Li Zhuer shook her head and said: "I have been accustomed to the warmth and coldness of human relationships since I was a child. I knew that the most untrustworthy thing in the world is human nature. Although the giant is good at exploiting the weaknesses of human nature, he actually thinks that the world can be balanced through hidden alliances. We need to know that the weak If you become stronger, you may do more evil than the strong." Jiang Shuo was stunned after hearing her words, and said: "So you are half-hearted in the Hidden Alliance?" Li Zhuer said: "I have never been half-hearted. Everything I did was to avenge An Lushan! Whether it was for the Khitan or the Hidden Alliance, in the final analysis, it was to avenge me, Aye, and myself! Now An Lushan is still gathering strength, I can't let him The Tang army has exhausted its strength in Tubo." Jiang Shuo thought to himself: It turns out that Sister Zhu'er's target was always An Lushan. An was a traitor to rebel against Li Guozhe. Killing her would indeed be a hatred as deep as the sea, but the An family brothers He was really kind to her, but Sister Zhuer was not moved at all and wanted to kill Anjia to death.
Thinking of this, Jiang Shuo said: "With Sister Zhuer's ability, it is not difficult to kill An Lushan, right? Although Li Guiren and Gao Bujie are powerful, they are not always with An Lushan." Around Lushan, it's not hard to find a chance to stab the thief to death, right?" Li Zhu'er snorted coldly and said, "I can easily catch this thief if I want to, but everything will stop after death. It would be too much to stab him to death with a knife. This evil thief will benefit." Jiang Shuo said: "Then you capture him and torture him slowly..." It was hard for him to imagine that he would say such a thing, but Li Zhuer smiled and said: " It is torture, but not physical torture. The higher a person climbs, the harder he will fall. The greater the hope, the more desperate it will be in the end. I just want to make An thief misjudge the form and think he can dominate the world. Let him be defeated, betrayed and alienated, and then kill him in despair. This is called real torture!" Jiang Shuo sighed: "In this way, the world is used as a chess game and all the people are used as pawns. Once the war starts, all lives will be destroyed. Why do the people deserve this misfortune?" Li Zhu'er said: "Looking back, your arguments are really similar to those of the giants. No wonder General Pei always admires you." Jiang Shuo said: "Since General Pei pities the world, so what? Are you using the Hidden Alliance to disrupt the world's situation?" Li Zhuer asked: "Without the Hidden Alliance, there would be no disputes in the world? Will careerists like Li Linfu, Ma Xiangzhong Bajie, and Guli Peiluo disappear? What General Pei wants to do is to pass The consumption of small battles eliminates the shadow of a big war." Zhang Zangxie suddenly understood at the side and said: "Big brother... so he calls himself the Mohist family... The so-called righteousness of the Mohist family is to always help the defensive side." Jiang Shuo knew that Zhang Zangxie spoke Chinese very well, but he didn't expect that he was also familiar with the classics written by the Han people in the Central Plains thousands of years ago. Jiang Shuo said: "Mozi loves everything but doesn't attack. How can it be the same as what the Yinmeng did?" Zhang Zangxie said He shook his head and said: "It is said that there are no unjust wars in the Spring and Autumn Period. Mozi was familiar with the evil of human nature and knew that it was impossible to prevent wars by convincing the monarchs not to use troops. Therefore, what he did was to help weak countries strengthen their defenses. If every small country If they are all as hard to swallow as hedgehogs, then the big countries like wolves and tigers will extinguish their desire to invade." Jiang Shuo said: "But the countries still continued to attack, and finally Emperor Qin swept Liuhe and the world was unified. Mozi can say It’s the power of a hundred flowers.” Zhang Zangxie nodded and said: “I don’t know who the experts are in the Yin League, but no matter who they are, if you have profound wisdom or unparalleled magical skills, what Mozi could not succeed in the past is not possible in the Yin League now. You can do it." Li Zhuer nodded approvingly and said: "As a Tibetan, you are very knowledgeable in what you say, ah... I remembered, Zhang Zangxie... you are also a disciple of Master Gu Xin." Zhang Zangxie looked serious. He said: "Yes, unlike Tieren Xinuoluo and Ma Xiangzhong Bajie, I only studied literature but not martial arts with my master." Jiang Shuo thought to himself: It turns out that master Gu Xin is also a versatile scholar in both arts and martial arts, and he is the only one in the Central Plains who can rival him. The only one left is Master Dongyanzi, Zhao Rui and Zhao. Unfortunately, Dongyanzi has passed away, Master Gu Xin has passed away, and the master has withered. The disciples he taught are both civilized and martial, but all-round talents are no longer available... At this time, I suddenly heard something like this outside. A loud thunderous noise rumbled away in the north of the city. Jiang Shuo was startled and asked Zhang Zangxie: "Zhang Xiben, what is this sound?" Zhang Zangxie said in panic: "It's a stone! The stone is hung in the north of Shibao City. Above the gate, a huge piece of rock was carved into the shape of a log. It was as wide as the slope entering the city and weighed more than a thousand kilograms. When the siege was most urgent, the city gate was opened. The enemy thought that the defenders could not resist the Kaicheng surrender. When they attacked, they suddenly released the stone... No matter whether you were a Daluo Jinxian or a Vajra warrior, you would be crushed immediately. For the powder. "Jiang Shuo's heart skipped a beat after hearing this. When he was chasing Ye Guizhen, he saw the Tang army forming a fish-scale and turtle-shell formation down the slope to attack the city. Judging from the time, the Tubo defenders were waiting for the Tang army to rush under the city gate before they suddenly Release the stone.
