Three hundred and ninetieth IX tough battle
The siege is still fierce and tragic.
The Tubo people attacked the city completely like crazy. In the past two days, the Tubo army used the siege weapon like the well railing.
But Li Jiuzhou had experience in dealing with such siege equipment. He used ropes to lift heavy objects such as stones, more than 1,000 kilograms of heavy objects on the arrow towers and corner towers of the city walls. After the well railing of the Tubo army approached, he used a bed crossbow to shoot the ropes tied to the heavy objects with an iron hook. The iron hook hooked the Tubo army's bed crossbow, and then smashed the brackets supporting the heavy objects. The heavy drop of the heavy objects produced huge force and pulled the well railing of the Tubo army. All the Tubo soldiers on it would fall down, some were seriously injured, and some were thrown to death and killed.
As the sun was about to set on the horizon on the third day, the Tubo army also retreated like a tide. Li Jiuzhou held the blood-stained battlements of the city wall and asked, "How are the casualties?"

Sun Shouyi said: "Compared with the Tubo people, our casualties are better, and the losses between the two sides are almost one to three."
Li Jiuzhou said: "Even if there are so many people in the Tubo people, they cannot afford to consume it. If they continue to suffer such casualties, even if they have more than 100,000 people, they will not be able to consume it for ten days. Are they crazy?"
As the two were talking, the spy rushed over and said, "Report to the commander, the last time the cavalry raided the Tubo army, they shot and killed Tubo Zamp Shisongde during the pursuit. The spy said that Xisongde had been dead for several days, so the Tubo army soldiers were all fearless."
Li Jiuzhou and others looked at each other after hearing this. After a long time, Li Jiuzhou smiled and said, "It turns out that Sisongde was shot to death that time. I thought that man must be a big figure in Tubo. I didn't expect it to be Tubo Zanpu. No wonder Dazhalugong ordered the army to attack without regard to casualties and spread the news that Tubo Zanpu was killed. The Tubo people's crazy counterattack will not last long. As long as we persist, they will retreat when the Tubo people's spirits are gone!"
After the news spread, the Tang army soldiers were indeed excited, and their morale increased a lot.
In the evening, a cool storm blew, and a disgusting smell of corpse was blown under the city wall.
More than a dozen turbulent bombs roared in the sky. Some fell on the city wall and smashed many wall bricks, some hit the roofs of nearby houses, making a big hole. The house was ignited instantly, and two other trenchers hit the trenchers on the mound behind the city wall, igniting the turbulent oil piled nearby. Many Tang soldiers who shot the trenchers were swallowed up by the fire.
Li Jiuzhou looked at it and found that most of the landing points of the turbulent bombs fired by the Tubo army were near their own catapults. The turbulent bombs fired by the Tang army were unable to figure out the specific location of the Tubo catapult at night, and they threw several rounds but did not smash a Tubo catapult.
After firing a sulphur bomb for half an hour, a raging fire broke out on the city wall.
The Tang soldiers of the stone catapult crew began to mobilize urgently. The soldiers ran to their posts, observed their hands climbing up to a high place to observe, and then reported the distance and direction. The heavy object filling hands filled the basket with lead and iron blocks, the direction control hands adjusted the torque direction scale, and waited for the heavy object to be filled, more than a dozen big men held the horns and pulled the ropes to lift the heavy object to a high place, and then the archer placed the bracket to support the heavy object. The stone bullet filling hands opened the valve and put the stone bullet in the stone bullet, and poured oil on the stone bullet.

The sulphur bombs soared into the sky and flew out of the city.
The sulphur bombs flying through the sky, dragging long black smoke finally hit the ground. The burning sulphur splashed, and all the objects stained with sulphurs burned. The Tubo people's trenchers were hit and a raging fire was set off. The Tubo people were ready to attack, and a large number of sulphur tanks were transported and placed nearby. The sulphur tanks were hit and burned, and some even exploded.
The Tubo soldiers who were splashed on their bodies by tinder oil quickly started to burn and screamed.
The Tubo soldiers on the catapult position fled everywhere in frightened, and the people on fire were rolling all over the ground with burns and screaming.
Dazalugong and Tubo ministers and generals who had just walked out of the camp saw the turbulent bombs flying from a distance hitting their own catapult positions and caused a lot of fire. Their faces changed drastically.
With Dazha Lugong's order, countless Tubo soldiers rushed towards the city wall with shields and weapons. The siege ladders were placed on the city wall, but soon several ladders were pushed to the ground and smashed over several groups of Tubo troops. Then the ladders were yelled by the Tubo soldiers and carried them onto the city wall.
Arrows kept shooting down the city walls, and thunderstones were thrown down one by one. Rolling wood rolled down the ladder from top to bottom. Tubo soldiers under the city were shot to death, smashed to death, and crushed to death, but the other Tubo soldiers were still brave enough to climb up the ladder, one by one.
After an hour of siege, the Tubo army's siege echelon changed two groups. At Dazhalugong's order, thousands of Tubo soldiers pushed more than a dozen well rails and slowly approached the city wall. When they were about to enter the range of bows and arrows, a large number of Tubo archers climbed up the well rails, while other Tubo soldiers still pushed the well rails and advanced.
The Tubo soldiers who climbed up the well began to shoot arrows at the Tang soldiers on the city wall. Some Tang soldiers could not react as much as they were shot, some were injured, and some died.
Seeing this, Li Jiuzhou immediately ordered: "Order the archers to suppress them."

When the Tang army archers received the order, they immediately shot arrows at the Tubo archers on the opposite well railing. The two sides shot each other back and forth, and the rebel archers gradually could not resist, and many people were shot.
Li Jiuzhou's eyes extended further to the distance, and saw a team of cavalry coming from the flank near the Tubo Army Commander Platform, so he crossed his horse and led his troops out of the city.
After a while, Li Jiuzhou was already covered in blood. The enemy's body was cut off and the blood sprayed almost made him soak in the blood. There were only two catapults left on the left. He clamped his crotch hard, and the war horse was added another point. The Tang cavalry behind him kept firing arrows to the Tubo army rushing towards both sides. Some had no time to shoot arrows and could only kill them with long weapons.
The big knife in his hand slashed down with all his strength again. The most scattered rig on the left was cut off one foot. The Tang cavalry behind him immediately threw out the iron hook and hooked the broken leg. The seven or eight riders turned and pulled it hard. The well rail was tilted down and the Tubo army archers above screamed in shock.
With a loud bang, smoke and dust rose everywhere, and a large number of Tubo infantry rushing over were smashed. More Tubo troops panicked and turned to escape when they saw the well railing that was about to fall. The battlefield was in chaos.
Li Jiuzhou was about to head towards Shanzhou City, when a Tubo general rushed over with a team of cavalry and shouted: "Li Jiuzhou, you are not dead yet."
The person who came was the Tubo general Dazhalugong.
