"Okay, we'll leave immediately." Xu Tong nodded and said to the messenger.
Gesang's eyes suddenly turned red. He looked at the palace guards posing together and bowed his hands to Xu Te: "Wait a minute, General Xu, something will happen soon."
"What's the matter?" Xu Te had already climbed onto his horse. The horse was excited and was about to run.
Xu Te had no choice but to hold his horse and look at Gesang.
Gesang drew out his machete and pointed it at Provans, his eyes full of sorrow: "The general's palace guards have died too many, and the general will take revenge."
Although Provans and others were ready to die, when they heard that Gesang was going to kill them, they were still pale with fear.
After all, no one wants to die, and the security team only captured them and did not abuse them.
Xu Te didn't have a good impression of Provans and others, and he originally didn't want to get involved in this matter.
But Provans is his prisoner after all, and Gesang is undoubtedly challenging his authority by doing this.
"General Gesang, where does Zampo have the power to dispose of Provans?" After thinking about it, Xu Te found a reason.
Provans and others, who had lowered their heads in despair, looked at Xu Te gratefully after hearing this.
Hearing Xu Te carry Zamp out, Gesang glared at Provans bitterly.
He was unwilling to bow to Xu Te, and his voice was extremely sad: "General Xu, the death of the last general's soldiers was in vain?"
After finishing speaking, he looked at the palace guards who were carrying stretchers. They were already arranged in rows and rows, hundreds of them densely packed.
"Now that they are on the stretcher, most of them can be cured. Don't worry about that." Xu Te looked at the palace guard on the stretcher and said with a smile.
Gesang couldn't believe Xu Te's words: "They seem to be dead, can they still be saved?"
"They were just seriously injured and unconscious, not dead. I believe Zhaojiazhuang can rescue them." Xu Te looked at Gesang with a smile and explained, his tone full of confidence.
Gesang still couldn't believe it: "Here in Tubo, even if you are seriously injured, there is no hope, let alone if you are already unconscious."
"General Gesang, look, are any of our dead?" Xu Te asked instead of answering his question.
"Indeed, General Xu has not killed anyone so far," Gesang thought for a moment, nodded, and then the topic suddenly changed, "But none of you have been seriously injured."
"Of course, because Zhaojiazhuang believes in the supremacy of the lives of soldiers, and the first priority in fighting is the lives of soldiers, so Zhaojiazhuang has its own doctor camp and nurse camp. As long as we can rescue them, we will never give up." Xu Te replied decisively, his tone Full of pride.
Gesang found it unbelievable and shook his head: "There is no point in fighting without dying. If you don't die, you can't call it fighting."
"Zhaojiazhuang fought so many battles, and the number of deaths was less than 2,000." In order to convince Gesang, Xu Te directly presented the data.
Gesang was stunned and his eyes widened: "Zhaojiazhuang fought three wars with the Hu people, but only two people were killed. If it were Tibet, it would be at least 100,000."
"General Gesang, so you believe in Zhaojiazhuang's medical skills." Xu Te turned the conversation back and patiently persuaded him.
When Gesang heard this, he felt better. He stepped forward and bowed respectfully to Xu Te and Chen Hua: "On behalf of Tubo, the last general would like to thank the two generals for their righteousness in rescuing the Tibetan soldiers."
Xu Te and Chen Hua looked at each other and nodded: "No problem, General Gesang, don't worry, let's drive!"
After saying that, he led the security regiment, the kingdom and the Hu cavalry to the west.
Half an hour later, the security team, Wang Guo, Hu people and Tubo palace guards had arrived at the west gate.
The sounds of fighting continued to come from the front, with clanging and clanging sounds that shook the sky.
It was Hei Xuan who was defending the west gate. His troops suffered heavy losses in the battle with the security group.
On the surface, he is a commander of thousands, but in fact, he currently only has 60% of his troops, which is 600 soldiers and horses.
Long Chen has more troops than Heixuan, almost 90%, but he has to defend the east gate, north gate, and south gate, and each gate only has an average of 300 troops.
From this perspective, the west gate of Heixuan has the largest number of soldiers and horses, six hundred, because the camp where Larigeyo is stationed is also at the west gate.
When Lazhigeyu heard the big talk and was arrested, he felt extremely painful.
When Brother Ji wanted to go to Zamp's house to see if Zamp was dead, he persuaded him to prepare for the big talk. Unexpectedly, Brother Ji turned a deaf ear to it.
But it's still too late, after all, the palace has only more than 3,000 troops, while the Grand Palace has more than 10,000 troops.
The ten thousand soldiers and horses in his hands are the strongest guarantee for Dalunfu, and Zampu has to consider these.
He firmly believed that Provans could defend Dalufu because he had seen the entire Dalufu and it was a strong castle.
How strong is it? Even after the Hu people invaded Qingtang City, they besieged Dalun Mansion for more than a month and could not capture it.
Geji was able to reduce tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and not only had the best green salt mine in the world, but also had the richest wealth in Tubo.
