Chapter 953: The Inner City Will Be Broken The Tang Army is finally here

After receiving the commander's order, all the rebels immediately fell into a state of extreme madness and bloodthirstiness, and they accelerated more and more, rushed towards the inner city.

Soon, after rushing over the distance of ten paces, the rebels who rushed up immediately joined the defenders who were strangled and fought with the rudimentary fortifications.

"Brothers, the rebels are attacking, let us fight to the death with them, we must defend the inner city!"

On the southern wall, Tulubaihu's face twisted, he drew his sword, pointed it straight into the air, and roared in the loudest voice.

After shouting, Gu Shihan, who had not healed from the wounds on his body, led his soldiers and the rebels who rushed up, and immediately became a group.

At the gap between the north and south city walls, such a temporary fortification could not stop the attack of the rebels at all, and a spear and a broadsword, through the fortifications, stabbed the defenders behind the archers, killing the defenders The archers screamed again and again, and kept falling.

For a while, the clanging sound of swords slashing, the popping sound of swords and guns piercing into the human body, the dull sound of slashing armor, and the screams of the soldiers on both sides of the attack and defense dying were mixed together, and it was shocking to hear.

Pity these defender archers, who were originally long-range troops, but now they have to fight to the death with the fully armed and armored rebels with more than just a waist sword, and the tragic situation can be imagined.

Rao was so, but the defenders still did not retreat. Because everybody knows that if you hold on, you can live, and if you take a step back, you will surely die.

More rebels in the back, trampling on the broken corpses everywhere, still roaring wildly, rushed towards the opening in front of them, as if their lives were worthless and insignificant. The faces of each of the rebels were full of fanatical and bloodthirsty looks, as if the only value of their existence was to kill all the defenders guarding this gap and occupy all the inner city of Lhasa. And for this goal, no matter how big the death and injury are, it is not a problem.

This is an extremely cruel war of attrition, the Tang and Qing sides fought desperately and bloodily, the soldiers of the two armies fought selflessly, the clanging sound of swords chopping each other, the popping sound of spears entering the flesh, the porphyry sound of cutting bones, and the tragic death of dying soldiers, resounded and made people's hearts palpitate. At this time, the battle situation began to show a dog-tooth pattern again, but after all, the rebels were strong, and on the whole, they still had more and more the upper hand.

Doesn't that mean that the defenders now have no other way but to let these long-range soldiers and horses engage in hand-to-hand combat with the rebels?

The rebels already have a huge advantage in strength, and if they can only use these ranged forces to fight the rebels in close combat, it can be said that the defenders are basically defeated.

If this kind of battle continues, perhaps, it will not be long before the defenders will be wiped out.

Could it be that this inner city of Lhasa is the place where he is buried......

A huge chill spread from Tulubaihu's back, making him shiver.

Standing at the head of the city, Tulubaihu looked at the dense rebel army, with overwhelming momentum, banners like forests, dazzling swords and guns, and roars like thunder, and once again attacked the inner city of Vladivostok, raging and rampant, and his face was almost colder and more resolute than steel.

Tulubaihu knew that the battle that would determine the fate of Lhasa Fort was finally about to begin.

At this moment, in his heart, he suddenly did not have the feeling of wanting to fight with blood before the battle, but had an inexplicable feeling of looking down on everything and accepting fate.

For a time, his heart was like an old monk in his mind, without joy or sorrow.

Perhaps, this is what is called, it should come, it will always come.

Since this is a battle of fate, since you must decide your final fate here, then, let everything come, you will fight, I will fight!

"The whole army should pay attention, according to the pre-plan, go all out to defend the inner city, and all the soldiers of the army will live and die with this inner city!"

"Order!"

While the defenders of the city were fully prepared for the two gaps, the rebels were already divided into two parts, one to attack the gap with all their might, and the other to re-climb the siege ladder and take the inner city wall.

Since the defenders were fully prepared for the gap, and there were no more troops to stop or delay the rebels from attacking the city, they came all the way to the city wall without hindrance, and then, with a crackling sound, at least thirty siege ladders were leaned against the two frozen walls of the east and west that shone with silver light, and immediately, countless rebels began to climb up the ladder like ants on the trees.

Seeing these rebel soldiers climbing up like ants, Tulubaihu's heart tightened to the extreme, and his heart ached to the extreme.

