Seeing that they were safe and sound, Li Dawei was also reassured. In the end, these more than 600 soldiers are all veterans who have followed him since Bancheng County. In terms of combat effectiveness, it is naturally not comparable to those new recruits who have just joined.

If it is lost here, it is really not worth it.

He immediately dismounted, and personally picked up Abu Laiz.

This move flattered Abu Lais. The captives who escaped with Abu Rais also had the feeling that 'those who are confidants die'.

But this is not the time for gossip. Li asked them briefly about how they were captured, and after learning that they didn't know where the Ahura people were, his face showed a little regret.

Having captured the camp of Khorezm's army, he ordered the Cathar to find Ahura. Even if you are dead, you must see the corpse. But from the mouths of the Khorezmians, it was learned that Ahura had disappeared after being cut off his horse by Timur.

It was also when it was too dark and there was a war. Before Timur could cut off Ahura's head, he was desperately protected by the guards and fled. Later, Timur destroyed the situation and announced that Ahura was dead. As a result, the cathars were in turmoil and fell into defeat.

Upon hearing the news, the cathars secretly prayed that Ahura would not die. Li Gao also misses this veteran, so he pays special attention to his news. Originally, I thought that Ab Lais and the others, who had fallen into the hands of the enemy, would know something, but after hearing their answers, I couldn't help but be a little disappointed.

But there's no time to grieve them right now! Li Wei quickly put away the worries in his heart and asked the cathars to deal with the enemy in front of him with all their might.

After receiving the order, the cathars instantly lined up along the riverbank. A soldier with a loud voice and a Turkic language was also elected. This is because the Kipchak Twelves are descendants of the Turkic people, and their quarters are relatively closed. Therefore, in terms of language, the original Turkic habits are still maintained.

This is the most different place from the Seljuk and Huihe people who went south and were returned to the country long ago.

He took a deep breath and shouted loudly to the Budak department opposite: "Listen to the enemy on the other side! There is no way back for you! If you disarm and surrender, our head of ten thousand households will be merciful and spare your dog's life. But if you resist stubbornly, there is only a dead end. ”。

Although many soldiers could not understand what he was saying. But after seeing Si Li's gesture, everyone still took the bow and shot the arrow for the first time.

"Quickly hide ---", Beggar Aheima's face immediately changed greatly. The archery of the cathars, he had already learned in the previous battle of the river valley. At that time, he went south with him to fight for the Khorezm. Under the archery skills of the cathars, the entire army was almost wiped out.

The entire tribe had 2,000 sons, and most of them were killed and wounded. Those who were still alive also suffered arrow wounds of varying severity. In the steppe, such a tribe has only the result of the seizure of pastures and the annexation of the tribes.

So when the battle was over, the chieftains of the Tar Khan tribe renounced their position in the clan. Lead the people who are still alive and join the army led by Timur himself. The whole people also accepted the reorganization of Timur's annihilation.

Although the old and weak women and children who remain on the grassland will be protected by the Khorezm people. But the Tar Khan is already equivalent to being annexed.

After all, the Talkhanate tribe dominated by the Khorezm people is no longer the Tarkhanate tribe of the Tarkhans themselves.

If it weren't for the fact that before the war, Beggar Aheima had learned some of the routines of the Khorezm merchants. gave some generous gifts to Timur's subordinates. So that on the battlefield, it is necessary to avoid taking the lead.

I can't say, the one who suffered heavy casualties and ended up being annexed was the Budaq Ministry.

In recent days, when I think about it occasionally, I can't help but be frightened. So as soon as he saw the cathar's big killer, he instinctively let the tribal sons dodge.

But near the valley was a bare desert. When the water rises, it is often flooded. Over time, it was abandoned. Farther afield, there are wheat fields on relatively high ground.

If there had been no war, the wheat would now be full of ears of wheat. It's a good time to harvest. But after Khorezm's army passed through this place, the villagers fought for their lives. The trampled wheat fields had to be harvested in advance to satisfy hunger.

So the whole field was bare. If you want to find a place to hide, it's hard to find it. Beggar Aheima and the others could only lie on the ground, begging for archery not to fall on them.

Slimali couldn't hear their prayers, so he only shouted the word 'put' in a cold voice. Thousands of arrows came out of the hands of the cathar soldiers.

The sound of whizzing through the air immediately resounded throughout the battlefield. The night, which was already darker, was even darker.

Such an offensive made the villagers who were guarding the wall jump off the wall in fear.

The bonfires burning on the shore were also deflected in unison by the strong wind carried by the arrows. The people of Budak lying on the ground closed their eyes in fear, frightened and desperate.

The next second, poof... The sound of arrows shooting into flesh was so dull and so clear. On the banks of the river, where only heavy gasps could be heard, it was so different. Some of the Budaks opened their eyes and saw several arrows stuck in the clearing in front of them.

