    A surprise attack on Fuqi City and a battle to overturn the Tubo people's jurisdiction over the city started at dawn and ended half an hour later.  The whole process was not only incredibly fast, but also so smooth that Ge Shuhan, who was preparing for a bloody battle to the end, found it incredible.  At this time, Ge Shuhan stood at the south gate of Fuqi City, thinking carefully about the words Zhou Chengye said to him alone before leaving.  "Kilixu would never have thought that we would dare to attack Fuqi City with 700 cavalry, and he would never have thought that we have a powerful weapon that can blow up the city gate in an instant. So this battle seems crazy and like suicide, but  As long as you command properly and make full use of all means, victory can be expected!" "The fifty guards I temporarily assigned to you may not be outstanding in their ability to fight on the frontal battlefield, but that's not how they are used!  . Many of these team members have some special skills and are best suited for infiltration, sabotage, assassination and instigating rebellion. If they can play their role, it will not only greatly reduce the casualties of the cavalry battalion, but also improve the certainty of completing the mission. "  "Once Fuqi City is captured, we must control the city in the shortest possible time, and then mobilize all active forces in the city to be prepared to fight against the Tibetan army's revenge and counterattack! Before our reinforcements arrive, I need  No matter what method you adopt, you must hold on to Fuqi City for about ten days!¡± Looking back on Zhou Chengye¡¯s explanation, Ge Shuhan felt that the entire battle process was almost entirely based on the young general¡¯s predictions.  Over the battlefield.  Why are you so proficient in marching and fighting? Is it true that there is a genius in this world?  While Ge Shuhan was deep in thought.  Someone came to his side and whispered: "Brother, Commander, the preliminary statistics have been compiled. In this battle, forty-three of our soldiers were killed, 97 were seriously injured, and 170 were slightly injured. A total of  We have beheaded more than 1,900 enemies, captured more than 520 enemy prisoners, and captured more than 7,000 ordinary residents of the city. It is too late to count the number of various military supplies and war horses, but the number is very huge!  He nodded and said: "Thank you for your hard work, Chang Sima. Our casualties in this battle were 60% lower than expected. It can be said to be a great victory! According to the original task assignment of the general, next I will be mainly responsible for the defense of Fuqi City, and  Tasks such as comforting the residents of the city, treating the wounded, and providing logistical support to the troops all depend on Chang Sima! "The one Ge Shuhan called "Chang Sima" was the down-and-out Tang Dynasty man who entered Fuqi City among the guards.  Jinshi Chang Jian!  This time, he took the initiative to ask Zhou Chengye to follow Ge Shuhan's army into Fuqi City, which proved that this man was also a courageous and fierce man.  Chang Jian smiled faintly, and then said: "Commander, just rest assured and promise not to delay anything! I will go to the city to screen available people, and it will be your job to defend the city!" After Chang Jian finished speaking.  Then he strode towards the city, not looking like a formal scholar at all.  Ge Shuhan looked at Chang Jian's retreating figure, shook his head and said to Konwei Zuocha with a smile: "This Chang Jian is really a courageous and resourceful man. In such a short time, he has roughly summarized the situation in the city.  I figured it out. "Zuo Che is a vulgar martial artist.  He didn't care about this, he just said cheerfully: "Master, we are going to make a fortune this time! Not only did we capture Fuqi City, but we also captured Kilisu alive and killed so many Tibetan soldiers. You  Will General Zhou default on his debt?" Brother Shu Han stretched out a big hand stained with the blood of countless people, rubbed Zuo Che's face several times, and then said jokingly: "  You don¡¯t know how rich our second general is, don¡¯t worry, everyone¡¯s pension and reward will not be less than a penny this time!¡± At this time, the sky was already bright, and the chaos in the city was completely controlled.  , as for those places where explosions and fires occurred, they have become ruins.  The guards targeted the places where the Tibetan soldiers lived. Ordinary residential areas were not affected much. After the Tibetan soldiers fled, no one put out the fire in these places, leaving only ruins and corpses burned to black charcoal.  Apart from that, there is nothing else.  Because Fuqi City is located on a peninsula extending out into the lake to the west of Qinghai Lake, only the north gate and the south gate were built. This was beneficial to the defense of the Tang army, which was tight in strength.  The north gate, which had been blown down by gunfire, had now been completely blocked by hundreds of laborers in prison uniforms, carrying them on their shoulders and hands.  In order to ensure the stability of the once-collapsed North Gate area, Chang Jian selected hundreds of former Tuyuhun people from among the residents of the city, and asked them to dismantle some of the original barracks of Tibetan soldiers in the city, and move all the wood and stone to the north.  On top of the gate, a small urn was temporarily enclosed along the north gate.  The four people in the general¡¯s mansion in the cityMore than a hundred Kilixu's guards once tried to break out from the front and back doors at the same time, but were shot mercilessly by the Tang army guarding outside the compound.  