That night, Zhao Ziliang had just finished reviewing the last memorial when Wang Can came in with a soldier with a tired face and reported: "Your Majesty, there is news from General Zhao Hu.
This is General Zhao sent to report the battle.
The soldier of love, his name is Bai Guang.”
The soldier named Bai Guang immediately bowed to Zhao Ziliang: "The little man pays homage to the king."
Zhao Ziliang raised his hand and said, "Bai Guang, tell me, you get up first.
Have you eaten?"
"Uh" Bai Guang was stunned and said quickly: "The villain is not hungry."
Zhao Ziliang smiled and told a guard next to him: "Go and get him some food."
"yes" The guard quickly brought some ready-made food, and Bai Guang hurriedly ate it at Zhao Ziliang's urging.
Zhao Ziliang asked Wang Can: "Is there any movement over there from the army of the Caliphate of Great Eclipse?"
Wang Can said: "No, General Zhang Ben sent someone to report the news every hour.
The last time he sent someone to report the news was half an hour ago.
As of now, the army of the Caliphate of the Great Eclipse is still in the small town of Nabid.
I guess that on the one hand, they While observing the actions of our army, they are also waiting for news from Ziad.
Until there is further action from our army and there is definite news from Ziad, they may not act rashly and there will be news from Zhang Bi in another half an hour.
"Passed here" Zhao Ziliang touched his chin, walked to the map and pondered it for a while, then told the guard next to him: "Go and call Erzhu."
"yes" At this time, the soldier named Bai Guang finished eating, drank some water, wiped his mouth with his sleeve, stood up and said to Zhao Ziliang: "Your Majesty, this villain has finished eating."
When Zhao Ziliang heard this, he turned around and sat on the main seat and said with a smile: "Okay, tell me about the battle between Zhao Hu and Ziad's men and horses."
"Yes."
Bai Guang said and immediately introduced: "After the sentry was sent to the direction of Zahedan to investigate, news came back a day later.
General Zhao learned that Ziad led 5,000 cavalry to kill him, and immediately left 3,000 infantry behind.
Defending the city, he personally led five thousand cavalry out of the city to fight.
The news was quickly learned by the food army.
Ziad set up an ambush in the town of Bader, hoping to ambush our army, but General Zhao saw through it.
General Zhao ordered the army to stop advancing halfway and set up camp, and then sent out sentries to detect the movements of Ziad's army.
Seeing that his plan failed, Ziad continued.
As a trick, they left half of their troops stationary and the other half We marched through the night and set up an ambush again in the Gorg Gorge.
The next day our army set off for the town of Bader.
When we just entered the Gorg Gorge, General Zhao discovered something unusual and immediately ordered the front army to become the rear army, and the rear army to become the front army.
The whole army withdrew from the canyon before the Dashi army rushed down from both sides of the canyon, and the army suffered no losses. , at this point, the armies of both sides have met each other.
Ziad knew that the ambush plan had been seen through, and he would only suffer losses if he fought with our army again, so he quickly withdrew.
However, General Zhao immediately sent a battalion as a forward pursuit.
The two sides fought twice, and the battle was fierce.
The morale of the food army had dropped, and their combat strength was greatly reduced.
They left more than 500 corpses and retreated.
After returning to the town of Bader, our army then approached the town of Bader.
The scouts kept an eye on the movements of Ziad's army to prevent them from leaving our army's sight.
Ziad used tricks to attack our army several times, but General Zhao saw through them all.
We were approached by our army again, and we had no choice but to engage in a head-on battle.
At 2:00 a.m. yesterday morning, I The army fought with Ziad's army on Huangsha Slope, twenty miles southwest of Bad Town.
During the sprint, our army used mounted shooting and running shooting tactics to kill a large number of enemy troops.
However, because Ziad's army first occupied the favorable terrain, it could not It is conducive for our army to rush into the battle.
After shooting a part of the food army, General Zhao immediately ordered the whole army to fight on the side.
They retreated to the flat area.
The Dashi Army thought that our army was timid and retreated, so they accelerated their pursuit.

However, the more they chased, the more people were shot and killed by our army.
When our army retreated to the flat area, General Zhao ordered the army to Turning around to fight back, the food army collapsed on the spot.
Our army took advantage of the situation to cover up the attack.
Ziad only led more than a thousand wolves.
Fleeing in embarrassment, the remnants of Ziyad have now fled back to Zahedan City.
General Zhao ordered the villain to report the above situation to the king, and asked the villain to tell the king that he has led his army to march in the direction of Zahedan and will arrive in a few days. , please don’t worry about your retreat and supply issues, Zahedan will be back in our hands soon."
After hearing this, Zhao Ziliang said to Bai Guang: "Okay, I already know what happened.
I will ask someone to take you down to have a good rest.
Tomorrow, the king will have something for you to take back and tell Zhao Hu.
At that time, I will send someone If I go to find you, stay in the camp and don’t go far.”
"Yes, farewell, villain" Zhao Ziliang immediately arranged for a guard to take Bai Guang to arrange accommodation.
After the people left, he said to Wang Can: "Do you think Ziad will defend or withdraw after escaping back to Zahedan with the remaining troops?"
Wang Can thought for a while and said: "Ziyad brought troops this time to cut off our army's supply line on the one hand, and on the other hand to attack our army with the Caliph's army.
But this time he was defeated miserably by Zhao Hu.
In this way, he wanted to attack our army from a double flank."
