"Great Marshal, Elidogan and Amdullah are already fighting in Byzantium, and this time they have used all their strength, and it seems that they are going to die for the rest of their lives." When Liu Xuan hurriedly rushed to Wan Yi after receiving Xuan Yingwei's report, in fact, the battle of Byzantium was basically over at this time, and Eridoan was even preparing to evacuate at night. It's just that because of the delay in the transmission of intelligence, the two could not understand the real situation of the battlefield at the first time.

"Has Xuan Yingwei's plan been arranged?" An inexplicable look appeared on Wan Yi's face, but it was only a flash, so Liu Xuan next to him didn't pay attention, but said to himself: "The deputy who stayed in the Byzantine region on Qinkong's side has already started the plan before sending back the information, and now that I think about it, I'm afraid that Eridoan has reached the most critical moment." ”

"Yes, Elidoan can be regarded as the best general of the Great Qin Empire, whether it is strategic planning or tactical calculation, he is more than one step ahead of others, but unfortunately, he was born at the wrong time, and there is no comrade-in-arms around him, he is doomed to failure." Wan Yi smiled bitterly: "I hope he doesn't have the idea of dying together in the end, we can't intervene in this matter." However, even if Elidoan is gone, Daqin's navy cannot be damaged, otherwise it will be our turn to take action in the Mediterranean in the future. Leave an opponent for the Great Cannibal, and an opponent for the future Imperial Navy. Wan Yi's words made Liu Xuan feel empathy, so he hurriedly turned around and went out to give orders. And immediately, Wan Yi gave the latest order to the front-line Hamoud and Wujie, once the war between Da Shi and Da Qin in Byzantium was decided, no matter which side fell, the land from the Asia Minor Peninsula to the Caspian Sea must be completely taken and included under the rule of the Tang Dynasty, so that one arm of the Tang Dynasty will directly extend to the Mediterranean coast through the Aral Sea, the Caspian Sea and the Black Sea, a series of inland lakes on the vast plateau in the northwest, completely cutting off the land communication channel between Daqin and Da Shi.

This is the Tang Dynasty's already calculated strategy, but also the beginning of the split of Tessie, the Tang Dynasty's forces through Egypt and Asia Minor two ports like a pair of arms tightly in their own hands, just like the current Taixi Although the overall situation has changed several times, but it is like a chess player playing chess, no matter how the chess pieces move, they can never get out of control, and can only struggle between the prescribed square inches.

Datang, whether it is the base camp or the commander of the army at the front, has always controlled the changes in the situation of Taixi in his own hands, but as an excellent chess piece on the chessboard, Eridoan's situation is already very bad at this time. When Ulam's cavalry appeared, Elidogan knew that his operation had failed tonight, at least under this crazy cavalry assault, his last 20,000 men could not escape the pursuit of the cavalry, even with the help of the navy. At the critical moment, Elidoan immediately led the remnants of the army to resist, and asked the sailors to immediately board the ship as fast as possible, and then start the battleships to line up along the coastline for powerful artillery bombardment. He was determined to sacrifice his own life to buy time for the sailors to get on board. At this time, Josel, who was in charge of commanding the naval fleet, also saw the urgency of the situation, and when the eighteen warships in his core were still able to maintain basic navigation, he took the lead in raising sails and then opened fire to support Eridogan. The artillery shelling at close range did play a great role, and even during the shelling, Ulam himself was accustomed to being taken directly from his war horse by a piece of shrapnel. However, it only slowed down the momentum of the charge of the Great Eater Cavalry. Although the cavalry could not be used in a small area such as the port wharf, both Ulam and Elidogan, who were injured and snatched back, knew that this was the time to strike a decisive blow, so Ullam almost did not blink an eye and ordered all the cavalry to abandon all objectives and go straight to the area defended by Eridogan, and at the cost of the lives of the horses and cavalry, they fought a way out, and directly leveled all the obstacles and fortifications along the way. In this way, Elidogan only held out until the sailors were on board, and his men were already dead and wounded. In the past, he still had 100,000 troops in the Sofia area, but at this time, only a few personal guards around him were still loyally persistent.

