Chapter 464: The Attitude of the Reinforcements!
And after knowing the attitude of these family forces, Lu Chen was slightly relieved in his heart. Huoran? Wen???.? R a?n?en'net then he had the men hurry up and repair the damage on the walls of the city that had been broken by the battle. Especially the city gate that was shattered by land dust, now we must hurry up and replace it, otherwise, when the enemy army comes to attack, how can they defend it?
Eventually, in this emergency situation, they just put together some heavy planks to make a gate that looked very clumsy, but still had good defense.
After installing this city gate, Lu Chen's heart was completely relieved. Because now the basic defense measures of Hezhou City have been repaired. As long as there are not too many enemy troops coming to attack the city, Lu Chen is confident that he can hold it.
At the same time, the remnants of the Tibetan army who escaped from the city of Hezhou. They ran to Wonju City, the closest city to this place. But when they had crossed a slightly steep hill, they saw a large group of soldiers and horses in the distance. Because they were so far away, they could only see a dark crowd in the distance, rushing towards this direction.
Seeing the soldiers and horses in the distance, the Tibetan general immediately waved his hand to let all the soldiers hide, and then they hid in the hills, quietly waiting for the arrival of the army in the distance. After all, it is not clear at all now which force that army belongs to.
I don't know how long it took, but the Tibetan general, who had been hiding behind the boulder to observe, suddenly relaxed slightly, and he immediately turned to the soldiers who were hiding and said, "You don't need to hide, it's our reinforcements coming!" ”
Hearing this, the two thousand Tibetan soldiers suddenly breathed a long sigh of relief in their hearts. They are really afraid that the army on the other side is a soldier and horse from the Tang Dynasty, if it is really a soldier and horse from the Tang Dynasty, I am afraid that they will be unable to escape today.
And after these people appeared, the army in the distance seemed to have spotted them. It was obvious that the direction of the army's advance had changed slightly, and it was coming this way.
When the great army in the distance came to the bottom of the hills, they suddenly stopped marching. Soon, a soldier ran out of the army and rushed towards the hills. When the soldier came to the front of the Tibetan general, he saluted very respectfully and then said, "Report to General Tianda and Lin Lao, after receiving your letter of help, my general immediately sent General Luo Yin to lead 10,000 soldiers and horses to come to the rescue.
Hearing the words of the Tibetan soldier in front of him, he saw that the Tibetan general sighed at the same time as Lin Lao beside him. If these people had come a little earlier, they should still have hope of retaking Hezhou City. But now.......
Thinking of this, Tianda said in a slightly helpless tone, "This is the number of lives!" Let's go and explain the situation to General Luo Yin. This charge of losing the city... Just let me carry it! However, no one noticed that when he talked about General Luo Yin, his face sank slightly.
"Actually, you shouldn't be the only one to blame for losing the city this time. I believe that even other generals will choose to withdraw when they encounter this situation. Otherwise, it's just an increase in casualties," the old Lin next to him persuaded.
Hearing this, he saw that this Tubo general named Tianda shook his head and said, "No matter what, Hezhou City was lost in my hands, why do you have to come out to give an explanation?"
After hearing the words of this Tibetan general, Lin Lao stopped talking. His impression of this Tibetan general is still good. However, it is clear that this time, it is impossible for him to escape severe punishment. After all, a big city was lost, and this city was also the back road for the expedition to the Tang army. As soon as this city is lost, the entire army that invaded Datang is equivalent to being trapped in Datang.
It is conceivable that after losing such an important city, he had to give an explanation to those top generals and Zampu. However, with his character, it is naturally impossible for his subordinates to substitute for the crime.
In fact, when he decided to withdraw from Hezhou City, he had already thought about what kind of consequences he would suffer. If the other generals would definitely hold out until the last moment, even if the generals themselves led a few people to escape, they would let the army continue to fight the enemy in the city.
Because the fewer soldiers who escaped, the more it indicated that the fighting was fierce. Defeated in such a fierce battle, the punishment of these generals will undoubtedly be much lighter. However, he Tianda is an outlier among these generals. He has always respected the soldiers under him very much, and naturally it is impossible to let the soldiers die in such a defeated battle.
It's just that it is precisely because of his character that he suffered a dark loss in a battle against the conquest of the nomads in the south. And some generals who were at odds with him have been attacking him by virtue of that incident. Otherwise, with his strength, he might already be one of the top generals among the Tibetan generals.
He knew in his heart that he had suffered such a major mistake this time, and it was probably a question of whether he could keep his current official rank when he went back. Thinking of this, he sighed lightly, and then followed the Tubo soldiers who came over to report, and walked towards the bottom of the mountain.
Soon, Tianda saw a man on a horse and wearing pitch-black armor in front of the army not far away. This person he knew, it was the general Luo Yin mentioned by the guard before.
It's just that after meeting this general Luo Yin who came to their aid, Tianda didn't seem very enthusiastic. Because when this person was in Tibet, he was also one of the generals who opposed him.
Sure enough, after seeing Tianda coming. Luo Yin, who was riding on the horse, sneered and said unceremoniously, "General Tianda, haven't you always been known as an all-round general?" This time the city was captured by the Tang Dynasty, I don't know if you have anything to say? ”
Hearing this, Tianda didn't get angry, but just glanced at Luo Yin with a calm face, and then said slowly, "General Ben will report the battle situation here." It's just that General Luo Yin is not qualified to reprimand General Ben now! ”
"Hahaha, that's good! I hope that when you go back, you will still be able to be so tough. Now that General Tianda has lost the city, then I will go back and restore my life! By the way, I don't know General Tianda, do you want to go to Wonju City to live for a while now? After speaking, this Luo Yin looked at Tianda with a playful face.
"Hmph, even if General Ben dies in the wilderness, it is impossible for him to beg for your protection!" After saying that, Tianda immediately turned around and walked back towards his two thousand remnants on the mountain.
When they separated, Tianda immediately led the army to change the route of the march. Previously, he really wanted to go to Wonju City and discuss with the defenders there to recapture Haju City.
