Datang Live Room

Although Yan Kai is not good at fighting now, he has many others.

More than 10,000 civilians, plus more than 8,000 Turkic prisoners.

With a total of more than 20,000 people, it would definitely be too late to build an ordinary city.

But now it's freezing here and it's by the river, so building an ice city shouldn't be a big problem.

We found a place by the river and asked someone to go down to the river first to get ice.

It can be any big or small. After taking it back, it will be built up according to the city wall area designated by Yankai.

The river water exposed after the ice is taken is poured directly on the ice walls built with ice barriers.

Of course, the ice taken from the river is definitely not enough.

Yan Kai also asked people to pile up the thatch used to feed the animals, some firewood, etc., all together like a wall.

Then water it too.

After the water poured on it, it quickly began to freeze on the outside of the thatch and branches, and then it became like a wall.

A large pot was set up inside, and the snow water was continuously boiled and then put aside.

The speed of more than 20,000 people is still very fast.

The Turkic slaves didn't want to do it, but after Cheng Hualiang stepped on the ground and chopped off a few heads, everyone became obedient.

In just one day and one night, a city wall nearly three meters high, more than three hundred meters long and about 70-90 centimeters thick appeared in front of everyone.

Of course, such a city wall does not have parapets, battlements or the like.

Yan Kai and the others don't need these. When there really is a fight, they can just make some mounds of dirt behind them, bring boxes and other things, and stand on them to fight.

Then Yan Kai found Huang Rong: "We will lose if we defend for a long time. We still have to tell Datang our position. Do you think the Tang army will pursue Jieli Khan's army?"

Huang Rong nodded and said, "I heard that the leader is Lord Li Jing. He will definitely send troops to pursue us."

"Then please find reinforcements!" Yan Kai looked at her and said.

"Me?" Huang Rong was stunned and still wanted to speak.

Yan Kai said: "This journey is extremely dangerous, and the lives of tens of thousands of us Tang Dynasty people are all in your hands."

Huang Rong thought for a while and gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, then you must hold on until I come!"

Yan Kai gave her something, and then asked her to take a few people, one person and three riders, toward the west.

Yan Kai continued to stay and build the city, not only building the city, but also some of the more than 10,000 people who knew basic craftsmanship.

Yan Kai also asked them to make a lot of things to defend the city.

After about six days, a simple ice city appeared.

Recently, there have been more and more Turkic Qingqi nearby. Li Anyan took 20 people out of the city for patrol the day before yesterday and was entangled by a group of Qingqi.

However, the enemy was no match for them, allowing them to run back easily.

But it will not be so easy to go out on patrol later, which also means that the Turkic army is coming.

Yan Kai simply asked Li Anyan and the others to stay guard in the city, and he could just send out the drone and keep an eye on it from the sky.

If the Turks show up with an army of 10,000 or 20,000 people, they will definitely not be able to hide it from the eyes of heaven.

After three days of uneasiness, the Turkic army finally appeared a few miles away.

"Let him go!" Yan Kai said in a deep voice.

There were more than 8,000 slaves in the city. At this time, they also noticed something and began to feel restless.

Yan Kai did not intend to kill them, so he left only thin clothes for everyone, and then drove them all out at this time.

These people are all hidden dangers if they stay, so it is better to leave these big troubles to Jieli Khan.

All the slaves came from various tribes, and it was up to Jieli Khan to take care of them when they were driven out.

If you care, he originally only had 20,000 troops, but suddenly there were 8,000 more slaves, and the supplies would definitely be tight.

But no matter how impossible it is, many of his 20,000 troops are soldiers from these tribes.

If he doesn't care, his military morale will be lost, and it will be difficult to lead the team.

The way to drive them out is also very simple. There are some slopes built with wooden boards in the ice city, and these slaves can just jump out after going up.

They were lucky if they landed safely. If they lost an arm or a leg, it would naturally be left to Jieli Khan to deal with it.

After driving away all the Turkic slaves, Yan Kai and the others took a deep breath, the real battle was about to begin.

The slaves crawled and stumbled outside.

Not far away, he met Jieli Khan who was leading his army.

Sure enough, just as Yan Kai and the others thought, they saw these cold and shivering slaves.

Jieli Khan also had a headache, so he could only ask his men to settle them down first.

It was impossible to attack the city. It would be dark just to set up camp and settle the prisoners.

"Damn the Tang people!" Jieli Khan complained to Tang Jian and others in his tent.

"You Tang people are despicable, too despicable!"

Tang Jian and others were now convinced that Jieli Khan did not dare to kill them, otherwise how could he entertain them with good wine and good food every day under such circumstances.

Hearing what Jieli Khan said, Tang Jian smiled and said, "Build ice as a city. I would like to know which general of our Tang Dynasty is here."

"What a damn general, I heard he's just a teenage boy!" Jieli Khan said unconvinced, but felt a little chilly in his heart.

A little-known teenager in the Tang Dynasty turned his entire eastern rear upside down.

There are also incredible methods such as building a wall of ice.

The more than 8,000 Turkic slaves who were acquired were released at will.

Jieli Khan's inner evaluation is that he is decisive in killing and full of wisdom.

It's just such a talent that Li Shimin will definitely pay more attention to, and he will also be more determined to break through the Tang people among the prisoners in Bingcheng as bargaining chips.

The next day, Jieli Khan began to send troops to attack the city. Who knows when the pursuers will arrive?

In his opinion, for such a short city, even without siege equipment, he still had 20,000 troops, including 10,000 Tiger Divisions.

It should take one day to defeat it.

The Turkic army still used the old method. After entering the range of their bows and arrows, they started shooting towards the city.

At the same time, someone quickly rushed towards Bingcheng.

Bows and arrows began to fall into the ice city. At this time, half of the people were hiding in tents.

Outside their tent, Yan Kai had already asked them to lay a layer of sand, and then slowly watered it at night.

All the tents are like an ice shell.

The falling arrows could only make a snapping sound, but they could not hurt anyone at all.

The other half of the people were more powerful. They and the soldiers Yan Kai brought at the beginning were hiding under the ice wall. Because of the angle, the arrows could not hit them.

"Get ready!" Yan Kai shouted with a loudspeaker.
