The Western Region Allied Forces withdrew.
They completely withdrew from the territory of Gaochang, part of the soldiers stayed in the territory of Yanqi Kingdom, and part of them retreated northward to the territory of the Western Turks.
Li Ke ordered that the entire territory of Gaochang State be occupied immediately, and Cheng Yaojin led an army of 50,000 to guard the northern trade routes of Gaochang State, cut off all commercial exchanges, quickly build a fortification defense system, and intensify border patrols.
Looking to the north of Gaochang is the East Tianshan Mountains. There is a long and narrow valley between the East Tianshan Mountains and the West Tianshan Mountains. This is the only fast passage from Gaochang to the Western Turks.
The Khanfutu City of the Western Turks is located in the basin at the northern foot of the Eastern Tianshan Mountains, and the two countries are only separated by a mountain. (The northern border including Urumqi is the territory of the Western Turks, and the southern border is the countries of the Western Regions. Of course, the Western Turks occupy the entire Central and Western Asia, and the entire small countries in the Western Regions are their vassals.)
Li Ke was afraid that if he killed two generals of the Western Region Alliance this time and offended the Ashina family, the Western Turkic Khan might send troops south to attack Gaochang.
But as long as we stabilize the current situation and wait for a large amount of supplies to be transported to Yiwu Gaochang, at that time, we can join forces with Xue Yantuo to launch a three-pronged attack on Wangting Futu City in the Western Turks.
Secondly, the Youth Battalion was ordered to be commanded by Li Daliang to press against the Western Regions Allied Forces in Yanqi. No matter what method was used, it may not be intimidation and use, and the methods were not limited. Anyway, it was just to prevent the Western Regions Allied Forces from having an easy time in Yanqi.
Yuchi Jingde's army will assist Li Bingdao and three thousand masters of the Mohist family to clean up the territory of Gaochang from now on. All remaining forces will be captured alive as much as possible. He also needs these slaves to build roads, otherwise this western expedition will be a waste of money. .
After Li Ke issued the order, he returned to Gaochang City.
At this moment, Li Jing blew his nose and glared, and chopped the door into pieces with a Tang knife. Because the guard dog barked at him twice, he slashed the guard dog to death.
Today he was so angry that he was half-dead. He had never been treated like this in his life. A figure with the level of the God of War of the Tang Dynasty was actually taken away from the battlefield and sent to the Great Wall to stare at him.
He was so worried that Li Ke would make a mistake on the battlefield. What should he do?
Not to mention the Western Expedition, even escaping back would be difficult!
My daughter is a widow, and all the generals like them have to die. If he dies, he will die. What will happen to the hundreds of people in the family?
Why didn't you listen to the advice?
You are the prince who is marching west on behalf of His Majesty, how can you appear on the battlefield in person?
Li Jing was always inquiring about issues on the front line, but the guards around him refused to let him leave the commander-in-chief's residence.
At this moment, Li Jing had blisters on the corners of his mouth and bloodshot eyes.
"You beasts, if the prince has any good intentions, I will kill you first. It is you who killed the prince. Don't you know how many masters there are in the Western Region Alliance Army?"
"We have killed many generals and battlefield veterans in the previous assassinations. Even the Prince Consort is still injured. General Qin Qiong has been living or dead for more than a month since he encountered them..."
"You short-sighted things, you don't know how to protect the Lord, and you kidnapped me here..."
The eyes of the soldiers at the door were not moved at all, nor did they look at Li Jing's angry expression. However, if Li Jing wanted to get out of the door, he had to step over their corpses first. This was what King Qin personally told him.
They are soldiers, soldiers trained by the prince himself. They only obey military orders, but other things are not their concern.
闼闼闼……
On the stone road outside, there was the sound of dense horse hooves. Li Ke quickly threw away the Tang knife and rushed to the door.
