Chapter 1446 Probe
"Report, pay homage to Duke Lu!"
"Whitei came to report the news under the order of the British Duke. When the British Duke left, the army under the British Duke was still about 300 miles away from Xinghai City. The speed of the army marched sixty miles a day. Now two days have passed, and the army should be 180 miles away from Xinghai City!"
Cheng Yaojin couldn't help but grin and said, "Okay, my general's army is about 200 miles away from Xinghai City at this time. They are all moving according to the established plan, just waiting to join forces together."
"I will go back and report to the Duke!"
Cheng Yaojin laughed and said, "It's very hard for you to gallop all the way, so you don't have to run back. In fact, I have already sent people to the Duke of England and Duke of E!"
"Facts have proved that our three armies have marched according to the established plan. In another two days, we can encircle the Tubo people and launch a general attack!"
"Now, I just don't know what's going on in Xinghai City!"
The cavalry who reported the news quickly said, "I don't know about this humble position. Because our Duke was afraid of alarming the enemy, he did not send a scout to check it out."
Cheng Yaojin waved his hand and said, "We are returning to the army very quickly. According to estimates, Xinghai City should be able to hold on. Besides, it will be necessary to launch a siege in two days, so it is not bad for the past two days. Okay, you go down and rest quickly!"
The cavalry who reported the news was led to rest, and the atmosphere in the tent suddenly became enthusiastic. Now the other two armies have been in place as planned. Two days later, it will be time to join forces to launch a total of time. The war is coming, so how can we not be excited?
At the same time, Li Ji and Yuchi Gong also received news that they had confirmed that the three armies had already taken their positions as planned and had only been waiting for two days before they launched a siege.
The fierce battle of the day ended again. Although many warriors still climbed the ladder, they still did not attack the city in the end.
The means of attacking Xinghai City were very single, so I could only carry the cloud ladder and set up the cloud ladder to launch a fierce attack on the city wall.
Because other means are useless, the range of the trench is far inferior to that of the cannon. Before it can enter the range of the trench, it was smashed by the cannon.
Archers are not good either, because the range of muskets is far longer than that of bows and arrows, and the muskets are still condescending.
Faced with artillery and muskets, the Tubo people could only carry the ladder to charge.
I can only choose to fill in the lives of people, so this siege battle was very fierce.
Never before.
The generals' faces were a little calm in the Tubo central tent.
They were not surprised that Xinghai City was not captured today.
"Master, our offensive today is stronger than yesterday, but the muskets of the defenders in the city are more intense than yesterday, so we did not capture Xinghai City!" Saamu concluded concisely.
"Doesn't that mean that as long as the bullets in Xinghai City are not exhausted, it will be difficult for us to capture Xinghai City?"
"Why did Xinghai City suddenly dare to consume bullets like this again?"
"Nonsense, if they didn't consume bullets so much, we would have captured Xinghai City today. As long as they don't want to lose Xinghai City, they will have to consume it like this!"
"It makes sense to say that, but how many bullets are there in Xinghai City for consumption?"
This question was the most critical, and all the generals were asked at once.
Although they were all arrogant, after personally experiencing the power of firearms, they had to admit that if Xinghai City had sufficient bullets, they would not have the confidence to capture Xinghai City.
Songtsen Gampo kept listening to the generals' comments carefully and pondered: "Xinghai City should not have much gun and bullet reserves."
"At first of all, Su Cheng was guarding the food and grass in the rear. How could he carry a lot of bullets with a large amount of food and grass? And he wouldn't have thought that we would attack Xinghai City in surprise!"
"Secondly, if Xinghai City had sufficient bullets, how could Xinghai City restrain the bullets of muskets in the past few days of siege? What he should think of was to repel us as soon as possible."
Saamu nodded and said, "Zampu wisely. Xinghai City is indeed very densely shot in muskets today. In fact, it was just because of the situation. The generals felt that this was the last struggle of Xinghai City. They were almost at the end of their way!"
Songtsen Gampo nodded slightly and said with a smile: "What you said makes sense. If there is no bullet, the Shenji Camp will be completely destroyed. The city will be broken in an instant!"
Just now, a personal guard walked in and said respectfully: "Qi Zanpu, the scout sent out has returned."
Songtsen Gampo was excited when he heard this and ordered: "Let him come in!"
The scout leader walked into the tent and said respectfully: "Watch Zanpu, Beiyi was ordered to explore the northwest for seventy miles, but no trace of the Tang Dynasty's soldiers was found."
What Songtsen Gampo feared most was the 50,000 army led by Li Ji. If Li Ji's army returned, it would have come from the northwest.
Since there were no clues of the Tang army fifty miles deep into the northwest, it means that Li Ji's army did not return.
This was actually within Songtsen Gampo's expectations, because Li Ji's army was unlikely to return to the army.
If Cheng Yaojin or Yuchi Gong's army returned, he would eat them directly.
Songtsen Gampo breathed a sigh of relief and nodded, "Okay, go down and have a good rest. Continue to explore tomorrow, be sure to investigate carefully!"
The scout agreed respectfully and slowly retreated.
The generals listened quietly, but they were thinking in their hearts, Zanpu was too careful, right?
The army has only been besieging Xinghai City for a few days. How could the Tang army return?
Unless the Tang army can calculate and directly calculate their army's surprise attack on Xinghai City, how could it be possible to suddenly return to the army without any reason?
Not to mention, the Tang army could not find that the army was pursuing only 10,000 cavalry. Even if they really found any clues, the Tang army would not be able to return to Xinghai City. They would only speed up and go straight to Tuyuhun Royal City.
So, now the Tang army may be about to arrive at Tuyuhun Royal City!
After the scout leader left the tent, Saamu smiled and said, "Zamp is worried. The Tang army is still being led around the nose. Even if the Tang army finds something abnormal, they will go straight to Tuyuhun Royal City."
"The last general is looking forward to Li Ji and the others discovering any clues, and then head straight to Tuyuhun Royal City, and then they will find that Tuyuhun Royal City has become an empty city."
"It's a pity that I couldn't see the expression of the Tang army generals when they discovered that Tuyuhun Royal City had become an empty city. That must be very exciting!"
The generals in the tent couldn't help laughing when they heard this, as if they had already thought of the shocked and dumbfounded look of the Tang army generals.