But it's lucky!

More than that, but unfortunately. Under the dense rain of arrows, almost seventy percent of the Budaks were hit by arrows. Among them, most of them were injured and did not die for a while.

Bursts of screams and wails came out almost in unison. Some have their hands nailed, some have their feet nailed, some have their bodies nailed, and some have their heads nailed. What's more, seven or eight arrows were nailed to his body, and he became a hedgehog alive.

Some of the arrows shot farther, stunningly into the earthen walls of Ahrabad. frightened many villagers who pretended to be tough, and they all fell from the wall with weak hands and feet. For a while, he was frightened.

Compared with them, the Budaq Ministry, which is the main target, no longer has the slightest intention of resisting.

Li Qi also took a longbow with his own hands! I've used it before, but it's not that much. Even if there is a crossbow that saves the strength of drawing the bow, there is still a lot of strength to push the bow and crossbow. Li Wei pushed a few times unfamiliarly, and only then did he regain the feeling of pulling the bow before.

Adjusting the angle again, he aimed the sharp arrow at the head of the beggar Ahima.

Then he heard a long whooshing sound, and the long arrow galloped away.

It is also thanks to the moisture of the river that a lot of trees and grasses have grown on this land. In order to better determine the target, the village of Ahrabad, the Budaq department, and the escaped cathar captives all took local materials and lit several bonfires.

So that the banks of the river that are not wide are as bright as day. It was also when Li Qi was shooting an arrow that he noticed that his arrow was aimed at himself.

Without him shouting, the Budak warriors who were still alive came over in unison. The guards beside him threw him down as soon as possible.

As a result, when the arrow came, it only hit one tribal warrior in the cheek.

Seeing this, Li Wei shook his head a little disappointed. Secretly sighing that the longbow can only be perfectly controlled by the Eagle Cavalry, who train day and night.

However, the consequences of this arrow are still very gratifying. The chief of the Budak tribe, Beggar Aheima, pushed away the guards of the tribesmen. Ignoring the danger, he came to the bank of the river alone. At the same time, he took off his hat, knelt on his knees, and prostrated himself to perform the prostration.

This is the rule that the weak of the steppe show their submission to the strong! It's simple, and it's straightforward.

As a result of the killing of these tribal armies, the impact on Timur was not great. After all, Timur relied on the Khorezm official army, which was formed and directly under his command. Therefore, after Li Qi saw that Beggar Aheima expressed his intention to surrender, he did not let the cathars shoot arrows again.

Holding back his panic and uneasiness, he didn't hear the sound of the arrow breaking through the air, and he couldn't help but be moved that he was still alive. Then he stood up and crossed the river no more than a foot deep. This is an above-ground river that flows from the Narud Mountains, and the volume is not large. It flows from southwest to northeast, eventually joining the Karashav River, a dozen miles away.

Therefore, although the bridge was destroyed, it was extremely easy to wade through the water. When the tribal soldiers saw the actions of the beggar Aheima, they all laid down their weapons and took off their hats. Follow his footsteps and cross the creek.

Slimali was afraid that they would blow up, and wanted to stop them from approaching. But Li Gao shook his head and let them come over. Because he knew that the tribesmen who died just now had made the Budaq Department deeply realize how hard the cathars' fists were.

Although they were still worried, Li Mali and the others did not dare not listen to Li Gao's words. He had no choice but to put down his longbow and spear, and stared viciously at the wading tribal army.

"Great King! On behalf of the Budaq Ministry, I am driven by eternal life for you! As soon as he came to Li Weiwei, he bowed loudly. Some of the tribes who followed also shouted in unison, 'Eternal life is driven for you.'"

It's just that they didn't expect it!

As soon as he said this, the apologists who knew the Turkic language all burst out laughing. It's like encountering some funny and interesting thing, and none of them can maintain their original solemn color.

Although Li Qi still remained calm, his face also showed a little can't help but smile. Then he said in a deep voice, "I am not their king!" ”。

Beggar Ahimama was a little confused! In his opinion, these people all listen to Li Qi, and it is obvious that only a noble king has this qualification. This is the same as their tribe, all the people, can only listen to him.

In addition, when Timur came to Nishapur's aid, he only said it briefly. The newly rising cathars of the Land of the River have defeated the Sultan of Khorezm. And in the land of the Seven Rivers to the north, there is a powerful empire to rely on.

Now it is necessary to restore Khorasan, an extremely important land of abundant resources, and become the ruler of this land. Therefore, Beggar Aheima subconsciously thought that it was Li Chengji who took the apologists to recruit in person.

In the grasslands, this kind of thing is commonplace!

With such thoughts, I made a joke in a daze.
