The battle entered a fierce stage from the beginning.
Since there is no wood, large siege equipment cannot be built, but there are some simple wooden ladders.
The Tibetan army swarmed under the west wall of Seluburg. On one side, they used simple wooden ladders to attack the city, and on the other side, they used hundreds of oars and oars to form a tight shield wall to cover the gaps in the city wall dug by the slaves.
The Tang army at the top of the city fought back with rifles, crossbows, or rolling logs and rocks.
From time to time, stone fat poured down, and then torches were thrown, and the city wall suddenly fell into a sea of fire.
The shield wall of the Tubo army and the Tubo slaves hiding under the shield wall were also instantly destroyed in the sea of fire. From time to time, Tubo slaves rushed out of the sea of fire wailing, running around with flames all over their bodies.
But soon these slaves will die at the hands of Tubo Guiben.
Then more Tibetan slaves were driven out and continued to dig holes.
The battle was extremely fierce. The Tibetan army attacked Selüburg almost regardless of casualties, just trying to open a gap and break into Selüburg in the shortest possible time.
The whole process was recorded by Lu Xiaoning on camera.
Lu Xiaoning deliberately gave many close-up shots of the Tibetan army.
In these shots, the bravery of the Tibetan army is vividly displayed.
It must be said that it was no fluke that Tubo became the only unified regime on the snow-covered plateau and fought back and forth with the Tang Dynasty, which was at its peak.
…
Seeing the slaves being buried in the sea of fire one after another, Dobusan, who was standing at the rear to supervise the battle, was also very distressed.
Although these are just slaves, they are also property. The Tubo slaves are the property of the nobles. They have paid too much this time to capture Seluburg and open the passage to the Little Burud Kingdom.
Fortunately, as long as Xiao Bolu is taken down, these can be replenished.
At that moment, Dobusan shouted sternly: "Give me an order. Whoever is the first to enter Seluburg will be rewarded with ten oxen, twenty horses, one hundred sheep, and female slaves. Ten more female slaves will be rewarded to him!" "
The messenger immediately galloped towards the front of the formation with Dobusan's command arrow in hand.
After a while, the Tubo army cheered like a roaring mountain and a tsunami.
Amid the cheers, the Tibetan army gained more momentum and became more aggressive.
At a certain moment, there was a sudden click on the west wall of Selüburg.
Then the city wall that had just been repaired yesterday collapsed once again.
As the city wall collapsed, a huge plume of smoke and dust spread instantly.
Seeing this, the Tibetan elite soldiers who were waiting dozens of steps away suddenly cheered louder.
Before the smoke and dust cleared, Dobusan suddenly urged his horse and was the first to rush towards the gap in the city wall.
Thousands of Tibetan elites who had been waiting for a long time were also waving various weapons and rushing towards the gap. The first one to enter the city would get ten cows, twenty horses and a hundred sheep! And there are female slaves, ten female slaves!
God of Yala Xiangbo Mountain, please protect me!
…
Tian Zhen led five thousand Tang troops to a mountain ridge ten miles away.
At this time, the smoke and dust covering the gap had been blown away by the wind. Looking down from the mountain ridge, you could clearly see the Tibetan army swarming in through the gap in the west wall of Seluburg.
Seeing this, Tian Zhen almost fell off his horse.
Or is it too late? The Tubo army has already broken into the city?
Now he was really hurt by Bian Lingcheng, the eunuch.
When the army of Fengjieshuai arrived at Xiaobolu, he was the first to be spared.
However, the matter has come to this, and there is no choice but to immediately engage in counterattack with exhausted troops.
Originally, after a night of rapid marching, the army was exhausted and had to rest for a while to regain its strength before joining the battle, but now there was no time.
"Pass my general's order and all armies will attack immediately."
Tian Zhen completely ignored the life and death of his soldiers and issued the order to attack.
The Anxi army, which was short of men and horses, bit the bullet and launched an attack.
But I saw the dark Tang army, led by the sound of war drums and horns, flooding down from the low mountain ridges, and then advancing along the open and flat Sailu River Valley.
Hopefully, Selüburg can still be saved.
…
"That's Tian Zhen's Gui Nhon Army, right? We just arrived now, it's too late."
On the high mountain on the south bank of the Sailu River, there is a lookout tower for the Tibetan army.
At this time, the chief of Xiaoyangtong, Rao Miwo, Dalun Bojiba, and Living Buddha Odan were all on the lookout. Standing on the lookout, you could not only overlook Selu Castle, but also see the Quy Nhon Army more than ten miles away. .
