In the end, it was the soldier who knew the Turkic language who patiently explained for a while. It was only then that the beggar Ahimama finally understood. Li Gao was just a high-ranking official in the Governor's Mansion of Khorasan. And there is no one in the cathar army who has the title of king.

Even Li Chengji, who has the highest status, is only the governor of Khorasan.

However, according to the habit of the steppe people, the governor of Khorasan was regarded as the king of the cathars.

It's a matter of habit! No matter how you explain it, it doesn't make sense. That soldier is impatient! After some tongue-in-cheek conversation, he found that he couldn't convince Aheima, who was unable to change his opinion, so he didn't bother to explain.

Then Li Gao asked someone to take them down and settle them. And targetedly, ask them about the exact time of the departure of the Khorezm army. Gradually, I learned that Timur had departed from this place nearly an hour earlier. And around him, more than 1,000 troops have been gathered.

This is not a tribal army with a loose personality! Rather, they are officers and soldiers who have been trained and have a certain degree of discipline and combat experience. In terms of actual combat ability, it is definitely not comparable to the tribal army.

The cathar army led by Ahura had been defeated, and the officers and soldiers who had feigned to form a tribal army were the most important main force. Many of the Guardian soldiers were also killed by them.

If the news of Ahura's death was the trigger for the defeat of the cathars. Then the combat effectiveness of the Khorezm official army was the last straw that crushed the apologetic army.

It was they who made the cathars who held out by the river all die on the battlefield. Because most of the soldiers stationed at the riverside at that time were Eagle Cavalry, Eagle Cavalry was extremely rare among the soldiers captured later.

After Li Gaozhan led the Khorezm military camp, he found nearly a thousand longbows of eagle cavalry. It's all captured on the battlefield! The original owner has become a cold corpse.

If it weren't for the tight time, Li Gao would definitely lead the apologetics to the valley where the apologetics were defeated.

It's just that right now, but I can't take care of it.

Later, the tribesmen such as the beggar Ahema went on to say that the Khorezm camp was breached. The armies of all tribes took advantage of the chaos and fled. His Budaq tribe has also scattered many people.

Later, halfway through, I caught up with the Khorezm official army! Unexpectedly, before he had time to rejoice, he was ordered by Timur to stop the enemy army.

Such an errand, they are naturally reluctant. But Timur had a good Khorezm official army, and they did not dare to disobey. Not long after Timur left, he selfishly thought of escaping into the mountains to avoid one or two.

As a result, the way was blocked by the villagers! When he wanted to retreat and find another way, he was blocked by the pursuing cathar captives on the other side of the river.

It was not until the arrival of the fully armed cathars that they chose to submit under the blood of their people.

After listening to the translation of the soldiers below, Li Gao immediately realized. It is no longer possible to completely annihilate the army of Khorezm. Because at the speed of cavalry, in an hour, it can already run a distance of nearly 100 miles.

Especially when throwing off the enemy, he let go of his hands and feet and tried his best to exploit the potential of the mount. Therefore, the cathars continued to pursue, and they could only watch Timur and others hide in Guchang City.

According to the advantageous terrain, it is difficult for the cathars to easily open the gate of Guchang City.

Fortunately, at the beginning of Li Qiqi, he didn't really want to completely annihilate the army of Khorezm. In the end, he only brought a thousand horsemen, and in terms of troops, he was obviously at a disadvantage. In addition, the officers and soldiers of Khorezm are not embroidered pillows.

It will not be like a paper tiger and lose as soon as it fights.

Although in the previous attack on the camp, the cathars had the upper hand. But Li Wei understood that it was the Guardian Army that used the Khorezm army to figure out the situation, so it was a mystery. As a result, the Khorezm soldiers thought that the apologists who came to the aid were very extensive.

When attacking the camp again, they deliberately attacked the area where the tribal army was stationed, which made people panic. As a result, the entire Khorezm barracks fell into a state of chaos.

Fishing in such troubled waters, the cathars captured the military camp in Khorezm in one fell swoop.

But there's also an element of luck. That was when they attacked the camp, and Timur was summoning the generals of the major armies, as well as the chiefs and chiefs of the tribes, into the tent to discuss important matters. As a result, when the cathars attacked, those Khorezm soldiers were like a plate of scattered sand, and there was no one to lead them.

Timur was afraid of the strength of the cathars, but did not dare to resist. He did not resist and left the camp with his army. The whole process of seizing the camp is extremely easy.

Although the morale of the Apologists was greatly shaken by this! But to a certain extent, it also made them underestimate the strength of Khorezm's army and despise it.

As the commander of the Apologetic Army, Li Gao saw this very clearly. If this is not the time, morale needs to be raised. He will certainly warn the officers and men of the whole army not to be contemptuous.

