Zhao Ziliang sat at the head of the Khan tent in Kuo'er Kuotai and asked unhappily: "Kuo'er Kuotai, why didn't you see Qu Zisi and Badasi?
Don't they know that the king is leading his army to arrive here today?"
Kuo'er Kuotai smiled bitterly and saluted Zhao Ziliang and said: "Your Majesty, on your way here just now, you saw that the place where Xiao Khan's tent is located seems deserted, let alone other places.
Many clan members have moved their families.
I moved to the West, and Xiaohan took me with me Even people and horses can't stop Xiaohan.
Since this is the case here, Quzisi and Badasi are probably in a similar situation to Xiaohan.
They should be trying their best to keep their clansmen and have no time to come.
Please forgive their sins, Your Majesty."
After hearing this, Zhao Ziliang did not continue to make trouble and said: "Okay, for your sake, I will not care about them.
But you have to send someone to tell them and ask them to bring people over to join me as soon as possible." , otherwise this king will never give mercy lightly.”
"yes" Rested here for two days.
On the morning of the first day of May, Zhao Ziliang was discussing with Kuo'er Kuotai about sending troops south.
Wang Can hurried in and reported: "Your Majesty, both Badasi and Quzisi were killed by their subordinates.
Their soldiers and horses were all killed."
They dispersed and joined the tribesmen who were migrating westward."
Zhao Ziliang and the generals and officials in the tent looked at each other in shock after hearing this, "How could this happen?"
Kuo'er Kuotai began to become nervous.
He was a little unstable.
He looked at the captains under his command in the tent with fierce eyes and asked: "Did you hear that Badasi and Quzisi were killed by their subordinates?
The soldiers After the horses were disbanded, they joined the tribesmen who moved westward.
Wouldn't you want to kill me like them?"
The expressions of the captains changed drastically, and they all stood up, held their chests, and saluted: "The gods can testify that villains will never dare to do anything disobedient to the Khan."
"Hmph, I'm sorry you don't dare.
Whoever dares to have different intentions, I will dig out his heart, eat his flesh, and kill his family to death."
"Don't dare, don't dare" Zhao Ziliang comforted him: "Kuo'er Kuotai Khan, please be patient.
With me here, no one will dare to harm you, so you can rest assured."
Kuo'er Kuotai hurriedly saluted and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty.
It's just a pity that Batas and Quzisi have turned out to be traitors, causing the whole clan to collapse.
It's a pity that Your Majesty allows me to lead troops to stop those who are migrating westward." , take them next” Zhao Ziliang shook his head and said: "Forget it, Kuo'er Kuotai Khan.
As the saying goes, a melon that is too strong is not sweet.
Even if you forcibly intercept them, they will not sincerely submit to you.
Instead, you may leave hidden dangers for yourself.
In any case, Chuo Benbu and Zou This tribe is not our enemy.
Badasi and Quzisi were my friends during their lifetime.
Although they are dead now, they definitely don’t want me to attack their tribesmen.
Since their tribesmen want to move away, I Of course the king will fulfill them.”
Kuo'er Kuotai thought about it and felt that what Zhao Ziliang said seemed to make sense.
He quickly said: "Yes, yes, your Majesty is right.
We cannot keep these people.
After these people stay, they may oppose me or secretly murder me."
Zhao Ziliang turned the topic back to sending troops to the Khazar Khanate and said to Kuo'er Kuotai: "Khan, I have decided to set off south to attack the Khazars in two days.
I don't know how many troops your Ji Tsai Department can send this time."
Kuo'er Kuotai said with a bitter face: "Your Majesty, you have also seen that half of Xiao Khan's tribe has moved away.
I can only send three thousand troops at most.
I really can't send more troops."

