Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

Page 760

The Tubo people not only scattered swords, guns, swords, bows, crossbows, shields and stones all over the place, but also left corpses scattered all over the place. They could no longer stand up and stayed on this land forever.

Obviously, the siege of Dochiluo's army failed again and ended temporarily in defeat.

Above the east gate tower, both the Qingmiao Army and the Xichuan Army seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, squatting under the corner of the wall and wolfing down their dinner.

Pang Feihu and Kang Bao, who were in charge of the east gate, were also the same, squatting on the ground and grabbing the rice in the bowl, extremely hungry.

Looking at the posture of the two of them, they were in a state of embarrassment, and they would never regain their previous dignity.

Kang Bao's face was covered with stains from dried sweat. He chewed the rice in his mouth and asked Pang Feihu beside him, "Old Pang, is this the first time we have repelled the siege of Dochiluo's army?"

Pang Feihu stopped the chopsticks in his hand, swallowed the food in his mouth hastily, hiccupped, and muttered: "Let me think about it, uh... yesterday I fought back three times, today I fought back four times, it should be Is it the seventh time? Yes, it is the seventh time!"

"Seventh time?"

Kang Bao also put the bowls and chopsticks in his hand on the ground, and said with some surprise: "Grandma, I didn't expect that we would be able to stand up for two days and besieged seven times by the enemy. Hehe, we are quite capable, right? ?”

Pang Feihu continued to pick a few mouthfuls of rice, and hummed lightly.

Kang Bao said in a relaxed tone: "To me, a [-]-strong army is not too bad. After attacking the east gate for two days, the [-] soldiers and horses have nothing to do with us. Their dry food is also exhausted." It’s all over, I guess the slaughter of livestock and horses has started today? As long as we persist for another three or two days, hey, if these grandsons don’t retreat, they will starve to death outside Golmud City.”

"Hiccup!"

Pang Feihu burped, obviously full.

But after he put down the bowl and chopsticks, he shook his head and said with a wry smile, "Kang Bao, you think so beautifully. Do you know how many people we lost in the past two days? Although the Xichuan army did not suffer much casualties, the Qingmiao army A full 5000 people have been lost, and the price is too great, too great."

"What's the matter?"

Kang Bao didn't seem to be surprised by the loss of the Young Miao Army, on the contrary, he didn't care about it, and said with a light smile, "The Young Miao Army at the east gate is finished, and we still have the Young Miao Army at the South Gate, North Gate, and West Gate. Send another group of people at will Wouldn’t it be over if you came over? The Qingmiao army is not stupid, and they are not defending the city with their lives at this time. Hmph, how will their families be better off when the Dochiluo army enters the city? Besides, Dochiluo The army suffered a lot of casualties in the past two days, at least four or five thousand corpses were dropped in the seven charges, right?"

"It's true that Duo Chiluo's army kills one thousand and loses eight hundred. But the opponent has fifty thousand troops, so what's the problem if they lose four or five thousand?"

Pang Feihu asked back, and said, "Yes, you said that the Qingmiao Army must defend the city for us. This is true. It is no problem to send other Qingmiao armies to help defend. But Kang Bao, you know that we are now facing What is the biggest problem? Have you ever inspected the east gate?"

Kang Bao shook his head and said, "I've been supervising the battle since morning, how can I have time to go on patrol? What do you think is the biggest problem we are facing now?"

"Boulders, logs!"

Pang Feihu said: "Two days of defensive counterattacks have consumed all the boulders and logs that can be raised in the city. Without these two things, what else do we have to defend the city?"

"Don't you still have arrows? As long as there are enough arrows, if the Dochiluo army rushes, we will shoot and kill them. Hmph, they still have to..."

"Hey, the feather cluster arrows are almost used up!"

Pang Feihu expressed the most worrying thing in his heart, and sighed: "Before the meal, I asked Ruan Laosan to count the bows and crossbows on the tower, and they were almost exhausted. You say, there are no huge stones and logs, and there will be no more arrows." Bows, crossbows and arrows, how can we defend the city?"

