"Go find Wang Can" "Yes, Marshal" Soon Wang Can stepped on the corpse with a waist knife and walked over, cupping his fists and saying: "Commander, your injury" Zhao Ziliang shook his head, reached out and pulled out the three arrows from his back and threw them on the pile of corpses.
He said, "It's okay.
It's just a skin injury.
Tomorrow is the tenth day as promised.
Is there any movement in the direction of Shanzhou?"
Wang Can shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Commander, the Tubo people are besieging the city.
Now even birds can't fly into Xiping City.
We have long lost contact with the direction of Shanzhou."
Zhao Ziliang was silent for a long time after hearing this.
After a long while, he stood up and said: "In that case, tell the cavalry departments to prepare for a decisive battle with the Tubo people tomorrow.
Let the soldiers work harder tonight and fill the soil dug out from the tunnel under the city wall to build a slope that can cavalry Charge directly up.
When the Tibetans attack the city tomorrow, we will lead the cavalry to swoop down from the heights of the city wall to carry out a counterattack.
This time I will scratch Dazalugong alive.
Is this him?
He is a madman.
This kind of madman cannot Let him live, and you must kill him."
The generals clasped their fists and said: "Yes, Commander" After dinner, Zhao Ziliang arranged for some soldiers to be on duty, and another group of soldiers to carry soil and fill it under the city wall.
He decided to fill in a slope more than ten feet wide on the inside of the city wall so that the cavalry could rush up the city wall from inside the city.
Tomorrow, he would fight with the Tibetan army.
During the decisive battle, a sudden counterattack was launched.
Fires were lit everywhere outside the city to light up the surroundings.
The Tibetans had just retreated, and they were probably having dinner at this time.
There might be a sneak attack soon.
Zhao Ziliang led several generals and soldiers to inspect the city defense.
When the generals, captains and soldiers saw Zhao Ziliang approaching from a distance, they all stood up and stood at attention.
A pale soldier with only one arm left stood up holding a knife.
The wound on his broken arm was wrapped in white cloth.
The white cloth had long been dyed red by blood.
Even though he was injured like this, he still persisted on the front line.
Zhao Ziliang was in front of him.
He stopped in front of him and asked: "Can you still hold on?
Why don't you go down to the city to rest.
You are already seriously injured.
No one will care if you don't participate in the battle."
The soldier grinned and said: "Commander, I'm fine, I just broke an arm.
I still have another arm, and I can still kill with a knife."
"Good job," Zhao Ziliang said, taking a wine bottle from the soldier behind him and passing it over, "Here, take a few sips, then lie down and sleep.
Tomorrow we will fight to the death with the Tubo people."
The soldier took the jug and drank a few gulps.
He returned the jug to Zhao Ziliang and said, "Finally, I can fight the Tubo people.
It is a small man's honor to have the honor to fight the Tubo people together with the commander."
Zhao Ziliang nodded, handed the jug to the soldiers and continued to patrol.
After inspecting the entire west city wall, Zhao Ziliang led the generals back to the tower.
At this time, the soldier Wang Laosan reported: "Commander, the battle was fierce during the day.
There was no one to guard the three Xiyi people, and they themselves asked to kill the enemy with us.

When my subordinates saw them Sincerely, we took the initiative to untie them, returned their weapons, and asked them to kill the Tubo people with us.
Unexpectedly, these three Xiyi people were not weak in fighting ability, and each of them killed ten people.
Several people, but all three of them were slightly injured.
It would be really embarrassing to tie them up and take them into custody now, so " Zhao Ziliang raised his hand and said: "Okay, I know, where are they?"
"Rest there, Commander, do you want to see them?"
Zhao Ziliang thought for a while and ordered to the soldiers around him: "Go and get the bow, sword and dagger that I usually use to practice martial arts."
"promise" Under the guidance of Wang Laosan, Zhao Ziliang came to Charlie, Tony and Jason.
