Chapter 705 Repel the enemy
The fire did not last long. After a moment, the feet of the Roman army were stained with blood. The warriors who were lucky enough to die were also fleeing everywhere. The smoke of gunpowder continued to rise from the deep pits, and the shrill screams mixed with them, forming an alternative symphony.
Seeing that the Tang soldiers no longer attacked them, many Roman warriors quickly helped the injured brothers up and turned around and quickly left this place of trouble.
In the camp, Jie Li Khan looked at Xiao Zhengtai in confusion.
"Your Highness, why don't you keep them here and instead let the tiger go back to the mountain?"
He had clearly gained a great advantage, and as long as he had just brought people up, he could definitely kill the Roman army without leaving any armor. However, at the critical moment, none of the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty followed him, which made him not act rashly.
"Our purpose is only to repel the enemy, and His Highness has made a clear decision to not be greedy for his achievements."
Cheng Chumo glanced at Jie Li and said coldly, "He is a soldier, and His Highness's orders are more than anything else, and no one can question His Highness's orders."
"It's ridiculous. I have never heard of such an order for so many years. It's really..."
Jie Li Khan was very angry. It was a pity that he missed such a good opportunity to make meritorious service, but he really had no status here. Even if he was anxious, it would be useless.
From beginning to end, Xiao Zhengtai didn't come out of the tent and didn't care about what happened outside. As long as everyone obeyed his orders, everything was under control.
He kept writing a series of numbers on the paper with the howls of wolves, and he looked down from time to time to time to ponder. This was the inspiration he found based on telegrams in later generations. The code could only be solved by finding a real way. The secret trust in the past was too ridiculous.
"Your Highness, I really don't understand. Why don't you cherish such a good advantage? It's a pity to miss it!"
Jie Li left the camp and the more he thought about it, the more he felt unhappy. Finally, he came to Xiao Zhengtai's camp and started to complain.
"The Roman army retreated?"
After hearing Jie Li's words, Xiao Zhengtai put down the pen in his hand and glanced at him faintly.
"Your Highness, I really can't figure it out, so I came over to ask Your Highness to solve the problem. After the attack of the cannon, the enemy was defeated. If I send troops, I can definitely leave them all, but your order really makes me not understand!"
Jie Li did not hide anything, and directly vomited out his unhappiness and stared at His Highness tightly. He knew that the Tang Dynasty wanted to destroy the Roman Empire, but it was a pity to give up such a good opportunity.
"Didn't you encounter such a thing when you were a Turkic Khan? Why did Hou Junji fail when he fought with you?"
After gently rubbing his head, Xiao Zhengtai felt a headache. The Turkic fighting style has always been relatively barbaric. Every battle is to shock the enemy with its fierceness and cruelty. As for the problem of strategy, they rarely consider it, so it is not surprising that Jie Li has such an idea.
"What's the meaning?"
Jie Li Khan was very confused and didn't even touch what the issue His Highness wanted to express.
"You should be aware of the situation of the Roman Empire. While invading the Tang Dynasty, it must be lower than the Arab invasion. Under such circumstances, how many Roman armies do you think there will be in the Roman city?"
He put down the pen in his hand, slowly got up and asked. If he was like these people, his thoughts were so simple, the Tang Dynasty would probably not be able to reach today.
"I dare not say that there are too many. The entire Roman Empire has at least one hundred thousand troops!"
Jie Li frowned and pondered for a moment, and spoke a vague number.
"Since that's the case, what else do you have to understand? There will definitely not be too many people who came to attack tonight. What if these Roman soldiers were the bait used by the Roman king to lure us?
With our only 10,000 people now, you want to compete with the 100,000 troops in Rome head-on. Do you think it is possible?
Although we have powerful weapons in our hands, can you guarantee that the weapons in our hands can support the elimination of a hundred thousand troops? Once we have no ammunition and food, then the prince will not need to say what will happen if we wait!"
Xiao Zhengtai had nothing to hide from Jie Li now, and directly told his guesses. Once Conscience Dante had such wisdom, it would be absolutely fatal to them.
"So that's the case, I am worthy of being Your Highness. I admire you for seeing through the entire audience so easily!"
Jie Li Khan took a breath. He did not expect that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would think so far, and would rather give up such an excellent opportunity than have any harm to the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty.
Such an enemy is really terrible. If you can still keep your calm mind at this moment, no wonder every time His Royal Highness takes command, he will return in triumph. No matter what kind of enemy it is, he will probably not face such an opponent. Once he is targeted by him, he will probably have to open his eyes even when he goes to bed at night.
Inside the Roman royal city!
Cruise rushed to the palace frantically, and from time to time he looked back, fearing that the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty would catch up.
He led 10,000 warriors to attack, but there was not even half of them who actually escaped. Of course, there were also wounded people in it.
Constellation Dante led an army of 100,000 in the royal city, waiting for the Tang Dynasty to counterattack him at all costs. Unexpectedly, what he saw was General Cruise running back in such a mess.
"What's going on? What's going on?"
Constable Dante's eyes were filled with crazy anger. Ten thousand soldiers definitely played a crucial role in the current Roman Empire. How long has it been gone, and so many people have been damaged.
"Wang, I took people to attack, but the Tang people seemed to have known that I would attack them for a long time. In order to launch an operation, we were attacked by the Tang weapons. Dazzling fireballs fell beside us, and then exploded, breaking the warriors of the empire into pieces. The Tang weapons were really terrible..."
Cruise roared with fear on his face, and his body was still trembling. He was obviously extremely afraid. He didn't even see the enemy's face, so they were defeated so completely.
What?
"You have lost so many people without success?"
After hearing such words, Constable Dante's face suddenly became ferocious, and the waste was all waste.
"Wang, what General Stanway said is true. The weapons of the Tang Dynasty are definitely not something that humans can compete with!"
Rashid covered his bleeding arms and walked back with a serious look on his face. Compared to Cruise, although he was afraid at this time, he was not as obvious as he showed.
