With a "click", a ladder was already on the city wall.

There was a "bang", and before the Tubo soldiers below could react, a basin of water had been poured directly down in the city.

The Tubo soldiers subconsciously blocked their eyes, lest they be burned by the hot water, but ......

"Huh!" The Tibetan soldier suddenly opened his eyes and looked up.

More water was poured down on it, directly pouring it on him.

But none of this water is boiling, it's not even hot, but it's not very cold, what are they doing?

The Tubo soldiers didn't know why for a while, so they simply didn't want to, and immediately grabbed the ladder that was also wet with water and quickly climbed up.

However, just halfway up, the cold wind suddenly blew cold from behind, and the Tubo soldiers couldn't help but shiver.

Immediately, more cold wind continued to blow as he climbed high, and for a while, he was a little weak all over his body.

But at this time, more water was poured over his head, and inexplicably, he actually felt that the water was hotter.

One hand grasped the ladder, seeing that the female wall was in front of him, although he was cold, the Tubo soldier still planned to jump up......

Suddenly, his hand on the ladder was not able to break free, but his body was already upward.

A cold lance stabbed directly, and the hot blood suddenly dispersed in the air......

In an instant, dozens of people fell from the city wall at the same time.

More people, at this time, did not hesitate to continue to climb, only by killing and killing into the city, they could live.

With a "bang", more water had been poured down from the top of the head.

The three-zhang high city wall, the soldiers, and the ladders were all wet, but the ladders were quickly frosted in the cold wind......

The lance was just a mechanical stab, and the Tubo soldiers had already been stabbed down before they had time to rush to the city.

Long lances, feathered arrows, crossbows, and under the repeated attacks, the city walls were already full of corpses, and I didn't know how many died.

The blood that came out was already frozen.

With a "snap", a cloud ladder suddenly crooked, and then smashed the two cloud ladders next to it.

More than a dozen people above fell directly to the ground at the same time.

Many people were directly smashed on the head and bleeding, and many more tried to stand up, but were directly slipped and fell in an instant.

At this time, they realized that a thin layer of ice had accumulated on the ground.

Especially when the cold wind blows, it freezes faster,

On the city wall, there is also a lot of water under the feet of the water, on the ladder, on the ground, and even between the fallen corpses, there is a lot of water, and every step must be careful of slipping.

In particular, the feather arrows and crossbow arrows of the city wall are still falling, more corpses are falling to the ground, and more water is accumulating on the city wall.

People can't help but have an illusion that they will use corpses to pile up a mountain of corpses under the city wall.

White, with an inexplicable flash, it makes people uneasy.

However, at this time, the Tubo soldiers behind them still continued to charge.

The sound of the horn became more and more urgent, and the 10,000 most elite men under Zan Xiruo finally began to attack the city.

……

Looking at the soldiers who slipped down the ladder from time to time and were killed by crossbow arrows, a general couldn't help but look at Zanxiruo and said, "Great Minister, if it goes on like this, I'm afraid that these 10,000 people will also die." ”

Under the lion elephant, Zan Xiruo looked up at the city wall.

Outside the city walls, almost every ladder was watered and frozen into ice, and the previous step was very difficult.

The soldiers who rushed up were also quickly wet, even if they could carry the cold wind and continue to rush, but afterwards, they would inevitably get seriously ill.

With this hand alone, Zanxiruo's combat power will be cut by half.

Zan Xiruo's gaze fell on the black daku, and there was a trace of doubt on his face, and he said in a low voice: "If this is the case, they have prepared at least 100,000 arrows of various kinds at the head of the city, as well as water, how many water tanks have they piled up on the city wall, how can they have so many places." ”

The width of the city wall is limited, even at the head of the city, it is only about two zhang, and on the sides, it may not even be one zhang.

In today's situation, how can you still kill so efficiently and continuously?

This is what Zan Xiruo doesn't understand the most.

Obviously, the space of the city wall was limited, and Li Xuan was able to continue to organize a steady attack of manpower.

If this had been replaced by someone else guarding the city wall, I am afraid that it would have entered the point of hand-to-hand combat.

Being an opponent with Li Xuan is like you are carrying endless burdens all the time, and there are countless bows and arrows on your head, and at the end of the march, there are countless sharp lances waiting.

Four words suddenly flashed in Zan Xiruo's mind: wait for work with ease.

"Minister, take a break, and come up with a strategy for dealing with the ice." Another general couldn't help but remind.

In today's situation, the ice will only get thicker and thicker because of the constant splashing of water on it, which is extremely unfavorable for their siege.

Zanxiruo shook his head slightly and said, "What if he pours water and a layer of ice on the periphery of the entire city wall overnight, it will be more and more difficult for us to attack the city in the future." ”

Everyone immediately fell silent, they believed that with Li Xuan's personality, they would definitely be able to do this kind of thing.

But the problem is that they simply don't have a response to this kind of tactics right now.

What's more, they didn't think that Li Xuan would use this kind of time period as freezing.

And this method is also suitable for the current weather.

And later......

"Order, continue to attack, attack, and transfer another 5,000 people from this formation......" Zanxiruo's voice was lowered, and when the generals around heard it, they couldn't help but light up their eyes.

In the next moment, several generals had already left the military formation, along with 5,000 cavalry from the main formation, aiming directly at the Cuona Lake on the west side.

Zan Xiruo looked up at the black daqi at the head of the city, and now there were only five thousand cavalry left by his side.

