Li Hao did not tell the news to the imperial court, because he did not know how to explain it to them, after all, the telephone was a little too amazing for them, and they could only wait for two more days, which was enough time for the messenger to take the train from Qinghai to Chang'an.

Li Hao, who had been silent for three years, suddenly came to Chang'an, appeared in Tiance Mansion, and prepared an army in Tiance Mansion.

The eldest grandson Wuji was taken aback when he got the news, Li Hao's sudden action surprised him, he was wondering, could it be that Li Hao was preparing to rebel, so he hurriedly met Li Zhi and asked Li Zhi to take action immediately to prevent Li Hao from rebelling.

Li Zhi naturally didn't believe that Li Hao would rebel, and Li Hao didn't do anything out of the ordinary, he just asked the army of Tiance Mansion to suspend training, prepare food, grass and ordnance, etc., without fish charms and approvals, he couldn't mobilize the army.

Sure enough, as Li Hao expected, Qinghai Wei's messenger arrived in Chang'an two days and sent Fan Lihua's expedited war report to the Ministry of War, and the newly appointed Shangshu Li Daozong of the Ministry of War immediately sent the war report to Taiji Palace and presented it to Li Zhi.

Li Zhi was shocked after reading the battle report, Tubo actually sent 200,000 troops to invade Qinghai, this is a big war, he hurriedly convened the ministers, and discussed in the Ganlu Palace.

The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, Li Hao immediately asked him to personally bring the elite soldiers of Tiance Mansion to help Qinghai, the eldest grandson Wuji tried his best to oppose it, anyway, he wanted to prevent Li Hao from making meritorious contributions, besides, he thought that Qinghai had Fan Lihua in charge, and if there was no big problem, it would be enough to send Qin Huaiyu or Cheng Chuliang to deal with it.

At this time, the military department has an urgent war report arrived, this is the battle report sent by the Anxi Protectorate, the Abbasids sent 200,000 troops, stormed the Anxi Protectorate, and captured the four towns of Anxi in one day, and now the Anxi Protector Su Dingfang has taken 30,000 troops to retreat to Sanmi Mountain Tingzhou (formerly the Western Turkic Royal Court).

The ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were stunned, it was obvious that the Tubo and Abbasids were prepared, and the two sides joined forces to fight the Tang Dynasty, and from the perspective of their strength, they were preparing to defeat the Tang Dynasty in one fell swoop, what is the concept of 400,000 troops, all the troops of the Tang Dynasty add up to only five or six hundred thousand, and the government soldiers are scattered in various states and counties of the Tang Dynasty, how to mobilize them for a while, everyone panicked at this time, including the eldest grandson Wuji.

Li Zhi has been the emperor for so many years, and his concentration is really better than before, after hearing the news, he just frowned, and then raised his hand to let everyone quiet, looked at Li Hao, and asked: "Taifu Li, now that Tubo and Abbasid have sent 200,000 troops to attack Qinghai and Anxi respectively, do you have a way to break the enemy?" ”

Li Hao thought for a while, and said: "Back to Your Majesty, Fan Lihua and Qinghai Weizu can deal with the 200,000 Tubo army, but now General Fan is trapped in Fuqi City and can't get in touch with the army, so she needs reinforcements to help her, as for the 200,000 army of the Abbasids, hum, it's just a pearl of rice, and dare to compete with the sun and the moon, if the Ce Mansion has increased its troops to 40,000 today, the ministers please lead the 40,000 troops of the Tiance Mansion to help Qinghai first, and then to aid Anxi, and in less than two months, you can defeat the enemy army!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the ministers were shocked, the Abbasid had dispatched an army of 200,000, and he only brought 40,000 troops, what use could he have.

Li Hao glanced at them with the eyes of looking at the buns, his eyes were full of contempt, they didn't understand how powerful the army of Tiance Mansion was, it was only enough to deal with the 200,000 Abbasid army, and the army of 40,000 Tiance Mansion was too much.

This time the eldest grandson Wuji didn't dare to object, the 400,000 army was not a joke, if he was still playing tricks with Li Hao at this time, he was afraid that he would be beaten to Chang'an by the enemy if he was not careful.

