Niu Jinda's cavalry separated from the Tibetan cavalry.

Before the Tibetan cavalry could rush over, they ran towards the Tibetan cavalry who had just attacked the Chinese camp.

The number of Tang cavalry was smaller than that of Tubo cavalry, but the combat effectiveness of the two sides was completely different.

With just one blow, the Tang cavalry penetrated the hurriedly defending Tibetan cavalry.

The broken limbs of the Tubo cavalry were scattered randomly on the battlefield. ??

After receiving the order, the Tang army dispatched.

The spearmen were still in front, the Modao camp was in the middle, and the crossbowmen stood ready with arrows.

The Tubo cavalry was a little panicked, but just now the Tang Dynasty spearmen blocked their offensive, although they suffered heavy losses.

However, the Mo Dao Camp of the Tang Dynasty cut them in half, including men and horses, and their losses were much greater than those of the Tang Dynasty.

Coupled with the constant harassment from Tang’s cavalry...

Suddenly there was a sound of gold ringing from the top of the city.

The Tibetan cavalry turned their horses, leaving corpses on the ground.

call--

Zhao Chen heard the general beside him let out a gentle breath.

Looking up at the top of the city, he saw that there was no more Tang Dynasty soldier attacking on top of the city.

Although they barely blocked the Tibetan cavalry's intention to attack the Chinese army, the Songzhou City Tower was not captured after all.

The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty who climbed onto the city tower were surrounded and suppressed by the Tibetan soldiers. After all, they were unable to support themselves and fell on the city wall one after another.

The Tibetan cavalry's interference operation was finally completed.

Niu Jinda gritted his teeth as he looked at the corpses of Tang soldiers being thrown down one by one from the tower.

Ming Jin withdraws the troops! These words popped out of Niu Jinda's mouth, and Nan Ping turned his horse's head angrily and walked towards the camp.

Zhao Chen wanted to express his thoughts to Niu Jinda, but at this moment he was worried about the safety of Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu.

Then he turned around and went to look for the two of them.

The smell of blood filled the entire camp, and the painful wails of soldiers were everywhere.

The broken armor, the shapeless corpse, and the blood-stained face all tell the story of the brutality of this battle.

Qin Huaiyu found it and sat next to Cheng Chumo, asking for Cheng Chumo's help.

Chu Mo bandaged the knife wound on his hand.

This guy was lucky, he was only scratched by the Tubo soldier's knife.

I'll do it. Zhao Chen squatted aside and pulled off the strip of clothes to bandage Cheng Chumo's wound.

Zhao Da, you didn't see me today. I chopped those two Tubo beasts into four pieces with one strike.

Cheng Chumo was talking about the Tubo cavalry. A man and a horse together are two beasts!

The cavalry is still comfortable at this time. At least we won't be at a loss if we fight against the Tubo cavalry. Qin Huaiyu didn't even wipe the blood off his face, and the blood could be clearly seen in his teeth.

It was probably the Tibetan soldier's blood that splashed into his mouth.

Alas, this is not the answer after all. After two attacks on the city, our side alone lost nearly 3,000 people, and we were defeated again and again.

Many soldiers have given up hope! Cheng Chu sighed silently.

The failure of two consecutive sieges was a huge blow to them.

Even this time, even Niu Jinda's army was attacked.

If the soldiers had not fought tooth and nail to protect Niu Jinda, it is estimated that Niu Jinda would have been captured by the Tibetan cavalry.

The disparity in strength between the enemy and ours is too great, and we face many constraints. After all... Qin Huaiyu also shook his head.

Niu Jinda could not give up.

Once they gave up the siege, they were completely trapped and died here.

Or, all those hundreds of thousands of people would starve to death.

Or, all 50,000 soldiers of the Tang Dynasty would starve to death!

This couldn't be more obvious.

Give it a try, maybe you still have a chance.

Zhao Da, you may not be able to go back this time. Qin San, you will send Zhao Da back tomorrow. We can no longer stay here! Cheng Chumo said with a smile.

