Chapter 170: A difficult first day

Translation by the people who were led out.

The Eastern Turkic general immediately stopped smiling, raised his machete and shouted.

This sentence was not translated by the people who were led out.

The rampant laughter slowly stopped, and the atmosphere outside the city suddenly became depressing, and a surge of momentum rushed towards Fang Yuan and others.

Immediately, some of the cavalry stepped out and pulled the people bound by ropes to leave.

"Find someone who understands Eastern Turkic language."

Fang Yuan ordered with a cold face.

Xu Shihui will immediately send people to search for it.

Not long after, a young man dressed as a student from a state college arrived.

Fang Yuan knew this person, it was Ge You who Zhang Ji brought to him to apply for a loan for study.

At this time, the cavalry who left returned again, and the people who were taken away came back carrying a tree.

The tree is thicker than an adult's thigh and has been trimmed. It is estimated to be three or four meters long, and one end of the head has been shaved into a pointed shape.

“@#￥%……&!”

The East Turkic general roared.

"Let the two-legged sheep attack the city!"

"Those who disobey will be eaten!"

Translated by Geyou.

The East Turkic general's words fell.

Some people who were tied up by ropes were let go.

They were pushed to the front, there were about 500 people.

There are both men and women, old and young, but they are mainly men, mostly young and strong.

The people were full of fear, and under the shouts of the Eastern Turkic cavalry, they carried the trees up.

“@#￥%……&!”

The East Turkic general roared again.

"Siege the city!"

Geyou translated again.

People carrying trees take action.

But some people fell down due to exhaustion.

The next moment, an Eastern Turkic cavalryman rode out.

In the horrified eyes of the common people, he got off his horse and walked to the common man who fell to the ground.

"Spare your life, spare your life, spare your life..."

The fallen people knelt on the ground, kowtowed and begged for mercy.

His face was filled with fear, and there was no trace of blood on his face, as if the East Turkic soldiers in front of him were demons.

The East Turkic soldier had a cold face, grabbed the common man's hair, stopped him from kowtowing, and forcibly pulled the common man's hair to make him stand up.

"Death!"

The Eastern Turkic soldiers shouted angrily.

With the scimitar in his hand, he chopped off the common man's neck.

The cry for mercy stopped suddenly, and blood rushed out like a column of blood.

A human head was held by an East Turkic soldier, while the body had fallen to the ground.

It seems that due to the inertia of the body, the fallen body twitched slightly on the ground.

The enslaved people were frightened and retreated one after another, causing the trees on their shoulders to fall to the ground.

"This is what happens to those who disobey!"

Eastern Turkic soldiers raised their heads and shouted.

The heads faced the enslaved people.

The horrific death made them pale in fright and they retreated one after another.

"Siege the city!"

"Whoever falls, this is the fate!"

The Eastern Turkic soldiers shouted again.

The head in his hand hit one of them hard.

The man screamed and was so frightened that he almost left his body.

People nearby were also screaming and their faces were ashen.

After a while, the enslaved people carried the tree again.

On the city wall.

Fang Yuan and others were furious.

I was furious at the behavior of the Eastern Turkic cavalry.

"Beast!"

"Damn beast!"

"Chief Fang, do you want to release the arrow?"

Li Danqiu clenched his fists and his voice was cold.

Her face also turned a little pale, and she was shocked by what she saw.

This is the battlefield, a terrible battlefield. The enslaved people of the Tang Dynasty are no better than beasts.

What's even more disgusting is that they used compatriots from the Tang Dynasty to attack the city. Do they need to intercept them with bows and arrows?

As the commander-in-chief, Li Danqiu found it difficult to make up his mind in this situation and looked at Fang Yuan aside.

"Don't kill us, don't kill us, we are forced..."

The enslaved people below the city screamed in agony.

They carried the trees and ran towards the city gate in neat steps.

The sharp end is in front, rushing towards the center of the city gate.

"Lord Governor, be careful!"

Xu Shihui reminded with a heavy face.

The East Turks in front of us are cruel and terrifying beyond imagination.

If you don’t take human life seriously, your moral bottom line is lower than that of an animal.

They even used enslaved people to attack the city, so that they had to carefully consider whether to shoot arrows.

If this arrow is released, the person who was originally credited may be charged with harming his compatriots, and may even be impeached by the official.

Some people don't like to do things when they are full and they always like to find fault with others. There are many such people in all dynasties.

And there is another issue that needs to be considered, that is, there are about 500 compatriots under the city. If you kill the group that is carrying the tree, there will definitely be the next group that is resisting the tree.

Looking at the situation before us, at least about five hundred people must be killed to stop the Eastern Turk cavalry from attacking the city.

The war has not yet started, but your arrows are shot at your compatriots first?

"Can the city gate be blocked?"

Fang Yuan's voice was a little hoarse.

It contains overwhelming anger.

"Hold on for one day at most!"

The captain guarding the city said in a low tone.

Liaozhou City is a small city and has little defensive effect.

If there is no other action to prevent it, you can only hold on for one day at most.

"Let's discuss strategy first!"

Fang Yuan said with a cold face.

His brows were furrowed into a frown, and his eyes were as cold as knives, staring down.

Let’s not mention the consequences of killing these compatriots in front of us if we release arrows, but we must consider the reaction of the East Turkic cavalry.

They will have two choices.

One is to attack the city personally, and the other is to attack the county seat.

If he were a general, he would definitely attack the county town. After all, the county town is easier to capture.

In this way, the people of Liaozhou will still be trampled by the Eastern Turks' cavalry, which is not a situation Fang Yuan wants to see.

The best case scenario is that Liaozhou City will leave the Eastern Turk cavalry behind and wait for the imperial court to send troops to support them.

When he was sure that the Eastern Turkic cavalry was coming, Fang Yuan had already ordered someone to report to Chang'an City urgently.

"Boom!"

There was a knock on the door.
