State, personally commanding five thousand guards The army started from the city of Shiluosi and advanced along the upper reaches of the Hengluos River.
It passed through Baishui City to meet up with the Bai Xiaode Department of the Second Army, and then headed west together to the banks of the Syr Darya River in Yaoshashui.
Killing water has been marching downstream.
The cavalry of the first legion was led by Zhao Hu, and the cavalry of the sixth legion was led by legion commander Xuan Yi.
The two cavalry set out from Asu City in the Tocharian region and marched downstream along the Wuhu River and the Amu Darya River.
The cavalry of the Seventh Army Corps, led by Xuan Ertong, set out from Samatou City in the Sogdian region and marched westward along the Nami River until they reached the banks of the Wuhu River, where they then joined the Zhao Hu Division of the First Army Corps.

The Fifth Army left the infantry under the command of Lieutenant General Wu Ke to guard the Kimak Khanate.
The cavalry was led by Huo Kan and set off from the Kimak Khanate.
Together with 20,000 Kimak cavalry and 10,000 Kipchak cavalry, they marched towards the north shore of the Aral Sea.
Kimak's cavalry and 10,000 Kipchak cavalry can be said to be Kimak's entire force.
Now, after transferring these soldiers and horses, the Kimak Khanate is almost empty.
The infantry led by Wu Ke, the deputy general of the Fifth Army, has no pressure at all.
Moreover, there are Mobei Army and Mobei Grassland cavalry in the east to deter Kimak Khan.
The monarchs and ministers of the Khanate could only remain obedient and did not dare to move at all.
The Eighth Army has been stationed near the Aral Sea, with its main camp near Aralsk, and various ministries and battalions setting up camps along the Aral Sea.
On the north coast of the Aral Sea, Aralsk, the headquarters of the Eighth Army of the Western Qin Army.
A reconnaissance horse rushed into the camp and came to the Chinese army's tent.
He ran into the tent and reported to Xuan San: "General Qi, the envoys from the Pecheneg tribes have returned.
They are led by tourists from the Ogus tribe.
The cavalry escort has arrived fifty miles to the northwest."
Xuan San immediately ordered to his deputy Han Chuang: "General Han, you immediately lead five hundred cavalry to meet him."
"promise" Soon, Han Chuang and five hundred cavalry escorted the delegation to the headquarters of the Eighth Army.
Xuan San and his men greeted the delegation at the gate of the camp.
"Mr.
Gu, you are finally back.
A few days ago, the Chief of Ceremony of the Wangting Government Affairs Council sent someone over to inquire about your news.
Did your trip go well?"
Xuan San said as he welcomed the delegation headed by Gu Ming into the camp.
Gu Ming said as he walked: "Thank you for your concern, General.
Although our trip is difficult and dangerous, it is still safe and the loss of personnel is not big."
When they arrived at the main tent of the main camp, several key figures of the mission were welcomed inside to rest and drink tea, while the others were placed in other tents to rest.
Xuan San asked: "Master Gu, how is the outcome of this mission?
The king sent someone here today to inquire.
I am still waiting for your news."
Gu Ming said: "The Pechenegs are not too harmonious and unified internally.
The Yi'ertian and Zouer tribes of the Pechenegs located to the west of the Khazar Khanate are too far apart, and there are Khazars in between.
We did not go to the Khanate.
We only sent envoys to the Jishi tribe, the Khorzhu tribe, the Chachaboyi tribe, the Taramati tribe, and the Chuo tribe who stayed in the northern part of the Khazar Khanate.
Among these six tribes, only three tribes, namely, Ji Ci tribe, Chuo tribe and Zou tribe, are willing to send troops to assist us, but three tribes, namely Kuolezhu tribe, Chacha Boyi tribe and Tarama Ti tribe, are not willing to send troops. , their territory is located in the north, not bordering the Khazar Khanate, and they have no grudges with the Khazars, so they do not want to fight with the Khazars."
Xuan San asked: "How many troops are each of Ji Ci, Chuo and Zou willing to send?"