In Lazhigueu's mind, Geji is Zampu in his mind.
Bah, does Song Yu dare to be called Zan Pu? Strength is not as good as big talk, and fighting a barbarian is not as good as big talk.
The reason why he became Zampu was not just because of his ancestors.
Thinking of this, he immediately ordered to break out the stronghold, attack Qingtang City, defeat the palace guards who attacked Dalun Mansion, then break into the palace and rescue Dalun.
He was still confident in attacking Qingtang City. After all, the entire palace had only 3,500 guards.
The palace requires at least two thousand soldiers and horses to attack Da Lun Mansion, while it only needs 1,500 soldiers and horses to defend Qingtang City.
Qingtang City also has four gates. This small number of troops is less than 400 for each gate, which is not enough for him to cram into his teeth.
He immediately led 10,000 troops and attacked the west gate directly.
Of course, when he attacked the west gate, he did not rely solely on manpower, but also had siege equipment.
Although these instruments cannot be compared with those of the Hu people and the Song Dynasty, they are also the most powerful in the entire Tubo.
These siege equipment include trebuchets, flying ladders, cloud ladders, and goose carts.
This goose cart is quite special. It looks like a ladder at the top, and there is a hut at the bottom, which is covered with iron and has four wheels.
Because it is shaped like a goose, it is called a goose cart and has powerful attack and defense capabilities.
Larigeyo was fully armed and riding on a horse. He wore full body armor. Even the war horse also had a vest.
His helmet is even more unique. It is decorated with large and small Buddha statues and is made of pure copper.
His breastplate is not a willow leaf armor, but a piece from the stomach up, which can protect himself to the maximum extent.
Lazhigeyue carefully looked at everything in front of him, looking at the majestic war scene in front of him, feeling very satisfied.
Deputy Chief Gyatso was dressed similarly to him. He was about forty years old, with a beard and not many wrinkles. He looked several years younger than he actually was.
At this time, Gyatso was riding beside him.
He looked at everything in front of him and said with a smile: "General Larri, according to this offensive situation, it will take less than two hours, maybe one hour, to capture the west gate."
In fact, Larigeyo didn't like Gyatso at all. This Gyatso was the undercover agent arranged by Brother Da Lun and around him.
He not only has the function of supervising him, but also can terminate his power at critical moments according to the situation.
In other words, Gyatso appears to be under his control, but in fact he is a spare tire.
Larigeyo knew that Gyatso had a special bronze medal in his hand. This bronze medal was given to him by Da Lun.
Of course, this is just a legend, and everyone in the army knows it.
Although Gyatso never showed the bronze medal, Larigeyo believed it was true.
It is impossible to rely on anyone to completely hand over the largest number of troops in Tubo to one person.
Therefore, Larigeyo has always been cautious and loyal to the big talk, never having second thoughts.
"General Gyatso, this is not necessarily the case." Seeing Gyatso coming over at this time, Larige thought for a while, "Although there are less than a thousand defenders at the west gate, there are reinforcements in the city."
He must answer in this way to avoid the trap of Gyatso's speech.
Because if he did not capture the west gate within an hour or two, Gyatso suddenly took out the bronze medal and terminated his command.
Therefore, he must first explain the difficulties to prevent Gyatso from finding a reason to usurp power.
Gyatso felt a little unhappy when he saw that Lage was not fooled.
He scanned the battlefield, trying to find a reason, a weakness, or a trap.
Gyatso fell into deep thought and did not talk to Larigeyo again.
Larigeyo saw that he was deep in thought and knew that this person was looking for his own weakness.
Lazhigeyue ignored him, but concentrated on looking at the battlefield, trying to perfect the battlefield offensive, not giving his opponent a chance.
Eight thousand soldiers and horses shot arrows, and the arrows flew towards the west gate like locusts, making the snowflakes in the sky pale.
Each of the six catapults was operated by twenty soldiers, constantly throwing stones weighing about fifty kilograms against the city wall.
Twenty flying ladders, ten cloud ladders, and five goose carts were firmly nailed to the city wall, and more than 500 people were continuously attacking the city wall.
The commander of the attack was Thousand Commander Dundup. He could not commit a thousand troops to attack at once. This was due to the lack of weapons for the attack.
Even so, it caused great pressure on the defenders.
Heixuan ordered five hundred defenders to defend the city wall, leaving only one hundred defenders at the city gate.
There is no way, his troops are too few, this is the only way.
There are piles of stones behind the city gate to prevent Da Lunfu soldiers from attacking here.
In the past, he was most worried about the city gate, but now that there are stones, he feels a little more at ease.
Seeing the arrows like locusts in the sky, there is no counterattack ability at all, only defensive ability.
He asked two hundred soldiers to hold spears, and kept swinging the spears to shoot down the arrows of the Dalunfu soldiers.
Two hundred soldiers, armed with swords, spears, stones, and gold juice, fought to kill the Dalunfu soldiers on the ladders, flying ladders, and goose carts.
At this time, the situation is very favorable to the offensive side, and the offensive side focuses on defense.
