The Tibetan and Turkic coalition forces suddenly launched another attack.
"Dong dong dong!"
"Woo——"
The war drums roared and the horns whined, causing the sky and the earth to change color.
At this moment, the wind stopped, the clouds dispersed, and the birds flew away in fright.
At this moment, the soldiers on the Qinzhou city wall looked up into the distance, their eyes calm, solemn, and without any timidity. The battle in the morning not only showed majesty, but also boosted morale and confidence. More importantly, military pay and pensions were paid out in a timely manner. This made
Everyone feels very peaceful.
Anyway, there are a lot of gold, silver and jewels stolen by the Tibetans in the city, which can be used to win over the morale of the army.
Qin Huaidao felt the morale of the soldiers, looked at the noisy enemy camp, and was full of confidence. Suddenly his pupils shrank suddenly, and then he opened his eyes and stared straight ahead, and his expression changed drastically.
The soldiers also widened their eyes and looked ahead in disbelief, especially the Tang soldiers. The hands holding their sabers rattled and their steel teeth clenched, and they were all furious.
"People, including women, children and the elderly, will not be spared, these beasts."
"Uncle?"
Luo Wu said and looked at Qin Huaidao, his eyes full of anger.
"Why are you so anxious? Didn't you already know this?" Qin Huaidao said with an indifferent expression. Although he received a message from Luo Zhangfei Ge at noon, informing him that Tibet and Turks were arresting ordinary people, he was still so angry when he saw it with his own eyes that he punched
Hit it on the wall.
Luo Wu said angrily: "I knew it earlier, but seeing it is another matter. I will definitely kill that bastard Lun Qinling and that old Turk, these beasts. Otherwise, I will never get rid of this bad temper."
"Lun Qinling is mine." Fang Yiai said coldly.
"We have already made arrangements. Why are you in a hurry? Don't talk nonsense to interfere with uncle's decision-making." Luo Ying looked at Luo Wu and reminded him, his face was also livid with anger.
Fighting on the battlefield depends on one's own methods, but when people are involved, the nature changes.
This is something that no passionate soldier can tolerate or accept.
After a while.
A large number of enemy troops escorted thousands of people over, and Lun Qinling was among them. He shouted loudly: "King of Han, don't you claim to be benevolent and righteous and considerate of the people? Open the city gate and surrender, all in your name, otherwise you will kill these people.
Murderer of human beings, I’ll give you a stick of incense and time to think about it.”
Qin Huaidao looked at the people with eyes full of sympathy. If he were one person, he would die, but there were tens of thousands of soldiers around him. What qualifications did he have to ask everyone to put down their swords and wait to die?
The sunset was like fire, covering Qin Huaidao, adding an extra layer of light. It was a combination of extreme anger and extreme calmness, and a fighting spirit that wanted to rush forward and kill everyone.
But he remained motionless, like a sculpture of the God of War!
At this time, Lun Qinling's strange voice sounded again: "Why, I don't want to think about it, then I, the prince, will kill them all now, raise my sword!"
At the end of the sentence, the voice suddenly rose in pitch, like a demon roaring.
Countless people raised their sabers, locking eyes on the people in front. The blades of the sabers reflected the glow, alluring and indifferent.
Many people cried, knelt on the ground, and kept kowtowing to beg for mercy, but the Tibetan soldiers were unmoved, as cold as wolves, and could cut them down at any time with their raised swords.
"No - I don't want to die."
A young and strong man suddenly let out a hysterical scream and rushed forward, as if he could survive this way.
Lun Qinling picked up the bow in the guard's hand, drew the bow and nocked an arrow, and took action decisively.
The arrow flew away and killed Qing Zhuang to the ground.
The cold and cruel methods shocked the people.
Lun Qinling proudly threw the great achievement to the guards and shouted loudly: "King of Han, have you seen this? If we don't open the city gate, everyone will die. There is not much time left for you. Don't worry, as long as you surrender, you will do as promised."
constant."
The method of adding sweet dates to a big stick is skillful.
Qin Huaidao looked at this scene coldly, his heart ached, but he did not lose his mind. His murderous intention became more and more intense, and he shouted: "Fellow fellow citizens, I, Qin Huaidao, swear by the honor of my ancestors, I will bury you generously and kill all these Tubo dogs."
The thief will avenge you, and in half a year he will take the head of the Tibetan King Ludongzan's dog to honor you. If you violate this oath, you will be punished by heaven and earth."
The ancients valued filial piety, believed in ghosts and gods, and swearing by their ancestors was the highest oath.
When the people heard this, they stopped crying, panicking, and being afraid. They just stared at the city wall without saying a word.
Lun Qinling felt inexplicably cold and realized that he had done something stupid again.
