    Although it is early morning, it is already cloudless and the sky is clear blue. Today is destined to be a sunny and hot summer day.

    While the Tubo people were drinking butter tea, the Tang army under Doma City made some movement. The bugle sounded and the Tang army began to assemble.  Since the Tang army surrounded Doma City, the Tang army only rested and there was no such movement.

    This was very unusual, and the Tibetan soldiers rushed to report to Dalan.  At this time, Dalan no longer had the arrogance of the past after the battle outside Doma City.  He is a well-known Tibetan general who has a very high self-esteem and cannot be ignored by others. In the battle of Doma City, he not only defeated tens of thousands of Tibetan troops, but also made Dalan seem to be a different person.

    "The Tang Army is about to attack!" Dalan thought to himself, straightened his armor, and hurried to the top of the city. Looking around, there was nothing in the Tang Army's camp for dozens of miles except the sound of bugles and the neighing of war horses.  One person makes a noise.

    Dalan is proficient in the art of war and knows that it is not easy for an army of tens of thousands to purge like this. Even the Tubo army cannot do it, but the Tang army can do it. The Tang army is so strong and invincible that it is not a coincidence.  Comparable.  His defeat at the gate of Thomas was not unjust.

    When thinking of that battle, Dalan felt very uncomfortable and sneered: "Even if the Tang army is brave and good at fighting, what can they do to me? This is Doma City, and it is not comparable to those small cities you captured."

    Doma City is the northern gate of Tubo. Tubo has put a lot of effort into it and has been operating for hundreds of years. It is very strong. It is inferior to Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty. According to Dalan's estimation, if the Tang army wants to attack Doma City, it will not be worth the effort.  The price is 30,000, but 20,000 cannot escape.

    It is ten miles in diameter and is entirely built with blue stones. The city wall is five feet high. You can imagine how strong it is.  Moreover, there is a lot of food and grass stored in the city, which is enough for the 30,000-strong army for three months. Dalan is very confident: "Let's fight slowly! Although I only have less than 10,000 people, I can still provide  A painful lesson for you!¡±

    Just when Dalan changed his mind, the Tang army marched out of the camp, one team after another, the men and horses were in order, their helmets were bright and their armor was bright, and their momentum was like a rainbow.  The Tang army came outside the city and formed square formations. They stood upright as if they were cement piles and could not be moved.

    What surprised Dalan was that the Tang army did not bring siege weapons, and there was not a single cavalry, let alone heavy infantry, and some were only light infantry.

    Dalan was very familiar with the Tang Army's tactics. If it was a field battle, the Tang Army would lay out multiple crossbows, Zhang Zhang crossbows, horn crossbows and single bow crossbows, waiting for the enemy to die.  If the enemy charged rashly, they would be shot by the Tang Army's powerful long-range weapons, causing heavy casualties.

    When the enemy is almost exhausted, the cavalry, heavy infantry and light infantry of the Tang Army will join the battle.  Cavalry and light infantry were used to deal with enemy infantry, while heavy infantry was mainly responsible for dealing with enemy cavalry.

    In a word, the reason why the Tang Army is strong is not only because they are well-trained, well-equipped, and courageous, but also because the Tang Army has good coordination and cooperation.  On the battlefield, the Tang Army generally did not commit one arm to fight, but often coordinated with multiple arms.  Good coordination is an important reason why the Tang army is invincible.

    Dalan had never seen anything like today where only light infantry was sent out. He couldn't help but be surprised. His eyes widened and he looked at the light infantry again and again. Yes, it was light infantry!

    "What are they going to do? If they can capture Doma City with light infantry without siege weapons, it would be a big joke! I, Dalan, am not so incompetent!" Dalan thought angrily.  .

    He would never have imagined that the Tang army had artillery, which was enough to deal with Doma City.  In the face of artillery, no matter how strong Doma City is, it cannot withstand it. As long as the city gate is opened, the Tang army's light infantry can enter the city and massacre.