A Wang, a centurion from Dalufu wearing willow leaf armor, roared, holding a rattan shield and a scimitar in his hand, and climbed up the ladder.
Behind him were fifty soldiers, holding rattan shields and long knives or swords in their hands, shouting great sermons.
The palace guards poured down the boiling gold juice, and suddenly the strong stench of feces flew down from the tower.
The so-called golden juice is fecal juice. Because its color is like gold, it is named golden juice.
Gold juice is not only foul-smelling, but also vicious. If you are stained by it, as long as your skin has slight problems, you may be infected. In severe cases, you may even die.
When Awang asked about the stench in the air, he didn't dare to be careless and immediately raised the vine shield in his hand.
Bang bang, the golden juice finally touched his vine shield.
Although Awang's vine shield blocked most of the gold juice, there was still some gold juice on his body.
Fortunately, Nga Wang was wearing a willow leaf armor, and the golden juice flowed down it.
But it wasn't over yet, the willow leaf armor was a vine shield after all, and golden juice actually leaked through its small gaps.
What's even more disgusting is that the gold juice stains the ladder, which not only smells bad, but also makes the ladder slippery.
Fortunately for Awang, he did not go up the flying ladder. The flying ladder is not as wide as the ladder. The soldiers who became slippery with gold juice are very likely to fall from the flying ladder.
He forced himself to endure the stench of the golden juice, pushed his feet hard, and ran ten more steps.
There were several golden juices in between, although it was disgusting, it didn't bother him.
Bang bang, bang bang, he suddenly felt something extremely heavy, which almost made his arm break.
Under the heavy blow from that thing, the vine shield was almost broken through.
Fortunately, this rattan shield is made of extremely tough rattan, and it is also coated with tung oil and inlaid with seven umbrella-shaped copper sheets. It is not only light, but also quite strong and elastic.
After the object hit the vine shield, it followed the direction of the vine shield and hit the ten-man long vine shield below Awang.
When Awang took a look at it, he realized that this was actually a rolling stone.
It turned out to be a rolling stone, and it was heavy. It didn't break through, which made Awang confused for a moment.
He suddenly saw the greasy gold juice on the vine shield in the hand of the ten-capion commander below, and finally understood the reason why the vine shield was not penetrated by the rolling stone.
The rolling stone was originally easy to roll, but the vine shield had extremely smooth gold juice on it, and the vine shield itself was elastic, so it managed to escape the disaster.
He couldn't help but feel confident and rushed up the ladder.
He couldn't help but be overjoyed at this time. It turned out that he had reached the city wall.
Of course the city wall was not empty. A soldier raised his spear and stabbed him hard.
The spear was extremely long, about one foot, while the scimitar in his hand was only three feet.
Not only that, the opponent is on top and protected by walls, so he is safe from a distance.
Not only is Nga Wang at the bottom, but the ladder is also very slippery.
If Awang fights with the opponent head-on, not only will the scimitar not be able to reach the opponent, but he will also be very likely to be stabbed by the opponent.
Even if he didn't get stabbed, he would still fall off the slippery ladder.
It's three feet above the ground. If you fall, you'll be seriously injured at least.
The opponent had already stabbed him, and Awang couldn't dodge even if he wanted to. After all, he was on top of the ladder.
Seeing that the spear was coming, Awang had an idea and directly greeted it with the vine shield in his hand.
With a pop, the palace guard's spear pierced the vine shield and passed through the vine shield at the same time.
The vine shield suddenly deformed, and Awang was happy instead of angry.
Awang spread his legs as wide as possible and squatted on both sides of the ladder, using the ladder to support his body tightly to prevent him from falling.
After ensuring that his body would not fall, Awang exerted force with his left hand and pulled down with all his strength.
The palace guard wanted to take back the spear, but was tightly clamped by the vine shield.
The palace guard shouted and used both hands to pull back the spear.
Awang put his whole body weight on the vine shield, trying to pull down the spear.
In this way, both sides are in a stalemate to see which one will prevail in the end.
Awang was extremely powerful, and the vine shield gradually moved closer to him, and the opponent's spear also moved closer to him in shame.
The palace guard was not as strong as Awang, and the spear in his hand gradually slipped towards Awang, and finally he had to give up.
He was forced to throw away the spear in his hand and draw the sword from his waist.
His reaction was extremely fast, but Awang reacted faster than him. He threw away the vine shield and jumped directly onto the city wall.
He had already stepped onto the city wall, and with the scimitar in his hand, before the opponent could draw his sword, he had already chopped down the palace guard.
Awang couldn't help but be overjoyed. He finally climbed up the city wall and slashed at another palace guard with the scimitar in his hand.
Awang cut a bloody path, and the ten captains and Dalunfu soldiers behind him continued to attack from the ladder.
Lageyo couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw it. He gave Gyatso a provocative look and beat the war drum as hard as he could.
When the officers and soldiers of Dalun Mansion saw that Awang rushed to the city wall, their morale was boosted. They shouted loudly and attacked the city wall together.
