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

Chapter 21 A new chess game! News from the King of Chu spreads back to Chang'an City!

The two of them sat opposite each other at a huge round table, their eyes, one red and one gold, staring at each other, extremely calm and without any expression.

If you look at the ground beneath their feet, you will find that it is filled with white bones.

The black dragon hovering around the King of Chu brought nightmares to the West for ten years.

Over the past ten years, no less than tens of millions of enemies have died at his hands directly or indirectly.

The name, with just the word "Li" in it, or even the word "Oriental", is enough to keep many timid Westerners awake all night.

Some Western children did not go to sleep at night, and their parents even brought out the name of the King of Chu to scare them, so that they went to sleep obediently.

Whether Western children or adults, they were all afraid that the King of Chu would come to their country and bring endless blood and tears.

He is the real... scourge walking the world of the West. Even Lucifer, the most notorious demon in the past hundred years, is not enough to describe the cruelty and terror of the King of Chu.

The Eastern Devil, Satan himself... He has countless titles, all of which are extremely evil.

now.

There were innumerable bones under his feet, and even the chair supporting him was made of bones. These were the corpses of the former enemies of the King of Chu.

the other side.

The King of Qin has golden eyes and is surrounded by golden phoenixes, but beneath his body there are piles of white bones.

Wang Shichong, Dou Jiande, Turks, Xuanwu Gate, Tubo…
He had experienced too many wars, and even though he had killed fewer enemies than the King of Chu, his reputation in the East was no less than that of the King of Chu in the West.

What's more, the reputation of the King of Qin is even greater than that of the King of Chu.

Because wherever he went, he was victorious.

Boom!

At this time, thunder sounded in the sky again.

At this moment, the bright stars in the sky seemed to be guided by seven stars, falling from the sky at a high speed and landing in the open space behind the King of Chu.

The seven stars were scattered neatly behind the King of Chu, and turned into shapes like the Terracotta Warriors of the Qin Dynasty, ten meters high, standing behind the King of Chu.

Looking at the faces of the seven terracotta warriors, you will find that they are exactly the seven star generals under the command of the King of Chu.

There was General Kaiyang who buried and killed 100,000 Persian soldiers, General Yaoguang who captured the Roman commander in a surprise attack over a thousand miles away, and General Tianji who burned down the world and killed 50,000 Roman soldiers in one battle...
The seven generals all had made great military achievements, and beneath their feet were piles of white bones. They all stood behind the King of Chu, guarding him and fighting for him on the battlefield.

the other side.

Behind the King of Qin with golden eyes, seven stars fell from the sky full of stars and turned into ten-meter-high terracotta warriors, standing behind him.

Looking at the faces of the seven,
There are two generals, Yuchi Jingde and Qin Qiong, who are said to have been famous for thousands of years and were later known as door gods; there is Li Jing, the eternal military god; there is Li Xiaogong, who stayed in Youzhou for ten years and frightened the Turks for many years with his weak army...
The seven generals also had great military achievements, but under their feet were piles of white bones, the corpses of their enemies.

When the seven generals all materialized, the original barrier on the huge round table was instantly shattered.

That is the ocean that separates the West and the East, forming a barrier.

Now, with the King of Chu leading a million-strong army to conquer, the lord of the West who has dominated the West for ten years and the King of Qin who has been entrenched in the East and dominated the East will finally meet and fight.

A huge map appeared before his eyes, showing the complete territory of the Tang Dynasty.

Once upon a time, on this stone table, the enemies of the King of Chu were called Rome and Persia...
He faced too many enemies, and they all failed. He won, so they became bones.

The King of Chu sat on this new war as a victor.

The same is true of the King of Qin.

"boom!"

At this time, the King of Chu swung his right hand.

Great changes occurred in the world.

The second terracotta warrior on the right behind him, the one with the word "Yaoguang" written on his huge cape, suddenly had a little white light in his muddy eyes. The light in his eyes became brighter and brighter.

Finally, the entire Terracotta Army turned into stars again and flew at a high speed, but this time it did not fly into the sky, but fell onto the map on the stone table.

In the coastal area of ​​Jiangdong, which was part of the complete territory of the Tang Dynasty, a black chess piece appeared.

The King of Chu has joined the game!
He started the war.

The King of Qin has not responded yet.

Even the common people of the Tang Dynasty did not react.

War is always like this.

It came unexpectedly and was beyond expectations.

At first no one cared, then a whole place was lost, some parents’ children did not return, and finally a whole city was lost.

Not until it concerns everyone will people realize that the war has come to an end, and it is time to fight to the death rather than live in disgrace, or even to destroy the country.

There is no denying it.

This war has begun! .
….…….….….….
a few days later.

The capital of the Tang Dynasty, Chang'an City.

"I wish to be honored by His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty with the title of Heavenly Khan~"

In an inn, a storyteller held a feather fan, his eyes full of pride.

His audience included many ordinary people and Tang soldiers who came to rest and eat at noon.

"This is a unique emperor. During his turbulent years, he fought on the battlefield, led the troops and protected the people in his territory. When the four seas came to him, he promoted the kingly way, accepted advice with an open mind, and put down his arms and cultivated culture."

"As an entrepreneurial king who once used swords to defeat many heroes, he spent his life to conquer the Central Plains, expand the borders, make the world famous, and conquer all nations."

"Under his rule, people did not pick up lost items on the road, and doors were not locked at night. The Chinese and the barbarians were one family, and the Silk Road led to the Song Dynasty. In the yellowed history books, your majesty is an absolutely glorious and wise image."

"The historical achievements of the Zhenguan Reign are like a shining star. It is... a prosperous era unprecedented in history! Even in later generations, it will definitely be ranked among the best!"

"We live in an extremely perfect era. These are bestowed by His Majesty!"

The storyteller spoke the last sentence with passionate emotion.

The audience were filled with emotion as they listened to it.

No civilians or soldiers refuted the storyteller because it was all true.

But did they know,
How many corpses are buried under this so-called prosperous Zhenguan era?

At Xuanwu Gate that day, Li Chengdao's family was massacred.

That should have been the Tang Dynasty that belonged to the Eastern Palace. The Sui Dynasty had already laid a solid foundation, and the Tang Dynasty had the foundation for prosperity.

Li Shimin made great contributions to the entire Tang Dynasty, but Li Yuan did not treat him unfairly. He gave him the title of General Tiance and also allowed Li Shimin the right to mint his own coins.

But he was not satisfied with all this, he launched the terrifying Xuanwu Gate!
It was he who took away the fruit of the entire Li family's credit!

During the Xuanwu Gate Incident, many people also thought that Li Shimin had gone too far. The Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace was his own brother, yet he actually killed him.

It would have been bad enough if they had killed their own family members, but they also killed the entire prince's family. How bloody and brutal.

Moreover, the impact of the Xuanwu Gate Incident was not limited to this. It not only affected the Li family. After that, hundreds of thousands of Turkic troops went out to trample on Youzhou during the Xuanwu Gate Incident, bringing endless blood and tears to the people and soldiers of Youzhou, and finally arrived at the banks of the Wei River in front of the city of Chang'an.

Li Shimin's coup was successful, but did anyone know about the suffering of tens of millions of people in Youzhou?
