Lianyunbao garrison Qianzong Zonglu turned around from the top of the watchtower and ordered angrily to all the garrison: "Stop and deal with these Tang troops as soon as possible!"
He saw Li Siye charging from left to right with a knife, and the hairs all over his body stood up, and the old nightmare seemed to reappear in his mind. Like a controlled marionette, he was forced to betray all the information about Tubo and Kagelu Dongdai, so that
There was no peace in his heart, and he felt like he was falling into an endless hell.
A few months ago, Gong Juezan escaped from Congling Shouchou and managed to escape all the way to Lianyun Fort. Fortunately, he intercepted him and chopped off his head. He thought that he would feel at ease after getting rid of the control of Tang Army Shouchou, but
His spirit was still anxious and tense. It was not until he saw Li Siye again today that he suddenly realized that this was where his heart ailed him, and that this powerful enemy who had captured him was the source of his inner fear.
"Go! Go! Kill! Whoever kills the leading Mo Dao General! I will reward him with five hundred Sasanian gold coins!"
Some of the Tibetan troops guarding the wall continued to throw stones downwards, while others wielded bows, arrows and spears to resist the internal impact.
Tian Zhen led a dozen people and rushed towards the south. The city wall there was made of wooden rafts. Although the wall pillars were sharpened, they looked more fragile. They had sharp knives in their hands to chop down the wooden wall, which was as easy as chopping firewood.
Li Siye led a dozen other people towards the west wall. When the enemy fired arrows, he lowered his head and resisted. Shan Wenjia had already been stabbed with several powerful arrows on his shoulders. Although his muscles and bones were not injured, he was still dripping with blood.
.
The three Gui shooters wielded iron hammers and flails and stood on the slope and struck downwards. The Yong guards took cover from the side and stabbed with longer spears. The Mo swordsmen struck forward and chopped off five or six spears.
The spear, however, the iron hammer of the flail had already been smashed down, with such force that the pointed helmet collapsed, and blood dripped from the face of a swordsman.
"kill!"
More Gui shooters rushed towards them with slaves in their arms. Li Siye immediately waved his hand and said: "Retreat first!"
He picked off the last Fierce Thunderbolt from his waist, rubbed fire with a flint on the horizontal knife, ignited it, held it in his hand and threw it towards the rear of the swarming enemies.
The Tubo people were running around as if a pot had exploded, but there was no explosion, and Li Siye stood there and took a breath of surprise.
"It's misfired! Cut me down while you're in trouble!"
The Mo swordsmen rushed forward together again, slashing and killing the scattered Yong Huzhu. Li Siye took the sword and stepped on the corpse and rushed towards the city wall. The Tubo young general waved the flail again. He jumped up with his legs bowed, the blade like
Bai Lian Xie ground, cut the connecting part of the flail into two pieces, quickly raised the knife horizontally and passed by the opponent.
Li Siye fell to the edge of the city wall, and the Guisheng's head rolled off his shoulders, and he fell to his knees on the ground.
The Tubo army who was throwing rocks down hurriedly grabbed the gun leaning against the wall. Li Siye swung his knife and chopped him down to the chest. The female wall at the crenellation was also swept down. Another man raised a broad-bladed knife and slashed at him.
Li Siye held the knife pole with both hands, raised his foot and kicked him in the chest, stepped forward, grabbed his armor and threw him off the city wall.
…
The fierce attack at the foot of the mountain continued. In order to reduce the pressure on Li Siye's internal breakthrough, Gao Xianzhi ordered the entire army to charge in sequence. He personally drew his horizontal sword to supervise the battle and shouted loudly: "Kill those who are afraid of fighting and avoid retreat!"
"Whoever climbs the mountain first will be rewarded with the rank of Captain at the sixth rank!"
"Two kings of the country, Shi Nian and Hu Mi! If your warriors can reach the top first, Xianzhi invites you to come to the capital to meet the saint!"
Gayan carried his injured little son to the back of the formation, took off his coat to reveal his gray braids, raised his horizontal sword and shouted: "Follow me to the top of the mountain and avenge my son!"
Luo Zhentan, the leader of the secret-protecting kingdom, also raised his golden-handled horizontal sword in his hand and loudly ordered: "Whoever reaches the top of the mountain first, I will reward him with five hundred argali sheep!"
The two armies converged on one place and charged towards the south slope. Arrows were continuously fired from the top of the city. The Tibetans had prepared a large amount of supplies in the city. The battle had been going on for an hour, but the arrows were still being fired.
The Tang army's attack on the east and west sides was extremely difficult. The Tubo army mobilized a large number of wood and stones here, and the leading soldiers holding shields were suppressed halfway up the mountain.
finally.
