    (Six hundred thousand fans!! The alliance is so powerful! Yun Tian¡¯s friendship is so profound that I will remember it for a long time.)

    ??????????????? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    In the seventh month of the Flooding Fire, the performance of the Tianzhu Northern Expedition Army was also generally red.

    Yanjing was defeated and the clouds descended.  The traditional border territories of the Central Plains, and the Sixteen States of Youyun were all restored - the Song Dynasty longed for a hundred years but could not get it. The Liao and Jin people seized it on the grounds that "every inch of mountains and rivers is an inch of gold", and Song Taizu set up a special "sealing pile warehouse" in the inner treasury.  , The Sixteen States of Youyun, which had accumulated hundreds of millions over the past century, just wanted to redeem them with money, returned to the Han family in the Central Plains in just a few months.

    Since ancient times, when it comes to territory, how can we get it back without spilling blood and just relying on saliva and yellow and white things?

    You may not believe in reason, but I will make you believe in fists.

    The Northern Expeditionary Army struck hard, and the gate of the Kingdom of Jin burst open.  Beyond the Great Wall, you will reach the northern country that the Central Plains dynasty has always ignored.

    In the land of Liaodong, as early as the Tang Dynasty, there were Heishui Governor's Palace and Shiwei Governor's Palace, but they were Mi Prefectures, that is, tribal leaders served as governors and governors, and then the central government sent inland officials to serve as governors.  In this kind of jurisdiction, the form is far greater than the content, and it is impossible to achieve real management at all.  If it is beneficial to the tribe, I will listen to you. If it is not beneficial, I will treat it as your fart.  Therefore, it only existed for a few decades before this fragile method disintegrated.

    And Di Lie's invasion this time is to change this situation - yes, it is also the turn of the Central Plains to invade.  The invasion of the Jin people is the coming of autumn and the departure of summer; the invasion of our Central Plains people.  That means staying for a long time without leaving.

    After Yelu Yujian surrendered, Ling Yuan, on behalf of the King of China and the leader of the Tianzhu Army, Di Lie, gave him quite generous conditions - except for the second one, which was to maintain the status quo in Yunzhong. Due to the collapse of the situation in Yunzhong, today  It was different from the past. Apart from being unable to bargain and being taken away, the remaining three demands were all agreed to and would not be discounted because of the "short pound" at the time of surrender.

    Yelu Yu was grateful when he saw it.  Return a favor in return.  He went north to Xuandezhou with the 12th Mixed Brigade of the Western Front Forward Army. He met his old subordinates, Khitan general Xiao Gaoliu, who was the commander-in-chief of Xuandezhou at that time, and persuaded him to surrender.

    Youyan is lost.  Xijing was broken.  Xuande is located between the two capitals.  It was as if the soldiers had been stripped of their armor and had no room for resistance in the face of the fierce swords and spears.  The appearance of Yelu Yujian.  Zheng gave Xiao Gaoliu an opportunity to surrender gracefully.

    In mid-July, Xuandezhou, an important town in the northwest of the Jin Kingdom - later known as the Xuandafu of the Ming Dynasty, surrendered without a fight.

    At this point, after two months of fierce fighting, the Northern Expedition army had conquered more than 20 cities, annihilated and captured more than 63,000 enemies. Nearly half of the Jin Kingdom's troops deployed on the southern front had been wiped out.

    The evil spirit invades!  The Kingdom of Jin is in danger!

    At the end of July, the main command of the Tianzhu Army was sent to Yunzhong. The remaining guard in Yunzhong was still Han Qixian, the deputy commander was Gao Liang, the deputy commander of the 4th Reorganized Division, and the garrison consisted of half of the 10th Mixed Brigade and Qin Fengjun's Guanshi Ancient Brigade. Total  Five thousand men and horses were stationed in the clouds.

    On the northern front, half of Guan Zhongyong's 10th Brigade of the Fourth Reorganized Division, Zhe Yanwen's 11th Brigade, four brigades of Qin Feng Army, and 5,000 troops of the newly attached Khitan Army, totaling 24,000 troops, went north to join Yue Fei's 12th  The brigade gathered together and attacked Linhuang Mansion, an important town in the Jin Kingdom.

    On the eastern front, He Yuanqing's Second Reorganized Division joined the First Reorganized Division and the Bohai Division to jointly attack Dadingfu.  The Tianbo Division and the Jaeger Battalion, which had previously fought across the sea and successfully cut off the Yanjing Jin Army's retreat, once again took advantage of the leapfrog operation, crossed the Liaodong Bay from the sea, and suddenly attacked Fuzhou on the Suguan Road of the Jin Kingdom.

