The news that Zhao Ziliang led 20,000 Tang troops to Kang State soon spread to the Kingdom of Dashi, which made the kings and ministers of the Kingdom of Dashi quite nervous.
You must know that Bingbo Xilin was one of the most decorated generals in the Kingdom of Dashi, and even he was defeated.
Under Zhao Ziliang's command, other Dashi generals even dared not say that they could defeat Zhao Ziliang.
Last year, after Boshilin brought Ziyad back to the Great Food Country, the Caliph Abbas of the Great Food Country originally wanted to find an excuse to kill him, but after hearing that he was defeated and returned during the Eastern Expedition, he also lost a lot of money.
The army returned with less than 4,000 cavalry.
Abbas immediately decided not to kill Bingbosilin for the time being.
Bingbosilin, the governor of Khorasan, Lin only had less than 10,000 troops in his hands, which no longer posed a threat to his rule.
Moreover, Boshilin's disastrous defeat this time broke his myth of being invincible, and Boshilin's prestige was also reduced due to the This defeat caused a sharp decline.
All the accumulated military exploits were completely consumed in this defeat due to the loss of tens of thousands of troops.
Of course, Abbas no longer had to go out of his way to find an excuse to kill a general who no longer threatened his rule.
Instead, keeping him could show the world his generosity, so Boshilin could Khorasan Province continued to be his governor.
The news that Zhao Ziliang led 20,000 elite Tang troops to Kang State to replace Cao Lingzhong soon spread to the Dashi Kingdom.
The government and the public in the Dashi Kingdom were very nervous.
The Bingbo Xilin in Mulu City, the capital of the northern Khorasan Province, was even more worried. enemy, he soon learned Three thousand fine cavalry of the Tang Army arrived in Huoxun Kingdom.
The leading general was Li Sheng, a fierce man who had killed seven or eight of his generals.
He thought that Li Sheng's three thousand fine cavalry were just the forwards of the Tang Army.
The Tang Army would follow.
The main force will arrive soon.
It was not unreasonable for Bingbo Xilin to think so.
On the one hand, he sent people to ask for reinforcements from the imperial court of Dashi Kingdom, and on the other hand, he organized his own army in Khorasan Province to prepare for war.
After Li Sheng led his troops to the Huoxun Kingdom, he reorganized the Huoxun Kingdom's troops and consolidated military power.
On the other hand, he sent people to inquire about the news of the Dashi Kingdom.
When he learned that Bingbo Xilin was preparing for war in Mulu City, he aware of the possibility It was the fact that he led his troops to the Huo Xun Kingdom that made the Dashi Kingdom misunderstand the purpose of his coming to the Huo Zhao Ziliang reported.
Sammo built the city and the Tang army camped outside the city.
Zhao Ziliang, wearing a helmet and a blood-red cloak, stood on the military platform with a sword in his hand and watched the Tang Army infantry on the school field practicing formation changes.
Behind him, there were many Tang Army generals standing on the left and right sides.
These infantrymen are all drawn from the various armies in Beiting.
If they are not drilled and re-trained, their combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced once they face the enemy.
Therefore, they must be drilled again to allow all units to cooperate tacitly and exert their maximum combat effectiveness.
After watching for a while, Zhao Ziliang said to Dugujun next to him: "According to this progress, we will be almost ready in another ten days."
Dugujun nodded and said: "Yes, although these infantry troops were drawn from various places in Beiting, they all adopted unified training methods and subjects, and instilled unified combat thoughts and consciousness in the soldiers.
Therefore, these soldiers and generals The running-in is very fast.
If it were the army from other border towns, it would take several months to run-in."
At this time, Cen Shen rode a horse into the camp and went straight to the military commanding platform.
When he got to the stage, he jumped off his horse and came to the military commanding platform.
Someone nearby had already said to Zhao Ziliang: "Commander, Cen Shen's army is here.
