"Ah!"
Zhao Ziliang roared, and the veins on his face, forehead and arms suddenly popped out.
He grabbed the horse with both hands and lifted up all the piled logs.
It was chopped into pieces, and finally turned into sawdust and scattered on the ground piece by piece.
The helmets and armor of the soldiers of the Western Qin Army behind him were scattered with sawdust everywhere.
"Come with me!"
Zhao Ziliang roared and rushed forward with his horse in hand.
Seeing Zhao Ziliang's bravery, the soldiers of the Western Qin Army immediately became excited and followed him up the mountain with a roar.
After rushing for about fifty meters, Zhao Ziliang finally saw the earth fort where the formation's eye was.
It should be said that it was a stone fort.
It was made of stones.
It was about three feet high and round.
There were archery holes everywhere on the stone fort.
The stone fort where the formation's eye was located was just thirty meters in front.
The Tubo army in the stone fort saw that the Western Qin army had rushed nearby, and immediately organized troops to rush down to fight.
A large group of about 200 Tibetan soldiers stood in a Tubo Under the leadership of the general, they rushed down the hillside.
At this time, arrows were still being fired from all directions.
Zhao Ziliang shouted: "Everyone, protect yourselves.
Duan Xiushi will lead the first team to kill me, and the others will follow."
"Yes" Duan Xiushi agreed and waved his hand: "Come on the first team, kill."
The first group of soldiers to "kill" followed Duan Xiushi, and everyone gathered tightly around Zhao Ziliang.
The Tubo army rushed down the hillside with great momentum.
This was a condescending advantage, but it had no effect on Zhao Ziliang.
Zhao Ziliang swung his horse's ax in his hand and swung away the ax of the Tubo general who was rushing over.
The mace hit the Tubo general hard on the ribs.
The Tubo general was knocked out on the spot and fell to the left side of the deep stream.
"Dang, ding, ding, ding, ding."
The Tubo soldiers fought with the soldiers of the Western Qin Army.
The weapons kept clashing.
The soldiers of the Western Qin Army had an absolute advantage in terms of equipment.
The swords of the Tubo soldiers slashed at the soldiers of the Western Qin Army.
It has no effect on the body at all, unless it is cut at the vital parts of the joints.
"Die all of them!"
Zhao Ziliang roared, waving the horse in his hand constantly, and afterimages appeared in the air.
The Tubo soldiers were hacked to death one after another.
His feet did not stop at all, while killing the enemy, he climbed up the mountain.
Go, there is blood and broken limbs under your feet.
Zhao Ziliang killed more than half of the two hundred Tubo soldiers who rushed down from the stone fort.
The distance of thirty meters was too close.
After the Tubo soldiers who rushed out were killed, Zhao Ziliang had already led his men to the stone fort.
Under the fort, arrows are still shooting out of the archery holes on the stone fort.
At this time, Zhao Ziliang felt an invisible force rushing out of the stone castle and going straight into his forehead.
In an instant, he felt a stabbing pain in his brain.
He immediately understood that this was the Tubo stranger in the stone castle who was attacking with the power of the spiritual realm.
He, his body shook, he let out a muffled groan, and then he yelled, "Go to hell".

The power of his soul instantly counterattacked, dispelling the power that invaded his mind, and then rushed past along the path of this power.
In a room in the stone castle, a lama wearing monk's robes slowly flowed out black blood from his Qiqiao, and his body fell down.
Zhao Ziliang put away his soul and waved his horse in his hand, "Soldiers, follow me and fight in."
The soldiers of the Western Qin Army followed Zhao Ziliang and poured into the small door of the stone castle like a tide.
They went up the stairs and cleaned every room until they rushed to the top of the stone castle and killed all the Tibetan soldiers in the stone castle. , controlled the entire stone castle.
At this point, the soldiers of the Western Qin Army looked around again and found that the same scenery along the way had disappeared, replaced by five earthen forts.
Duan Xiushi came to the top of the fort and reported to Zhao Ziliang: "Your Majesty, all the Tibetan soldiers in the fort have been cleaned up, and the room where the Tibetan strangers who set up the formation are found is also found.
The people are dead."
Zhao Ziliang followed Duan Xiushi to the Tubo Lama's room and stood at the door.
Zhao Ziliang looked at it and told Duan Xiushi: "Go and arrange defenses, especially block the door, and then send a signal to our troops down the mountain to organize their troops to prepare." attack" "Yes, Your Majesty," Duan Xiushi agreed with clasped fists, turned around and went downstairs.
Zhao Ziliang walked into the room and squatted next to the dead Tibetan lama.
He touched him, took out some objects and put them away.
Then he stood up and ordered the soldiers around him: "Take the body out and clean the room."
"yes" After the body was taken away, Zhao Ziliang walked to the window and looked down.
From here, he could completely see all the scenes on the road from the bottom of the mountain to the top of the mountain.
At the same time, he could also see half of the surrounding earthen forts.
In other words, he led his troops to kill them just now.
Every move he made was clearly seen by the Tubo Lama.
After a while, Duan Xiushi came back again and reported with clasped fists: "Your Majesty, the defenses have been arranged and the signal has been sent.
General Chen is organizing troops to prepare for the attack."
Zhao Ziliang asked: "How many idle troops will be left after the defense layout is completed?"
Duan Xiushi said: "There are still two hundred people free."
Zhao Ziliang thought for a while and ordered: "Divide these two hundred people into two teams.
When the soldiers and horses from the bottom of the mountain come up the mountain, order these two pairs of people to attack the earth forts on the left and right sides of the opposite side respectively.
