Gao Xianzhi looked up at the mountain eagerly, sweating in his heart for Li Siye. He knew that this man liked to come up with unexpected new ideas, but the top of the mountain was not low.
Li Siye was very grateful for the strong physical fitness brought to him by years of armor training. After taking off the armor, he was as light as if he could fly. He easily climbed more than twenty feet, but there was a nearly vertical rock wall above. He had to be extra careful.
, first nail the rock drill into the rock gap to fix the safety rope, and then dig out a way to climb upward.
There are thick mudstones and gneisses on the mountain. The hardness of these stones is very low. He did not waste much energy in digging out the shallow holes. On the contrary, the loose stones fell from his feet, which put him in a high state of mental stress.
Stretched state.
When approaching the top of the mountain, Lianyunbao Castle appeared at his feet. The slightly flat platform created the best conditions for its construction. The Tubo people renovated the top of the mountain, and part of the mudstone and rammed earth walls faced the east and west slopes.
The south slope and the south slope are made of wooden walls. Mud houses and felt tents are mixed and juxtaposed. Soldiers are stationed at the lookouts and crenels at the four corners of the wall.
The Tubo people discovered the Tang army at the foot of the mountain, but they knew it was too late. If they attacked the Tang army while they were halfway across the country in the early hours of this morning, the Tang army would definitely be defeated.
Even Gao Xianzhi himself said to Bian Lingcheng: "The thieves came to me halfway, but I was defeated. Now that I have been rescued, God has given me this bandit."
Now the Tang army is in formation down the mountain, and the Tubo people are lying on the city wall, erecting their spears and picking up their bows and arrows. From the fierce scoldings of the officers and their brief panic, we can see how nervous the Tubo people are. But the one who is more nervous now is Li Siye.
The movement of his climb should not be too loud. If they were to discover it, they would control the top of the mountain tightly, and his surprise attack would eventually fail.
He grabbed the bare rock on the top of the mountain with both hands and finally climbed to the top. After taking a short rest, he used a short knife to carve a tying groove on the rock, then tied it with a hemp rope and fixed it. Finally, he tried to pull it firmly and it was strong.
.He tied the other end of the rope with rocks and lowered it down the hillside, and soon landed at the bottom of the mountain.
The athletes of the front team tied the Mo Dao behind their backs and climbed up one by one with the ropes. However, the narrow mountain top could not accommodate so many people, so they had to reduce the number of people to the top by half. The soldiers brought Li Siye's armor up to help
He put it on, and finally put it on and tied the laces.
The last few soldiers held on to the rope and climbed slowly along the wall. One of them kicked off a large piece of rock. The broken rock jumped and rolled down, knocking the sword hand at the bottom out of his hand, and rolled down the mountain with a groan.
Gao Xianzhi ordered people to go over and take a look. The face under the pointed helmet was already blurred with blood, and he was obviously dead.
The Tubo people made a chirping cry, and they noticed the movement on the north slope. Several Gui archers led the Yong guards and slowly approached the top of the mountain. They clutched their spears tightly and held dozens of long bows in their hands.
Full of bowstrings. The atmosphere finally reached the most tense moment, as if a huge boulder was hanging on a rope that was about to break, and was about to explode.
There were still two or three people hanging in the air holding their breath, but they could no longer wait at this moment.
Li Siye took out three bundles of fierce fire thunder from his backpack and distributed them to the two people around him. They climbed on the top of the mountain and lit them with fire sticks, staring at the twisters and gradually shortening them as the sparks jumped.
The time is at the beginning of the twelfth lunar month, the last breath before the war.
"Throw it away!" Li Siye shouted violently.
Three bundles of fierce fire thunder fell towards the Tibetan army formation close to the top of the mountain. The thunderous explosion set off raging flames. The Yongguis were blown to pieces. They rolled and climbed with the fire on their backs, screaming in agony.
Everlasting.
"kill!"
Li Siye was the first to grab the Mo Dao, rush out of the mountain and sit on the slope, sliding down. The others followed closely behind him, the crotch of his armor robe rubbing against the rocks, pulling out streaks of smoke.
He stood up from the ground with his sword in hand, rushed towards Lianyun Castle, jumped over the still churning flames, and swung his long pole to cut down a Tibetan general who was blocking him to the ground. The other swordsmen followed him,
The array forming a herringbone line slashed forward.
…
The Tang army standing at the foot of the mountain waited in formation. Tiao Dang stood in the front line holding a shield and a sword. The vanguard, infantry and spearmen were in the second echelon, and the crossbowmen were close to the third echelon. Everyone looked nervously.
On the top of the mountain, wait for the signal from the commando team.
As there was a thunderous sound on the top of the mountain, flames rose and thick black smoke rolled up. Gao Xianzhi was so happy that the veins on his forehead popped out and he ordered loudly: "Attack on three sides, come on!"
