Chapter 1239: Songzhou Stalemate
Niu Jinda began to retreat to the city with his soldiers and horses.
At this time, a Mo Dao team was facing the enemy and killing the past.
Their task now is to cover the retreat of the rest of the troops into the city.
The Mo knife team came out, with a thousand powers, which was irresistible.
They were like a wall, blocking the attacking Tibetan soldiers and horses.
Mo knife swung over again and again, and the Tubo soldiers and horses who rushed over were quickly cut down.
The Modao team was magnificent, although there were few of them, but they stopped one after another of Tubo soldiers and horses.
After Songtsen Gampo saw the power of the Tang Junmo Sword Team, his eyes suddenly condensed.
"I really didn't expect that Tang Jun's Mo Dao team would be so powerful."
However, although he was a little shocked by the power of the Mo Dao team, the number of Mo Dao team was too small, so Songtsen Gampo did not have the slightest intention of retreating because of this.
Not only that, but he was even crazier.
"Kill, kill me."
The roar sounded on the battlefield, and when the Tibetan soldiers and horses heard it, they killed them like madmen.
And just when the Tubo soldiers and horses were frantically killing, Niu Jinda finally entered Songzhou City with a large army.
"Let the Modao team come back."
When the order was given, the Modao team retreated, and after retreating to the moat, they turned around and followed into Songzhou City.
The gates were closed, and above the towers, sharp arrows were still firing.
Although Tubo is strong, if he wants to capture Songzhou City at this time, he can't.
"Damn!"
Songtsen Gampo felt that they had missed a good opportunity, and now that the Tang army had retreated into the city, they could only capture Songzhou City if they wanted to destroy the Tang army, but they were not very good at attacking the city.
"Retire and fight again tomorrow."
The Tibetan soldiers and horses retreated to the barracks.
Watching the Tibetan soldiers and horses retreat, Niu Jindahe finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, he summoned a group of generals.
"Everyone, I didn't expect Tubo to be so strong, we went out of the city to fight with them, obviously not an opponent, what to do next, do you have a good plan?"
The generals looked at each other.
Most of them are fierce generals and pioneers in wars, and it is okay for them to use soldiers to fight, but it is a little difficult for them to give advice.
"General, now that we are in this situation, it is not good for us to go out of the city, so we can only hold on to Songzhou City."
This sentence is equivalent to not saying it, and now everyone knows that sticking to Songzhou City is the only choice they can make.
However, what Niu Jinda really wanted was that someone could come up with a good way for them to repel the Tibetan soldiers.
They don't want to defend the city, but want to defeat the enemy, and only by defeating the enemy can they bring them a sense of achievement.
But there is clearly no better way for them to do it.
Niu Jinda didn't have either, so after thinking about it, Niu Jinda could only sigh lightly and said: "Tell me to go down, strictly guard the city gate, and give me all the methods that can defend the city." ”
The Tang army was preparing to defend the city, and after Songtsen Gampo returned to the barracks, he was quite happy.
"Zampu, Datang is nothing more than that, if you fight with us, their Tang knives can't help us."
"Yes, yes, Datang is not as powerful as imagined, it shouldn't be difficult to destroy them."
"Yes, after capturing Songzhou City, my Tubo can go straight to Chang'an City."
“…………”
Excited, excited, these officials in Tibet, tribal leaders or something, are very excited, after this battle, they suddenly despise Datang a little, and feel that Datang is not very powerful.
Only Songtsen Gampo frowned slightly.
"Datang's soldiers and horses are indeed not as strong as they imagined, but their Modao team is indeed powerful, and it is not easy for us to really defeat them."
Saying that, Songtsen Gampo glanced at everyone and said, "Since we are here, we are going to defeat the Tang Dynasty and capture their Songzhou City, so tomorrow, we will attack the city, prepare all our siege weapons, and tomorrow, capture Songzhou City." ”
Yes, Songtsen Gampo felt that Datang's Modao team was very powerful, but even so, he was still full of fighting spirit and confidence, as long as they could capture Songzhou City, they would definitely be able to deal a heavy blow to Datang.
He felt that Datang was too invincible, but in fact, Datang was far less powerful than they imagined.
------------------
Early the next morning, Songtsen Gampo came to the city of Songzhou again with his soldiers and horses.
This time, the Don army did not go out of the city.
Not only did they not leave the city, but they were still waiting on the city tower, waiting for the arrival of the Tibetan soldiers and horses.
Songtsen Gampo glanced up at Niu Jinda, and a disdainful chuckle appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Datang is nothing more than that, why, I lost a game yesterday, and now I don't dare to go out of the city to fight?"
Songtsen Gampo is humiliating the Tang Dynasty, he wants to provoke Niu Jinda and force Niu Jinda to go out of the city to fight with them, but Niu Jinda is still a more rational person, and he will not be desperate because of a few words from Songtsen Gampo.
He just smiled and said: "What nonsense, if you have the ability, you will come to capture my Songzhou City, if you can't capture it, then you can't do it." ”
Hearing this, Songtsen Gampo's eyebrows condensed slightly, and then he didn't say much, and waved his hand directly: "Kill!" ”
At the sound of an order, a group of Tibetan soldiers and horses rushed over, and the Tang army immediately suppressed it with sharp arrows.
Sharp arrows covered the entire sky, and the entire front of Songzhou City seemed to turn dark.
The Tibetan soldiers and horses that rushed in front fell one after another, but soon, the archers on the Tibetan side also began to shoot arrows.
The Tang army suppressed, and the Tibetan covered it.
The two sides went back and forth to kill, and each suffered casualties.
The fighting continued, and in the afternoon, the weather was a little uncomfortable.
The Tibetan soldiers and horses had already lost a lot, but they still failed to capture Songzhou City.
"Zampu, if we continue to kill like this, we will have to suffer serious losses, so it is better to withdraw our troops for the time being, and wait for us to make good siege equipment, and then attack the city."
The Tang army is still very good at defending the city, and now that Songzhou City is there, their soldiers and horses do not have to be much less in Tibet, so if they want to defend Songzhou City, it is naturally not a difficult thing.
At least not very difficult for now.
Songtsen Gampo frowned, and after thinking for a moment, he finally nodded: "Mingjin retreats." ”
The Tibetan soldiers and horses retreated, and soon, the sunset came, and the corpses outside Songzhou City were illuminated by the sunset, which became more and more shocking.
These corpses, some of them are from Tibet, and some of them are from the Tang Army.
Niu Jinda looked at the Tubo soldiers and horses outside Songzhou City, and breathed a sigh of relief again.
"Go to the capital quickly and ask the Holy Lord to send soldiers and horses."
Niu Jinda felt a pressure, if there was no backup, they were afraid that they would not be able to repel the Tubo soldiers and horses.
