Three days later, through the unremitting efforts of 4,000 Yangtong militiamen and more than 2,000 Nangba militiamen, the multiple trenches outside Luoxe City were filled in, and the two sheep-horse walls surrounding the city wall were also torn down.
At this point, the conditions for carrying out ant attack on Luozhe are fully mature.
In the past three days, Lu Xiaoning has not been idle. In the name of Yala Xiangbo Mountain God, he has been working day and night to instigate rebellion against the Tibetan slaves who gathered in Luoche City.
The main purpose is to instill the concept of equality in Tibetan slaves and let them know that they are exploited by Tibetan nobles and temple monks not because of the sins they committed in their previous lives, but because the Tubo nobles and temple monks want to live forever. enslave them, so they must rise up and fight for equality.
As long as we are human, it is impossible to resist the temptation of all being created equal.
In the past, the Tubo slaves just didn't dare to think about it, but now they dare.
Because the Supreme God Yala Xiangbo Mountain God personally told them that all people are created equal.
Not surprisingly, the more than 300,000 Tibetan slaves gathered in Luoxue City have become a rapidly brewing volcano. Just a tiny spark can detonate this terrible volcano.
The antfu siege of the Anxi Army of the Tang Dynasty was just this spark.
However, before the ants attacked the city, Cui He had a conflict with Li Siye.
Li Siye insisted on personally leading the Modao team to attack the city, but Cui He refused to give in.
"Grandpa, you are getting older. It is better to leave it to the child first. I promise that the child will not ruin your reputation."
"What are you talking about? Your grandpa and I are only in my forties, not old yet. I am the first to take on such an important task and it is not your turn yet. Come with me."
As he spoke, Li Siye picked up the phoenix-winged bag and clasped it on his head, and then pulled down his neck. Only the eyes were left exposed on his head. He looked like a golden-armored general from heaven. It's really majestic.
Li Siye finally listened to Lu Tianshi's good advice. Looking back on the past, which time had he not exposed his chest and belly when he went into battle? Sometimes he even disdains to wear armor. He seems to have an obsession that wearing armor is a cowardly act.
But now, Li Siye is conscientiously putting on the armor of light, and also putting on two meaningful pockets.
Seeing that he could not persuade Li Siye, Cui He had no choice but to ask Lu Tianshi for help. He immediately crossed his hands and said, "Here, Lu Tianshi, can you please give us a review? Should Cui He do it for us this time?"
The next moment, Tianshi Lu's voice immediately sounded in the void: "You two, stop fighting. I have never personally experienced ascending to the lower world since I came down from the lower world. Let me do it this time."
Lu Xiaoning did have the idea of following Cui He's body to experience climbing first.
Speaking of ancient wars, the most cruel but also the most bloody is undoubtedly the ant siege.
What's more, this time the ant concubine is attacking the capital city of Tubo. Such an opportunity is rare.
After a pause, Lu Xiaoning said again: "But don't worry Cui He, I will not imprison your body. You will still control your body normally. I will only take action when there is danger."
Master Lu Tianshi said so, what else could Li Siye and Cui He say.
The father and son could only sing "Faitie" with their hands crossed to the sky above their heads.
While they were talking, Du Yue came in and reported: "General, the Modao Army has been assembled."
Lu Xiaoning immediately touched Cui He gently with his fingers, and his vision instantly expanded to the Tang Dynasty world.
Following Cui He out of the tent, he came to the front of the formation, where the Khotan army's two thousand soldiers were already waiting.
The basic combat unit of the Tang Army was the regiment, or battalion. A regiment usually consisted of two hundred people, and rarely three hundred people.
During combat, an army is formed with a specific number of regiments, such as twenty regiments for the central army, fourteen regiments for the left and right Yu Hou armies, thirteen regiments for the left and right armies, and thirteen regiments for the front and rear armies in most cases. , the seven armies have a total of 100 regiments and 20,000 troops, and each army has various types of infantry, cavalry, bows and crossbows, which can fight together or alone.
An army with 20,000 troops is the basic tactical-level combat unit of the Tang Army.
When encountering a strategic decisive battle, the number of troops in an army will far exceed 20,000, and sometimes they will be divided into several echelons.
For example, in the Battle of Xiangji Temple, which determined the outcome of the Tang Dynasty and the Anshi rebels, the number of Tang troops participating in the battle totaled more than 100,000, divided into three echelons. As a result, the Longyou Army, the first echelon, collapsed at the first touch. If it were not for the second echelon, The Anxi army of the echelon turned the tide, and the Tang Dynasty's Guozuo was likely to end early.
Sometimes, the Tang army would also form a single special legion.
