Liang Zai is a man with an ordinary figure and an ordinary appearance, and he can be valued by Feng Changqing because he is diligent in his work, and he has gradually accumulated merit from the head of a team holding grain to the guard and capture envoy, and he is in charge of the most important military town in the four towns, which is the gateway of Qiuzi.

At this time, the Tang defenders in the city were all his soldiers, and several warlords and town generals stood behind him, observing the movements of the Tubo people outside the city without blinking.

It's been almost an hour since the last time the enemy attacked.

"Damn, the Tubo people don't want to die, we also have to follow the melon fall, a certain person, in less than half an hour, there will be no thirty percent, so if you continue to fight, one day should be gone."

"Who says it's not, occupying the capital of other people, how can people not die hard, their Zampu, but they are staring at it from outside the city."

"How many of us are there, how many people are in Tubo, if we fight it out, we may not be able to bear it, but if we really lose the city, what is our trip?"

......

These discussions from behind him made it difficult for him not to hear them, Liang Zai knew that the temperament of his subordinates was not aimed at the coach Feng Changqing, but someone else, but this person was actually not much different from Feng Shuai.

Among these voices, he never heard a Yongliang accent, and he couldn't help but say hello.

"Renjie, do you have a lot of casualties there?"

Ma Lan was not surprised, and replied: "Twelve were killed, more than half of them were injured, and the Han people who guarded it worked together to ensure that the city wall was not lost, and their casualties were ...... Some are big. ”

"Don't you have anything else in mind?"

"When soldiers fight, what the officials say, how the subordinates fight, how can there be immortals, don't look at us a lot of deaths, the Tubo people are even more miserable, this battle, they are elite, the loss is at least three times that of us, and then fight a few battles, who fights first, and has to say two, I don't believe it, they can afford it?"

"Did you hear it all?" Liang Zai said approvingly: "Ma Lao Er is right, let's send troops to fight, that is, pin our heads to the waistband of our trousers, and go back alive, God will reward your face, and if you can't go back, that's also fate, fight with fate?" Is your face bigger than the sky? ”

"I know what you want to say, Gorou has come to this point, he fought with his life, in the past few months of hard work, there are few good parts of the skin and flesh of his body, and the people under his hands have almost changed a stubble, who dares to disagree? Instead of talking here, it is better to think about it, how to defend this city, what is there when it is defended? Do you still need to say something? ”

"You guys, you actually think about the benefits of others, he wants to make a fortune seriously, will he not want to be marshal? Feng Shuai won't think about us, it's all pig brains. ”

His words made everyone behind him stop talking, and their expressions were all sneering, the capital of the Tubo people, not even a living person could be seen, those things that had been accumulated for more than a hundred years, anyone would have an idea, the rumors in the army were not a day, but no one dared to say it clearly, they could only chew their tongues behind their backs.

Wealth is moving, not to mention the wealth of the country!

When Liu Ji came to the city, he saw such a scene, those generals greeted him, and then retreated, Liang Zai turned around and greeted him affectionately.

"Didn't you say that you had a day off today, with your master, a certain family, and Yang Envoy Jun here, are you still afraid that the Tubo people will come in?"

"So that the king may know that when he wakes up, there is nothing to do, and he is a little idle, so he will come and take a look, and with you here, the safety of the city should be fine."

Liu Ji knew that he was Feng Changqing's confidant and favorite general, so he naturally wouldn't hold it up, besides, people were also helping him, and he had to accept this affection.

The two stood side by side, the scene outside the city was the same as a few days ago, there were dead Tubo corpses everywhere, the city had been cleaned up by the Han people, the strange thing was that the camp of the Tubo people was a little quiet, and the horn had not sounded for a long time.

According to Tian Zhen's description, the previous offensive should have been quite fierce, the Tubo people have invested so much, if they can't keep up with the follow-up, wouldn't it be in vain, both of them were a little puzzled, at this moment, the horn outside the city suddenly sounded again, and it was unusually urgent.

Liang Zai's face changed, and he immediately issued an order: "All armaments are ready to fight, ready to engage the enemy." ”

Liu Ji beside him shook his head: "No, they are not attacking the city, but taking precautions." ”

At this time, Liang Zai also saw the abnormality, because if it was a siege, a team of men and horses would be discharged from the direction of the big camp, but the horn sounded for a long time, and there was still no movement in the direction of the front, and the two couldn't help but glance at each other.

What are the Tibetans guarding against? It stands to reason that Geshuhan's army would have to wait another two days before it could arrive, and this was still calculated according to the fact that they would send troops immediately after receiving the news.

In the camp outside the city, Chide Zuzan was also waiting for news, just like him, the group of courtiers behind him were all worried about Zhongzhong, the strength of the Tubo people was basically all here, and the people who came could only be enemies.

Dazarugon took the rest of the Praetorian Guards to investigate, and at the same time ended the siege process, he was even a little glad that the Tang reinforcements finally came, and he finally didn't have to fill the moats with human lives.

It's just strange that the direction of the alarm is to the east of Daying, not Qinghai.

He still didn't dare to slack off, the elite division directly under Zampu behind him, even in the battle in Qinghai, had never broken his muscles and bones, but in the siege earlier today, he lost nearly half of his men and horses, and his heart trembled.

For the attackers, there is no difference between being wounded and being killed in battle, because if the walls cannot be captured, those who are wounded will not be able to come back at all.

Zampu's heart is too ruthless, not only to others, but also to himself, he has exhausted the Praetorian Guard, what can he do to suppress the resistance of the elites?

At this time, I don't think much about it, the crisis has united all the people together, and the best result of taking refuge in the Tang people is just to be assigned to a remote state city to be a city side, let the Tang people call people at any time, and pay tribute from time to time, rather than being humiliated like that, it is better to let go of your hands and feet to fight, and maybe you can fight for a future.

The team of nearly 5,000 people, divided into several roads, passed through the large camp, and in the eyes of those ordinary herdsmen, it still had to discharge a majestic military appearance, and the vast camp that stretched for hundreds of miles almost reached the edge of the mountain, however, the movement from there made everyone's hearts uneasy, even the cattle, sheep and horses were irritable with their hooves to plow the grass, as if they had a premonition of something.

Dazarugon urged the horses to gallop all the way, and as he approached the edge of the camp, the sound from that direction became clearer and clearer, the "rumbling" sound caused by the hooves of countless horses, and even more terrifying, it was another sound that was caught in it and remembered all the time.

"Moo!"

His face couldn't help but change, because this voice was not from ordinary beasts, but from Tianzhu people.

War Elephants!
