Although he was unwilling to his heart, Xue Renzhong knew that he was powerless to change something. Even if his brother Xue Renxiao died in front of him, even if thousands of rebels fell under the sword of Dai Encuoba in Ding Qing and other places, looking at the overall situation, as long as this person was willing to surrender, no matter whether it was the Great Lama Lomba or Li Rui, they would accept it happily.

Dai Enjieba was a great nobleman of Tubo and a confidant of the former Tubo Theory of Tocharo. He had a high hope in Tubo. His surrender was symbolic. Whether it was for the next war or the future governance and naturalization of Tubo, such people were of great use.

For Lomba, the Yellow Sect has always occupied a dominant position, and a heavyweight figure like Dai Encuoba, who turned to the Red Sect, undoubtedly has positive significance for his future position as the leader of the Orthodox Sect in this area.

In the face of these overall situations, what is the death of my brother?

The war in Chamdo came to an end, but compared with the whole situation, the war had just begun. Tang Degong and Lomba Lama were busy with the aftermath, while Li Rui and Xue Renzhong were busy reorganizing the troops and preparing to explode Sinobude's chrysanthemums.

Li Rui unceremoniously reorganized Xue Renzhong's original troops on a large scale, and selected a large number of capable forces to enrich his troops. Within a few days, he expanded his rangers to 5,000. This included a large number of Xue's soldiers, and more people who were skilled in riding and shooting from serfs. Xue Renzhong led the rest of his troops to annex the subordinates of Daiencuoba who had just surrendered.

On the fifth day after the reorganization was completed in a hurry, Li Rui took the five thousand rangers and headed straight towards Yushu.

At this time, Chinan, Delhi, which had been surrounded by Li Cunzhong's troops, was full of excitement between the Zhaqu River Basin and the Tongtian River Basin.

His strategy was successful.

Li Cunzhong got into the cage he had set up in advance. It was easy to come in, but it was difficult to get out. There was Zhaqu River in front and Tongtian River in the back. Even if Li Cunzhong wanted to break through, he would be blocked by these two rivers, and his fate was basically destined to be completely wiped out by himself.

When the troops surrounding the back came and had completely blocked the Tongtian River, Dereknan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The total number of soldiers and civilians of Li Cunzhong's troops was only 40,000, but the Tubo troops surrounding him now have almost reached 100,000. And this number will increase. Mangaba of Chamdo should have taken Chamdo now, and he is traveling day and night to meet with Sinobude?

Li Cunzhong was forced to set up a camp in Nangqianqu, but what's the use? His logistics camp was being captured one after another, and his supply route had been completely cut off by himself. What's the use of an isolated army that penetrated the hinterland of Tubo, no matter how strong the combat power is.

He doesn't even have to send a large army to attack him. He just needs to surround him for a while. This army, which has no way to heaven and no way to enter the earth, will naturally collapse.

No matter how strict the military discipline of the Tang army was or how good the soldiers were, when they had no food, they would still be weak and still would not have the strength to raise the swords and guns in their hands to start fighting.

Chinan, Delhi, has begun to consider capturing as many prisoners as possible. It would be great if it could capture a large number of senior Tang army generals below Li Cunzhong.

The senior Tubo leaders such as Chinan Delhi and Senobude all had a good understanding of the Tang Dynasty. They knew very well that the strength gap between the two countries was so big that they didn't want to make Li Ze really angry. If they could catch a large number of Tang army prisoners, they would have the capital to bargain with Li Ze.

"A great discussion, why do the Tang army have so many long-range suppression weapons?" A group of senior Tubo generals looked at the Tang army's position in the distance as Chinan, Delhi, watched the Tang army's position in the distance on the high platform. The veteran Tu Alu asked in confusion. Standing at their height, you can clearly see the dense crowds of catapults, crossbows and other weapons on the Tang army's position. And it's not like this in a certain camp, but in the five blooming petals and stamens.

The reason why Tu Alu was confused was because this time Li Cunzhong came to rescue Abdula. From the perspective of the opponent's strategic purpose, he did not think about attacking Chengdayi. It was unusual for the army to carry so many heavy weapons. There was no doubt that these weapons would affect the speed of their army's advance.

"The military manufacturing of the Tang army is quite powerful!" Snowbud, who has lived in the Tang Dynasty for a long time, explained: "Tuaru, they are not like us. In addition to the temporary manufacturing of large weapons such as trenchers, they have completed the modularization and standardization of these weapons."

"What is modularization and standardization?" Tuaru was puzzled.

