After discovering the iron cavalry that appeared in his north, Maliksha immediately sent an army to set up an ambush outside his camp, waiting for the arrival of this enemy army, at this time the cavalry that appeared in the north of the Serbian army did not need to say much to know that it was the Qarlu cavalry, the 50,000 Qarlu cavalry was led by Timur, after receiving Li Liangzuo's military order, Temur led 50,000 troops from the north to the south to help, after this period of repair, the combat effectiveness of the Qarlu cavalry greatly increased.
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, not far from the front of our army is the camp of the Serbian army, according to the sentry cavalry detective, the camp of the Serbian army is heavily guarded, and it is not easy to sneak attack at all."
Paletak said to Timur.
"It is precisely because of the tight garrison that our army is easy to get, the Serbian army is heavily guarded, which means that we have not been discovered, as long as our army can succeed in the surprise attack, it will inevitably inflict heavy losses on the Serbian army, this prince has made up his mind, and General Paler does not need to say more."
Timur said to Paletak.
After repairing for a while, 50,000 Qarluq cavalry embarked on the journey, Timur would not have thought that his every move was actually under the surveillance of Marikshah, from the beginning of Timur's raid was doomed to failure, when Timur led the killing into the Serbian camp was very smooth, too smooth so that Timur felt that things were a little strange, and Timur immediately realized that he was ambushed.
Seeing Timur stop in front of the camp of the Serbian army, Paletak asked Timur, "Why did Your Highness suddenly stop marching?"
"Something is wrong, we may have fallen into the trap, and ordered the whole army to retreat slowly."
Timur decisively gave the military order.
But at this time it was too late to react, Timur had just ordered the retreat, and the Serbian army that was ambushed on both sides of the camp suddenly killed, in this passive situation, Timur and Paletak could only lead the troops to block and cover the withdrawal of the army, because it was dark night, and the two armies of the Qarluqs were mainly cavalry, so the whole battlefield was very chaotic, in this chaotic situation, the cavalry was not as flexible as the infantry, and the Qarlu cavalry fell under the horse one by one under the strangulation of the Serbian army, The living space of the Qarluq army is getting smaller and smaller.
"Your Highness, hurry up and break through, if you don't break through, I'm afraid that the 50,000 army will all be broken here."
Paletak suggested to Timur.
"Order the whole army to break through the siege, break through immediately" "Your Majesty, the enemy seems to be running away."
An adjutant general came to Maliksha's side and said.
"These cavalry are not Xia troops."
Maliksha said as he looked at the noisy battlefield with shouts of killing.
"Your Majesty means to let them go," the lieutenant general asked Maliksha.
Maliksha said: "Now our biggest enemy is the Xia army, and if we continue to fight, it will only increase the casualties of our army, so I ordered the army to let go and let them go."
"But Your Majesty, let them go, what if they turn back again" "Rest assured, they won't turn back; Besides, our army has just fought a big battle during the day, and it has been marching for a long time, and it is already the end of the crossbow, and there is no point in continuing to fight, so give the order" "Yes, the last general commands."
Under the noble hand of Malikshah, Timur led the remnants of the soldiers and horses to escape from the encirclement of the Serbian army, and the Qarluq cavalry suffered heavy losses in this battle, losing nearly 30,000 soldiers and horses.
The losses of the Cypriot army in this battle were negligible, and after a day of repair, Maliksha led the 150,000 or 60,000 Cypriot troops to disappear, as if the world had evaporated.
Three days later, the Xia army camp Li Liangzuo's Chinese army tent.
"Your Majesty, do you think that the Serbian army has already withdrawn to Samad City," Xiao Zhuozi said as he put a cup of ginseng tea on Li Liangzuo's handsome case.
Li Liangzuo looked at the map and said: "Impossible, if Maliksha leads the army back to Samad, it means that he has given up the 400,000 Serbian troops on the front line, this is a 400,000 army, Maliksha will not give up no matter what; But these 400,000 troops are already surrounded by our army, how will he rescue these 400,000 troops?"
"Your Majesty, although our army said that it surrounded the Serbian army, it did not completely surround the Serbian army, but only blocked the retreat of the Serbian army."
"The way back," Li Liangzuo said after frowning; "Oh no, hopefully it's still in time."
"Command the army to march out at once."
Li Liangzuo anxiously issued a military order.
"What's wrong with Your Majesty?"
asked Xiao Zhuozi to Li Liangzuo.
Li Liangzuo immediately got angry and said: "So much nonsense, go and give an order, if it's too late, Lao Tzu will pick your skin." ” Looking at Li Liangzuo's hideous face, Xiao Zhuozi ran out of the big tent to pass the order, Li Liangzuo was so anxious because he found a loophole in himself, according to the plan made at the beginning, it can be said that the Xia army is invulnerable, but due to the change of the plan in the later stage, there is a loophole, that is, the defense line on the south bank of the Honghe River, according to the original plan, the Xia army will be divided into north and south to advance along both sides of the Hong River after annihilating the main force of the 400,000 troops on the front line of the Serbian army, but due to the increase in troops by Maliksha, Li Langzuo had to choose to surround the main force of the 400,000 Serbian army, and then lead the troops alone to block the 300,000 reinforcements of Malikshah.
At the beginning, Li Liangzuo believed that as long as the 300,000 troops of Maliksha could be stopped for more than ten days, the 400,000 front-line soldiers and horses of the Serbian army would lose their combat effectiveness due to the exhaustion of food and grass, and then the Xia army could annihilate all the 400,000 Serbian soldiers as if it were devastated.
After the assembly of the army, Li Liangzuo decisively issued a military order: "Order the whole army to give up all materials and baggage, and withdraw from Xiqi City at full speed to join the main army." ” "I hope the time will still come," Li Liangzuo said silently.
The cavalry of the Xia army rushed all the way to the west of the city, but it was too late to rush in time; After the evacuation of Maliksha on the west bank of the Hong River, he marched east along the Hong River, and the Serbian army has been advancing along the south bank of the Hong River for fifty miles, and when it reached the north bank of the Hong River, the Cypriot army crossed the Hong River at a hundred miles west of Xijiacheng, which is located on the north bank of the Hong River.
The Serbian army successfully crossed the Hong River, Maliksha was pleasantly surprised, but at the same time said that a huge crisis befell the head of the Xia army, and now the situation on the battlefield is extremely unfavorable for the Xia army, the main force of the 400,000 Xia army is facing a two-sided attack of 550,000 Serbian troops, a big war is about to break out, and this time the Xia army is at an absolute disadvantage both strategically and in terms of strength.
