Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 2424 Destroy Tubo soldiers and horses
The New Year is getting closer and closer.

The weather in Longcheng was still cold, with the wind blowing non-stop.

Zhang Erhei and Du Wen guarded Longcheng, and the news from Tubo kept coming.

"General, my lord, the Tubo soldiers have no intention of attacking the city, but they don't really want to leave either."

The news was the same as what they had received before.

Zhang Erhei snorted, and said, "What does Tubo mean? They don't attack us, and they don't leave. How long can their food and grass support them, and they want to waste here with us?"

Zhang Erhei was a little upset, but Du Wen frowned slightly at this moment.

At the beginning, Tubo couldn't stay here, he didn't think there was anything wrong, but Tubo's food and grass were almost consumed, and they still didn't leave, which made him feel strange, I'm afraid there was something strange about it. .

Suddenly, Du Wen stood up and said, "No, they're probably going to attack Songzhou City."

Hearing Du Wen's words, Zhang Erhei was taken aback, and said, "Attack Songzhou City?"

He thinks this is too unbelievable, it is impossible.

"The purpose of Tubo is to plunder materials. If they can't plunder materials, it is meaningless for them to stay here, but this group of Tubo soldiers and horses have stayed. Their purpose is to confuse us, and their other A group of troops may have already marched towards Songzhou City."

"This... I'm afraid something bad will happen. The Tubo army suddenly attacked. Even if Songzhou City is very strong, there will be some danger. We must notify the general as soon as possible."

Although they are very confident in Zhang Shouming's defensive ability, they don't know the situation in Tubo now. It's better to make some preparations for Songzhou City.

And just when the two of them were in such a hurry, a spy rushed over and delivered a letter.

"General, my lord, there is a letter from the general from Songzhou City."

Hearing Zhang Shouming's letter came, Zhang Erhei and Du Wen were both a little surprised, but they didn't say much. They just opened the letter and read it. After reading it, both of them were stunned.

"The general already knew about Tubo's intentions. It was Xu Jian who said it. Moreover, the general had already sent Xu Jian to support us. He will first destroy the [-] Tubo soldiers outside the city."

Zhang Erhei was a little shocked. They just thought of this, so Xu Jian has already thought of this?

In this way, they don't have to send messages to Songzhou City.

It's just that Xu Jian is too powerful, right?

Of course, Zhang Erhei felt that Du Wen was also very good, because he also thought of these things. Although it was a few days late, what did it matter, maybe it was just because they were in the middle of the game.

The two quickly recovered from the shock just now.

"General, it seems that we don't need to send someone to inform Songzhou City, but here, we have to discuss how to swallow the [-] soldiers of Tubo."

Although Xu Jian's abandonment of the city caused the crisis in Dragon City, but now they are all working for Datang, and they have a common goal, so Du Wen didn't have time to get angry with Xu Jian, what they need to do most now , is to destroy the Tubo soldiers and horses outside the city.

Zhang Erhei thought for a moment, and said: "If Xu Jian's [-] troops arrive, we may win the decisive battle with Tubo, but if this is the case, the loss will be very serious for us. Although we Swallowing them, but also severely damaged, it is not worthwhile to do so."

Du Wen nodded and said, "So, we must think of a way to eliminate them while reducing our losses."

"What good idea do you have?"

Du asked: "It's impossible to attract Tubo to attack the city and consume them. Then all we can do is to harass them. As long as we keep harassing them, we can keep them restless and wipe them out. Their morale, then when we fight against them, the odds of winning will be great."

This is the only and most cost-effective way they can do.

In war, there are people who will not die or be damaged, and even if there is a way to reduce these things, they will definitely not be reduced by much. They can only do their best to do this.

Zhang Erhei thought for a while, then nodded: "Okay, let's do this."
-
As night fell, the cold air became heavier.

The wind was blowing, and the surrounding area of ​​Dragon City was chilly.

The Tubo barracks were heavily guarded, and there were many soldiers on patrol.

They were not going to attack the city anymore, but they were afraid that the Tang army would attack the camp, so they arranged a lot of people at night.

While they were patrolling like this, some hot air balloons suddenly floated in the night sky. As these hot air balloons came over the Tubo military camp, they began to launch rockets one by one.

The rockets quickly ignited the barracks of Tubo, and with the cold wind blowing, the fire began to spread.

In the Tubo army camp, many people were burned to death by the fire, and some people were trampled by other terrified people. After the horses ran out of the stables, they went on a mad rampage.

The Tubo barracks were in chaos, and there were endless screams.

Che Gu ran out from the big tent, looking at the military camp which was once again the scene of the fire, he was so angry that his whole body trembled.

"Damn, it's really hateful, Tang Jun is deceiving people too much, he is deceiving people too much."

Tang Jun has hot air balloons, even if they have people patrolling, it is still easy for Tang Jun to burn their barracks. If the barracks are burned, a lot of supplies will be in short supply. They may have no place to sleep at night, and they may soon have nothing. have eaten.

In many cases, they can't do whatever they want.

This kind of behavior of Tang Jun made Che Gu very angry. Even though there are many people fighting the fire now, it is by no means easy to put out the fire.

"Fire, put out the fire..."

The Tubo soldiers finally calmed down after a long time, and by the time they put out the fires, it was already midnight and before dawn.

There was thick smoke from the barracks, and the smoke was a bit pungent. The soldiers were a little tired trying to put out the fire, and when the wind blew, they shivered from the cold. Under such circumstances, they were most likely to get sick.

"General, Tang Jun is too bullying. If they come out like this every night, we can bear it. If you want me to say, we must either attack the city or we will leave."

Siege, there is still hope to capture Dragon City, if you leave, you can also avoid these unnecessary troubles, but after they said this, Che Gu frowned slightly, shook his head and said: "We can't retreat yet , Zanpu's order, we must stick to it until the New Year comes, there are still ten days left, everyone stick to it."
