Datang's strongest super god army

Chapter 270 Attack of Byzantium!
Chapter 270 Attack of Byzantium!
By the time the people from Dongnvguo spread the news of Persia's full-scale invasion by Byzantium to Fu Lan, Chang'an City had already ushered in the early summer.

Fu Lan looked at the envoy of Dongnv Kingdom who was kneeling in front of her, her delicate brows were slightly frowned.As a former ruler, she smelled something weird in this war that was almost effortless for Byzantium.

If this matter is placed in Persia, which has not yet been attacked by the Black Dragon Army, then it is not difficult to understand that Byzantium wants to embezzle a powerful and wealthy empire.But today's Persia has long lost its former glory, and has even become a bit miserable.

Fu Lan wouldn't believe that the king of Byzantium was a benevolent and charitable person. If it wasn't for Persia, then what would it be for?Fu Lan doesn't think Tocharian and Dongnvguo are qualified to let Byzantium send troops thousands of miles away, so what is the purpose of Byzantine's move?
After Fu Lan told the envoy of the Eastern Girl Kingdom to go down to rest, she got up and walked to the window to stare at the curly plantain leaves outside the window.

Suddenly an idea appeared in Fu Lan's mind.

Datang!

After thinking about it, Fu Lan became more and more sure that Byzantium was making such a big move this time, and the occupation of Persia was just a cover-up for them. As for their real goal... A sneer emerged from the corner of Fu Lan's mouth.

"Is the general back?"

After figuring out the joints, Fu Lan opened the door and went out to ask a question.

The servant standing outside the door folded his hands in front of him, and replied respectfully: "The general hasn't returned to the mansion yet, if the second wife has something to do, I will go and invite the general back."

Today is the wedding day of Li Ji's daughter and the third son of the eldest grandson Wuji's family. The two families posted a post together. Even if Chen Qiao is too lazy to join in the fun, he still has to show his face.Li Lizhi was just out of confinement, just when she wanted to walk around, she also went out with Chen Qiao.As for Fu Lan, she had known earlier that Dongnvguo sent people to Chang'an City, and calculated the date and guessed that Xu would arrive within a day or two, so she didn't go out.

Fu Lan frowned and thought for a while, and finally waved her hand, "Forget it, you go outside and look around. If the general comes back, please ask the general to wait for me in the study."

"Yes."

The servant took the order and walked outside.

"Boom" thunder rang out, and the sky that had been clear just now became cloudy in an instant.

"Second Madam, it looks like it's going to rain heavily, you'd better go back to the house first." Xia Rong said with a worried face.

Fu Lan glanced at Xia Rong, and finally turned back to the room.

The roaring thunder in the sky made people uneasy. Fu Lan had only heard about the distant Byzantine Empire before. It is said that the current Byzantine king is very militaristic, and has launched no less than ten wars in just a few years of his reign.The surrounding small countries suffered a lot because of this, and those who were willing to submit surrendered early, and those who were unwilling to surrender finally succumbed to Byzantine's powerful force.

In just one stick of incense, there were bean-sized raindrops falling outside, and a rain curtain was drawn under the eaves in a short time.Fu Lan looked outside through the open window, and the plantain leaves that were still shining in the sun just now had become miserable under the washing of the rain.

The room gradually became dark, but before long, candles were already lit in the room.Fu Lan held the thin sheet of paper in her hands, a deep scratch appeared between her eyebrows.

If Byzantium made up its mind to do something to Datang, as the door of Datang, it would have to live a very uneasy life in Dongnu Kingdom.After all, she was once the queen of Dongnv Country, so Fu Lan still couldn't stop worrying about the people of Dongnv Country.

A gust of wind blew into the room from the open window, bringing in a few raindrops along with it. The seemingly helpless candle was blown out under the strong wind, but in the end, it held on until the wind cleared. , calm again.