"What did you say???"

Now, Kang Bao was not calm at all, and exclaimed: "What do you mean, as long as the Duochiluo army rushes again, the east gate will be broken?"

Pang Feihu said firmly: "We have nothing to rely on. What else can we do except watch the Tubo army rushing towards the east gate at the top of the city? I'm sure that as long as the Duochiluo army finishes their dinner and takes a rest Go ahead, hehe, the east gate of Golmud is 100% breached."

"Oh shit!!!"

Kang Bao spat and spit on the ground, stood up and stomped hard, and said, "Then what should we do? As long as they break through the east gate and enter the city, the crisis of food and grass can be solved. At that time, let this The herd of animals has enough food and grass, and we can only be slaughtered."

Pang Feihu smiled sadly, and said dejectedly: "That's exactly the case. Alas, in Golmud City, there is no other weapon to help us defend the city except food and grass."

"Master Zhenfu Envoy has arrived!"

I don't know who yelled in the city, and the two men with frowning faces suddenly turned their heads to look at the corner of the stairs, and saw Guo Ye slowly walking towards them with the support of two sergeants.

And Tong Hu, carrying a big chair, followed closely behind Guo Ye.

When Guo Ye stood in front of the two, Tong Hu had already put down the big chair and landed behind Guo Ye, and said softly: "My lord, you are not in good health, sit down!"

Guo Ye sat down slowly, looked at Pang Feihu and Kang Bao, and said nothing.

The two were shocked for a while, and they asked together: "My lord, you haven't recovered yet, why did you come to the tower again?"

Guo Ye shook his head with a wry smile, and said, "The situation is so severe now, why should I not come? If Tong Hu hadn't come to tell me that the city had run out of boulders, logs, and arrows, I wouldn't have done so." Come to this tower in a hurry."

shuh~

Pang Feihu and Kang Bao projected sharp eyes on Tong Hu, so it turned out that this kid was talking and telling the secret?Doesn't he know that adults are in urgent need of rest and recuperation to recover their bodies?What a mess!

Tong Hu glanced at the two of them, knowing that they had misunderstood him, he hurriedly explained: "You two, only Mr. Guo can solve this critical situation. Tong Hu is also thinking about the overall situation."

"what?"

Kang Bao hurriedly asked: "My lord, do you have any other methods to defend the city?"

Pang Feihu also looked at Guo Ye expectantly, feeling ashamed for not reporting the situation at the East Gate.

Guo Ye laughed and said, "A way to defend the city? I really don't have one!"

Ugh……

When the two heard this, they sighed again.

"But..."

Guo Ye changed the subject, and said again: "There is no way to defend the city, but it doesn't mean there is no way to retreat from the enemy!"

hold head high?

The two were obviously confused by Guo Ye. In the current situation, wouldn't defending the city mean retreating from the enemy?Could it be that the body of the adult has not recovered, and even the mind is dizzy?

Guo Ye seemed to have guessed what the two of them were thinking, and spat: "Don't think about it, since I can drag my broken body to sit at the east gate, it is natural to solve the urgent needs of the two of you at this time. Don't worry, I just The body has not recovered from the collapse, but the brain is still working, not confused."

"hey-hey……"

Hearing what Guo Ye said so bluntly, Kang Bao could only respond with an embarrassed and foolish smile.

But Pang Feihu was more thoughtful, bowed his hands and asked: "My lord, forgive Pang Feihu for being stupid, I don't know what method my lord has to defeat the enemy?"

Guo Ye asked, "Want to hear it?"

shuh~

This time, even Kang Bao cupped his hands together, and hurriedly said: "Please tell me, my lord, I'd like to hear more about it!"

Chapter 598

Guo Ye withdrew his taunting and joking expression, and said in a serious tone: "The way to retreat from the enemy is very simple, but also very risky."

Pang Feihu and Kang Bao didn't intervene when they heard the words, and continued to keep silent as a listening gesture.