The Tang army mainly attacked the east and west slopes built with rammed earth walls, while the Shini Kingdom and the Humi Kingdom attacked the southern slope with wooden raft walls. The dancers held their shields above their heads and charged towards the hillside with shouts.
The Tubo soldiers poked their heads out from the parapet, and pulled their long bows and fired downwards. The first round of arrow rain was the most violent as usual, like hail falling downwards. The shield surface made a tinkling sound, and the arrows shot from the top of the shield.
It passed by and shot the spearmen following behind to the ground. Most of the soldiers were hit by arrows in the face and rolled down the hillside, screaming in pain.
"Don't fucking look up, keep your head down and climb up!"
Shields and armor could withstand most of the arrows. The vanguard of the Tang army gradually approached the base of the city wall. Suddenly, a wooden hammer with a rope tied to it was thrown down from the top of the wall. The smoke and dust rolled downwards, knocking down the jumping soldiers at the head of the row, and carrying five of them with them.
The six men tumbled down the mountain. The Tibetan soldiers raised stones and threw them downwards. The stones jumped and rolled down the hillside. Some of the Tang soldiers were hit with bruises on their heads and bleeding, and they retreated downwards.
The attack by the Allied Forces on the other side was more difficult. Most of them were wearing leather armor, and their protection against arrows was too weak. After a round of arrows, they fell over.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Gayan personally charged forward with his shield. He was wearing the golden light armor given by Li Longji himself, which made him stand out among the pile of brown leather armor.
"My fellow tribesmen, follow me up the mountain. Whoever reaches the top first will be rewarded with 500 argali sheep!"
"Father!" Ruosuluo hurriedly led others to rush forward, protecting his father, and said loudly: "You are behind me!"
"Luo Yazi! I don't need you to block the arrows, come behind me!"
A piece the size of a basket jumped and flew down. Ruosuluo hurriedly grabbed Gayancong's shoulders and blocked him in front of him. The flying stone hit his back, and blood spurted out of Ruosuluo's mouth, covering the old man's face.
"Ruosuluo!" The father and son hugged each other and rolled down the hillside.
More rocks were smashed down from the hillside, and the half-charged Secret Guard Army collapsed and retreated.
…
Li Siye took the lead and rushed into the fortress. He swung his Mo Dao horizontally and swept away the head of a Gui shooter. Blood spurted from his shoulders. Six or seven Yong guards held pewter spears and aimed their spear heads at him. Two of them stabbed him.
Mingmo swordsmen flashed out from both sides, the blade flew up and down, and the spear fell to the ground with great force. The spear shaft was cut off and shattered. Li Siye slashed horizontally with the sword, and blood mist splattered on the chests of the Fan soldiers when the blade passed by.
"Work in groups of five. Don't scatter. Fight to the city wall!"
They approached a felt tent, and the Yong guards swarmed in, driven by Gui Archers. These unarmored slaves resisted Mo Dao with their flesh and blood. Behind them, there were Gui Archers in chainmail.
Cold arrow.
The swordsman beside Li Siye was shot in the face with an arrow, and his eyes were filled with blood.
"Kill! Ah!"
The pain and anger drove him crazy. He held the Mo Dao in his hand and stabbed forward, pushing down the slaves in front of him like a pile of Arhats. Gui Archer calmly saw the opportunity and stabbed him with a broad-edged sword.
in the throat.
Before Archer Gui could retract his arm, the sword struck him like a white sword, and the whole arm flew out with all the broken bones. His teeth were bitten with blood, and before he could scream, another sword struck like lightning, along the
The shoulder was cut to the chest and ribs, and the whole person collapsed to the ground as if falling apart.
Li Siye stepped on Fan Bing's shoulder and pulled Mo Dao out. He suddenly turned around and quickly raised his right arm. A feather arrow shot through his arm guard, and blood flowed out along his wrist.
He suddenly turned his gaze. Not far away, a Gui archer wearing chainmail was aiming his bow at him. Then several slaves stood in front of him and rushed toward him. Li Siye swung his sword to kill him.
These people took a few steps back, jumped up with their swords in hand, stepped on the adobe wall, and strode forward. The spear heads of the Yong guardians were swiping at the top of the wall. He had already jumped up again, like a attacking leopard.
, under the unbelievable gaze of Archer Gui, he rushed towards him with the blade wrapped around him.
The moment he jumped from the wall to the ground, the arrow from Gui Archer's bow shot out, grazing his right arm. Before Li Siye's feet landed, the blade of the blade tilted and cut like a piece of cloth. When he landed, Gui Archer was already dead
It was broken into two pieces and abandoned at the corner of the wall.
Dozens of swordsmen behind him rushed left and right, slashing the Tibetan army blocking the front to the ground like cutting grass. Their broken limbs were trampled under their feet, and their blood was trampled into red mud.
