In the ninth year of Taiping, September 25th.

The brutal siege temporarily came to an end as night fell. The unhurried beating of drums continued to sound, and the Tibetan army began to retreat like a tide.

"General, Tubo has retreated."

The Tibetan army retreated, and some soldiers shouted loudly.

"Instruct the whole army to keep their posts and not to leave their posts without permission. Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed."

Shan Qiu shouted hurriedly at the soldiers on the side.

"Yes, General."

Although the soldiers were puzzled, they did not dare to ask any more questions. They ran around the city and loudly conveyed Shanqiu's orders.

After a day of fierce fighting, everyone was extremely exhausted. When they saw the Tibetan army retreating, they originally wanted to rest, but now they heard the order of the city guard general, and suddenly started to cry out. However, the military order could not be violated, and the city guard soldiers had to stand where they were.

, brace yourself, hold your weapon, and continue to defend.

At this time, the unhurried drumming suddenly turned into an intense drumbeat, one after another, continuously. The Tibetan army, which had been retreating just now, turned their guns, and the shouts of killing resounded across the sky again.

He rushed towards the city with every step.

"Defend the enemy!"

Shanqiu roared loudly, reminding all the soldiers to be ready to defend the city.

The Tubo attack lasted for another half an hour, and more than 2,000 people were killed and wounded again. The siege general saw that the Jin army had seen through his trick, and the defenders had not relaxed at all, and they were invulnerable, so they had no choice but to angrily issue a retreat order. This time, however,

It was true that the troops were withdrawn.

At the same time as the Tubo troops withdrew, the gate of Xiaogu County suddenly opened. Yuan He led three thousand cavalry and rushed out, catching up with the retreating Tibetan army. They rushed and killed them. Unprepared, the Tubo army retreated and immediately turned into a rout.

Two thousand people were killed.

Yuan He was not greedy for merit. After charging for a while, he led the army back without giving the opponent a chance to surround him.

After doing this again and again, the Tibetan general was so angry that he almost vomited blood and became furious.

The Tubo camp, the commander's tent.

At the end of the day's siege, Gewa summoned the generals to discuss matters.

General Li Xun of the Jin Dynasty led 30,000 troops to win consecutive battles. Using unexpected methods, he finally repelled the Tubo army that besieged Shanzhou, rescued the 20,000 Jin troops who were besieged, and defeated the powerful enemies several times.

The Bai cavalry even killed De'an, the capital of Qiu Bai, and 40,000 Jin troops, together with hundreds of thousands of civilians, safely returned to Xiaogu County.

The Jin Dynasty's victory was relatively brilliant, killing 40,000 to 50,000 Tibetan soldiers, but this did not fundamentally shake Tibet's morale and confidence, and Tibet's main military force did not suffer much damage.

After taking control of the entire four states of Longyou North Road, Ge Wa began to consider the next military action. At this time, news came that Li Zhong was leading an army of 60,000 on his way to Huizhou. After receiving the news, Ge Wa at that time

Wa didn't think about Xiaogu County at all, but made two preparations. On the one hand, he used the four states of Longyou North Road as bargaining chips to negotiate with the Jin Dynasty in exchange for the land of the seven states in the west of Longyou. This way, he could get the fastest price

Speed, the minimum cost, and the maximum benefit. If the Jin Dynasty refuses, then a second move will be made to assemble the main army and attack Anbei.

At that time, Gewa had no intention of attacking the western part of Longyou. After all, the Liao Dynasty promised the Jin Dynasty not to send troops to Anbei, and also promised the Tubo Dynasty not to help the Jin Dynasty. Neither of them would help. The Liao Dynasty

Remain neutral, but these are only verbal agreements and do not have any binding force.

Until the arrival of the envoy of the Liao Dynasty Emperor Huhe Bari, the Liao Dynasty's political advisor and the right minister of the Ministry of Rites Wang Huaili, Huhe Bari's attitude was brought. Although the Liao Dynasty would not actually send troops to Anbei, it would station 100,000 troops.

At the Anbei border, military threats made Anbei unable to move.

This guarantee from the Liao Dynasty immediately made Ge Wa's mind come alive, and he finally made a decision.

It was better to prepare with both hands. Instead of talking first and then fighting, Gewa decided to talk while fighting. He led 200,000 troops into Xiaogu County, and asked his brother Gewa Jiji to sit in the rear, with the state as the core, and lead the army.

110,000 troops to defend against the incoming reinforcements from the Jin Dynasty.

The siege battle has lasted for four days. In just four days, Tubo has launched more than ten rounds of strong attacks. The losses were huge, nearly 30,000, but the damage of the Jin army was also great, more than 10,000.

“Your Majesty, the city wall in Xiaogu County is not very good.

A large part of the city wall has collapsed under our strong attack. I am going to send 3,000 crossbowmen to set up near the city to prevent the Jin army from repairing the city wall. Please give me your permission."

A Tibetan general asked for orders.

Ge Wa glanced at this man appreciatively, nodded and said with a smile: "That's right, capture Xiaogu County, and I will reward you with ten high-quality Han women."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The Tubo general looked happy and bowed to express his thanks.

Gewa waved his hand with a smile on his face. Regarding these generals who lead the army, Gewa knows what they want. As long as you give them what they want, they will give you their lives.

An Mo Ducuo was Ge Wa's confidant general, so he was naturally the closest to him. An Mo Ducuo glanced at everyone, then approached Ge Wa and whispered: "Your Majesty, after four consecutive days of strong attacks, I still can't take down Xiao Gu.

In this small town of the county, everyone's fighting spirit has been somewhat affected, and reinforcements from the Jin Dynasty are about to arrive, so continuing like this is not an option."

Ge Wa narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "Don't worry, it only takes a day or two to capture Xiaogu County. The other party won't be able to hold on for long."

An Mo nodded alone and didn't say much. He was quite convinced of Gewa. Gewa went from being a nobody to controlling the entire Tubo and reaching the pinnacle of power. In less than ten years, he conquered Long for the first time.

In the Battle of the Right, Tubo was defeated miserably. All forces suffered heavy losses. Only Gewa's 20,000 troops were unscathed. No matter what method he used, whether it was despicable or shameless, he completely preserved himself.

strength, this is a fact.

In the process of controlling the supreme power of Tubo, Gewa was ruthless, tough-minded, and very smart in politics. He quickly put down the turmoil in Tubo, and now the second battle of Longyou. With careful planning and decisive actions, in a very short time

In a short period of time, brilliant results were achieved. Although a Jin Dynasty general named Li Xun fought several victories in Langzhou, the senior Tibetan officials felt that it was nothing and the losses were not big. In their view, this was

It's just an episode, an accident, it can't change the direction of the overall situation.

Precisely because he felt that Gewa had great wisdom and could reach great heights, An Mo Du Chou believed in his own judgment, so he finally chose to surrender. In fact, An Mo Du Chou had always been a powerful faction in the Tubo military.