Half an hour later, the servant Fu Lan sent to wait for Chen Qiao at the door came back and reported, "Second Madam, the general has returned, and is waiting for you to pass by in the study."

Fu Lan nodded, told the servant to go down, then got up and walked to the study.

Because the doors and windows were closed, the study room was darker than Fu Lan's room. When Fu Lan first came in, Chen Qiaozheng asked his servants to bring candles and light them.

"What happened?"

Sitting in the study, as soon as Chen Qiao raised his head, he saw Fu Lan with a dignified expression, and asked aloud.

After lighting the candles, the servants exited the study one after another. After the last person went out and closed the door, Fu Lan put the paper that he had been holding on the desk in front of Chen Qiao.

Seeing that Fu Lan didn't say a word, Chen Qiao picked up the page and read it. After he read it at a glance, a little surprise appeared in his eyes.

"Persia was captured by Byzantium?"

Hearing Chen Qiao's question, Fu Lan nodded slowly.

"Husband, I'm worried that the purpose of this Byzantine business is not Persia." While speaking, Fu Lan looked at Chen Qiao with a sad expression.

Chen Qiao sneered, "It's just a crumbling empire, why would you send a thriving and powerful empire to attack? Could it be that the Byzantines were so benevolent? They just wanted to take Persia as a transit point. "

"I think so too," Fu Lan frowned and said, "Compared to Persia, I think Byzantium should be more interested in Datang."

Chen Qiao twitched the corner of his mouth, "That's right," Chen Qiao's eyes fell on the candlelight in the room, and his tone became cold, "I'm afraid, it will be a while before things will be peaceful."

Fu Lan sighed softly, "The national power of Dongnv Country is weak, if Byzantium really wants to do something to Tang Dynasty, I am afraid that Dongnv Country will bear the brunt of it," said Fu Lan, looking at Chen Qiao sadly, " Husband, I am worried that Dongnv will..."

She didn't say what she said, but Chen Qiao knew what she didn't say. She was afraid that Dongnu would become the next country to fall under the iron heel of Byzantium.

"Don't be afraid," Chen Qiao got up and walked to Fu Lan's side, "Since I am here, I will send people from the Jifeng Battalion to investigate the news. If Byzantium really wants to send troops to Dongnu Kingdom, I will personally lead the Black Dragon Army go."

Fu Lan grabbed Chen Qiao's sleeve tightly and was speechless for a moment.

"The king of Byzantium would not be a fool, but now we are going to investigate his details, presumably he has already sent people to sneak into the Tang Dynasty to find out the truth." Chen Qiao's hand fell on Fu Lan's shoulder, and his voice was calm Said.

The wind outside was getting stronger and stronger, and the sound of the rain was getting faster and faster. The two of them stood and sat close to each other in the study.

"They... If they want to do something, I'm afraid it won't take more than two months." Fu Lan said.

Chen Qiao nodded, "I think so too." After speaking, Chen Qiao sat down beside Fu Lan again, and asked, "You were close before, do you know anything about Byzantium?"

After taking a deep breath, Fu Lan also calmed down a lot. She looked at Chen Qiao and said, "The current Byzantine king has only been in power for five or six years, but he is a man with strong wrists. He has only been in power for two years. In [-], there were still many voices against his militarism in the court of Byzantium. These people, headed by his uncle, constrained the policies he wanted to implement. He first hibernated and waited for the time to come. Suppressing those people would mean ransacking their families and exterminating their families at every turn, and the methods were so cruel that many centrists who survived by chance immediately surrendered, and dared not have any objections."

Hearing this, Chen Qiao couldn't help frowning, it seems that this is still a man with a lot of artifice.

"In the next few years, because there was no one in the court who could fight against him, he started a bold expedition to invade. Many small countries saw that Byzantium was getting stronger day by day, so they became his voluntarily. Dependent countries, as for those who want to resist, they will only end up in the same fate as Persia today."

After Fu Lan finished speaking, she looked at Chen Qiao calmly.
