Datang: Only by resisting the decree can we become stronger

"You who are covered in injuries will only drag more people down!"

"The two generals will leave only if you withdraw!"

After hearing his words, these people finally made up their minds. After looking in the direction of the city gate for the last time, they turned around and left straight away with tears in their eyes.

On the other side, Li Qiu was holding a horse lance, guarding the gate alone, across the ten-meter-long opening of the city gate.

Turning a blind eye to the attacks of the Turkic soldiers, they opened and closed, reaping the lives of the enemy.

He has a gold medal of system props to avoid death, so he still has a bit of confidence in his heart.

At this time, if he took a little more risk, a few more generals of the Tang army would survive.

One day in the future, they will bring out a better army and crush the Turks!

Just when Li Qiu's eyes were red and he started to suffer some minor injuries intensively, Luo Kexin appeared on his left side in time.

Without unnecessary nonsense, without even looking at him, they went straight into the fight.

Following Luo Kexin, Luo Liang stood on Li Qiu's right side, and helped him resist the intensive attacks from this side.

As for the Shenwu Army and the White Horse Guards behind them, they also joined the battle one after another.

Luo Kexin's force value is 85, and Luo Liang's force value is 80. With the two of them joining, Li Qiu suddenly felt the pressure on his body lighten.

The strong combat power that he had been restricted for a long time finally exploded, and the horse in his hand was like a dragon entering the sea, beheading the lives of Turkic soldiers.

They fought and retreated. After walking through the gate openings that were more than ten meters long, the wounded generals and soldiers of Youzhou had already run a long enough distance.

At this moment, Li Qiu shouted, "Withdraw!"

Following his order, the others did not hesitate at all, and escaped smoothly after losing some of their hands.

……

On the other side, in Youzhou City, Glenn looked at the ruined, silent and empty Youzhou City in front of him.

Angry eyes are burning.

For them, this battle was very unsatisfactory.

First, when they attacked the city, they lost 9000 people.

Then in this street battle, facing more than 4000 cavalrymen of the Tang Army and 1 crossbowmen composed of half-grown children, they lost more than [-] people.

This kind of battle loss ratio is absolutely unacceptable and shameful!

And what's even more hateful is that after the city of Youzhou was broken, there were no ordinary people in it.

The hatred and anger they have been accumulating all this time can't be vented at all!

"Tang Jun, Luo family, you guys are really good!"

"Do you think you can escape the iron cavalry of my Turkic army by withdrawing all the people?"

"Pass my order down!"

"After resting for a while, the whole army was divided into several large units to attack in different directions. When they saw villages, they slaughtered them, and when they saw people, they killed them."

"In just two or three days, those people in Youzhou can't run very far."

"Whoever finds or kills Luo Sen and Luo Tong, kings of Beiping County, will be rewarded!"

"In addition, the remaining people, start to burn the city!"

"I want to destroy this Youzhou city! Destroy it forever!"

……

In the next day or two, it will be extremely cruel to the people on the land of Youzhou.

Just like what Glenn said, most of the people in Youzhou who escaped from the city were old and weak women and children. How far could they run without a carriage?

Most of them are hidden in the nearby villages.

At this time, the Youzhou army has also been completely dispersed.

Li Qiu, Luo Kexin and the others brought back less than [-] troops.

And most of them were injured.

There are another 600 people who have been following and protecting the old county king to evacuate, and they have lost contact.

These are the only two teams left in Youzhou City so far.

The rest scattered here are civilians or seriously injured soldiers.

The trend of this war still exceeded Li Qiu's expectations.

Over the years, there have been constant wars around Youzhou City.

Not only Turkic attacks, but sometimes civil strife.

With years of consumption, the army and people in Youzhou City have consumed too much.

In many families, the men are exhausted, and in the end they have to take out the only boys who are underage and fight.

The combat power of Youzhou army is far from as strong as Li Qiu imagined.

And the Turkic army was not as stupid or weak as Li Qiu expected.

On the contrary, it is still very strong.

In this battle, with 3000 troops, they defeated [-] Turks, more than twice as many.

Far lower than Li Qiu expected.

However, in the eyes of those generals of the Tang army, this kind of record is considered a miracle.

At present, after only the second street fight, Tang Jun is dead and there is no one left.

Even the implementation of Li Qiu's third-stage plan has become a luxury.

Looking at the blood-red moon in the night sky, Li Qiu tiredly closed his eyes.

War is far more cruel than what I imagined.

It wasn't until this moment that he realized, or began to doubt, how much water was in the exaggerated stories he had heard before.

