The next day, Li Jing summoned all the generals to discuss how to defeat Tubo and drive Tubo back to the plateau completely.

"Regent, please give me 50,000 cavalry, I will personally cut off the head of the Qin Tomb for the regent and present it to the regent!"

Badu stood up and knelt down on one knee.

"Regent, on Qinling is a fierce general with great achievements in Tubo, and is also the prime minister of Tubo, good at governing the army and the people, under his governance, Tubo is extremely united, and on Qinling is also good at conquest, if you rashly march, you will only follow in the footsteps of General Xue!"

Blacktooth Changzhi stood up and saluted.

As an old opponent, Hei Zhi Chang has the most right to speak, if you want to say that everyone here, who knows the most about the Qin Ling, it is none other than Hei Zhi Changzhi!

"Chang Zhi's statement is reasonable, now our army's morale is flourishing, and it is not without the strength of a battle, although the Qinling cannot be underestimated, but we don't have to be afraid of it!"

"At present, we must first find the movement of the Tubo army, and then concentrate our forces to eat the Tubo army little by little, immediately send out all the scouts, and find the movement of the Tubo army as soon as possible.

Li Jing was still angry that the Tubo army was able to avoid his scouts and run to the city of Fu Qi to besiege him!

After suffering a loss, such a thing is never allowed to happen again.

"Regent, the rangers under my command are good at tracking, and when the Tibetan army withdrew, I have sent rangers to quietly follow the Tibetans, and the rangers have sent back news about the Tibetan army."

Batu spoke.

Li Jing was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately asked Batu to lead the way, and the whole army attacked!

Under the guidance of the rangers, they came to the vicinity of the Tubo army, and the Tubo scouts reported urgently!

Li Jing gathered an army of 150,000 and confronted the 70,000-strong army of Tubo in the Shule Valley, with the Tubo encamped north of Shule and the Tang army stationed west of Shule.

"Regent, the Tubo army is on our shore, and now we are 150,000 against 70,000, if we can kill it in one go, we will definitely be able to defeat the Tubo army!"

Batu again persuaded Li Jing to send troops.

Li Jing did not agree to Batu's opinion, now is not the time, Li Jing plans to equip the head-mounted night vision devices at night, and send out a team of 3,000 muskets to attack the Tubo camp.

Just give these 3,000 muskets a chance to practice with live ammunition!

In addition, news came from the four towns of Anxi that in order to deal with the Tang army, the Qinling had drawn soldiers and horses from all over the country, especially the soldiers and horses of the four towns of Anxi, which were taken away by the Qinling Tomb in large quantities, and the current defenders of the four towns of Anxi were insufficient.

This is a good opportunity for Li Jing, a good opportunity to recapture the four towns of Anxi!

"Don't be in such a hurry, you can't run away from Qinling, sooner or later you will have a chance to fight with the other party, and you won't be in a hurry!"

Ba Du was puzzled: "Regent, the enemy army is opposite us, and we are confronting each other here, on the Qinling will definitely draw troops and horses from other places, if we can't quickly defeat the enemy army, when the Tibetan reinforcements arrive, we may not be able to win!"

"I have my own measure, Batu, I have another thing that you need to do, and only you can do it, are you willing?"

Li Jing asked rhetorically without explanation.

"I will obey the Lord Regent's orders!"

Batu knelt down on one knee and saluted.

"On Qinling, soldiers and horses are bound to be requisitioned from all over the country, and the four towns of Anxi are bound to be empty, I want you to lead an army of 40,000 to recover the four towns of Anxi!"

Li Jing looked serious, the four towns of Anxi are important passages to protect the Western Regions, consolidate the northwest border defense of the Tang Dynasty, and ensure the smooth flow of the Silk Road, which plays a very important role.

Therefore, the four towns of Anxi must be recaptured at any cost, which is also one of the main reasons for Li Jing's personal expedition!

"Yes!"

Badu answered, got up and retreated, mobilized 40,000 troops to pull, and set off for the four towns of Anxi.

In the spring of the second year of Fude, on March 21, the soldiers and horses stationed in Anxi received an order from the Nonqin Tomb and went to the Shule River Valley to reinforce the Nonqin Tomb.

……

"General, there are traces of enemy troops ahead!"

The rangers galloped from a distance and stopped in front of Batu, where they spotted a Tibetan army returning from the four towns of Anxi, which had come from Qiuzi.

"How many people are there?"

Batu's eyes lit up, if he could completely annihilate this Tibetan army, it would not only weaken the military strength of Tubo, but also relieve the pressure on the regent's side.

"About 5,000 people!"

The Ranger spoke.

Five thousand people are not enough for his 40,000 troops.

"Wu Tong, you lead five thousand cavalry to destroy this Tubo army for me, you must not let one of them escape, if you let one of the Tubo escape, I will cut off your head!"

Batu said to one of the generals beside him.

"Please rest assured, General! If one of them is allowed to run away, without the general's hands, I would like to come and see them!"

Wu Tong said, with his 5,000 cavalry, towards the Tubo army from Qiuzi.

The two sides met six miles away from Batu, and before the Tubo army could react, Wu Tong led the cavalry to charge and kill, and after a battle between the two sides, the Tubo army was defeated, and the whole army of 5,000 people was not left, all of them were killed!

Just as Wu Tong was about to go back to report to Batu, he found that a Tubo army was coming towards this side, so Wu Tong simply did not stop doing anything, led his cavalry, and fought another battle with this Tubo army from Khotan.

By the time Batu led the army to arrive, the battle on Wutong's side had ended, and the Tubo army was annihilated again.

"General, fortunately, I am not dishonored! I have annihilated two Tibetan armies!"

Wu Tong came to Batu to salute and report his achievements to Batu!

"You've done a good job! After the four towns of Anxi are recovered, I will ask the regent for credit for you!"

Badu nodded, full of praise for Wu Tong.

"Willing to serve the regent!"

In order to recover the four towns of Anxi as soon as possible, Batu decided to divide the troops into two routes, and at the same time use troops against the four towns, he led a road of 20,000 soldiers and horses to attack the two towns of Qiuzi and Xiaye.

The deputy general Tai Dahe had 20,000 soldiers and horses all the way, attacked the two towns of Khotan and Shule, and finally converged in Broken Leaf City.

March 23 of the second year of Forde.

Batu personally led a large army to besiege Qiuci City, Qiuci people have long been fed up with the Tubo people, miss the Tang Dynasty in their hearts, when the Batu soldiers are in the city, open the city gate to meet the Batu army, and kill a few Tubo soldiers.

After Batu took Qiuzi, he left thousands of people to defend the town and led the army to fight the broken leaves.

The defenders of Broken Leaf City, under the command of the Tubo people, bravely resisted, but in the end they still failed to hold Broken Leaf City, and after Batu captured Broken Leaf City, they ordered all those who resisted to be slaughtered!

On the other side, Tai Dahe led the army to push all the way, and without any resistance, he took the two cities of Khotan and Shule, and led the army to join Batu.

Batu immediately sent people to report to Li Jing on the recovery of the four towns of Anxi, and asked for the next instruction, which was to stay in the four towns of Anxi and lead the troops back to fight against the Qinling.
