The pursuit of the Thorn Mati was carried out all night, and it is not known how many of the Thorn Mati were killed, nor how many fled back to the sweat tent. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

At dawn, early in the morning of April 11, the pursuing Western Qin army and the Kimak army returned one after another, and the Western Qin army and the Kimak army returned with a large amount of booty, including war horses, weapons, bows and crossbows, armor, gold and silver, cattle, sheep and horses.

The camp of the army is located near yesterday's battlefield, the camp tent in the camp is arranged in an orderly manner, hidden mysteries, many soldiers of Zou headquarters on the battlefield next to it are cleaning the battlefield, according to the rules set by Zhao Ziliang in advance, whoever captures the spoils of war will belong to whomever they want, yesterday's battle was mainly fought by the army of Zou headquarters, so all the spoils on the battlefield belong to Zou headquarters.

After breakfast, the soldiers of the Western Qin Army and the Kimak Army who were in charge of the pursuit successively reported the process and results of the pursuit, and all the news was summarized to the marching Sima Chen Qing, who then asked the army scribes to make statistics, and quickly came to a conclusion.

Chen Qing immediately reported to Zhao Ziliang, "My Majesty, according to the statistics of the spoils brought back by the returning soldiers and the results of the battle, the rout of the Thorn Ma Ti Division who fled back was less than three hundred horsemen, and they were all scattered!" The last general decided that it was time to divide his forces to attack the settlements of the various parts of the Thammati tribe, annihilate their living forces, prevent them from resurrecting, and prevent them from asking for help from other surrounding khanates and tribes! ”

Zhao Ziliang nodded after hearing this, touched his short beard and thought for a moment before looking at Xuan Eighteen, and asked, "Xuan Eighteen, is there any news from the Huo Kan Department of the Fifth Legion?" ”

Xuan 18 stood up and hugged his fists and said: "Back to the king, there is no news of the Fifth Legion for the time being!" ”

Zhao Ziliang frowned and said: "No, the battle on our side ended yesterday afternoon, and we were chasing and killing the rout all night yesterday, even if the other half of the men and horses of the Ma Ti Department came cautiously to sneak attack and walked too slowly, there should be no news now, you immediately send someone to cross the river to investigate the situation, and report it immediately as soon as there is news!" ”

Xuan 18 was about to agree, when an eagle roared in the sky outside, and Xuan 18 immediately said to Zhao Ziliang: "King, there must be news from the Fifth Legion, and the last general will go out and have a look!" ”

Zhao Ziliang hurriedly raised his hand: "Hurry, go and return quickly!" ”

"Yes!"

After only a cup of tea, Xuan 18 returned to Zhao Ziliang with a small note: "King, it is really the news of the Fifth Legion!" It turned out that the other half of the Thorn Ma Ti Department was responsible for raiding our army from the flank, in order to hide the tracks, they did go a little slower, they only entered the ambush range of the Fifth Army yesterday afternoon, after the battle started, the leading general of the Thorn Ma Ti Department knew that the success was short, and if he fled, he would inevitably be hunted down, and the end would be even worse, so he simply took his three thousand fine horsemen to resist to the end, he organized his cavalry to gather together and assemble into a dense formation, and General Huo Kan led the troops to rush over and couldn't break them up. After rushing twice in a row, they had to besiege their regiments, and the other half of the men and horses of the Answering Horse Response Department were extremely brave, all of them were not afraid of death, and the battle was fought until dusk, although they killed a lot of people who answered the Assassin Horse Division, but our losses were not small, seeing that it was dark, and the night battle was not easy to fight, so General Huo Kan ordered to expand the encirclement, let the soldiers retreat, and open the distance from the enemy! The enemy broke through several times at night but were blocked by our army, until dawn this morning, General Huo Kan thought of using encirclement tactics to attack, the enemy gathered together as solid as a rock, not easy to break through, but the target is large, and our army is surrounded by the periphery, scattered, the target is small, so General Huo Kan personally led the soldiers to ride horses around the enemy to run in circles, while circling the circle while firing arrows to the enemy, the enemy army is not to be outdone, with bows and arrows to counter our army, but they are attacked by a large area, so the arrow rate is much higher than our army, The encirclement tactics lasted an hour before all the enemy forces were annihilated, and none of the enemy troops surrendered! Our army also suffered more than 800 casualties! Now the Fifth Army is cleaning up the battlefield, and this is a battle briefing written by General Hokan! ”

A small piece of paper was densely written with flyy boys, and it was written very succinctly, but the command and combat process were written very clearly and smoothly.

After reading it, Zhao Ziliang instructed Zhao Lei: "Lei'er, you go and inform Badath and Vechier to come over to discuss matters!" ”

"No!"

Soon, Baddas and Vechiel arrived one after another, and Zhao Ziliang greeted the two: "The two khans, please sit down, have you all had breakfast?" ”

"I eat, thank you for your concern!" After the two finished speaking, they took their seats.

