Chapter 1270: The Battle of Tubo Ends

Mongol Empire, Hala and Lin.

Receiving a letter of inquiry from the Honglu Temple in Great Xia, Genghis Khan was shocked for the first time.

"Rebel, rebel!"

Obviously, this incident was done by Ogedai without authorization, and the purpose was to sabotage the peace talks between Mongolia and Bactria in order to stabilize its position. Say anything, Wokotai is not willing to live under the fourth brother's thunder.

As the hero of history, this is the pride of Ogedei.

And in history, Tuo Lei was poisoned and died because of the suspicion of Wokotai. Who can guarantee that after Tuo Lei takes the position, he will not use the way of others to govern others.

Another point, as a generation of male lords who grew up in the prairie, Ogedai was very unwilling to petition to submit to Great Xia, which was a huge humiliation for Ogedai and could not bear it.

Not alone, many Mongols have similar plots, especially the generals in the army.

Leaning slightly, Yelu Chucai, the prime minister of the Mongol Empire, came with an edict.

"Aiqing thinks, how to deal with this matter?" Genghis Khan asked.

Yelu Chucai looked very embarrassed, and said hesitantly: "Looking at the tone of Great Xia, the so-called explanation should at least send the third prince to Jingshi and accept the disposal of Great Xia." ”

Genghis Khan's face suddenly became ugly, he actually knew what kind of explanation Daxia wanted, but he still felt a sense of shame for Yelu Chucai to say it so clearly.

"It's not going to work." Genghis Khan shook his head.

The prestige of Ögedei in the Mongol Empire is second only to Genghis Khan, and if the Mongol Empire really handed over Ögedei, the Mongols will not be able to raise their heads for the rest of their lives.

"yes." Yelu Chucai also nodded, and added: "Weichen heard that many generals in the army are also very uninterested in Great Xia, and if the third prince is really arrested, there may be chaos in the army. ”

"That's hard." Genghis Khan frowned, and couldn't help but curse again: "This rebel!" ”

Ogedei's actions pushed Genghis Khan into a very passive situation, and even basically pushed the Mongol Empire to the edge of the precipice, with peace on one side and hell on the other.

"Aiqing has a good plan?" Genghis Khan asked hopefully.

When Yelu Chucai saw it, he half-knelt on the ground and said ashamedly: "Weichen should die, he can't worry about the Great Khan!" "In the face of absolute strength, sometimes there is really nothing to be done, and it has nothing to do with intelligence.

Genghis Khan asked: "Can you make Great Xia accommodating and take a border general as a scapegoat?" ”

The Mongol Empire guarded the Ögedai Khanate, in addition to Ögedai himself, there were also two generals, Borshu and Chilaowen. To be more specific, it was Borshu, one of the four masters, who guarded the southern border of the Ögedai Khanate.

Borshu is not only the first of the four masters, but also Genghis Khan's playmate since childhood, which is extraordinary.

Looking at Genghis Khan's meaning, he was actually ready to sacrifice Borshu in exchange for the forgiveness of Great Xia, in order to survive this catastrophe. Thinking of this, Yelu Chucai only felt a cold sweat break out in his palms.

"You can give it a try." Yelu Chucai forcibly calmed down.

Genghis Khan nodded in satisfaction, "Then go ahead and do it!" ”

"No!"

Yelu Chucai turned to leave, his steps a little vain.

Genghis Khan looked at Yelu Chucai's back, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes.

…………

The so-called confession of the Mongol Empire could not satisfy Ouyang Shuo at all.

Wang Jian and his son are not only the commanders of the right-wing army, but also Ouyang Shuo's very important generals, who are ready to entrust them with important tasks after the end of the Battle of Tubo, and they cannot tolerate any mistakes.

If Wang Ben was killed because of Ogedai's selfishness, and Wang Jian was separated from the empire, how could he kill a Borshu and give an account of the past?

The Mongols are rare, and Ouyang Shuo is not rare.

Ouyang Shuo said leisurely: "Let's do cold treatment for the time being, remember, don't show hostility." ”

"Understood!"

