它并不具有任何特别的展示作用。

It doesn't have any obvious defensive8 function.

也没有任何明显的防御功能。

So why's that wall there?

If storming the citadel through the tunnels was impossible, then the only other option would be to build a siege tower.

And by the most ruthless means, on the backs of captured Guge prisoners.

因此他们开始使用战俘。

The royal precinct was virtually unassailable.

要攻下王宫几乎不可能。

The Ladahki army reached the shelf beneath the sheer summit.

拉达克人到达陡峭山顶下的一块岩石。

They were stuck here for sometime around one month, so they began to build a siege tower with pressed Guge labor9.
