The southern gate of Songzhou was opened, and a group of cavalry rushed out, and Tubo really counterattacked.

The Tang cavalry battalion came head-on, and the two cavalry teams collided fiercely, and then fell into a desperate fight.

Niu Jinda's expression remained unchanged, his eyes were still fixed on the city, there was the key to victory or defeat, the more Tang troops climbed to the city, the more likely this city was to be captured.

However, the Tibetan generals also seem to have some ability, and when the Tang generals bet on the city, he did the opposite.

There are more and more Tubo cavalry out of the city, like a black torrent, gushing out from the city gate and road, and the other two sides of the city wall also heard the earth-shattering shouting and killing sound at this time, obviously this time Tubo is out on three sides, and Hou Junji and Liu Lan's department is also the target of Tubo's counterattack.

The Tang army cavalry battalion and the Tubo cavalry fought to the death, the incident happened suddenly, at this time I didn't care about what formation formation, and the square inch under the drawbridge could not be placed in formation, the cavalry battalion soldiers could only charge horizontally in a group of three or five people, and the Tubo cavalry initially suffered a lot of losses, and soon adjusted their tactics, learning from the Tang Army cavalry camp like a group of three or five people to face each other head-on.

However, there were too many Tubo soldiers out of the city, and soon, the Tang cavalry camp could not suppress the formation and was defeated.

The Tubo divided one group to deal with the cavalry camp, and the other group quickly assembled on the flat ground outside the city, like a black sharp blade, and rushed towards the Chinese army of Niu Jinda's department.

Niu Jinda's face finally changed. ⊕【

The tactics of the Tibetans had completely disrupted his plan to attack the city, and now it was a situation of exchanging offense and defense, and the Tubo people were attacking, while the Tang army was passively defending.

The hardships of this battle are also here, the number of defenders is 200,000, and the siege is only 50,000, even if it is a critical juncture, Tubo is fully capable of sending 100,000 troops out of the city to counterattack. Messed up all the siege plans of the Tang army.

Niu Jinda's eyes were bloodshot and red, and he glared at the Tubo soldiers rushing towards the headquarters of the Chinese army, gritted his teeth fiercely, and said: "The crossbow arrow battalion is arrayed, and the Modao team is pressed back to array!" Send another 5,000 men to continue the siege! ”

Li Su's heart tightened, and he subconsciously glanced at him.

The Chinese army quickly dispersed to both sides. The archers of the crossbow battalion lined up in the middle of the phalanx, their hands full of bows, and their cold arrows aimed at the Tibetan cavalry.

"Put!"

Brush Brush Brush!

More than 100 Tibetan soldiers screamed and fell off their horses, and were ruthlessly trampled by the horse's hooves behind.

At a distance of more than 100 paces, the crossbow archers only had time to release two rounds of arrows, and then the crossbow battalion was scattered by the Tibetan cavalry.

At the rear of the crossbow and arrow battalion, thousands of Mo knives lined up in a phalanx, and as the red flag of the generals waved, the Chang Mo knives in the hands of thousands of Mo swordsmen slowly waved. The action is getting faster and faster.

As soon as the Tibetan cavalry broke up the crossbow battalion, their indomitable momentum stagnated for a moment, and then they saw the Modao team.

The long Mo Dao danced impermeably in the battle array, the general pointed the red flag forward, and the Mo Dao team slowly advanced forward.

The horses of the Tibetan cavalry neighed uneasily, and even the beasts directly felt the murderous aura of the oncoming attack, and the Tibetan cavalry reined in the horses and spun in place. The aura of death emanating from the Mo Dao phalanx was terrifying, and there was no gap between the ranks of the phalanx at all. The double-edged Mo knife wielded so long that all he saw was a black light and shadow, shining brightly in the scorching sun.

The three or five Tubo soldiers may not believe in evil very much, they looked at each other, and after a roar, they rode their horses towards the Modao phalanx, and with a few terrible screams, the people and horses were twisted into a pile of indistinguishable minced meat by the Modao.

After paying the price of blood and life. The Tubo cavalry finally determined that this phalanx was very powerful, and at the moment, they still couldn't provoke hundreds or thousands of people.

Turning his head and roaring a few words to the back, the Tibetan cavalry who went out of the city gathered one after another. Slowly, there were tens of thousands of people, and in the flat open space outside the city, I saw a large area of black pressure, like a dark cloud pressing towards the Mo Dao team.

Niu Jinda snorted angrily when he saw this, and said loudly: "The whole cavalry battalion assembles, strikes from the side, the right army is arrayed, and the frontal attack is attacked, the Modao team can't retreat, and the commander will move forward!" ”

The so-called "take-off" can be understood as a touch of departure, for the cavalry is a charge, when it collides with the enemy, it never stops, it escapes with one blow, and after rushing away from the enemy's formation, it assembles again for the second charge.

The so-called "right army" is the characteristics of the Tang army's operations, the Tang army is divided into two armies, the left army enters to attack the enemy, and the right army does not move, yes, the right army is the legendary reserve, more than a thousand years later, the reserve tactics are still regarded as classic tactics by the Chinese people.

