    September 16th, Bailangsai.

    The first heavy rain in late autumn came unexpectedly, but this heavy rain failed to hinder the progress of both the offensive and defensive sides. The soldiers from the north and the south fought fiercely in the heavy rain.

    Eager to embark on the road home, the northern captives launched a torrential attack on Bailangsai with a rainbow of morale, courage to move forward, and determination to sacrifice their lives.

    Huanghuadui Pass is like a small boat on the stormy waves, swaying in the violent storm and in danger of capsizing at any time.  

    The soldiers of Yanbei have been fighting for nearly a month, suffering huge losses and are exhausted. Facing the crazy offensives of the Beibei, which are getting higher and higher, they can hardly breathe or hold up. They can only rely on their tenacious will and the fear of the Beibei flowing in their blood.  The deep-rooted hatred from generation to generation, gritting one's teeth and persevering, using all one's strength to make a last ditch effort.

    Jialan threw all the fighting troops into the battlefield. He was powerless and lost control of the battle situation. He could only pray for God's help and fight bloody battles with his long sword. He could only fight with the warriors of Middle-earth,  Live and die with the land of Northern Xinjiang.

    At dusk, the Huanghuadui fortress fell, and the imperial soldiers retreated to the Luming Pavilion defense line.

    At dusk, Shibi Khan personally visited the front line of Jinshatan Beach and ordered the soldiers to continue their efforts. Taking advantage of the power of Huanghuadui, he attacked all night and took turns to fight. He defeated the Imperial Army at all costs and tried his best to destroy the Imperial soldiers.  With his own will, he strives to win the White Wolf Seal in the shortest possible time and open the way home.  

    At dusk, Jialan, who was covered in blood, wrote urgently to Xue Shixiong, who was left behind in Zhuo County, and Yang Gongren, who was left behind in Liaodong.  Bailangsai was in a hurry.  The imperial soldiers were unable to survive under the non-stop attacks day and night by the Beibei army, which was several times their own. They were in danger. Please ask Wu Yin Gong and Guan Guo Gong to speed up the march, and the military governors to rush forward to provide immediate support.

    Jialan also urgently wrote to Li Jing, the general of the Youwu Guard: Mr. Hua, someone lost the Huanghuadui Pass at dusk.  Retreating to the Lumingting defense line, it was no longer possible to protect the flanks of the Shenwuchuan battlefield. This caused a fatal flaw in the pincer-shaped defense formation on the southern line of White Wolf Fortress. The Beibei could complete the separation of White Wolf Fortress and Shenwuchuan overnight.  , and surrounded the Shenwu River.  Therefore, we kindly ask Hua Gong to take advantage of the main force of the Beilu to attack the Lumingting defense line and before committing a large force to the Shenwuchuan battlefield, and take the initiative to retreat to the Qiaoshan, Langshan and Xiaoqingshan lines to be integrated with the Lumingting defense line.  Build a pincer-shaped defensive posture again so that the two armies can respond from east to west and help each other.  Continue to work together to fight against the Northern invaders and hold on to the White Wolf Fortress, allowing the emperor and the main reinforcements to enter the decisive battlefield to surround the Northern invaders and gain more time.

    At midnight, Li Jing received a letter from Jialan.  Although he has his own views on this decisive battle, he also has his own interpretation of the current battle situation.  But out of an old minister's loyalty to the emperor.  An old soldier had complicated emotions about the war. After weighing it again and again, he forced himself to lower his stance, gave up his personal opinions, and accepted Jialan's "tactfully" order.

    Li Jing ordered the Peking Army to withdraw from Shenwuchuan overnight.  They retreated to Qiaoshan, Langshan and Xiaoqingshan lines, and moved closer to the Lumingting defense line. In an emergency, they even entered the Lumingting battlefield to fight hand in hand with the Yanbei army.  Fight against the Northern invaders together.

