743 is overwhelming
The way of using soldiers, attacking the heart first, Zheng Peng understands this truth, Guo Ziyi will not understand, after attacking the city, the first time is to seize the city gate and the city wall, the four armies of the Western Army, each army to capture a city gate, and clear the Tubo soldiers on the city wall as quickly as possible, when Zheng Peng stepped on the corner tower of the north gate of the city wall, in addition to the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, the city wall was also replaced with the military flag of the Tang Dynasty.
Among them, there are two flags that are the most eye-catching: one is embroidered with "Tang", and the other is a handsome flag embroidered with Zheng characters.
The military flag was planted at the head of the city, indicating that the Tang army had successfully occupied this place, and the enemy looked up and saw the change of banners at the head of the city, and learned that such an important place had fallen, which would deal a huge blow to their morale.
"Meet General Zheng."
"Meet General Zheng."
"Meet General Zheng."
Walking all the way, there were soldiers saluting Zheng Peng, Zheng Peng kept nodding, the gatehouse had collapsed, and he could only walk to the corner tower and look at the situation in Luo Cheng with clairvoyance.
The city wall is connected, it is convenient to mobilize troops during the battle, so that the cheap Tang army, after capturing the north city gate, along both sides of the city wall crazy advance, because a large number of Tubo generals were killed in the north city gate or violently exterminated by the Tang army, Zheng Peng climbed the corner tower of the north city gate, only to see Song Chong lead the left army to capture the last corner tower of the south gate, personally put a handsome flag embroidered with Zheng characters on the top of the corner tower, and on the gate tower of the south city gate, a big flag embroidered with the word "Tang" has already been bathed in the winter sun, fluttering in the wind.
The frightened Tubo soldiers retreated on all fronts, and for the Tang army, it simply became an undefended city.
Great, Zheng Peng couldn't help but clench his fist: Great, the four gates of Luo Qi City have been exhausted in his hands, and all that remains is to catch turtles in the urn.
Zheng Peng turned his head and saw Fang Shanming, who was eager to try, groaned, and said, "Fang Yingzheng." ”
"The subordinates are here." Fang Shan paused for a moment, knowing that Zheng Peng had something to order, so he hurriedly knelt down on one knee to answer the order.
"Take the reserve battalion to enforce a ban on households in the city, everyone is not allowed to close the door, not to go out, violators of the order will be killed, and also, bring the catapult convoy with you, occupy the high ground in the city, and where there is any abnormality, immediately throw fire bombs to support." Zheng Peng said loudly.
Fang Shanming was overjoyed in his heart, and responded loudly: "Get the order!" ”
In front of him is a good time to earn military merits and spoils, but the reserve battalion has not moved, Fang Shanming was thinking about how to ask for battle, but before he could speak, Zheng Peng took the initiative to arrange the task, and he was simply overjoyed.
After Fang Shan Mingxing rushed to take people to carry out the task, Zheng Peng asked people to bring tables and chairs, and watched how the Western Army attacked the city and plundered the land in the corner tower.
At this time, the forward, left, right, and center armies all captured the city gates, and the four armies were like four sharp knives, stabbing the heart of the city of Latah: the Potala Palace, which was built in the center of the city, that is, on the Red Mountain (later known as Maburi Mountain).
The Potala Palace is built by Tubo Zanpu Songtsen Gampo to marry Princess Chizun and Princess Wencheng, in order to show respect for marrying into the Tubo Princess, and also in order to show their cultural and martial arts, especially on the Red Mountain, a total of 1,000 palaces were built on the Red Mountain, named the Potala Palace, and the Potala Palace is also the largest and most conspicuous building in the city.
Songtsen Gampo, who built the Potala Palace, is gone, but the Potala Palace is still there, and his descendants also live in the palace he ordered to be built.
In the middle of a thousand eyes, Zheng Peng saw this red and white palace, this is the first time Zheng Peng saw the Potala Palace after coming to the Tang Dynasty, I thought how majestic and magnificent the legendary Potala Palace was, but I didn't expect to be disappointed after seeing it clearly: from a distance, the red and white palace towers above the red mountain, almost occupying the entire mountain, it looks good, but if you look carefully, you find that the palace looks a little shabby and dilapidated, the red paint on the doors and windows of the palace is a little mottled, the stone carvings on the palace are somewhat incomplete, and the outer walls have fallen in some places. It is too different from the majestic and exquisite, treasure-like Potala Palace seen in later generations.
