The iron barrel formation that Zhang Jun set up in Guizhou actually put Wanyan Zonghan in a bit of trouble.
Because he expected that the Song army would easily let go of the city they had fought so hard to conquer. If they could annihilate the troops here again, the situation would be completely different. His chance of winning was as high as 90%. As long as the Song army outside was eliminated, Yunzhou The main force became a lone army. Unexpectedly, when Liu Kai heard that he was coming, he made a prompt decision and ran away without any hesitation. You Wanyan Zonghan is powerful. If I don't fight you, just pretend that I am afraid of you. Okay.
As soon as the soldiers were looking at Wan Yan Zonghan, they couldn't attack, just what you said.
After Wanyan Zonghan looked at the map for a while, he said: "The Song army is focused on defense. If we attack by force, it may be difficult to take it."
When the soldiers heard this, it seemed that they no longer wanted to fight, so they should withdraw.
Unexpectedly, Wanyan Zonghan changed the topic and said: "If it is just a city in Guizhou, we don't want it. But if we can capture Juyong Pass, we can take advantage of the opportunity to enter the pass and go straight to Yanshan Mansion. The main force of the enemy army is behind the mountain. The mountain front must be empty, and Yanshan Prefecture is their base camp in the Yanyun area. Once we take Yanshan Prefecture, the Song army will be defeated without attacking, and we will have the prefectures and counties in front of the mountain at our fingertips."
The implication is that it is still worth attacking.
The fact is that Yanshan Mansion is indeed very empty now. The main force has gone to Yunzhou, leaving Zhang Shuye alone, and Zhang Shuye has to guard Gubeikou.
Wanyan Zonghan thought for a while and suddenly said to someone: "Yi Cibao, you immediately lead five thousand soldiers to attack Juyong Pass. However, there is no need to attack by force, just pretend to attack."
After hearing this, Yi Cibao took the order and went out with an embarrassed look.
The reason why Wanyan Zonghan sent him there was because the soldiers in front of Yi Cibao were beaten so hard that they couldn't hold their heads up, so it was perfect for him to lure the enemy.
Later, Zong Han led his main force to set up an ambush at Juyong Pass.
Zhang Jun was guarding Guizhou, and Liu Kai was guarding Juyongguan.
Yi Cibao led the vanguard to Juyongguan, and let the soldiers attack a few times without any effort, and then retreated. The flags and weapons were scattered all over the ground. Anyway, they had enough expressions and their acting skills were very realistic.
Liu Kai stood on the top of the mountain, looked at the weapons and military flags on the ground, laughed, and said: "This is a tactic of the Jin army to lure the enemy. There must be an ambush ahead. We don't need to pay attention to it and let them go."
Although this is part of the Song army, there are still 40,000 to 50,000 troops in total. Wanyan Zonghan¡¯s full force is less than 20,000. However, Wanyan Zonghan is mainly cavalry, and Liu Kai and the others are mainly infantry. You go out and fight Wanyan Zonghan. , It¡¯s not that you will definitely lose, the problem is that if you win, the Jin army will just run away. Anyway, they have nothing to worry about, and they have no intention of taking this place. There is still no one in Ruzhou City, but Wan Once they lose, they won't be able to escape. After weighing the pros and cons, both Liu Kai and Zhang Jun thought there was no reason to attack.
With Zhao Kai¡¯s edict also coming, they had even less reason to attack.
Seeing how calm these two old men were, Wanyan Zonghan felt helpless and could not help but curse, "These two old men were trying to lure them away but did not attack."
"Du Tong, it is not appropriate to stay here for a long time. We should move as soon as possible to attack the next target. A stalemate here will not be good for our army."
They are fighting on the offensive. The attacking side must not stop. As soon as you stop, the other side can take defensive measures. By then it will be too late for you to attack again.
Wanyan Zonghan also felt that he could not stay any longer, so he said: "With the main force of the Song Army gathering here, Yuzhou will definitely be empty, and Yuzhou is the center of the mountains in front and behind the mountains. Once we capture Yuzhou, Xi can attack Hunyuan , cut off the supplies of the Song Army in Yunzhou, and attack Yanshan Prefecture from Feihukou and Zijingguan in the east."
After the next battle plan was drawn up, Wanyan Zonghan led his troops to bypass the Guizhou defense line and go straight to Yuzhou.
The night before leaving, he ordered someone to send a gift to Zhang Jun and Liu Kai.
Three mice, one of which had a broken leg.
When Zhang Jun saw this gift, how could he not understand what Wanyan Zonghan meant? It was nothing more than a satire that he, Liu Kai, and Zhe Kecun were all rats and did not dare to come out for a decisive battle. The rat with a broken leg meant that it had been maimed. Fortunately, Zhe Kecun is still recovering from his injuries, otherwise he would be so angry that he would vomit blood.
"But Zhang Jun and Liu Kai are both very old, and they have never seen any big storms. They just accept the small gift with a smile.
That night, Zhang Jun replied a letter to Wanyan Zonghan. On the header of the letter, he wrote, "The tiger occupies the majestic mountain, the way of destiny, the habit of rats, they are used to scurrying around."The difference between a tiger and a rat is the difference between a majestic mountain and a cave in the ground. It is clear at a glance which is the tiger and which is the rat. I will accept you as a member of your tribe, and I will take good care of you with all my heart. I hope you can breed rats into tigers, so don¡¯t worry about them, and have a good journey.
Wanyan Zonghan didn¡¯t understand Chinese characters, so the counselor read it to him. He didn¡¯t say much, but it was very clear. No explanation was needed. Anyone who was not mentally retarded could understand it.
Because the Song Army now occupies the Taihang Mountains, does the tiger occupy the majestic mountain? This is the way of heaven, and it is arranged by God. It has been like this since ancient times. When have you seen tigers running around all over the ground? If you are a tiger, why don't you go up the mountain? Fighting for sex?