Zhao Ziliang agreed: "Okay, just send three thousand troops."
Kuo'er Kuotai told his ministers: "Marwang, after this Khan leads his troops to go on an expedition with the king, you will be in charge of the affairs of the Khan's account.
Send someone to report to this Khan at any time."
"Yes, Khan" The next day, the second day of May, five thousand cavalry of the Kipchak Army arrived under the leadership of their Khan Moerge.
Moerge saw Zhao Ziliang hungry in the Khan tent.
Zhao Ziliang asked Moerge to drink tea and asked: "Moerge Khan, do you know why the king transferred your troops here?"
Moerge was drinking tea.
When he heard the question, he quickly put down his teacup and said, "I don't know, little Khan.
Please tell me clearly."
Zhao Ziliang said: "Going upstream along the Yedili River, there is a huge tribe called the Bulgars living in the upper reaches of the Yedili River.
These people are unruly and very hostile to me and my people.
They They refused to pay tribute to the king.
The king was very angry and decided to conquer them.
However, most of the king's men were cavalry.
This time he did not bring infantry.
Moreover, if he wanted to defeat the Bulgars in the north, he must fight in the mountains and forests. warrior of experience , I heard from Wei Qil Khan that you Kipchaks live in the mountains and forests, are familiar with mountain and forest warfare, and are elite knights on horseback.
The only people in this world who can deal with the Bulgars are you Kipchaks, so I want you to The troops have been mobilized to attack the Bulgars.
My King's Fifth Army is already waiting at the intersection of the two rivers.
It will take ten days to march north to reach this place.
Once you get there, just obey the instructions of General Huokan of the Fifth Army. " Moerge was very happy that Zhao Ziliang praised them so much.
He smiled and saluted: "Thank you so much for your Majesty to look up to us, the Kipchaks.
The Kipchaks are grateful to those who appreciate us and are willing to serve you.
Please look at our Kipchaks warriors, your Majesty."
Do your best, and the little Khan will come to you with the head of the leader of the Bulgars as a gift."
Zhao Ziliang nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, I am looking forward to your performance.
Tomorrow, the king will lead his army south to attack the Khazars.
Your troops will rest for another day, and tomorrow they will set off north to join the Fifth Army."
"Yes, Your Majesty" On the third day of May, Zhao Ziliang led his troops south to join Wei Meng and Bai Xiaode's troops, while Moerge led his troops north to join Huo Kan.
On the eighth day of May, the two armies completed their rendezvous on the other side of Volgograd in the lower reaches of the Volga River.
At this time, the army led by Khazar Khan Khabier also arrived in the lower reaches of the Volga River, fifty miles away from the Western Qin allied forces. .
Khazar military camp.
General Bu Lan led the defeated 3,000 remnant troops to greet the 30,000 main army brought by Habil at the gate of the camp.
"Your servant Bu Lan pays homage to Tachan."
Bu Lan knelt down on one knee with his sword and shouted loudly to Habier who was riding on horseback.
He had more contact with the people of the Eastern Roman Empire, and Bu Lan also spoke like an Eastern Roman man.
The tone and habits of the Imperial people.
Habil's face was expressionless, and he raised his hand and said: "General Blue and other generals, please get up.
If you have anything to say, we can talk about it after we enter the camp."
"Yes, Tasihan" The army slowly entered the camp and settled down.
Sentries were sent out to detect the movements of Western Qin.
A large number of vigilance rangers were also sent out.
After settling down, Habier met with Bulan and his captains in his tent.
After taking a sip of wine from the Eastern Roman Empire, Habier asked: "General Blue, what's going on?
You have 10,000 elite cavalry, but why are you only left with 3,000 defeated troops?"
Bu Lan hurriedly explained, but was interrupted by Habier in the middle of his words: "That's enough, General Bu Lan, before departure, what did Ben Khan tell you to be careful when facing the Western Qin Army?

Don’t fight with it easily.”
Bu Lan hurriedly said: "Tacihan, I did this according to your order.
After leading the army, I camped on the river bank.
I did not take the initiative to fight with the Western Qin army.
They crossed the river first to attack our army.
When I found out When they arrived, they immediately organized troops and horses to fight.
The fight was too hasty.
The fighting square formation was broken up by the cavalry of the Western Qin Army.
Our army could no longer organize an effective formation for confrontation.
The soldiers' courage suddenly dropped and their morale dropped sharply.
They were charged back and forth by the Western Qin Army and suffered heavy losses.
I don't think so.
I only retreated with the remaining troops in the hope of victory.
Please forgive me."
Habeer said angrily: "They sent troops to sneak attack on you.
What do you do with your ranger patrol posts?
Didn't you even send out the ranger patrol posts?
You idiot, you have been a general for so many years in vain."
Ten thousand elite cavalry?
You lost 7,000 men in one battle.
Our Khazar Khanate has never suffered such heavy losses, nor such a defeat.
You really deserve to die.
Come, take away this sinner's armor and weapons.
Come down and lock him up for disposal.”
"Yes, Tasihan" "Tacihan, spare your life, spare your life," Bu Lan shouted and was dragged away by several warriors.
Watching Bulan being dragged away, Habier had a sneer on his face.
A minister wearing a fox fur hat stood up to salute and said flatteringly: "Congratulations to Taqihan.
Bulan's men and horses suffered heavy losses.
Now only After three thousand troops were routed, there is no fighting power anymore.
The next step is to eradicate his power in Samandar, and then kill him.
Then the power cultivated by the Eastern Roman Empire in our Khazar Khanate will be disintegrated."
Habir smiled, and the wrinkles on his face were uglier than orange peels.
"Yes, first eliminate his power in Samandar, and then kill him.
If we kill him now, his power in Samandar may cause trouble.
Now we are going to war with the Western Qin people.
If there is no problem in the capital of Samandal, you should immediately send people back to Samandal and let Ben Khan’s son take action against Bulan’s forces.
They must eradicate them all and leave no one behind."
"yes" On the eighth day of May, Khazar Khan King Habir, who had rested for two days, was studying a sheepskin map during the war.
At this time, a minister came in and saluted and reported: "Answer the assassin, the sentry sent news from the front that the Western Qin Dynasty The number of soldiers and horses of the army seems to have doubled.
Reliable news shows that Zhao Ziliang has arrived here.
In addition, the Pechenegs have begun a large-scale Mo moved westward, and many of them entered our territory.
These people burned, killed, and plundered our northern territory.
Many tribes were plundered.
What is regrettable is that they did not stay here.
After the plundering was completed, they continued to go west.

And our army is now contained here, and we simply don’t have enough troops to deal with these Pechenegs moving westward."
The muscles on Habier's face trembled when he heard this, and he said: "This Zhao Ziliang is really powerful.
He solved the three northern tribes of the Pechenegs in more than a month and forced the three southern tribes to move westward. , Let them harm us, it’s hateful, it’s really hateful”:
