Chapter 18 Strength is no more than thirty sucks

Pei Min stood out of the battlements, and where the yellow sand was engulfed, the Tubo archers were all among them. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe Tibetans can't turn their eyes, but they can see people's shadows clearly. The black shadows were like arrows......

"Shoot!"

Pei Min didn't want to shoot directly at the longing figure below, and one of them fell in response.

After Pei Min, the archers opened their bows and shot at the black shadow. In the face of dense shadows, where do you need to aim? Random archery is enough to kill.

After a round of vigorous shooting, more than 200 Tibetan soldiers fell to the ground tragically.

The wind and sand quickly dispersed, and Pei Min suddenly found that there was a special general in the enemy formation opposite, who was wearing ring lock armor, the armor was very gorgeous, and the armor leaves on the left part of the front chest were actually gold and silver plates, shining in the sun.

The ring lock armor is one of the thirteen armors of the Tang Dynasty, which was introduced to China from the Western Regions. Because the Tang Dynasty fought many foreign wars, the opponents were either nomads or fishing and hunting peoples, and they were all good at shooting. Ringlock armor, which is good at defending against arrows, is extremely popular, and has been specially improved to have a wide variety.

Pei Min used to be a member of the military department and served in the treasurer's department. Although he did not officially join the company, he was transferred from the dragon to the imperial history platform. But before the coup d'Γ©tat, he still specially understood the duties of the treasurer of the military department. The treasurer is responsible for the management of weapons and armor, and has a certain understanding of ring lock armor.

The ring lock armor on the Tubo generals was the style used by the generals of the Tang Dynasty. No matter how the other party got it, it must be a big deal.

Pei Min did not hesitate, the ape arm was stretched and flexed, pulled into a full moon, and shot the arrow.

Pei Min is more sophisticated than before, and within a hundred steps, this long arrow flies out, and the arrow is so fierce that it is like Xue Ne's original magic arrow.

Carnegie only felt a sharp murderous aura coming towards him, and before he could guess what the reason was, the sharp arrow broke through the sea of people and stabbed him in the throat...... The ring lock armor does have the effect of "arrows cannot penetrate", but it does not cover the weak point of the throat.

Carnegie opened his mouth, couldn't say a word, and fell to the ground.

"Damn!"

In view of the lack of soldiers in Jincheng, Qili Xu specially followed the tried and tested siege tactics of the original Garqin Mausoleum, and suppressed it with archery. But he didn't want to break the sand like this, and he was so tired that his love would be shot before the formation, so he roared angrily and shouted: "Press up, press up!" Ascend to the city! ”

Since it is not skillful, then come hard.

Taking advantage of the difficulty of the soldiers of the city to come out and shoot arrows vertically, they raised their shields, quickly and methodically erected numerous ladders, and began to climb upward; Another forty or fifty men pushed two siege carts made of large wooden stakes, and slowly approached from a distance under the shelter of several layers of thick cowhide.

"One group of archers retreated to rest, and the second group of archers and the right and left sides shot down the city...... Throwers and pole rejectors come forward to defend against the enemy. Pei Min saw that Tubo had changed his tactics and changed his defensive plan at the first time.

In these days when Tubo was preparing for the war, he discussed with the Tang army officers and soldiers how to deal with the attack and defense. Although the Tang army is not strong in fighting spirit due to military reasons, Jincheng has their fathers and villagers and their own families, in order to protect the safety of their families, the defending army now only hates themselves for not training seriously at the beginning, and they are particularly serious about Pei Min's temporary explanation.

As soon as his order was given, the soldiers moved without hesitation.

The archers retreated, and two teams of archers fired left and right.

The throwers held up rolling stones and sassal logs and threw them at the soldiers under the city, and the approaching siege vehicles were their main targets. The pole rejector skillfully supported the ladder, and overturned the ladder that was high on the city wall one by one. Hundreds of Tibetan soldiers fell from a height, and some fell to the ground, unable to get up for a while; Some smashed on others, and several people collided together; Others were falling on the blades of others, and their bodies were stabbed into holes, and they fell to the ground screaming miserably.

Pei Min was in charge of the overall situation, looking at the ladder over there that did not support in time, and shot to death the soldiers who were about to climb the city tower.

The battle lasted only half an hour, and the lives of more than 1,000 soldiers had been buried up and down the towers......

It was the first time for Kilixu to experience such a tragic siege, even though he had long been accustomed to life and death, he couldn't help but feel stunned in his heart, and remembered a famous saying in "The Art of War": Attack the city for the bottom, attack the heart for the top!

Even if you know that the siege is fierce, you can't imagine that under the command of the other party, in half an hour, more than 1,000 soldiers have been killed, and not a single soldier on your side jumped onto the city.

Thinking of the information transmitted to him in the city, it was a young man who was less than twenty years old who affected the overall situation, and a trace of fierceness flashed in his eyes, such a powerful role must not be retained. Once Jincheng City is broken, kill Pei Min first!

With this in mind, Qili Xu saw that the siege car had been smashed by the rolling stones and sasswood, waved his hand again, and ordered someone to transport the siege car up, and by the way, he increased the army by 5,000 troops, continued to exert pressure, and at the same time replaced the soldiers who had fought hard for half an hour in the first wave to rest.

Jincheng is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and there is no shortage of trees around it, and these days, he has built enough siege equipment to use it without skimpiness.

Pei Min is very steady, and his command is like his sword, precise, fast and steady.

His people also stepped into the realm of sword competition with others, without distractions, and constantly issued different orders with the changes in the battle situation, from morning to night, from the rising sun to the sunset, and the nine waves of Tubo offensive were suppressed.

The continuous attacks made him unable to eat a mouthful of food, and he barely drank water to quench his thirst.

The beginning was stress-free, he commanded well, and the soldiers coped with it decently. But as time passed, the disadvantage of few soldiers gradually manifested, and fighting under the scorching sun, the physical strength of the soldiers was consumed extremely quickly. Action, gradually following the instructions.

As for Pei Min, he had already abandoned the bow and arrow: bending the bow and shooting arrows was too laborious. In order to preserve his physical strength, as long as the Tibetan soldiers did not go up to the city wall, he tried to avoid doing it himself, so as not to get tired and damage the overall situation......

Suddenly!

The Tubo soldiers landed on a large scale without reason, and one by one, the agile Tubo soldiers, like monkeys, jumped onto the city.

They had no weapons in their hands, but an iron shield, forming a defensive line with each other, squeezing the space of the Tang army and covering the Tubo soldiers behind them to enter the city.

"The city is going to be broken."

There was a cheer from outside the city!

Kili Xu also laughed loudly, but before the laughter lasted thirty breaths, he saw two warriors dragging their bloody tails and falling from the city.

One after another!

After a few efforts, all the warriors who had just ascended the city were turned into corpses and thrown off the city wall.

"This?" Kilixu couldn't say a word.

The Tibetans were good at cavalry warfare, and in order to deal with the siege, they specially trained a special siege force to fight in the city. He cunningly did not arrange the siege troops at the first time, but chose to make a sudden attack when the Tang army was physically exhausted. Seeing that he has achieved success in one fell swoop, he doesn't want to stand strong but suck ......