Just I’m afraid something might happen” Zhao Ziliang turned around when he heard the words, and saw Cen Shen walking over quickly and cupping his hands and saying: "Commander Jiedie, Li Sheng sent someone to report that Bingbo Xilin was preparing for war in Khorasan Province.
Reliable information showed that the imperial court of the Great Shi Kingdom We have also quickly dispatched 30,000 cavalry to Khorasan."
"Oh" Zhao Ziliang thought for a moment after hearing this, and then ordered Xuan Qi, who was in charge of training next to him: "Continue to practice."
Xuan Qi agreed: "Promise" Zhao Ziliang walked towards the audience and said to Cen Shen: "Let's go back and talk about it later."
The group quickly left the camp and returned to the Chinese army camp in the palace.
After dismounting, Zhao Ziliang handed the horses to his soldiers to take away.
As he walked into the palace, he asked Cen Shen: "How is the situation over there with Li Sheng?
Has the fire been controlled?"
Seeking the country’s military power” Cen Shen said: "General Li sent people to bring two pieces of news.

One is the reaction of the Dashi Kingdom, and the second is his situation in the Huo Xun Kingdom.
He has controlled the Huo Xun Kingdom's army and obtained military power.
Huo Xun In the country, from the noble officials to the ordinary people, everything is quiet and orderly."
Zhao Ziliang nodded and said: "Since Li Sheng has successfully controlled the Huoxun army, our first step of controlling the armies of the Sogdian countries has been completed.
We will immediately proceed to the second step, ordering the armies of the countries to exchange Defense area, proceed according to our prior plan, you quickly draft the military order and give it to me to sign and seal."
Cen Shen followed him and hurriedly agreed: "No, I will go immediately and tell General Li Sheng how to reply."
Zhao Ziliang said: "I will make a decision on this matter after asking the soldiers who reported the news.
Is there any news from Tingzhou about how the recruitment is going?
Is there anyone who is making trouble in Tingzhou while I am away?"
Cen Shen said: "Brother Fei sent a message this morning.
Zhao Hu and the others are conducting recruitment matters.
They have recruited more than 5,000 people.
They should be able to complete the recruitment in about two months.
There are indeed people secretly working together to make small moves these days.
But they were quickly discovered by Wang Can and dealt with it."
Zhao Ziliang expressed his affirmation: "Okay, please write back to Wang Can.
You must not tolerate those who are secretly colluding to plot evil.
Once you find any clues, you must immediately trace them to the end.
Some people may be hiding very deep.
If necessary, you can put a long line to catch the big fish."
Catch all those people in one fell swoop.
In addition, remind Wang Can not to neglect the right to The monitoring of various tribes told Liu Tiao that the steps to move the Beiting Protectorate and Xingying Jiedu Envoy to Hengluosi City should be accelerated.
The yamen and garrison can not move for the time being, but the construction and renovation of Hengluosi City The project will be accelerated, so I will leave this matter to Chu Ge and ask him to follow up and provide as much labor as possible."
Cen Shen agreed: "Promise" Zhao Ziliang came to the lobby and met the soldiers sent by Li Sheng to report the news.
He carefully asked about the situation of Li Sheng's army in Huoxun Kingdom, and also asked about news related to Dashi Kingdom.
After letting the soldiers who reported the news go down to rest, Zhao Ziliang said to the generals and officials: "The Dashi Kingdom may have misunderstood that we were going to raise troops to attack them, so they were a little nervous.
We just sent 3,000 people to the Huoxun Kingdom, and they were scared.
They sent an army of 30,000 people, so they were so unintimidated."
The generals and officials laughed when they heard this.
Gao Shi said: "Commander Jie, the governor of Khorasan Province of the Great Shi Kingdom is Bingbo Xilin.
Now he has about 10,000 horses.
In addition to the 30,000 cavalry sent by the imperial court of the Great Shi Kingdom, there are a total of 40,000 horses.
This is a force that cannot be ignored, how should we respond?"
Zhao Ziliang paced back and forth in the lobby with his hands behind his back, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "The Food Kingdom has sent troops here, do we have to fight them?
