Li De rode his horse and chased after a Tibetan cavalryman in front.

He could even see the somewhat hideous and frightened face of the Tibetan soldier when he turned to shoot an arrow at him.

The feather arrow roared, Li De just lowered his head slightly, and turned around with an arrow in such a high-speed movement, if he could still shoot himself, then there was a ghost, unless it was an archer like Chen Changping, but such a super archer, how could it be so easy to encounter?

The opponent turned around and shot this arrow, but the speed was slightly affected, Li De took the opportunity to close the distance, exhaled, and the spear in his hand was already fiercely pierced into the back of the cavalryman.

He tore off his leather armor with ease, picked the man up from his horse, threw him to the ground, and then stepped forward on his horse, and with one hand he pulled the reins of his horse, and the two front hooves of the horse leaped high and fell heavily.

Porphyrine snort, like stepping on a rotten watermelon.

Squinting his eyes, looking at the Tubo man who had escaped and only had a vague back, Li De's eyes were murderous in the slightest.

This was the seventh battle after he arrived in Lingzhou.

Liu Xiaocian rode his horse to his side, bent down and grabbed the reins of Li De's war horse, and said, "I can't catch up, let's go back!" ”

Li De nodded sullenly, and let Liu Xiaocian lead his horse in the direction he was going.

Liu Xiaocian knew that Li De was in an extremely bad mood.

To be precise, after defeating Songlang Tsering and completely taking Xiazhou City, his whole person seemed to have a different appearance, even when he went to Yinzhou to besiege Raza later, he was just forced to laugh.

Liu Xiaocian knew what it was for.

The tragic situation in Xiazhou City gave Li De too much stimulation.

In Li De's own words, since he led his troops to fight, he has been doing the work of saving people, killing bandits and soldiers, and no matter how many of these people he kills, he will not have a little psychological burden. But this time was different, because of his decision, the innocent people in Xiazhou City were killed and injured very seriously.

These people would have been able to die without having to die.

"Madame said that Mr. Gongsun Changming praised your pre-war decision, and thought that your future was limitless!" Liu Xiaocian said: "So the post-war report written by Xue Jian, Mr. Gongsun re-polished it, and Mrs. asked me to tell you, don't worry about someone looking for you on the side of Yushitai." Although the Imperial History Terrace was divided into several factions, the mainstream was still in the hands of Yang Kai. ”

Li De shook his head: "I'm not afraid that someone will find me trouble, but I can't get over it in my heart." Xiao Cicada, I am different from you, when I see those people, I feel like I saw my family when I was a child, after commanding the army to fight, I have always told myself to be an upright person, to be a good person. But this time, I went to be a demon. ”

"You're thinking too much." Liu Xiaocian shook his head and said, "Isn't this for the great cause of Xiangye?" Look at Hedong, how much loss did you pay this time? If you don't seize this opportunity this time, An Sui will still be in the hands of the Du family, and maybe in the future, the Hedong incident will repeat itself, and more people will die. This time, it was just that the city of Xiazhou was quite damaged, and the rest of the city was still intact. And An Sui is really in the hands of Xiangye, and it won't take a few years for it to regain its vitality, which can also be regarded as a blessing in disguise. Crying all the way, how can it be like a family crying? How can a city cry when it is like crying in one place? ”

"Li'er is this Li'er, but I can't get over this hurdle in my heart." Li De looked up to the sky and sighed.

"Then it's better to kill more Tibetans. If it weren't for them, so much wouldn't have happened! Liu Xiaocian smiled and said. After we came to Lingzhou, we have clashed with the Tubo people seven times along the way, and Xue Jian's side is probably not less, at least thousands of Tubo elites have been destroyed, right? ”

As they spoke, in the eyes of the two, a large group of people had already appeared, which were Li De's subordinates and the more than 1,000 people who were rescued by them.

Li De's 15,000 cavalry were the first to arrive in Lingzhou. According to Li Ze's military order, their main purpose is to deter, monitor the movements of the Tubo army in Lingzhou, and do not start the battle lightly until the main force arrives.

But when Li De arrived, he found that the Tibetans were already preparing for a great retreat. If it's just a retreat, the problem is that they are plundering Lingzhou. Of course, if it was just to rob some property, it would not make Li De violate Li Ze's military orders, but the main thing that the Tubo people robbed was people. It is the people of Lingzhou.

And Li De, who was in the midst of extreme contradiction and pain, gave the order to attack the Tubo people almost without thinking.

The Tibetans did not expect that Raza would be destroyed so quickly, nor did they expect that Li De's cavalry would come so quickly. Therefore, their large army is distributed all over Lingzhou to plunder the people.

