Zhao Ziliang knew very well that if it weren't for the cold winter wax moon, if it wasn't for the dawn of the ice and snow, if it weren't for the confrontation between the 30,000 Tubo army and Huangfu Weiming in Xiping Pavilion, it would be almost impossible for the Tang army to sneak attack Shibao City, the Tubo people were so vigilant, even if it was this extremely bad weather, the Tubo soldiers were still patrolling on the square platform, this time he was able to arrive here with his subordinates In addition to the weather, there was also a big fluke, this kind of luck is definitely not very common, missed today, He no longer wanted to climb the Stone Castle City so easily, and if he wanted to capture the Stone Castle City at a very small cost, he could only run a long distance and kill the Stone Castle City without alarming the defenders.

Where did Zhao Ziliang dare to hesitate, only to see that the position where the ridge and the Dafang platform met appeared here four Tubo spearmen, Zhao Ziliang immediately took out the whirling flying knife and threw it over, "hum", the four Tubo soldiers fell in response, and their heads all rolled to the ground, at this time he was pulling out his legs and rushing to the Dafang platform, waiting for the whirling knife to fly back, and two more Tubo people were eliminated He withdrew the whirling knife in his left hand, and swung the knife out of his right hand, and shouted at the same time: "Kill-"

The two Tubo soldiers who rushed over again were cut into four sections, and he had rushed to Dafangtai, and the slashing knife in his hand kept swinging out, and the Tubo soldiers were constantly cut to the ground, and the Tang soldiers behind him also rushed to Dafangtai in a steady stream.

"Dangdangdang······" Finding that someone was sneak attacking, there were Tibetan soldiers on the Dafang platform and began to ring the warning bell, and the bell echoed in the valley and spread far away.

The speed of the Tubo army has not been able to keep up with the speed of Zhao Ziliang's slashing, he is slashing and moving to the middle of the Dafang platform, the terrain of the Dafang platform is higher than the ridge path, the whole mountain top is roughly a mountain beam in the east-west direction, the mountain beam is about 50 meters long, about 10 to 15 meters wide, the two ends are slightly raised, slightly horseshoe-shaped, and the ridge path is roughly in a "T" shape, there is a high and one zhang rammed earth observation deck above the western height of the mountain beam, there are small platforms on both sides, and the cliff is under it, because it is late at night, you can't see the distance, Therefore, there were no sentinels on the lookouts.

In the middle of the mountain beam there is a row of stone houses, about seven houses, some large, some small, connected to each other without gaps, on the east side of the mountain beam there is an artificial stone platform, under which is a cliff.

As the battle began, more and more Tubo soldiers rushed out of the seven stone houses of different sizes with weapons, Zhao Ziliang led the Tang soldiers to kill the stone houses in the middle of Dafangtai, one by one, and the Tang soldiers behind him protected him from the left and right sides to prevent the Tubo soldiers from besieging him from the front and the left and right sides.

They are all small soldiers, generals who have no interests, Zhao Ziliang is extremely easy to slash and kill, and a few Tubo soldiers are cut to the ground with every step, and the Tang army pikemen on his side keep stabbing with spears.

At this moment, a large number of shouts and killings also came from the small square platform in the northwest direction, and Zhao Ziliang knew that Brehan had already led the third regiment of Tang Army soldiers to fight with the Tubo army on the small square platform.

The slashing knife in his hand kept waving and slashing, and a large amount of enemy blood was constantly splashed on his face and body, Zhao Ziliang was unconscious, and quickly advanced to a row of houses in the middle of Dafangtai, and a Tubo commander rushed out of the house with dozens of them to kill Zhao Ziliang.

Zhao Ziliang faced the Tubo commander, swung his knife and smashed away the axe from the other party, and shot back like lightning, seeing the other party rushing to the left shoulder and slashing the right rib, the whole person was cut into two pieces diagonally.

"Kill them all, and don't leave any of them!" Zhao Ziliang shouted after hacking the Tibetan commander to death, and the slashing knife in his hand swung faster, like a whirlwind, the Tubo soldiers in front of him were killed one after another, and the Tubo soldiers behind were so frightened that they retreated again and again.

After a while, all the Tubo soldiers in front of the stone house were killed, Zhao Ziliang led people to rush into the stone house again, and saw that more than a dozen Tubo soldiers hidden in the stone house were also killed, and when he came out with a chopping knife that kept dripping blood on the ground, the battle on the Dafang platform was over, and the nearly 300 soldiers deployed by the Tubo army here were all killed, and he alone killed nearly 200 people.

"Clean up the battlefield, see if there are any Tubo soldiers who are pretending to be dead or not dead, kill them all after finding them, peel off all the fur and clothes on the corpses that can keep them warm, and then throw the corpses off the cliff, and deploy sentries on the watchtower to stand guard on duty!" After Zhao Ziliang instructed the captain of the Fourth Regiment about these things, he took dozens of his troops and returned from the ridge path, passing through the small platform that had climbed up, and rushed over to the small square platform in the northwest direction where the battle was being fought.

When he rushed to the small square platform with 200 Tang troops, more than 100 Tubo soldiers on the small square platform also woke up, and they even slept in their clothes.

