Although Gaochang Huifu occupies the best part of the Western Regions, the melting snow of the Tianshan Mountains makes this land much better than the rest of the Western Regions, and some places can even be described as plugging the south of the Yangtze River.

The place is a good place, but Gaochang is surrounded by enemies! To the north is the Liao State, to the east is the Western Xia, to the south is the Great Song Dynasty and Khotan, and to the west is the Khattan Khanate.

These neighbors of Gaochang Kingdom, except for the Great Song Dynasty who did not fight him, other countries always had nothing to do and sent troops to beat Gaochang and plunder it by the way.

After decades, Gaochang was completely weakened, and the horse thieves in the territory were rampant, except for some major cities that were still controlled by the state, other places were the world of horse thieves, and Gaochang could only let it go.

There are hundreds of large and small horse thieves in this part of Turpan, and Tasi is just one of these horse thieves.

Merchants in the past were the main objects of horse thieves and plunder, and the merchants of all ethnic groups who walked in the Western Regions were not stupid.

The horse thieves, who had a hard time surviving, began to raise their butcher knives to the poor of their kind and the Western Regions, robbing their own kind, with the highest risks, but also great benefits.

Plundering ordinary poor people in the Western Regions, in addition to finding some black food from their dens, is to sell these poor people in the Western Regions into slavery.

In this poor and chaotic Western Regions, horse thieves are not having a good time! Sita's gang of horse thieves was of course like this, and when he learned that there was a "fat sheep", he immediately set off with more than 500 of his fierce horse thieves.

As a result, along the way, Tassi met several horse thieves rushing to the grape ditch, and when each other's strength was about the same, there was no such thing as black eating black, and horse thieves would not do that kind of stupid thing.

Since it is impossible to eat black from black, then implement the law of robbers, and whoever grabs it will be whom. According to the sentry reports of the horse thieves, the "fat sheep" in the grape ditch were a group of Han people, and all the horse thieves involved in the gang were confident that this was just a casual raid.

When the thieves reached the grape ditch, they were stunned, and a snake-shaped earthen wall was built in front of the grape ditch, but this earthen wall was really a little low.

The earthen wall less than one person high, in front of the horse thief with superb equestrian skills, is not a city wall at all, a longitudinal horse can cross over, so what are you waiting for, just rush in and loot......

After two days and two nights of hard work by hundreds of Han people, a sinuous and serpentine earthen wall was finally built at the mouth of the grape ditch, the earthen wall was indeed only two meters high, but under the earthen wall was a moat two meters wide and one meter deep.

After the earthen wall was built, the others were sleeping, but Yun Mo and Zhang Ying did not rest, the horse thief sentry who appeared two days ago has already explained that a large number of horse thieves are coming.

This is a battle of life and death, and there is no room for loss. The leather armor, iron armor, shields, swords and other weapons in the cave were all taken out, and then placed in the earthen wall for testing, and when everyone woke up, they immediately distributed weapons and equipment.

Only victory can survive, only pay can succeed, only hard work can reap, and nothing is like this in the world.

There are gaps in the leather armor, gaps in the sword, these are not tight, first solve the problem, when the horse thieves come to attack the city, as long as everyone has weapons in their hands, at least they can defend the city.

Don't think about it in the field, thank God if you can hold it, hundreds of Han people who have not undergone any training, go out of the city and fight with horse thieves, they can only be sent to death.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Yun Mo began to organize people to distribute weapons and equipment, but fortunately, there were enough weapons and equipment stored on Zhang Yingzu, and hundreds of Han people were allocated weapons and equipment.

Of the more than 500 Han people bought back by Yun Mo, there are more than 230 men, these people are all young people, and they can't talk about being strong, how can Han slaves be strong, and if they have a life, even if the slave owner is merciful.

From the more than 200 men, the slightly taller Han Chinese were selected, and they were given iron armor, and then they were equipped with red tassel spears.

Although there are not many ironclads, only more than 30 pairs, these ironclad soldiers are "firefighting teams", and there is a danger of being broken through that section of the city wall, so they will go to support wherever they go.

Don't talk about martial arts, how can Han slaves know martial arts! Yun Mo handed everyone a move - Qi Thorn. Yes, everyone shouted the order of "stab and receive", and attacked the enemy in front of them together.

This method may not work in field combat, attacking the enemy who climbs the wall on the city wall, it is definitely useful, as long as these Han people can poke their spears out of their hands to the enemy without hesitation, this battle will be easy to fight.

The problem is whether the Han people, who have been enslaved for a long time, still don't have the courage to stab the spear in their hands, which is what Yun Mo is most worried about.

When more than 1,000 horse thieves approached the city, the panicked expressions of the Han people who bought them were written on their faces, and many of them were trembling, if it wasn't for the grape ditch and no escape, they might have thrown down their weapons and fled.

The city wall and the weapons in their hands gave them a little confidence to resist, but this confidence in resistance was not reliable at all, and they must be given enough faith, a belief to dare to fight.

Yun Mo had gone through more than ten years of brainwashing education before he crossed, and this pre-war mobilization was also brainwashing, while the horse thieves were still attacking, Yun Mo concentrated everyone under the earthen wall, and he stood on top of the earthen wall and began to carry out pre-war agitation;

"Today, we stand here! Stand on the land of the Han people! Stand in the Tang Anxi Protectorate, this land watered by our ancestors with blood and dignity!

In front of me, standing is a people, a people groaning in humiliation! After the death of the Tang Dynasty, the pride of our nation will be gone! Those victors rode on our necks to make a fortune, they trampled on our dignity at will, slaughtered our countrymen, our wives and daughters and sisters.

Tell me, do you choose to be a warrior fighting for freedom, or a slave?!

You may say, "Mr. Yunmo, I need to live, even if it's just to survive." Yes, you are right, life is so important, but I want to tell you that there is one thing in this world that is more important than life, and that is freedom! That's dignity!

As long as the enemy's banner still flutters over all the territories of the Tang Dynasty, our dignity does not exist!

As long as those barbarians are still burning and looting on our land, our dignity will not exist!

As long as we have not restored all the territories of the Tang Dynasty, our dignity does not exist!

As long as people from other countries let out a contemptuous laugh when they talk about the word Han, our dignity does not exist!

What we need is not to live in peace! It's a living space! A living space for a nation! This living space is not achieved by begging and protesting, but by iron and blood!
