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

Heraclius looked at the book of covenant with the seal of the three emperors that Mars took out, and then looked at the map.

Where his eyes were directed was the territory of the Tang Dynasty.

Looking at the Tang Dynasty on the map, Heraclius seemed to see the prosperous Tang Dynasty and the prosperous land.

"How sure are you?"

Heraclius looked at Mars and asked calmly.

"With the help of the three major countries, our imperial army can quietly pass through Persia and enter the territory of Tubo. It will definitely be able to break through the capital of the Tang Dynasty in a short time!"

Mars said firmly.

During his time in the Tang Dynasty, he had done a lot of homework, and the countries surrounding the Tang State had surrendered. Therefore, the Tang State must not have many troops on the border, and the main forces must have been used for expeditions.

At this time, millions of troops suddenly appeared at the border of Datang. Who could have expected it?

Defeat the enemy in one battle!

"it is good!"

Heraclius stood up abruptly, his eyes sharp, "I'm going to convince the Senate to set up a crusade to expedition to the Tang Dynasty!"

"This battle will be the beginning of the prosperity of our Byzantine Empire!"

As an emperor, Chirac has enough courage. He is eager to change the status quo of the empire through an unparalleled victory, completely take power in his hands, and become a true emperor!

……

After making up his mind, Heraclius immediately set out to persuade the Senate to let the domestic aristocratic forces contribute to the establishment of the Crusade.

Relying on his excellent eloquence and taking advantage of the nobles' coveting of the Tang Dynasty's wealth, Heraclius successfully persuaded most of the aristocratic senators in the Senate to agree to organize an army to attack the Tang Dynasty.

Most of the wealth and elite army of the Byzantine Empire were in the hands of the nobles. Once the noble class exerted its strength, it could exert great power.

The most important thing is that the Byzantine Empire has a very large population, especially slaves, who seem to need no money.

Therefore, an army of millions of people was quickly formed in just two months, and then headed east.

Among them, 500,000 elite private soldiers of the nobles served as the main force, and 800,000 slaves were used as cannon fodder.

In addition to these, there are countless slaves used to transport food and ensure logistics.

This vast expedition that mobilized the entire Byzantine Empire began.

……

The Byzantine Empire's march route this time was to pass through Tianzhu and Persia, and then pass through Tubo to make a surprise attack on the border of Datang!

As long as the border city is broken from Shanzhou, Chang'an City can be taken directly!

After the Byzantine Empire began to take action, Persia and Tianzhu cooperated very well and sent their own armies to follow.

This is the content of the covenant. In this expedition to the Tang Dynasty, Persia, Tianzhu, and Tubo must all contribute, and they can participate in carving up the benefits afterwards.

The actions of the Byzantine Empire soon reached Chang'an.

……

Chang'an City, the Imperial Palace.

"Your Majesty, the Byzantine Empire's army has taken action. This time they have sent a total of 1.3 million troops, including about 500,000 elites and 800,000 slaves. The number of logistics personnel is not yet clear."

"According to news from Persia, the Byzantine Empire's army has entered Persia and is expected to arrive in Tubo in five months."

Yue Fei reported to Li Chengdao.

As the war was about to begin, Yue Fei did not leave Chang'an. Not only that, Li Jing, who was in charge of Jiangnan Road, was also transferred back to Chang'an.

"An army of 1.3 million? This Byzantine emperor is really very resourceful. It seems that he has conquered the Tang Dynasty."

Li Chengdao sneered, but looked at the map.

Li Jing took a step forward and said: "Your Majesty, the domestic armies have also been assembled. Now the Yizhou Army, the Northwest Iron Cavalry, and the Weizhou Army, a total of 600,000 troops, are on the border. The supply line has also been established, and they can send troops to fight against the enemy at any time!"

In these years, the establishment of all major armies in the country has expanded by about half. The original expansion was unnecessary and unaffordable.

But now that the Tang Dynasty was powerful, it was easy to raise an army of millions.

However, facing the invading 1.3 million Byzantine Empire army this time, the Tang Dynasty only mobilized 600,000 troops.

"Don't worry, the urn has been set up now, please enter the urn."

"When they cross the Tibetan border, we will give them a head-on attack. We must resolve the war within Tubo territory!"

Li Chengdao stretched out his slender white fingers and pointed at a place where Tubo passed through the territory, and said calmly.

"promise!"

Yue Fei and Li Jing both responded respectfully, feeling very excited in their hearts.

A huge war involving millions of people, a confrontation between the two great powers of the East and the West! As a soldier, being able to personally participate in and command such a war made them feel excited!

"Your Majesty, please allow me to be the vanguard!"

At this time, Li Lizhi, who had been listening to the conversation between the monarch and his ministers, suddenly spoke, with a pair of beautiful eyes full of fighting spirit.

She also came to the palace today to learn from Li Chengdao. It happened that Li Chengdao was discussing military affairs with Yue Fei and others, so she followed and listened.

After hearing Li Lizhi's words, everyone immediately turned their attention to her.

Yue Fei frowned and said: "This war is no small matter, how can it be child's play? Although you have experience in fighting on the front line, in this kind of war involving millions of people, you can just watch and learn, what nonsense are you talking about!"

Yue Fei accepted Li Lizhi as his disciple because he regarded her as half a daughter, so he scolded her like this.

"If I don't go through the baptism of a real war, then all the fighting I have learned is just talk on paper. How can I talk about becoming the second Princess Pingyang Zhao of the Tang Dynasty!"

"If I die on the battlefield, it means that I am incompetent and have no one to blame!"

Li Lizhi's gaze was extremely firm, with no intention of backing down.

Li Chengdao glanced at her, nodded and said: "In that case, then you should be the vanguard, but you must obey the command and do not act without authorization."

"His Majesty!"

Yue Fei couldn't help but speak.

Li Chengdao raised his hand to indicate that he didn't need to persuade him, and then said: "Chang Le is right. Real soldiers are tempered on the battlefield. How can there be any reason to talk empty talk all day long?"

"My killing skills are not just for practice!"

Having said this, Li Chengdao paused, took a deep look at Li Lizhi, and said, "Don't let me down, and don't let your mother and concubine down."

The former's disappointment refers to his expectations; the latter's disappointment refers to her not dying on the battlefield.

Li Lizhi's heart moved slightly, she knelt down on one knee and said in a sweet but sonorous voice: "I will definitely live up to my destiny!"...
