Tulubaihu's eyes were dull and his expression was stiff, as if he didn't know how to answer the words of the fifth generation next.

Although this guy's words are unpleasant, they are also extremely correct. If you want to fight for yourself now, the final outcome will be the destruction of the city and the sacrifices of these subordinates will be truly worthless.

Thinking of this, Tulubaihu couldn't help but sigh again.

So, now, should I agree with the rebels' persuasion to surrender to the rebels in Lhasa?

No, you must not surrender to the rebels!

If he offered his city and surrendered, even if the rebels were willing to save his life, what is the point of becoming the commander of the bare hands even if he survived in the world!

Since ancient times, there are only Khans who died for the country, how could anyone surrender to save their lives?

Thinking of this, Tulubaihu's face showed a ferocious look. He shouted at the fifth Dalai Lama under the city: "Don't talk nonsense! I am the Khan of Wusizang, and I have the responsibility to defend the territory. If you have the ability, come straight to attack the city!"

"Okay! If you have a way in heaven, you don't go, and if you have no way in hell, you will come! Since you are seeking death, King Gamu will definitely help you! Then you will go to the eighteen levels of hell, but don't regret it!"

Seeing that Tulubaihu was so stubborn, the fifth Dalai Lama smiled coldly and a ferocious look flashed on his face. He didn't say much, and immediately pulled his horse back to the formation with a group of cavalry. At the same time, Tulubaihu also snorted coldly and hurriedly left the city. He immediately arranged the soldiers and horses in the city, as well as the young and strong men who were urgently recruited from the city to come to defend the city.

The fifth Dalai Lama reported to Gamu, and Gamu was also very angry: "Damn it, Tulubaihu, since he didn't know how to raise his face, he would definitely seek death if he wanted to do anything, then I'll help him!"

"King, it's getting late now, and the soldiers are coming to attack from afar, all of whom are tired. It would be better to wait a few days later to attack." The fifth generation interrupted urgently.

"Hmph! Tulubaihu just got a bloody battle and was exhausted. How could our army not launch an attack as soon as possible? If this guy recovers his energy, then..."

"King, Tulubaihu cannot recover its vitality." Seeing Gamu's eagerness, the fifth generation hurriedly advised: "Our army is coming from afar, and the soldiers are also tired. If we don't rest for several days, we are afraid that if we are not going well, we will be defeated by this guy. What's more, although the hanging plate at the north gate is broken, if the inner gate is heavily guarded by the defenders, our army will not have suitable siege equipment, and it is afraid that it will be difficult for a while. And Tulubaihu was completely burned by the original defenders because of his careless actions. It is estimated that if the next time is filled with the belly of the soldiers, it will be a huge problem."

The fifth generation paused for a moment and said again: "If the king is not in a hurry, and relax for a while, and the soldiers are well prepared for rest and the siege equipment has been built, wouldn't it be more likely to win when they attack Lhasa City, which is small and weak in food and grass? By then, the defenders in the city will inevitably become more hungry and their morale will be even lower. If they lose, I will not be the opponent of our army. In this way, isn't this Lhasa City destined to be the king's possession?"

After hearing the fifth generation's persuasion, Gamu nodded repeatedly and ordered: "The Dalai Lama is right. In your opinion, the entire army will temporarily siege the city and rest, vigorously build siege equipment. After the equipment is built, the entire army will work together to attack the city. It is necessary to kill the dog head of Tulubaihu!"

"Get orders!"

The Tulubaihu soldiers guarding the city were relieved when they saw that the enemy was just besieging the city without attacking.

However, the main general Tulubaihu, Gu Shihan, who was only the lonely city of Lhasa, felt a little relaxed, but was filled with inexplicable sadness.

Because he soon understood the enemy's intentions.

These damn bastards, they were just making all preparations to build complete siege equipment and start attacking.

Moreover, they must have thought of one thing, that is, the food and fodder in the city are destroyed now, and if they wait a little longer, the defenders in the city will be hungry and their combat power will become increasingly low. If the enemy takes the opportunity to attack, they will have a greater chance of winning and less losses.

These bastards are so vicious!

However, now, what other ways can I think of besides gritting my teeth to deal with it?

