To the west of Songzhou City.
Looking at the Tibetan army getting closer and closer, Li Daozong raised his hand high.
A group of Tang Army generals immediately clenched the weapons in their hands after Li Daozong raised his hand and pointed diagonally forward.
There were countless catapults waiting in formation behind the military town. These catapults also benefited from Xu Yunyan's arrangements.
They are all the simplest catapults designed by Xu Yunyan.
It's just that the place where the catapult placed the stones was not stones, but clay pots one after another.
Next to the pottery pot, there were several Tang soldiers holding torches waiting in formation.
The Tubo army had no idea of what they were about to encounter. They rushed forward quickly. Seeing the Tang army standing motionless like a wooden man in front of them, they kept shouting to kill the Tang army and gain extraordinary glory. His most courageous side is revealed.
But just when the Tibetan soldier rushed forward triumphantly, preparing to surprise the enemy on the opposite side, Li Daozong also waved down the hand he had held up for a while.
As Li Daozong waved his hand down, many Tang soldiers also waved their hands down, but they were not empty-handed, but held some tools in their hands and struck them on the trebuchet.
In an instant, the stone machine began to show its power. After being ignited, pieces of clay pots were thrown out, crossing the Tang army's formation and hitting the area where the Tibetan soldiers were in front. Suddenly, a series of explosions sounded.
Suddenly there was an explosion, which caused the Tibetan soldiers to fall on their backs.
"What's going on? Did the ground move? No, why did it become like this all of a sudden?"
The uncle of Songtsan cadre in the rear was dumbfounded at the scene in front of him.
"Are you kidding me? How could such a tragic situation happen?"
Although the uncle of Songtsan cadre was quite surprised, the Tibetan soldiers who were blown away by the explosion and howling in pain were stunned on the spot.
"What...what's going on?"
One after another, the Tubo soldiers looked at the people nearby who were either blown to pieces or missing arms and legs, holding their own stumps and wailing, making them in no mood to step forward and fight again. The Tang army faced the enemy, but was dumbfounded at the scene in front of them.
"It's absolutely amazing. This magical weapon is actually so powerful. It would kill at least tens of thousands of them in one attack."
Li Daozong and other Tang generals were behind the military formation, and they were even more proud when they saw the tragic situation of the Tibetan soldiers in front of the military formation.
"Is this how Tubo Xiaoxiao came to invade our Tang Dynasty? This is the consequence of your coming to invade the Tang Dynasty."
Li Daozong couldn't help but sigh. The power of the magic weapon was beyond his imagination. The effect of the magic weapon was impeccable. The Tang army operating next to the trebuchet was temporarily stunned because of the amazing effect of the magic weapon thrown by him. Forgot about attacking.
When suddenly some Tibetan soldiers reacted, "Brothers, avenge our people!"
When the Tubo soldiers shouted and rushed towards the Tang army's formation again, these people realized that now was not the time to be stunned, but the time to continue throwing magical weapons.
Soon, the second round of magic weapon was ignited and thrown out from the trebuchet again. When it fell into the Tubo army formation, there was another earth-shattering explosion.
This time Li Daozong seemed to have thought of something unexpected: "What a pity, what a pity."
Although they successfully killed and wounded a large number of Tubo soldiers, these Tubo soldiers were once again stunned on the spot, and many of them retreated to the outermost distance that the trebuchets they found could attack. narrowly escaped with his life.
But it was a pity to see Li Daozong not staying there. The deputy next to him
The general looked at Li Daozong curiously and asked.
"What is there to be sorry about, General? We have already reduced their strength by more than 30% in two rounds of attacks. If we have another round, they will probably collapse."
Li Daozong nodded, "What you said makes sense. Every time you attack, you can take away the enemy."
There are tens of thousands of Tubo soldiers, but after these two rounds of attacks, they also discovered clues. They are not all outside the range of our trebuchets. We can't attack them with trebuchets. "
Li Daozong expressed his worries. The deputy general in front of him looked at Li Daozong and nodded.
"Yes, that is indeed the case."
Li Daozong continued to speak after his deputy general also agreed with his pity.
"Actually, I don't have a deep understanding of the functions of magical weapons. If some magical weapons had been buried under the Tubo army, once they were ignited and exploded during their military training, even these tens of thousands of people would not be able to give them any leftovers. Down."
"The general is wise."
The deputy general hurriedly complimented Li Daozong, but Li Daozong was a little unhappy.
"Both Xue Li and I missed the battle scene of the magical weapon. Even many soldiers of Tiance Guard have never seen this scene.
King Anbei once led tens of thousands of troops to defeat the Turks, but there were only There were not enough people left. Many of them had seen it before, but they were not on our side. It was really a mistake. Good opportunity, heartache and heartache! "
Li Daozong was not only heartbroken for missing the opportunity, but also heartbroken for losing the lucky general King Anbei. Under such circumstances, what could they do?
