Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The Tang army did not continue to attack Yaze City, and this lasted for nearly three days.  ""()

    However, during these three days, the relationship between Getai and Bada Tusi was not good, and the relationship between the two parties has always been tense.  Because the eight chieftains discovered the people sent by Getai to guard them, they knew Getai's thoughts. This was a shame for the eight chieftains, because they were chieftains appointed by the King of Tubo, and they were only authorized by the King of Tubo.  Supervision, when will it be the turn of generals like Getai to monitor them, and Getai was not tolerated by the eight chieftains for this reason.  This made the eight chieftains also send people to keep an eye on Getai, which made the relationship between the two parties very bad.

    However, no matter how bad the relationship between the two parties is, it has not yet reached the point of incompatibility.

    Because Getai did not dare to touch the eight chieftains easily. This was because the eight chieftains were not under his jurisdiction. If the eight chieftains wanted to touch Getai, they had to consider whether they had the ability to do so. Just add the private soldiers of their eight families.  With less than 20,000 people together, how could they compete with Getai's army of more than 50,000?

    Therefore, for this reason, both parties are relatively restrained.

    Furthermore, there was the Tang army who ignored Dandan outside the city. They were not fools. They knew very well what it means to be a fisherman and a fisherman to gain a profit.

    However, this tense atmosphere was completely broken on the night of the third day.  Because, that night, the Tang army unexpectedly began to attack the city at night. They used all their infantry and cavalry.  Their intention is obvious, they want to storm Yaze City.

    News of the Tang army's attack on the city reached the General's Mansion. Getai, who was about to go to bed, immediately came to the tower of Yaze City and took a deep look outside the city. Getai's face was gloomy.  Because he found that the time when the Tang army attacked the city was very doubtful. Now was the time when the conflict between him and the eight chieftains was at its deepest. Under such circumstances, the Tang army began to attack the city. What did this mean?  In other words, Tang Jun was very aware of the conflict between him and the Eight Chieftains, and they wanted to take advantage of this loophole.

    Therefore, after seeing the Tang army gathering outside the city to attack the city, Getai decisively ordered the eight chieftains to be summoned to the city tower. He wanted to discuss countermeasures with the eight people. He wanted to tell the eight people in this way that only eight people could  Only by uniting with ourselves can we deal with the Tang army outside the city.

    At this time, the Tang army had already begun to attack the city, and Getai led the army to defend the city.

    Tonight, the Tang Army's offensive was fierce from the beginning. Their purpose was obvious, which was to capture Yaze City in one fell swoop.

    Therefore, all the catapults, crossbows and ladders of the Tang army were used on the battlefield.

    You can see densely packed catapults and crossbows, as well as huge and towering ladders.

    All this shocked the Tibetan defenders on the city.

    Because they are used to fighting in the field and have not experienced too many siege battles, let alone defenders.  Therefore, when they saw such a large siege formation, they were also very panicked. In addition, the Tang army's previous siege left a shadow on their hearts, and now they felt very heavy.

    "Dong dong"

    Thinking about the sound of Liutong drum, the Tang army, led by Pei Xingjian, began to attack the city.

    This time, all the siege infantry were personally commanded and directed by Chen Qi's deputy general Pei Xingjian. This shows how serious Chen Qi was in his decision to capture Yaze City tonight.

    ¡°Kill¡ª¡ª¡± Under the command of Pei Xingjian, 20,000 infantry and 10,000 cavalry were charging towards Yaze City.

    It is impossible for cavalry to attack a city.

    However, the elite cavalry trained by Chen Qi of the Black Cavalry Army was a general who had participated in the war against the Turks and was very knowledgeable about the Turks' cavalry and archery.  Therefore, the main purpose of sending these 10,000 cavalry was to use the speed of the cavalry to shoot arrows at the city when approaching Yaze City.  This can better suppress the Tibetan defenders on the city and buy more time for the siege infantry.

    "ah¡ª¡ª"

    "Ouch¡ª¡ª"

    When the Tang army's offensive began, the Tibetan defenders on Yaze City suffered heavy casualties.

    Because this time the Tang army concentrated all the catapults and crossbows, as well as the bows and arrows of the roaming cavalry. This series of rapid shooting made the Tubo defenders unable to adapt.