So Tulubaihu sighed and ordered the entire defenders to collect food everywhere in the past few days, plunder the people's food, even if they starve all the residents in the city to death, they would do whatever they could.

He knew clearly that at such a critical moment, it was no longer time to talk about benevolence and righteousness.

If the troops under his command are hungry and unable to resist the enemy, then it is conceivable that the city of Lhasa will not have any chance to be preserved, and he will die under the swords and guns of the rebels. In such a situation, his destiny will only be thousands of times more miserable than the most pitiful residents in Lhasa.

In the following days, in addition to strictly sealing the escape routes of the defenders in the city, the rebels sent a large number of soldiers and craftsmen to build siege equipment such as chariots, siege ladders, and crashes.

The defenders in the city searched for food and grass everywhere and plundered houses. The people in the entire city of Lhasa cried and cried out loud. If they resisted, they would be slaughtered. This capital of Wusizang, Lhasa, is like a hell on earth.

However, what made Turubaihu very worried was that because of the poverty of Lhasa's real estate, and since the destruction of Nagqu City, the Tang army came to attack, the residents in the city had already fled, and most of the rich and rich families had escaped. Even though he tried hard to plunder money and food from the remaining poor people in the city, and even forced people to die, what he gained was not enough to fill the soldiers of the entire army. All the whole army was full of complaints.

When he was helpless, Tulubaihu had no choice but to order the soldiers of the entire army to kill horses and eat, so as not to mutiny within the inside before the enemy arrived.

However, there was another even more terrifying question that lies in his heart.

That is, there is insufficient food, even if the cavalry horses are eaten, it will not last long. If the rebels outside the city do not attack and the siege has not been lifted, how long can the lonely and trapped Lhasa last?

Fortunately, Turubaihu was so worried that he was broken by Gamu, who was eager to attack the city.

Ten days later, Gamu, who had built a large number of siege tools, was anxious and, despite the dissuasion of the Fifth Dalai Lama, immediately ordered the entire army to launch an attack on Lhasa City after dawn.

Soon, with the arrangement of the rebels on all sides, the rebels' siege officially began.

Of course, because Lhasa City was relatively well prepared, Gamu decided to focus the attack on the north gate where the suspension bridge was cut off.

For this period of time, Gamu has been sending people to guard against the hanging plates of the north gate being secretly repaired by the defenders in the city. Tulubaihu in the city has not been moved before taking advantage of the late night to hang people from the city and try to pull up the broken chains on the suspension bridge. However, the rebels outside the city are closely guarded, and the soldiers who go down are either shot and killed by the rebels or have to flee back in a panic.

Therefore, the state of this suspension bridge has been maintained until now. Because of this, this place has become a key defense for the defenders in the city and the rebels outside the city.

After dawn, when I heard the continuous sound of whimpering and horns outside the city, the city's chief general Tulubaihu felt a sense of inexplicable ease.

Damn, what should be come, it will come.

The enemy's indifference was so irresistible that the enemy had given him a reason to be liberated. Otherwise, even if he and his subordinates did not fight, they would all be starved to kill them.

Tulubaihu immediately ordered the entire army to prepare and defend strictly to deal with the enemy's attack.

At this time, the defenders at the North Gate could see that the enemy was pushing a large number of chariots in the front, with a huge collision between them, and behind them were dozens of siege ladders, posing as murderous siege, and coming to the north gate by themselves.

As the enemy approached the moat, Tulubaihu ordered the entire army to shoot arrows to block the enemy's offensive.

Unexpectedly, the enemy's car was covered with iron sheets and was extremely difficult to shoot through. The defenders watched helplessly. The arrows shot on the car's skin and jingled, but they could not effectively prevent the car from advancing.

When they arrived at the moat, the cars took the lead and pushed the suspension bridge on the moat first to cover the huge crash behind them.

Tulubaihu, who was closely watching the battle at the top of the city, was worried when he saw the enemy's actions. He shouted loudly at the dazed defenders: "Hurry up! Shoot rockets at the rebels' crash car and must burn this damn thing!"

When the defenders heard the order, they immediately shot the rockets and shot them at the crash.

For a moment, countless rockets in the sky were like blooming flames, dripping through beautiful arcs, as if attracted by a huge magnet, roaring towards the rebels' crash.