At this time, Li Xuan should have seen an opportunity.

What will he do?

Zanxiruo's eyes were incomparably deep, and what flashed in the depths of his eyes was deadly hatred.

At the beginning, Li Xuan raided the Qinling Tomb at Cuona Lake, and what he caught was the gap that appeared in the change of rhythm in an instant, and now his opportunity has come out.

Will he come?

……

In Naqu City, under the city walls on both sides, several sturdy men turned the winch in front of them vigorously, carrying a large basin of water from the city head to ensure the continuous supply of water at the head of the city.

The entire long street behind is densely packed with water tanks.

Zan Xiruo's guess was correct, Li Xuan did prepare a layer of water in the city to freeze the entire Naqu.

In this season, ice is the keeper's best friend.

It was more than 20 degrees below zero, and even if there was a ladder, it would take several times more casualties than the original to climb the city wall.

Even if they climbed the city wall, they would be unable to move because of the numbness of their hands and feet, and they could only be reduced to lambs to the slaughter.

Standing at the head of the city, Li Xuan's brows were furrowed, and on the city walls on both sides, more and more Tubo soldiers rushed up desperately.

Some of the corpses were even frozen directly on the ladder, and others stepped on his corpses to climb up without thinking about it.

Even the ladder has been frozen inside.

Despite the difficulty, the Tibetans continued to rush upward, and the frequency of the crossbow began to decrease overhead.

Even if Li Xuan asked the archers to shoot in turns, but the weather was cold and the bow was tired, and after a long time, they had to slow down the bow and arrow, and their arms also needed to slow down.

More water poured down from the city, and more lances were lifted.

More lives fell under the walls.

Li Xuan raised his head and looked at the lion elephant flag in the distance.

With such a desperate and crazy attack, what is Zan Xiruo trying to do?

At this moment, the five thousand cavalry went crazy towards the west, pointing directly at the lake on the west side.

Under the lion elephant, only 5,000 cavalry remained at this time......

"Dashuai." Yang Zhirou couldn't help but give up.

Li Xuan raised his head, looked at the lion elephant flag that was almost close at hand, but was actually far away in the sky, and finally shook his head and said, "This king can indeed lead a thousand cavalry to kill it directly, but that's it, if you are surprised, you will die in the hands of this king." ”

"The handsome don't want Zan Xiruo to die at his own hands?" Yang Zhirou immediately understood.

"If Zanxi has to die at the hands of the Tibetan royal family, as long as this happens, the Gar family and the Tibetan royal family will turn their faces, and we will have an easier time next year." Li Xuan shook his head, looked to the side, and said, "Tell Su Baotong not to move for the time being." ”

"Whoa!" Yang Zhirou immediately surrendered his hand, and then headed towards the governor's mansion in the rear, where there were still a thousand cavalry, ready to reinforce all sides.

Time passed little by little, however, even if the arrows on the city wall decreased, the Tibetans could no longer attack.

Even though they had climbed to the top of the ladder, a long lance stabbed them straight down.

Obviously, one had already dodged the lance blade and grabbed the lance with one hand, but at this moment, his feet suddenly slipped, and on the city wall, another lance stabbed fiercely.

With a "snap", a corpse had fallen from the ladder, and more corpses had also fallen, and no one got up again.

More people stormed the city wall again, they were all veterans of a hundred battles, indifferent to life and death, and naturally rushed forward desperately.

And they have even more cunning, shields, corpses in front of them, all let them rush forward with the help of caution.

It was at this time that the force that stormed the city walls suddenly weakened, and there were quite a few people who stood cunningly under the city and did not touch the ladder.

Although there are still feather arrows falling above the head, but compared to before, there are many less, and the soldiers behind him do not dare to kill on the other side of the Naqu River, and now at this time, standing there, not going up, is the safest for individuals.

At this time, they are more holding their heads up, carefully looking for opportunities, but with basins of cold water splashed on their heads, and long lances keep stabbing them, anyone who rushes up with their heads will soon fall into a corpse.

Many people couldn't help but look at the lion elephant in the distance.

At this moment, under the lion elephant flag, a violent drum suddenly sounded, and almost instantly, the soldiers who were originally standing under the city immediately began to rush up desperately.

The drums were beating non-stop, and even if they were poured through, they were desperate for the impact.

Li Xuan stood at the head of the city, and suddenly couldn't help but scream: "That's not right." ”

With a "boom", a rolling stone the size of a wooden basin kept rolling in mid-air, and finally smashed into the city wall......

Countless cracks immediately appeared in the ice on the city wall.

"Everyone." Li Xuan glanced sideways, and suddenly, in the city wall, the archers who were originally resting against the wall immediately stood up, and the bows and arrows in their hands flew up in an instant.

Under the dense city, there were hundreds of casualties at once.

This time, all the archers shot all the arrows in the quiver in the shortest possible time.

In an instant, a large area of the dense city fell.

You don't even need to look at it to know how heavy the deaths and injuries of the Tubo people are.

The drums continued to sound, and all the Tibetan soldiers rushed forward like crazy, crowded under the city.

And what Li Xuan did was the best covering density strike, and the killing efficiency reached the extreme in an instant.

At this time, suddenly, the east gate, the west gate, the north gate, three directions, at the same time, there was a fierce fight.

Li Xuan, who was still a little nervous, suddenly smiled.