But the arrow has to be fired when the arrow is on the string. If we don't capture Qinzhou and kill the King of Han, we will have to do it, and Tubo will be exterminated. There is no room for maneuver and we can only go to the dark side.
Just as he was about to speak, Qin Huaidao's roar came to his ears: "Turkic Khan, you old dog, listen, if I don't kill you, I swear that I will not be a human being, and I will not destroy you, Turks. I will be joined by five thunders, and you will be wiped out in ashes. The heaven and earth bear witness."
,Old dog, no one in the world can save you, I, Qin Huaidao said."
The Turkic Khan, who had been silent all this time, felt his heart skip a beat. This was—he had provoked a murderous god.
Lun Qinling looked at the Khan with a complicated expression and said solemnly, "Great Khan, you and I have no retreat. Either he dies or we perish. Let's fight."
"I was killed by you, then let's fight." Khan said depressedly.
With an order, the war drums roared again.
The people were pushed forward to serve as human shields, while the coalition forces hid behind them.
This time, the Tibetan and Turkic coalition forces only attacked the east gate, but the other three gates also sent heavy troops to keep an eye on them. They would definitely take action if there was an opportunity, so they had to be on guard.
Qin Huaidao saw that the enemy could not force him to attack, so he breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he was alive, he would have a chance to rescue him. He shouted loudly: "Send the order, the original plan will be slightly changed, capture as many prisoners as possible, and exchange hostages."
"Understood!" Luo Wu agreed quickly and called a few guards to give them some careful instructions.
Several people nodded one after another and ran to deliver the order.
The coalition forces are getting closer and closer, already beyond a stone's throw, and are about to reach the city wall.
The last time the enemy attacked, they didn't even shoot arrows. They were let in to fight. This time there were hostages who couldn't even shoot arrows. Everyone watched coldly as the enemy troops got closer and closer until countless enemy troops stopped, bows and arrows drawn, and they followed the pre-arranged agreement.
They hid under the wooden shed one after another.
Qin Huaidao also hid under the shed, his face gloomy and scary.
Different from the last battle, this time the swordsmen and shields were on the outside, and the archers were in the middle of the crowd to support them. Everyone heard the sound of the ladder being set up and remained unmoved, staring at the wall without saying a word.
Soon, the coalition forces crazily climbed up without encountering any resistance. There were thousands of people serving as hostages under the city. They were not afraid of explosives being dropped from above. They were all very scared and very confident.
In the distance, Lun Qinling also watched this scene excitedly and said proudly to the Khan: "Great Khan, do you see that as long as the hostages are in hand, they will not dare to blow up. As long as they don't blow up, our people can kill them."
Climb up the city wall, and when the time comes, with the superior strength of your troops and mine, it will only take a matter of time to capture Qinzhou."
"It makes sense. This is a good plan." The Khan also secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He was really frightened by Qin Huaidao's previous vow not to conquer Qinzhou and kill Qin Huaidao, and felt uneasy.
Lun Qinling said more and more proudly: "After the warriors in the front kill the city, the second group can increase the manpower and try to conquer Qinzhou in one go. How about it?"
"No problem. Just open the city gate and I will send 20,000 people to rush in. How about that?"
"Okay, then there will be no one less prince." Lun Qinling said with satisfaction, his eyes gleaming, as if he saw Qinzhou conquered and the Tubo flag planted on the top of the city.
The two looked at each other and laughed in unison.
However, the soldiers who climbed up to the top of the city couldn't laugh anymore. The entire top of the city wall was sealed every two meters, and it looked very strong. Everyone had no choice but to jump to the unsealed area.
However, something more terrible happened.
As soon as I landed, I felt a sharp pain in my calf, as if I had been slashed with a sharp blade. I couldn't help but scream and fell to the ground. I felt like I was being caught and dragged by something, and I was shocked.
The person was dragged under the shed. According to the original plan, he would be chopped to death and thrown out of the city. However, Qin Huaidao temporarily modified the order. Everyone would throw the person into the city. There would be special personnel to capture him below the city, and the prisoners would be exchanged for hostages.
More and more coalition forces jumped down, some of them could not be killed, and the archers began to take action. Everyone squatted on the ground, found the right angle to shoot the enemies who had just climbed up, and shot directly down to stop the climbing speed.
After all the people who jumped down were killed and dropped into the city, the archers stopped shooting and responded instead.
After receiving Luo Zhang's order for this tactic, Qin Huaidao specifically consulted with military officers above the division level to determine the tactics, practiced them, and the cooperation was quite tacit.
At this moment, the city wall was like a giant gluttonous beast, no matter how much it jumped down, it swallowed it, no one was spared, and the harvest continued. Some enemy soldiers who had no time to jump and ran to the shed were also specially taken care of by the archers and shot down.
However, the enemy troops behind did not know this and kept climbing up and jumping down.
