That's the thing about war, it's always the most dangerous time when you feel relaxed.
The Turks proved with their lives and blood that their previous victories were not achieved by chance.
Wolves are bloodthirsty, and the specific manifestation is that they don't care about other people's lives, nor do they care about their own lives.
Look at those shirtless guys climbing up the city wall like ants with broken knives in their mouths.
Yunhao's scalp was numb.
Loud rumbling noises kept ringing, followed by explosions.
Sharp iron nails and steel balls flew everywhere, cutting the Turks' leather robes and embedded deeply into their flesh.
Those guys who were bleeding profusely and with horrific wounds all over their bodies were still climbing the wall.
Even though they screamed and howled, the pace of climbing the wall never stopped.
Until the moment the blood dries up Facing such a terrifying enemy, Yunhao finally knew.
Why can't even someone as powerful as the Sui Dynasty defeat them?
Why was Li Er's great victory so exciting?
As long as they are human beings, they will be afraid of huge roars, and Yunhao is sure that the Turkic soldiers are also afraid.
Because their bodies will tremble when they explode.
The timid ones may even be so frightened that they sit on the ground.
But the trembling guy will only be stunned for a moment, and then continue to climb the wall like crazy.
The guy sitting on the ground will jump up as fast as he can.
Attack with shame and no regard for life and death.
It was as if he wanted to use his own blood to wash away the cowardice he had just felt.
The number of casualties was rising sharply, and the Turks' casualties were more than twice that of the Tang army.
The corpses under the city have been piled up almost two feet high, and they are still piling up.
It seems that if you pile the corpses on the city wall, you will win.
I remember an ancient Roman general who lamented after many years of fighting against the Germanic armies: They didn’t understand military matters, but they were very tough, and they didn’t understand tactics, but they were very cunning.
This simple sentence contains profound philosophy.
Many people have said that the best teacher is not a special teacher or a famous school, but interest.
But this answer is wrong.
In this world, the best teacher is survival.
For a piece of land, for a house, for a piece of meat, to live one more day in this world, to be familiar with the skills of killing, to master the know-how of robbery, without urging or persuasion, and to know how to survive in every battle between life and death, Know how to survive.
Survival is very difficult, so in order to survive, you must be more cunning and cruel.
The Turks have a first-class talent for learning war in wars.
Perhaps this is why God threw them to live a life of chaos in the desert steppes.
The gunpowder shells soon lost their effectiveness as a ignited gunpowder shell was thrown down the city.
He will immediately be hugged by the crazy Turks, and then give the warmest hug to Mother Earth.
After a dull sound, the living people turned into minced meat.
But the power of gunpowder bullets is also greatly reduced.
Yunhao's face was ashen.
He had seen Xue Ju's Longyou cavalry before.
The impression given to him was that of toughness, while the Turkic people gave Yunhao the impression of being iron-blooded.
Such an enemy is both terrifying and respectable.
For the first time, Yunhao felt respect for his opponent.
Although, these people are cold, cruel and barbaric.
But they are really qualified warriors "Use kerosene bombs," Yunhao sighed helplessly.
He felt like the little girl lighting a match to keep warm.
A basket of matches could never withstand the cold wind, but for a moment of warmth, she had to strike the matches again and again.
The messenger immediately ran away to convey Yun Hao's order, and soon threw incendiary bombs with flames from the tower.

Animals are instinctively afraid of fire.
Humans are advanced animals, but they still belong to the category of animals.
But when Yunhao looked at those guys covered in flames, screaming and lying on the ladder.
Yunhao was deeply shocked Although this behavior is heroic and touching, it can even shock the enemy.
But Yunhao believes that this kind of behavior is very heartless.
The burning body quickly ignited the ladder.
Burnt ladders fell from the city walls, and more things were set alight.
Of course, the torch thrown by Master Sheng Yan from the top of the city also played a role in fueling the flames.
The fire surrounding Bingzhou City burned quickly, and the flames swirled with heat waves.
Bringing black smoke and the hope of the Turks to attack the city to the sky.
The ladder will not burn for long, and the torch will burn even shorter.
The best fuel is actually those people under the city wall.
Living and dead The burning corpse continued to leak out drops of human oil, adding to the power of the flames.