For Tocharo, this journey is a typical defeat, before leaving, he must let his subordinates have something to gain, he also needs his subordinates to continue to be loyal to him, captive a large number of Central Plains people back, and turn them into slaves of the Tubo, which will be an effective compensation for his subordinates.

The people of the Tang Dynasty were the best slaves, which was the general knowledge of the Tibetan aristocracy.

These people can farm, weave, breed, and many are proficient in all kinds of crafts, blacksmiths, stonemasons, carpenters and other craftsmen, which is exactly what they need. Snatching such a large number of slaves will go, which is more exciting than gold and silver treasures.

Li De divided his subordinates into several roads, all over the world and the Tibetan people who plundered the people, so far, they have rescued tens of thousands of people, his temporary camp is full, and in order to solve the problem of eating these people, Li De is also very troubled, can only frequently report to Yinzhou Li Ze, hoping that the large army will speed up the pace and quickly arrive in Lingzhou.

Lingzhou City, on the high city wall, Tocharo looked at the vast land outside the city melancholy, although the country is good, but he has no chance with him. If he succeeds this time, he will be able to use Ansui as a fortress to advance, and then plot the entire northern land of the Tang Dynasty, so that he can build a huge Tubo Empire, and his merits will far surpass the greatest king in the history of Tubo, Songtsen Gampo, and become the first person in history.

Unfortunately, he failed.

Failing him, not only lost the opportunity to make a mark in the annals of history, but also lost the opportunity to take his family to the next level. When he returns to China, he will be entangled by endless internal strife, and it is already good to be able to recreate a stable situation for the family in his lifetime.

I'm already sixty years old, and I don't have a holiday!

And the opponent who is about to arrive in Lingzhou, Datang Li Ze, is only in his twenties.

Thinking about the age of his opponent and the skill he showed this time, Tocharo couldn't help but shudder.

He was really scared.

He is alive and is not afraid of Li Ze, and Li Ze will definitely not have the heart to plot against Tibet in the future, he must first devote himself to the unification of the Tang Dynasty. But what about later? If Li Ze unified the Tang Dynasty, it would take ten to twenty years to defeat all his opponents, and at that time, he was only in his forties, which was the most mature golden age of a man, and it was the time when he was in the prime of life and energetic and needed to vent.

At that time, what if Li Ze turned his horse's head and looked at Tubo?

I definitely won't live to that time.

Who in Tibet could be his opponent?

At least, among his own descendants, Tocharian could not find such a man.

After I go back, I have to work hard to cultivate a successor, not to mention being able to compete with Li Ze, at least I have to keep my current family business!

"Anyway, just now there was another military report, Li De's cavalry fought with us again, and we lost more than 100 cavalry." Basan walked over to Tocharo's side and whispered. "The location of Li De's camp has been discovered, and General Bacha hopes that you can give an order for them to gather forces and destroy this arrogant guy."

Tocharo glanced back at Basan, his most powerful subordinate, who was also emaciated during this time, and after returning to China and successfully activating the Tianhuo plan, he rushed to Lingzhou non-stop to assist him in handling the retreat.

"Li De has fifteen thousand cavalry, right? Matsuro Shohito died at his hands? Tocharian asked.

"Yes. So Bacha and they think this is a good opportunity, Li Ze's main force did not arrive, we have time to gather and annihilate this army first, Li De, but Li Ze's henchmen, if we can kill him, we can finally win back a game this time. ”

Tocharian was silent for a moment, but shook his head: "What can a victory change?" In this big battle, we lost after all, and such a fighting spirit is completely unnecessary. Li De's 15,000 cavalry, well-equipped, extremely high tactical literacy, Basang, how much price do we need to pay if we want to completely take them down? What kind of battle loss ratio will we get? One-to-one, or one-to-two? ”

Bassan was silent.

"Li Ze folded Li De's part, which had no effect on him. But what if we fold the elite troops in our hands into tens of thousands and return to China? Tocharian said.

"The big argument is reasonable, the mountains do not turn around, and there will be a day when we recover our losses!" Basang Road.

"We don't have this opportunity anymore, look forward to our children and grandchildren!" Tocharo said: "Basang, you have to work hard to run to Chang'an, tell Jingxiang, next, Li Ze will definitely do something to them, and we will try our best to provide them with some help, as long as we can do it." Hopefully they can block Li Ze. ”

"Yes."

"I really hope they can fight for ten years, twenty years, or even keep fighting like this!" Tocharo let out a breath: "If Li Ze is really allowed to dominate the world, there will be a powerful and incomparable empire around us, and our life will not be easy." ”