When Zhao Ziliang arrived with dozens of followers and a steady stream of Tang troops, the battle between the two sides on the small square platform had come to an end, and the Tubo army was only thirty or forty people left, but their resistance was still very tenacious, and the new force brought by Zhao Ziliang shortened the time for the end of the battle, and soon the battle on the small square platform was over, this is the sky began to slowly brighten, and soon it will be dawn, and the heavy snow in the sky still has no signs of stopping.

As soon as the battle here ended, Zhao Ziliang and the others heard a large number of shouts and killings on the road not far from the ancient camp fortress three miles to the south, and they knew that this was the 200 people of the first regiment who had ambushed the Tubo soldiers on the ancient camp who were about to come to reinforce, and the two sides fought by the Yaoshui River.

Where would the 100 Tubo troops who rushed to reinforce from the ancient Yingpan fortress think that there was an ambush on the side of the road, the white expanse, everywhere was knee-deep heavy snow, and the Tang army was wearing white cloaks, very camouflaged, even if it was close at hand, it was not found, when the Tang army rushed out of the roadside, the Tubo army blew up on the spot, most of the people were impacted and rolled down the Yaoshui River, the Tang soldiers chased down and slashed and slashed, and there were battles everywhere on the road and on the river.

However, with a cup of tea, the reinforcements of the Tubo soldiers were killed by the ambushed Tang army, most of them were killed, and a small number of Tubo soldiers saw that the general situation had gone to drop their weapons and turned around and fled, and the Tang soldiers immediately launched a pursuit, and soon chased and killed these people.

After ambushing this Tubo army, there were no more Tubo soldiers left in the ancient camp fortress, the captain of the first regiment of the Tang Army immediately led the soldiers to kill the ancient camp fortress, when rushing to the ancient camp, there were only a dozen old, weak, sick and disabled Tubo soldiers left in the fortress, and the Tang army soldiers were unceremonious, without the slightest mercy to cut down these Tubo soldiers.

The captain of the first regiment wiped the blood off his face and instructed a soldier next to him: "Go and report to the general, just say that we have taken the ancient camp, and all the Tubo troops in the ancient camp have been killed by us, and our army has killed twenty-two people!" ”

"No!"

It didn't take long for the sound of shouting and killing to come from the northwest of Shibao City, the distance was a little farther, the sound was not very clear, and this shouting and killing sound did not last long before disappearing, when the sky was completely bright, the captain of the second regiment also sent someone to report to Zhao Ziliang that they had taken Dingrong City, which was seven miles northwest of the city.

This Dingrong city is located on a hill, the mountain is more than 60 zhang high, the north and south of the city are 13 to 20 zhang wide, the southeast is 27 zhang long, the city wall is one zhang three feet wide, one zhang high, the place in the city is not big, so only more than 100 people are stationed, this time a hundred people were sent to reinforce, but I did not expect to be ambushed, and when the captain of the second regiment arrived, there were less than 20 people left in the punishment, the siege began immediately, although there was no siege equipment, but the city wall was really not high, nearly 200 people besieged this small fortress, Less than twenty people in the fortress could not defend all four walls at all, and some Tang troops seized the opportunity to climb the city walls, and the battle ended quickly.

Take the acropolis of these two stone fort cities, even if the stone fort city is really captured, and there are two small fortresses in the direction of Linqiang County, namely Sukel small city and Chahansu small city, both of which are garrisoned by a hundred Tubo troops each, these small cities were built by the Tang army in that year, in order to defend the stone fort city and form a complete defense system with the stone fort city.

After hearing that Guyingpan and Dingrong City had been taken, Zhao Ziliang and Brehan were both relieved, and Brehan asked, "General, do you want to take Sukel City and Chahan Sucheng together in one go?" ”

Zhao Ziliang shook his head when he heard this and said: "No, although these two fortresses are not as dangerous as Shibao City, it is not so easy to capture them in broad daylight, and now our army has only more than 900 people, and we still mainly defend Shibao City, Guyingpan and Dingrong City, as for this Sukel City and Chahansu City, when the news reaches the Tubo army camp, the Tubo army will inevitably be in chaos, and then General Huangfu only needs to seize the opportunity to wave his army to attack, Mangbuzhi will inevitably be defeated, and the two small cities of Sukel and Chahansu will naturally be self-defeating,, We don't need to waste our troops in vain to take these two small fortresses now. By the way, the news that we took Shibao City, I'm afraid that General Huangfu doesn't know yet, but Liu Gong and Ge Shuhan have already led the army from Xincheng to Changning County, and General Huangfu will inevitably send someone to contact him, he must have known at this time that General Ben is going south, Brehan, and sent General Ben's cronies Hu to go to Xiping Pavilion from Xining County (now Huangzhong County) to tell General Huangfu that Shibao City has been taken by our army, as long as the army of Mangbuzhi on the opposite side is in chaos, ask him to immediately wave his army to attack, and Mangbuzhi will definitely be defeated! ”

At this time, Xining County was in the hands of the Tang army, but the Tang army could not attack Tubo from Xining County, just because the location of the entire military defense system of Shibao City was held on the main road from Xining County to Tubo State.

Brehan immediately arched his hand and said: "Understand, the subordinates will arrange it!" (To be continued.) )
