bastard seizes tang

Chapter 922
Tang Jun moved very quickly. From Nancongxiang offering the city to Tang Jun taking the city, it took less than a stick of incense before and after, and the east gate of Luoxi City had already changed hands. The sensuality has changed hands.

As soon as the east gate was broken, there was a huge and irreparable gap in the defense of Luoxi City.

The combat power of the Luoxie army cannot be compared with the Tang army. In the past, the Luoxie army could resist the Tang army for many days, relying on the strong Luoxie city, but now the east gate has been broken, and the Tang army can enter the city, which means that the Luoxie army can resist the Tang army for many days. The city has lost its role in resisting the Tang army.

Ever since, after Li Ke and his Beiya imperial guards, more than [-] Tang elites poured in from the east gate, some surrounded the other three gates to occupy the whole area, and some captured the arsenal, grain and grass in the city. To stabilize the overall situation, Li Ke personally led the Beiya Imperial Guards, and went straight to the Potala Palace under the guidance of Nan Congxiang, in order to capture Tubo Zanpu Gongri Gongzan alive.

The Potala Palace is in the north of Luoxie City, not far from the east gate that Li Ke broke open. Li Ke led Qingqi into the city, but it took him a cup of tea to get outside the Potala Palace.

The Potala Palace was built on the top of the Red Mountain, and it was built on the basis of the mountain. When the palace was built, it was a waste of money and people.

On the plateau, the Potala Palace is definitely a unique palace, but when Li Ke saw the current Potala Palace with his own eyes, although he was admiring in his heart, he was more or less disappointed.

No matter when, the Potala Palace is naturally incomparable with Daming Palace and Taiji Palace in terms of scale and grandeur, but it is not the same as Li Ke's original expectation.

The current Potala Palace is far from the scale of later generations. It is different from the grand palace in Li Ke's mind, which is like a giant dragon entrenched in the mountains. The strong castle that was born has a military purpose visible to the naked eye, rather than a palace where the king lives.

But thinking about it, the Potala Palace in Li Ke's mind was built after several wars, and then expanded and rebuilt several times. Naturally, it is not comparable to the current Potala Palace.

"Your Majesty, this is the Potala Palace." Nan Congxiang rode his horse and stood behind Li Ke, and said to Li Ke flatteringly.

Li Ke praised: "Qizong Nongzan is worthy of being a king who was born in the army. The Potala Palace is excellent in terms of site selection and construction."

For Li Ke, the Potala Palace may not be an excellent emperor's residence now, but it is definitely an excellent fortress. The outer walls of the Potala Palace are as high as Zhang Xu, and the palace gates are placed in dangerous places, which is definitely easy to defend. Difficult to attack.

It is not surprising that the Potala Palace will have such a layout, because Langri Songtsan, the biological father of Qizong Nongzan, died in the civil strife. some.

In this way, even if there is a rebellion by the rebels, as long as Tubo Zanpu is still in the Potala Palace, as long as he leads his cronies to guard the fortress of the Potala Palace, Zanpu's safety can be guaranteed and he will wait for reinforcements.

Qi Zong Nongzan, as the actual founding king of the Tubo Dynasty, his idea is naturally excellent, but it is a pity that it has not really come in handy, because the crisis Zanpu is facing now is not the danger of civil strife, but the crisis brought by the Tang Dynasty. The coming danger of destroying the country.It was not a small group of rebels who attacked the Potala Palace, but the most skilled Tang elite in the world.

Li Ke looked at the Potala Palace standing on the mountain, and asked Nan Cong Xiang: "How many permanent troops are there in the Potala Palace?"

Nan Congxiang replied without hesitation: "The Potala Palace usually has more than 2000 soldiers, but since His Majesty besieged the city, Gongri Gongzan ordered some of the garrison troops in the palace to be transferred to defend the city. There are [-] people."

Hearing this, Li Ke nodded and smiled, "A mere two thousand defenders is nothing."

Li Ke said, and said to Mr. Xi beside him: "Send the order, the soldiers are ready to attack. Tomorrow morning, I will go to the Potala Palace to watch the sun."

Li Ke wants to go to the Potala Palace to watch the sunrise in the morning, but he is telling Xi Junmai that he only has two hours to attack the city at most, and he must take the Potala Palace before dawn.

What Li Ke bought for Mr. Xi was a strict order, asking him to capture the Potala Palace in about two hours. Mr. Xi bought the order and immediately arranged for troops to attack the city, but at this moment, Nan Congxiang spoke up.

"Your Majesty wants to destroy the Potala Palace. Why do you need to compromise your troops to force the attack? You only need to send one person into the palace to persuade you to surrender. Your Majesty has already entered the city. It is meaningless for the Tubo people to resist in a corner. Based on my understanding of Gongri Gongzan, he I won’t stick to it to the end.” Nan Congxiang already regarded himself as a Tang official, and was very active in making suggestions to Li Ke.

Li Ke listened to Nan Congxiang's words, thought about it carefully, and probably understood what Nan Congxiang meant, Li Ke asked with a smile: "You mean Chisang Yangdun?"

Nan Congxiang said: "It is Chisang Yangdun. Although Gongri Gongzan is Zanpu, he has no idea when it comes to critical moments. Now that His Majesty's army is approaching, he must have been discouraged at this time. This At that time, as long as Chisang Yangdun comes forward, he will be able to persuade Gongri Gongzan to surrender."

What Nan Congxiang said was correct, Gongri Gongzan was not a hard-headed person, and he probably didn't have the determination to live and die with others. At this time, as long as the respected Chisang Yangdun came forward, he would most likely be able to persuade Gongri Gongzan to surrender.

This can indeed save a lot of effort, but this is not what Li Ke meant. Li Ke can learn from Wang Xuance that some people are still full of hostility towards the arrival of the Tang army because of the battle of Nonggegu. People hate Tang Jun more.

Hatred will cause confrontation, and confrontation will bring anxiety. This is naturally not conducive to Tang Ting's control over logic and the entire Tubo. Li Ke does not want hatred.

But now that the relationship between the two armies is like this, it is absolutely impossible to expect to ease the relationship, so the method Li Ke chose is to turn some people's hatred of the Tang army into fear, so that they dare not make things difficult for the Tang army. The first battle is inevitable, and Li Ke wants to scare the Tubo people through the first battle.

The Potala Palace is where Tubo Tsampo is located, and it is an unattainable place in the eyes of Tubo people. This is Li Ke's best choice for Tang Ting Liwei, so Li Ke does not want to occupy the Potala Palace in a peaceful way. What he wants is a war.

Li Ke said to Nan Congxiang: "The timing, location, and harmony are all in my hands. Why should I play tricks and leave this battle to others? Even if I want the Tubo people to see my Tang army's majesty in this battle, How about persuading surrender. You have made great contributions in dedicating the city today, so you don’t have to worry about other things. Let’s just watch from the sidelines and see my Tang soldiers advance.”

After Li Ke finished speaking, he ordered Xi Junmai again: "Junmai, attack and break the door."

"No!" Xi Junmai promised in a loud voice, and led the troops forward.