    Li Jing's order was questioned by Wu Benlang General Luo Yi. It was right to retreat and to support each other with the Lumingting defense line. However, entering the Lumingting battlefield with cameras would inevitably increase the losses of the Peking Army.  The current situation of the war is actually very clear. The main force of the Beibei has arrived at the White Wolf Fortress. Its absolute advantage in military strength has instantly reversed the situation of the war. Huanghuadui has fallen, and the loss of the White Wolf Fortress is only a matter of time.  , but where are the emperor and the main reinforcements currently?  Have you entered Daibei?  Can they get to the decisive battle battlefield before the Beibei captures the White Wolf Fortress?  There are no answers to these, and the lack of answers means that the empire has lost control of the war situation. At this time, the people who control the development of the war situation are the Northern Barbarians and the Turks. Therefore, it is meaningless to invest limited troops in the Bailangsai battlefield at this moment. How many lives will be invested?  No matter how much, it is better not to vote. If you don't vote, you can preserve some vitality for the Peiping Army and the Northeast Road Guard Army.

    Li Jing asked Luo Yi angrily, if the Yanbei army was completely wiped out, if the northern captives stepped on the corpses of the Yanbei army and rushed out of the siege, how could you and I go to see the emperor?  How do you face the soldiers of the Northeast Army who are fighting bloody battles?  Turning a deaf ear to friendly forces at a moment of life and death, and being timid and refusing to fight when the enemy breaks through, is such a shame and humiliation. Can you and I bear it and resist it?

    Luo Yi was ashamed and speechless.  The current war situation has actually become a deadlock, a deadlock that will never end.  The soldiers of the Northeastern Army fought to the death at the cost of their lives and blood. Regardless of the outcome, no matter the victory or defeat, the soldiers of the Northeastern Army will eventually fall on the battlefield, die heroically for their country, and dedicate all of themselves to China and the Empire.  .

    Luo Yi was in agony, unbearable, and cursed loudly, "Jialan, you devil, you Asura, you will go to hell, to the eighteenth level of hell."

    Li Jing also felt sad and miserable.  The emperor and the central government exchanged the decisive battle between the north and the south for the border areas.There is nothing wrong with the stable grand strategy. The fault lies with the executor. The fault lies with Jialan, a crazy killer. He simply ignored the fact that his own strength was insufficient and could not carry out a decisive battle between the north and the south. He just used a series of abnormal means to kill the enemy.  The limited imperial troops advanced on the battlefield of the decisive battle between the north and the south, trying to defeat the many with less, the weak against the strong, trying to create a miracle. Who knows, even if a miracle occurs, even if the empire wins this decisive battle between the north and the south, the price will be huge.  The weight is too heavy for the empire to bear.

    "At this point, the only option is to fight to the death." Li Jing added an order, "Even if we fight to the last man, the Peiping Army will stick to the White Wolf Fortress and live or die with the White Wolf Fortress."

    On September 16, the emperor personally visited the Yellow River and commanded the Imperial Guards of the Three Attendants and Five Prefectures, the left and right Yi Guards Zhu Yingyang, the Xiaoguo Army, the Daibei Army, the Taiyuan Army and the Hedong reinforcements to forcefully cross the Yellow River again.

    The emperor's intention was very simple. Whether he could cross the Yellow River was secondary. The main purpose was to put heavy pressure on the Beibei through fierce attacks and force the Beibei Chen troops to block the Shanyang line. In this way, he could use all his strength to contain more Beibei.  The enemy troops were captured, and then helped the Imperial Army to hold on for a longer time on the White Wolf Fortress battlefield.

    The emperor's anger intimidated the generals of the guard, and the continuous retreat of the northern captives on the battlefield greatly boosted the morale of the imperial soldiers. As a result, the offensive was like a roar, with more than 50,000 imperial troops advancing in a field several miles long.  A massive river-crossing operation was launched on the river section.

    At less than three quarters in the afternoon, Mayi Prefect Wang Rengong, Wu Benlang General Wang Zhibian, and Wu Yalang General Zhang Lun took the lead and commanded the soldiers of the Daibei Army to successfully cross the river, quickly destroy the beachhead established by the Beibei Army, and capture the high ground in the river valley.  Post, a gap was opened in Beilu's defense line.

