Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 2429
The Tubo soldiers and horses retreated to the barracks.

The weather was so cold that one couldn't help shivering.

Songtsen Gampo summoned a group of generals into the big tent.

The torches were burning inside the big tent, which raised the temperature here somewhat.

Everyone looked at Songtsan Gampo with curiosity.

"Everyone, everyone must have seen the battle today. Although there are few soldiers in Songzhou City, the defense is very tight. If we want to break through easily, it may not be easy. And if the other three of Datang If the tens of thousands of soldiers come back, it will be even more difficult for us to break through Songzhou City, so, what I mean is, send out a force of troops to intercept and kill the [-] Tang troops without giving them the slightest chance."

After Songtsan Gampo said this, some other generals immediately understood.

Immediately afterwards, they all agreed.

"That army killed General Che Gu, we have to destroy them."

"Yes, yes, no matter what the reason, we should intercept them."

"That's right, intercept them."

"........."

Just because they couldn't chew the hard bone of Songzhou City, didn't mean they couldn't eat the [-] Tang troops.

If they can eat up the [-] Tang troops, the situation may be very favorable to them.

Seeing that everyone was like this, Songtsan Gampo nodded and said: "Okay, since everyone agrees, then we will send out an army to destroy them. How many troops do you think we should send?"

"Zanpu, there can't be too few left in Songzhou City, so the last general thinks that it is enough to send out [-] troops. The [-] troops are twice as many as the Tang army, and twice as many troops should be wiped out. Is there any difficulty?"

"That's right, [-] soldiers and horses is quite a lot. It's not a problem to destroy them at all."

"Zanpu, just [-] soldiers and horses."

"........."

Among so many people, there must be some people who think that they can destroy that Tang army without [-] soldiers. However, [-] soldiers are safer, and they don't think there is any problem with it.

Songtsan Gampo nodded, and then ordered: "Okay, let's mobilize [-] soldiers and let them have a rest. Tomorrow morning, under the leadership of Han Du, go to intercept and kill that Tang army."

Hearing this, a general stood up immediately and said, "The last general takes orders."

Songtsan Gampo nodded. He trusted this general very much. In his opinion, with Han Du, a strong general, and [-] Tubo soldiers, it would be no problem to wipe out [-] Tang troops.

If this can't kill them, then their Tibetans are too useless.

After saying this, a group of Tubo soldiers began to return to the camp to rest. Early the next morning, Han Du left Songzhou City with [-] soldiers and horses, and rushed towards where Zhang Erhei and the others were.

At the same time, Songtsen Gampo continued to attack Songzhou City with the remaining soldiers and horses.

On the tower, Zhang Shouming was already waiting.

However, after taking a look at it, he realized that something was wrong. There were obviously fewer soldiers and horses in Tubo than yesterday, and a lot less.

"Over there, from last night to now, has there been any movement?"

Zhang Shouming felt that something was wrong. After he asked this question, a spy rushed over: "General, this morning, a group of Tubo soldiers left their barracks and rushed towards Longcheng."

"The direction of Longcheng?" Zhang Shouming frowned slightly. Zhang Erhei and the others were probably rushing here with soldiers and horses. Tubo sent troops to that place, apparently to intercept the [-] Tang troops.

After thinking about this, Zhang Shouming immediately felt bad. The Tubo soldiers and horses had a lot of people, and their strength was not weak. The soldiers and horses sent by Songtsan Gampo must be capable of defeating Zhang Erhei's [-] troops Soldiers?

The situation is not good.

However, now that Tubo troops are pressing down on the city, if they send troops to support Zhang Erhei, then Songzhou City will be in danger.

Once Songzhou City is breached, the situation will be really bad.

They simply don't have any extra troops to support Zhang Erhei. All he can do is to pin their hopes on themselves and hope that they can tide over this difficulty by themselves. This is something they have no choice about.

When Zhang Shouming was thinking this way, Songtsan Gampo waved his hand, and immediately after that, those Tubo soldiers rushed over like crazy.

Looking at the soldiers and horses rushing over, Zhang Shouming looked as usual, and ordered: "Fire, stop them."

Yesterday, 20 Tubo soldiers failed to capture Songzhou City. Now that there are so many Tubo soldiers and horses, how easy is it to capture Songzhou City?
The two sides fought quickly, and the corpses fell one after another, blood sprayed everywhere.

Although the Tubo soldiers attacked like crazy, their strength was so much smaller than yesterday, so naturally they couldn't attack Songzhou City.

One day passed like this, and the corpses under Songzhou City were piled up like a mountain.

The smell of blood pervades, making people sick to the stomach.

Zhang Shouming was used to seeing bloody people, and his expression was still calm. He believed that Tubo would continue to attack tomorrow, because they wanted to buy time for their own people to intercept Zhang Erhei and the others.

And as long as the Tubo soldiers and horses continue to attack, the soldiers and horses here will definitely not be able to be dispatched.

Even if Tubo lacked some soldiers, their strength is still strong. If they are not careful, Songzhou City may be attacked by them.

The cold wind was heavy, making people shiver all over.

Zhang Shouming looked into the distance and could only sigh softly in the end.

In a blink of an eye, the New Year has passed, but the weather at the border is still cold.

Zhang Erhei and Xu Jian rushed back with their troops. They already knew about the Tubo army attacking Songzhou City. They wanted to hurry back. As long as they rushed back, even if Tubo had 20 soldiers, then they Don't even think about capturing Songzhou City.

You know, Songzhou City is strong, and Zhang Shou's name is good at keeping it.

And just as they were rushing away in such a hurry, a spy suddenly ran over in a hurry.

"General, there are traces of Tubo soldiers and horses ahead. There are a large number of them, about [-]."

Hearing this news, Zhang Er's black eyes narrowed slightly, and at the same time he was a little puzzled. Isn't the Tubo soldiers attacking Songzhou City? Why are there [-] Tubo soldiers and horses here? There are so many of them.

Zhang Erhei glanced at Xu Jian, Xu Jian looked calm, and said: "General Zhang, we have jointly wiped out tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in Tubo, and Zanpu from Tubo may feel very unbalanced, and he wants to take advantage of us to go back." On the way, kill us too."

"Hmph, they Tubo really take themselves seriously, with [-] troops, can they destroy us?"