Gu Ming said: "They don't have a large population, and they don't have many warriors who can be summoned.
Each of them can only send three thousand troops."
Upon hearing this, Xuan San immediately ordered his deputy Han Chuang: "The king's troops are already on their way here.
Immediately send someone to report to the king the results of the mission to the Pechenegs."
"Follow your orders" Court of the Khazar Khan, Samandhar near present-day Makhachka.
Thirty years ago, the royal court of the Khazar Khanate was located in Barengal, located at the source of the Surak River, the southern branch of the Terek River.
However, in 732, the then White-coated Food Kingdom sent troops to conquer Barengal.
The Khazars had to locate their royal court further north in Samandar.
Samandar is located near the later Makhachka, near the middle of the west coast of the Caspian Sea and north of the Greater Caucasus Mountains.
The Khazars are a branch of the Western Turks.
Like the Oghuz, they are all descendants of the Turks.
The Eastern Roman Empire and the West also called the Khazar Khanate the Khazar Khanate, and the title of the Khan of the Khazar Khanate was Tarakhan, which is similar to the title of leader, chief, king, etc.
After 20 to 30 years of accumulation in Samandar, the Khazars have established settlements here.
There are many buildings and houses built inside and outside the royal court.
Due to the marriage relationship between the Eastern Roman Empire and the Khazar Khanate for two consecutive generations, the Eastern Roman Empire After Balengar was destroyed by the cannibals, the empire sent a construction team and architects to the Khazar Khanate to help the Khazars build this town in Samandar.
Some of the main buildings in the city were from Eastern Rome.
Designed by imperial architects and built by Eastern Roman construction teams.
In the middle of Samandar there is a tall building, which is the palace of Khazar Khan Khabir.
Habil, who is over sixty years old, has white hair, but still has an unruly face, wearing a crown and sitting on the throne, flanked by leaders of various ministries, captains of thousands, captains of thousands, and ministers of government.
A minister in his forties, Molda, stood up and saluted Habil, said: "Tacihan, the news has been confirmed.
The Western Qin Royal Court of the Tang Empire has decided to send troops to us.
According to reliable information, their army has already The group headed towards the Aral Sea to the east of the Caspian Sea, preparing to reach the north of the Aral Sea.
There is also news that the Western Qin army has conquered the Kimak Khanate and the Kipchaks in the north, and that they have 20,000 Kimaks and 10,000 Kipchaks as servants.
The Gus and some Pechenegs have agreed to send troops to attack us together."
The Khazar Khanate is the most civilized nation among the European Turks.
They learned from the Tang Dynasty in the Central Plains, the Great Food Kingdom in West Asia and the Eastern Roman Empire.
While nomadic, they were also engaged in commercial activities and were relatively well-informed.
With a solemn face, Habier said to the ministers, leaders of various ministries, and the commanders of thousands and thousands of the army: "It seems that we are in big trouble this time.
The Tang people in Western Qin are going to take serious action against us."
After finishing speaking, Habier looked at the Jewish Bishop Magath and asked with an unkind expression: "Your Excellency Magath, didn't you say that you robbed the caravan of the Western Qin Dynasty, and the Western Qin people were helpless?
Now it's okay, the Western Qin people First, they sent an envoy to ask questions Sin, now they have sent a large army to attack us.
With the 50,000 troops of our Khazar Khanate, we are simply unable to fight against the Western Qin Allied Forces.
Your suggestion has caused great harm to our Khazar Khanate.
Arrest Magath.
After being imprisoned in jail, he will be punished.”
"Yes, Tachan."
Several Khazar warriors rushed into the palace and dragged Magath out.
Magath shouted: "Tacihan, the Western Qin coalition is a rabble, and they are no match for Tacihan's army."
At this time, a general named Bu Lan, who was of Jewish descent, stood up and shouted: "Slow down!"
Beginning in 740, Khan Khabir of the Khazar Khanate converted from Envelope Shamanism to Judaism at the initiative of Bulan.
General Bulan was the initiator of the spread of Judaism among the princes and nobles of the Khazar Khanate.
The Khazar warriors dragging Magath stopped.
General Bulan saluted Habir and said: "Tacihan, Your Excellency Magath has been preaching in our Khazar Khanate for twenty years and is very concerned about the peace and stability of the subjects of our Khanate.
It played a big role, and His Excellency Magath had a prominent status in the Eastern Roman Empire and had an extraordinary relationship with Emperor Constantine V of the Eastern Roman Empire.
We cannot deal with him casually to avoid offending the Eastern Roman Empire.

Please answer.
Make Han think twice" Habier hesitated, and a minister stepped forward and whispered: "Tacihan, Magath cannot be dealt with for the time being.
Although the current emperor of the Eastern Roman Empire, Constantine V, is your son-in-law, this matter involves two people.
Now that the Western Qin Allied Forces are approaching, if we lose, we can still ask for help from the Eastern Roman Empire.
But if we kill Magath now, we will offend the Eastern Roman Empire, which will mean that we will cut off the way to ask for help."
Habir has lived for more than sixty years and has become a mature man.
He suddenly realized it and his face became extremely ugly.
He said: "I understand.
I have fallen into the trap of the Eastern Romans.
All of this is the Eastern Romans' trap."
It’s the empire’s fault.
The Western Qin caravans left our Khazar Khanate and caused the Eastern Roman Empire to lose a lot of tax revenue.
So they asked Magath to bewitch and persuade Ben Khan to send troops to attack the Western Qin caravan, so that the Western Qin caravan would not dare to take our route and could only take the southern route.
In this way, their taxes would increase. , but we can no longer collect taxes from the Western Qin caravan.
Why is this Khan so confused and fell into the Eastern Roman Empire's conspiracy?"
The minister whispered: "Tacihan, it's too late to regret now.
We can only form a team with the Eastern Roman Empire to resist the attack of the Western Qin army, and wait until this crisis is over before we can find a way to regain ground from the Eastern Roman Empire."
The Eastern Roman Empire will never let us be attacked by the Western Qin army.
Once we are defeated, the Western Qin caravan can bypass the Eastern Roman Empire and go directly to the west, and the Crimea in the north of the Eastern Roman Empire They will also be threatened by the Western Qin Army."
Between being deceived, angry and rational, Habir finally chose to swallow his bad breath.
He ordered the Khazarian warriors at the door of the hall: "Put him in jail first, and wait until the Khan thinks clearly before dealing with him."
"Yes, answer Cihan":
