Chapter 377: Landing on Crete

In the autumn of the third year of the Chinese Empire, Lin An, the general of the Chinese Empire, led his soldiers to escape by boat from Constantinople, the capital of the Byzantine Empire.

And all the way to the south, directly towards the island of Crete in the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire!

Because the envoys of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire were on the town ** ship, the town ** arrived near Crete unimpeded.

Immediately, Lin An, the general of Zhenguo, ordered his soldiers to directly force a landing on Crete, and Lin An did not want to play with the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire stationed on Crete.

After all, there are only a few thousand defenders in Crete, and there are only more than 10,000 people in Crete at most, including other militias, but it is a pity that these troops can defeat tens of thousands of professional soldiers who have experienced a hundred battles.

Zhen ** obeyed the orders of Lin An, the general of Zhenguo, and landed on Crete.

It has to be said that Crete may have been comfortable all these years, so there is no coastal defense near Crete.

This provided convenience for the town, which landed on Crete with lightning speed.

After the town ** landed on Crete, the general of the town Lin An did not divide the troops, he directly led his soldiers to march towards the capital of Crete.

Roman citizens living in Crete, they saw the townsmen galloping towards the capital.

These citizens were so frightened that they shrank into a ball, but the townsmen ignored them, for the towns, these citizens of Crete in the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire were just fish in a lotus pond.

After the townsmen captured the Cretan capital, these citizens were left to the discretion of the Chinese Empire's army.

"Da-ta-da! Click! Click! ”

The soldiers of the Cretan town rushed towards Crete, but the generals and officials in charge of the Cretan capital did not know it.

This group of people is still the same as before, how to live, how to live, unaware that the town ** is about to arrive in the capital.

It wasn't until the townsmen were about to arrive in the Cretan capital that the defenders noticed an army coming towards them.

That's right, Lin An, the general of Zhenguo, did not arrange for his soldiers to rest for a while, for Lin An and the soldiers, the place they had to rest could only be the capital of Crete.

The general of Crete was enjoying his life in his palace, but at this moment, the defenders of Crete hurriedly walked in.

Before the Cretan general could get angry, the Cretan defenders told him of the fact that a huge army was coming towards them.

When the Cretan general heard this, he didn't want to be angry, and he hurried to the city wall of the Cretan capital with his defenders, and watched the army in the distance from afar.

When the Cretan general saw this scene, he couldn't help but look dark, and he could naturally see where the distant army came from.

This army is the mercenary army from the Chinese Empire: Zhen **, General Crete has also dealt with Lin An, the general of Zhenguo, several times before.

I have to say that General Crete and Lin An still have a certain friendship, after all, General Crete is a gentle person.

Because of this, General Crete is now dark, and he never dreamed that Lin An, who had a good relationship with him, would actually come to attack him.

He also couldn't imagine that Lin An would be so bold, Lin An would dare to rebel against the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire, in the Cretan General's thoughts, Lin An's betrayal of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire would be of no benefit to anyone.

The reason why the Cretan general had this idea was because he did not know that the Byzantine Emperor of the Eastern Roman Empire, Basil. Macedonia had broken its alliance with the Chinese Empire.

Just as the Cretan general was thinking about something, the town ** had already arrived at the gate of the city of Crete.

General Crete frowned and asked loudly to the townsmen below, "General Lin from the Huaxia Empire, I don't know what you are doing when you come to my Crete today?" ”

Lin An smiled disdainfully, and he shouted loudly: "Hehe, hehehe, what am I going to do?" I'm going to get something from the Cretan general! ”

Take something? General Crete's brows furrowed even more, and he could naturally see that Lin An, the general of the Zhenguo below, wanted to attack him.

But General Crete didn't want to attack the town ** below, he knew that he couldn't defeat the town ** at all.

The outstanding achievements of the town ** were spread among the generals and governors of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire, and the Cretan general was not stupid, he naturally understood what his army was like.

The Cretan generals' armies were stationed on Crete all year round, and they were no match for even the more than 1,000 followers of the Arab Abbasids.

Repeatedly the island of Crete was invaded by the Arabs, and it was the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire that sent troops to rescue them, and such an army could not reach the town at all.

The Cretan general shouted down to the bottom, "Take something?" What to take? I don't remember owing you anything. ”

Lin An smiled indifferently: "Hehe, hahahahaha, what I asked you to get is Crete, as long as you can open the city gate to welcome our army into the city, then our army will not go on a killing spree!" Otherwise, hehe! ”

General Crete's pupils shrank, he gritted his teeth and looked at Lin An, the general of Zhenguo below, and said: "General Lin, we have no grievances, and you are a mercenary of our Roman Empire, how can you send troops to attack me?" Even if you want to attack, you should choose a place close to it! ”

The corners of Zhenguo's general Lin An's mouth rose and looked at General Crete and smiled faintly: "Hehe, it seems that General Crete doesn't know some things yet!" ”

Now Lin An, the general of Zhenguo, is not in a hurry to attack the capital of Crete, anyway, for Lin An, Crete is already in the palm of his hand.

Lin An was also happy to take a few minutes to chat with the Cretan general who was in charge of the military administration of Crete on the upper floor of the city.

The general of Zhenguo, Lin An, pulled out the envoys of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire that he had brought with him before, and the general of Zhenguo Lin An asked the envoys to bring the Emperor of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire, Basil. The Macedonian decision informed the Cretan general.

Now that the envoy of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire has surrendered to Zhen**, he also knows that he can only do things for Zhen**.

The envoy of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire bowed ninety degrees to the general of Crete according to the etiquette of the Chinese Empire, then straightened up and said with a smile:

"General Crete, you have not yet heard that the current Emperor of the Byzantine Empire of Eastern Rome is Basil. Macedonia has broken its alliance with our Chinese Empire.

The Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire is ready to send troops to attack the Chinese Empire, and since the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire is already going to attack, why can't our army fight you?

To put it bluntly, General Lin An just chose to protect himself! Looking at the geographical environment, Crete is relatively safe. ”

When the Cretan general heard this, he was very surprised on the one hand, and on the other hand, he heard that the envoy of the Byzantine Empire in Eastern Rome actually surrendered to the town **, and came to lobby him, his nose was about to be crooked.

The Cretan generals stretched out their hands and pointed to the city tower, the emissary of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire, who was born on the island of Crete and is now a surrender town, was speechless for a long time.

The envoy of the Eastern Roman Byzantine Empire who surrendered the town ** saw that the Cretan general did not speak, he smiled coldly and asked again: "What?" Cretan general, why don't you speak? ”

The Cretan general was now feeling a headache, and while his heart was burning with anger, he was also angry with the defenders of the Aegean Islands.

The defenders of the Aegean Islands actually let the general of the Zhenguo state Lin An lead the army to him like this, and the Cretan general did not expect that the emperor of the Byzantine Empire of Eastern Rome would actually tear up the alliance with the Chinese Empire.