As long as we attack these two Earthen forts, the Tibetan soldiers in these two earthen forts cannot be distracted from attacking our soldiers and horses going up the mountain, and can provide cover for our people and horses going up the mountain."
"Understood, I will prepare now."
Except for the stone fort in the middle, the other earth forts were built on both sides of the mountain road.
They could only shoot arrows at the Western Qin army attacking up the mountain, but could not attack with rolling wood and thunder stones.
Only the stone fort in the middle was located.
You can throw a large number of thunder stones and rolling logs at the Western Qin army on the mountain road. , after capturing the stone fortress in the middle, this battle will be much easier to fight.
For the soldiers of the Western Qin Army who are fully armored and protected by shields, the lethality of arrow shooting is too limited.
The Tubo Army's soil There are no weapons for defending the city such as large crossbows or bed crossbows in the fort.
When the Tibetan generals at Jinding Pass saw that the stone fort had been captured, they were very anxious.
They immediately shouted and commanded a large number of Tibetan troops to rush down from the top of the mountain to recapture the stone fort.
After all, this stone fort was the center of defense on the hillside.
As long as it was recaptured, It will be very difficult for the Western Qin army to capture other Tubo.
Two hundred soldiers were divided into two teams to attack the two bottom earth forts respectively.
However, the stone fort where Zhao Ziliang and Duan Xiushi were located was besieged by a large number of Tibetan troops rushing down from the mountain.
However, Duan Xiushi and his soldiers fought to the death.
Guarding the entrance prevented the Tibetan army from attacking the stone fort.
The Tibetan army did not carry siege equipment and could not climb from the wall to the top of the stone fort.
Arrows were continuously shot from the archery holes of the stone fort, and some of the Tibetan soldiers surrounding the stone fort were shot to death.
However, these Tibetan soldiers were obviously those who dared to die.
Even though they suffered heavy casualties, they still did not retreat to the golden peak on the top of the mountain.
Inside the top pass.

As a large number of soldiers of the Western Qin Army at the foot of the mountain rushed down, the two bottom Tubo towers were also captured one after another.
The Tubo soldiers who besieged the stone fort were completely annihilated under the attack of the Western Qin army inside and outside the stone fort.
Before Zhao Ziliang had time to deploy a new round of attack, a large number of Tibetan soldiers rushed down from the Jinding Pass on the mountain.
It seemed that the Tibetan generals were determined to recapture the stone fort.
The Western Qin army was still at a disadvantage.
After all, the Tubo army was condescending. , fight when you want, rest when you want.
Zhao Ziliang could only order part of the soldiers of the Western Qin Army to retreat into the stone fort and the two earth forts that had been captured.
The other part of the soldiers stayed under the fort to protect the safety of the stone fort.
The other soldiers of the Western Qin Army hid in the stone fort and the earth fort.
Bows and arrows were used to kill the Tibetan troops in the fort.
Throughout the whole day, the Tubo army launched six consecutive attacks on the stone fort, sending a total of more than 3,000 people, but they were all wiped out by the soldiers of the Western Qin Army led by Zhao Ziliang.
The Western Qin Army relied on the stone fort as a springboard and fortress.
They kept annihilating the Tibetan troops who rushed down from the mountains.
They did not stop attacking until after dark.
Zhao Ziliang wiped the blood from his face, put his horse on the ground, and turned to look at the soldiers of the Western Qin Army.
Covered by the bows and arrows in the stone fort, the casualties of the soldiers were not large, but they were all very tired.
Zhao Ziliang Immediately ordered the soldiers to go into the fort to rest.
The Tibetans would not send anyone to attack at night.
Duan Xiushi said to Zhao Ziliang with some worry: "Your Majesty, if the Tubo people keep sending people to attack like this, it will be a big trouble for us."
Zhao Ziliang shook his head and said, "It's impossible.
Their troops are limited and they can't keep sending people down to attack.
Now we are the attackers.
They sent people to attack today to recapture the stone fortress.
They will wait until they think it is no longer possible to recapture the stone fort."
Maybe they will give up.
After all, they still have to guard Jinding Pass on the mountain.
How many of the soldiers who have gone up the mountain have not participated in the day's battle?"
Duan Xiushi said: "There should be more than a thousand people."
Zhao Ziliang thought for a while and ordered: "Organize these people, and let's attack the remaining earth forts overnight and capture them.
As long as these earth forts are captured tonight, the Tibetan people will be in trouble if they want to attack us tomorrow."
It’s much more difficult” Duan Xiushi clasped his fists and said, "I understand, I will personally lead the attack tonight."
The stone fort is indeed the central hub of the entire mountainside defense system.
After losing it, the Tubo people became passive.
The surrounding Tubos could not respond to each other and could only reinforce and cover each other in pairs.
However, the two earth forts After all, the troops are very limited, and they can only shoot arrows.
Once the arrows are shot, they have no attack power.
They have to wait for the arrows to be transported from the top of the mountain.
Under the cover of darkness, Duan Xiushi led his soldiers to continuously attack the remaining four earth forts.
These four earth forts were separated and could not be protected and supported respectively.
Before midnight, the four earth forts were destroyed.
They were successively captured by the Western Qin Army.
Duan Xiushi came back with a face full of joy and reported to Zhao Ziliang: "Your Majesty, the remaining four earth forts have been captured by my men."
Zhao Ziliang nodded and said, "What are the casualties of the good soldiers?"
"There were more than 500 casualties, including more than 200 killed in battle."
Zhao Ziliang frowned, "The casualties are a bit heavy.