Zhang Yi, who was in charge of passing the word, listened to it and thought thoughtfully.

…………

Although very unexpected, tragedy struck.

On October 27, without waiting for the right-wing army led by Wang Qian, the remnants of Wang Ben's troops were surrounded and intercepted by the Ashoka army, but they were not spared after all, and the whole army was killed.

Wang Ben killed himself on the spot and vowed not to be taken prisoner.

Wang Qian, who got the news, was so grief-stricken that he led his troops to attack the Ashoka army, setting off a monstrous slaughter in the hinterland of Tibet.

At that time, the Qin army had the style of slaughtering the Six Kingdoms in history.

When Li Jing got the news, he sighed and ordered the left-wing army to do a good job of responding to the right-wing army and not let Wang Jian fall into danger. Otherwise, he would not have been able to give an account to the king.

Under the frantic attack of the armies on the left and right flanks of Great Xia, the hinterland of Tibet was declared lost.

That's not all, Wang Jian led his troops to fight until the end of the western border of Tubo, and after collecting Wang Ben's body, he cut off the retreat of the Ashoka army.

If it weren't for the fact that there was still a trace of sanity, Wang Jian would have led his troops to attack the ancient castle of Kantam Pasha and avenge Wang Ben.

On November 3, under the siege of the Central Route Army and the Central Protector Army regardless of their sacrifices, the city of Logos also fell. At this point, the entire Tibetan battlefield has been controlled by Great Xia.

The Ashoka army, which was cornered, had no choice but to surrender.

According to post-war statistics, in the two-and-a-half-month fierce battle, the Ashoka Dynasty invested two million forbidden troops, and the remaining 75 people surrendered except for the war dead. In addition, there were 250,000 Tibetan troops.

At this point, the Ashoka Dynasty has been sharply reduced from 4.5 million troops at its peak to 2.5 million, and its strength has been greatly damaged.

After getting the news, the two giants of the Peacock King and the Gupta King couldn't close their mouths happily.

Almost at the same time as the end of the Battle of Tibet, the Mauryan Dynasty and the Gupta Dynasty, which had been lurking in the shadows, launched an attack on the Ashoka Dynasty at the same time.

Tianzhu District ushered in the largest melee in history.

After this battle, the pattern of Tianzhu District will usher in a new reshuffle.

Although the Battle of Tibet was won, Bactria also paid a heavy price, and only 1.3 million of the more than 200,000 troops who went out to fight survived in the end, and more than 700,000 were killed.

Among them, the right-wing army suffered the greatest casualties, and in the end, less than 250,000 remained of the 500,000-strong army, and nearly half of the casualties were left. Wang Qian, who is crazy, is really scary.

The right-wing army was killed, except for 70,000 Wang Ben's troops were all killed, and the biggest casualty appeared when Wang Jian led his troops to the west.

The Tibetan battlefield is a veritable meat grinder.

Fortunately, the surviving 1.3 million army, after the baptism of this battle, finally grew up, and it was left in other dynasties, and it can already be used as an elite.

However, Great Xia is at the time of the largest disarmament, and it cannot accommodate this 1.3 million army.

How to place them? Soon there was a certainty.

At the moment when he learned that Wang Ben had died, Wang Jian couldn't suppress the grief in his heart anymore, and played directly to Ouyang Shuo, saying earnestly: "The last general has nothing else to ask for, but to be able to lead his troops to conquer the Ogedai Khanate." If His Majesty can agree to the general's request, the general will be loyal to the empire to the death. ”

Wang Jian has already said this, what else can Ouyang Shuo say?

Genghis Khan's perfunctory behavior made Ouyang Shuo very dissatisfied, and he had the idea of taking the opportunity to clean up the Mongol Empire, and when Wang Ben died in battle, he had already made up his mind.

Wang Jian played at this time, isn't it Ouyang Shuo's opportunity to buy people's hearts? It is worth more than anything to make a god general like Wang Jian die for the empire.

Ouyang Shuo almost didn't hesitate and agreed to Wang Qian's battle plan.
