"Ashina, how do you feel when you stand at the highest point in Xizhou City?" King Agalimin said softly.

"Uncle Wang, there is a feeling of sitting on the whole country." Ashina ignored the pain of the wind and sand blowing on the delicate little face, and sighed with emotion.

"My Majesty, you should feel honored that in your hands, the territory of my Tubo Kingdom has doubled for the first time, and the entire Western Regions has been in the hands of my royal court. And that's just the beginning. ”

King Ming, who had been looking to the east, exuded a warlike fanaticism in his eyes, and he did not have the Buddha's indisputable heart at all.

"Uncle Wang, and the 20,000 Anxi soldiers who are missing?" Ashina hesitated.

"It's okay!" King Agaliming waved his hand, "I have always implemented the strategy of fighting to nourish the war when I go out on the expedition of the Tibetan Iron Cavalry, I will set up 10,000 horses to defend in Xizhou City, and there are Senior Brother Nadero and 20,000 Red Armor troops to protect the royal court, Your Majesty can sit back and relax." This crusade will be handed over to this king and General Ling. ”

Ashina's small fist shrunk in his sleeve tightened again, and he was silent for a long time before he said, "Then Ah Shi is waiting for Uncle Wang's good news in the royal court." ”

To the north of Xizhou City, the terrain was undulating, Xue Li and Li Tiantu walked slowly in the reed-covered river valley with more than 10,000 Anxi soldiers, and Qin Lan rode behind with 5,000 Mo swords to guard.

The valley is very difficult to walk, but it is also easier to hide.

"Brother Li really impressed Xue Li!" From being rescued from Liangzhou by Li Tiantu to the Western Regions, Xue Li has seen and heard enough about Li Tiantu.

Li Tiantu was a little embarrassed, and said with a faint smile: "Brother Xue, it's just the courage of the horseman, if you really let Tiantu command the army, I can send all the more than 20,000 brothers into the enemy's encirclement." ”

Xue Li glanced at Li Tiantu and chuckled, "I only know that you just brought the brothers out of the encirclement of 300,000 enemies. ”

"I'm envious of you having the Black Rider!" Xue Li looked at Yu Baiyu who was leading the way in front of him.

Li Tiantu followed Xue Li's gaze, the young black knight will test the virtual and the real with a silver spear, and the snow eagle on his shoulder is handsome, which is really pleasing to the eye.

Well? Why did he suddenly become interested in a man, Li Tiantu was embarrassed, and said with a smile: "Bai Yu grew up near Xizhou City since he was a child, and he is most familiar with this area. ”

"Hmm. Although we have lost the time in this battle, the location and people are still there, and we will definitely come back. I have sent fifty scouts to keep a close eye on the movements of the Tibetans. Xue Li said slowly.

"The Tibetans are going to the east!" Li Tiantu suddenly said, this time the Tibetan king Ashina and the king of Agaliming personally went on the expedition, which seemed to release a signal.

Xue Rang frowned, and muttered: "Tubo is sparsely populated, and taking the entire Western Regions is already the limit, although the king is young, but Lingyou is a handsome talent that has not been met for thousands of years, how can he not see this?" ”

Li Tiantu said in his heart, you haven't seen Ashina with your own eyes, it's true that you are young, but in time, you will definitely be a generation of Ming Jun.

"Handsome, handsome can only be fully presented on the battlefield, and the value of Lingyou is on the battlefield. I do think that even if he does not approve of the Tibetan Crusade, he will not clearly oppose it. Brother Xue, what do you think of King Agaliming? ”

"King Ming is a member of Buddhism, and this time he participated in the battle of Xizhou, even if the monks can't be merciful, they shouldn't put the people of the two countries in fire and water." Xue Li's understanding of King Ming was only superficial.

Li Tiantu sighed lightly, "I hope my guess is wrong this time." ”

Xue Rang only analyzed the situation from the perspective of a soldier, but ignored the most important thing.

King Ming becomes a Buddha!

Li Tiantu has always wondered if he can become a Buddha with just a Buddha bone relic, at most half a Buddha. Outside the city, the huge ceremony of sacrificing to the sky has always clearly appeared in his mind, King Ming got the Buddha bone relics, according to common sense, he should make a lot of money, why do you want to make it known to the world, and the hundreds of thousands of people near the square that day, if they all came spontaneously, he really didn't believe it, what did King Ming care about?

Person? Buddhism is about the power of faith, could it be that King Ming lacks these? Is he going to preach Buddha through a war?

Li Tiantu himself was taken aback by himself.

Or perhaps, what Tubo wants is just a war deep into the hinterland of the Central Plains, and after entering the Beijing Division, the lightning retreats, and what really wants to shake the hearts of the people of the Celestial Empire.

"What's wrong?" Xue Rang saw that Li Tiantu's face was uncertain, and asked with concern.

"It's fine." Li Tiantu shook his head, how could he be like a prophet, thinking about some things that he didn't have.

It took two days, marched 200 miles, and 20,000 Anxi soldiers were stationed at the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains to rest.

A few more days passed, and the scouts sent out came with the latest news.

The Tibetans left 10,000 men to defend the city in Xizhou.

King Ashina returned to Dadu under the escort of 20,000 royal court red armor troops.

King Agaliming and Lingyou led 270,000 Tibetan iron horsemen to approach the Dafeichuan River, where the Celestial Empire intersected with Tibet.

Xue Li, who was sitting in the tent, listened to the report of the scouts, and suddenly got up and said in surprise: "Are you crazy?" ”

Obviously, King Ming and Lingyou were going to join up with the 100,000 horses of Fannara in Dafeichuan, and then raise 400,000 troops to conquer the Celestial Empire.

"They weren't crazy, they chose at the right time. The national strength of the Celestial Empire is empty, and there is a rebellion in the Heavenly Demon Sect, since the Ming King became a Buddha, the suppression of Tubo by the six gates of Buddhism and Taoism in the Central Plains has become history. ”

Li Tiantu smiled bitterly, the development of the situation was moving towards the side he predicted.

"Brother Li, what do you think next?"

Xue Li looked forward to it, but he didn't write his loyalty to the country on his face.

"Big brother, I don't know the art of war, now you are the protector of Anxi, you are in charge." There is a generation of famous generals Xue Li, and Li Tiantu is lazy to think about what to do next with these 20,000 children.

Xue Li's eyes lit up, he didn't expect Li Tiantu to be so selfless, and suddenly said a little greedily: "The Xuantie Black Horse is also under my command?" ”

Li Tiantu did not give up power generously this time, and said with a smile: "Private property, private property." ”

This is the dowry left by Yun'er, how can it be spelled out in his hands?

Xue Li never thought that Li Tiantu could really agree, after all, it was enough to have 20,000 elite Anxi veterans.

"Next," Xue Li took a deep breath, "I am going to gather a batch of war horses, arm all 20,000 Anxi soldiers into light cavalry, run thousands of miles to attack the big tent of the Tubo king's court, capture and kill the Tubo king, and use his own way to govern his people, forcing the 400,000 iron cavalry of Tubo Dafeichuan to retreat." ”

Crazy, completely insane! Li Tiantu grinned and said: "Let's not say that the combat strength of the 20,000 red armor troops in the royal court is only higher than that of my Anxi soldiers, and there are still 20,000 garrisons in the cities of Tubo Daluo, want to capture the king?" It's hard. ”

"How do you know if you don't try? Isn't there still your 1,000 black horsemen? Brother Li, don't back down at the critical moment of serving the country! "Xue Li committed the pedantic spirit of a scholar, and he knew how to reason.
