Plural ending with the numbers?

One tricky thing about Turkish is that "we don't make the nouns plural with the numbers". 
What does it mean? 
If you say "iki adam"/two men, it is enough, we do not add ler/lar to "adam"-which is a noun. 
So,
iki uzun adam - two long men
üç çirkin kız - three ugly girls
dört şişman kedi - four fat cats
beş büyük, şişman ve tembel köpek - five big, fat and lazy dogs 
But,
uzun adamlar - long men , there is no number describing the noun, so we add the plural suffix.

I hope that you know the rule even better now !