Just put up with this idea and let the cathars camp on the spot. It was also dark, and it was really not suitable for marching. If Timur had a heart, he would have set up some ambush on the road. The cathar is likely to be in danger.

When the result was already clear, Li Gao really didn't want to let the soldiers below lose their lives in vain.

At the same time, he ordered the doctor who accompanied the army to check the body of the escaped apologetic soldiers. If there is any injury or illness, treat it as soon as possible. Some of them returned to the camp to recount their experiences of fighting with the Khorezm army.

Thanks to the literacy policy vigorously promoted by Li Chengji at the beginning of the founding of the army. In the entire cathar army, there is no one who cannot read and write. Although it is not up to the level of poetry, it is still possible to write some popular sentences.

Moreover, because the level of literacy is related to their own promotion, almost none of the officers and men of the Guardian Army dare not fail to do so. Those centurions and heads of hundreds of households who relied on military merits, while trying to read and hyphenate themselves, deliberately urged the soldiers under them to be literate.

In the end, the level of literacy of the soldiers is also closely related to their commanders. If it is generally not high, the entire squad will be punished with a fine.

In this way, those who originally didn't know big characters and saw books were big and big. In three months, they successfully read out the literacy doctrine printed by the Governor's Palace.

And linguistically, it is still Chinese and Persian.

It's also extremely difficult to say. Many soldiers who have experienced literacy have regarded those years of hard study day and night and painstaking literacy and hyphenation as a very torturous nightmare.

At the beginning of the year, the cathars also used copying as one of the 'tortures' to punish recruits.

Therefore, Li Gao's order was not difficult for the soldiers at all. It's just that Li Dawei later demanded that everyone must summarize their own combat experience. Let many soldiers scratch their ears and cheeks.

The chief of the Budaq tribe, Beggar Aheima, was so surprised that he could not close his mouth when he saw that the cathars could really write. Especially after meeting the soldiers, who can generally write two completely different words, it is even more shocking.

The reverence for the cathars has also deepened.

In the end, the head of his clan is also blind.

Even if you look at the whole tribe, you can't find a single person who can read and write. Although in the tradition of the steppe people, tribal warriors, to mount and shoot people. The weak who can only read and write, and have no power to restrain the chicken, is looked down upon.

But in fact, as a tribal chieftain, he has a long-term vision than the average steppe person. People who know how to read and write have smarter heads.

Like the warlords sent to the steppe by Khorezm, they can read and write. Every year, when the tribe comes to collect tribute, it will do tricks on the accounts.

It's a pity that none of their tribes are literate, and they can't see anything wrong.

But there are some things he understands. For example, when the warden called them barbarians, it was a form of utter contempt.

For this reason, the Khan King of the Twelve Kipchak Divisions has many people who can read and write. Some powerful tribes also invited a gentleman to teach the children of the nobility to read and write. It's just that the strength of their Budaq department is average, and the grasslands they occupy are not abundant.

It is extremely difficult to eat and clothe every year. Where can you still ask for luxury, literacy and hyphenation. All along, I have always been fooled by the supervisors who collect taxes.

Even those merchants with low status who sell goods across the border will also rely on the text and ink in their stomachs to fool them in transactions. In particular, those animal skins that were originally very precious have become extremely cheap under the pressure of those black-hearted merchants.

When he came to Khorezm, he realized how shameful those merchants were. This made his impression of a businessman even worse.

When he was amazed by this, Yang Jier Zhenli, who became a prisoner, was also shocked by this!

He followed Timur Shuri, but he knew that few of the Khorezm soldiers could read and write. Even if you write your own name, there are very few. Not to mention knowing two characters and writing two completely different fonts. Looking at the flower puller, there are only a handful.

But it is these men who have nothing to do with literacy and hyphenation who have achieved this. Completely broken, his inherent view of soldiers. In addition, along the way, the military orders of the apologetics are prohibited, and the military discipline must be followed. In his heart, he couldn't help but feel a little awe of the cathars.

While he was thinking about this, the villagers who had been guarding the gate of the village, after seeing the cathars encamped on the other side of the river, opened the gate with interest under the orders of the gentry. An imam wearing a cloak and a patriarchal style. He personally walked to the riverbank and greeted the apologists led by Li Gao.

After receiving assurances that the cathars would not cross the river and would not disturb the village, they went back to the village to collect some melons, fruits, wheat, cattle and sheep to eat. Li Wei knew that this village had been plundered by the army of Khorezm, so he only collected some melons and fruits. The wheat, and the sheep and cattle withdrew.

Such a move made the entire village of Ahlabad lament that the cathars were the teachers of benevolence and righteousness. The imams in the village also asked Li Gao for the teachings of Puritanism.

At dawn the next day, the imam took the villagers with him and watched the cathars leave.
