Chapter 722: Second-rate nobles
Tang Zhaozong said: "Like that female governor Hou Xiaojing is just a second-rate nobleman, she is not worth mentioning at all compared to our royal family. β§ pineβ§ Luo said that this woman is not Tang Zhangwei's descendant, why can't I move her? β
Empress He said: "Of course you can move her, but I don't want to see you get into trouble after moving her." β
Tang Zhaozong said: "You are too worried, what's the trouble? There are no troubles, these troubles are things that exist in your imagination. β
Empress He said: "Then you send an elite army there, anyway, the newly established Kingdom of David is fighting with many Turkic tribes." You just killed that female governor Hou Xiaojing in the name of the Turkic tribe, and no one dared to say anything. β
Tang Zhaozong said: "This plan is very good, we can pretend to be the Turkic wolf-headed gods, we can let those wolf-headed gods bless, so as to destroy those enemies who are not good for us." β
Empress He said: "I really didn't expect that those enemies who are not right with us will also have a certain use. β
Tang Zhaozong laughed, and he said: "Everyone is useful, just a pile of cow dung, and it can be used as fuel." β
Empress He and Tang Zhaozong used large wooden birds to transport a large number of troops to the Ottoman administrative region.
Tang Zhaozong even came to the Ottoman administrative region in person, and Empress He also prayed every day to bless Tang Zhaozong with victory in the Ottoman administrative region.
Although Tang Zhaozong's wife, Empress He, prayed every day, when Tang Zhaozong encountered the newly established Kingdom of David, he found that he could not take advantage of it.
Because she felt uneasy, Empress He personally came to Tang Zhaozong's side, and Empress He's arrival boosted the morale of those Tang Zhaozong's subordinates to a certain extent. However, the chiefs of those Turkic tribes whispered that they were worried that they were being used by Tang Zhaozong.
Of course, Tang Zhaozong's large amount of Tang treasure money made the cavalry generals of these Turkic tribes willing to fight with David's cavalry and infantry.
After all, the people of the Kingdom of David had been wiped out by the Roman Empire and had been wandering for a thousand years, so as soon as they had a place to stand, these people were like hungry wolves one by one, and they all wanted to keep their territory from outsiders.
Tang Zhaozong united the Turkic forces and sent an army of 50,000 against the newly established Kingdom of David.
In the Kingdom of David, the rabbis of David were praying that God would bless Shakboqiang.
People are under the Wailing Wall, praying devoutly, expecting a miracle.
These people believed in miracles, but Tang Zhangwei knew that if Catherine's troops did not help Shi Baoqiang, then the newly established Kingdom of David would be defeated.
In fact, when Tang Zhaozong started the war, he was indeed full of ambition.
After all, in Tang Zhaozong's eyes, it was too simple for his 50,000 army to wipe out the 10,000 troops of the Kingdom of David.
However, Catherine's 10,000 troops also came to the Ottoman Special Administrative Region, so the war had some prospects.
After all, compared to Tang Zhaozong's troops, and the cavalry of those Turkic tribes.
Catherine's cavalry was well-trained, and none of them were afraid of death.
When Tang Zhaozong commanded an army of 50,000 to surround David's capital, he was triumphant, and Tang Zhaozong said to his Turkic general Pasako: "Look, I will kill all those rebellions of David's kingdom one by one." β
However, in this war, Catherine's 10,000 cavalry was the biggest variable, and what Tang Zhaozong didn't expect was that Tang Zhangwei actually personally helped the people of the Kingdom of David to command the battlefield battle.
Because Catherine had never commanded a battle of this scale before, Tang Zhangwei was afraid that Catherine's command would be wrong, so that the blood of the 10,000 cavalry would be spattered on the spot.
Therefore, Tang Zhangwei replaced Catherine and personally commanded these people to fight.
After all, in Tang Zhangwei's eyes, only victory can protect the Kingdom of David and allow these people to continue to survive in this promised land.
At the beginning of the war, the balance of victory was actually tilted on the side of the Turkic army commanded by Tang Zhaozong, after all, the 50,000 Turkic army and Tang Zhaozong's troops were all cavalry.
David's army consisted of only 5,000 cavalry and 5,000 infantry, while Catherine's cavalry, though elite, did not go through a major battle.
However, Tang Zhangwei replaced this with his vast experience in warfare.
At the same time, the Ottoman governor Hou Xiaojing personally used the inventory weapons of the Tang Dynasty to help the people of the Kingdom of David, and these people, relying on the help of the Tang Dynasty, quickly formed an advantage over the Turks.
When the Turkic cavalry surrounded the capital of David, Tang Zhangwei and Catherine immediately returned fire with fierce fuel tanks, trebuchets, and artillery.
The Turks hurriedly shot arrows, and the composite white iron plate armor produced by Fisher's arsenal blocked the Turks' shots.
However, on the other hand, the Davidian cavalry, as well as Catherine's cavalry, used strong crossbows and bed crossbows, which made the Turks unbearable.
Under the attack of these people, those Turks rushed one after another, Tang Zhaozong could hardly believe his eyes, he asked Empress He: "Why can't these Turks resist the attack of those David's new army?" β
Empress He said: "As long as you control the situation, we have the possibility of turning defeat into victory, don't despair." β
However, Tang Zhangwei commanded his subordinates to wantonly slash and slaughter the cavalry of those Turkic tribes, and Tang Zhaozong's core troops were trapped and dragged by those Davidian cavalry and Davidian infantry.
After Tang Zhangwei had dealt with the cavalry of the Turkic tribes, they turned around and attacked Tang Zhaozong's subordinates, Tang Zhaozong burst into tears, but he failed to control the situation.
When the war ended, Tang Zhaozong's orchestrated alliance no longer existed.
After the victory of the Ottoman governor Hou Xiaojing, she held a grand welcome dinner for the soldiers of the Kingdom of David, but at this dinner, Hou Xiaojing unexpectedly found that she was no longer the protagonist.
Tang Zhaozong and Empress He remained in a small Turkic camp, hoping for a chance to turn things around.
Of course, those Turkic scimitars were not polite to them, but fortunately, this time Tang Zhaozong still retained a guard of nearly 1,000 people, and this guard could still ensure Tang Zhaozong's safety.
After this victory, Catherine's appetite for power was reinstated, and she wanted to occupy the position of Ottoman governor.
Of course, Tang Zhangwei could only hint to Hou Xiaojing through Shi Baoqiang.
However, the female governor Hou Xiaojing was unwilling to give way. As a last resort, Tang Zhangwei had to lead troops to arrest Hou Xiaojing.
