Datang: My identity as prince was exposed by Li Er

Shibao City is located in Longyou Fortress.

Once the Tibetan army breaks through this defensive fortress, the plains within the pass will be leveled.

The Tubo people are good at riding. If Shibao City is defeated, the Tubo people can easily ride eastward to plunder and kill.

Because of its strong mobility, it would be very difficult for Datang to counterattack.

Xue Rengui knew this truth, so this city could not be broken. Even if the lives of more than 30,000 soldiers in the city were blocked here, Xue Rengui would not be able to take a step back.

Of course, even if Shibao City's military status was not so important, as an important frontier town of the Tang Dynasty and as the territory of the Tang Dynasty, Xue Rengui would not be able to give it up.

This is called the bloody nature of men in the Tang Dynasty.

In fact, Xue Rengui is not the only one with such a bloody nature?

There were originally more than 30,000 soldiers here, but after three days of offensive and defensive confrontation, there are now only more than 25,000 soldiers.

But in the eyes of these men, you will always see only anger and never flinch.

Why do people in Tang Dynasty have species?

No one knows the answer, and no one knows how this kind of blood is condensed.

The defensive battle of Stone Castle continues.

Outside the city were more than 200,000 black Tubo soldiers.

Songtsen Gampo spent three times in a row to attack this dangerous city but failed, and he was already furious.

He waved his hand and made no reservations.

In the Chinese army formation outside the city, a siege vehicle was slowly rolled out.

The main body of the siege vehicle is a large wooden stake four or five inches thick. The front end of the wooden stake is cone-shaped, and the tip of the cone points directly to the city gate. The bottom is supported by four large wooden wheels. From the central military formation to the city gate, it is about Two miles away, the siege vehicle slowly advanced forward, and only started to accelerate in vain when it approached the city gate.

On the city tower, Xue Rengui was very anxious when he saw this, and quickly mobilized 3,000 people to block the city gate with everything in the city.

Xue Rengui shouted loudly:"Quickly, take out the black powder and tie it together!"

"General, we're running out of gunpowder!"

Xue Rengui hesitated slightly, then twitched his cheek and shouted:"No matter! First, resist this attack. The city gate cannot be broken, and you cannot be stingy with firearms. Otherwise, if the enemy sees the flaw, the rest of the family will be in danger."

It has to be said that Xue Rengui is a wise general.

There is a difference between a wise general and a fierce general. Such people are not only competing with the disparity in force, they are also competing with each other in their hearts! When the generals receive orders, they will pass the orders to the soldiers at all costs. , the soldiers tied the fuses of the firearms together, lit them with torches and threw them down the city wall.

There was a loud bang, and the city wall swayed slightly. When they looked down, the siege vehicle had been blown away. In the shape of the cart, only a few dozen of the hundreds of enemy soldiers who were pushing the carts fled in panic. Before they could reach the front of the Chinese army's formation, the enemy generals rushed towards them and beheaded the deserters one by one..Everywhere you can see, there are corpses and broken limbs, all covered with blood and white broken bones. There are also countless wounded soldiers lying in a pool of blood, helplessly wailing and groaning. On top of the city, both the attacking and defending sides are still risking their lives. Fighting, the enemy soldiers who climbed to the top of the city were killed by several defenders with swords and halberds, or several enemy soldiers chose the weakest spot to take advantage of the situation, and several people attacked together, dancing with machetes like tigers and tigers. , and then was swarmed and chopped down by the defenders.

Xue Rengui's face was covered with blood, and he could no longer tell whether it belonged to the enemy or his own.

The deputy general ran back and forth on the horse road at the head of the city, shouting orders in a hoarse voice, running around and looking around in a hurry.

The fighting was fierce and bloody, and the city was whimpering in the afterglow of the setting sun. Under the fiery red sky smeared by the sunset, there seemed to be a pair of cold and ruthless eyes that regarded everything as a rotten dog, coldly watching the killings of human beings. Watching countless lives that have given their lives but have never been recorded in history disappear from the world and enter reincarnation again. The corners of the earth are beginning to grow cold, and the sky's song clouds are beginning to fly. The flag is about to collapse, and how can the lone general rely on it?

Until the sun rises completely Hidden below the horizon, there was a sudden sound of gold from the Chinese army outside the city. The enemy troops attacking the city retreated like a tide, throwing down thousands of corpses inside and outside the city wall.

After the enemy troops completely retreated, Xue Rengui sat down on the ground helplessly. Leaning against the arrow pile on the city wall, he let out a long sigh.

This lonely city was defended for another day.

It was difficult, tragic, cruel, but helpless. All the sacrifices were just to survive.

The deputy general handed a bowl of white water to Xue Rengui.

In the past few days, this young general has established a supreme status in their hearts.

Now Xue Rengui's prestige has reached its peak!

Xue Rengui shook his head:"Give it to the brothers first, I am not thirsty."

Now the situation is getting more and more dangerous.

When Xue Rengui sent the people away, the daily baggage of these 30,000 soldiers became a problem. Before the war started, the food in the city was already stretched.

If Li Shimin's reinforcements did not arrive, Xue Rengui didn't know how many days he could hold on.

In addition, after four consecutive failures to break into the city, Songtsen Gampo's anger may have reached the peak.

Tomorrow, maybe he really won't hold back.

If an army of 200,000 They all attacked the city and crawled towards the top of the city desperately. How could Xue Rengui, 30,000 people, defend the city?

"Someone come!"

Xue Rengui narrowed his eyes and shouted.

Not long after, the deputy general came over in a hurry

"How much black powder is left in the city?"

After Xue Rengui asked, the deputy general fell silent,"There are probably more than five hundred."

This time the city was defended in a hurry. Except for the black powder in the city and the more than 5,000 musketeers, the rest were cold weapons. It is impossible for Xue Rengui to expel the musketeers.

This is his treasure. Everyone in the city can die. These five thousand Nothing can happen to the Musketeers.

This is reserved for Li Shimin for the decisive battle.

Xue Rengui gritted his teeth:"Tonight! Find more than a thousand brothers and sneak into the enemy camp……"

The deputy general was stunned.

Xue Rengui said with tears in his eyes:"Maybe you won't be able to come back... Gather the people, I will tell you personally!"

Not long after, all the troops gathered.

Xue Rengui suppressed his sadness and shouted sternly:"This general will need a thousand dead men."

He finished explaining the situation.

The scene suddenly became quiet.

Not even a few breaths have passed

"I'll go!"

"I'll go!"

"paralysis! I am an untouchable, but if I die, I will still have ten thousand dollars to give to my mother-in-law and my children. It is worth it!"

"Capsule ball! I saw how miserable these Tubo people were. If I bombed one to save money and two to make a profit, I went to explode into the crowd and fuck them!"

There are more and more shouts like this.

Xue Rengui is an iron-clad man, with tears gradually filling his eyes.

"Report, report, report!"

"Report! Report! Report!"

"General, Wei Chigong’s troops have arrived from behind!"

"On the left, Cheng Yaojin's team of more than a hundred red cannons arrived!"

"On the right, Niu Jin and thirty thousand cavalry arrived!"

"Directly behind, 200,000 Dragon Flags of the Tang Dynasty were flying, His Majesty the Heavenly Khan... there was still three miles of land!"