Zheng Peng just thought about it, and soon relieved that the Potala Palace was built by Songtsan Gampo in the Year of the Iron Rabbit in the Tibetan calendar, and it has experienced hundreds of years of wind and rain since its establishment, and it is reasonable to say that the construction technology of Tubo is far less than that of the Tang Dynasty, and different cultural differences may also lead to differences in aesthetics.
The most important point is that most of the earliest Brada Palace was destroyed in the war, and the Potala Palace, which was majestic and magnificent, and combined the advantages of ancient Tibetan architecture, was the result of reconstruction and decoration many times, and was naturally more majestic and exquisite than what you see now.
"Zheng Peng, what are you thinking, aren't you thinking about those beautiful princesses in Tubo?" Lan Duo watched Zheng Peng staring at the palace of the Red Mountain in the distance, and said with some disdain.
Hmph, man, it's all that kind of thing.
Zheng Peng came back to his senses and quickly responded: "I'm guessing when I can catch Chide Zuzan, I hope they don't have to wait too long for me." ”
Lan Duo snatched the clairvoyance from Zheng Peng's hand, looked at it for a while, and quickly pouted and said: "Now that the gates of Luo Some Cities are under your control, Chide Zuzan can't escape even if he wants to, it's only a matter of time before he catches them, but, it's a pity." ”
"County Lord, what is the pity?" Zheng Peng asked with some kindness.
It's a bit appetizing to say that half is left in half.
Lan Duo said a little depressedly: "If you pull up the Turgish at the beginning, do you still need to give the opportunity to the group of unfamiliar white-eyed wolves in Ge Lulu, isn't Tu Qi Shi better than Ge Lulu?" You see that the cities are so big, and the Western Army will have that little people, if they are disobedient, they should cooperate with the Tibetan reinforcements outside, and see how you deal with them. ”
The city is so big, and the western army is less than 10,000 people even if it is a reserve battalion, and when the reinforcements arrive, they can besiege the city into a lonely city, and Zheng Peng may not be able to live in peace even if he takes it.
What Lan Duo couldn't accept the most was that Zheng Peng was suitable for the people of Tuqi Shi again, Ge Lulu was the undying enemy of Tu Qi Shi, and as soon as Ge Lulu returned to the Tang Dynasty, it meant that both clans became the people of the Tang Dynasty, what should I do when this battle comes?
With such a big hatred, you can't just say it.
It's all this Zheng Peng, now the situation of Tuqi Shi has become very embarrassing, Datang's national strength is too strong, Tuqi Shi can only snort on his back, now there are more mysterious fire bombs and grenades, I have seen their power, and now Tuqi Shi doesn't dare to make trouble and lose his temper, for fear that Datang will be unhappy, and he will destroy Tuqi Shi from the beginning.
Zheng Peng was a little speechless, he only thought about how to take some cities in the military order, and he really didn't take into account the idea of Tuqishi, and Lan Duo also helped himself wholeheartedly, and he didn't discuss it with her, it was indeed a little unfair to her, and he groaned for a while before he said: "There is a sentence, there is no eternal enemy, and there is no eternal friend, if Tuqi Shi and Glolu continue to fight, the hatred will only get deeper and deeper, and more and more people will die, don't worry, I will give Tuqi Shi a satisfactory explanation." ”
Lan Duo stared at Zheng Peng for a moment, and then said with some indignation: "Okay, you said this. ”
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little dull, Lan Duo took the initiative to speak: "What now, Tubo has a thick foundation, can you keep this place with just a little bit of you?" ”
Things have happened, and it's useless to quarrel now, since Zheng Peng has made a statement, there is no need to mess things up, Lan Duo feels that it is important to maintain his friendship with Zheng Peng.
Zheng Peng said calmly: "Quite a few years ago, Dong Zhuo led three thousand Xiliang Iron Cavalry to do whatever he wanted in Chang'an, I don't believe that the number of troops in the West is three times that of him, and he can't govern a small Luo City." ”
When Dong Zhuo led his troops into Chang'an, he only had a mere 3,000 Xiliang Iron Cavalry, but he used the method of bluffing to make all forces dare not act rashly, until the reinforcements arrived.
Tubo is known as the whole people are soldiers, but Zheng Peng feels that it is a bit exaggerated, many Tubo people are ordinary herdsmen, don't look at the city of Luo is the capital of Tubo, according to the information obtained in detail, the permanent population of Luo scene is less than 100,000, mainly Tubo is dominated by nomads, nobles and officials also have their own fiefdoms, and they like to be powerful in their own territory on weekdays.
In Datang, this scale is also a medium city.
It was rare for Lan Duo not to refute, and suddenly pointed to the front and said, "The speed is really fast, General Guo, they have begun to attack the Potala Palace." ”
