At a quarter past noon, the whole army attacked the city.
Hou Junji, Niu Jinda and Liu Lan had already gathered together, preparing to attack and test the Tubo people's strength.
The trebuchets and ladders were quickly assembled by the rear troops.
People in the camp roared and horses neighed, the generals cursed, and the soldiers hurried back and forth, and the rapid sound of horse hooves also came and went.
As the saying goes, if you are ten, besiege it, if you are five, attack it, if if you double it, fight it.
Therefore, even though the three of them are famous generals of the Tang Dynasty, they are still at a loss as to how to attack the city.
The battlefield was changing rapidly.
It would take several days to march from Chang'an City to Songzhou City.
We still didn't know what it would be like by then.
Therefore, the three people unanimously decided to attack the city directly instead of waiting for reinforcements.
One general's achievements are worth tens of thousands, but all famous generals are not born with the ability to fight.
They are all born with human lives.
Only after losing thousands of people can they see some clues and flaws, and then win with one blow.
Fighting on the battlefield is a matter of life and death.
At the top of Songzhou City, there were densely packed Tubo people.
They did not have uniform clothes.
They wore all kinds of clothes.
Some wore short shirts, some wore sheepskin jackets, and some were bare-chested.
They also had all kinds of weapons in their hands. , there is no unified standard, there are knives and swords, forks and halberds, and even some holding thick wooden sticks, it looks like a mob.
However, just a few months ago, it was this rabble that forced Tuyuhun Khan to flee in panic, and Songzhou City was defeated in one battle.
These made the three chief managers stop their contempt and take it seriously.
There is no such thing as the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, where the generals came out to yell and curse, and then a general came out from the other side, and then they started to moan loudly for a while.
One side beat the other side to death, and then pursued the victory and defeated the enemy.
This is not a romance.
Ever since the Tubo people slaughtered the people, they have been unable to reconcile, and they have even been fighting to the death.
At a quarter past noon, the low sound of horns was blown from three sides of Songzhou City.
Three thousand crossbowmen came out, one hundred and fifty steps away from the city, and set up a battle array.
The generals waved their red flags.
In an instant, black crossbow arrows rained down. , fell towards the top of the city and fell all over the sky.
The Tubo soldiers were lucky enough to hide under the arrow chop of the city wall to avoid the arrows.
However, many people were still hit by arrows and were pushed out wailing, and then new people added them.
The rain of arrows lasted for more than twenty minutes before it stopped, and the crossbowmen slowly returned to the camp.
At this moment, the sound of rumbling cowhide drums could be heard in the camp.
In front of the camp, hundreds of trebuchets were slowly pushed out.
The general gave an order, and countless boulders flew towards the head of Songzhou City.
Attack and defense were relative, and neither side felt comfortable.
Huge boulders fell from the sky, and sharp arrows were shot from all directions, taking away the lives of the sergeants one by one.
Ladles of boiling oil fell from above, and the ladders were pushed away one by one.
Countless soldiers of the Tang Dynasty fell under the city wall and never got up again.
The generals waved again and again, and boulders were thrown one by one.
This was the first time for the Tibetan people at the top of the city to fight with the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty.
It turned out that fighting could still be like this, instead of fighting face to face.
This seemed different from before. , this is the idea of some Tibetan generals.
Defeating it in one battle made the Tubo people who invaded the city feel a little arrogant.
It turned out that the famous Tang army was nothing more than this.

But now, they finally tasted the consequences, but it was too late.
Whether it was the rain of arrows or the boulders, they took away the lives of a large number of Tubo soldiers, especially the boulders.
Often, no screams were heard after the attack, leaving only a pool of blood and flesh.
All the skills in fighting were gained with their lives.
After losing thousands of people, the Tubo generals finally learned how to avoid these long-range attacks.
Suddenly, the huge boulder that made the Tubo people tremble stopped.
Rows of neat sergeants came out, holding horizontal swords, and ran towards the city in darkness.
Every time they walked more than ten steps, someone was carrying a long ladder.
The Tang army, which was all over the mountains and plains, roared and attacked the city like an angry wave.
The Tubo people were not to be outdone, and all the guys in their hands came to greet them.
War has always been tragic and cruel.
The air is filled with a thick and nauseating smell of blood, and screams are heard one after another.
The Tibetans used swords, guns and clubs to push away the ladders again and again, or pour tung oil down.
The boiling tung oil would directly burn the soldiers' skin and flesh and spatter them, or they would fall off the tall ladders.
The soldiers were very brave and even captured the city for a time, but they still failed to stabilize their position.
One burst of momentum will lead to failure, and three times it will be exhausted.
Almost at the same time, the sound of Ming Jin's horn to withdraw his troops came from three directions.
Huge waves hit the city head like waves crashing on the shore, but now, they receded quietly like an ebbing tide.
However, thousands of athletes of the Tang Dynasty were left behind under the city.
The three of them are all veterans, so they naturally know when to attack and when to withdraw their troops.
The next day, early in the morning, the fighting started.
A series of riprap carts were pushed out, but today it was not a huge boulder, but clay pots, with kerosene in them.
After being thrown onto the city wall, a huge fire broke out in an instant.
Too many Tubo people were caught off guard and were stained with kerosene and burned to death.
Because there was too much kerosene, even some parts of the city walls were burning.
This time, Tubo suffered heavy losses.
In some parts of the city walls, there were even no defenders left.
Just when they were satisfied, suddenly, the city gate opened wide.
The Tubo people naturally did not come to surrender.
On the contrary, a group of horses galloped out of the gate and ran in all directions.
These cavalry did not gather together, but dispersed.
Every hundred cavalry formed a team and fought in one direction.
It was extremely chaotic and disorganized, but it also caused great trouble to the Tang army, because Tubo's The cavalry was too disorganized to defend effectively.
"Quick, Mo Dao formation comes out."
Niu Jinda immediately sent a large number of cavalry to block it.
Unfortunately, the Tubo cavalry was too chaotic.
Many of them had already rushed over the army, and there were many more who were not for attack, but only for destruction and stone throwing.
Cars, kerosene and other supplies.
Niu Jinda decisively ordered the Mo Dao Formation to come to help, because the opponent had too many cavalry, more than 10,000 of them.
This was simply a no-life, no-fear-of-loss style of play, which was completely harmful to others but not to oneself.
Tubo had an advantage in numbers.
Even if they dispatched 50,000 troops, the remaining troops would still be enough to defend the city.
However, these 50,000 troops were not too small for the Tang army outside the city.
After all, the total number of Tang troops was , only more than 50,000
.