Charlie and the three stood up quickly.
Zhao Ziliang said: "During the day, you resisted the barbarian attack with us.
I saw it.
Thank you for your help.
Your courage, battle wounds and military exploits have proved that you are all real warriors.
Since you helped us fight, we are Friends, not enemies, I forgive your crimes now.
Tomorrow we will have a decisive battle with the Tibetans.
You can take the opportunity to leave and return to the Eastern Roman Empire."
Charlie and the three said: "Thank you, Marshal" Zhao Ziliang turned around and took a bow from the soldier and handed it to Charlie: "During the day of the battle, I saw that your archery skills were very good.
This is the battle bow I usually use to practice archery.
It requires five hundred kilograms of strength to pull it.
Full bow, if one day you can fully draw it, you can shoot an enemy three hundred steps away.
I give it to you."
Tony exclaimed: "Oh, God, it's a magical weapon that can shoot three hundred steps away."
"Thank you, Marshal."
Charlie took the bow, and with all his strength, he could only pull it less than halfway, and his face turned red from holding it in.
He hesitated for a moment and then asked: "I would like to ask your Excellency, Marshal, do you use this kind of bow in battle?"
"No."
Zhao Ziliang took out his precious eagle bow from the soldiers and said, "I use this bow.
It requires a thousand kilograms of strength to pull it fully.
Apart from me, this big black guy is the only one in the Tang Dynasty who can pull it full."
Open it," he said and pointed at Noor, the black man.
"Oh my God, are you both Hercules?
I dare say God is not that strong," Tony couldn't help shouting.
Charlie held the bow in his hand and said to Zhao Ziliang: "Thank you Marshal, this bow is of great significance to me.
It was given to me by General Zhao, the most legendary and invincible general in the Tang Empire.
This bow must be It is unique.
If I bring it back to the Eastern Roman Empire, I will definitely be treated as a guest of honor by the emperor.
Thank you."
Zhao Ziliang nodded, looked at the burly Tony, turned around and took a thick sword from another soldier and said to Tony: "Your name is Tony, right?
I see that you use a two-handed broadsword, it should be Heavy weapons, straight swords are not as lethal as knives in chopping. , using a knife on the battlefield is more suitable for exerting force.
You are only a little shorter than me, and your arms are about the same length.
This knife can not only be used for two-handed combat, but also for horseback riding.
It is extremely sharp and can blow hair and break hair.
Ordinary weapons will be cut into pieces if they are struck by him, and they will be given to you."
"So powerful."
Tony took the sword and felt a heavy feeling in his hand.
He handed his broadsword to Charlie and said, "Come, cut with me and try the sharpness of this sword.

Let’s see if it’s as sharp as the Marshal said.”
Charlie took the broadsword, and they both drew it out and slashed at each other.
With a click, the broadsword in Charlie's hand was cut into two pieces.
Tony exclaimed: "Oh, my God, this is really It's so sharp that my heavy sword was cut off in one go.
Hahaha, Marshal, you are so generous, thank you."
Zhao Ziliang smiled and nodded, then took out a short knife from the soldier's hand, looked at Jason and said, "You must have been an infantryman before.
This short knife can not only chop, but also stab.
I call it a mountain knife.
It is also extremely sharp.
It is the most suitable weapon to carry when traveling at home, killing people and stealing goods.
I hope you will make good use of it."
"Oh, thank you too."
Jason took the dagger and immediately liked the style of the knife.
He said immediately, not to mention anything else, just the gold and a gem on the scabbard was worth a lot.
He couldn't put it down.
After admiring it for a while, he pulled it out from the scabbard and saw that the blade of the knife exuded a dark luster.
This was really a strange knife, with a black blade.
Zhao Ziliang said: "Don't you like the color of this knife?
Although it is not gorgeous, it will never rust."
Jason fell into ecstasy after hearing this, "The East is really mysterious.