Niu Jinda actually used the right army at this time, which also shows how critical the battle situation is at this moment.

The right army was dispatched, the same troop configuration, but it was a complete formation, in the left army was rushed by the Tubo cavalry, even the Modao team fell into the Tubo cavalry crowd tactics, the right army lined up, and another thousand Modao phalanx slowly advanced from the front.

The Tubo soldiers were finally frightened, their purpose out of the city was only to relieve the pressure of defending the city, not the death squad, the Mo knife team in front of them had made it quite difficult for them to deal with it, and after paying thousands of casualties, they finally messed up the formation of the Mo knife team, and now a complete Mo knife phalanx has emerged, the Tubo soldiers are not stupid, they will not take human lives to fill in again.

The general stuffed his fingers into his mouth and whistled, and the Tibetan cavalry quickly retreated to the city gate like a tide.

At the same time, hundreds of Tang soldiers who climbed to the top of the city and fought to the death against Tubo had no follow-up force to replenish because of Tubo's sniping out of the city, and hundreds of soldiers were all killed at the head of the city like a flat boat that was slapped by a big wave.

The second siege failed again.

Niu Jinda's face was pale, looking at the corpses of the Tang army thrown down by the Tubo soldiers one by one at the head of the city, his eyes were full of anger, and his dark cheeks twitched uncontrollably.

"Mingjin retreats!"

Li Su waited for this sentence, hurriedly took a few steps back, his figure flashed, and disappeared into the Chinese army array.

There were stumps and broken arms everywhere, flesh and blood everywhere were blurred, and listening to a series of hoarse screams of exhaustion, Li Su's every step was in the blood water.

Just grab someone and ask, ask all the way, and finally find the king pile.

Wang Zhu was wounded, very seriously injured, he was in the Mo Dao team of the Left Army just now, he was listed in the middle, which was regarded as the protection of the veterans for the new soldiers, but the final formation was finally scattered by the Tubo cavalry.

When Li Su found Wang Zhuan, Wang Zhu was leaning weakly on the fence outside the camp, smiling at Li Su, grinning widely, and a mouthful of blood gushing out.

A deep wound on his arm that could be seen was bubbling with blood, and the blood was lost quickly, and Wang Zhu's face gradually became a terrible layer of blue ash.

Li Su was stunned for a moment, then looked around and shouted: "Doctor! ”

"Don't scream, my injury is light, there are a total of one or twenty doctors in the army, and there are missing hands and feet everywhere, who will care about a small injury like mine." Wang Zhu smiled weakly.

Li Su's face was gloomy, and he simply didn't call the doctor, he half-knelt down, tore a large piece of the placket of his clothes, and then ripped off the leather bag containing the liquor around his waist, and poured it down on the wound on Wang Zhuan's arm without saying a word.

Wang Zhu screamed in pain, trembling all over.

"Don't scream, disinfect your ......" Li Su didn't raise his head, after washing the wound with spirits, and then wrapped his wound with a clean cloth layer by layer, this wound should be stitched, but Li Su really couldn't find a tool for a while, so let's deal with it for the time being.

"Why are you vomiting blood?" Li Su lowered his head and wrapped his wound as he asked.

Li Su's movements were a little jerky, after all, he had no experience, so much pain made Wang Zhu grin and take a cool breath from time to time.

Wang Zhu endured the pain, frowned, and said: "I was hit by the horse of the Tibetan thief, my stomach burned painfully, and I estimated that I had internal injuries, and I pity those robes around me......"

Wang Zhuan's eyes turned red as he spoke.

"Just now, the fire chief said, the war is unfavorable, I haven't broken my hands or feet, I have to go into battle tomorrow, this life will probably be explained tomorrow, I just don't know if the second child is dead, Li Su, wait a minute, help me inquire......"

The king leaned feebly against the fence and burst into tears.

"Li Su, I don't really want to die...... Seriously, I really want to run away and run back to the village. Yes, I'm cowardly, how good it is to live, I'm only seventeen years old, and I haven't slept with my mother-in-law, but if I escape, the Wang family will not be able to raise their heads for several generations, and I can't afford to lose people...... Li Su, I'm afraid that tomorrow will be more auspicious, you will help me take care of my father and mother and the fourth child in the future, it will be better if the second child is alive......"

As he spoke, his tears flowed more and more, and he didn't dare to cry out loud for fear of making jokes, so he hung his head and kept wiping his tears.

"You don't have to go into battle tomorrow." Li Su was doing his work, and his mouth said lightly.

"Why?" Wang Zhu was stunned.

After wrapping up the wound, Li Su looked at his masterpiece, seemed not very satisfied, shook his head and said, "Because I have a way." ”

"Huh?"

Li Su looked up at the clear and cloudless blue sky, and exhaled a long breath: "It's time to come up with a way, otherwise your brothers will have to die under Songzhou City, take care of your father and mother's troublesome matter, or you should come by yourself." (To be continued......)