The army did not hesitate to block the attack of the Great Eater cavalry at the cost of their own lives, which also made those sailors who got on the ship instantly red-eyed, especially their own commander was still insisting on the dock, so whether it was Josel or other sailors, they were crazy at this time and fired at the sound of the Great Eater cavalry that was constantly flashing in the distance, and the rumbling artillery fire almost completely overturned the entire Byzantine dock. During the fierce battle, Josel even went ashore to protect Elidoan's retreat.

"General, you must retreat, don't make senseless sacrifices." In front of Eridoan, Josel shouted hoarsely: "The thousands of soldiers of the Imperial Navy are still waiting for your return, they are all warriors of all races that you have personally recruited, and they are representing you in the entire Mediterranean, you cannot abandon them at this most critical and dangerous moment." Josel saw that Elidoan was not going to get on the boat, so he didn't wait for the other party's answer, so he went directly to pick him up and forcibly picked him up, and then rushed directly to the boat regardless of it.

Elidoan's departure meant that the final battle between Great Qin and Great Food on land was over, and it also meant that Elidoan's painstakingly planned counteroffensive plan had been completely defeated. The Great Food Army, led by Amdullah, achieved brilliant results in the Balkans. But until the next day, Amdullah returned to Byzantium, the general who had already made a name for himself, did not smile at all, and even stood alone on a tall building in Byzantium, muttering, with a confused look on his face.

"General, where should we go next?" Although Ulam was injured last night, it was nothing to him, so after Amdullah's anomaly was discovered by everyone, he was pushed up by everyone, intending to inquire about the next move of the Great Eclipse Army.

"Let everybody go and cut down trees and make rafts and boats at once, and we'll withdraw tonight and go home." Amdullah's words surprised Ulam, and he hurriedly asked the reason, in his opinion, winning the battle of Eridogan was almost a complete defeat of the last formed army unit of the Great Qin Empire, and the rest could almost lead the troops directly into the opponent's royal court Rome, and then declare that the entire Great Qin Empire had become the pasture of the Abbasids. But at this time, the order issued by his own commander was actually that the whole army immediately retreated back to Baghdad?

"You don't understand." Amdullah sighed and said, "Although Elidoan failed in the end, do you think we can be much better than him?" How many cavalry do you have now? How many men are left in our musket corps? Eridoan certainly exhausted the last of Great Qin's established soldiers and horses, aren't we? We're the same, and we're worse than him. The Great Qin Empire, at least for now, still has the output to draw young adults, and a large navy. As for us, we can't pull any more manpower. If these last 40,000 people in your hands and I are wiped out again, do you know what will happen to Baghdad? The empire will collapse completely, and all the tribes that we have conquered before will take the opportunity to rebel, because the empire has lost its last suppressive power. ”

Amdullah's last sigh was accompanied by a strong unwillingness, but also the end of a glorious era. As he said, this battle, whether he and Elidoan could win it, was a crushing victory without any spoils, and even a war that was doomed to defeat. On the surface, it seems that he has won, but his army of 200,000 before the war has only less than 50,000 people left until now, exhausting the last glimmer of hope for the empire. Although Eridoan failed, he managed to use the last of his strength to cripple himself, leaving him without the ability to take a step forward. What's more, the other party's huge navy has not been damaged at all, and the territory of Great Qin has not changed in the slightest, as long as there is time, it will be able to recover faster than the Great Eclipse. And what about yourself and the Great Food Empire? I'm afraid that there is no hope of rising again.

Amdullah's bitter arrangement for Ulam quickly began to make the means to cross the sea, preparing to evacuate Byzantium and return to Baghdad, and Elidogan, who had already been put on the ship and left, also had the same thoughts as him, and muttered silently on the bow of the ship. It's just that what he is thinking about is not his own way back, his naval strength has not been damaged, so even if his army is wiped out after this battle, Amdullah will not have the strength to attack the hinterland of the empire along the Balkan Peninsula, and this confidant will finally be peaceful no matter what. Presumably, now Amdullah has also led his troops out of Byzantium, right? Eridogan did not arrange for manpower to block the opponent when he crossed the sea, in his opinion, this war has ended now, both Great Qin and Great Food have failed strategically, exhausted their vitality, and even the military strength to suppress other forces in the country has been exhausted in this last battle. I'm afraid that after this war, it is a question of whether my country can still exist.

When Josel saw Eridoan standing still for a long time, he thought that the other party was still angry that Luther did not arrive in time, so he walked up to him and said, "Your Excellency, Luther may have been in trouble, so he lost contact with us, and he will not betray the general." ”

"Let's go, order the fleet back to Taranto, and send clippers along the way to inform the Duma generals in Athens, so that they can get ready and listen to orders." Elidoan sighed and began to return Josel to the fleet's new home port of Taranto, where his lieutenant Luther was secretly communicating with a cardinal. And what they discussed with each other turned out to be to betray the only pillar of the empire.

After the royal power of the Great Qin Empire had consumed too much strength in the conquest, another important force in the Taixi Continent raised its head again at this time, preparing to seize the ruling power of Taixi. Even this time, because the royal court of the Great Qin Empire had moved back from Byzantium to Rome, it was easier for them to carry out their plans. And the most important part of this is the naval power of Eridoan and Daqin. As the only pillar of the Great Qin Empire at present, Elidoan's prestige and ability far surpass that of Dodell and others, and he also holds the Great Qin Naval Fleet, so it can be said that as long as he ascends to the heights, he can stop any changes in the Great Qin country. And for the Holy See to succeed and move from religion to local control, it must get rid of Eridoan.

Luther, the admiral who, like Josel, was a trusted assistant to Elidoan had been successfully recruited by the Holy See, and it was for this reason that he began to betray Elidoan when he returned to negotiate with the Holy See about the Crusaders entering the Byzantine front. However, what they did not expect was that although Elidoan was defeated in Byzantium, he did not die under the Byzantine city because of Josel's loyalty, but returned to Taranto with the fleet without them noticing. In this way, both the Holy See and Luther, who wanted to take control of the naval fleet instead, miscalculated.

"Hmph, you're doomed to fail, now it's our turn." In another castle in Taranto, the same cardinal, but the young man dressed as the dark guard of the Xuanying Guard truthfully reported the latest actions of the Holy See, including the measures against Eridoan and the fleet who had just returned to Hong Kong.

"If they want to plot against Elidoan, so can we. Archbishop Polo, you should now be able to take control of one side as well, and it's time to use your talents to convince Eledoan to fight back and open the door to the Tessie split. The young man's voice and words made the cardinal's face turn a little red, and he muttered to himself, "Will Eridoan promise us?" ”

"Won't you tell Luther about him? As long as Luther and Eridoan are in conflict, then he can only rely on you and rely on us. The young man again spoke out the most important purpose of the trip, "Well, Archbishop Polo, the affairs of the Apennines are left to you, whether you can control this land or not is up to you, I should go around Gaul, I heard that the Gauls hiding in the overseas island of England have now begun to return." ”

"Rest assured, my most precious master, your most faithful servant will accomplish this task." Archbishop Polo saluted respectfully to the young man, and it was clear that he had lost sight of the ground beneath his feet.

"Go and give the order down, inform the members of the secret guard in Venice and Florence, and ask them to immediately set up a plan to spread the news of Elidoan's defeat on the Eastern Front, and then activate the shadows, let these two places make trouble first, and give Polo a little confidence." After the departure of Archbishop Polo, the young man also showed his true face, as Qin Kong's assistant in Taixi, unlike Ah Liu, who stayed in Byzantium and other places to experience life and death tests, Ah Gui in the Apennine region was the main operator in promoting the dismemberment of Taisi. And as his orders were quickly conveyed by the secret guards, an accident that enveloped the entire Taixi Continent began to start in the Apennine Peninsula, the heart of the Great Qin Empire.

Coincidentally, when Ah Gui started it, Ah Liu also started his own plan after withdrawing from Byzantium. The two empires of Great Qin and Great Food had just broken away from the battlefield and came to the road of splitting, and they were out of control. (https:)