Li Zhi saw that no one objected, so he named Li Hao as the general manager of the Tianshan Road march, led the army of 40,000 Tiance Mansions, and rushed to the aid of Qinghai Metropolitan Protectorate and Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate.

Li Hao had already made preparations, and immediately went to the military headquarters to wait for the holy decree fish talisman and official documents, and all the formalities were completed, and he went to the railway station to lead the army to the Tiance Mansion.

More than a dozen trains at the railway station were all parked on the tracks, more than ten miles away, and it took a lot of time for the 40,000 army to board the train, and by the time everyone got on the train, it was already dark, and the train set off overnight.

The attack on the Tang Dynasty was of great importance, and the Tubo army was naturally commanded by Garqinling himself, and he was not worried about others now.

He has led the army to surround the city of Fu Qi for two days, and has attacked the city three times, although there are only 5,000 defenders in the city, but he still failed to take it, after all, the general who defended the city is Fan Lihua.

Early in the morning of the third day, the sun had just risen above the horizon, and suddenly a scout Pegasus galloped into the camp of the Tubo army, and hurriedly announced: "Da Lun, no, Da Lun, Da Tang's reinforcements are coming!" ”

Garqinling was taken aback when he heard this, and immediately glared and exclaimed: "How is it possible, we have just acted, how can the reinforcements of the Tang Dynasty arrive so quickly?" Did they fly? ”

The scout said, "No, it came in that strangely long, long car, and now the army has dismounted, just a dozen miles to the east, and is coming this way!" ”

Garqinling frowned and asked, "How many people?" ”

The scout replied: "There are about 40,000 of them, all of them are the most elite cavalry of the Tang Dynasty, about the same as Qinghai Wei!" ”

"Probe!" Garqinling's face was solemn, and then he shouted loudly, "Pass my military order, the whole army is on alert, and the Tang army reinforcements will be annihilated first!" ”

Li Hao rode a horse with the cavalry of Tiance Mansion all the way to Fu Qi City, came very quickly, since there was a railway, they no longer think about the problem of grain and grass, the train can deliver the grain and grass within two days, without the grain and grass baggage, the marching speed is naturally fast.

The distance of more than ten miles was nothing to the cavalry, and it was soon there, and Fan Lihua at the head of the city was immediately excited when she saw the arrival of reinforcements.

When Garqinling saw the arrival of 40,000 Tang troops, he originally wanted to take the initiative to go up to meet the battle, but when he saw the Tang army lineup from a distance, his heart trembled, he was a veteran of the war, and he had been deterred by the momentum of the Tang army before the war, he knew that he could not fight, so he quickly ordered the withdrawal of the army, withdrew to the side of Qinghai Wei Castle, and joined his army.

The Tubo army withdrew before the battle, the Tang army suddenly lifted its morale, did not wait for Li Hao to enter the city, Fan Lihua had already ridden out of the city alone, came to Li Hao's army in front of the formation, after meeting, did not stop, Fan Lihua shouted urgently: "Send me to Qinghai Wei!" ”

"No problem!" Li Hao didn't say a word, and used an army of 40,000 to escort Fan Lihua to Qinghai Wei.

When I arrived at the periphery of Qinghai Wei, I saw that Qinghai Wei Castle was surrounded by 200,000 troops, and Peng Hai, the general of Qinghai Wei, did not take the initiative to attack, because it was too risky.

And the Tubo army did not dare to take the initiative to attack the city, because they knew that Qinghai Wei was very fierce, and a hard attack would definitely cause heavy casualties, and now that Li Hao's reinforcements arrived, they immediately fell into passivity, Garqinling hesitated, what should I do, should I repel the reinforcements first or stand still? If he took the initiative to attack the reinforcements, he was afraid that the Tang army in the city would come out and attack them from behind, and he would be in a dilemma for a while.

Looking at the Qinghai Acropolis in the distance, Fan Lihua looked at Li Hao and asked, "Is there a way to send me into the city?" ”

"Absolutely." Li Hao snapped his fingers with a smile, and a carriage was immediately dragged out.

