Li Dongsheng returned to the firearms battalion, and his subordinates also surrounded him: "General, what does the chief manager say?" Did you leave the siege task to us? ”

"Yes, I made a suggestion to the chief manager, and we will be the main force of the siege the day after tomorrow. Do you have faith? Li Dongsheng looked at their expectant eyes and nodded.

"Great, I knew it would be today." Xi Junmai laughed: "My lord, I want to be the first group of siegers." ”

"Young master, I'm going too." This is Daniel Zhang.

"General, although we have a personal grudge, I am a soldier of the firearms battalion, and you want a bowl of water!" The high-level trial has made meritorious contributions, and his face is gone.

"It's a pity that the people of the Judge Advocate General's Office can't climb the city wall at the first time, alas, the opportunity to make meritorious service was robbed by them." Yu Chi Baolin envied everyone.

Li Dongsheng looked at these guys, and he was speechless in his heart: "Could it be that those Tubo soldiers are all dead?" Are you not afraid? ”

"Afraid of hair? When the time comes, we will wave our hands and throw dozens or hundreds of grenades first, and there will be no one on the city wall. ”

"Yes, General, we have seen the power of this grenade, think about it, those Tubo people are barbarians, they must not have seen this thing, and when the time comes, the ghost will not be scared and cry wolf, we just need to cut it with a knife. We have taken the credit for this. ”

Early the next morning, a huge coffin was carried into the camp of the firearms battalion, and Xi Jun bought a few of them to look at each other, what kind of shape is this? Could it be that Li Dongsheng is going to carry the coffin into battle? It shouldn't be, he's so young and has a wife and children, and this guy doesn't look like such a desperate person.

Some soldiers of the firearms battalion also had a lot of discussions, and only some of them said with big hearts: "If I can have such a good coffin when I die, then I am willing to die." ”

"Bah, what are you talking about? What doesn't die. ”

"What is the general doing with this thing, it's really unlucky."

Then Daniel Zhang and his soldiers carried the coffin into the tent, and then they stood outside the tent and did not allow anyone to approach. Li Dongsheng stayed in the tent for a day, and did not come out until evening, when the soldiers of the firearms battalion saw Xi Junmai and Wei Chi Baolin sending things inside in batches. When the coffin was lifted out, Li Dongsheng kept shouting: "Be careful, don't bump it." Damn. ”

"Why didn't the Tang army attack the city today? Is there something wrong? The guy who spoke was a Tibetan man of about forty, with curled hair and a beard, but not the oily and glowing beard of the Tibetans, and he was very neatly combed.

"Back to the Prime Minister, yesterday the Tang army attacked the city and found that they couldn't take it, so I'm waiting for reinforcements." It turned out that this person was the great minister of Tubo, Lu Dongzan, and he was the absolute henchman of Songtsen Gampo.

"It's the past that I said this, but I'm invincible in Tubo across the plateau, but I'm still a little weak in the face of Datang." Lu Dongzan frowned and said, "Just look at the methods they used to attack the city yesterday, they are all unheard of by us. And if you look at their weapons and armor, they are much better than ours. ”

"Of course, the Han people have always been much better than us. But didn't Zampu ask the Tang Dynasty to marry the princess, and when the time came, let the Tang Emperor marry the craftsmen who smelted, as well as the books and farmers who farmed, anyway, we will let them accompany whatever we lack in Tibet, haha. "This general is estimated to be also a close confidant of Songtsen Gampo, and he knows a little bit about the inside story.

"Zamp's idea is good, but now we have to be strong. Let Datang know that we are very good at Tibet, and then I will go to Chang'an to propose marriage. Lu Dongzan stood up: "It's up to you now, Gan Naihai, as long as we hold Songzhou and return it to Datang when I go to Chang'an to marry the princess, then we will be eighty percent sure." ”

"Please rest assured, with me, Songzhou will definitely be solid." Gan Naihai patted his chest and said.

"Then Songzhou City will be handed over to you, I will go back to Lhasa first, and I will come back to Chang'an in a month." Lu Dong praised: "I'll leave now, you must be careful." The Tang people are treacherous and like to use tricks, if they really can't do it... Kill all the Han people in the city. ”

When the morning glow was full, the Tang army camp outside Songzhou City began to be lively. Wash and eat. The soldiers of the firearms battalion already knew that they were going to attack the city today, and they were all a little excited in their words, they were originally elites, and they had been trained by Li Dongsheng for a few months, and when they were full of energy, they thought about going to cut people with knives.

"My lord, if you give me this task of leading people to attack the city, I will definitely be the first to climb the city wall and give us a strong name for the firearms battalion." Xi Junmai has been pestering Li Dongsheng since last night, and he has to be the captain of this siege team.

"Okay, okay, I'm afraid of you." Li Dongsheng had no choice but to be pestered by him: "You have to remember that you are the captain of the firearms battalion and the riding instructor, and there will be many places to use you in the future, so you must protect yourself." ”

"Okay, just wait for my good news!" Xi Jun bought Li Dongsheng's letter and went back to prepare excitedly. Li Dongsheng looked at his back and smiled, this guy is very jumpy, but he really uses his brains to fight, so letting him be this stormtrooper can be regarded as making the best use of his talents.

After breakfast, the Tang army began the siege again. As the day before yesterday, in the sound of war drums, it was still the crossbow arrows and stone throwing carts that appeared first, and the rain of arrows and boulders in the sky opened the prelude to the war, and then in the earth-shattering shouts of killing, the Tang soldiers rushed towards the city wall with cloud ladders.

Gan Naihai went to the city wall to take a look, and found that the Tang army's siege tactics were the same as last time, so he put his mind at ease: "The Tang army is known as invincible in the world, and I think it's just like that. ”

Hearing his boss say this, all the soldiers were excited, and they helped the old man raise sheep and cattle, but he really didn't eat much meat, Tubo is serfdom, they are just the property of the master, the same as cattle and sheep, but they are also used to it, and the whole of Tibet is like this.

Looking at the fighting up and down the city wall, Li Dongsheng said to Xi Junmai: "Remember, you just follow Zuo Wuwei's people, and then go to the bottom of the city wall to light the grenade and throw it on the wall, and when you hear the explosion, you will climb up the ladder, and if there are still Tubo people who continue to throw it up, until they are all stupid when they are blown up, go up and kill them directly, and they will basically succeed." ”

"It's as simple as that?" Xi Junmai didn't believe it.

"yes, it's that simple." Li Dongsheng nodded. Isn't it that simple to use thermal weapons to reduce the dimensionality and fight cold weapons? After thinking for a while, he said: "Wait for the north gate to go into it, you pay attention to yourself." Throw the grenade far away, don't blow up your own people. ”