    From a land perspective, Fuzhou is far away from Dading, Xingzhong, and Liaoyang prefectures, and it can be called the rear area.  When the frontline troops are stretched thin, how many troops can be found in such a remote state city?  When the Tianbo Division and the Jaeger Battalion suddenly appeared on the coast, the Fuzhou defenders were unable to react at all.  The Jaeger Battalion almost pounced, and before the Fuzhou City Gate had time to close, Baiqi broke through and captured them in one glance.

    The place Fuzhou looks inconspicuous on weekdays, but once it is captured by the enemy, the soft underbelly of Liaoyang Prefecture, the southern gate of the Jin Kingdom to Beijing, will be exposed to the enemy.

    Due to the severe shortage of troops in the Jin Kingdom and the limitations of the national combat thinking on horseback, it is difficult to realize that other attack methods other than horse and infantry warfare are completely unable to keep up with the cross-sea combat method of the Tianzhu Army.  The result of this is that the Jin Kingdom concentrated its limited troops in Linhuang Mansion and Dading Mansion, while the troops in the prefectures and states in the rear were pitifully small.

    If Liaoyang Prefecture is as big as it is, its defenders will only be 2,000, and even the walls on all four sides will not be enough.  What's worse is that these are not elite soldiers. The elite soldiers have been seduced long ago.  Of the two thousand defenders, half were newly recruited soldiers who had never fought before, and the other half were old, weak, sick and disabled. How could such a weak army withstand the two mighty Tenchu ??Army, which looked like wolves and tigers?

    On the eighth day of August, after a short rest and replenishment of food and ammunition, the first and second reorganized divisions of the Tianzhu Army and the Bohai Division started the battle of Dadingfu.The garrison of Dading Mansion was less than 5,000. They were harassed by the Tianbo Division and the Jaeger Battalion for a long time. They lost more than 2,000 troops. The supplies were robbed and burned, which was countless. Not to mention the military morale and fighting spirit - even the 60,000-strong army was destroyed.  , how long can less than five thousand people guard it?

    Soon, the Jin Army of Dading Prefecture knew the answer, but the answer was not given to them by the Tianzhu Army, but was handed over by the Jin Army of Linhuang Prefecture.

    On August 12, the Northern Army of the Northern Expedition launched an attack on Linhuang Mansion.  After three days of bloody fighting, the gate of Linhuang South City was opened by the Khitan soldiers guarding the gate. Yelu Yujian took the lead in rushing into Linhuang Mansion and suppressed it.

    On August 17, news of the fall of Linhuang Mansion and the emergency in Liaoyang Mansion came at the same time, and Dading Mansion suddenly fell into chaos.  Seeing that the situation was over, the guard of Dading Prefecture committed suicide - Dading Prefecture, suppressed.

    The successive capture of Linhuang Mansion and Dading Mansion was of great significance, which marked that half of the Jin Kingdom had fallen.  What's even more serious is that the last bit of vitality on its western and southern fronts has been completely buried by the Tenchu ??Army.  From now on, if the Jin Kingdom were to become a big country, except for Huining Prefecture where Shangjing is located, there are still 40,000 Jin troops. In other roads, prefectures, and states, no city can have more than 3,000 soldiers and horses, and no city can have more than 3,000 troops.  More than a hundred elite soldiers.

    "This small amount of troops, in the eyes of "big eaters" like the Tianzhu Army, is not even considered a dish, it can only be regarded as a snack, which is not enough.  From now on, the Northern Expedition army will enter the period of running and marching, and the autumn wind sweeps the fallen leaves.

    ??The Kingdom of Jin is like a deep and vast courtyard whose heavy doors have been forcibly kicked open. It looks with sadness, anger and helplessness as the strongmen trample and ravage their own homes

    It¡¯s not that the Jin Kingdom doesn¡¯t want to divide its troops for rescue, but the question is, how do you rescue it?  The prefectures currently facing the attack of Tianzhu's Northern Expedition are: Xingzhong Prefecture, Liaoyang Prefecture, Xianping Prefecture, Huanglong Prefecture, Jianzhou, Yizhou, Xinzhou, Hanzhou, Zhaozhou Even if the Jin army has three heads and six arms, it can't take care of it.  come!  There are too many monks and too little food. Forty thousand soldiers are spread across so many prefectures and cities. Apart from sending more Jurchens to be slaughtered by the Tianzhu army, nothing can change the outcome.

    We can¡¯t save them all, and we can¡¯t save them all. The Jin Kingdom can only concentrate its limited forces and deploy them at key nodes.  There are four key nodes: Xianping Prefecture, Liaoyang Prefecture, Huanglong Prefecture and Zhaozhou.