Seeing the rockets on the city wall shooting, everyone was pushing the car crash below, and the speed of the car was increasing. This heavy and huge car crash made a squeaking scream and pushed the city gate away.

What frustrated Tulubaihu and others on the top of the city was that the flying rockets were like they were shot on the car, and they were shot on the iron sheet covered outside the crash, which could not cause actual damage to them.

Soon, the car crashed over the suspension bridge and pushed it to the city gate at the entrance of the Moon Road, preparing for the impact.

"Arrow! Archery! Shoot the enemy soldiers who are pushing the carts to death!" Tulubaihu yelled sharply.

When the defenders heard the order, they rushed to the city, but because of the obstruction of the car, they could kill and injure very limited.

Originally, if it were in the Han area, such a siege that was purely cold weapons, there would be gray bottles and gold juice available in the defenders, but in Tibet, this technique was not common. What's more, the armory in Lhasa City had been burned, and Tulubaihu could not hang down from the city wall to smash the city hammers and other objects that were hit by the enemy.

At this moment, Tulubaihu was filled with anger, but it was unimaginable. He had to arrange more soldiers to fill behind the city gate, hoping to use the lives of these soldiers to compete with the enemy as much as possible.

Seeing that the troops in the square were successfully pushed under the city wall, the rebel leader Gamu was so excited that his eyes lit up, and immediately shouted loudly: "The whole army should do its best to attack. We must take down the north gate and open the passage into the city!"

Hearing the rumbling drums coming from behind, the enemy troops siege the city seemed to be injected with chicken blood. Everyone shouted like wild beasts, and the speed of advancement was accelerated. The crash finally entered the moon road of the city gate smoothly, opened the front cover, and the huge bluestone hit the head and pointed it coldly at the north gate of Lhasa.

The north gate was damaged after the last battle of Tulubaihu's capture of the city, and it has not been well repaired. The cracks on it are still clearly visible. Through the cracks, I saw that the huge crash was approaching, and the defenders guarding behind the gate were all frightened.

"preparation!"

"Collide!"

The rebel soldiers under the city gate gritted their teeth, used their strength to push the hammer and began to hit the city gate with all their might.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

...

The huge and dull collision sound was like rolling thunder, rushing to the ears of every soldier inside and outside the city gate. However, the reactions of the soldiers on both sides were completely different. The soldiers outside the city looked excited and excited, while the soldiers in the city looked panic and fearful.

"Hurry! Stones and debris are piled up at the city gate, and you must block the enemy's attack!" Tulubaihu at the top of the city roared again.

The defenders immediately became busy like headless flies. They searched around to carry stones and blocked the city gates urgently.

However, they underestimated the power of the hammer, and the piles of things that were pressed behind the door were pushed open before they could be released, which forced the defenders to rush back to the door.

After more than twenty hits, there was only a bang that exploded. The damaged city gate finally broke open completely. The huge city gate cracked into several pieces and flew away. Several guards behind the gate could not dodge and were instantly smashed to pieces by the door block. The screams immediately burst out loud.

As the city gate was broken, the side that was sieging the city was full of morale. The enemy soldiers who were pushing the cart immediately abandoned the collision and retreated from the moon road.

The elite rebel infantry who had been following behind were already ready to move. Seeing the city gate open, they were all happy to show their feelings. They waved their swords and guns, shouted and rushed towards the city gate.

Seeing the enemy crashing into a car and breaking through the city gate, the enemy attacked in large numbers. The defenders inside the gate had to bite the bullet and rush forward and fight with them.

For a moment, the killing sounds of both sides shook the sky, and the swords and the battle was very fierce.

Seeing that the city gate was successful, the attention of the defenders in the city was attracted to the city gate. The rebel leader Gamu took it seriously and immediately ordered that the siege ladders that had been staying behind would all be dispatched to attack the city walls from both sides of the city gate.

Hearing the order of the chief general, the rebels rushed forward and attacked with twenty siege ladders. The army was carried forward like ants, and quickly stepped forward.

"Click!"

The fifteen-meter-long siege ladder finally leaned against the city wall. The iron hook on it immediately hooked the siege on the city wall, which was hard to break off.

The morale of the rebels who were sieging the city was suddenly boosted. They let out wild beasts howls, and immediately began to climb along the ladder like ants rising up the tree.
Chapter completed!
