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

Chapter 40: The government and the public were shocked by the mysterious West...Roman past!
When everyone heard this, they all understood.

The current Tang Dynasty is not just a country, but also a symbol of honor and the master of all small countries!

If rebellion comes,
If they cannot calm down in time, what will the small countries think of this? And what will the people think of this?
So this matter must be resolved as soon as possible!

otherwise,

The reputation of the Tang Dynasty will be damaged!

Some countries even do not recognize the Tang Dynasty as their master!
Most people seek to curry favor with the powerful, and the weak recognize the strong as their master. This is also true at the national level.

Like the countries of later times,
Among the Wuchang, which one of them didn’t come in based on his strength?

As China has become increasingly powerful over the years, everyone can clearly notice that there are more and more people praising China in public opinion.

There is only one simple and cruel reason for all this: China is too strong!
"But now, we know nothing about them."

Cheng Yaojin frowned slightly: "They can disguise themselves as civilians to enter Liangzhou City, or they can disguise themselves as civilians and enter any place in Liangzhou City."

"How to put down the rebellion?"

After the words were spoken, everyone fell silent.

yes~

Yes!

How can this rebellion be quelled?

This is a dead end, I don’t know how to solve it!

"No matter what, send troops to Liangzhou City first and keep them on standby."

"When that mysterious enemy army attacks Liangzhou City next time, this standby army will rush to quell the rebellion!"

"Before that, we must do everything in our power to conceal the news!"

Li Jing gave his reply.

Concealing the news when something big happens is also a common practice in the Tang Dynasty.

Whether it is the Tang Dynasty,
In previous dynasties.

The Qin Dynasty, the Han Dynasty, the Three Kingdoms…
Everyone will do that.

Just because this news spreads, it will make people panic.

So usually the people are the last to know such news.

[When you see cockroaches in the sun, it means that there are so many cockroaches in the dark that they can no longer hide.]

The same is true for the news of the city’s capture.

They will only make it public when there is really no way to hide it anymore.

"Which army should be sent there as quickly as possible?"

Cheng Yaojin asked.

Li Jing thought for a moment and replied, "I'll go. This incident is of great importance and must be redressed as soon as possible!"

"Otherwise, when Your Majesty returns and sees that the Tang Dynasty has run into problems and has not yet resolved them, it will be my dereliction of duty."

As the words fell, everyone's expressions changed slightly.

Li Jing is going to the battle.

How long has it been?

How long has it been since the old man Li Jing led his troops into battle?

He seemed to have faded from the generals' vision, but all the generals would never forget that Li Jing was the goal they pursued throughout their lives.

after all,

This is...their Tang Dynasty’s military god!
Wherever he went, he won.

Fighting for a lifetime,
Except for meeting the King of Qin, there was almost no failure!
Although no one knows where the mysterious army comes from or what their purpose is, and everything is unknown, making people panic and scared, as long as Li Jing takes action, they all feel a sense of security.

"Pharmacist, how about...I should go?"

Yuchi Jingde volunteered, thought for a moment, and continued, "There was an incident in Wangshiwan, and then there was Liangzhou City. Bad things happened one after another, and there might be more."

"You have to stay in Chang'an to prepare for the next strange incident." Changsun Wuji nodded: "Yes, I also think this is the best."

Cheng Yaojin echoed: "That's right, pharmacist, leave it to Lao Hei!"

Seeing that everyone was leaning towards Yuchi Jingde, Li Jing exhaled: "That's good."

"Duke E, how about you lead His Majesty's five thousand black-armored cavalry to Xiping and defeat the Liangzhou rebels?"

Five thousand black armored cavalry?
As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions changed slightly.

The Black Armor Cavalry army has a different status in the entire Tang Dynasty, because it is the army commanded by His Majesty himself, and they played an extremely important role ten years ago.

If it weren't for the Black Armored Cavalry, Your Majesty would not have been able to capture the two kings in one battle, nor would he have achieved the victory at Xuanwu Gate.

It can be said,
It is the Black Armor Cavalry army that made Your Majesty successful.

After your majesty became emperor,
He once said that the Black Armor Cavalry should not be deployed unless it is necessary. This is the trump card of the Tang Dynasty and also the trump card in his hand.

As long as there is a black armor rider,
His Majesty always believed that no matter how powerful the Tang Dynasty was, he could take it back from its hands.

Precisely because of the importance of the Black Armor Cavalry, the Black Armor Cavalry has been greatly expanded in recent years, from the original 3000 people to 5000 people.

Although it was only an increase of 2,000 people, with such low productivity in ancient times, the consumption of resources by adding 2,000 elite heavy cavalry was extremely terrifying.

Even the Turkic people, who were at their peak at that time, did not dare to spend resources to maintain 5,000 heavy cavalry.

Do not use the Black Armor Cavalry unless it is necessary...
But everyone knows,

Now is the necessary moment. Especially at this important time when all nations are paying tribute, peace and prosperity is needed throughout the Tang Dynasty!
"Well, with the Black Armor Cavalry here, we can win this battle!"

Yuchi Jingde instantly felt confident.

"In that case, then this matter..."

Li Jing was about to speak to confirm it, but a figure hurriedly walked in from outside the Taiji Palace.

That was Li Junxian, his expression was extremely solemn.

Li Jing instantly looked at Li Junxian and frowned slightly: "What happened?"

The person he least wanted to see now was Li Junxian, because every time Li Junxian came these days, he brought bad news.

"Replying to the general, it is a Roman who came to our Tang Dynasty."

Li Junxian replied.

Romans?
What country is that?
Li Jing and everyone else were all stunned.

Li Junxian explained: "He claimed that he came from the West, which is farther west than the Western Regions!"

"He also asked...whether Liangzhou City had been breached recently!"

Zhang Sun Wuji's eyes widened: "How... did he know this? The news was just reported back this morning. Aren't we the only ones who know about this?"

Li Junxian sighed and said, "Yeah~ How did he know? The imperial guards only learned today that Liangzhou City had been breached, but the Roman said so a few days ago."

"At that time, our imperial city guards did not take his words to heart and drove him out. Now that they learned that Liangzhou City had been breached this morning, they quickly invited him in and brought him to the palace."

"That Roman, he seems to know who is the force that broke into Liangzhou City!"

boom!
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present stood up suddenly.

Even Li Jing, who had been calm all the time, subconsciously narrowed his pupils.

"Quick, Guard Li, please invite him in!"

Changsun Wuji spoke hurriedly, his voice trembling and shaking.

right now,

They really wanted to know who on earth was able to capture Liangzhou City in one day and even dare to declare war on the Tang Dynasty!

Li Junxian hurriedly took the order and retreated, going to invite the Roman soldiers.

When he left,
Everyone couldn't help but talk about it.

"Rome? He said he came from the west, which is farther west than the Western Regions. Could it be that the people who attacked our Liangzhou City came from there? There... have faces similar to our Han people?"

Cheng Yaojin was extremely confused.