Still at the Battle of Xiangji Temple, the Anxi Army formed a Mo Dao Soldier Corps composed of all Mo Dao Soldiers. At the critical moment when the Tang Army was about to collapse, Li Siye led the Mo Dao Soldier Corps to step forward and withstand Yiluo. The attack of the He Legion also prevented the end of the Tang Empire Guozuo.
It was Gao Xianzhi who first introduced Mo Dao soldiers to the Anxi battlefield.
But it was Li Siye who was the first to use Mo Dao soldiers intensively.
Before this, Li Siye had only gathered one or two regiments of Mo Dao soldiers.
But this time, Li Siye gathered ten regiments of Mo Dao soldiers at once.
Mo Daobing's strength is actually defeating cavalry with foot in field battles, and attacking cities is not his strength.
This time it is also a rush to put it on the shelves, because the Tubo army at the head of Luosu City is equipped with a large number of Zhangnu crossbows. The craftsmanship of Tubo Zhangnu crossbows is exactly the same as that of the Tang Dynasty. The armor-piercing arrows fired can easily pierce through it within thirty steps. Black Hammer Armor, so ordinary Anxi Army infantry wearing Black Hammer Armor are difficult to resist.
But Mingguang Armor can resist the crossbow to a great extent.
At least, after the armor-piercing arrows shot by Zhang Nu were pierced through the Mingguang Armor, their lethality was greatly reduced, and they were no longer enough to pose a fatal threat to the Mo Dao soldiers. Moreover, the Mo Dao soldiers were equipped with horizontal knives and round shields this time instead of Mo Dao. .
The Mo Dao is not needed when attacking a city. The Mo Dao is designed to deal with cavalry in field battles.
Cui He strode to the front of the formation. After standing still, without any more words, he directly drew the horizontal sword and shouted: "Attack!"
With this low but loud roar, Cui He threw away his body and rushed towards the city wall in front of him. Although he was covered with armor weighing more than a hundred kilograms, and he also brought weapons such as a horizontal sword, a bone ball, and a round shield, but Cui He was still walking as fast as flying. Lu Xiaoning, who was possessed by Cui He, could even hear the wind in his ears.
"Kill!" Two thousand Mo swordsmen roared.
Immediately, they all threw away their bodies and rushed towards the city wall in front of them.
In front of Modao Legion, the Yangtong Civilian Army had already rushed forward carrying wooden ladders. Their task was to lift more than fifty three-foot-long wooden ladders to the foot of the city wall and then set them up.
Behind the Modao Army, another six thousand Anxi Army were also following.
These 6,000 Anxi troops have changed their main weapons from horizontal knives to crossbows. Their mission is to suppress the Tibetan army and cover the Yangtong people's ladders and Mo Dao soldiers to attack the city.
…
Loose the city head.
Chisong Dezan felt that his eyes were about to be dazzled.
Is this the Tang Dynasty weapon? It's really majestic, he looks like a heavenly soldier or a heavenly general.
Because the sun had just risen at this time, and the Tang army was attacking the west wall, the sunlight reflected dazzling light on the Tang army's armor.
Many Tubo soldiers subconsciously stretched out their hands to block the reflection.
Zhong Bajie even shouted: "Don't stare at Tang Jun's Mingguang Armor!"
However, how could it be possible without staring at Tang Jun's Mingguang Armor? If you don't stare at the Mingguang Armor, you can't aim. Is it useful to shoot arrows randomly outside the city?
Tang Jun was obviously carefully selected.
Deliberately choose this moment to launch the attack.
Zhong Bajie soon realized something was wrong and immediately changed his tune.
"Cover your eyes with a sweat towel! Hada, go get the hada quickly!"
By the time the Tibetan troops at the top of the city covered their eyes with sweat towels or hadas, the sheep carrying ladders and civilian troops had already approached the base of the city wall, and the Fuyuan crossbow and bed crossbow set up at the top of the city could no longer hit them.
Zhong Bajie immediately yelled: "Don't worry about those traitors under the city wall. Aim all the Fuyuan crossbows, bed crossbows and Zhang Zhang crossbows at the Tang army and their Mo Dao soldiers. Shoot them to death, shoot them to death... …”
Along with Zhong Bajie's roar, a muffled bang sounded from the top of Luozhe City.
Along with the continuous muffled banging sound, a giant arrow as thick as an arm roared out.
One of the giant arrows hit Tang Jun's Mo Dao formation head-on, instantly piercing through two Mo Dao soldiers.
The Mingguang Armor can barely hold the Zhang Crossbow, but it has no chance of holding the Fuyuan Crossbow or the Bed Crossbow.