There are weapons that will never rust.
This thing is absolutely priceless."
While the three of them were still immersed in the joy of getting the gifts, Zhao Ziliang said with a smile: "Have a good rest" and then left with the soldiers.
The Tibetan army camp.
Inside the marshal's tent, the oppressive atmosphere made people breathless.
The extremely heavy casualties made almost all the Tibetan ministers and generals have no intention of fighting anymore.
When they came, there were 120,000 people, but now only the remaining Of the 30,000 men left, only 10,000 infantry and 20,000 cavalry were left, and nine were killed or wounded.
Thousands of people, if it had been normal, I am afraid that the Tibetan soldiers would have collapsed by now.
The reason why they have not collapsed now is, on the one hand, the strong pressure of Dazalukong, and on the other hand, Zampu's revenge has not been avenged.
But after the battle was fought like this, the war weariness of the Tibetan soldiers was already extremely strong.
The gloomy Dazalugong took a sip of wine and asked: "How is the morale of the army?"
A general stood up and sighed: "Marshal, our soldiers have no morale.
Now our words are not very effective.
Our soldiers simply don't listen or pretend not to hear.
This would never be like this before.
No one wants to fight." , even disgusted to continue fighting like this.
According to this method of fighting, no one can survive.
Everyone understands this truth.
If there is no hope of survival, who has the confidence to continue fighting."
A minister stood up and said: "Marshal, we can't fight like this anymore.
If we continue to fight, it won't be a matter of fighting.
It's very likely that some of the men below will cause trouble.
The generals have begun to lose control of the people below.
If we continue to fight like this, Is it still interesting?
I know that the marshal may be thinking about not being able to explain to Luoche City and the people.

Please think about it, marshal, if you continue to fight like this, even if you are Zanpu After taking revenge, how many troops will you have left under your command?
Once you don't have enough strength, those in Luoxue City just need to find an excuse to send troops to deal with you.
You won't have enough strength to fight.
Things have already happened.
It happened, now the most important thing is for you to preserve your strength.
As long as you have enough strength, you don’t have to be afraid of either the Tang Army or the people in the city."
After hearing this, Dazalugong's eyes flashed with an inexplicable light.
At this time, a Tibetan official came in and said to Dazalugong: "Marshal, something is not good.
Our army's sentry found that a large number of people were coming from the direction of Shanzhou City.
There are at least 80,000 soldiers and horses, half infantry and half cavalry.
According to their marching speed, they will definitely be able to reach Xiping City before noon tomorrow.
In other words, the Tang Army's troops have been going through this for nearly ten days.
After resting and adapting, they have adapted to the plateau terrain here.
In addition, news came from Liangzhou, Hexi, that 50,000 Tang troops were attacking Wuwei City.
Iron Blade Xinuoluo fought several battles with the Tang troops, but was repulsed every time. , as long as half of the army is stationed outside the city and the other half retreats into the city, the Tang army has the people in the city as internal support, and the internal support and external support will defeat Iron Blade Xinuoluo.
He has led the remaining 30,000 people to retreat to Panhe County."
The Tang Army's troops recovered so quickly that Dazalugong was a little overwhelmed.
In addition, the Iron Blade Xinuoluo in Hexi was defeated again, and the other two troops of the Tang Army were resting in the southwest of Michuan and Taoyang County.
Since The main force of the Tang Army has recovered, so I'm afraid the other two Tang armies have almost adapted.
If they don't leave, once the other two groups of the Tang army capture Dafeichuan and Shibao City, their retreat is likely to be cut off.
After weighing for a long time, Dazalugong finally came to his senses and ordered: "Send an order to the whole army to withdraw all night and retreat to Dafeichuan.
All territory north of the West Sea should be abandoned.
Send someone to inform Iron Blade Xinolo immediately.
Let him withdraw his troops immediately and join our army in Dafeichuan."
"Yes, Marshal":