I see that the Food Country sent troops to Khorasan Province not to take the initiative to fight with us.
It should be to guard against us.
Whether we fight this battle or not is up to us.
We can fight if we want to.
If we don’t want to fight, we can’t.
I think the Dashi Army should not dare to take the initiative to send troops."
Xuanba asked: "Jie Shuai, what if the cannibal is so brave that he really takes the initiative to send troops to attack us?"
Zhao Ziliang narrowed his eyes and sneered: "That's just right.
I just want to see who else in the Sogdian countries is not firm this time, and try to come out together to make a deal with it and let the soldier who reported the news tell Li Sheng.
We will not take the initiative to provoke the cannibals for the time being, but we will send Necessary reconnaissance sentries are necessary to detect the movements of the Dashi Army.
If the Dashi Army takes the initiative to attack, it will take more than ten days for him to lead his troops to retreat to Anguo territory and wait for our army's tactics to adjust.

If the Dashi Army really dares to take the initiative, , just in time to let them taste the power of our Beiting Army."
"promise" The response of the Dashi Kingdom was swift.
Thirty thousand cavalry traveled day and night and quickly arrived at Mulu City in Khorasan Province, and were temporarily placed under the command of Bingbo Xilin.
A month has passed, but there has been no movement among the three thousand fine cavalry of the Tang Army stationed in Huo Xun Kingdom, and the follow-up troops of the Tang Army have not arrived either, which makes Bingbo Xilin confused.
Bingbo Xi could wait, but the 30,000 cavalry sent by the imperial court of the Great Shi Kingdom could not wait.
The three captains of 10,000 suggested taking the initiative to test the Tang army's reaction.
They could not allow tens of thousands of troops to be stationed here and waste food and supplies.
Although Bingbo Xilin was the chief general, he could not act arbitrarily.
The three captains were generals sent by the Caliph.
Together they put pressure on Bingbo Xilin, but Bingbo Xilin had no choice.
Bassi was suspicious, so he had no choice but to agree to send troops to test the Tang army.
Five thousand cavalrymen of the Great Food Army crossed the border and went deep into the territory of Huoxun Kingdom, but they found that the Tang army was retreating along the upper reaches of the Wuhu River towards Anguo.
After the news reached Mulu City, the three thousand captains of the Great Food Army ignored the plan to merge with Bo Xilin.
He objected and insisted on sending a large number of troops to pursue Li Sheng's tribe.
Subsequently, 30,000 Dashi cavalry entered the territory of Huoxun Kingdom, burned, killed and looted, robbed cattle, sheep, horses, countless gold, silver and jewelry, and also captured a large number of young women.
Then the Dashi army continued to pursue the Tang army southeast along the Wuhu River.
After capturing the entire territory of Huoxun Kingdom, they continued to enter the territory of Anguo.
Zhao Ziliang did not take any action after receiving the news.
At this time, some nobles and tribal leaders from various Sogdian countries were already preparing to make a move.
The Tang Army soldiers who had been secretly watching them immediately reported the situation.
Zhao Ziliang took quick action to arrest all these people.
After arresting a large number of people, they were sentenced to death.
After solving the internal instability in Sogdia, Zhao Ziliang was about to lead his troops west to fight the decisive battle with the Dashi army in Anguo.
Unexpectedly, Bingbo Xilin might have guessed his intention and ordered the three Dashi troops in a very stern tone.
The commander of the army withdrew his troops and returned to the country of Dashi, but the battle could not be fought again.
However, the plan of the Tang army was not disrupted, and the plan of the Sogdian army to change defenses was still carried out as scheduled.
Li Sheng was ordered to lead his troops back to Samat to build the city, leaving a deputy general to lead a thousand cavalry back to Huoxun Kingdom to garrison, and sent to other places The Tang army also gradually withdrew most of its troops, leaving only a small number of troops stationed there to supervise the Sogdian army stationed in other places
