Chapter 493: The Enemy Retreats West
Of course, if there are people who want to stay, they can also divide the land and give them a place to stay. And special mention! If you go to Sindhshire. Not only will there be more fields, but they will also receive cattle, sheep, tents and other things distributed by the government.
It's a great thing to get your stomach shut! And with a tent, you can avoid the trouble of sleeping in the wild in the early days. So many Khorezm soldiers are faintly moved.
It is also that most of these people are Kipchaks from the Kipchak steppe! In the early days, they were all hunting for a living. Later, after joining the army of Khorezm, although he no longer hunted. But the safari skills that have been exercised since childhood are still not left behind.
Therefore, Khorasan's arrangement is still very suitable for those Khorezm soldiers who are tired of the battlefield. And for those disabled soldiers, Khorasan also took into account. It can be said that it has been benevolent and righteous.
So as soon as Ali Schilled finished speaking, the crowd began to chatter. Seeing that most people were moved, Ali Hirred revealed. If the performance is acceptable, you can also join the border army or the cathar army in Khorasan.
That's a big deal!
The super high treatment of the Khorasan soldiers has now become the most enthusiastic discussion among the generals of all forces. Some governors or lords of state, in order to win the loyalty of their subordinates, had to increase the treatment of military generals.
Mahamat also made some adjustments to the generals' salaries. However, due to the limited financial resources of Khorezmo, the changes after the adjustment are not large. On the contrary, this made some soldiers complain in their hearts.
Although they had thought about being defeated by the Cathars, they had never thought of becoming a member of the Cathars. As for the border army, it is also one of the apologists in their understanding. Therefore, as soon as Ali Hirrid's words came out, it became the news that all the soldiers were most concerned about.
They spoke out one after another, asking if this matter was serious. The soldiers, who were still depressed because they were captives, were also much more excited.
Some Khorezm generals looked at it and couldn't help but feel a little sad.
After all, as soon as their lord died, the soldiers were immediately overwhelmed by the many benefits of Khorasan. No matter how you look at this, it feels strange.
But that's what happened!
It makes the Khorez mold stand out, which is so unpopular.
However, there were some soldiers who were reluctant to surrender out of loyalty to Khorezm or respect for Ali Silvad. They drew their swords and followed in the footsteps of Ali Silvad.
At this point, the army sent by Khorezm to the river was completely destroyed. Two of the most important emirs were also killed in the battle. Although they were all suicidal, they seemed unusually iron-clad. But this does not change the fact that Khorezm was defeated.
So you can expect it!
When the news spreads in Khorezm, it will cause a shock no less than the death of the Sultan.
What's more, the Khan of the Khanate of Khamli was also killed in this battle! And according to the news deliberately released by Khorasan, Akpu fell to Kereh and was still killed by a knife. The whole body was also fed to the dogs.
So dead! It's a shame for the whole country. Those small tribes who are attached to the Kangli tribe will also be detached. If the momentum is not restored as soon as possible, then the end of the Khamli Khanate is just around the corner.
And it doesn't take Khorasan's hands yet!
Because those subordinate tribes who are ready to move will definitely not let go of this opportunity to replace them! That's the rule of the steppe! There are no long-lasting clans! Once the weakness is revealed, there will definitely be a large-scale annexation of the watching clans.
If it was Khorezm's heyday, it might still be a little deterrent to those tribes. But Khorezm was defeated in the river, and those tribes would not take Khorezm's deterrence seriously.
With this in mind, the Khamli Khanate was only afraid of a bad fate. The Kipchak steppe will also usher in another round of chaos.
These are good things for Khorasan. Because of the chaos in the Kipchak steppe, it will only cause them internal losses. Khorasan strikes again, and they can be broken individually.
It was at this time that the city of West Keys. Tayang Valley received a report from Ba Rahei, saying that it was the Khorezm army outside the city, and suddenly withdrew. I don't know if it was Khorezm's trick to lure the enemy, so the generals defending the city did not dare to act rashly.
"When did Khorezm leave?" Looking at the lonely church outside the city and the white ground that was obviously trampled on, Tayang Valley spoke up. That place was originally a town! After Khorezm came, only one church remained.
Not only that, but there are several small towns around Westkey City. Although the scope is not large, there are thousands of households. In the past, it was a grass market full of merchants, but nowadays, there are only a few wooden stakes and bare earthen walls.
The wind blew, and the smoke and dust gradually covered it.
"An hour to go! They burned all the baggage and rode lightly. ", Hachirai said truthfully.
This is sobering news.
Because Khorezm was arrogant a day ago. With that posture, it is clear that the city will not be broken. But today, it just retreated inexplicably. In retrospect, it's really puzzling.
Yarahei didn't know the specific reason, so he responded: "The general, did you send troops to take a look?" ”。
Tayang Gu thought for a while, nodded and said, "Okay!" You gather 5,000 soldiers and horses and follow them. Remember not to follow too closely. If Khorezm fights back, the professor is not allowed to return to the city immediately. ”。
Ba Rahei answered, and went down to order the soldiers and horses.
Soon, the long-closed gate of Xijian City slowly opened. A large array of soldiers and horses rushed out, hurrying in the direction of Khorezm's army.
Along the way, Barahei noticed that the Khorezm army was in a hurry. Even if you find out about their snooping, as long as you don't get too close, you don't ask and ignore them. Barahei followed him until he was near Khujand.
At this moment, the Khorezm army, which had been marching fast in front, suddenly stopped. At first, he thought that Khorezm wanted them to be disadvantaged, so he immediately led his troops and fled. But after escaping for nearly half an hour, the spies who stayed behind returned to the road.
It is said that Khorezm encountered a large army blocking the way and had to stop.
"Do you know where the army that stands in the way is coming from?" , Ba Ra said in a deep voice.
"The small ones are far away, and they can't really be seen. But there was a crescent moon on that flag, and it should be a cathar. The spy replied.
Yarahei listened and said suspiciously, "Can you see clearly?" Is that the crescent banner of the cathars? ”。
The spy immediately responded, saying that he had seen it for real. Combined with the current chaos in Daliao, the only army that can stop Khorezm is indeed the Guardian Army. So Yarahei listened, and there was no doubt that it was the cathar.