Zhao Ziliang nodded and said, "Let me tell you two a good news first, my Fifth Army defeated the other half of the elite cavalry of the Thorn Ma Ti Division who came to sneak attack fifty miles on the other side of the river yesterday afternoon, and wiped out them all after a whole night of fighting!" ”

King Veil, King of Kimak Khan, rejoiced: "In this way, the main force of the Answering Horse Thi Department has been completely solved, and we don't need to worry about it anymore!" ”

Badasi's mood was not too high, and he was also a native of Pecheneg and his brother, so he just saluted Zhao Ziliang and said, "Congratulations to the king's command for a great victory!" ”

Zhao Ziliang understood Ba Dasi's feelings, he nodded, and said: "The soldiers of our army who pursued and killed the rout last night have all returned, according to statistical analysis, only no more than three hundred horsemen escaped, they are sleepy and tired, and they are extremely scattered when they escape, and it will take some time to escape to answer the sweat tent of the Thorn Horse Tribe, this king thinks that he can't give their whole clan a chance to move away and breathe, and immediately sent several soldiers and horses to attack their sweat tent and settlements in various places, once and for all, I don't know what the two think?" ”

For Baddas, things have come to this point, and it is in vain to regret it, so he can only continue to do it, so he said to Zhao Ziliang: "I am willing to obey the king's dispatch!" ”

From the departure to the present, the soldiers and horses of the Zou headquarters and the Western Qin army have fought a big battle with the Thorn Ma Ti Department, and they have captured a lot of money, a large number of weapons and armor, food, gold and silver, and herds of cattle, sheep and horses make Vivich extremely greedy, but only a part of his command participated in the pursuit yesterday night, and the capture was not very much, the Kimak army did not participate in the big battle, except for the very little booty obtained from the pursuit last night, there was no other capture, he was eager to immediately send troops to attack the settlement of the Thorn Matti Department, After hearing Zhao Ziliang, he immediately stood up and saluted Zhao Ziliang and said, "Great King, if you want to attack the sweat tent and other settlements of the Thorn Mati Tribe, my warriors of Kimak are willing to take the lead!" ”

Badas didn't know that Vecchier had defeated the main force of the Thorn Matti and captured a large amount of booty, so he immediately stood up and objected: "No, I have already pleaded with the king to settle the matter of the Thorn Matti Tribe, and our Zou headquarters is responsible for settling the affairs of the Thorn Matti Tribe, this is a dispute within our Pecheneg people, please don't interfere with others!" ”

Where is Vecchier willing to take a break? Although there is no loss of troops without fighting, but sitting on the empty mountain, the army consumes countless grains and grass every day outside, although he is the king of a country, but he can't withstand such consumption, he must fight, otherwise the army under his command will eat him poor only by eating the old book, he immediately said: "Badasi, you are a full man and you don't know that a hungry man is hungry, your men and horses have captured so much booty, even if you have lost some men and horses, but you have captured and captured so much, not only do you not lose money, but also make a lot of money!" It has been two months since the departure of my Kimak army of 20,000 horses, and I have not fought a single battle, and I eat idle food every day, even if I have money, I can't afford to eat like this, and I Kimak people must participate in the war against the Khan tent and settlement of the Thammadi tribe! ”

Baddas said arrogantly: "If I say no, I can't do it!" ”

"I'm going to answer the tents and settlements of the Thorn Matti today, what can you do?"

Badath and Vechier carried it, and Zhao Ziliang shouted: "Enough! You both sit back! ”

Baddas and Vecchier glared at each other, snorted coldly, and turned to each walk back to their seats.

Only then did Zhao Ziliang say to Badasi: "Leader of Badasi, this king has indeed promised you that your department will solve the people and horses of the Taunting Ma Ti Department!" But this promise has been fulfilled, and your troops have defeated the main force of the Thorn Matti Division, and the Thorn Horse Response Department has no troops to use! What we have to do now is to finish the matter, my Fifth Legion annihilated another part of the Answering Horse Troop yesterday, and there are some captures, but the Kimak army has not yet fought a battle, and the Vich Khan also said just now, the warriors of Kimak are eager to fight, eager to win a big battle and get the spoils of war! How can we discourage their desire to fight? We've already eaten meat, and this king can't let them drink the northwest wind with us every day, right? Gotta give them some soup, right? You tell me? ”

Baddas: "But ・・・・・・"

Zhao Ziliang raised his hand to stop him from continuing, "This king knows what you want to say, and he understands your feelings!" But you should understand that since the Thammadi have sat down to betray their brothers, they are no longer your brothers, but enemies of life and death! And our Xiqin and Kimak are allies of your Zou headquarters, isn't the relationship between allies as close as the enemy? ”

After being silent for a long time, Badas raised his head and said, "Okay, King, I can agree to let the Kimak Army and the Western Qin Army participate in the final battle against the Thorn Ma Ti Tribe, but the sweat account of the Thorn Ma Ti Department must be handed over to my Zou Headquarters to settle it!" ”

Zhao Ziliang turned his head and said to Vechier: "Vechier Khan, the settlement on the left bank of the Yayik River will be handed over to your ministry to solve, and the settlement on the right bank will be solved by my Western Qin army. ”

Veil's immediately saluted and said: "The king is fair, and Xiao Khan is convinced, so it will be decided according to the king's arrangement!" ”

Zhao Ziliang immediately said: "That's good! Without further ado, after an hour, we will send out our troops and horses to settle the tents of the Thammati and the settlements in various places, so that they will not have a chance to escape and respite! However, this king has said first, all departments are not allowed to attack each other for the spoils of war, whoever makes the first move, this king will be held responsible, this king's dragon guard will be responsible for supervision, if there is any mutual attack, immediately arrested! ”

The two promised: "We will restrain the warriors under our command!" ”
