Three days later, Lintao City.

After the defeat in the first battle, the Tibetan army did not attack immediately, but rested for three days. However, there is no intention of retreating at all.

Of course, this is Yao Yuanchong's request, and it is also the fact that Yao Yuanchong is very happy, and he must go to Lintao City to live in the military camp, which is not good for his reputation as a thorn history, not to mention that Wu Chu did not bring relatives and slaves, and it is very inconvenient to dress and freshen up.

Now that he lives in the Assassin's Mansion, he has his own servants and maids in the Assassin's Mansion, and Wu Chu did not refuse, but some unspoken rules are useless, after all, thinking about the strategy of retreating from the enemy every day consumes all his energy.

At this moment, Wu Zheng was looking at the intelligence from the Heyuan Army, and after reading it, he couldn't help but be a little worried, the Heyuan Army was annihilated so quickly, which he didn't expect. There are only 3,000 state soldiers in Shanzhou City, and even if they are recruited temporarily, they are just a rabble, and I am afraid that Shanzhou City will not be protected. However, it can retreat to Liangzhou, although the Wuwei army is only 10,000, but if Xu Qinming and Guo Yuanzhen make good use of it, they should be able to hold the city. The high walls of Lanzhou Jincheng City are thick, and there are 20,000 soldiers in the Chong Prefecture, and Tubo will not consider attacking.

However, according to Lou Shide, if the Eastern Turks go south at this time, then the battle situation in Longyou will become confusing. Wu Chu was a little helpless, although he controlled the Longyou army, but it was only moderation. If Lou Shide could ask himself before the war, why would he not hesitate to abandon Heyuan, and then retreat to Liangzhou or Lanzhou, or even to Shazhou and Guazhou!

The Heyuan Army died out so quickly. Let Wu Chu have no choice but to sigh, he can only hold Lintao City first and then make plans. It's just that the high house chicken has been on a mission for a few days, but there is no response, what happened? And where is the Jishi Army, and why didn't Wu Youxu contact him.

This qiē made him deeply worried, the information was not smooth, and he didn't know if he had received many orders after he had issued them.

When the war drums of warning sounded again, Wu Chu hurriedly left the Assassin's Mansion. and Yao Yuanchong climbed to the top of the city. I saw the Tubo army coming slowly, and it was obvious that there was no delay in the three-day rest of Qinling, and he was making siege equipment. After the Tubo people married Princess Wencheng. I learned a lot of things in Datang, such as the ladder and battering ram, as well as the rock-throwing cart that was raised high.

As he watched the slaves of Tubo push these things slowly, Wu Chu's face showed a solemnity. This time. It seems that Qinling is about to give up his old life, and the number of soldiers invested is several times more than last time!

Immediately, Wu Chuan ordered: "The bed crossbow is ready, the catapult is ready!" ”

The heralds waved flags and shouted loudly, giving orders one by one.

When they were four hundred paces away from the city, the Tibetan soldiers began to accelerate. At the same time, the Tibetan rock-throwing cart stopped. The slaves began to fix the base.

At three hundred paces, Wu Zheng shouted: "Bed crossbow fire!" ”

Strong soldiers raise their gavels. smashed down, and suddenly there was a muffled sound, and three crossbow arrows from each bed crossbow shot out, making a sound of breaking through the air.

The dense Tubo soldiers carried the ladder and ran towards Lintao City desperately. Suddenly, the crossbow arrow that was shot pierced the body, and the crossbow arrow was thrown high with the body or nailed to the ground.

For a time, the screams of the Tibetan soldiers resounded under the city.

At the same time, the stone throwing cart of Tubo began to start, and a stone of about 100 catties was thrown onto the city, and suddenly a burst of loess splashed, and a soldier could not dodge, and was instantly smashed into a pulp, and even smashed a bed crossbow.

Wu Chuan shouted coldly: "Catapult, smash that catapult for me!" ”

The soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty shouted and loaded the catapult with a hundred catties of boulders, and the improved catapult of Wuqi also had an aiming benchmark, which was many times more accurate than the catapult. But the hit rate is still not high, and if you can make something like "ballistic", it will be a historic breakthrough.

The catapult is fixed at a distance of 400 paces, and the probability of hitting the catapult at this distance is very low. But the stone-throwing cart didn't matter what hit or not, it was dragged by hundreds of Tibetan slaves, and threw hundreds of pounds of stones on the city frantically, and smashed on the city head and suddenly it was a piece of ruin, which made the Great Zhou soldiers miserable, and all those who were hit were almost smashed into pulp.

The recruit was timid, turned and ran, but after taking a few steps, he was beheaded by the law enforcement team. Wu Chu said sharply: "The city is not guaranteed, you and other parents, wives and children are all owned by Tubo, and if you dare to have a fugitive, you will not be forgiven!" ”

How the recruits had seen such a battle, and with the comfort of the veterans, they gradually settled down. However, the ladder of the Tubo soldiers was set up at the head of the city, and Wu Chu and Yao Yuanchong were each responsible for a section of the city wall, but Yao Yuanchong only assisted from the side.

The soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty carried out Wu Zheng's orders in an orderly manner, and the recruits became extremely skilled under the leadership of the veterans, working together to kill the enemy, and the Tubo soldiers were hacked to death and stabbed to death before they could climb the city wall!

Wu Chu took charge of the overall situation, looking at the Tubo soldiers who were densely climbing the ladder, he wanted to look up to the sky and roar, but found that there was only anger in his chest! The soldiers of the Great Zhou died one by one, or were killed by arrows, or smashed into pulp by stones.

"Your Highness, be careful!" A small soldier shouted.