The living people will run howling with flames, and the dead people will sit up suddenly in the raging fire.
His eyes, nose, and mouth were all on fire, and the image was extremely terrifying.
Amidst the raging fire, the siege ceased.
There was no way not to stop.
The heat wave caused by the burning fire made people avoid it ten feet away.
Yunhao inside the tower felt his face burning.
His mouth and nose were filled with an annoying burnt smell.
Tang Jun got a precious respite, and Jie Li's heart was bleeding.
These were the bravest warriors of the Turks, and they attacked all morning.
Seeing that Bingzhou City was about to be captured, the Tang army came up with this wicked thing again.
This fire looks like it will burn for a while.
The three-foot-thick pile of corpses provided ample fuel for the flames.
"How many casualties have there been?"
Jie Li looked at the curly-haired Ashina Simo.
"More than five thousand people," Ashina Simo glanced at Jie Li and lowered his head before answering.
Jieli's heart twitched, these five thousand people were the essence of the Turkic clan.
In just one morning and one noon, they were buried under Bingzhou City.
"The fire is out, I'll go again."
Ashina Simo gritted his teeth.
Many of his subordinates and brothers were burning.
What he wants to do most now is to rush into the city and kill all those damn Han people.
"Forget it, don't go any further.
We will withdraw our troops after dark."
Jieli sighed helplessly, patted Ashina Simo on the shoulder and turned around to leave.
"Why?"
Ashina Simo's eyes were red and he pounced on Jieli like a wolf.
Grabbing his arm and not letting him go.
"So what if we break this city?
It almost makes us drain our blood.
Do you know how many small counties like this there are in Hebei?"
"But other counties don't have so many defenders.
Maybe they don't have such terrifying weapons."

Ashina Simo frowned, he really didn't want to leave like this.
"You just said that maybe as the king of the Turks, I must be as brave as a lion, and at the same time find traps like a fox.
We have suffered so many casualties, even if we return to the grassland.
How can we continue to make those tribes who are ready to surrender The grassland is not only the grassland of the Turks, but also the grassland of many tribes.
If we bury all our warriors here, we will not be able to win.
The Turks will be replaced by the Xi people and the Jile people.
We will lose the home we depend on for survival, and will be reduced from eagles on the grassland to the lowest slaves.
The cruelty they inflicted on them will be returned to our descendants a hundredfold.
Ashina Simo, you are the bravest warrior of the Ashina family, but you are not a qualified king. " After Jie Li finished speaking, he patted Ashina Simo on the shoulder again and left.
Letting Ashina Simo behind him let out the most piercing roar, Jieli knew that the good days of the Turks plundering the Han people at will were over.
Maybe it's time to talk to Liu Wenjing.
Returning to the grassland to lick the wounds on the body is the right way.
As the king of the Turks, it is impossible not to leave a way out for yourself.
Hundreds of thousands of people will follow him to eat, and he will suffer heavy losses in Han Dynasty.
How will he become king when he returns to the grassland in the future?
If a descendant of the wolf clan is bullied by a fox, Jieli will never let this happen to him.
Liu Wenjing is her brother's friend, although she doesn't like him.
But in order to obtain greater benefits, it is not impossible to make friends.
In war, when you feel like you can't hold on anymore.
Maybe your enemies are feeling the same way Yunhao felt that he could no longer hold on.
Zuowuwei suffered more than 1,500 casualties in one morning.
Yunhao had no choice but to pull the resting team to the city wall again and again.
The city wall is a flesh and blood mill, filled with living people and broken dead people flowing out.
More than half of the kerosene was consumed, and only one-third of the gunpowder remained.
Without these two things, Yunhao really didn't know how he should deal with the Turks hitting him like waves.
For the first time, Yunhao felt that death was so close to him.
Master Sheng Yan's neck was cut open by a stray arrow.
It was very dangerous that if he tilted even half an inch higher, the sharp arrow would cut his artery.
What I saw now was not a guy with a thick neck, but a corpse.
I used to always say that I had an arrow in my butt, and I would look at Qiu Shili lying on the stretcher and "hum" and "hum".
Yunhao felt that his mouth had been opened because this guy really got an arrow in the butt.
It is not clear how he was hit by the arrow.
