Li De rode his horse and chased a Tubo cavalry in front of him.

He could even see the somewhat hideous and fearful face of the Tubo soldier when he turned around and shot him on the arrow.

The feather arrow roared, and Li De just lowered his head slightly. He turned around and shot an arrow in such high-speed movement. If he could still shoot himself, there would be a ghost. Unless he was an archer like Chen Changping, but how could such a super shooter be so easy to encounter?

The opponent turned around and shot the arrow, and his speed was slightly affected. Li De took the opportunity to narrow the distance and exhale, and the spear in his hand was already stabbed hard at the cavalry's back.

He easily tore open the leather armor, picked up the man from the horse, threw it heavily to the ground, then stepped forward, with both hands and reins, and the war horse jumped high with its front hooves and landed heavily.

A puff was like stepping on a rotten watermelon.

Squinted his eyes and looked at the Tubo people who had escaped with only a blurry back. Li De's murderous aura in his eyes did not diminish at all.

This was the seventh battle after he arrived in Lingzhou.

Liu Xiaochan rode his horse to him, bent down and grabbed Li De's reins, and said, "I can't catch up, let's go back!"

Li De nodded in a depressed manner and let Liu Xiaochan lead his horses to the direction.

Liu Xiaochan knew that Li De was in a very bad mood.

To be precise, after defeating Songro Ciren and completely taking down Xiazhou City, he seemed to have changed his appearance. Even when he went to Yinzhou to surround Laza, he just forced himself to smile.

Liu Xiaochan knew why.

The tragic situation in Xiazhou City gave Li De too much excitement.

In Li De's own words, since he led his troops to fight, he has been doing the work of saving people, killing bandits and soldiers. No matter how many of these people he killed, he would not have any psychological burden. But this time it was different, because of his decision, the innocent people in Xiazhou City were extremely injured.

These people could have died without having to die.

"Madam said, Mr. Gongsun Changming praised your pre-war decision and believed that your future prospects were limitless!" Liu Xiaochan said: "So, Mr. Gongsun gave me a little more color in the post-war report written by Xue Jian. Madam asked me to tell you, don't worry about someone seeking trouble for you on the Censorate. Although the Censorate is divided into several factions, the mainstream is still in the hands of Yang Kai."

Li De shook his head: "I'm not afraid that someone will seek my troubles, I can't get over it. Xiaochan, I'm different from you. When I see those people, I feel like I saw my family when I was a child. After commanding troops and fighting, I kept telling myself to be an upright person and a good person. But this time, I went to be a demon."

"You're thinking too much." Liu Xiaochan shook his head and said, "Isn't this for the great cause of the prime minister? Look at Hedong, how much loss has been paid this time? If you don't seize this opportunity this time, An Sui will still be controlled by Du. Maybe in the future, the Hedong incident will happen again, and more people will die. This time, it's just that Xiazhou City has suffered a lot of damage, and other places are still intact. Moreover, An Sui will be truly in the hands of the prime minister. In a few years, it will be revitalized, and it can be regarded as a blessing in disguise. He Ru's family crying? He Ru's place crying, and He Ru's city crying?"

"Li'er is this, but I can't get over this hurdle in my heart." Li De sighed to the sky.

"Then kill more Tubo people. If it weren't for them, so many things wouldn't have happened!" Liu Xiaochan smiled and said, "After we came to Lingzhou, we have fought with Tubo people all over the way seven times. I'm afraid there will be no fewer people on Xue Jian's side, at least thousands of Tubo elites have been destroyed, right?"

While they were talking, there was a large group of people in their eyes, including Li De's subordinates and more than a thousand people rescued by them.

Li De's troops were the first to arrive in Lingzhou. According to Li Ze's military order, their troops were mainly to deter and monitor the movements of the Tubo army in Lingzhou, and do not start the war easily until the main force arrived.

But after Li De arrived, he found that the Tubo people were preparing for a major retreat. It would be fine if they just retreated, but the problem was that they plundered a lot in Lingzhou. Of course, if they just robbed some property, they would not have let Li De violate Li Ze's military orders, but the main thing that the Tubo people robbed was people. They were the people of Lingzhou.

Li De, who was in extreme contradiction and pain, issued an order to attack the Tubo people almost without thinking.

The Tubo people did not expect Laza to be destroyed so quickly, nor did they expect Li De's cavalry to come so quickly. So their large team was distributed in Lingzhou to plunder the people.