Of course, we can only get a rough idea, and it’s impossible to see clearly.
Bojeba paused and then said: "Your Majesty, this battle is over."
"Yes." Rao Miwo also breathed a sigh of relief, finally taking over Seluburg.
Capturing Sailu Fort not only means opening the door to Xiaobolu, but also means that the Tibetan army has regained the initiative in the Sailu Valley. It will be a matter of time before the Tang army is expelled from Xiaobolu.
…
However, at this time in Selüburg, it was a different scene.
The little sheep and the prince Dobsang were truly worthy of the reputation of the Tubo God of War. When he was the first to rush into the gap, the smoke had not dispersed, causing the war horse to miss the mark and break its leg, and Dobsang was also thrown to the ground.
But this did not affect Dobusan at all, he got up and continued to rush forward.
In the end, Dobsan was still the first to break through the gap and enter Selüburg.
However, after charging into Selüburg, Dobsan was a little dumbfounded.
Originally, he thought that after entering the gap, he would be greeted by the infantry of the Tang army who came to block the gap and the panicked Han people in Seluburg who fled.
However, this is not the case.
What appeared in front of Dobsan at this moment was actually...a wooden fence two people high?
The Tang army actually knew that the gap would collapse and built a wooden fence early?
I saw that the entire wooden fence was in the shape of a semicircle, with a radius of about thirty steps, covering the entire gap.
What made Dobusan even more vaguely uneasy was that the Tang army had been guarding the wooden fence for a long time, and there was no chaos at all. Yes, there was no sign of panic at all. When Seluburg was breached, the Tang army did not panic at all. ?
However, the matter has come to this point, retreat is impossible, Dobsan can only bite the bullet and rush forward.
Even if Dobusan doesn't rush forward, Tubo Guiben who is following him will push him forward.
Encouraged by yaks, horses, sheep and female slaves, the Tibetan warriors had already become red-blooded.
Sure enough, Dobusan only hesitated for a moment, and dozens of Guiben rushed in front of him. Behind him, more Tubo Guiben swarmed in, and thousands of people quickly filled the open space in the gap. Full.
Immediately afterwards, the Tubo army launched a tidal wave of attacks towards the wooden fence guarded by the Tang army.
Even the three-foot-high city wall was breached by them, not to mention the ten-foot-high wooden fence.
The Tibetan soldiers stacked up and set up human ladders directly under the wooden fence, stepping on their companions to launch an attack from above.
The Tang army who was guarding the wooden fence smashed down the huge rolling log, which made the Tibetan army cry for their fathers and mothers. They fell to the ground one after another, and some were directly smashed to death.
The momentum of the Tubo army suddenly stagnated.
By this time, Dobsan could no longer care about anything else.
At that moment, Dobusan shouted sternly: "Continue to charge, Tang soldiers are young, as long as someone kills the wooden fence, they will be finished. Listen to me, the first person to kill the wooden fence will be rewarded with ten yaks!"
The Tibetan army, which was already a little depressed, suddenly regained its spirit.
So the attack continued. The Tubo army continued to set up human ladders and rushed upward, while the Tang army continued to throw rolling logs down.
After a moment of stalemate, Tang Jun's rolling logs seemed to have been used up, and he began to throw hay down again. In an instant, bundles of hay were thrown down.
Dobusan couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw this.
"Tang Jun has no rolling logs anymore, haha!"
"These Han people are so stupid. They hit people with hay!"
"The first warrior to kill the wooden fence will be rewarded with fifty cows!"
The Tubo army became more and more excited, stepping on the ladder and rushing up.
Just as they were about to attack the wooden fence, a group of Mo Dao soldiers suddenly appeared from above.
As soon as these dozens of demon-like Mo Dao soldiers appeared, they caused fatal damage to the Tibetan army.
As Mo Dao's cold light flashed, one after another the Tubo soldiers fell down from the wooden fence with their heads missing. Among them was the Tubo war god Duobusang, who was also beaten down.
Dobsan rolled over and got up from the ground.
Just as he was about to rush upward again, Dobsan's eyes suddenly froze.
Then Dobsang roared at the top of his lungs: "Retreat the troops quickly, retreat the troops quickly, retreat the troops quickly..."
However, it was useless no matter how loud Dobusan's throat was. The Tibetan army crowded in the gap still continued to advance and launched a fierce attack like a tide towards the wooden fence guarded by the Tang army.