"It's very simple. There are different divisions of labor in their military workshops. A workshop only produces part of the weapons and only assembles them during wartime. The dozens or hundreds of parts of weapons such as catapults and crossbows have reached a unified standard and can be replaced at will, so they do not need much energy in transportation. The Tang army relies heavily on the cover of these weapons in combat, and their army has evolved a lot of offensive tactics based on these weapons."

Xenobud said it was very simple, but the people present knew that it was not simple at all. At least the craftsmen in their country could never do anything. Not to mention these large and more sophisticated weapons, they were made by the two craftsmen, and they might be different. For example, some sharpshooters in the Tubo army needed to choose the feather arrows that suited them one by one, otherwise, a slight difference might greatly reduce their skills.

"After this battle, we must find ways to catch more of their craftsmen. I think these things are quite useful to us." Tuaru said solemnly.

"Of course!" Sinobud nodded. "Yizhou Zhu Youzhen and others cannot compare with the Tang people in these aspects. Although the technologies they provide us are of some benefit to us, they are still far behind those of the Tang people."

"Why didn't you see their cavalry camp?" Another young Tubo nobleman looked for a while and suddenly asked in surprise: "Where did Li Cunzhong's cavalry go?"

Li Cunzhong's troops had a large number of cavalry. Among the 12 guards of the Tang Dynasty, Li Cunzhong's troops and Zhang Jia's troops had a large number of cavalry, but now, there are no cavalry camps in Li Cunzhong's camp.

The cavalry camps are completely different from those of infantry camps.

It was not until the Tubo nobleman asked that everyone suddenly discovered this problem.

This means that Li Cunzhong’s perfect strategic deception is mentioned.

His army carried a large number of mules and horses, and during the march, he disguised these mules and horses as his own cavalry team. While walking, he was stationed in a scattered manner. Until here, these mules and horses had almost been scattered to various logistics camps, but they could not see them here. For a long time, the spies and scouts of Tubo were all relying on the hoof prints on the ground to judge the size of Li Cunzhong's team, because they could not get close to most of Li Cunzhong's troops. The cavalry of Abdula's troops had been in charge of the mission of periphery sweeping.

Everyone looked at me, and I looked at you, and a big question mark was drawn in their minds, and a bad feeling suddenly came to everyone's hearts.

As the battle came, a powerful team on the other side suddenly disappeared without a trace under his nose. This was an extremely terrifying thing.

"Mo He, find the opponent's cavalry for me." Delhi Chinan's face changed slightly. "Expand the search range and strengthen the periphery of the periphery. The number of cavalry under Li Cunzhong's troops is large and it cannot disappear without a trace. They must be hiding somewhere."

"If they were the backhand left by Li Cunzhong, I think they should have not crossed Tongtian River yet, otherwise it would be impossible to hide it from us." Tualu said in a deep voice: "The big theories, or it is time for us to launch an attack. Perhaps once we fight, this hidden cavalry team will appear. As long as they reveal their heads, it's easy to say."

Delhi Chinan nodded and waved his hand. The young Tubo nobleman, who had just become a young man, immediately got off the platform and ran away on horseback.

"Tualu..." Standing on the platform, Chinan Delhi pointed the names of five Tubo generals in a row, "You go down and prepare, and start a tentative attack from tomorrow to see where the weakness of Li Cunzhong's plum blossom needle is."

"As for order!" Everyone bowed together.

Seeing the generals leaving one by one, the haze that had just emerged in Delhi Chinan's heart was difficult to dissipate for a moment.

The unknown is terrible.

The most terrifying thing is that when we were about to fight, we realized that there were big omissions on our side.

"Shenobud, what do you think?"

Snowbud was silent for a while and said, "The Great Remarks, no matter where Li Cunzhong's cavalry is hiding at this moment, it should not be within a hundred miles of our surroundings. Otherwise, such a large cavalry would have been hidden from our scouts. What I am a little worried about is that this cavalry did not come in this direction at all, but..."

Delhi Chinan took a deep breath, "You mean, they could have hit our heartland through the Tanggula Pass?"

“Our defense at the Tanggula Pass is very weak.”

"In which direction, it is not suitable for large-scale operations."

"This is based on common sense, what if?" Snowbud's eyes flashed.

"It seems we are going to swallow Li Cunzhong as fast as possible!" Delhi Chinan said with a grim voice: "No matter what tricks they play, I swallowed the other party in one bite, and nothing happened."

Xenobud nodded.
Chapter completed!
