The moment Rensang stepped on the suspension bridge, Ge Shuhan was still three zhang away, and the suspension bridge was slowly pulled up in front of him, and Rensang was rushing towards the city gate hole, and Ge Shuhan was anxious to urge the war horse under his crotch. If he hadn't been stopped by Rensang's personal guards for a while just now, he would have caught up with Rensang with the foot strength of the BMW under his crotch at this moment.

But in fact, killing Rensang is not the ultimate goal, after the east and west city gates are closed, only the north gate is still open. If Ren Rensang entered the North City Gate, the North City Gate would also be closed, and then he and Li Guangbi would have to fight to the death with the Tubo soldiers. And the smoke and dust were billowing from the north, and it was obvious that the Tibetan cavalry had rushed back.

Geshuhan rushed to the drawbridge, which was already more than a man high, and Geshuhan slammed his horse to prevent it from rushing into the moat. The war horse came to a sharp stop, and Ge Shuhan on horseback jumped up in mid-air with the momentum of the forward rush, his toes were a little on the upturned suspension bridge, and his huge body drew an arc in the air and rushed straight behind Rensang.

At this moment, Rensang turned around, and although he was still two feet away, Ge Shuhan did not hesitate to throw the machete in his hand into the air, and with one blow, he cut Rensang's helmet skull in half.

Ge Shuhan landed on the ground, rushed forward to pick up the Daguan knife, and then sprinted back, struggling to the head of the upturned suspension bridge, swinging the Daguan knife and slashing at the iron cable of the suspension bridge. Just listen to the sound of 'bell' is piercing, the blade and the iron cable can only be splashed in all directions, and after a few knives, there is a boom, and the iron chain on one side is cut hard, and half of the drawbridge suddenly collapses.

Geshuhan did the same, and quickly cut off the iron chain on the other side, and the entire drawbridge fell with a bang, and was rebuilt on the moat in front of the city gate.

All this happened so quickly that the defenders at the city gate and the Tibetan soldiers crowded through the city gate did not have time to react. It wasn't until after the drawbridge was cut that someone came to their senses and shouted, "Close the gates, close the gates." ”

But how could Ge Shuhan allow them to calmly close the city gate, and rushed to the city gate hole with machetes, rushing towards the Tubo soldiers who were crowded inside and outside the city gate. The Tibetan soldiers turned around and rushed towards the city gate, the flow of people hindered the speed of the city gate closing, and the dozens of soldiers pushing the city gate only closed half of the city gate and could no longer resist the Tubo soldiers who poured back, and were unable to close all the city gates.

Ge Shuhan galloped forward, slashing and slashing the enemy soldiers all the way with the Daguan knife in his hand, until he reached the inside of the city gate. After cutting down several Tibetan soldiers who rushed forward, Ge Shuhan stood with a deafening roar from his mouth and guarded the city gate like a god. Hundreds of Tibetan soldiers trembled, but none of them dared to rush forward.

At the same time, Li Guangbi's soldiers and horses finally got rid of the entanglement of the Tibetan infantry, and hundreds of horsemen stepped on the drawbridge and rushed towards the city gate. More than 100 cavalry were followed by a tidal wave of cavalry soldiers and horses pouring into the city, scattering hundreds of soldiers inside the city gate.

Li Guangbi rushed to Ge Shuhan's side on horseback, and laughed loudly: "Ge Shu is so handsome and brave, Guangbi admires the five-body throw, and the handsome man should be a man who can't open it." ”

Ge Shuhan looked up to the sky and laughed: "It's a little meaning, I can't plan, but I'm good at charging and killing the enemy." Brother Guangbi, what should I do next. ”

Li Guangbi said: "I have ordered all to enter the city, the enemy cavalry has turned back, and there is not much time." Let as many soldiers and horses enter the city as you can. ”

Ge Shuhan nodded and said, "I'll go and lead the troops and horses to cover the army's retreat to the city." The enemy cavalry charged and could not resist. ”

Li Guangbi said: "I have ordered General Chang Kun to lead 10,000 cavalry to meet them and hold them back. Geshu Dashuai should go to the city to organize the defense of the city. I led my men to occupy the four gates of the city and purge the enemy of the city. Great commander, the city gate should be closed in time, and it is better to abandon some soldiers and horses than to teach them to rush into the city. ”

Ge Shuhan nodded and said, "Okay, since you have already arranged it, I will listen to you." ”

A steady stream of Tang cavalry rushed into Stone Fort City. In order to cover the rapid entry of the army into the city, Chang Kun, the cavalry general under Li Guangbi's tent, ordered 10,000 cavalry to meet the Tubo cavalry brigade that galloped back from the north to rescue.

10,000 cavalry against 40,000 cavalry was a suicidal task. But Chang Kun knew very well in his heart that the key to winning tonight's battle was himself. The longer the enemy cavalry was delayed, the better, so as to give the army more time to withdraw into the city, so he led 10,000 cavalry to meet the attack without hesitation, and collided head-on with the 40,000 Tibetan cavalry who came to the rescue, and fought together.

