Chapter 7: Stone Castle City

The Yaoshui River is turbulent and has a narrow riverbed, like a canyon. Heading east along the canyon, there is a russet cliff.

There is a castle towering over the cliff, which is the famous "Stone Castle City".

Shibao City is backed by Huashi Mountain and faces the Yaoshui River. The cliffs in front of it, the mountains on both sides are undulating, like eagles spreading their wings, and there is only a mountain road that can accommodate three or five people in parallel leading to Shibao City.

When Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty toured Zhangye in the west, he came here, saw that the terrain was dangerous, and ordered the city to be built, and there was a stone fort city. At the end of the Sui Dynasty, Shibao City was occupied by Tubo, and since then, Shibao City has become the foundation of Tubo's invasion of Hehuang.

Starting from here, Tubo can be attacked, retreated and defended, and can invade the land of Hehuang at any time, which poses a huge threat to the Tang Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty has always wanted to take it back, and has sent troops several times, but it has returned without attack.

It's not that the Tang army is not good at fighting, but the terrain of Shibao City is really dangerous, so the Tang army can't use it.

As for the danger of the stone castle city, the ancients wrote a poem "Who opened the stone city gate, and even more misheard of the wind and stones." Jietian Bailing is better than Jintang, suppressing half of the southwest sky", which shows the danger of this city.

The stone castle city is not big, built on the cliff, about 100 meters in front, about 90 meters on both sides, and the whole castle can only garrison a few hundred people. The entire castle is made of sturdy long stone blocks, which are extremely sturdy and can be said to be impregnable.

The Tibetan soldiers gathered in groups of three or five, discussing and cursing the Tang Dynasty loudly.

"You have to get ready, we're going to fight, we're going to attack the land of the river."

"Attack the river? That's great! ”

"The land of Hehuang is rich, there are endless delicacies, endless silk, endless tea, and beautiful women with fine skin and tender meat, and if you enter Hehuang, you will fall into the nest of wealth."

"How did you know you were going to attack Hehuang?"

"Isn't that clear? The hateful and hateful Tang people laid down Xiao Bolu, cut off the passage of the Great Tubo into the Western Regions, and even killed thousands of Great Tibetan warriors on the Poyi River. ”

"I can't swallow this breath no matter what, I must kill the Tang people to take revenge! Kill more Tang people! We want to kill the Tang people! ”

"The Tang people are so ruthless that they have thrown thousands of warriors to death! I heard that the cliffs on the Poyi water are red, and after several months, they still haven't faded. ”

"We can't beat the Tang people elsewhere, but with Stone Castle City in hand, we can attack as much as we want. This time, we have suffered a big loss in the Western Regions, and we must find it back in the land of Hehuang, and this battle will be fought soon. ”

Tubo was a fierce rival of the Tang Dynasty, but this fierce rival was a little insufficient, because the national strength of Tubo was too far behind that of the Tang Dynasty.

If Tubo hadn't occupied a geographical advantage, it would not have been an opponent of the Tang Dynasty at all, and it would have been destroyed by the Tang Dynasty long ago. With the little national strength of Tubo, the Tang Dynasty will not be destroyed ten times, but also eight times.

In this way, Tubo could only take advantage of the geographical advantage, see the opportunity, give the Tang Dynasty a ruthless blow, hit and run, and fled back to the mountains and dense forests before the Tang army caught up.

Because Shibao City is in hand, this method of warfare is not unpleasant, because Tubo Fanfan suffered losses elsewhere and was defeated by the Tang Dynasty, so he had to find it back in the land of Hehuang, which almost became an iron law.

"Rumble!"

While they were discussing, they only heard an earth-shattering hoof sound coming from the north, and the Tibetan soldiers stood up and looked north, only to see a group of Tibetan troops rushing towards Shibao City.

"It's the warrior of the Great Tibet!"

"That's a lot of people!"

"The Great Tubo is going to attack the underground of the river Huang!"

Whenever the Tibetan army appeared in Shibao City, it proved that the Tibetan army was going to use troops against the land of Hehuang, and the Tibetan soldiers were rejoicing, and their faces were full of red light, as if they had been beaten with chicken blood.

The Tibetan army that arrived was the vanguard led by the Iron Blade Xi Nuoluo, who was dressed in bright light armor, hung a scimitar at his waist, carried a hard bow and strong arrows, and rode a high-headed horse, majestic and majestic.

"The warriors of the Great Tibet, in front of them is the Stone Castle City, and after passing the Stone Castle City, they will enter the land of the River Huang!" The iron-bladed Sinoro stood beside the horse road and cheered up the Tibetan soldiers: "The land of the river is full of gold, and a large handful of gold, silver and jewels are grabbed; The land of the river is full of beauties with fine skin and tender meat, hug ten, one is more beautiful than the other, will make your eyes dazzle, you don't know which one to ravage first! ”

"Huh!"

These words of encouragement were very special and novel, and the Tibetan soldiers couldn't help but laugh, and their eyes flashed with an alternative light.

"General, what would you do if you were in such a situation?" There were soldiers with eyes shining in the eyes of a man who would understand, and they stared at the iron-bladed Sinoro expectantly, hoping that he would answer.

"Bang bang!" The iron blade Xi Noluo patted on the bright light armor, raised his head proudly, straightened his chest, and said, "Of course I am ravaged together!" Who called me a warrior of the Great Tibet? ”

"Haha!" The Tibetan soldiers let out a burst of wild laughter, and the look in their eyes would be understood by a man.

"We are the warriors of the Great Tibet, don't let go of the beauties of the Tang Dynasty! You can show the majesty of the great Tibetan warriors on their bellies! Ironblade's voice was high, shrill and piercing.

"Show the majesty of the Great Tibetan warriors!"

This kind of thing is liked by a man, and the eyes of the Tibetan soldiers flashed with blazing light, and suddenly their spirits were greatly lifted, and they longed to grow their wings and fly to the land of the river.

Iron Blade Sinoro slapped the horse's back, followed the road, came to Stone Fort City, and without stopping, led the army through Shibao City, came to the Yaoshui River Gorge, and headed west.

The Tibetan army was like a long dragon, with no head in front and no tail in the back, rushing towards the land of the river.

In a forest above the Yaoshui River, a group of people are observing here.

The leader is a big man, unusually tall, mighty, and a fierce atmosphere, which makes people know at a glance that this is an amazing hero.

This person is a generation of famous generals, heroes of the world, and Li Guangbi, who is as famous as Guo Ziyi.

"The Tubo dog really can't stand the surname anymore, and he has sent troops to the land of the river!" Li Guangbi spit out half of the grass stalk in his mouth, frowned, and said, "The Tubo dog is really accurate at this time." The marshal entered Beijing and was imprisoned, and before the new marshal arrived, Tubo sent troops, and the Tubo dog was ruthless. ”

Speaking of this, Li Guangbi's eyes were full of light, like a sharp sword, his right hand clenched into a fist, and said: "As long as I Li Guangbi is here, the Tubo dog will not succeed!" ”

"General, you're here to find out the whereabouts of the Tubo dogs?" A guard asked in a low voice.

"That's right!" Li Guangbi's brows tightened, and he said, "The generals know that there is a quarrel, but they don't know that the crisis has come. The marshal was imprisoned, and there was no one to lead the armies in the northwest, and it must be a big deal for Tubo to send troops this time. Let's go, let's catch a few Tibetan dogs to find out. ”

With a wave of his right hand, he turned around and took the lead in leaving. The guards hurriedly followed.

A Tibetan centurion left the brigade and looked for a place to solve the internal emergency, and just unbuttoned his trousers, a big hand reached out silently and grabbed his neck.
