The flags representing Rome and Nicosia disappeared, and the flags of the Han Dynasty flew high above the city of Nicosia.

Later that day, the scout reported: "Report to your Majesty, the Roman defeated soldiers boarded the ship from the west bank and had fled westward."

Liu Xian touched his chin and muttered: "This Monica ran so resolutely!"

Guan Yu clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, although the Romans were defeated, they had a lot of strength left. Although this Monica was just a woman, she was very decisive.

If our army turned to all of us to Byzantium at this time, I am afraid that Monica would suddenly turn back and attack us by surprise.”

Liu Xian thought, "What do you mean is to divide the troops into two groups, continue to pursue the Roman army, and the other group heads north to rescue Byzantium?"

Guan Yu clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty is wise! This is exactly what the last general wants!"

Liu Xian nodded thinking and said, "In this case, dividing troops in two groups should be the best choice."

He glanced at the generals standing below and said resolutely: "Captain Yun led half of the Han army and the main force of the Hun cavalry to continue to advance westward. The Romans were defeated from Nicosia and would definitely retreat to Crete.

Crete's strategic position is very important. It is not only a necessary way for our army to continue westward, but also a control of the throat of maritime traffic that enters northward into Byzantine. This battle cannot be missed, so please be careful."

Guan Yu smiled proudly and said, "What a barbarian is worth mentioning. Your Majesty, please rest assured, and you will be determined to live up to your mission!"

Seeing Guan Yu so arrogant, Liu Xian couldn't help but feel a little worried. But thinking that the Romans are almost a loser, the little concern in his heart quickly disappeared!

He glanced at the others and said, "The other half of the Han army, except for leaving three thousand men to guard Nicosia, the rest of the troops followed me to support Byzantium. Please ask Princess Nisya to lead the Persian army with me."

Everyone agreed, and Nice's face looked happy.

Before sunset that day, the 25,000 Han troops and 80,000 Hun cavalry led by Guan Yu arrived on the coast on the west side of Nicosia and boarded the large and small ships that had been bypassed from the sea not long ago.

It was not until a long time after the sun set that the army boarded the ship, and then the whole army advanced westward to attack Crete.

At the same time, Liu Xian personally led 22,000 Han troops and 110,000 Persian troops to board the ship on the coast on the north side of Nicosia and head north. After arriving near the southern coast of Asia Minor that night, he turned west.

Liu Xian stood on the deck and looked into the distance. At this time, the bright moon hung between the mountains and seas behind him, and the sea surface was shimmering and silent. There was nothing except the sound of the sea water slapped on the hull. The sea and sky were empty and lonely.

Liu Xian looked at the bright moon in the sky and felt that the moon and artistic conception seemed to be no different from the moon seen and the artistic conception I felt in the Central Plains!

The sound of footsteps came from behind, pulling Liu Xian's thoughts back. Looking back, he saw the Persian princess Nisya walking over.

At this time, the moonlight was just shining on her body, shining with the bride hair on her head. She seemed to be a moon god coming from the moonlight, and she actually exuded a strange charm.

Combined with her snake-like soft waist, slender figure, and a little exaggerated upper body curve, even a guy like Liu Xian who is used to being stunning could not help but be beating.

Liu Xian came to his senses and couldn't help but compare Nisya with Aimu, feeling that Chunlan and Qiuju were good at playing the game between them!

"Your Majesty!..." Nisya walked to Liu Xian and Yingying bowed.

Liu Xian came back to his senses and asked with a smile: "Is the princess so late yet not resting?"

Nisya glanced at Liu Xian, turned her face to look at the sea, raised her hand and stroked her hair and said, "I'm out for a walk, but I didn't expect to meet His Majesty."

Then he looked at Liu Xian and asked curiously: "Your Majesty seems to be thinking about your thoughts?"

Liu Xian smiled and said with a self-deprecating look: "Maybe he is old and misses home all the time!"

When Nisya heard Liu Xian's words, she couldn't help but smile slightly, and then she said with a little depressed mood: "Your Majesty's queen and concubines are rare women in the world! No wonder Your Majesty misses homesickly!..."

When Liu Xian heard her words, Zhao Yanran and the others' faces couldn't help but appear in his mind, and his heart suddenly turned soft and sighed slowly.

When Nisya saw Liu Xian's appearance, she suddenly became silent.

Dadadadadada... The sound of rapid footsteps came. Liu Xian and Nisya turned their heads and looked over together, and Dian Wei, who was majestic and fierce, walked over quickly and presented a book of Fei Ge's letters and said: "Your Majesty, Fei Ge's letters sent by General Ma Chao!"

Dian Wei and Lu Bu were poisoned in Wujun before, and they were in danger. Fortunately, the prescription that Zuo Ci delivered in time was finally saved.

This time when Liu Xian went to Rome, these two powerful generals naturally followed.

Liu Xian took the letter, opened it and looked at it, and his brows frowned tightly.

It turned out that the battle of Byzantine was already quite difficult, and even a brave figure like Ma Chao actually sent a letter of help to Liu Xian.

At this moment, in Byzantium, Ma Chao, who had not slept for many days, looked at the battlefield where the war had just ended with his bloodshot eyes.

Under the reflection of the moonlight, the entire battlefield did not have the quiet temperament of the night, but was full of tragic and bloody everywhere.

Corpse are everywhere, and the remains of various siege equipment are scattered. Many places are still burning. The fire light reflects the blood of the corpse, embellishing the atmosphere here like hell!

Ma Xiu, covered in blood, quickly walked to Ma Chao and whispered: "Brother, in today's battle, our Han army suffered more than 700 casualties, but the number of casualties in the Asian Semi-Sergeant League exceeded 4,000. Their morale is no longer stable, I am worried...

After all, these people are not our Han army, so it is difficult for them to be on the same path as us. Moreover, these people's fighting spirit is difficult to withstand such bloody battles. If they continue to fight like this, will there be problems?"

Ma Chao frowned and said, "Go and call Rao for me!"

Ma Xiu clasped his fists and agreed and walked quickly.

Ma Chao's eyes turned to the camp of the barbarian army outside the city, frowned, and murmured: "No matter what happens, the barbarians can't go further!"

At this moment, Ma Chao was so murderous intent that he was like a tiger crawling on the top of the cliff, looking down at the bold and arbitrary invaders!

...

The next morning, just as the sky was dawn, the sound of war drums of the barbarian army suddenly broke the silence of the morning.

The Han army officers and soldiers who were awakened quickly looked outside the city and suddenly saw the tide of soldiers outside the city, and hundreds of thousands of barbarian soldiers were approaching the city!

The warning gongs set on the city walls sounded loudly.