Only animals like mice are used to running around, drilling into holes when they see them, and running away when they see people. Didn't Wanyan Zonghan just lead his army to wander around, hitting here and there, then hit here and there, then the habits of tigers and rats are Look, who is the tiger and who is the rat?
It is obvious at a glance that you will definitely lose in any lawsuit.
The first half of the sentence is okay, it is just a sarcasm, but the second half is not sarcastic, but a naked curse. "I will accept it as a fellow member of your tribe." This compatriot must be referring to the three rats. Isn't it just that the Jurchens are regarded as mice?
When the Jin army officers heard that Zhang Jun compared them all to mice, they were all so angry that their mouths were full of smoke. My Jurchen man is like a tiger and a horse like a dragon. He goes up the mountain like an ape and enters the water like an otter. What do you look like, old guy? Is this a rat? ? His literary attainments were not even close to those of Liu Ru. He threatened to kill Zhang Jun and chop him alive. It was really too irritating. He wanted to show him who was more talented.
This did not make Zhang Jun angry, but made him feel idle. Wanyan Zonghan was trying to steal the chicken but lost the rice. He thought to himself that he would never play this trick with these Song Jun Confucian generals in the future. In the end, he would still suffer the loss.
There is not a single curse word in the entire article, but it scolds all the Jurchen clan, leaving no one alive or dead.
Of course, he would not take the risk of attacking Guizhou just for this letter. He laughed and said: "The power of words can't last long. Who is the tiger or the rat has to be determined immediately."
Although Zhang Jun was scolding happily, he really couldn't do anything with one army. He really didn't dare to divide his troops and attack, and he really couldn't catch up. If Wanyan Zonghan came around and captured Juyong Pass, then Yanshan Mansion would be in trouble. The situation is in danger unless a large army is gathered to encircle and annihilate this unit. But the problem is that the main force is attacking Yunzhou, where can the troops be divided.
Zhang Jun could only write to Zongze, informing Zongze of the situation here, and let Zongze find a way to deal with it. In addition, he also sent people to rule the Yuzhou garrison, asking them to be prepared for defense. The first step may be to attack Yuzhou, because there is only one Yuzhou left nearby.
When Wanyan Zonghan's morale was at its peak, Wanyan Zongwang also achieved good results in Xixia. Although Li Qianshun, the leader of Xixia, was also a wise king of Xixia, he still could not escape the party people's way of thinking. He was too conservative and always They hope to be able to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight and reap the benefits. Because Xixia is almost a transportation fortress and everyone covets it, so the party members are trying to survive in the cracks. Naturally, they hope that the great powers in the north and the great powers in the Central Plains will fight inextricably. , then they will naturally be safe.
As a result, he missed the best opportunity to counterattack. Wanyan Zongwang led his army to borrow a road from Xining Prefecture. After crossing the Yellow River, they immediately headed north. The first place to attack was Yingli.
Liu Yanzong suffered a lot here at first. He could not attack for a long time and suffered heavy losses.
Although General Yingli was brave and blocked the Jin army from crossing the river, he did not know the Jin army's intentions and thought that the Jin army was going to attack the Song Dynasty, so he was discouraged. Moreover, his heavy troops were deployed on the banks of the Yellow River, leaving an extremely empty rear. Suddenly a Jin army descended from the sky, and they were immediately at a loss. The mercury poured down the ground and they were defeated. In less than half a day, Wanyan Zongwang captured Yingli City.
This Wanyan Zongwang has always followed the royal way, and what is the royal way is to give both kindness and power without tyranny. His character is not as violent as Wanyan Zonghan, but this time it is different. They really suffered a lot in Helan Mountain and the Yellow River, and their hair has turned a lot white. , countless Jurchens lost their lives. Although the party members died more, Wanyan Zongwang would not think so. All I care about is my compatriots, and I hate the soldiers and civilians of Yingli City even more. It is your mother's blockage. It took me so long, and now you are finally in my hands. The moment he captured Yingli City, he immediately ordered the three armies to massacre the city without any hesitation.
This was exactly what the Jurchens wanted. They had been suffering here for several months without making any progress. There was a sense of hostility in their hearts and they had nowhere to express their worries. Zongwang gave an order and tens of thousands of soldiers poured into the city. Men, women, and children were killed on sight, without even giving them a chance to kneel down and surrender. The massacre lasted for a whole day. The blood of the party members stained the entire city red, and corpses were everywhere. This military town immediately turned into a ghost town. .
¡°Then after plundering all the food and grass in the city, they immediately set fire to the city. This??Destroy evidence.
This Yingli City is right on the edge of the Yellow River. The firelight shines on the Yellow River and reflects into the night sky. It is said that the night is like daylight for a hundred miles in radius, and it burned for three days. The intensity of the fire can be imagined.
After capturing Yingli, Wanyan Zongwang was unstoppable, but he also understood that now that all the elites of the party members were in Helan Mountain, the rear area must be empty. In order to achieve the greatest success in the shortest time, he immediately divided his troops into two groups and attacked all the way. , attack Xiazhou, and go north all the way, the purpose is to march into the Hetao area, the Ordos grassland, and attack Wuci Haicheng from both sides with Wanyan Xiyin. Once Wanyan Xiyin's army enters the Hetao area, Xixia will die, and he himself will He personally led the way straight to Xiping Prefecture. This Xiping Prefecture is the old capital of Xixia. It was Li Yuanhao who moved the capital to Xingqing Prefecture. This means that Xiping Prefecture is the accompanying capital of Xingqing Prefecture and is the political and cultural center of Xixia. If we can If we capture this place, Xixia will suffer unprecedented heavy losses.
