Of course, it is not impossible to attack Dingxiang City. With Luo Zhang's artillery, there is still a chance, but even so, Dingxiang City is still not that easy to attack.
As mentioned before, the south wall of Dingxiang City is surrounded by depressions, which cannot be crossed by horses or people. There is only one road leading to the south city that is feasible. The enemy only needs to hold this place and no one can get through. It can be said that one man is in charge of the barrier. Don't open it!
This makes it difficult for Datang to attack Dingxiang City even if it has artillery. After all, if you set up artillery and want to bombard it, the enemy will rush out to harass you as soon as possible. Even if you want to bombard it, you won't have time. I can't even run away.
Therefore, Dingxiang City must not be lost, but must be defended.
As Li Jing said, even if we fight to the last man, Dingxiang City cannot be lost!
Even if Dingxiang City is lost, they still have to step over his body, which shows Li Jing's determination!
Li Jing was like this, and the same was true for King Zuo Xian who attacked the Tang Dynasty. He led an army of 400,000 to besiege Dingxiang City. However, after fighting for so many days, not only did he fail to capture Dingxiang City, he also lost almost all the foreign troops, and even more so. The soldiers of the Western Turks suffered heavy losses. If this news was spread back to the Western Turks, one can imagine his life.
Therefore, King Zuo Xian must produce a result that convinces everyone, so that he can make up for the mistakes he made.
The start of this convincing achievement is to capture Dingxiang City. Only by capturing Dingxiang City can we go all the way south and launch an attack on Datang.
When the sun rose, the armies of both sides were ready, and a battle began with the sound of drums.
From the beginning, both sides tried their best, one side went all out to attack and the other side went all out to defend.
The sound of artillery resounded throughout the battlefield, and the wooden lumps were thrown out of the city for free. The Western Turks' troops also rushed forward like crazy, regardless of the blows of the artillery and wooden lumps.
King Zuo Xian personally supervised the battle, walking around the battlefield, urging the army to attack, attack, and attack again.
The attacks on the northern city wall and the eastern city wall were not bad. Although they suffered a lot of resistance, they were somewhat effective. At least, under the supervision of King Zuoxian, the soldiers of the Western Turks finally came to the city and climbed up the city wall. .
Although they were attacked by rolling oil, rolling logs and rocks, they still tenaciously attacked the city.
But the west is different from the east and north. There are only tens of thousands of foreigners here, and the person in charge here is still Changsun Chong. It seems that these foreigners and Changsun Chong are all abandoned people. King Zuo Xian gave Changsun Chong After giving the death order and unable to attack the city, he turned to Changsun Chong. By then, all the responsibility for the death of so many foreigners would be borne by Changsun Chong.
Behind the foreign army, Chang Sun Chong was talking to several foreign generals. It could be seen from the faces of several foreign generals that what Chang Sun Chong said was not good.
"This King Zuo Xian doesn't regard us as aliens as human beings at all, so he attacks the city wall? If he could attack the city wall, he would have attacked it long ago!"
"That's right, when we came here, there were 100,000 troops, but now? There are only 30,000 to 40,000 people left, and we are still allowed to attack the city wall. This is because we want all the aliens to be annihilated!"
"The Western Turks say nicely that we should be treated as the same people, but as everyone knows, they just treat us as coolies, then we should be treated as vassals, and then we should be treated as the lowest level of human beings!"
"Made, this battle is impossible to fight!"
"Chang Sun Chong, you have told us so much, is there anything you can do?"
This was what Changsun Chong was waiting for. He glanced at everyone and said: "There is indeed a way, but I don't know if you are willing to do it with me!"
"It's now time, so don't be so pretentious and tell me if you have any good ideas!"
"Leave!" Changsun Chong spat out two words.
"Leave?" Everyone was shocked. They thought Changsun Chong would have some good idea, but it turned out to be this way.
"Yes, it is to leave, but it is not to leave as you think, but to leave the army. Leaving here, I know a road can lead to Gaoguli. If we go there, we can completely carve out our own world. As long as we can By occupying Gaoguli, not only me, but also you will have a piece of paradise belonging to your alien race, and you will become the real masters there!" Changsun Chong said inflammatoryly.
