Chapter 473: Great Joy

The Tang army all retreated, withdrew to the position before they attacked Qingtang City, and continued to surround Qingtang City.

Suddenly the enemy withdrew, and it was still under the condition that they had a great advantage, and the Tang army did this, and even the Tubo people were blinded.

"Did the Don Army really retreat?"

The Tibetan people who had just rushed to the city wall to support the Tibetan army questioned the Tibetan soldiers who were also confused.

"It should have retreated, I don't believe you went up to the city wall to see, they all retreated."

Although the Tang army retreated very suddenly, these Tibetan soldiers reacted quickly and reoccupied important places such as the city wall.

Not only did the Tibetan soldiers and the Tibetan people fail to see the intentions of the Tang army, but even the generals of the Tibetan army could not see clearly what kind of medicine was being sold in these Tang army gourds.

"Are you sure that the Tang army has retreated, and there is no place to leave an ambush?"

There was a sudden abnormal situation on the battlefield, and the first thought of these generals was that the enemy might have an ambush, after all, they suddenly had more reinforcements, and if the enemy didn't want to lose too much, he wouldn't choose to fight them, but the enemy would not easily retreat when he had an advantage, so it was very likely that they would set up an ambush on the way they retreated, that is, on the way forward of the Tibetan army, and wanted to use ambush warfare to consume more Tibetan soldiers.

However, a Tibetan general who had fought on the front line before assured the Tibetan general that the Tang army had really withdrawn on all fronts, and it was so sudden that it did not look like it had been plotted for a long time.

Hearing the general say this, the Tubo general also frowned: "Let's go and have a look first." ”

By the time they arrived at the city wall, the Tibetan soldiers had reoccupied the city wall and some of the surrounding fortifications, and the Tang troops outside the city had also withdrawn to their original positions.

Seeing this, the Tibetan general began to be suspicious.

"The Tang army doesn't look like a fake retreat, even if they are a fake retreat, but we have reoccupied the city wall, even if they want to fight back, they have to fight again."

"I don't understand what the hell these Han people are going to do."

The general groaned, he had already concentrated his personal guard forces, and when the Tang army arrived in the city, he could immediately lead his elite personal guards to break through.

But these special Tang troops actually retreated first when he was about to retreat strategically, almost making him...

Thankfully, he didn't run so fast after waiting a while.

Just as the general was thinking about his own affairs, a general next to him came up and said, "General, could it be that something happened to those Tang troops themselves, such as their rear being attacked, or other problems such as grain and grass." ”

The general felt that it made sense and was about to nod, but before the general could nod, he continued: "If they are really in chaos in the rear, then we may be able to take advantage of the victory to pursue, if we can drive them out of the border, ah, if we can relieve the siege of Qingtang City, it will definitely be a great achievement, and the general will definitely be appreciated and promoted at that time." ”

As soon as the general heard that he was going out of the city to pursue the Tang army, his eyes immediately changed.

Now the Tubo army in the city is only more than 10,000 people, and the Tang army outside the city must have 60,000 people, so what will he do to fight others.

And not to mention that he only has more than 10,000 people, even if he is given 60,000 now, he will not dare to go out to pursue those Tang troops.

He was not a piece of war material, but because the Tang Dynasty was at war with the Turks during this time, he just needed military merits, so he thought of going to the border here to fight the autumn wind and mix up some military merits so that he could go back to inherit his father's position.

But he didn't expect to die well, but he encountered the counterattack of the Tang army, and after they all withdrew to Qingtang City, he was actually promoted to be the commander because of his most prominent status.

Now he only thinks about being able to save his life, if he can, he can just keep Qingtang City by the way, and he is still thinking about going out to pursue the Tang army.

Seeing the look in the general's eyes, another general next to him immediately retorted: "What are you kidding, those Tang troops retreated because they were obviously afraid of the general's majesty, you see that as soon as the general led the troops, they immediately retreated regardless of it, isn't this because they are afraid of the general?" ”

"Also, you see that after they withdrew, they immediately guarded the original place, and there was no intention of panicking at all, and it was impossible that there was turmoil in the rear."

"Now we only have more than 10,000 people, even if the general is mighty, but there is no way to kill all these Tang troops, do you want to watch our Tubo brothers die like this?"

The general was right, although everyone knew that he was bragging, but no one could refute it, and no one dared to refute it.

However, the general's words sounded extremely comfortable to the general's ears.

"Then it's very likely, after all, I was ordering troops to kill at that time, and with the support of some people, those Tang soldiers fled when they saw us."

The general boasted to himself, looking at the situation now, it seems that other explanations don't make sense except for this explanation, although this explanation doesn't make sense, but after all, he sounds good.

If Zhang Yi knew what these Tubo people were thinking now, he would probably want to look up to the sky and smile.

However, he didn't know, only those Tubo people knew, especially those Tubo soldiers, who shook their heads slightly and were extremely disappointed when they heard their general's conversation.

They fought desperately in front, although they didn't know why the enemy retreated, but there would definitely be no credit for those generals who instigated them, and it was ridiculous that these generals were ashamed to attribute the credit for Tang's retreat to their own heads.

With this battle, I'm afraid that their military exploits will have to add a strong stroke, although it is not a big victory, but it is indeed more than enough to make a fuss.

"Let's defend first, everyone is holding on for two days, according to the distance estimate, after two days, our reinforcements will be able to kill Qingtang, and by that time, those who can still stand on Qingtang City alive will be heroes!"

After the general finished speaking, he directly handed over the task of arming to the general who had just curried favor with him.

Everyone shook their heads, but they still consciously went to arrange the fortifications, after all, they couldn't be angry with the general about this matter, if the Tang army killed them, they would be the first to die, so they still had to do a good job in defense.

Zhang Yi, Wang Zhe and others watched the Tang army retreat from Qingtang City, and then watched the Tubo army redeploy.

"Trust me, they're going to have another fight!"

Zhang Yi said with great confidence that he would guard here with Wang Zhe and others, waiting for the next time these Tubo people had infighting.