Fan Lihua stepped forward and lifted the curtain, looked inside, and immediately laughed: "Hot air balloon." ”

Li Hao immediately took Fan Lihua to find a downwind direction, made a hot air balloon, and then let Fan Lihua fly up in a hot air balloon, seeing the hot air balloon flying towards the Qinghai Acropolis, the Tubo people exclaimed, Garqinling ordered someone to shoot it down with a bow and arrow, Fan Lihua hid in the hanging basket, the arrow could not shoot her, even if the hot air balloon was shot through by the arrow, it was fine, such a small hole, the hot air balloon had little impact.

Fan Lihua flew over the head of the Tubo army in such an open and honest manner and entered the Qinghai Acropolis, and Peng Hai hurried to greet him personally.

As soon as Fan Lihua landed, she said loudly: "Get ready, go out of the city with this general to meet the enemy!" ”

Peng Hai was suddenly excited when he heard this, and he was finally going to take the initiative, and he had been holding back for a long time.

The city gate in the east slowly opened, Fan Lihua led the army out of the city, and went straight to the Tubo army, Li Hao saw this and also led the 40,000 Tiance Mansion army to kill the Tubo army, the real front and back attack, although their combined strength was only a little more than 100,000, however, they had full confidence that they could defeat the Tubo army.

Garqinling didn't expect Fan Lihua to be so fierce, just entered the city and led the troops to take the initiative to attack, this temper is too hot, in the face of the Tang army's front and back attack, Garqinling is still a little scared, when even began to adjust the army, to meet the Tang army, at the same time his Chinese army retreated to the southwest, in case of being surrounded by the Tang army.

The army clashed, shouting and killing all day, Tiance Mansion and Qinghai Wei are the two most elite armies of the Tang Dynasty, and now they are actually together, not to mention the 200,000 army, even if it is 400,000 troops, they don't put it in their eyes, the war is morale, and then look at the equipment, and the Tang Army's equipment is the most sophisticated in the world, and the morale of the Tang Army is also unparalleled in the world, because only the army that often wins battles will swell, will be proud, and the commander can not be inflated and proud, because it is easy to fall into the enemy's ambush and treachery, But the soldiers must be inflated and proud, so as to ignite the morale of the whole army to the highest, so Li Hao's point of view is that the arrogant commander will lose, and the arrogant soldier will win.

The armies of Qinghai Wei and Tiance Mansion are all cavalry, and they are all heavy armored cavalry, covered with armor, iron shield in the left hand, and Da Mo knife in the right hand, such heavy equipment adds up to almost the same as the weight of a person, and ordinary people can't control such heavy equipment at all, but the soldiers of Qinghai Wei and Tiance Mansion can, because they are soldiers trained by Li Hao.

A charge, the Tubo army suddenly turned on their backs, the formation was rushed to pieces, the Tang army rushed into the enemy formation and slashed with a knife, as if entering a no-man's land, it was like an adult fighting with a group of six or seven-year-old children, the feeling of completely bullying, the whole body was covered with armor, plus the iron shield guard, even in the rain of arrows, they could deal with it freely, only a few unlucky ones would be arrows through the gaps in the armor, wounded or killed, but this probability is too low.

Only a few minutes, Garqinling was already stunned, he had always heard that the Tang army was well-equipped, but it was so good that it was too unusual, four or five Tubo soldiers stared at a Tang army and cut it, and they were all killed, and the Tang army was just cut by a knife, there was no big problem at all, how to fight, only a moment of work, more than 30,000 Tubo troops were slaughtered.

Garqinling hurriedly ordered to retreat, how could Li Hao and Fan Lihua let him go so easily, with the army all the way to pursue, all the way to chase and kill, ambush the corpse for hundreds of miles, until the evening, Li Hao and Fan Lihua have stopped their horses, the Tang Dynasty just arrived, the same day to repel the Tubo army, solve the battle, it is really a soldier and a god speed, which is unheard of in the history of the Tang Dynasty.