At this time, although the Tang army was small in number, their morale was high. In addition, they had already had sufficient rest outside the courtyard, and had also built defensive bunkers and Jumalu Village facing the front and rear gates. Therefore, they were facing a breakout.  When the Tibetan soldiers were fighting, they didn't feel any pressure at all. They just wished that more people would rush out from the yard to die.  The courtyard gate is only that wide, and the back gate is even narrower. The Tubo guards can only rush out a limited number of people at a time. They have left the high-speed horseback, and now they are unable to form a coordinated battle formation. They are hiding in bunkers in the face of  When the "cunning and shameless" Tang Army crossbowmen behind them, they had no other way out but to be a living target.  Kilisu, who had just been knocked unconscious, had just woken up. He was tied to a door panel and placed behind the bunker.  Kilixu's heart was as sharp as a knife as he watched helplessly as his guard rushed out risking his life, and then was shot mercilessly in the death zone of thirty cloths outside the gate.  At this time, Kilixu had already seen clearly the origin of the soldiers who suddenly rushed into Fuqi City. He shouted loudly and wanted to meet the general of the Tang Army, but no one paid him any attention.  "Let your lord see me! Let that old man Cui Xiyi come to see me! Let that old man Wang Junkuo come to me! You are so bold, do you know what the consequences will be? I have 800,000 soldiers in Tubo. From now on  We will definitely fight to the death with the Tang Dynasty!" While Kilixu was shouting hoarsely, Geshuhan sent someone to tell Kilixu that if he could not stop his close guards, then the Tang army would be defeated at night.  A grand bonfire party is going to be held in the city, and a fire will turn the general's mansion and hundreds of guards in the mansion to ashes!  Kilixu shut his mouth. He believed that this lunatic named Geshuhan would be able to do it if he dared to say it.  After a painful struggle, Kilixu said in authentic Chinese to the Tang soldiers who were guarding him: "Carry me outside the gate of the mansion and let me shout to my guards." Several Tang soldiers were also bold  He was not afraid of being shot by the Tibetan soldiers in the courtyard, so he actually lifted the door panel and sent Kilisu to the death zone where many corpses were lying.  Kilixu looked pale and shouted to the courtyard: "Brothers, Fuqi City has fallen and we are captured. Please stop resisting in vain. I now order everyone to put down their weapons and surrender, and all walk out of the courtyard.  , accept the custody of the Tang army!¡± After a while, the Tubo soldiers finally walked out slowly from the Jiedushi General¡¯s house. They no longer had weapons or bows and arrows on their bodies. It seemed that they had obeyed Kilixu¡¯s orders.  .  Afterwards, the Tang army who was guarding outside the mansion found a lot of long ropes from the city, tied the surrendered Tibetan soldiers ten to eight on a long rope, and put them all into the cells where the Tuyuhun people were originally held.  After eliminating Kilixu¡¯s guards, the biggest factor of instability in the city was eliminated, so Geshuhan immediately sent soldiers to search the entire city for any unidentified fish hidden in the homes of residents in the city.  Chang Jian was not idle either. He asked the freed Tuyuhun people to publicize the Tang army's policies throughout the city, and called on the Tuyuhun people who had defected to the Tubo people to come forward and assist the Tang army in governing Fuqi City and defending Fuqi City.  The Tuyuhun people, who had been controlled and enslaved by the Tubo people for many years, actually did not recognize the rule of the Tubo Kingdom deep down. Now someone stood up to stand up for them. The bolder ones quickly walked out of their homes and consciously joined the Tuyuhun people.  Among the ranks of royal descendants.  Gradually, 30% of the residents in the city turned to the side of the Tang army.  With the addition of 30% of the Tuyuhun people, Chang Jian's pressure dropped sharply. He immediately designated some noble Tuyuhun people as leaders and divided nearly two thousand Tuyuhun people into ten groups, and then assigned tasks to these groups in turn.  Some of these Tuyuhun people took on the task of feeding horses and cooking, some assisted Tang soldiers in guarding Tibetan prisoners, some took care of injured Tang soldiers, and others took turns going to the city to assist Tang soldiers in defending the city.  Chang Jian¡¯s approach was very vicious. It was equivalent to tying these Tuyuhun people to the tanks of the Tang army, leaving them with no way out.  At noon, Ge Shuhan ordered that ordinary Tibetan people in the city could evacuate in batches from the south gate with their property, and the Tang army promised not to shoot them.  The Tubo people in the city had long been frightened. They hurriedly rushed towards the south gate before the Tang army changed their minds. After escaping, no one dared to stay longer, and hurried towards the southwest of the Tubo Kingdom.  Fleeing everywhere.  "The Tang army did not massacre the city, and it was already open to the outside world. If everyone does not cherish this rare opportunity to survive and escape, there is no telling what terrible things will happen if they stay."?Things.  After most of the ordinary Tubo people in the city had fled, the south gate of Fuqi City suddenly fell down, and the inside of the gate was covered with stones and bricks, completely cutting off the access to the outside for a while.