Of course, he knew that if the rebels were allowed to climb to the top of the city, the battle would be fiercer than ever. It's just that he doesn't have any extra troops in his hands, so what can he do but sit back and watch them climb?

The taste of being passively beaten is always the most uncomfortable and unforgettable.

Tulubaihu was helpless, and was about to give the order for the remaining archers at the head of the city to venture to shoot intensively at the enemy troops who were climbing up, but unexpectedly, the rebel archers who were eyeing the city had already taken action in advance and began to throw a large number of arrows at the entire city wall.

The collective projectile of nearly 20,000 rebels, dense with arrows, emitting a crisp scream, like a flock of birds released by death, swooped down on the defending archers guarding the city.

For a while, under the rain of rebel arrows, it was difficult for Tulubaihu's soldiers to even raise their heads, and they didn't even think about how to counterattack the rebels who were besieging the city.

Seeing his men suppressed again, Tulubaihamber was filled with anger and gritted his teeth.

The brutal battle for the city walls eventually and inevitably began.

The rebels soon climbed up the siege ladder to the top of the city.

The four walls of the inner city of Lhasa have finally been completely transformed into a flesh mill.

The corpses of countless rebels and the corpses of the dead defenders were mixed with each other, lying on the ground horizontally, and the blood of these enemies and me, who fought desperately before their deaths, finally flowed together. The rammed earth surface of the city wall, which had not yet been built, had become extremely viscous because of the overlapping flow of blood, and it was wet and slippery when stepped on, making it difficult to stand firmly.

Everyone could see that as more and more rebels entered the upper city, the rebels began to occupy a clear and visible advantage, while the defenders, who were already under-armed, were in an increasingly difficult situation.

"Brothers, hold on, this inner city must not be lost!"

Tulubaihu yelled at the defending soldiers who were fighting, his voice was grim and sad. As soon as he finished speaking, he also jumped into the rebel formation with his personal escorts, taking the lead and launching a fierce fight.

For a while, the clanging sound of swords slashing against each other, the popping sound of knives and guns piercing into the human body, and the screams of soldiers dying were stacked on top of each other, and the smell made people's hearts palpitate.

At this moment, a sharp spear stabbed with a sinister smile, and with a soft thud, it pierced Tulubaihu's neck in an instant.

Like a pricked hornet, he convulsed and fell. One hand pressed his neck, his mouth snorted, and the other hand was subconsciously grabbing forward, as if trying to catch the rebel soldier who had stabbed him.

Amid the screams of the guards around him, Tulubaihu could feel that life was rapidly draining away.

In a near-death state, he subconsciously looked into the distance, but the weather was dark and the wild fog was vast, and he couldn't see anything.

Just because you can't see it doesn't mean you don't exist.

Just when the rebels were desperately attacking the inner city, nearly 100,000 reinforcements led by Liu Wenxiu finally quietly appeared on the horizon at this moment.

At this most critical and extremely difficult moment, the reinforcements of the defenders finally arrived!

At this time, Liu Wenxiu had seen from a distance from the clairvoyant mirror that the defenders and the rebels were fighting frantically in the inner city, and seeing that the defenders were getting more and more at a disadvantage, Liu Wenxiu, the commander of the Tang Army who came to help, had a faint smile on his face.

Fortunately, I came in time, and finally arrived in time when the inner city was at its most critical.

The two tigers competed, the hunters benefited, and now the rebels and defenders had reached the time when the losses were the heaviest and the strength was the weakest, and their own arrival was really just right.

It's so cheap, it's a big deal!

Now, it's time to let these arrogant rebels in southern Tibet have a good taste of the might of the Tang Army's iron fist!

"Pass on my order, all 20,000 cavalry, immediately divided into two parts, immediately and forcefully assault the rebel headquarters outside Lhasa, and they must be defeated in one fell swoop!"

"Order!"

The wind roared, the heavy fog was vast, the iron horse Jinge, the 20,000 cavalry of the Tang and Tibetan coalition army, divided into two parts, left and right, like two black sharp knives, rushed towards the rebel headquarters outside Lhasa!

The moment of the decisive battle has finally arrived!

