Chapter 1255: Songzhou Crisis
Songzhou City.
Since the last time the Tang army went out of the city and retreated, Niu Jinda became very cautious.
For a long time after that, he only guarded Songzhou City, and he didn't have the slightest intention of going out of the city.
The Tang army was good at defending the city, and the ability of Tubo to attack the city was not very strong.
So the two sides were at a stalemate for a while.
However, with the arrival of the second route of soldiers and horses in Tibet, the number of soldiers and horses in Tibet increased to 100,000 at once.
100,000 soldiers and horses continued to attack the city, and the situation of the Tang army became more and more bad.
Songzhou City is very dangerous, as if it will be attacked by Tibetan soldiers and horses at any time.
Niu Jinda and his soldiers and horses kept defending day and night, but the more they kept defending, the more their strength weakened.
Their rest time became very short, and the short sleep made the soldiers very tired.
Early in the morning, Songtsen Gampo came to the city of Songzhou again with his soldiers and horses.
The Tibetan soldiers and horses look a little mighty and extraordinary.
In comparison, the Tang army on the city tower is a little tired, and the state of the entire army is not very good.
Songtsen Gampo glanced up at Niu Jinda, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Your Tang army can't hold on for long, as long as I fight to the death in Tubo today, this Songzhou City will be broken, but before that, Benzanpu wants to give you another chance, if you are willing to surrender to me in Tubo, give up this Songzhou City, I can spare your life, how about it?" ”
Songtsen Gampo was full of confidence, and it seemed that in his opinion, the destruction of Songzhou City was inevitable.
They won the Tibetans.
And Niu Jinda, who looked a little tired, suddenly laughed at this moment: "My Tang boy, I have always been hot-blooded, I never know what surrender is, you want to capture Songzhou City, unless you step on our body." ”
After Niu Jinda finished speaking, he shouted again: "Swear to defend Songzhou City to the death." ”
As he said this, the soldiers behind him hurriedly shouted.
"Swear to defend Songzhou City to the death."
"Swear to defend Songzhou City to the death."
“…………”
The soldiers of the Tang Army shouted angrily, and their momentum was suddenly shocked.
The entire Songzhou City seemed to have become indestructible all of a sudden.
The momentum was huge, Songtsan Gampo's eyebrows were slightly condensed, he didn't expect that it had reached such a point, and Tang Jun would still be so persevering.
However, then Songtsen Gampo showed a chuckle.
"Poor strength is poor strength, no matter how loud you shout, today, I want to capture your Songzhou City."
As he spoke, Songtsen Gampo waved his hand, and the Tubo soldiers and horses behind him swarmed towards Songzhou City.
They have been attacking here for a long time, and they are all a little familiar with the siege, so now they feel that the siege is much smoother than before.
Of course, the reason for this situation is also related to the fact that Tang Jun must have been much weaker before.
However, although the Tibetan soldiers and horses attacked the city quickly, the Tang army did not slack off at all.
"Kill ......"
After an angry shout, Niu Jinda led the Tang army to kill.
Arrows, boulders, all the tools they could find to defend the city. Now it's all coming in handy.
One after another, the Tibetan soldiers and horses were beaten down by them, but at the same time, they also suffered casualties.
The two sides kept killing like this, although the Tang army was very tired, but when they really killed, they also seemed to have a breath that would never relax.
Kill, kill.
The smell of blood soon spread in Songzhou City, and this smell seemed to be a little too strong to dissolve.
The battle continues, and the situation in Songzhou City is becoming more and more dangerous, as if it could be breached at any time.
But it can't be broken.
Time is slow, the sunset is approaching, and even the evening breeze is blowing here.
Cool evening breeze.
Songtsen Gampo stood under Songzhou City, looking at the Songzhou City that could be captured with more effort, but now he couldn't attack it no matter how hard he attacked, he couldn't help but frown.
"Damn, a small Songzhou City, can't we really take it, let me continue to send people to attack, whoever can capture Songzhou City first, Benzanpu will reward him with a thousand taels of silver, and give him a knight."
There must be brave men under the heavy reward, and after Songtsen Gampo was inspired in this way, those Tibetan soldiers rushed to kill more and more crazy.
Songzhou City is about to break.
Niu Jinda stood on top of the city tower and fought with the Tibetan soldiers and horses who rushed up.
Blood was sprayed everywhere, but Niu Jinda showed no intention of flinching.
As he said before, if you want to take Songzhou City, you have to step on their corpses.
"Kill ......"
The Tang army gritted their teeth and fought hard, even if there was only the last person left, the last drop of blood, they had to hold Songzhou City.
Dusk finally came, the temperature in Songzhou City dropped, and before you knew it, it was already autumn.
Tonight's night is not very good, and Tubo will not be able to attack it for a long time.
Songtsen Gampo looked at Songzhou City under a crescent moon, his face was a little pale, and his eyes were still unwilling.
If, if the sun sets another hour later, he will definitely be able to capture Songzhou City.
Unfortunately, the sun went down and night came, and their siege became very unfavorable, and if they continued to attack, their damage would be very serious.
If you want to capture Songzhou City, I'm afraid you can only wait for tomorrow.
After scolding in his heart, Songtsen Gampo could only withdraw his troops and fight again tomorrow.
The Tibetan soldiers and horses retreated in an orderly manner.
The crescent moon is new.
Niu Jinda stood on the city tower, and suddenly felt sore, but at the same time he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
The Tibetan soldiers and horses finally retreated, and although they might come to attack the city tomorrow, for them, this was a glimmer of life after all.
Nowadays, even if they only have a glimmer of life, they must grasp it tightly, only in this way can there be hope.
The Tibetan soldiers and horses retreated, and Niu Jinda immediately ordered people to start resting, and maybe there would be a more brutal battle tomorrow.
The soldiers were very tired, and when they returned, they quickly fell asleep.
But Niu Jinda did not rest, but supported his tired body, came to the big tent in the army, and called a group of generals.
"How long will it take for Qin Tian to get to us?"
With their strength, he was afraid that he would not be able to hold Songzhou City, so he could only hope for Qin Tian's soldiers and horses.
As long as Qin Tian's soldiers and horses came, they might be able to repel the Tibetans.
And the news that Qin Tian was coming here to rescue had already known about it a long time ago.
"If you go back to the general, it may take two days for Grandpa Qin's soldiers and horses to be able to rush to Songzhou City."
Niu Jinda's face froze slightly, and said, "In other words, we have to resist the enemy army for two more days, right?" ”
"Back to the general's words, yes."