There was a momentary commotion on the top of the city. The enemies who threw stones turned around and started fighting. A corpse was thrown off the city wall. The Mo Dao wielded by Li Siye swept away half of the female wall.
Gao Xianzhi stared at the city head regardless of the scorching sun. He keenly noticed the sudden appearance of a fighter plane. He raised his blade and shouted hoarsely at Xi Slope: "Up Xi Slope! Rush up, the gap is open!"
The Tiaodang soldiers rushed up holding their shields, like sprinting for 100 meters to see who could rush faster. Finally, one person threw his shield up first, jumped up, grabbed the wall and rushed in.
On the south slope of the wooden raft wall, Tian Zhen also opened a gap. He and several Mo Daomen slashed the enemy and knocked down the wooden raft wall at the same time.
The allied forces of Shiji and Secret Guard were overjoyed. Gayancong stroked his gray beard, raised the horizontal sword in his hand, pointed at the gap and shouted: "The city wall has collapsed! Go up and support the Tang army!"
He was the first to lead the charge upward, and suddenly an arrow struck him diagonally, hitting him in the forehead. He turned around with his eyes widened, only to see a Tibetan general standing on the observation platform at the top of Lianyunbao holding a big bow, the old king.
His body slowly fell backwards.
"Master!" All the warriors stepped forward to help him.
Li Siye was leading his men with swords to kill the Tubo troops who were trying to fill the gap, but one man threw his shield over the wall and climbed up first. He chopped down a Gui shooter with his sword and looked back to see how he had gained the first place.
Who is the strong man?
But it was a familiar young face. Guo Xin was the former captain of the Kucha Tiaodang Battalion, and later served as the brigade commander. Now he is the captain of the third regiment of the Shule Tiaodang Battalion.
"It turns out to be you! This is what makes you stand out."
"General, be careful!" Guo Xin froze with a smile, threw out the shield in his hand, and nailed a powerful feather arrow on it, shooting through the copper cladding and the wooden board.
Li Siye squinted his pupils and looked in the direction where the arrow was shot. He saw a Tibetan general covered in chain mail and leather armor standing on the observation deck. His entire head was covered in chain mail and only his eye holes were dug out.
He threw the longbow on the ground in frustration. He was surrounded by five or six Gui archers who were protecting him, trying to rely on the watchtower to resist from a high position.
Although Li Siye couldn't see his face, he already recognized who it was and headed toward the observation deck with his Mo Dao.
The Tang Army, the Shini Army, and the Secret Guard Army had already invaded the city from two directions. Some of the Tubo Army threw away their weapons and surrendered, while the other part was still fighting back desperately. The two sides fought fiercely at hand-to-hand combat in the small Lianyun Fort.
The Tubo people did not have an advantage in armor and weapons, so they gradually retreated towards the observation tower. When the crossbowmen of the Tang army climbed up the city, the situation became clearer.
Killing, the Tubo soldiers fell one after another.
Li Siye personally carried Mo Dao and rushed to the observatory. Dozens of Gui shooters held up shields to protect Zong Lu in the center. Their spears stretched out from behind the shields and guarded the narrow stone stairs leading to the platform, still resisting.
.
This stone staircase can only accommodate one person climbing up, and the wall stacks on the observation deck are much stronger than the rest of Lianyun Fort. They hid behind the wall stacks, and a deadlock was formed for a while.
In fact, this is not a stalemate. The Tang army has controlled the entire Lianyun Fort, leaving only this high platform. They only need to wait until they run out of ammunition and food, and then they can enjoy the results.
Li Siye shouted to the stage: "Zong Lu, put down your weapon and I will spare you a way to live."
Zong Lu poked his head out of the shield and said angrily: "I have already surrendered to you once, do I have to surrender to you again?"
Li Siye said loudly: "If you want to commit suicide, you died eight years ago, why wait for today. Are you a pure Tubo? No! If Kagelu Dongdai really valued you, he would not have put you here.
Come to the bitter cold and lonely Lianyunbao. To surrender to the Tang Dynasty is to abandon darkness and surrender to the light. In the past, Lun Gongren, the grandson of Tubo great scholar Lu Dongzan, personally led seven thousand Tuyuhun troops to join the Tang Dynasty. After that, he made many military exploits and was awarded the title of Deputy Ambassador of Shuofang Jiedu.
Posthumously awarded the title of Prince of Bachuan County, the descendants of the Lun family are all our brave generals of the Tang Dynasty. Isn't it a bad idea for you?"
There was silence for a moment on the observation deck, then there was the sound of the tip of a knife hitting the ground, and then the sound of throwing weapons could be heard.
