The attack and defense of the city is the most difficult in the war, both the offensive and defensive sides are uncomfortable, life and death are also the most direct and fastest, a boulder falling from the sky, an arrow from the oblique thorn coldly, a scoop of boiling oil poured on the ladder to climb the clouds...... They are all deadly killers, in the crowd of people, it is just luck, good luck, the gods bless, unharmed, bad luck, two steps into battle and a hit, death is painful and fast.

With the generals waving the flag again and again, the stone-throwing truck threw the boulders of the size of the hug to the head of Songzhou City, falling all over the sky, like a divine punishment. The Tubo soldiers at the head of the city tasted the taste of war with the Tang Dynasty for the first time, there were countless Tubo soldiers standing at the head of the city, because of the long-term hearing of the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, the Tubo did not dare to slack off, the entire city was full of soldiers to the greatest extent, who knew that the opening remarks of the Tang Dynasty were a rain of arrows and boulders, the city head was too crowded between people, even if they looked at the boulders straight to the top of their heads, but they could not avoid it, after a scream, countless people turned into a pool of blurred flesh and blood corpses.

The Tibetan generals realized the mistake of defending the city, and hurriedly ordered most of the soldiers to leave the city, and after a period of panic, the Tubo people paid the price of thousands of people before they learned how to evade the Tang army's long-range weapons.

Niu Jinda is not wrong, the general's ability to win the battle is all filled in by human life, and it is the same for both the enemy and us.

The rhythm of the siege on three sides is the same, Hou Junji, Liu Lan, Niu Jinda are all famous generals who have gone through a hundred battles, and they are full of tacit understanding with each other, as if they have calculated the time, and the stone-throwing cart poured the boulder for more than half an hour towards the Songzhou city wall. Suddenly, the stones stopped being thrown on three sides, and the Tibetan soldiers were terrified, and the rumbling drums were heard on three sides outside the city. Rows of neat Tang army officers and soldiers finally came out of the ranks, all holding horizontal knives and long lances and wooden guns, like stabbing over ant nests, black pressure towards the city wall, every ten steps there are people carrying long ladders, jumping into the moat without hesitation, and putting the ladders on both sides of the river......

The soldiers of the Tang Army all over the mountains hissed and shouted for killing. The huge waves swept towards the city like a crashing shore, and the Tibetan soldiers at the city head were not to be outdone. When the Tang army was more than 100 steps away from the city wall, they mercilessly drew their bows and shot arrows, attacking and defending with all their strength to slaughter each other's lives in order to fight for their own survival.

…………

Li Su stood beside Niu Jinda. This was specially instructed by Niu Jinda, Li Su was not allowed to run around during the battle, and his range of activities was stipulated to be within a radius of ten zhang from the Chinese army commander's banner.

Next to him was a huge cowhide drum, which kept rumbling, and the yellow sand of the ground under his feet jumped uneasily with the rhythm of the giant drum, Li Su watched the soldiers of the Tang Army rush across the moat one after another, rush to the city wall, and climb up the ladder as if they were dying, and the soldiers below kept using crossbow arrows to cover it. The Tubo soldiers used hook and sickle spears to push away the cloud ladder at the head of the city, or simply poured a layer of boiling tung oil on the cloud ladder, Li Su watched countless Tang army soldiers fall to the ground from the ladder more than ten zhang high. or was poured on the body by tung oil, and the whole body screamed like a fire and fell into the dust......

The tragedy and cruelty of the war, Li Su saw with his own eyes today, his heart beat faster than the rhythm of the drums, and the screams of every Tang Army soldier could cause his cheeks to twitch fiercely.

The Chinese army was a few miles away from the city. Li Su seemed to smell a strong smell of blood that made people want to vomit, mixed with countless screams. The peaceful border city is now a purgatory.

I don't know if there are Wang Zhu and Wang Zhi in those brave siege teams, if there are really them, what are the chances of them surviving in such a cruel battle array?

Li Su couldn't help but worry, the Wang brothers were not strangers, they were the first friends he made after he came to this world, and they didn't have any relatives, but he just felt that he was responsible to them.

One blow of strength, then decline, three and exhaustion.

Half an hour later, Niu Jinda, who was under the command of the commander of the Standing Army, sighed, shook his head and said: "No, I can't attack this time, and the other two sides should be the same, it's time to mingjin." ”

As soon as the words fell, I heard the sound of Mingjin withdrawing troops from the east and north from a distance, Niu Jinda's guess was right, they were all famous generals who had gone through a hundred battles, when to advance, when to retreat, every general has a size in his heart.

Niu Jinda nodded and waved his hand indifferently: "Herald Mingjin!" ”

The huge waves swept the city like a fierce crash on the shore, and retreated quietly like a tide, leaving thousands of corpses of the Tang army under the root of the Songzhou city wall.

Li Su's heart still hung for a long time and never let go.

The siege of the city was only half an hour, and it was obvious that this was the first test of the three great governors of Songzhou's defensive forces, and the result was naturally expected by the three generals.

Yet, thousands of lives were lost forever in this first temptation.

After the war, there was a sea of corpses and blood everywhere.

Several teams of Tang soldiers walked out of the front formation, close to the city wall, trying to collect the remains of the robes, walked about a hundred steps, the city wall was a rain of arrows, the soldiers had to grit their teeth to take back the remains a little closer, as for the root of the city wall, but they could only wait for the capture of Songzhou City before collecting.

