there were other powerful countries around it. These countries had no choice but to surrender because they were afraid of the Tang State's military strength."

Mars said, placing his hand on the territory of Tubo, Tianzhu, and Persia.

"Tianzhu, Persia, and Tubo are all powerful countries. Each has an army of more than hundreds of thousands. I went to meet the kings of these three countries and successfully persuaded them to conclude an alliance with the Byzantine Empire. ."

"What covenant?"

Heraclius was confused and asked subconsciously.

Mars took out the book of alliance with the seals of the emperors of the three countries from his arms, shook it, and said word by word: "The alliance of the four countries to unite to conquer the Tang Dynasty!"

"Tianzhu, Persia, and Tubo are all on our way to the Tang Dynasty. As long as we send troops, they will cover us. Then the four countries will join forces to raid the Tang border at the same time, and a million troops will invade the Tang Kingdom!

No matter how powerful the Tang Kingdom is, as long as we capture the royal capital in one fell swoop and capture the Tang Emperor alive, the Tang Kingdom will be under our control! "

Having said this, Mars stood up from his seat and left, put his fist on his chest, kneeled down to Heraclius: "I implore your majesty to form a crusade to expedition to the Tang Dynasty!"

"Once this battle is over, the Tang Dynasty will be destroyed. We who have inherited the wealth of the Tang Dynasty will become the most powerful country in the world!"...