Anyway, a stray arrow penetrated his butt along the armor leaf.
Good luck to this one, too, if it hits the spine.
He never wants to walk again in his life The camp was full of wounded soldiers.
Except for Xiong Kuohai, who seemed to be able to fight forever, half of Zuo Wuwei's officers were wounded.
The officers in the cold weapon era are different from the hot weapon era.
These guys have no concept in their minds.
The style of "Follow Me" is deeply ingrained in their bones.
The fire outside the city wall was gradually extinguishing, so Yunhao asked someone to prepare hot water.
As soon as the flames are extinguished, they are poured on the city wall as quickly as possible.
Hot water freezes faster than cold water, and the ice formed by hot water is smoother.
The Turks seemed to have no intention of attacking again, and Yunhao believed that an attack of this scale would happen.
He can probably survive for three to five days.
If reinforcements have not arrived by then, he will need to explain his funeral arrangements. .

Gathering his men, Yunhao looked at the faces that looked like little ghosts.
He stood up and bowed deeply to his subordinates.
Everyone was shocked, and they couldn't even react whether they wanted to help their commander or not.
"Brothers, we are running out of fuel and gunpowder.
For the rest of the battle, we can only rely on the swords in our hands.
I don't know when the reinforcements will arrive.
I don't even know if there will be reinforcements.
I am telling you these things honestly just to let you know that maybe we will all die here.
Those who want to leave, or those who want to surrender.
I understand, but the Turks besieged the city on all sides.
Going out may be more difficult than reaching the sky.
If you want to surrender, your death will be uglier than that of a pig.
Those who doubt what I am saying can look at the charred corpses and ashes on the layer below the city.
Since we can't survive, we fight for our lives.
Pick up your swords and use the blood of the enemy to prove that the Han people are brave and not inferior to the Turks.
I, a big man, stand upright and want to eat us.
You have to break a tooth first before you can kill him."
Yunhao raised the horizontal knife in his hand and shouted at the top of his voice, slashing Yin'er away.
The soldiers didn't care.
Everyone knew what the Turks could do after they broke the city.
Killed so many Turks because of their temperament.
There must not be a single living person left in this city.
In this case, killing one is enough for me, but killing two damn ones makes one.
"Kill" The soldiers raised their swords, and their shouts of killing made the snow on the roof tiles "pop" and "pop" fall down.
Jieli outside the city also heard the shocking sound of killing, and shook his head helplessly and walked into the tent.
Inside the tent, Liu Wenjing bowed with a smile.
Seeing Jie Li walking in, he immediately bent down even lower.
As an old friend of the Turkic people, Liu Wenjing knows how to please the Turks.
Liu Wenjing is surrounded by Kang Sheaoli, a confidant of Chuluo Khan and Jieli's good friend.
As a comrade fighting side by side, Kang Sheoli once participated in Li Yuan's attack on Song Laosheng and Yu Juluo.
We have an irreversible friendship with Liu Wenjing.
This time Liu Wenjing came to the Turkic army, it was Kang Sheoli who was the matchmaker.
"Tang Dynasty Ambassador Liu Wenjing met with the Khan" Liu Wenjing seemed very humble.
At the same time, he presented his gift list with both hands.
He knew the rules for burning incense in the temple, not to mention that the Turks had a Bodhisattva in the temple.
Chuluo Khan was his friend, not Jieli.
"I often hear my brother mention you.
You are a good person.
Why did the emperor of the Tang Dynasty ask you to come and ask me to withdraw my troops?
Liu Wenjing, you have seen it.
Hundreds of thousands of Turkic warriors are waiting for you.
Even if I agree, they will not agree. , Even if they agree, the swords in their hands will not agree."
Jie Li just glanced at Liu Wenjing and sat in the middle.
"Khan, this time the Turkic army invaded the border" "A white-haired wind broke out on the grassland.
We suffered heavy losses and naturally had to go to Han to escape.

Since the Tang Dynasty and the Turks are brotherly states, it is not excessive to lend us Hebei to escape the wind and snow," Liu Wenjing said.
After saying that, he was interrupted harshly by Ashina Simo.
"This" Liu Wenjing's eyes were about to fall off in shock.
She had never seen such a shameless person before