However, after feeling heartbroken for this blessed general, the deputy general hurriedly suggested next to Li Daozong.
"General, how about we move the army forward so that the catapults can reach them and launch an attack?"
Li Daozong looked at his lieutenant, "This is the only way, but we must not let them take the opportunity to attack our catapult. If they take part of this magical weapon, it will be a huge loss for us."
"Don't worry, General, everything is under control."
"Okay, the whole army moves forward."
Li Daozong gave an order, and the war drums and horns of the Tang army began to sound. The frightening sounds sounded, and the Tang army's formation moved forward bit by bit. This uniform movement scared the Tibetan soldiers and forced them to retreat.
The uncle of Songtsan cadre saw his Tibetan men in the distance retreating and shouting somewhere.
"Hold on, hold on, no matter what, we must not let them get close to us. If we cannot hold on, all of you will die. If you hold on, you will be rewarded. As long as our reinforcements attack the Tang army from behind, we will win. .”
When the uncle of Songtsan cadre kept wailing for reinforcements, his reinforcements indeed rushed out of the canyon and began to advance towards Songzhou City according to their plan, with the intention of arriving at Songzhou City, attacking Songzhou City and cutting off the Tang army's retreat. , attack from the front and back, and completely eliminate the Tang army in front of them.
It's just that the Tubo army in front of them has thought well and has considered everything. The Tang army may stop them midway. However, just when they are ready to show off their power after occupying Songzhou and fight for their status, the Tubo army leads the army. The general was just feeling proud when he suddenly heard the sound of the mountain sliding.
"What's going on? What happened? Why is there such a movement?"
Just when the general was so puzzled, looking at the direction from which the sound came, huge rocks rolled down one after another from the mountain.
[An app that has been running stably for many years, comparable to the old book-chasing tool, used by all old bookworms.
Wu Yue was in a mess, and even the Tubo noble general who led them was shouting loudly.
"Don't mess up anymore. They only have a thousand people. We go back and wipe them out completely. If you continue to rush forward, you will only give them a chance to defeat them."
It's just that the Turkic general kept shouting, but no one paid attention to him. Instead, the Tubo soldiers kept shouting "escape for their lives" and other words.
Even if the Tubo general gathered hundreds of people to form a guard and stabilized the formation slightly, the Tubo soldiers who were caught off guard by the sudden change rushed out of the formation. Seeing such a scene, the Tubo general sighed.
"It's time and destiny. We were defeated not because our general's command on the battlefield was inadequate, but because these soldiers disappointed us so much."
Although he kept complaining, the guards next to him were trying to persuade him.
"General, let's go and charge forward. Although we were ambushed by the Tang army here, this Tang army does not understand the art of war."
There are a few Tubo pawns who are still eloquent. When he said this, the Tubo general's eyes lit up.
"You are right. This Tang army must have just arrived here. Otherwise, they would have come to give us a blow and block us in the canyon, preventing us from going to Songzhou City.
Now they have only blocked our retreat and damaged a few of our manpower. To us, the Tang army really does not know the art of war.
Since Tang Jun has provided us with such a good opportunity, we can't let down Tang Jun, can we?
My sons, follow me and charge forward, take down Songzhou City in one go, and show the Tang army that this is nothing more than their lack of military skills. "
However, just when the Tubo general triumphantly led his younger brother and charged forward, preparing to take Songzhou City in one go, not long after marching forward, the Tang army in the rear had retreated.
This situation made the little boss even more happy.
"Look! This Tang army just doesn't know the art of war. Our formation just now was in chaos. They didn't even come to chase us. They just let us run for our lives. If I had already arranged for our soldiers to chase us, why would they show up to let us go?" To escape unscathed? At least you have to have the energy to kill three to five thousand enemies."
As soon as the Tubo leader finished speaking, the dog-legged confidant next to him started talking loudly.
"General, you are too kind and too careful. No matter what, we cannot destroy them all? Our Tibetan warriors are not comparable to the Tang army."
"Yes, you are right!"
The compliment of this little pawn made the general in front of him even more delighted. However, what he did not notice was that the Tang army that had cut off their retreat began to gather under the leadership of Cheng Chumo. The discovered trail led to the place arranged by Xue Li and he quickly hurried towards it.
Prepare to join forces with Xue Li to completely eliminate these invading Tubo dog thieves.
I didn't want to go there in meditation, but some people were not enthusiastic.
"Why didn't we pursue them? Didn't they take advantage of their defeat and add more?"
"Why did we attack so late? Shouldn't we have crossed the river and hit the people in the middle of the river? We let a lot of them escape in vain."
Cheng Chumo was not good at words and could only scratch his head, "This is what Xue Li meant. If there are any problems, we can talk about it after the battle."