This is exactly what Li Zhuer said: people feel the most desperate when victory is in sight! Li Zhuer patted Iron Blade Xi Nuoluo on the shoulder and said to Jiang Shuo: "Let's go, it's time for General Iron Blade to take action." Jiang Shuo was full of internal energy and his physical strength was surprisingly strong. The Iron Blade Xi Nuoluo was placed on his shoulder like a small bag of wheat and followed Li Zhuer out.
The Tubo warriors behind him were horrified, so how could they dare to step forward and snatch the coach? He actually formed a queue and followed them silently.
The octagonal stone chamber was very close to the north gate of Stone Castle. The group arrived at the north gate soon, and they saw a strange scene... The north gate was wide open, and there was a lot of noise on the battlefield, but not a single Tang army came out of the empty city gate. After rushing in, four car tracks were carved into the open space behind the city gate. At the end of the tracks were more than a dozen groups of huge stone rollers that were as tall as one person and three or four feet long.
This is what Zhang Zangxie calls the stones. He said that these stones are carved from a single piece of stone. This is actually a bit of an exaggeration. These stones are made of stone rollers three or four feet long and pierced with iron locks. Tie together by heart.
There are four iron wheels sandwiched between the stone rollers and embedded in the four tracks, so that they can roll down the slope without going astray.
The open space in front of the city gate is high on the inside and low on the outside, and the stones are piled on a steep slope. A huge steel drill was used to nail it into the ground, and an iron chain hook was used to lock the iron wheel to prevent the stone from slipping.
At this time, the Tibetan people were untying a set of stone iron locks. Below, a shirtless warrior used a big wooden hammer to knock away the steel drill.
When Jiang Shuo and the others saw it, it was too late to stop them. They saw the stone falling into the orbit, and the Tubo warriors who had just been operating together immediately shouted and stepped aside.
The Tibetan people poured cooked oil into the track. When the iron wheel fell into the track, it immediately blew out four sparks. The stones mixed quickly, roaring and rushing down the mountain like a tiger out of its cage... Jiang Shuo and Li Zhuer climbed up the mountain. I went up to the city gate tower and looked down at the slope below. I saw that the slope was simply a hell on earth. Broken limbs and corpses were everywhere, and there were also piles of unknown things in dark red and bright yellow. The smell of blood rushed straight to my forehead, which was very disturbing. Gagging.
The Tang army, which was attacking from the rear, was also prepared. They lined up in four columns, each holding a long spear. In each column, the pole was carried on the shoulders of the person in front, and then they pressed down together to gather the tips of the spears into the rails.
When the rocks came roaring with wind and thunder, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty shouted together and used the stick as a crowbar to pry the rocks off the track and fly up. However, the momentum of the rocks was too strong, and the rocks flew in the air and rubbed against each other. , broke the iron chain, scattered in the air, and fell like a meteorite.
Tang's soldiers immediately scattered in all directions, trying to avoid each other, but there were still many who moved slightly slowly and were smashed into meat patties by stones.
