"It should be fast." Xu Deyan, who hurriedly boarded the city, replied to Yu Yi.

"But the Turks clearly don't intend to hold us up any longer." Yu Yi couldn't help but smile bitterly, "You see the sun is about to go down, it stands to reason that this should be the last attack of the Turks today, the Turks' eyesight at night is not very good, it is impossible to use cavalry to attack at night." ”

These days, it is not uncommon for the Turks to attack at night, and even recently it can be said that they will attack every night, of course, the main purpose of this is to prevent the defenders of the city from repairing the city, after all, you can't expect to sleep on the strength of the soldiers who still carry torches.

After a pause, Yu Yi was a little helpless: "However, this posture is clearly intended to break through our defense line today." ”

"Whether it's foot soldiers or cavalry, they have to rush in through these gaps after all," Xu Deyan stretched out his finger, "so if we block those Turkic foot soldiers, we will be able to block their cavalry." ”

"We only have three low walls." Yu Yi raised his eyebrows.

"We still have a camp in the south of the city, and even we still have our flesh and blood." Xu Deyan's voice was still flat, "The time should be in these two days, so as long as we can support it today, then we may be able to see hope tomorrow." ”

Yu Yi gritted his teeth and looked at the Turkic cavalry that was getting closer and closer, this time he didn't say anything, but directly pointed the saber in his hand forward!

Countless arrows roared out in the next moment.

Since it was destined to be a bloody night, it was better to make this night come faster than to be afraid here.

————————-

The night came quickly.

Being at the north entrance of the valley, I couldn't hear the sound of the fight in the south back to Lecheng, but I could also know that at this time, Brother Pao Ze over there must also be fighting bloodily.

Soldiers dressed as Han Chinese slaves hobbled through the snow, while the Turks in the camp had sent a troop of cavalry to verify their identities. The small Turkic leader who led the cavalry was obviously quite familiar with Heli, and as soon as he saw Heli, the vigilant expression on his face relaxed a lot, and he shouted in Turkic:

"Congratulations, that's a big catch!"

Hali laughed and saluted at the other party, although the other party was just a small leader, but he was the personal entourage of the Turkic Ye Hu, and he was completely different from the leader of the small tribe, and it was his honor for the other party to praise himself like this.

Of course, Heli's laughter sounded a little fake, but the little leader obviously didn't notice this, but looked at the Han slaves in front of him a little strangely: "Where did you get these slaves from, why are there only men and no women, and they all look young?" ”

After all, the Han slaves caught on weekdays are mainly caught from local villages and towns, men, women and children, and these small Turkic leaders of course also know that men are the most important source of labor, even if he wants, Heli will not give up, but women are different, after all, the physical strength of Han women is not as good as that of Turkic women on the grassland, so it is mainly used as a tool for catharsis (harmony) and fertility in Turkic people.

Therefore, this little boss wanted to see if there was any good goods here in Heli for the first time, and with his identity and relationship with Heli, it was not a big deal to ask for fun.

As a result, he was a little surprised to see that they were all young men.

"This is a lost Nanban caravan." "I was disoriented because of the snow, so I was going south, but I didn't know that I had gone to the north, and I happened to be hit by someone." ”

This is also the rhetoric that Yu Xi and Heli discussed before. Otherwise, there is really no way to explain where these hundreds of young men came from. Of course, at this time there would be caravans crossing the steppe, which in itself is an inexplicable lie.

However, there is really no other reason to explain the sudden appearance of so many people here, after all, there is still a big difference between the Turks and the Han people in appearance and size, and it is not very convincing for so many people to pretend to be Turks.

Of course, Yu Xi's purpose was not to be able to directly rush into the Turkic camp, it was enough to be able to get as close as possible.

The little Turkic leader looked at these dejected Han slaves suspiciously, and unexpectedly he didn't seem to say much, but just glanced at Heli meaningfully, and Heli immediately bowed slightly: "Our brothers haven't seen each other for a few months, and I'll send you fifty later, let's have a few drinks to help the fun!" ”

Seeing the small Turkic leader riding his horse away, Heli Fang breathed a sigh of relief, if the little Turkic leader just now really planned to make a move, I am afraid that Yu Xi and the others behind him would take his life first as soon as possible.

With the southward raiding of the Turks in recent years, where are there still so many business travelers on the steppe, and even if it is a large business team, it is impossible to have so many people. In fact, these big and small leaders and tribal leaders knew very well in their hearts that these people were all captured Han scouts, and it was even more likely that they were defeated Han troops.

It's just that since there is a war, according to the rules of the Turks, part of the spoils of war must be taken out and handed over to Ye Hu. And if it is just said that this is a random loot of Han merchants or village people, then naturally it is not so complicated.

Therefore, when the following people usually count and report the seizures, they also have these opportunistic methods, and everyone tacitly understands them.

And for the leaders of the upper level of Ye Hu and Tutun, this bit of loot is actually not in their eyes, their wealth mainly comes from the seizure of their own tribe and the surrounding tribes, and these small tribes themselves are unlikely to do anything earth-shattering, so it is impossible to have any really huge seizures, so open one eye and close one eye, everyone is comfortable.

As for the entourage they sent down to inspect below, such as the little leader just now, they all knew in their hearts that as long as they could receive a little benefit, it would be nothing to help cover up. Don't look at the hundreds of people here in Heli who are only allocated to him fifty people, take a little from here, take a little from there, and this is naturally more.

This kind of thing is not less, so the small leader didn't take this to heart at all, not so much to care about what a small tribal leader like Hali can do, but to think about whether he can make a difference in the battle ahead.

"Let's go." Yu Xi's smile gradually became hideous.
