Hu Biao's guess is right and wrong!

After the defenders of Qiuzi City expressed their determination not to surrender with practical actions, a long horn sounded from the position of the Chinese army on the side of the Tubo army.

Suddenly, on the left flank, a large number of people dismounted one after another and walked towards the city.

A large area of black pressure looks like there are tens of thousands of people.

Why is Hu Biao so sure, can he even know the legendary 'art of watching the army'? No, it's just that he feels that the wave of attackers in front of him adds up to about the same as the total number of soldiers and civilians in Qiuzi City.

Although judging from the distance of this wave of attackers, the speed of walking, and other factors, it will take at least half an hour to reach the city.

But Hu Biao found that in the face of this kind of war of more than 10,000 people, he was panicked in his heart.

The heart was beating so hard in great tension that the blood pressure definitely exceeded 150; The whole person is like a piece of wood, except for holding the spear in his hand, he doesn't know what to do at all.

Fortunately, at such a time, Zhang Tiezhu, who saw such a scene, scolded in his mouth:

"Don't panic! The more frightened and panicked you are on the battlefield, the faster you will die; When the fight starts later, be smart, and we'll take care of you.

Feel relieved! People don't die so easily. ”

The other people from the Second Cavalry of the Xuange Battalion didn't speak, but they all stretched out their hands and pulled Hu Biao and the others apart from the wall and behind them.

At that time, seeing these guys Liang Daya, who was half a head shorter than himself, blocking in front of him, Hu Biao suddenly felt more relieved.

But after a while, he felt that the expression on his face must be very ashamed.

Because in the face of the first attack of the enemy army that surpassed the Anxi army under his command and several times the strength of the army, Guo Xin at the head of the city gate shouted: "Prepare your clothes and armor and fight to the death~"

After hearing this, more than two dozen guards behind him shouted:

"Prepare your armor and fight to the death~"

In such a shout that spread all over the city wall, the Tang army of the Xuange battalion on this section of the city wall, such as Captain Wang, Zhang Tiezhu, Liang Daya, and One-eyed Dragon.

There were also all the soldiers of the Anxi Army on the other city walls, and they all began to tidy up their clothes and armor.

At the beginning, Hu Biao still didn't understand why they were doing this.

But looking at the huge scar on his face, it can be said that the terrifying-looking team is Zhang Tiezhu, who is extremely serious and solemn when he is sorting out his armor.

Suddenly, Hu Biao and the others magically understood.

These Tang soldiers hope to die in battle with the most neat appearance of a soldier.

Instinctively, Hu Biao and the others were also in a hurry, and they also began to sort out the clothes that were not neat at all because of the hasty assembly just now.

In the next second, the movements of their hands stopped.

Mainly after tidying up their armor, Zhang Tiezhu and others took off their helmets one after another, planning to straighten out their hair buns and put them back on again.

In this process, Hu Biao and the others saw that the city wall was full of white hair.

To be precise, there are thousands of Anxi troops in the city, and all the soldiers are white-haired old men; Mixed with their 21 heads of black hair, it looked so endless and desolate.

For a while, their throats and eyes were very blocked......

*******

Regarding the first attack of the Tibetan army, in fact, the personnel on both sides of the attack and defense did not pay much attention to it, knowing that it was just a little appetizer.

The greater significance of these people's attack is to consume the arrows of the Tang army on the city wall and test the strength of the Tang army defending the city wall.

Specifically, more than a dozen Turkic tribes attached to the Tibetans dispatched more than 10,000 troops to attack the city.

More precisely, these Turks were remnants of the post-Turkic khanate, and some of the surviving Turks migrated west after the Tang and Uighurs joined forces to destroy the Turkic Khanate.

The other part formed a large number of small tribes, which are now a dog under the hands of the Tibetans.

In this offensive, the number of Turkic cannon fodder, although it looked quite scary, did not play much of a role at all.

Don't look at the earthen walls of Qiuzi City, although it is only a little more than four meters high, it is not that the Turks who did not carry any siege equipment can climb it with their hands.

What's more, before climbing, they had to find a way to cross the moat at the foot of the city wall, which was seven or eight meters wide and three meters deep.

After they rushed over, they could only shoot at the Tang army on the city wall in the face of the river that could drown them.