Wangmu knew that the intention of the Tang army was to cover the siege, but he had no way, in order to quickly rescue, his cavalry had no formation, in this chaotic situation, he could not attack the cavalry separately, and could only be glued by the Tang cavalry. The only way to do this is to deal with this 10,000 enemy army as quickly as possible.

But how could 10,000 cavalry be annihilated so easily, even if they were sent to death one by one, it would take a long time that night. What's more, they are still the cavalry of the Tang Dynasty, although their riding skills are inferior, but they are superior to the Tubo people in terms of armor and weapons. Soon, the 40,000 Tibetan cavalry were tightly stuck by the 10,000 cavalry and fell into a melee.

The nearly 20,000 Tubo infantry who were killed and scattered by the Tang army also gradually came to their senses, they did not dare to approach the main force of the Tang cavalry that was entering the city, but they dared to besiege and kill the 10,000 Tang cavalry who were trapped in the heavy siege with their own cavalry. More than 60,000 Tibetan infantry cavalry besieged these 10,000 cavalry.

Li Guangbi led his soldiers and horses to quickly occupy the four gates of Shibao City, and opened the gates on the east and west sides, which greatly accelerated the speed of cavalry entering the city. When most of Chang Kun's 10,000 cavalry had been killed, the entire Stone Fort City had been basically controlled by the Tang army. More than 38,000 Tang cavalry had withdrawn into the city. With the exception of the North Gate, all the gates are closed.

Half an hour later, the general situation in the city had been decided, and Li Guangbi and Ge Shuhan stood side by side on the north city tower, watching the chaos under the city. Chang Kun's 10,000 cavalry only had more than 3,000 left, but he still did not retreat, and led these 3,000 remnants to rush left and right in the formation of the Tubo people.

"General Chang is very kind, if he doesn't die in this battle, you and I will vigorously promote him." Geshuhan said.

Li Guangbi nodded and said, "General Chang is a loyal and brave general, and I don't want him to die outside the city." When people came, Mingjin reminded them to retreat into the city, and the archers at the head of the city were ready. ”

The gong 'clanged', an order to remind Chang Kun and his remnants to retreat. Chang Kun had more than a dozen injuries all over his body, and there were deep wounds on his shoulders and thighs. He could no longer hold a weapon in his right hand, and only used his left hand to hold a long sword. Hearing the sound of gold at the head of the city, Chang Kun turned his horse's head and ordered the soldiers and horses around him to start breaking through.

More than 3,000 horsemen surrounded Chang Kun and clashed in the direction of the north city gate, and people were constantly slashed and killed along the way, and only 800 people were left when 3,000 people were killed. But these 800 men finally succeeded in breaking through the encirclement of the Tibetan army and rushing towards the city gate.

The overwhelming Tubo cavalry chased after them, and when they reached within a hundred steps of the city, thousands of arrows were fired on the city wall, and arrows like a torrential rain shot down from the city, and immediately shot hundreds of the Tibetan cavalry who were chasing and forgot to go. Rounds of arrows rained down, and the Tibetan cavalry suffered heavy casualties, and many of them only realized that the city had changed hands, and the defenders in the city were already Tang troops.

Wangmu hurriedly ordered to withdraw out of range of the arrows. After gathering the soldiers and horses, Wangmu looked at Stone Fort City from afar with a dejected expression. He couldn't figure out why this battle was such a result. An army of 80,000 went out to attack the camp, but it was taken out of the nest, and Shibao City was occupied by the Tang army, what is going on?

More than 20,000 of the 80,000 troops were killed and wounded, although the number of Tang troops killed was the same, but the people gave up their nests, and now their more than 50,000 soldiers and horses have become ownerless lonely souls.

The city can't be attacked, and there are no siege equipment, how to attack the city? And now even eating and drinking is a problem, before the battle, no one with dry food and water bladders to push the grain cart to follow, because there is a city as a large rear. And now these are big problems.

Wangmu gathered several generals to discuss together, and unanimously decided to immediately lead his army to the south to evacuate. After the food is gone, the army is ineffective, and in just one day, the soldiers will be dizzy, and the horses will be weak, so you must leave here immediately to seek supplies in the tribal city in the south, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable.

The Great Gobi Desert woke up in the early morning glow, the stone fort city standing on the Gobi Desert was finally conquered by the Tang Army, and the 80,000 Tibetan soldiers and horses still stationed here last night had disappeared, and the dragon flag of the Tang Dynasty was fluttering on the head of the city.

After learning the news that the Tibetan soldiers and horses fled south in disarray, the city was full of cheers. Last night, no one expected that the battle of 60,000 against 80,000 would have such an ending. Of course, there were many dead and wounded soldiers, especially the 10,000 infantry who were slaughtered without knowing it. But the outcome of the campaign was encouraging.

It was this stone castle city that brought great shame to the two armies of Longyou and Hexi, and this time it was able to capture the stone castle city, which not only avenged the defeat of last year, but also fulfilled Xuanzong's stubborn wish. And it can be regarded as a little comfort to Wang Zhonghe, who was belittled because of this city.

"I'm going to write to Wang Shuai to inform Wang Shuai of the news of the capture of Stone Castle City, and he must be very happy." Brother Shuhan, who had not slept all night with red eyes, said.

"Yes, make him proud of us." Li Guangbi also said with red eyes.
