The snow was getting heavier.
The white snow was littered with corpses, but they were all Turkic cavalry and infantry. Their blood had melted the snow, forming a small stream that flowed toward the Turkic army.
This scene was like hell.
"As expected of His Highness 'personal guard."
Liu Chengyu, who was on the city wall, heaved a sigh of relief.
Originally, he had thought that Li Yu had brought less than fifty thousand men, and that he might not be able to defeat the Turks.
But these fifty thousand people had wiped out fifty thousand Turks before they had even mobilized their full strength. Their fighting strength was truly terrifying.
"We can survive."
"It's really God's blessing that His Highness didn't hold a grudge against us. Instead, he came to save us. What a great kindness this is.”
Hearing this, the people around nodded in agreement.
When Li Yu came to Youzhou City at the age of 6, he was driven out and sent to the eastern military camp. However, Li Yu came here to save Youzhou City. Therefore, Zhang Tie felt a bit embarrassed.
"It's the decision of the officials and the major clans not to let His Majesty enter Youzhou City. Haven't we Youzhou citizens been transporting grain and fodder to the eastern military camp?”
Liu Chengyu shouted.
What he said was very reasonable, and the commoners cheered.
Li Yu came here to rescue them because the commoners in Youzhou City transported supplies to the military camp every day.
While the discussions on the city wall were ongoing, the battle continued.
"Brother, let me lead the army myself!”
Tuli Khagan stood up and volunteered.
The two Turkic Khans were civil and military. Khan Jie Li was in charge of planning, while Khan Tuli was in charge of participating in the war. The two worked very well together.
"Alright, go ahead."
Jie Li Khan nodded in agreement.
Afterwards, Tuli Khagan led the remaining Turkic soldiers into battle.
The Turkic army alone had sent a hundred thousand men to attack the city, but these hundred thousand people belonged to the Tiele tribe. There were also women and children among them, but these women and children could also ride horses and shoot arrows, so they were all soldiers.
Fifty thousand men had already been killed, but Tuli Khagan did not let the remaining fifty thousand charge forward. Instead, he led three of his most elite men, excluding the women and children.
These 30,000 people were all cavalrymen, and they were all armored. They were the personal guards of the tribal leader, and were much more powerful than the ordinary cavalrymen from before.
"Charge!"
Khagan Tuli roared as he personally stood at the front of the army and charged toward Li Yu's army.
However, as the thirty thousand soldiers neared, they split into three groups. One group charged straight at the Back Wei Army, while the other two split into two groups, charging at the Divine Arms Battalion and the burly crossbowmen from both sides.
"Small tricks!"
Bai Qi sneered and walked up to Li Yu. He cupped his hands and asked,"Your Highness, let me fight."
"Alright, lead the Golden Fire Cavalry to attack from the right wing.”
Li Yu ordered.
Then, the two of them moved together, each leading their cavalry from the left and right.
The Imperial Cavalry charged towards the Turkic cavalry on the left, but halfway through, Li Yu broke away from the group and charged towards Tuli Khagan.
"The enemy general is coming. Kill him with all your strength!”
Tuli Khagan's attention was immediately drawn, and he led his cavalry to charge at Li Yu.
Li Yu stood out in the snowy white, riding a crimson Flame Colt. He and his horse charged at the thirty thousand Turkic cavalry.
Although he was alone, Li Yu's aura wasn't small at all. He had a domineering aura that made him look like he would go against thousands of people.
"What is Your Highness doing?"
"Even if he's powerful, he can't be so reckless!”
"God, please bless His Highness.”
The people on the city wall of Youzhou felt their hearts clench as they watched the battle.
As a prince, Li Yu was charging at the enemy alone.
If something happened to him or he was captured alive, he would be completely finished.
Li Yu and the cavalry led by Tuli Khagan quickly clashed.
"Woo!"
The Flame Colt roared, its thick muscles exerting force, sending several Turkic riders flying.
Li Yuqi brandished his spear, occasionally thrusting and occasionally dancing, cutting a bloody path through the Turkic cavalry.
Khagan Tuli had been standing close to the front, and the fast cavalry had failed to stop Li Yu, so he had directly met Li Yu.
Lyu used the signature thrust of his spear, but Tuli Khagan had already anticipated this and quickly dodged.
Just as the tip of the spear brushed past Tuli Khagan's shoulder, the electric current on the tip of the spear numbed Tuli's body. He wanted to react quickly, but he couldn't control his body.
In the next second, Liyu changed his thrust to a horizontal sweep, and the sharp tip of the spear spun around Tuli Khan's neck.
"Wuuu…"
Tuli Khagan rode his horse for a few steps before his head and neck were separated.
"Kill all the enemies!"
Li Yu's spearhead lifted Tuli Khagan's head and roared.
"Kill them!"
The entire army came out, and the Divine Arms Battalion and crossbowmen fired at the enemy.
The Bei Wei Army took out the long knives on their backs and engaged the cavalrymen in melee combat.
Khagan Tuli's death had destroyed the morale of the Turks, and everyone had to either flee or be killed.
The battle was one-sided.
Jie Li Khagan looked at his brother's corpse and gritted his teeth in hatred, but he could only run.
At the end of the battle, the Turkic cavalry, along with the women and children of the Tiele Tribe, had captured a total of forty thousand people.
The remaining 60,000 people were all buried in front of Youzhou City.
In addition to the captives, there were also a large number of slaves in the Turkic camp. There were fifty thousand of them, and they had not been counted in the army of one hundred thousand.
"They were originally people of the Central Plains who were captured by the Turks.”
Li Yu ordered.
"Yes."
Baiqi agreed and asked,"Your Highness, what about those Turkic captives?”
"Let these captives clean up the battlefield and collect the heads of the Turkic soldiers. Then, when they are tired and weak, kill those who are taller than the wheels and cast them into the capital to suppress the barbarians.”
Li Yu ordered coldly.
"Yes."
Baiqi cupped his hands and accepted the order, then turned around and left.
The heads of the sixty thousand Turkic soldiers who had died in battle were all cut off by the captives and piled together to form the capital.
Just as the captives were about to get busy, thinking that their fate was no worse than being slaves, a few carriages were pushed over. At the same time, the Wei Army infantry surrounded everyone.
" What's going on?!"
"Are you going to kill us?"
“……”
The captives immediately became nervous.
"Nonsense."
Bai Qi was the first to step forward. He grabbed a man's hair and dragged him to the front of the wheels. When he saw that he was above the wheels, he immediately raised his hand and slashed down.
"Go and put his head on Jingguan.”
Baiqi ordered the next person.
The man was extremely afraid, but he still did as he was told. After placing the head of the man in front of him on the Jing Guan, he was also dragged over by Bai Qi to be beheaded.
Following that, dozens of soldiers walked out and killed the captives in the same way as Baiqi.
Although the captives wanted to live, they were aware of the huge gap between them and the soldiers of the Wei Army, so they simply sat on the ground and waited for death.
