The Turkic commander Geshu Han had arrived. Tang Xiao had heard of this man in his previous life, a famous general of the Tang Dynasty.
Although he didn't know if it was the same person, it was Tang Xiao's old acquaintance.
This person was eight feet tall and burly. He held a long saber in his hand and was brave and fearless in battle. He also reacted quickly to the changes in the battlefield.
However, his greatest strength was stability.
Knowing that he was here, there was no need to think about sneak attacks from today onwards.
Tang Xiao stood on the city wall, looking down at Geshu Han. The two of them laughed so hard that tears were streaming down their faces.
Geshu Han rubbed his bald head and pointed at Tang Xiao.
"Tang Shuai, long time no see!"
Tang Xiao laughed even more happily." Brother Geshu, you should drink less and find less girls. Look at your hair. It's all bald. Do you want to become a monk?"”
Geshu Han chuckled and opened his bloody mouth.
"Tang Shuai, you also know that this is my hobby.”
The two of them had met a few times in the capital and fought a battle in a brothel. They did not expect to get to know each other without fighting. Their relationship was not bad.
Of course, the two of them knew that sooner or later, they would fight each other. This was normal. They had been enemies for generations and would not rest until one of them died.
However, this did not affect the relationship between the two of them. However, these two were both professional soldiers and knew their responsibilities. No one would show mercy unless one of them surrendered.
However, this situation could not be seen.
Geshu Han had a valiant personality, and he didn't care about the situation. He asked rashly,
"By the way, Tang Shuai, have you been cured? Have some cistanche I sent you last time.”
Tang Xiao's face turned dark as he roared,
"Bullsh * t, you can't do it, you can't do it for the rest of your life!”
Geshu Han didn't mind this topic at all." That's right. I played too hard when I was young, and I really can't take it anymore. Don't you Han people have a saying: avoid illnesses and avoid doctors? Try it, and it'll be fine!”
The two laughed again.
Tang Xiao picked up the water bag and said loudly,
"Geshu, you are not allowed to drink in this battle formation. Today, I will use water as wine to toast you.”
Geshuna took out a wine bag from his pocket.
"Hehe, you Han people don't allow us to drink, so we don't care. Here's a toast to you. If you die, I'll collect your corpse.”
"Deal!"
At this moment, Luo Yi walked over." Tang Shuai, kill him. I'll go down with Zilong. We're confident!"”
Tang Xiao shook his head. This was the last time he would be soft-hearted.
The war began again.
Geshu Han truly lived up to his reputation as a famous Turkic general.
His goal was simple. He wanted to make sure that all the soldiers of Beiliang City could not rest.
It was summer, and the sun was shining for a long time. It was not until seven or eight o'clock in the evening that the sky turned dark.
The Turkic soldiers had been up at 4:30 in the morning to cook, and they had begun their assault at 5:00 a. m., continuing for more than ten hours.
There were many Turks, and they had gathered at least five or six hundred thousand men, but with the reinforcements sent by General Yang from Beiliang City, they only had sixty thousand men.
Exhaustion, endless exhaustion. Everyone was like this. Even Zi Long had lost a lot of weight in the past ten days.
Of course, the most important thing was that the nutrition could not keep up.
Luo Yi wanted to cut off the horse, but Tang Xiao stopped him. Unless it was absolutely necessary, the horse couldn't be moved.
Of course, no one wanted to. Warhorses were the best companions of cavalry, so who would be willing to part with them?
However, if this continued, the soldiers would not be able to hold on much longer due to the mental fatigue and the lack of nutrition.
It was already the nineteenth day, and Tang Xiao's eyes were dark. He was already a little thin, but now he was even thinner.
His white clothes looked a little loose on him. He had not washed up for half a month, and his body was already emitting a smell.
The white robe was no different from a rag.
Although Geshu Han was a steady soldier, Tang Xiao didn't dare to take the risk.
Zi Long and Luo Yi had already worked hard enough. As the commander of the army, Tang Xiao couldn't possibly rest too much.
In the past ten days, Tang Xiao had only slept for about ten hours. Fortunately, he was very strong. If it were anyone else, they wouldn't have been able to endure it.
Everyone knew that people were made of iron and food was made of steel. He, Zilong, Luo Yi, and the others had internal energy to protect themselves, so they could still hold on for a few more days. However, the soldiers lacked meat.
Fortunately, the citizens of Beiliang City had given all their chickens, ducks, and sheep to the Tang Army without taking a single cent.
Of course, in the end, they still gave him money.
In fact, money was useless now. Food and meat were the most expensive.
It was only with this meat that the soldiers could last a few more days.
One of Tang Xiao's guards had sneaked two eggs for Tang Xiao, and Tang Shuai was the one who had suffered the most.
However, Tang Shuai looked at the two eggs and patted the head of the guard,
"Add it to General Zhao and General Luo. Don't tell them that it's harder for them!”
The guard was unhappy. He had worked hard to get this.
Tang Xiao was hungry too, but he knew who needed it more.
Hold on, no data, no motivation