King Qin took the lead and arrived at the gate of the Longyou Governor's Mansion. He jumped off his horse, followed by Yan Yun's Eighteen Cavalry and others.
"Father-in-law, I have brought good news!"
Li Jing finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that King Qin was safe and sound. He was still the suave King of Qin, with no missing arms or legs. His tense nerves finally relaxed.
Yes, your boy will finally come back alive.
"The Western Region Allied Forces retreated. Some of them retreated to the territory of Yanqi Kingdom, and some retreated to the north. They seemed to want to enter the territory of the Western Turks."
Li Jing: "..."
What? Did the Western Region Allied Forces retreat?
How is this possible? The opponent has all the advantages, and there are many masters holding the battle. Even if we have Zhentian Lei, he has used Zhentian Lei before, but he can't retreat from the Western Region Allied Forces.
Li Jing was overjoyed. From the moment he saw Li Ke give him "Wu Mu's Suicide Note", he felt that Li Ke was a military genius. Sure enough, he was right, and many wars were enough to prove that Li Ke was a military genius. Ke's military ability is superior to that of Li Jing.
"Boy, how did you do that?" At this moment, Li Jing also forgot about the relationship between king and minister and directly called his son-in-law "boy."
"Old Mo, take out the head."
Old Mo glanced at his master with a resentful look and took out the old monk's head. He had already said that the monk was a bald donkey and had nowhere to grab his head, so it was difficult to take it. The prince insisted on him holding it, and said that the monk His brains can produce relics and give them to Taoists to try.
Now he was covered in blood, and it cost him a coat to make a package.
Old Mo unwrapped his clothes. The old monk's eyes were still wide open and his face was ferocious.
"What a disgusting old monk is this? This man is extremely powerful. He led his team to kill many of our senior generals."
Li Ke kicked the old monk in the head and said coldly: "Yes, that's the man. He massacred more than 20,000 people in the Tang Dynasty in the Southern Region and hunted down Uncle Qin. Uncle Qin is still missing."
"And in Gaochang, they committed another massacre. They attacked our senior generals and killed more than 30 people including Yin Hu and Shadow outside the city."
"He deserves to die. I just asked for some interest for them."
Then, Fu An came over carrying a sack with a groan, threw it on the ground and asked: "Young Master, how should I deal with this guy's body?"
"It's pickled, and we'll sell it at a good price when we negotiate."
When Fu An heard that the corpse could still be sold for money, he immediately smiled and said: "Okay!"
So he carried Ge Shuhai's body through the gate and went to look for quicklime to pickle the body.
Li Jing was surprised. King Qin was amazing. He turned around such a rotten battle situation.
Young heroes, young heroes.
Your Majesty gave birth to a good son, and I found a good son-in-law!
At this moment, Li Jing was only filled with joy and had completely forgotten about what happened when Li Ke kidnapped him away from the battlefield.
"Your Majesty, whose body is this?"
Li Ke said calmly: "This is the commander-in-chief of the Western Region Alliance Army. His name is Geshu Hai. He is the leader of the Geshu tribe of the Western Turks. He is also the favorite general of the Western Turks Khan."
Li Jing: "..."
Unexpectedly, Ge Shuhai died, but he was curious, how did Ge Shuhai die?
He heard that Geshuhai was the right-hand man of the Western Turkic Khan. This man was brave, resourceful, and good at surprise attacks. He once led the Western Turkic army to attack Tocharo, and even defeated the Persian army in a battle.
In the past few years, during the civil strife between the East and West Turks, it was this person who defeated the Ashinasheer of the East Turks, and then the Ashinasheer of the East Turks surrendered to the Tang Dynasty.
Such a legendary figure died without any explanation?
"Father-in-law, I still have things to do. Let's talk about it later..."
Li Jing was silent for a long time, feeling as if he was scratching his head. How did the prince do it?
Are these three thousand people brought by the prince all peerless masters?
Yes, I heard that the eldest brother has followed him!