    The heavy infantry is very powerful, but it requires enough space and the heavy infantry must be arranged in a formation to be powerful.  The problem is that Doma City is different from small cities like Sunset City. Not only is the city much larger, it is also much more prosperous. In addition to tents, there are many houses in the city.  These things hinder the performance of heavy infantry. Similarly, cavalry is of little use in Doma City. It is not as good as using light infantry for street fighting.

    It is from this consideration that Guo Qianguan decided to invest in light infantry.

    In the Tang Army¡¯s military camp, Chen Wanrong was standing facing the rising sun. The dazzling sunlight was very dazzling, but it had no impact on Chen Wanrong at all.

    Chen Wanrong stood in front of the artillery with a serious face. He glanced at the artillery and spoke slowly: "Brothers: Since we passed Shibao City, we have traveled thousands of miles. This is a miracle! Why do I say it is a miracle? Then  It¡¯s because we didn¡¯t ride on horses or march lightly, but we carried artillery and completed a thousand-mile journey. This is an amazing achievement!??Qi, it's not too late to stop by then.  "

    After such a fierce bombing, the Tubo people were already discouraged, and there was no point in continuing the fight. Guo Qianguan smiled and said: "General Geshu, I know you are holding your breath and want to cause trouble for the Tubo people. On the battlefield, you cannot act on your own initiative.  , The battle has reached this level, we have captured Doma City without spending a single soldier, we have already created a miracle, there is no point in fighting anymore!"

    Wang Zhongsi suddenly said: "Commander, General Geshu, this is a very good way to attack the mind!"

    "The art of attacking the mind? Where do you start talking about this?" Guo Qiangguan was a little confused.

    Wang Zhongsi explained to him: "Commander, please think about it, if we accept the surrender of Tibet now, it will not make much sense. If the bombing continues and the city is covered with white flags, it means that the Tibetans have lost their courage! By then,  We will accept their surrender again. After they surrender, we will tell them that the Tang Dynasty has dozens of sharp weapons, and the current one is just one of them. Let them go and let them tell the news to the Tibetans.  Commander, tell me, what will be the consequences?

    "Seize the energy before fighting! This is a great plan for a military strategist!"

    Until now, the Tang army has been overwhelming and has wiped out tens of thousands of enemies.  However, Tubo had sufficient strategic depth. The Tang army only achieved results by taking advantage of the suddenness of the war, and had not yet encountered the main force of Tubo.

    If you want to advance towards Luoxue City, you must encounter the main force of Tubo, and you must fight the Tubo people decisively. To seize the air before fighting, that is the best state of strategy, and you don't need to think about its benefits to know.

    If you want to take away the Qi, you have to make the enemy frightened. If you want to frighten the Tibetans, you have to make them bleed. Only when enough blood is shed, will they be afraid!

    Guo Qianguan suddenly realized it and hugged his fists at his brother Shuhan and Wang Zhongsi: "Thank you both for reminding me, Guo is ashamed!"

    Cheng Xiaotian stroked Wang Zhongsi¡¯s little head and laughed, ¡°Wang Zhongsi, you little genius!¡±

    "Yes! What a genius. Even those of us who have crawled among the dead can't figure it out, but he can see through it at a glance! It's amazing!" Although Fei Junxing slapped Wang Zhongsi, he still said nothing to Wang Zhongsi.  Tadashi was becoming more and more convinced of his intelligence, and he was very excited when he said this.

    The plan is certain, and the artillery fires endlessly.  The Tubo people suffered a loss and finally found some ways to deal with it, which was to spread out and stop standing together.  It was not difficult for Chen Wanrong to divide every five artillery pieces into a squad, a total of seven squads, and move around Doma City, hitting wherever there are more people.

    After a while, there were more and more white flags on the city. Less than half an hour later, white flags were fluttering on Doma City. The surviving Tibetan soldiers begged loudly for mercy: "We surrender, we surrender! Grandpa Tang, please spare us!"  "(To be continued.
