Chapter 444 The world is in turmoil
Datang, as an empire that has risen in recent years, is able to dominate the five major human race regions of the Liaozhai world with the other four empires, and naturally has extremely powerful strength.
A hundred years ago, the Tang Dynasty was just an ordinary dynasty like the Ming Dynasty. There were 23 provinces in the whole country (the same provinces as the Ming Dynasty), and their strength was not as good as that of the Ming Dynasty at its peak.
But the emergence of an opportunity changed this pattern.
After the founding ancestor of the Tang Dynasty, the 57th emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Li Ke, who is now revered as Emperor Sejong, successfully broke through the eighth rank and became the second immortal-level master of the Tang Dynasty.
The birth of this celestial being has seriously changed the pattern of the countries surrounding Datang.
This makes Datang have a great advantage over other countries in terms of top combat power, and it can even be said to be crushing strength.
But even if there is one more celestial being, it can't really be that powerful. At most, it can only be said that Datang's foundation is stronger and can maintain the national unity for a longer period of time.
In the case of the order established jointly by all the powerhouses of the eighth rank, no eighth rank angel would dare to act hastily, and personally end up intervening in the battle of the secular dynasty, otherwise, violators will be targeted by all the eighth ranks.
The two Eight Immortals of the Tang Dynasty are powerful, but no matter how powerful they are, can they still fight against the more than 200 eighth-level powerhouses who jointly formulated this set of rules?
If you think about it, you know it's impossible.
Then why can Datang rise?
This also needs to be said that after the birth of the eighth-level powerhouse in the Tang Dynasty, the next changes in the country.
Ever since an eighth-level celestial being appeared in the Great Tang Dynasty, in the land of the next Great Tang Dynasty, I don't know what kind of blessings they got, whether it was the blessing of God, or the accumulation of the Great Tang Dynasty. Yan generation.
In the entire Tang Dynasty, talents who were rarely encountered in the past few decades or decades can now be born in the dozens every year.
And each of them is such a brilliant genius, everyone has their own adventures, and their personal cultivation progresses very quickly, often within a few years they can achieve what others can achieve in more than ten years.
In this situation like adding a cheating device, the overall strength of the Tang Dynasty began to soar.
However, in more than ten years, the national power has surpassed the previous several times, completely surpassing the surrounding empires, and has already been crushed by a single country.
Even these are nothing. Although such a Great Tang Dynasty is powerful, as long as one or two surrounding countries unite, they can contain it, and they will not tolerate the bottomless expansion of the Great Tang Dynasty at all.
What really changed fundamentally belonged to the leader of the sect in the Tang Dynasty, the then Daoist of Taixu Daoist Yuan Tiangang took refuge.
Yuan Tiangang, the master of Taixu Dao, is the patriarch of Taixu Dao. He is a well-known eighth-level celestial being around the Ming Dynasty, and his strength is unfathomable. Even among a group of eighth-rank angels, they all belong to the top and upper reaches.
Moreover, the Taixu Dao led by Yuan Tiangang was the leader of all sects in the Great Tang Dynasty, and even the surrounding sects in the neighboring Great Tang Dynasty were under the indirect control of Taixu Dao.
It is indescribable that such a top-notch powerhouse and such a top-notch influence will have an impact.
Almost instantly, even though the strength of the Great Tang Dynasty has grown to an unimaginable level after more than ten years of growth, it still more than doubles in an instant.
At this moment, relying on the strength of the Tang Dynasty alone, it is already capable of single-handedly defeating four or five ordinary empires.
Although this kind of heads-up is just fighting against the alliance of all the forces of four or five empires alone, it can keep from being destroyed.
But it can also be proved in a disguised form that Datang already has the advantage of slowly encroaching on the surrounding empires while remaining invincible.
Just like the state of Qin in the Warring States period, there is a natural danger in the Hangu Pass, no matter how big the Qin army suffered setbacks and failures in the Guandong. As long as Hangu Pass is in hand, Daqin will never be in danger of destroying the country. No matter how big the loss is, you can recover after a period of recuperation, and the same is true for Datang today.
However, even so, the Tang Dynasty still cautiously did not make a move.
Because the number of heavenly immortals who made the eighth order together at the beginning were too many, far from what the three heavenly immortals of the Great Tang Dynasty could match.
If you act rashly, no matter how many victories the Tang Dynasty can achieve in the early stage.
But as long as those small empires that have not been affected join hands, the power they can form will far exceed the limit that the Tang Dynasty can bear.
At that time, no matter how powerful the Great Tang Dynasty is, it will be difficult to escape the crisis of destruction.
But later, just as the whole Tang Dynasty was constantly thinking and thinking about the way out. The arrival of a piece of news brought an opportunity to the planning of the Tang Dynasty.
Qin, an old country located in the northwest, made a sudden move and mobilized an army of tens of millions to attack the three surrounding empires frantically. Moreover, one empire was wiped out in one fell swoop, and the remaining two also lost nearly half of their territory, and could only linger on.
The appearance of this news suddenly caused a shock in the whole world.
Everyone and all forces are shocked, and they don't understand why the Great Qin Dynasty is so unwise and chooses suicide aggression.
Yes, it is the stupidity of the Great Qin Dynasty.
No matter how powerful Daqin is, it is still just an empire. Can he still overturn the sky and withstand the siege of more than a dozen or 20 countries around him at the same time?
Just when the surrounding countries began to be shocked, angry, and feel the crisis, more than a dozen countries connected with each other and planned to form a coalition to attack Daqin together.
An even more shocking news reached their ears.
Following the Great Qin, the Great Han in the north also sent tens of millions of troops to attack the four surrounding empires.
However, the results achieved this time were not as brilliant as the Great Qin Dynasty, directly destroying an empire.
Because of the example of the Great Qin Dynasty, the empires around the Great Han had long been prepared and vigilant against the powerful country of the Great Han, so as soon as the Great Han made a move, the armies of these countries had already begun to resist and connected with each other.
After all, these advance preparations played some role. Although the army of the Han Dynasty was sharp, they only captured a large area of territory in each country, and did not really destroy an empire.
But even so, the power and unscrupulousness of the Han Dynasty still shocked the world.
And what was even more shocking was yet to come.
After the Han Dynasty, the Sui Dynasty took action in the southwest region, wantonly attacking the surrounding countries. Then Datang followed closely and moved towards several countries around him. Then the Great Zhou Dynasty, located in the center of the world, also began the journey of annexation.
The whole world is in complete chaos.