On the vast sandy ground, the two cavalry on both sides of the line, lined up in a wedge-shaped sharp formation on the left and right sides, like two huge and sharp black sharp blades, rushed towards the rebel headquarters that had no time to take precautions with Liu Wenxiu's order.

The horses' hooves rumbled, like countless huge drums, striking the cold and hard earth, and the ironclad forests were like countless shining lenses, reflecting the cold light of the dim and cold. Guns and swords were pointed, men and horses were one, and they rushed towards the unsuspecting rebels who were attacking the city with all their might.

As many as 20,000 cavalry of the Tang Army, using this vast heavy fog as a cover, attacked the rebels in their headquarters with tens of thousands of people, and the military momentum was amazing, like a hurricane rolling up from the flat ground, and the unstoppable fierce and ferocious momentum was enough to immediately turn any creature in front of it into powder.

Since its establishment, the Tang Army Iron Cavalry has won many victories and has never suffered defeat, and every cavalryman's heart is full of inexplicable glory and dignity.

Of course, among them, the most terrifying is the Xuanhu heavy armored cavalry with a combined weight of 530 kilograms.

With all the speed done to accelerate, the impact of the heavily armored Xuanhu Cavalry, which charged in a wedge-shaped battle formation, reached an almost terrifying state, and even against the rebels who were already in a tight formation, it would only be as easy as a knife cutting butter.

The slightly weaker Flying Harrier light cavalry and the rebel, Mongolian, Korean, and Japanese cavalry, although their impact power is much worse than that of the Xuanhu heavy cavalry, but such a wedge-shaped battle formation that is densely accelerated to a state of charge, its impact power is also not to be underestimated, and it is not too easy for those reserve rebels who are not ready in a scattered state.

Starting, accelerating, sprinting, the overwhelming sound of horses' hooves continued to rise, the Tang army was getting closer and closer to the rebel headquarters that was panicking, each cavalryman subconsciously slammed the horse's belly, the cold and sharp cavalry spear in his hand became more and more clenched, followed by the faster and faster entire Xuanhu heavy cavalry wedge-shaped army formation, and rushed towards the rebel formation in the distance.

"Oh no, my lord! You see, there are a large number of Tang cavalry in the north, divided into two places on the left and right, rushing towards our army! ”

"Huh?!"

When the two Tang cavalry rushed towards the rebel headquarters in Lhasa, Gamu, the leader of the rebel army in southern Tibet, who was directing the rebels to climb the siege ladder and storm the four city walls, could not believe his ears when he heard the news that his soldiers were attacking the Tang army cavalry in the north.

No way?

At this time when victory is in sight and his own soldiers and horses are about to achieve a complete victory, there will be rescue Tang cavalry to kill, which is too coincidental.

Soon, some soldiers hurriedly came to report, "Your Majesty, a large number of reinforcements from the Tang Army are coming from the north and are rushing straight towards Lhasa City!" ”

Gamu's face turned pale in an instant.

He jumped off his horse and yelled at the soldiers, "How is that possible?!" The soldiers and horses of the Tang Army, how could they not arrive early or late, but they arrived at this time! ”

"Your Majesty, this is the truth, it is true that the vanguard cavalry of the Tang Army, which has more than 20,000 people, has made an all-out assault on the headquarters of our army!"

After hearing this, Gamu only felt his head bang, as if it was about to explode all at once.

With that, his face contorted into an angry mass.

However, when he turned his head to look back and saw the large number of soldiers and horses in the distance, rushing towards the surging soldiers and horses, his mood suddenly fell straight to the bottom of the valley from mid-air.

He knew that the messenger was right, and that the reinforcements of the defenders had finally arrived at this critical moment.

What a damn bad luck!

The Tang Army didn't come early or late, but it came at the critical moment when he was about to win, which was a nightmare!

Gamu, who felt the ground trembling slightly, could clearly feel that a cold cold air rose from his back and quickly permeated his body.

What to do?

The defenders' cavalry came so suddenly, could they continue to fight?

No more.

If the Tang army attacked inside and outside, it would surely fail miserably. The current plan is to deal with the attacking Tang army first, which is still a proper strategy.

Gamu took a deep breath and hurriedly gave the order.

"Pass on the order of this king, and now immediately order the whole army to retreat, return to the main formation, and immediately form a formation on the spot to resist the Tang cavalry assault, there must be no mistake!"

"Obey!"