Li Su watched the corpses being carried back, so he took advantage of Niu Jinda's lack of attention, quietly slipped to the place where the corpses were placed, looked for them one by one, looked for them for a long time, and found that there were no Wang brothers inside, Li Su was temporarily relieved.

The first siege failed, and the Tang army retreated ten miles and camped.

Niu Jinda convened the generals to discuss the siege strategy, Li Su secretly ran out of the Chinese army, first went to the crossbow and arrow battalion of the former army to take a look, and heard that Wang Zhi did not go into battle today, but followed the veteran to familiarize himself with the battlefield, so Li Su went to the Modao team again, and found that he was intact when he found Wang Zhuan, so he was completely relieved.

"Is the second child okay? Is dick okay? Wang Zhu's face was a little pale, and when he saw Li Su, he hurriedly asked: "The fire chief does not allow me to leave the camp, and I can't find out the news of the second child......"

"The second child is fine, I went to see him just now, and he was practicing with the veteran, don't worry." Li Su hurriedly comforted.

Wang Zhu breathed a sigh of relief, and his face gradually returned to its original state.

"Did you go into battle today?" Li Su asked.

Wang Zhu shook his head: "The fire chief said." The general manager will not use the Modao team lightly, unless it is at the juncture of deciding the outcome of the battle, today is just a temptation. We will definitely not be used. I'm only worried about the second one, the crossbow battalion is ready to be used at any time, and it's the first one to go out in every battle......"

Li Su's mind was very confused, and he kept repeating meaningless comfort: "The second child is fine, don't worry, he is fine......"

The shadow of death hung over the two of them, as if a knife hung high above their heads. I don't know when it's going to fall.

Neither was in the mood to laugh, and the two sat opposite each other in silence. Li Su sighed faintly and said, "The chief manager has just gathered the generals with drums and discussed the war, and tomorrow will ...... I'm afraid I'm going to have to attack the city. The method of siege is probably not the same as it is today. ”

Wang Zhu hung his head, not knowing what he was thinking, he raised his head for a long time and grinned: "Attack, enter the government soldiers, and the left and right no longer take their lives as their lives, the fire chief said, if you can kill five Tubo thieves in this battle, you can get twenty acres of Yongye field." In the future, our family will not be a farmer, but also taste the taste of the local owner, and have 20 acres of land. The three brothers in the family have the confidence to marry their mother-in-law. ”

Li Suqiang said with a smile: "In the future, when there is a harvest in the field, you can also buy one or two maids, do housework, sleep with you, and use it however you want." ”

Wang Zhu smiled even more, smacked his lips and began to think: "Li Su." You said...... What is it like to sleep with an aunt? I remember when we were children, we went to listen to the wall roots of other people's houses, and the mother-in-law in the village was sleeping with men humming and chirping. Are they comfortable or uncomfortable? ”

"It should be comfortable."

Wang Zhu sighed: "I haven't slept with my aunt in my life......"

Li Su smiled so much that his eyes were red: "I'll take you to the Qinglou after I go back, and I'll treat you." ”

Wang Zhu also smiled: "It's decided, you have a treat." ”

There was silence again, and after a long time, Li Su stood up and looked at him deeply: "I'm back to the camp." ”

Wang Zhu also stood up: "It's dark on the road, be careful." ”

The two looked at each other and smiled, Li Su suddenly stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder: "Take care, you must take care." ”

"Hmm."

*

Just after the next hour, Niu Jinda ordered another siege.

This time the method was changed, the stone throwing cart was no longer a boulder, but a can of fire oil, the overwhelming cans smashed into the city, smashed, and then the arrow was wrapped in a cloth stained with fire oil, ignited an arrow and shot it, the fire oil on the city suddenly burned, in the raging fire, I saw the Tubo soldiers on fire, screaming and rolling all over the ground.

The officers and men of the Tang Army were excited, swept away the low morale of yesterday's siege failure, and shouted loudly with their swords and halberds.

The stone-throwing cart still did not stop, this time it was replaced with a boulder, taking advantage of the fierce fire at the head of the city, the boulder was once again overwhelming towards the head of the city, and countless Tubo soldiers had no time to avoid the boulder in response to the flames, when even countless people were stoned to death.

Li Su, who was standing under the banner of the Chinese military marshal, couldn't help but get excited, this time there seemed to be a drama......

The rumbling drums sounded, and the Tang army attacked the city again, holding horizontal swords and wooden spears, like a dark red tide, mercilessly rushing towards the city.

Today seems to be much smoother than yesterday, the Tubo soldiers on the city head were beaten by the previous round of heavy casualties, the Tang army set up the ladder on the city head when there was no fierce resistance as yesterday, the city only heard the Tubo generals angry shouting and scolding, and there were teams of Tubo soldiers in a panic to the top of the city, quickly replenishing the position, and the Tang army's morale today is very high, Li Su can see with the naked eye that several Tang soldiers have climbed up to the city, draw their swords and fight to the death with the Tubo soldiers on the city.

The shape shì is very good, and even Niu Jinda's eyes gradually showed a smile.

At this time, he suddenly heard a gong in the city gate, the south gate was unexpectedly opened, and the drawbridge was slowly lowered. ”

ps: There is one more ...... (To be continued)