As soon as Wu Chu raised his head, he saw a black shadow smashing him, and the little soldier pounced on him, Wu Chu kicked his legs, and immediately stopped the little soldier, and when he couldn't make a move, he slapped his palm on the boulder.

Bang!

With a loud bang, the boulder burst open. Wu Chu put down the little soldier and asked, "Soldier, sue me for your name!" ”

The little soldier obviously didn't understand what had happened just now, but King Wei's eyes were full of majesty, and he said in a low voice: "Back to Your Highness, little Qinzhou people, Deng Ping!" ”

Wu Shu patted his shoulder, "From today on, you will follow me!" ”

Deng Ping was stunned for a moment, then smiled, bowed down and said, "Your Highness Xie!" ”

At this moment, when a commander of a thousand men ascended to the head of the city and slashed the soldiers of the Great Zhou. Wu Chu took an arrow step, rushed up, grabbed the scimitar of the thousand-commander, and then twisted it, and directly twisted it into a twist, and then kicked the thousand-commander off the city.

When the soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty saw that the King of Wei was so powerful, they shouted, and according to the training, they began to combine in pairs to kill the enemy together. At this time, the stone-throwing trucks under the city also stopped throwing stones. The Great Zhou soldiers finally got a chance to breathe, but a large number of Tibetan soldiers climbed to the top of the city.

Yao Yuanchong was dressed in a three-grade official uniform, but he held a horizontal knife in his hand, he practiced martial arts freely, and his martial arts rarely fell, so he was almost a knife at a time, clean and neat. And for every time he hacked someone to death, he had to laugh out loud!

Wu Chu looked at Yao Yuanchong, whose blood was splattered all over his body, and he didn't look like a weak scholar at all, and couldn't help but admire: "Good job, Yuan Chong!" ”

After Yao Yuanchong killed a centurion, he let out a sigh of relief and said, "Yuan Chong never thought that in his lifetime, this martial art would still be useful. Let His Highness smile. ”

In Wu Zheng's hand, he used a long spear with a wooden handle, although it was too light, but it really made the speed of the gun a lot faster. It seems that light weapons also have the advantage of being light, he pierced two with one shot, and then threw down the city, saying: "The country is not in strife, and it is not the blessing of the people in the end, no matter how strong the country is, it will consume the national strength because of the war." But I am surrounded by strong enemies in the Great Zhou, if it cannot be completely pacified, how will the Great Zhou develop? ”

Yao Yuanchong chopped one person to death, and he couldn't help but be shocked in his heart, listening to the meaning of King Wei, is this to completely wipe out the Turks and Tibet? But no matter what, he has already stood on Wu Zheng's side, so he should think about Wu Zheng.

"Your Highness is right, he is willing to be a pawn in front of His Highness."

Wu Chu laughed and roared, "Ladies and gentlemen, today I am surrounded by the invasion of Tibet, and the king of Japan will lead you to attack the city of Lhasa, so that the women of Tibet can conceive your children!" ”

The generals laughed for a while, but their morale rose instantly, and even the recruits forgot the fear of death, and they were so fearless that they died with the Tubo soldiers!

The battle at the head of the city lasted for a full hour, and no matter how many soldiers Qinling sent, they were still wiped out at the head of the city.

After being killed again and again, the Lun Qin Tomb finally ordered someone to blow the horn of retreat.

In this battle, Tubo lost 70,000 elites, 20,000 in the Great Zhou, and nearly 10,000 wounded. It was a pyrrhic victory, but the Tibetans lost.

When the horn of Tubo sounded in a low voice, at the head of the city, the soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty hugged each other and cried, and the half-dead veteran finally showed a smile, closed his eyes, and passed away for a long time!

Wu Chu was not happy, and after he pacified the wounded soldiers and generals, he wrote a long note to the empress.

Yao Yuanchong had a lot to do, burying the corpses, stepping up the repair of the city walls, and so on.

It was also this night.

Wu Chu received a secret letter from Gao Sheji, who had not heard from him for a long time, telling about what had happened in the past few days, and when he said that he had captured 30,000 Tibetan soldiers and 50,000 war horses, he smiled.

Yao Yuanchong on the side showed doubts, Wu Chu gave him the letter, Yao Yuanchong took the letter, read it, after a moment, got up and said: "Your Highness, the minister has a plan to make the Qinling retreat, and then it can be broken, then the Tubo army is not enough to worry about." ”

Wu Chuan smiled and said, "Yuan Chong said come and listen!" ”

Yao Yuanchong said slowly: "Your Highness, just let this letter be intercepted by the Tubo spies, Weichen believes that Non Qinling will definitely choose to go north to Liangzhou, prepare to join up with Non Zanpo, and order the Jishi army to ambush in Surohan Mountain!"

Wu Chu pondered for a moment, thought about it, and then spread out the map and looked at it for a long time, and finally laughed and said: "Okay, this plan has a seventy percent success rate, but no matter what, after Qinling experienced this battle, he had to withdraw if he didn't retreat." If you retreat to Liangzhou, you must pass through Surohan Mountain, this mountain has only one road to Liangzhou, if so, it must be called Tubo has no return! If this plan is successful, Yuan Chong will take credit, and this king will definitely play the saint. ”

Yao Yuanchong smiled slightly, bowed down and said: "It is only because His Highness cultivated that Yuan Chong is today, Yuan Chong does not dare to take credit!" ”

Wu Chuan sighed, this Yao Yuanchong is also a talker, and he is also a doer, he can have today, although he has his own promotion, but his talent is obvious to all.

"Don't be modest." Immediately, the two discussed, and then sent someone to carry out the task, and informed Gao Sheji and the Jishi Army to make Wu Youxu. (To be continued......)
