    Raozhou is located in the upper reaches of Huangshui River.  This generation was the land of Longxing in the Liao Kingdom, but later the political and economic center of the Liao Kingdom moved to Shangjing, and later concentrated in the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun in the south.  Although Raozhou is not very prosperous, its geographical location is very important.  Right between Shangjing and Nanjing (Youzhou), guarding Huangshui Ferry is of great strategic significance.  At ten o¡¯clock in the afternoon on this day, a large army came in a hurry from the north and immediately rushed towards the barracks of the Raozhou defenders.  The leader was none other than Yelu Yixin. He went to Beijing to rebel, but Yelu Hongji was not captured. The attempt to assassinate Yelu Jun failed again. Unintentionally, everything was lost.  (He did not know that Yelu Hongji was seriously injured and would die.) At this time, Yelu Jun was leading the eastward army to rush towards Beijing quickly. The troops of King Qin from all over the country also rushed there. If they stayed in Beijing, they would unintentionally wait for death and become the target of public criticism.  If you want to survive, you must leave the most dangerous place and move as soon as possible!  Escape from the dangerous situation and then think of a way, maybe there will be a chance of survival.  Even if you become a rogue, as long as you travel across the grassland, there will always be a chance, and a comeback is unknown!  Yelu Yixin set his sights on the south. If he could hurry up, this might be a good opportunity to fight back.  The most urgent task is to pass through Raozhou and cross Huangshui!  Although it is summer, which happens to be the rainy season, the water level in Huangshui is not high.  After the scouts' investigation, they quickly determined the location to cross the river. Being able to wade across the river was undoubtedly a good way to save time.  Standing on the shore, watching the army continue to cross the river, Yelu Yixin's solemn expression relaxed a little.  Even if he is now accused of being a rebel, he is not afraid. After so many years of power in the Liao Kingdom, how can he do it without any foundation?  Now is a good time to use it.  After crossing Huangshui, there is great hope!  Seeing that the sky was getting gloomier and there was a possibility of rain, Yelu Yixin had no choice but to keep urging the soldiers to cross the river as soon as possible.  If it starts to rain, the trip will definitely be affected.  Now is the time to fight.  Where can I delay for a moment?  As a result, the entire Huangshui River was filled with soldiers under Yelu Yixin.  Just as the advancing soldiers crossed the river and landed, and most of the soldiers were still in the river, a huge roar came.  Yelu Yixin was shocked. Where did the sound come from? Was it the cavalry chasing after him?  Not so fast.  Yelu Jun returned to Shangjing from Liaoyang, then turned around and headed south.  It will take a long time.  But the roar became louder and louder, and suddenly a sharp-eyed soldier saw a raging white wave coming quickly from the river bend upstream.  The waves are high, fast, and the deafening roar is frightening.  A huge wave fell in the soldier's eyes.  There is only fear, extreme fear!  Yelu Yixin stood on the river bank, watching helplessly as a huge wave passed by. The soldiers crossing the river continued to struggle in the river, and finally disappeared in the rushing water.  The Huangshui suddenly surged, swallowing up countless lives and Yelu Yixin¡¯s extravagant hopes.  He has a wide mouth.  I still can't accept the reality in front of me, and I don't even understand what's going on.  After being stunned, when he came back to his senses, endless panic filled his heart.  Someone blocked the river in the upper reaches of Huangshui River to store water, just to wait until he was halfway across. This was a premeditated ambush.  So who is the ambusher?  Soon, the answer appeared!  There was another rumbling sound from the earth, and Yelu Yixin was sure.  This time it was horseshoes, not river water.  When the Pishi Army guarding Yelu Jun appeared and forced the remaining 20,000 to 30,000 of them to the Huangshui River, Yelu Yixin suddenly wanted to laugh, but couldn't.  Yelu Jun is actually here. Could it be that he has been tricked again?  ¡­ ¡­ ¡­ ¡­ Seeing that Yelu Yixin could no longer stay in the capital, he had no choice but to leave with tens of thousands of troops.  If it is pure wandering.  Without a suitable destination, they are no different from rogues on the grassland.  But no matter what, it is impossible to have tens of thousands of bandits with no future in sight.  Who else wants to continue to follow them?  At that time, the morale of the army will inevitably be weakened, and the rebel soldiers will also leave for various reasons.  Once it falls apart, it's really over.  If your wealth and life are not saved, you will also lose your last chance.  People like Yelu Yixin have it in their bones that they either don¡¯t do it or they must do it. Of course, the price may be to lose everything.  He was a person who was unwilling to admit defeat easily, so he decided to give it a try and give it a last try.  "If you want to compete with Yelu Hongji and his son, even if it's just a confrontation, it's not enough to rely on the troops you have.  At this time, strengthening strength becomes more and more important.    But where are the troops?  What is the military strength that is enough to compete with Yelu Jun and allow him to recover his strength?  The answer is exactly¡ªLiao Kingdom South/Jing Youzhou City!  Another elite force of the Liao Kingdom was stationed in Youzhou. The Song Dynasty's Hebei Road army defended them, and the Liao Kingdom also had to guard against the Song people.  In particular, the Song Dynasty kept clamoring to take back the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, which still put a certain amount of pressure on the Liao Kingdom.  The Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun is located in the southernmost part of the Liao Kingdom and was originally the most sinicized. The agriculture, handicrafts and commerce here are very developed.  His position in the Liao Kingdom was very important, and his economic significance had long surpassed that of going to Beijing, so he could not afford to lose it.  In this case, we will inevitably station heavy troops in Youzhou to protect Nanjing and protect the commercial center.  At the same time, it was also to prepare for the Song Dynasty and put pressure on the Song Dynasty, with many troops.  If you can control the soldiers and horses in Youzhou, your strength will definitely increase greatly. With the danger of Yanshan, you may be able to gain a firm foothold and make a comeback.  This is the only opportunity to compete with Yelu Jun and his son. Here is Yelu Yixin's true purpose.  That¡¯s why we have to run wildly day and night, heading south as quickly as possible, in order to get rid of the pursuers.  In the past, he had been stationed in Youzhou for a long time. There were some generals appointed by him, and there were many people who were related to him to some extent, and they could be considered to have intricate foundations.  By escaping to Youzhou at this time, there is every chance of making a comeback and turning defeat into victory.  This is why he is rushing to cross the Huangshui River. Life and death lie on this thin line.  The problem is, he can think of it himself, and so can Prince Yelujun.  After receiving the news of Yelu Yixin's rebellion, Yelu Jun was originally very anxious and planned to quickly lead his army back to Beijing.  But after leaving, he changed his mind. In the battle with the Jurchens, he accumulated a lot of combat experience and considered the problem more comprehensively.  If something like this happened, how could Yelu Yixin sit back and wait for death?  There will inevitably be a rebound and a desperate fight.  The capital for this fight is only available in Youzhou and Northwest. The Tiande army in Hetao is not weak, but the distance is far away and it is too late to rush over.  The most likely one is undoubtedly Youzhou, which can compete with Shangjing!  How could Yelujun tolerate such a situation?  Therefore, he immediately sent his trusted generals back to stabilize the situation in Beijing.  Then he personally led some soldiers and horses to Raozhou, which was the only way to go south.  A villain like Yelu Yixin must be hit with one hit and completely strangled, otherwise there will be endless troubles.  So, a big pit was dug in Huangshui.  Yelu Yixin was careless for a moment and didn't notice it at all, and then jumped down regardless of his own safety.  So, all that awaits him is - the end of the road!
