The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 105 Against
"General!"

The enemy general suddenly fell off his horse, and the surrounding Tubo soldiers quickly surrounded him.

"I will be fine!" The enemy general climbed up with difficulty, and pulled out the sharp arrow that pierced him.

It turned out that when Xuan Shijing shot the arrow, the deviation in hesitation did not hit the vital point of the enemy general, but only hit the shoulder, causing him some slight injuries. However, despite this, it also reached the point where Xuan Shijing The desired effect, an arrow wounded the enemy generals who were clamoring outside the city, the Tang army on the city wall was greatly encouraged, cheered one after another, and in turn sneered at the Tubo people below.

"Tubo people, apart from Lu Dongzan and Songtsan Gampo, this generation has never heard of any great talents. I really don't know where they got the courage to compete with Datang." Xuan Shijing's breath was a bit heavy, the arrow just now really consumed a lot of energy.

Long'er at the side hurriedly put on the cloak for Xuan Shijing.

"It's probably just to show off to Datang. This time they came to Datang to ask for a marriage, and they became angry from embarrassment." Cheng Chumo said disdainfully.

Before Xuan Shijing could speak, he could hear the enemy general shouting: "Dang people above, don't be complacent, when the general breaks down the city, he will definitely cut you to pieces."

He also yelled, if Xuan Shijing was him, he would have hid in the back a long time ago, what's the matter of being injured and still showing off in front of the battle.

Cheng Chumo was about to reply, but Xuan Shijing stopped him, and said with a smile: "It's a small matter, just let me go back and forth with him."

Because Xuan Shijing suddenly remembered the scene in the story of the Three Kingdoms where Zhuge Liang killed Wang Lang in anger. This enemy general has such a violent temper, if you stimulate him, maybe you can get unexpected results.Xuan Shijing squinted his eyes and looked down with a smile.

"The one down there who is blind and biking, come up if you have the ability. If I were you, I would have been unable to hide behind this arrow. I said you don't have a brain, and you are still messing around in front of the battle. Don't be afraid. Do you want another arrow from my master?" Xuan Shijing shouted down.

When everyone on the city wall heard the words, they laughed loudly: "That's right, the thief general, if you have the ability, hurry up, the grandpas are waiting for you."

The enemy general was also a proud and arrogant person, how could he bear such verbal stimulation, his face flushed instantly, his eyes widened with anger, and he shouted: "Wait for me, all the soldiers obey the order! Siege the city!" He pulled out the scimitar from his waist and pointed it at the city wall ahead.

Xuan Shijing was really fooled, once the words were aroused, the grumpy one could no longer bear it, but what Xuan Shijing didn't know was that in this year, when the young and vigorous generals scolded each other before the battle, it was nothing more than Lao Tzu, Sun Tzu, Zhu Zi, etc., are not polite at all like Xuan Shijing, he is really the first.

The Tubo army rushed to the city wall like a tide, and the Tang army on the city wall held their weapons tightly and stood ready.

Just wait for the enemy to attack?Xuan Shijing looked at Tang Jun on the city wall in disbelief. Isn't it all about rolling wood and stones, scalding oil, and throwing something down?

"Brother Chu Mo, don't you have any defensive materials in Shicheng?" Xuan Shijing couldn't help asking.

"What supplies?" Cheng Chu was puzzled.

"Boulder, The Log"

"Why do you need those laborious things? When the enemy comes up, just kill them to your heart's content. The stone city is surrounded by deserts. Not to mention rolling logs, you have to run a long way to find a branch to start a fire, let alone a huge rock. That's right, this place is full of gravel." Cheng Chumo explained, and he also knew that the battle would be easier with these materials for defending the city, but the surrounding environment determines that once a fight is fought in this kind of place, It's just a meat grinder, and it can only fight with swords abruptly.

When Xuan Shijing heard this, he realized that it was not that he was unprepared, but that there was really nothing to prepare for.

Soon, the Tubo army began to erect ladders and climb up the city wall.

A ladder was erected on the city wall beside Xuan Shijing. Judging from the trembling ladder, there must be someone climbing up below. Xuan Shijing stepped forward and pushed hard, and the ladder was pushed out. , The Tubo soldiers who had only climbed halfway fell from the air. This time, they were probably either dead or injured, and they were no longer able to fight.

Sharp-eyed soldiers saw Xuan Shijing's actions and followed suit one after another. For a while, the Tubo people didn't even go up the city wall, and could only stare blankly below.

In fact, if the enemy general had some sense, he would not have directed the entire army to attack the city, leaving at least some archers to suppress the Tang army on the city wall.

Seeing this, Cheng Chumo hurriedly gave an order: "Some people specially push down the ladders on the city wall, and the rest use bows and arrows to aim at the enemy troops outside the city and shoot fiercely."

Hearing this, the soldiers on the city wall put their spears aside one after another, untied the bows and arrows behind their backs, bent their bows and set up arrows, and aimed at the Tubo people outside the city.

Although these sergeants' arrow skills were not as accurate as Xuan Shijing's, they were superior in strength and numbers. A shower of arrows shot towards the Tubo people, and they harvested a small area in an instant.

Perhaps the battlefield was too fierce, Long'er never looked down, Xuan Shijing saw this and said, "Long'er, let's go to the tower."

Long'er nodded, and followed Xuan Shijing into the tower.

Xuan Shijing left, and Cheng Chumo also breathed a sigh of relief. Although Xuan Shijing played a big role here, he was always afraid of accidentally hurting him due to the dangers of the battlefield. Now that he has entered the tower, he can also open up to the people below. The little bastards are doing a good job.

The sun outside has slowly risen, and the Tang army in Shicheng and the Tubo army outside are still in a stalemate, but as far as the current situation is concerned, the Tang army still has the upper hand, but there will always be a moment when the arrows run out. At that time, it was still necessary to fight the Tubo people with real knives and guns.

Xuan Shijing took off the heavy cloak on his body. The temperature gradually increased, so he could no longer use it. He folded it and put it on the table. He glanced at the brazier in the corner. He hadn't added firewood to it for a long time, and it was about to go out now. Yes, there is still some hot water in the pot, Xuan Shijing scooped out some and planned to let it dry before drinking.

At this time, there seemed to be a new situation outside the city.

Seeing that the small stone city could not be attacked for a long time, the enemy general was also anxious, so he almost took the knife himself.

"General, our rear camp has been attacked!" A man dressed as a Tubo scout rode up to the enemy general and said in a panic.

"What? Who did it." The enemy general looked at the scout in disbelief.

"I don't know, those people don't wear the armor of the Tang army. Judging by their attire, they look like thugs in the desert. There are more than 1000 people in our camp, and they only have more than 200 people. came in, hacked and killed for a while, then set fire everywhere, and ran away after setting the fire." The scout said.

"Damn it, it must be the trick of those Tang troops in Shicheng." The enemy general spat: "Cunning Datang people, send an order to withdraw troops! Return to camp!"

The most important thing right now is to keep their old nest and fight in the territory of the Tang Dynasty. If the camp is lost, it will be difficult for these Tubo people.