For Tochar, this journey was a typical big loss. Before leaving, he had to let his subordinates gain something. He also needed his subordinates to continue to be loyal to him, plundering a large number of people in the Central Plains to return, and turning them into slaves to the Tubo people would be an effective compensation for his subordinates.

The people of the Tang Dynasty were the best slaves, which was the general knowledge of the Tubo nobles.

These people can farm, weaving, and breeding. There are also many craftsmen proficient in various crafts, such as blacksmiths, stonemasons, carpenters and other craftsmen, which are exactly what they need. If you can grab such a large number of slaves, you will be more touching than gold, silver and treasures.

Li De divided his subordinates into several ways, fighting with the Tubo people who plundered the people all over the world. So far, they have rescued tens of thousands of people, and his temporary camp was filled with them. In order to solve the food problem of these people, Li De was also very worried and could only frequently ask Li Ze of Yinzhou frequently, hoping that the large army would speed up and arrive in Lingzhou quickly.

On the high walls of Lingzhou City, Tocharo looked at the vast land outside the city with melancholy. Although the country is good, he just has no chance of being with him. If he succeeds this time, he can use Ansui as the fortress for advancement and then plan for the entire northern part of the Tang Dynasty. In this way, he can build an extremely huge Tubo Empire, and his achievements will far exceed that of Wang Songtsen Gampo, the greatest in Tubo history, and become the first person in history.

Unfortunately, he failed.

Failure to him not only loses the opportunity to record the merits, but also loses the opportunity to take his family to a higher level. When he returns to the country, he will be entangled with endless internal friction. It would be great to be able to recreate a stable situation for his family in his lifetime.

I am already sixty, it’s not a good New Year!

And the opponent who was about to arrive in Lingzhou, Li Ze of the Tang Dynasty, was only over 20 years old.

Thinking about the opponent's age and the wrists shown by the opponent this time, Tochar couldn't help but feel frightened.

He was really scared.

He was not afraid of Li Ze when he was alive, and Li Ze would definitely not have the heart to plan for Tubo next time. He would have to devote himself to the unification of the Tang Dynasty first. But what about the future? If Li Ze unified the Tang Dynasty, it would take ten to twenty years to defeat all his opponents. At that time, he was only in his forties, which was the most mature golden years for a man, and it was the time when Nianli and strong energy needed to vent.

What if Li Ze turned his horse's head and looked at Tubo at that time?

I definitely won't be able to live that time.

Who can be his opponent in Tubo?

At least, among his descendants, Tochar could not find such a person.

After going back, I have to work hard to cultivate a successor. Not to mention that I can compete with Li Ze, at least I must keep my current family business!

"Da Lum, just now the military newspaper came. Li De's cavalry fought with us again, and we lost more than a hundred cavalry." Basan walked to Tochar and whispered. "The location of Li De's camp has been discovered. General Bacha and the others hope that Da Lum can issue an order to gather troops and destroy this arrogant guy."

Tocharo looked back at Basang. His most capable subordinate was also haggard during this period. After returning to China and successfully launched the Tianhuo Plan, he rushed to Lingzhou without stopping to help him deal with the retreat.

"Li De has 15,000 cavalry, right? Songlang General Ren died at his hands?" Tocharo asked.

"Yes. So Bacha and the others think this is a good opportunity. Li Ze's main force did not arrive. We have time to annihilate this force first, Li De, but Li Ze's confidant and direct descendants. If we can kill him, we can finally win a game this time."

Tocharo was silent for a moment, but shook his head: "What can a victory change? We lost in this battle after all, and such fighting spirit is completely unnecessary. Li De 15,000 cavalry, well-equipped and extremely high tactical literacy. Basang, how much does it cost to completely defeat them? What kind of battle loss ratio will we get? One to one, or one to two?"

Basan remained silent.

"Li Ze broke Li De's part and had no effect on him. But what if we turn the elite troops in our hands into thousands and tens of thousands, what should we do if we return to China?" Tocharo said.

"The great theory is reasonable. If the mountains and rivers do not turn, we will eventually find the day when we recover our losses!" Basang said.

"We don't have this opportunity anymore. We look forward to our descendants!" Tocharo said: "Basan, you have to work hard to go to Chang'an. Tell Jingxiang that Li Ze will definitely take action against them next. We will try our best to provide them with some help, as long as we can do it. I hope they can block Li Ze."

"yes."