The scene was so tragic that it was unbearable to watch. Although Jiang Shuo had captured Tie Ren Xi Nuoluo, he didn't know how to use it. Dugu Tie Ren Xi Nuoluo shouted: "Tell them to stop!" Tie Ren Xi Nuoluo turned his head and ignored Jiang Shuo completely. Jiang Shuo knew He is a tough guy. Even if he has a sword on his neck, he will never order the entire army to surrender because he is greedy for life and afraid of death. Li Zhuer grabbed Zhang Zangxie, pointed at a gray wave on the western horizon, and said, "Zhang Xiben, where is that?" Zhang Zangxie said calmly: "It's the Tibetan reinforcements." "The Tubo army used Shibao City as a stronghold. As long as Shibao City firmly attracted the siege troops, the Tibetan cavalry would outflank the Tang army from a distance and attack the Tang army's retreat. The Tubo army had always used this harassment tactic, which was quite effective.
Li Zhuer was in two valleys nearby, and saw two teams of Tang army cavalry with their arms and drums silent, waiting silently, obviously waiting for the Tibetan army to fall into the trap and knock it into the trap. This scene could be seen very clearly from the top of the city. However, the Tubo cavalry rushing in from a distance were completely unaware due to the limited field of vision. If they charged like this and were ambushed by the Tang army, they would suffer heavy casualties.
Li Zhuer said: "The Tang army has gathered hundreds of thousands of troops, and the elites from Hexi, Longyou and even Shuofang have gathered here. The Tang army is determined to win Shibao City. It just depends on the number of casualties on both sides." Zhang Zangxie looked at it Looking at the situation at the bottom of the mountain, Li Zhuer nodded silently and said, "Do you know what to do?" Zhang Zangxie nodded silently again.
Li Zhuer turned to Jiang Shuo and said, "Look back and raise the iron blade Xi Nuoluo to the flagpole." "Jiang Shuo knew that Li Zhuer was far more intelligent than him, so he casually tore off the rope of the highest flagpole at the top of the city and let the Tibetan flag fall down the city.
Then he cut both arms of Iron Blade Xi Nuoluo upside down, tied them to the rope, and lifted them with one hand.
"Chiliu" he was dragged up to the two-foot-high flagpole like a flag being raised. Li Zhuer said again: "Looking back, you help Zhang Xiben speak out." Jiang Shuo put his other hand on Zhang Zangxie's waist and injected internal energy into his Governor Vessel. The internal energy ran through the Baihui point on the top of his head and poured it into his mouth. At Gujiao point, Zhang Zangxie suddenly felt a breath of air pressing against his upper gums and opened his mouth to make a sound. The sound immediately spread throughout the world and could be heard clearly by the entire Shibao City.
Just listen to Zhang Zangxie shouting: "The great Tibetan people have captured the bones, the Tang Dynasty Abolo Asby, the iron blade Xinoluo will not stab Hachile... The great Tibetans have beaten and strangled Ha Si... they have captured the bones." Atala Sethites! Atala Sethites!" This passage is translated into Chinese as: Tibetan warriors, the Tang army has captured the center of Shibao City, and General Iron Blade Xinoluo has been seriously injured. Being captured, in order to prevent my Tubo man from making unnecessary sacrifices again, let's all surrender together.
There were only a few hundred of the thousands of Tibetan defenders left in Shibao City. Under the fierce attack of the Tang army, they were already on the verge of reaching their limit. After hearing such a loud and oracular human voice, everyone was surprised. They all walked out of their bunkers to watch. When they saw the iron blade Xinolo hanging on the flagpole of the city tower as motionless as a dead fish, they no longer had the slightest doubt in their hearts. He lowered his sword, knelt down and shouted: "Sethes! Sethes!" The Tang army at the foot of the mountain heard the sudden shouting in the city. They were not sure what it meant. They were all startled, and their offensive was stopped. However, there were also Tubo interpreters in the Tang army, and someone immediately reported to Brother Shu Han: This is the surrender of the Tubo army.
Geshu Hanchu still didn't believe it, but a scout Pegasus reported back: "Commander, someone has indeed rushed to seize the flag and hang the Tibetan general Xinuolo on the flagpole. The Tibetan defenders are shouting surrender in unison." Geshu Han was overjoyed and said: "But it is the two generals Zhang Shouyu and Gao Xiuyan who accomplished this feat?" At this time, the two generals Zhang Shouyu and Gao Xiuyan had hurriedly returned to the Chinese army from the front line and reported together: "We dare not take credit for the victory. , it is the young master of the Cao Gang, Jiang Shuo, who is tracing the river!" In addition to the Chinese army, many members of the Cao Gang who were assisting with transportation cheered together when they heard the words, and the cheers shook the whole world for a while, like thunder in summer, and the heaven and earth also Take it for granted.
