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

Chapter 36 Two-sided attack, General Tianquan’s judgment!

"General, we're here."

"Not far away is the border of the Tang Dynasty."

The commander of the Tianquan Camp, who was in charge of gathering intelligence, returned and reported to General Tianquan.

Upon hearing this, General Tianquan responded indifferently.

He is more than anyone else.
They all knew clearly that they had arrived in the Tang Dynasty.

Mainly because this place is my hometown!
Even though ten years have passed, even though his hometown has been burned to ashes by the war, he can still remember that the land under his feet is the soil of his hometown.

"Tang Dynasty... I came back in this identity."

General Tianquan looked at Liangzhou City not far away and felt very emotional.

That is the natural barrier of Liangzhou.

As long as they capture it, they will be able to move freely within Liangzhou.

He understands Liangzhou better than anyone else.

It is said that why Li Chengdao led a million troops by sea, while he arrived by land and arrived faster than Li Chengdao.

This is for a reason.

He and his 3,000-man Tianquan Battalion received an order from Li Chengdao half a year ago to hunt down a fully-strength Roman Vatican Crusader army.

That full army,
He broke through the blockade of Rome by the Dayan army and escaped.

But the direction of escape was not to the west, but to the east.

Since there were many small countries to the west of Rome, in order to avoid Rome sending reinforcements, the Great Yan army was deployed there.

As for the East...
There's a boundless expanse over there. There's no one to be seen for a thousand miles, and there's not a single blade of grass growing. What's the point of going there?

So there are no troops deployed there.

The full-strength Roman Catholic Crusaders escaped and headed east.

There were no Dayan troops over there, so for the sake of safety, Li Chengdao sent General Tianquan and his Tianquan Camp to hunt them down.

In the beginning,
General Tianquan thought that this mission was just a minor incident, but as he pursued them he realized that the escaped Vatican Crusaders were all top-notch, both Roman soldiers and horses.

Even he and his Tianquan Camp cavalry could not catch up with the Vatican Crusaders.

In previous wars against Rome,
Roman armies like this were all led into battle by General Tianshu, who was known as the "Archer", and his Tianshu Battalion.

General Tianshu and his soldiers had the fastest horses in the entire Great Yan, and their camp-building philosophy was also formed because of the desire to annihilate the elite Roman cavalry.

But this is not the case with him and his Tianquan Camp philosophy.

Therefore, it was extremely difficult to chase after the Vatican Crusaders.

now….
Half a year has passed since the King of Chu issued the order to hunt him down.

General Tianquan has been leading his troops in pursuit for half a year. From the captured Vatican Crusaders, he has completely understood their purpose, which is to go east to seek reinforcements.

After half a year of pursuit, almost all the Vatican Crusaders were killed by them, and only one Roman soldier entered the Tang Dynasty.

"General, what shall we do next?"

"The Tang Dynasty is in the distance. Should we stop and report to His Highness to wait for the next order?"

The commander of Tianquan Camp asked.

General Tianquan shook his head: "Although my Great Yan pigeons are the most powerful and fastest after special training, it will still take at least half a month to go back and forth."

"Half a month... is enough time for many things to happen."

"What's more, I received a letter from His Highness last time. According to the content of the letter, Yaoguang has recently arrived in the territory of the Tang Dynasty."

"If a Roman soldier tipped off the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty might believe it, or it might not."

"But... our army cannot take any chances." "We can only assume that the Tang Dynasty believes it. With the Roman soldiers' tip-off, they will know everything about our Great Yan army! And Yaoguang does not know about this."

"In terms of intelligence, Yaoguang is at a disadvantage and may be in great danger."

Upon hearing this, the commander of the Tianquan Camp frowned slightly and said, "Then... General, what should our army do?"

General Tianquan thought for a moment and said, "Send two letters immediately. Send one to Yaoguang to inform him that he may be exposed. Ask him to control his arrogant temper and gather information about Jiangdong in a safe manner until your highness's army arrives."

"Another letter is sent to His Highness, informing His Highness that... our army is attacking the city!"

The commander of the Tianquan Camp was stunned: "Attack the city? Attack where? It can't be the Tang Dynasty, right?"

General Tianquan looked at him seriously: "Yes, it is the Tang Dynasty."

Upon hearing this, the commander of Tianquan Camp's eyes widened instantly.

Without waiting for him to speak, General Tianquan said slowly: "A general is not subject to military orders when he is away from home."

"Letting a Roman soldier escape is a dereliction of duty for me. If he brings the information to the Tang Dynasty, when the Tang Dynasty learns that the invasion of Jiangdong was led by your Highness, the King of Qin..."

Saying,

The invincible figure of the past appeared in General Tianquan's eyes, and his pupils were slightly filled with awe.

"He will attack Jiangdong, and will definitely attack Jiangdong Yaoguang Camp madly!"

"The King of Qin is unrivalled in his ability to lead an army. Whenever he attacks any army with his full attitude, that army will undoubtedly be defeated. The same is true for Yaoguang! She might even die at the hands of the King of Qin!"

"This is the trouble caused by my Tianquan. Even if I cannot kill the Roman soldier, I must make amends."

"When attacking the Tang Dynasty, our army will mainly harass the enemy and secondarily attack the city. This will mainly attract the attention of the generals of the Tang Dynasty and even the King of Qin, so that they don't focus all their attention on Jiangdong."

Upon hearing this, the commander of the Tianquan Camp exhaled, "General, I understand."

General Tianquan nodded: "After sending the letter, prepare to attack the city, attack the Liangzhou City in front of us!"

"I heard from some Western merchants on the way that the Tang Dynasty is at peace and all nations are paying tribute. I'm afraid the current Tang Dynasty... wouldn't think that any country would dare to attack them."

"So this Liangzhou City only looks strong, but in fact... the defenders are paralyzed by the long-term peace. This place will be easier to break than any other city in the Tang Dynasty during wartime."

"Pass on my order. In three hours, prepare to take Liangzhou City with a clever strategy! Then use Liangzhou City as a springboard to invade the Tang Dynasty!"

General Tianquan gave the order quickly.

in a sense,

He began to protect General Yaoguang Pei Xingjian.

Self-perceived cover.

This does not require instructions from the headquarters, and the command of Dayan will not blame anyone when they find out.

Because of Li Chengdao, the Seven Generals of Stars were given unlimited power.

Seven Star Generals,

In times of war, they can give commands on their own without reporting to the relevant authorities.

at the same time.

Datang.

The soldier from Rome finally met the guards of the imperial city.

"Quick... take me to see your Great Tang Emperor. I have important military information to report!"

The Roman soldiers looked anxious.

"What's the matter? You must tell us first." The imperial city guard asked seriously.

The Roman soldier hurriedly said, "It's Da Yan, that Li Chengdao and his seven disasters are coming with their army!"