    However, when Getai on Yaze City saw the Tang army's crazy attack on the city, he had already considered whether to return to Pibo City.  This was his plan, but it failed because of the relationship between the eight chieftains.  Now, it was not surprising that when he saw the Tang army's offensive, he immediately thought of this question.

    However, the issue that worries him is still the Eight Chieftains, because his soldiers have left for a long time now. With the speed of his soldiers, it is time for the Eight Chieftains to return to the tower!

    ???????????????? But how come the Eight Chief Toasts still behave so casually at this time?

      Suddenly, Ge Tai had a bad premonition in his heart!

    ?¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­

    In Yaze City, the eight chieftains were no longer in their mansions. When the Tang army began to attack the city, and when Getai had no time to pay attention to them, they had already led their own soldiers to the west gate of Yaze City with murderous intent.  The four gates of Yaze City are guarded by Getai's army, but the west gate is still in the hands of the eight chieftains.  Because the west gate was not within the attack range of Chen Qi's army, Getai did not just take over the city gate from the eight chieftains.  Therefore, when the eight people led nearly 10,000 soldiers to the west gate, the guards of the west gate immediately came out to salute the eight people.

    "How is the situation outside the city?" one of the older chieftains asked.

    "Go back to the chieftain, the situation outside the city is normal and no enemies have been found!" the guard replied seriously.

    "Isn't there anything suspicious?" the chieftain continued to ask.

    "No, Lord Chieftain!" the guard said.

    This chieftain glanced at the other seven chieftains, and the eight of them looked at each other, as if they were discussing something.

    After a while, the chieftain who just spoke continued, "Go and order them to open the city gate! - Quick!"

    "It's the chieftain!" The guard was stunned for a moment, but he still didn't ask why, because he was the chieftain's private soldier general, and in his eyes, the chieftain's orders were more important than the orders of the Tubo king.

    I saw him quickly running up the hill to the tower and starting to give orders to the defenders.  The defender was also stunned, but when he saw his general looking at him with a livid face, the defender did not dare to ask why and could only obey the order.

    After the order was given, a "squeak" sound was heard, and the west gate of Yaze City slowly opened.

    When the west gate slowly opened, a chieftain took out a torch and waved it several times at the city gate.

    Suddenly, the sound of horse hooves was heard.

    The sound of horse hooves was getting closer and closer, and in an instant, a fine cavalry of the Tang Army appeared at the west gate. They rushed into the west gate of Yaze City at a whirlwind speed.

    The Tibetan defenders were panicked because they did not expect the Tang army to appear at the west gate.

    "Which one of you is the chieftain of Yaze City?" Before the Tibetan defenders could make any move, the Tang Army general took the initiative to ask. Looking carefully in the light of the torch at night, this Tang Army general turned out to be Chen Qi.

    "Reporting to General Chen Qi, we are the chieftains of Yaze City!" One of the chieftains stepped forward and replied.

    "Well, are they the eight of you? This is the pardon letter given to you by this general. Please read it carefully!" Chen Qi handed a piece of paper to the chieftain, "When you finish reading it, your task is to follow this king.  Fight to the east gate, persuade the Tibetan defenders to surrender, and let them take the initiative to open the east gate."

    The Eighth Chieftain carefully checked Chen Qi's pardon letter.

    "General - where is Getai?"

    "When they finished reading the pardon letter handed to them by Chen Qi, and saw the pardon letter written in Tubo questions and Chinese, and the bright red seal on Chen Qi's side, they felt a lot more relaxed.

    "Getai, leave him to my general!" Chen Qi said coldly, "You just need to cooperate with Pei Xingjian to protect Yaze City."

    "Yes¡ª¡ª" The eight chieftains took the order.

    Now, they have surrendered to the Tang army and they have become Chen Qi's subordinates.  For their own future, and in order to get more of what they want from Chen Qi in the future, they can only accept orders respectfully.

    "kill¡ª¡ª"

    When Chen Qi gave the order, he saw that of the 20,000 black cavalry troops, 5,000 were left to guard the west gate, and the remaining 15,000 were heading towards the east gate.

    Because there were eight chieftains and their soldiers acting as internal agents, Chen Qi's fifteen thousand elite cavalry reached the east gate without any resistance.