It seemed that he was just talking about an ordinary thing, and he seemed to be simply saying goodbye to an old friend.

Fart, why should I give it away? You are not injured.

Already? It just so happens that I can send Zhao Da back by the way. My old man will be left to you two. You have to take care of him until the end of his life for me. Qin Huaiyu cursed.

Why do I have to let you two do everything? I am also a well-known figure in Chang'an City.

I, Qin Huaiyu, hate others who look down on me the most. You two bastards, hurry up and go back to Chang'an City tomorrow!

After cursing, Qin Huaiyu turned away, his voice choked with sobs.

Who would think of dying if there was a way to survive?

But according to the current situation, staying here is no different from death.

After all, Zhao Chen just came here for a formality. His stage was in Chang'an City.

The emperor needed him, and the people of Tang Dynasty also needed him.

With him here, he might be able to kill Tubo and avenge them soon. ??

Anyone in the rescue army can die, but not Zhao Chen!

This was the advice of their respective old men before leaving, and it was also what they were thinking at the moment.

Tears fell from his eyes unconsciously, and Qin Huaiyu did not dare to cry for fear of being laughed at by the two people behind him.

Cheng Chumo opened his mouth, and tried to comfort him several times, but he was so stupid that he didn't know what to say.

Qin San, I can't go back to Chang'an in despair like you said. If we want to go back, we have to go back with the momentum of a great victory. We can't go back in glory! Zhao Chen patted Qin Huaiyu's shoulder and whispered softly. said.

What? Qin Huaiyu looked at Zhao Chen blankly.

Your Majesty, the night is already deep, why don't you rest?

In Zhongshu Province, Li Shimin was sitting on the couch.

He had been waiting here for a day for news. It was already past midnight and he should have gone to rest long ago.

In front of him was Fang Xuanling, who looked exhausted.

They were all waiting for the military report from Songzhou.

The news that Songzhou City had been lost sent the entire court into a panic.

Li Shimin announced at the court that Han Wei, the governor of Songzhou, would be executed on the spot.

This is since Li Shimin ascended the throne

, the only third-grade official killed.

The governor, who is equivalent to the minister of various ministries, kills at will without even thinking about it.

This is the first time.

This shows how angry the emperor was.

Above the court, except for a few officials who interceded for Han Wei, the rest were silent.

Everyone knew that once Songzhou City was lost, the dignity of the Tang Dynasty would be completely trampled under the feet of Tubo.

Following closely behind were the three armies of Hou Junji, Liu Lan, and Niu Jinda.

Fifty thousand against Tibet's 200,000. If it was just a rescue effort, there would be no problem.

But can they ignore the hundreds of thousands of Songzhou City people who escaped?

Since we want to control it, we can't just sit back and wait for death. Naturally, this city must be attacked.

With 50,000 troops attacking a city guarded by 200,000 troops, how could it be possible to win?

I am very upset. The Queen is always talking about Zhao Chen's safety. I will not return today!

Let's go sit in the tavern later. Li Shimin waved his hand, indicating that Fang Xuanling didn't need to worry about him.

Queen Changsun knew that something had happened in Songzhou City and complained about the emperor's decision to throw Zhao Chen to Songzhou.

If Zhao Chen was just an ordinary person, he probably wouldn't have to go through this.

Now it can be said that life and death are unknown, and misfortune and fortune are unpredictable.

Queen Changsun didn't know how anxious she was. After all, she was a woman, and no matter how virtuous she was, she couldn't help but worry about her children.

The emperor was tired of hearing this and felt wronged, so naturally he did not want to return to the palace.

Your Majesty, it's better to relax. With Zhao Xianhou's ability, he must be able to come up with a way to break the situation. Maybe everything will be solved by then! Fang Xuanling comforted Li Shimin with a smile.

In fact, Fang Xuanling herself didn't think Zhao Chen could do anything.

If you have not been immersed in military matters for more than ten years, you will ultimately be an amateur.

Zhao Chen is capable, but how can he get involved in the army?

Li Shimin glanced at Fang Xuanling and knew that he was comforting him. Thinking about the war on the front line, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
