Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 2428 Songzhou City Trapped

Although there was no news about the situation in Songzhou City, Qin Tian and the others knew very well that the border town was not safe.

Tubo captured Gancheng, but got nothing. If so, how could they let it go?

And since they are unwilling to give up, then other cities and the like will definitely become their targets.

There wasn't much delay in this matter, even though it was almost the Chinese New Year, Qin Tian still hurriedly assembled his troops.

For Qin Tian's situation, the Ninth Princess and the others are already a little bit used to it. Although they feel a little bit reluctant, they can accept it.

When the new year was approaching, Qin Tian rushed towards Songzhou City with [-] soldiers and horses. These soldiers and horses were all tiger and wolf divisions trained by Cheng Chumo and the others.

When the soldiers and horses continued to move forward, it was a different situation in Songzhou City.

Songtsan Gampo brought his soldiers and horses to the border of Songzhou City. Immediately afterwards, they rushed towards Songzhou City without any pause. They wanted to arrive at Songzhou City in the shortest possible time. Go down to Songzhou City.

However, when they rushed over, on the tower, Zhang Shouming's expression was as calm as usual.

"Songtsan Gampo, we haven't seen each other for a long time. I really didn't expect that you Tibetans would be so courageous, daring to take action against me, Tang Dynasty, and what's more, you came here in person. It seems that you are very serious about Songtsen Gampo. The state city is determined to be won, but this general can tell you that with this general around, your Tubo soldiers and horses will not even think about entering Songzhou city."

Zhang Shouming is very arrogant, very rude, and he does have the capital to be arrogant.

His defensive ability is not something that anyone can break through.

Songtsan Gampo's eyes were fixed, he didn't seem to expect Songzhou City to be so cautious.

But soon, he realized again.

Since the Tang army dared to send troops to Longcheng to besiege and kill Chegu, wouldn't it mean that they had expected that they would attack Songzhou City, so they wiped out their Tubo troops in advance.

Otherwise, if Chegu's [-] soldiers rushed to Songzhou City, Songzhou City would be even more precarious.

After understanding this, Songtsan Gampo felt a little more worried. It was too scary that Datang could guess their thoughts.

But now, they have no choice but to attack Tubo.

Songtsan Gampo took a look at Zhang Shouming, and laughed: "General Zhang is very famous, I have heard of it, but you want to stop my 20 troops from Tubo, you think too much of yourself , I, Tubo, is bound to win Songzhou City. If you are willing to open the city and surrender, then everything will be fine. I, Tubo, have never committed any crime against the people of Songzhou City, but if you fight to the death, after the city is broken, we will They massacred the city for three days, and let the blood of Songzhou City flow like a river."

There was threat in the words, but Zhang Shouming was not frightened at all.

Because in his opinion, Tubo soldiers and horses can't break Songzhou City at all. Since Songzhou City can't be broken, then what he said is all nonsense.

Zhang Shouming just chuckled and said nothing.

Songtsan Gampo's face suddenly became a little ugly, a little warm and angry. Although Zhang Shouming didn't say anything, he laughed, obviously full of contempt and contempt for him.

He is the king of Tubo, Zanpu of Tubo. When did he suffer such contempt?
"Damn it, I'm really looking for death, come and attack the city for me."

Songtsan Gampo shouted angrily, he was too lazy to talk nonsense to Zhang Shouming.

And just after he shouted angrily, Tubo soldiers rushed over swarming.

It was cold and the wind blew like a knife.

But facing this kind of weather, the Tubo soldiers completely ignored it.

There is a desire in their hearts to capture Songzhou City, and this desire makes them fearless. They must capture Songzhou City, which is related to their safety in Tubo, their life and death.

The Tubo soldiers were desperate, but on the tower, Zhang Shouming's expression was as usual, he looked at the Tubo soldiers and horses below the city, and immediately shouted: "Launch."

For a time, sharp arrows rained like rain.

Before the Tubo soldiers rushed over, they were shot to death by sharp arrows.

However, even if the soldiers in front were shot, the Tubo soldiers still didn't have the slightest intention of retreating, they kept rushing forward, they were no longer afraid of life and death.

On the tower, Zhang Shouming frowned for the first time after seeing this situation in Tubo. This time, the Tubo soldiers and horses were different from the Tubo soldiers and horses he encountered before. They all had a feeling of death ah.

And once the soldiers have such momentum, it is not an easy task to defeat them.

He knew that something must have caused these people in Tubo to feel a sense of crisis, and this sense of crisis made them have to capture Songzhou City.

Is it the snow disaster in Tubo?
Or maybe they already knew that Tang Dynasty was going to destroy Tubo, so they were so desperate?
But no matter what the reason is, this situation in Tubo is not a good thing for them.

"Stop them for me. The imperial court has already sent reinforcements. We have to support them until the arrival of the reinforcements. Let me kill them."

Zhang Shouming also knows how to boost morale, and also knows how to make the soldiers work hard. Sometimes, hope is the best reason. Give them hope, let them know that Songzhou City is possible, and then they will give everything The strength that can be given is to defend Songzhou City.

The Tubo soldiers and horses attacked fiercely, but the Tang soldiers were also desperately defending the city.

They repelled wave after wave of Tubo soldiers.

The sky was getting dark gradually, and the cold wind was heavy, making people feel shivering from the cold. Many soldiers began to get tired, and their arms were trembling.

But Tang Jun on the tower was still firm.

Tubo's soldiers and horses were repelled again.

"Zanpu, do you want to continue the attack?"

Songtsan Gampo looked at Zhang Shouming on the tower, and couldn't help sighing: "I heard that Zhang Shouming is a general who is good at defense. I saw him today, and he really deserves his reputation. He wants to capture Songzhou City." , I’m afraid it won’t be easy, we have to make long-term plans.”

Since Songzhou City cannot be captured in one day, all they can do is make long-term plans.

"The soldiers have come from a long journey and have fought for another day. They are very tired. Order to go down and retreat. After we have a rest, we will come to attack the city. This Songzhou City, I, Tubo, is bound to win, and there is one more thing Things need us to do, let’s go back first.”

There was one thing that Songtsen Gampo thought they had to do. They lost tens of thousands of soldiers and horses. It was a pity that he would not be happy if Tang Jun did not lose some soldiers and horses.

He also needs Datang to pay the price.