    The enemy in front of Xianping and Liaoyang is the Northern Expedition Army on the Eastern Front; the enemy on the side of Huanglong Palace and Zhaozhou is the Northern Expedition Army on the Northern Front that captured Linhuang Palace.  As long as one of these four strongholds is removed, Huining Mansion will be exposed to the front of the army.

    At this time, Wanyan Zonghan, who had once again put on his military robe and served as the marshal of the Jin Kingdom, resolutely dispatched generals and allocated half of his troops, about 20,000 horses, to reinforce the two prefectures and two states.

    Zhaozhou (today's Daqing) and Huanglongfu (today's Nong'an) are both close to Shangjing. Ten thousand elite Jin soldiers quickly entered the city and took over the defense.  Xianping Mansion was a little further away, but two thousand fine cavalry galloped ahead and arrived in two days, followed closely by the remaining three thousand infantry.  With strong support from various prefectures, Fang regained his military morale and rekindled his fighting spirit.

    However, something went wrong with the five thousand gold soldiers who reinforced Liaoyang Mansion.

    The commander-in-chief of this army of one thousand cavalry and four thousand infantry is the only remaining general among the young men in the Jin Dynasty world: Wan Yanang, the golden prince.

    Wan Yan'ang, a member of the royal family of the Jin Kingdom, was the grandson of Wugu Nai, Diba Hei, the ancestor of Jin Jing.  The young servant Taizu Wanyan Aguda had extraordinary arm strength. He was seventeen years old and served in the Liao Dynasty. He had considerable military exploits.  Aguda was very happy and awarded him a gold medal. He was called "Gold Medal Man" in the army.  Wanyan Ang first attacked the Song Dynasty from Wanyan Zongwang and served as the commander of all the troops and horses in Henan. Later, he and Wu Shu led three thousand troops as the vanguard to attack Bianzhou. He once led eight soldiers to defeat the Song army and defeated ten thousand soldiers.  With one against ten, he can be called a brave general.  Together with Wu Shu, Sa Lihe, Wanyan Huonv, and Wanyan Yuying, they are the elites of the young elites in the Jin Dynasty world.

    Wanyan Ang led five thousand cavalry and infantry troops, nearly half of whom were elite Jurchen soldiers, and the rest were Khitan, Bohai and Xi people, all of whom were the last elite of the Jin Kingdom.  If such an army really enters Liaoyang and defends the city, it will definitely cause a lot of trouble to the Eastern Front Army of the Northern Expedition Army.  However, Liaoyang Mansion is too far away from Shangjing. On the contrary, Tianzhu Army is much closer to Liaoyang Mansion.

    When Wanyan Angang led his army to Zhaosan City, not far from Shenzhou (today's Shenyang), he was shocked to hear that Liaoyang Prefecture had fallen.  Wanyanang was shocked and immediately ordered the entire army to speed up and move into Shenzhou.  This Shenzhou is only five or sixty miles away from Liaoyang Prefecture. As long as we get to Shenzhou before the Tianzhu Army, we can still do something.

    However, Wanyan Ang didn¡¯t know that within a hundred miles of Liaoyang Mansion, there was already a hunting ground for a group of hunting soldiers and flying cavalry.

    When the vanguard cavalry of the Jin Army arrived near Qipan Mountain, more than 40 miles northeast of Shenzhou, they discovered the cavalry shadows of the Tianzhu Hunters.  The Jin cavalry did not dare to advance rashly and immediately reported the news to the Chinese army in the rear.

    When Wanyan Ang personally led hundreds of cavalry and came to find out what was going on, he was surprised to find that there were more and more enemy cavalry, galloping far and wide, kicking up large amounts of yellow dust, making it difficult to see what was going on.

    After more than half an hour, it seemed likeThe yellow dust that covered the sky slowly dispersed, and the scene in front of him was so shocking that Wanyan Ang almost fell off his horse¡ª¡ª

    On the undulating horizon, an armored army suddenly appeared.  The flags are like a forest, the soldiers and armor are like a cluster, and there are also the shining silver chariots, which make people's hearts feel cool.

    The most eye-catching flag is the Tianzhu military flag in the center of the army, as well as the large banner with the word "Di" on a black background and gold edge that symbolizes the commander-in-chief.

    On August 28, the Eastern Front Army of the Northern Expeditionary Army, including the entire 1st Integrated Division, the 5th Brigade of the 2nd Integrated Division, the Chasseur Battalion, and the Guards Battalion (formerly the Guards Battalion), totaling more than 17,000 troops, were about to complete the offensive.  Five thousand gold troops under Yan Ang were surrounded at the foot of Qipan Mountain outside Shenzhou City.

    The evil spirit shows its fangs.
