Tang Dynasty: After dominating Rome, I counterattacked Chang'an

Chapter 1: Ten Years of Fear in the West!
Park 636.

Constantinople, the capital of the Eastern Roman Empire.

This city with a long history is the capital of the Byzantine Empire, known as the "Second Rome", and is the birthplace of many myths.

There are many fascinating myths and legends in this ancient city, the most amazing of which is the legend that it has never fallen.

And today, it faces its greatest challenge ever.

Outside the city, there are enemy troops everywhere.

Inside the city, there were terrified and numb Roman soldiers.

In the imperial city.

The Roman emperor looked pale: "Has that... that evil star from the ancient East already breached the city?"

While talking,
In his frightened eyes, the scene of the first time he saw the disaster star ten years ago emerged.

"Oh? You are from the East? The ancient East. You are just a child. Why do these soldiers obey you so much?"

The child did not answer. His determined and burning eyes were looking only towards the distant East.

"Roman Emperor, help me and my people. One day when I return to the Tang Dynasty, I will make you the Lord of the West."

"Hmm? Pfft....Hahahaha! Lord of the West? Just you little brat, get out! Get away from the walls of Constantinople right now, or my Vatican Crusaders will kill you all!"

The child still did not answer, nor did he show any fear. He was just calm, as if his whole body was calm.

This time, the child did not look to the east.

Instead, he looked at him calmly, his resolute and bloody face staring calmly. With just those few glances, the Roman emperor felt that the child was definitely not an ordinary person, but... he thought it was his own illusion, he was just a child.

Even if they come from the ancient East, children are of little use.

A thousand Vatican crusaders would be enough to annihilate the child and his remaining troops.

But he didn't, because it was just a kid.

But he served the Lord, and the Lord did not allow such killing.

"Roman Emperor, you will regret this."

"One day, I will overthrow your Constantinople."

After saying that, the child led his remaining troops and left.

But before he walked away completely, he turned back and looked at her again.

This time, the Roman emperor actually sensed a hint of murderous intent in the gaze, which made him panic.

But he quickly shook his head, saying it was just a child.

"Remember, my name is Li Chengdao."

"I was defeated in the East, but that doesn't mean I will lose to the West."

The child left this sentence and left forever.

It was a brief contact, but it made the Roman emperor remember it for a long time.

After this,

He specially sent the Vatican Crusaders to find out the whereabouts of the child.

It would have been fine if he hadn't asked, but when he did he got a fright.

Only half a year after the child left, he destroyed the small country next to the Roman Empire and had his own territory.

Then, the next year, a medium-sized country was destroyed.

In the third year, two medium-sized countries were destroyed.

Could it be that the person from the far east, even a child, was so terrifying?
This made the Roman emperor feel fear. Perhaps...what the child said back then were not harsh words, but goals!

He began to look for messengers to contact Li Chengdao, but Li Chengdao refused directly without any hesitation.

Even facing the absolute overlord, the Roman Empire.

That kid... Li Chengdao didn't even give him any face!

When the news reached the Roman Empire, the nobles were outraged and asked to see him, asking him to lead the imperial army to crush Li Chengdao's Great Yan Empire.

Let that arrogant guy know that this is not the East, but the West!!!

The West ruled by their Roman Empire!!
The Roman emperor was afraid of the child, but as an emperor, he had the pride of a king.

After being rejected, he also felt angry.

yes~

Yes!

yes!!!!
This is not the East. I have given that kid face many times but he still refuses to accept it. So I'll beat him!

Let that child know who is the overlord of this land!

They sent out troops.

The Archbishop led 30,000 Vatican Crusaders to march to Dayan.

can bear fruit,
But it was a miserable defeat.

Da Yan’s military strength is inferior to theirs, and their equipment and elite troops are also inferior.

But when fighting, they always avoided a head-on confrontation, but went around in circles and defeated them one by one.

The Holy See Crusaders had never encountered such a tactic. According to the generals of Dayan, this was called guerrilla warfare, which came from "The Art of War".

The Art of War?

This is the first time I heard about it.

Western wars have always been head-on battles, and whoever has stronger troops and equipment will be stronger.

But Dayan defeated the strong with his weak strength.

And with a casualty ratio of one to ten, we won a great victory.

So far!

In the Roman Empire, no one dared to look down on the Great Yan Empire anymore.

They come from the East, the mysterious East.

And they came with powerful tactics from the East, they... they came to conquer the West!
At that time, everyone in the empire was in panic.

Even though the overall national strength of Dayan at that time was not even one-tenth of the Roman Empire, they were still afraid.

later.

The Roman Empire organized several wars against the Yan Empire, but all of them failed without exception.

Da Yan’s military strength was always weaker than theirs, but they were always able to defeat them with strange tactics.

Da Yan continued to destroy countries, including the empires surrounding Rome.

The Roman Empire did not sit idly by, but continued to unite with surrounding countries to conquer the Yan Dynasty.

It’s ridiculous, the Roman Empire, they are the Roman Empire!
Over the past few hundred years in the West,
The most recognized overlord by all people and all countries!
They have always been the only ones involved, and there is no precedent of uniting with other countries.

There is no other reason.

Because they are too strong!
So powerful that it can ignore the alliance of any country.

Can….
Facing Li Chengdao who came from the ancient East, they were defeated miserably. Even if they joined forces with other countries, they were still defeated miserably.

In the fifth year, the Great Yan Empire completed the destruction of half of the countries surrounding the Roman Empire.

In the sixth and seventh years, the Great Yan Empire rested and recuperated, focusing on people's livelihood and economy.

In the eighth year, the army of the Great Yan Empire increased dramatically, and it sent troops to other countries, destroying three-quarters of the countries around the Roman Empire.

In the ninth year, the Great Yan Empire continued its conquest and destroyed all the countries around the Roman Empire.

In the tenth year, the Great Yan Empire sent troops to the Roman Empire!

The two empires officially went to war this year. Their national strength was equal, but the Roman Empire was always defeated.

And now.

Roman Empire….
The Roman emperor thought of this and smiled helplessly at himself.

Where is the Roman Empire today?
All the surrounding areas were annexed by the Great Yan Empire. The Roman Empire, once the mighty overlord of the West, only had Constantinople left and was in danger.

Constantinople held out for two full months, but today, the city is finally about to be breached.

The Roman emperor had never expected that the savings of dozens of generations of the empire could not defeat an Oriental child who had only been here for about ten years.

And the Roman Empire seemed to be...about to perish in his hands.