The purpose will come to naught, then Then he has only one mission, which is to defend Zahedan City so that our army has no supplies.
But he doesn’t know that our army can last for four months without supplies.
If he knew, I think he should not Would you be stupid enough to continue to cling to Zahedan?”
Zhao Ziliang nodded, "Yes, Caliph Mansoor's army has not moved yet.
I am afraid that he also wants to confront our army and consume our army's food.
When our army's food and food are exhausted, he will defeat me.
Therefore, even if Ziyad wants to lead his army to withdraw, the Caliph will not allow it.
How can he be willing to do so without defeating our army?"
Wang Can said: "Your Majesty has seen through the Caliph's thoughts.
I don't know what your Majesty plans to do.
If your Majesty's information is correct, tomorrow our army will approach the town of Nabid in large numbers.
Caliph Mansour will probably lead his army to retreat and not allow our army to fight." " "It's possible.
This is why I sent someone to call Er Zhu."
Erzhu rushed over quickly after being notified.
He was not surprised to see Wang Can in the Chinese army's tent.
He cupped his fists and said, "I've met the king.
I've met General Wang."
Zhao Ziliang waved: "Come, sit down."
"Thank you, Your Majesty" Er Zhumou clasped his fists and sat down.
Zhao Ziliang said: "I have ordered the whole army to light fires and make food at Mao tomorrow, and to break up camp and march at Chen.
Have you received the order?"
Er Zhumou cupped his fists and said: "Wei Chen has received the order."
Zhao Ziliang nodded and said: "I have considered that the army will march with great fanfare tomorrow, and the food army may retreat.
I don't want to fight with our army now.
Now that Ziyad's army is occupying Zahedan City, they think that this will cut them off."
Our army's supplies are huge The Food Caliphate may have the intention of waiting for our army to run out of food before fighting with our army.
Although our army is not short of food, we cannot let the food army lead us.
If the time goes by, it will affect morale.
Therefore, this article Wang decided not to give them a chance for a stalemate.
Take the lead in sending a team of troops to set out tonight to occupy the Tah Highlands ahead.

This place is on the side between our army and the food army.
It is only twenty miles away from the small town of Nabid where the food army is currently located.
If we Today, we will occupy the Tahe Highlands overnight, haha Rifa Mansour's army cannot easily withdraw.
The distance is too close.
Otherwise, our army occupying the Tah Highlands can pursue and kill us.
This can force the food army to engage in a decisive battle with our army and eliminate their effective strength. , destroying their resistance morale."
"I have thought about it a lot and decided to send you to lead the army to set off late tonight to occupy the Tah Highlands and firmly occupy it before the food army can react.
In addition to the Guards, I will give you five thousand infantry.
As for the servant army, keep them all among the main force and don’t let them add any trouble to you.
Trouble, what you have to do is to hold the Tah Heights before the main force arrives, because once you occupy the Tah Heights, the food army will soon feel the danger and will definitely send troops to attack you.
Under the current situation, who occupies both sides?
Whoever is on the high ground on one side of the middle zone takes the initiative."
Er Zhumou cupped his fists and said: "Yes, Wei Chen has received the order.
Wei Chen will make preparations now and officially set off at this time."
"Wait a minute" Zhao Ziliang stopped him and asked: "Er Zhu, was your name given to you by your father?"
Er Zhu touched his head in embarrassment and said with an embarrassed smile: "No, Wei Chen caused it himself."
Erzhu is a compound surname.
The more famous ones of this surname are Erzhu Rong, a powerful official in the Northern Wei Dynasty, and his daughter Erzhu Ying'e.
Erzhu Ying'e married three emperors, so she is famous in history.
Zhao Ziliang said: "Your name is too difficult to pronounce.
As a general under my command, not only should I have a mighty name, but I should at least make it not difficult to pronounce when others call it.
If you do this, change it to something nicer." name" "Uh."
Erzhu was stunned, and then he couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Your Majesty, Wei Chen is originally from a barbarian tribe.
He originally knew the name Douda and didn't understand the etiquette at all.
Since he served in the army under the Majesty's command, he became the King's Fu'en was able to learn to write and read, but that was all.
The king asked Wei Chen to give himself a nice name.
Wei Chen really doesn't have that much ink in his stomach.
Why don't you ask the king to give Wei Chen one?"
Zhao Ziliang thought for a while and said, "Then let's call him Er Zhu Xianzhong."
Er Zhu Xianzhong was overjoyed.
It was a great honor to be given a name by the king.
He immediately bowed down and said, "Thank you so much for the name.
I will ask you to be named Er Zhu Xianzhong in the future."
After Er Zhu Xianzhong returned to the camp, he immediately began to make military preparations.
He first took Zhao Ziliang's order to the logistics camp to allocate supplies, and then went to mobilize the five thousand infantry that Zhao Ziliang had promised.
These five thousand infantry were the only five thousand infantry left. , the entire Second Army only had 8,000 infantry.
Zhao Hu left 3,000 infantry, and the remaining 5,000 infantry were all here.
He ordered the kitchen to prepare dry food overnight.
As soon as midnight arrived, he ordered the whole army to eat.
By the time they finished eating, it was already half past midnight.
He immediately ordered the army to set off.
Nearly 10,000 horses quietly left the camp.
It didn't disturb too many people.
Even if someone in the camp heard the noise, they didn't dare to come out of the tent to inquire because there were officers and generals patrolling the camp
