Constantly attacking, the supplies of the Don army flowed out, and as many as 100,000 lives fell under the walls of Constantinople!

Different from the "Conquest 1453" in parallel space, when the Ottoman Turkey State attacked Constantinople in the Upper Eastern Rome, the Eastern Rome was already isolated and its national power was seriously weakened, and its territory was only a corner of Constantinople.

Constantinople, which is fighting with the Tang people today, has money, people, and things, and is very bold at the beginning, but if it were not for the long-term siege, which will constantly weaken their strength and make them lose their fighting spirit, they are only afraid of attacking the city, and they will also fight with the Byzantines, and fall into cruel street battles.

After more than half a year of siege, the time was late July in 698 AD, Wei Xi thought that the time was ripe, and gave a third trick to teach the Tang army to dig tunnels and carry out multiple bombings!

As an infrastructure maniac, the Tang army dug twenty tunnels in one go, extending from the ground to the city walls of Constantinople.

Did the Byzantines know?

It's clear!

They knew how to use pottery placed underground to listen to the movements of the underground, and the movements of the Tang people could not hide their ears, so they dug trenches along the inner side of the outer city and waited for the arrival of the Tang army.

It's a pity that they will never wait for the arrival of the Tang Army, what they are waiting for is...

It was still early, and there was a fog on the sea, and a shallow mist hung over the heavens and the earth. Constantinople looms in the depths of the fog, worthy of being a heroic city, and when the Tang army did not attack the city, it was awe-inspiring on the ground.

Countless non-commissioned officers of the Tang Army marched towards the city, and the men and horses did not see the head and the tail.

The golden flying tiger flag of the Tang Army was raised in the center, and Wei Xi came!

The honor of breaking through the thousand-year-old imperial capital can only fall on him, and no one else can be used.

The generals who could come came, including Fan Wuxian, Cheng Boxi, Lazhahan, Yousufu, Jiang Shi, etc., were all there, serving by Wei Xi's side, and everyone was waiting.

Knowing that the Tang army was gathered, and the big boss arrived, the bells rang everywhere in Constantinople, and the Byzantines rushed to all battle positions.

So what, the fate of Constantinople is already sealed!

Everyone raised their heads and looked at the city towers and city walls in the depths of the clouds, a scene that everyone was looking forward to...... Because it is not clear to see, the towers, fortresses, and battlements in the haze appear more majestic, as if standing in the clouds.

But when a series of loud noises have passed, everything is illusory!

Ten huge balls of smoke rise into the air!

Then the earth shook, as if the heavens were cracking, and the city fell.

The Tang army made a big move, and a large number of explosives were buried under the city of Constantinople in ten places, and they detonated at the same time, as if a volcanic eruption in ten places, the debris flew out a few miles away, and after landing, it rained, and the billowing smoke and dust drowned the Tang army troops!

When the dust settled, everyone saw that the heroic appearance of the city no longer existed, and there were ten places and the surrounding half of the dwarf, making Constantinople look very ugly!

"Rush!"

"Kill!"

"Fight for the king!"

"Our army will win!"

The Don brigade rushed to Constantinople, and the long-range units stormed the inner walls of Constantinople like a torrential rain, and it was immediately stormed, previously covered by the outer walls, and now the inner walls were attacked in a flood of attacks.

However, the first assault on Constantinople frightened the Byzantines, who fought desperately and fought inextricably with the invading Don army. ……

At two o'clock in the afternoon, there were ten loud bangs, and the blow fell on the inner city wall!

Taking advantage of the attack from above to contain the Byzantines, the Tang army engineers advanced again, piled up a large amount of explosives under the inner city wall, and detonated them continuously!

Just when the earth was still shaking, Wei Xi drew his sword and pointed it at Constantinople, and he said loudly: "Once the thousand-year-old imperial capital is broken, my Tang army will always have a good reputation!" ”

"Rush me!"

In the deafening shouting and killing, the magnificent thousands of troops and horses galloped into the thick smoke and white fog, and countless Tang troops did not hesitate to roll up in the diffuse gunsmoke.

This time, it was the authentic Tang people, their shouts of killing were deafening, and their morale soared, climbing to an unprecedented peak.

The non-authentic Tang people are watching the battle, and they are not dissatisfied... Wei Xi announced that all the foreigners who participated in the war would become Tang people, and they would be amnestied!

In this way, they can proudly say that they captured Constantinople and will not bury their merits.

The Byzantines were completely terrified and could not react for a long time.

The Tang army trudged through the mounds of rubble and climbed the collapsed city wall, the smoke and dust dispersed, and they saw the second gap with their own eyes. At this moment, the Don army cheered loudly, and they rushed straight into the city along the road that had already shown a ramp!

Everywhere there were cavalry rushing, all the men and horses of the Tang Army.

Two successive explosions buried an unknown number of Byzantines above and below the city, and the living Byzantines were also stunned.

The troops burst into the city, rapidly advanced in depth, and rushed to the city along the predetermined road.

Bells rang everywhere in the city to warn you, and Constantinople was boiling!

All the men, who were able to take up their weapons, all went into battle to block the arrival of the Tang army.

Brutal street fighting immediately began, and they resisted heroically.

It's a pity that the building is about to fall, and the Tang army has entered the city, just like a beautiful woman who has taken off her clothes, can she still be spared!

The Tang army's rockets and thunder artillery first fired indiscriminately, and then extended the fire to open the way for the army, and many Byzantines were killed and wounded before they could see the Tang people (at this time, they were not well armored or not at all, and only went into battle with a weapon).

The fire and smoke in the depths of the city gradually spread, and there were surging horses and people in all directions, and the cries of the Tang people were everywhere, and the whole city was like a flood levee collapsed, and the flood was raging, and everything was irreparable!

……

Emperor Tiberius III of Constantinople was in charge of the palace, and he calmed himself down and put all his troops to use, including the Janissaries in the palace to block the Tang army and try to drive it out of the city.

But he was disappointed, what he heard was that Tang Jun's voice was getting louder and closer.

He sat on the throne, and at this moment, he remembered what the previous emperor Leon Titus, whom he had killed, had said on his deathbed: he had seen the golden Flying Tiger Flag planted on the dome of Hagia Sophia!

The palace is located on the vantage point of the city, with a wide view, and Tiberius III really saw the golden flying tiger flag fluttering over the Hagia Sophia.

He covered his face and was infinitely painful!

As a soldier, he is not afraid of death, but he is afraid of the reputation behind him, he is the last emperor of Eastern Rome, and he will be nailed to the monument of shame in history forever!

"At the very least, let me die like a soldier!"

When the Tang army attacked the palace, they saw a person dressed in golden armor, like a golden god, striding towards them!