    The emperor was so excited that he ignored the dissuasion, and under the protection of the Xiaoguo First Army, he crossed the Yellow River without hesitation and climbed to the top of the valley with the retinues of General Yuwen Shu and General You Yiwei who came to protect his son.  On the post, the imperial banner and the emperor's flag were erected.

    The emperor crossed the river, and the imperial soldiers gave out earth-shattering cheers. They roared forward with invincible force, rushed across the Yellow River with overwhelming force, and destroyed the Beilu defense line with thunderous force.

    On the afternoon of September 16th, at Shen Shizheng, the imperial army, under the leadership of the emperor, attacked Shanyang City.

    Mohedu set up Ashinadu Bisi to command the Northern Lu army to retreat to Shanyang City and set up defensive positions on both sides of the Sanggan River. At the same time, he urgently reported to Shibi Khan that the war situation was becoming increasingly unfavorable to the Turks. The emperor  He is about to lead his army to Shanyang City and approach the Sanggan River. In this way, hundreds of thousands of northern captives will be surrounded by the Chinese people on a narrow battlefield of less than two hundred miles. They will be unable to advance or retreat, and the weather, food and  Unfavorable factors such as , morale and morale of the army are also coming one after another, which will bring a heavy and fatal blow to the army, and there is a danger of the entire army being annihilated at any time.

    Mohe Du designed to warn Shibi Khan that no more imperial reinforcements have been found along the Yellow River. The Turks still have time to break out. If more or even more than 100,000 imperial reinforcements enter the battlefield, the Turks will surely  The best opportunity to break out will be lost.

    On September 17, the fighting on the Bailangsai battlefield was extremely fierce. More than 200,000 soldiers from the north and the south fought crazily on the battlefield with a radius of dozens of miles, using all kinds of offensive and defensive methods.

    By the afternoon, the Lumingting defense line was in constant danger. The defense line was in danger under the attacks of the northern captives, and the Yanbei army was already unable to sustain itself.

    Jialan asked Li Jing for help.

    Li Jing did not hesitate and ordered Luo Yi to command two ten regiments of Yingyang Mansion to quickly enter the Lumingting battlefield and help the Yanbei army hold the defense line at all costs.

    At the same time, the Efeokou Pass was also in danger, and Liu Heitai and Xue Wanjun asked Jialan for help.

    Jialan urgently sent a letter to Wu Benlang generals Zhao Shizhu and He Lanyi, requesting the Youzhou army to quickly reinforce Efeokou. Efeokou must be defended and Bailang's defense line must be secured to win enough battlefield space.

    Zhao Shizhu immediately ordered Wu Yalang to general Jin Wenyan and the command post to quickly move closer to the Efeokou pass. No matter what the cost, even if all the troops were wiped out, they must hold the Efeokou pass and never let the northern captives attack Bailang.  Go one step further.

    On the morning of September 17, the emperor led his army to Shanyang City.

    Moheduo ordered Ashinaduo to abandon the defense of Shanyang City and use all the troops to defend the Sanggan River defense line.

    In the afternoon, Wang Rengong and Wang Zhibian led their troops to the banks of the Sanggan River and fought fiercely with the Kangsumi tribe of Beilu.

    Soon, the emperor led the main army to kill.  The imperial soldiers with high morale immediately set up their battle formations and launched a violent storm-like attack on the northern captives.

    On September 17, King Yang Tong of Yue, General Yun Dingxing of Zuotunwei, and Li Yuan, ambassador of Shanxi and Hedong comforts, led their troops across Loufan Pass, which was still one day away from Shanyang City.

    Followed closely by the Xijing reinforcements led by Yang Yichen, they were still two days away from Shanyang City.

    The same day, ?Xue Shixiong, who was left behind in the county, and Yang Gongren, who was left behind in Liaodong, led their troops across the high mountains of Qingpi Road and were rapidly approaching the Bailangsai battlefield.

    On the night of the same day, Shibi Khan came to the Luming Pavilion battlefield in person to direct the operations.

    At midnight, the defense line of Luming Pavilion fell, and the imperial soldiers retreated to White Wolf Fortress.

    As long as the Beilu captured the White Wolf Fortress, destroyed the Efeokou Pass, and opened up the last fifteen miles of passage, they could then embark on their way home.
