Anxi, the Remaining Flag, Took Root in Central Asia After the Tragic Defeat of Talas

Talas was defeated miserably, and the corpses of 20,000 Tang troops were still cold. Nangong Lie climbed out of the pile of dead people, his right arm penetrated, and there were only thirty-seven remaining soldiers around him. Behind him were Dashi's pursuers and on both sides were Geluolu's rangers. The road back east was completely cut off. The Anxi Protectorate has too much time to take care of itself, and the imperial court is thousands of miles away - they are lonely souls forgotten by the Tang Dynasty. There is no system, no plug-ins, only the logistics planning thinking of the 21st century and a broken knife with a curled blade. Short of food? He relies on mathematics to calculate the migration routes of wild sheep and grab food in the desperate situation of the Gobi. Missing a knife? He used cost thinking to ambush his pursuers and used the enemy's blood to sharpen his brother's sword. Short of people? Defeated soldiers, escaped slaves, and desperate prairie people were all trained into tiger and wolf masters by him. From thirty-seven remnants, to three thousand cavalry, to eight armies. Suiye City, Talas, Samarkand... When the Tang Dynasty was shrinking its defense line in the Western Region, he took his brothers and forcibly carved out a "Shuo Kingdom" in the wasteland. Someone asked him: "You are from Tang Dynasty, why don't you go back?" He looked to the east and was silent for a moment: "Go back and be a slave? No, I will guard the Western Region." This is not a cheating story. This is a way for a defeated general to fight his way out of a desperate situation with his brothers.