In such a mutual fire, the Turkic side suffered a great loss, and finally retreated in disarray after more than 1,000 casualties.

The Tang army on the city wall, the number of casualties was only a few dozen.

The reason is simple, the Tang army on the city wall has the cover of the battlements, and after the shield is erected, it can very effectively prevent the arrows fired from the back and the projectile.

On the contrary, the Tang army on the city wall condescended to shoot arrows, which had obvious bonuses in terms of power and range.

Coupled with the dozen or so large bed crossbows on this wall, each shot is disastrous for the hitter.

The Turks' leather and wooden shields, inlaid with iron in their hands, were of no use under such a furious ballista.

Therefore, looking at the scene of the Turks retreating, don't talk about Guo Xin, the commander of the Anxi Army.

Even Liang Daya, a group leader who is equivalent to the level of a platoon commander, did not have any joy on his face, and some were just dignified.

Because they know that attacking a small city like Qiuzi City does not require any complicated siege equipment; Relying on the large number of people, just a few ladders can pose a deadly threat to them.

Of course, Hu Biao and other rookies didn't think so, and the scene of the two sides shooting just now frightened them.

For example, the warehouse manager, this middle-aged greasy man who has lived happily for half his life.

The moment the Turks retreated at the sound of the trumpet, an old soldier in front of him lowered the shield he had raised in his hand.

When he poked out a little bit of his brain and saw the scene of the enemy retreating in a hurry, the warehouse manager breathed a heavy sigh of relief.

Tell the truth! He was really frightened just now.

Dense arrows rained down on the shield in front of him, and his brain was blank at all.

I didn't think about it at all, and I had to fight back with a crossbow in my hand.

Fortunately, now, all this is over, he has not been hit, nothing has happened.

The next second, when he felt the wetness between his legs, he bent down his waist in embarrassment, trying to hide the fact that he was scared to pee.

It's a pity that this scene was seen by the old pawn in front of him.

The old pawn didn't reprimand him, but just laughed and scolded:

"A man who is almost six feet tall, why is he so cowardly; But it's okay, these veterans went into battle for the first time, and I don't know how much they were also scared to pee their pants.

After urinating a few more times, you won't pee again. ”

After hearing this, after more veterans looked at it, Xu thought of the troubles he had done when he joined the army many years ago, and immediately laughed.

At this moment, the warehouse manager longed for a big crack in the city wall, which allowed him to get into it.

At this moment, a sudden incident resolved the embarrassment of the warehouse manager, but he didn't want such a scene at all, and would rather everyone continue to laugh at him.

Because at such a time, it is said that there is a second-generation Gangzi in the family who has a ruthless relationship.

Finally recovered from the horror of being hit by a sharp arrow flying past his scalp in the previous battle.

In the face of such a real threat of death, he couldn't care about everything, going to the guilt, the task, the reason, and so on.

After throwing down a spear in his hand, without saying a word, he pulled away from the netizen who was blocking him, and ran towards the ramp of the city wall dozens of meters away.

Obviously, this frightened unlucky guy wants to get out of here.

Even theoretically, there was no way for him to escape.

Seeing this, Captain Wang, who was still laughing and tearful a second a hundred meters away, roared in his mouth: "Stop, stop, otherwise don't blame me for engaging in military law~"

But at this moment, Gangzi's brain can't hear anything at all.

So after a few seconds, Captain Wang put down a pair of gourd hammers in his hand, quickly took a bow from behind him, and beckoned him with an arrow.

The foot bow in Captain Wang's hand is much larger than the usual model, at least it has the standard of one stone in the Tang Dynasty.

If it is changed to the modern plane, it will take 79.32 kilograms to pull it full, and it will be more than 170 pounds of horror.

Even if Captain Wang let go in order to shoot quickly, that is, to draw the bow to a third of the degree; But this arrow was also fast and urgent, and it hit the back of Gangzi, and the arrows came out of his chest.

It's so good that he can't die, and Gangzi happened to run in front of the warehouse manager at that time.

At that time, the blood that splashed out was all over the face of the warehouse manager; There were even some that flew into the mouth of the warehouse manager shouting at Gangzi not to run.

In the end, under the sound of the warehouse management frantically vomiting, other netizens were colorless.

It was also after such a scene occurred that all netizens refused to run down the city wall and find a place to hide if the situation was critical......
