You don't need any batch file because by default whenever you connect to internet, Windows will automatically check for update and download and install it. You may run a quick test and just stay connect to internet without checking for update and you will see Windows will asking for update and you should see installed updates in the Windows Update history.
However, in case you are looking for script to do checking, it is easier to do it with Windows PowerShell.
You may open Windows PowerShell as administrator and then first import the Windows Update library with the following command:

Install-Module PSWindowsUpdate

The run the following command to check for update

Get-WindowsUpdate

And finally use the following command to install it:

Install-WindowsUpdate