The war scenes and layout are not very easy to write, the author is a little slow to update today, please forgive me

Chapter 72

It was only at this time that he understood the painstaking efforts of the old county king to let him go first during the great victory outside the city that day.

The old man fought the Turkic people all his life in Youzhou City.

The analysis of the current situation is too accurate.

Li Qiu could see that Youzhou City could not be defended.

But the old man has seen that, with his own troops and combat power, objectively speaking, it is impossible for him to achieve the result of completely annihilating the [-] Turkic army as Li Qiu said.

After escaping from the pursuit of the Turkic cavalry, he came to a relatively safe place.

Everyone is similar, they have overdrawn all their physical strength, and their spirit and body have reached their limits.

I sat on the ground and couldn't get up again.

Especially Li Qiu and Luo Kexin and other generals in the army exhausted everything.

Almost wearing armor, he fell asleep on the ground and fell asleep.

This night with a strong smell of blood passed away like this.

The next day, when Li Qiu opened his eyes and felt the endless exhaustion and pain in his body, he couldn't help but let out a soft sigh.

Afterwards, he moved his arm, but found that at some point, his arm was hugged by "Luo Tong", and he slept quite sweetly.

Looking at his fair, delicate and immature face, Li Qiu couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Although this kid has a bad temper, he is definitely a man, and it is really not easy.

He was originally a golden branch and jade leaf, but at such a young age, he is so willing to sacrifice his life, fearless of powerful enemies, and considerate of his subordinates.

Relying on his own strength, he supported the Luo family and the Youzhou army alone.

How can it not be worthy of admiration?

Afterwards, Li Qiu slowly withdrew his arm from "Luo Tong"'s arms, and found a cloak to cover him.

Check other people's injuries.

After reading it, it turned out to be worse than expected.

At present, there are nearly 900 people here in total.

More than 100 people were seriously injured and could no longer participate in the battle.

At this time, Luo Kexin also came to him with the same frown.

Behind her was the cloak that Li Qiu covered her body.

In fact, just when Li Qiu pulled out his arm, Luo Kexin was already awakened.

But when she realized something, she didn't move, so as not to embarrass herself.

Fortunately, in the current tragic situation, she can't give birth to any feelings.

Yes, only the deep anxiety and the sadness of the death of those Youzhou soldiers.

In the end, Li Qiu and Luo Kexin mobilized dozens of slightly injured soldiers and asked them to leave the team with the more than 100 wounded.

Escape from Youzhou towards the southeast.

According to Li Qiu's estimation, the ultimate goal of the Turkic army was to march southwest to meet Chang'an, so it should be safe for the wounded soldiers to flee southeast.

After sending them away, there were only 700 soldiers left around Li Qiu.

They had no better choice but to blindly search for the old county king and his whereabouts.

Besides, the boy's body was still carried by Li Qiu's side.

He wanted to fulfill his promise and send him back to his mother and sister.

……

When Li Qiu and the others were looking for the large army and the old county king, too many tragic scenes kept happening in the vicinity of Youzhou.

In a village near Youzhou City, villagers hiding here were discovered by a Turkic cavalry unit.

Afterwards, the group of Turkic people became fierce and charged in, howling.

Now those who hide here are old and weak women and children, and what awaits them is the inhumane killing and abuse of the Turkic people.

"Hahaha, old man, kill them all!"

"Woman, enjoy!"

"Children, two-legged sheep, delicious, catch them and eat them!"

For a time, this originally peaceful and peaceful village became a Shura field under the madness of the Turkic people.

One after another, the screams continued to be staged.

Women's cries for help, the sound of clothes being torn, cries of incomparable pain, and the bestial laughter of the Turkic people came continuously.

Facing the murder of their relatives and the brutal treatment of their mother and sister, those children never stopped crying in panic and fear.

Those old people were killed, women were also killed after being abused, and most of the children were taken back by the Turkic people to eat and enjoy.

Then another fire burned the village and turned it into ruins.

Such a tragic scene is not only in this village.

Instead, it happened continuously and continuously around Youzhou City.

The words cannibalism and two-legged sheep are recorded in history books like this: Turkic rebels cannibalize human flesh, which is called human flesh, or two-legged sheep.

This is the inhumanity of wild beasts, and it is not worthy of punishment!

The Turkic people call the old and thin men the fire of Rao, and the women who have little love are called Buxian sheep.

He called the child Hegulan, and Tongmu a "two-legged sheep".

Because children are soft, have more subcutaneous fat, and taste similar to other meats, they are also the favorite of this group of Turkic people who are devoid of humanity.
