    An error occurred while processing private documents. On the 15th, the Tiger Army launched an attack on Zhending City.  It has been more than twenty days since the fierce tiger army reached the gates of Zhending City.  The Jin army in the city had been fully prepared for a long time. On the other hand, the Tiger Army continued to increase its troops, and it was not until today that it had an absolute advantage in strength. On the day of the attack, although it was huge, the formation was messy and the attack was not determined. Obviously there was no  The preparations for the siege were too hasty and posed little threat to the Jin army.  At dusk, the Tiger Army stopped attacking.  Jin Army coach Wanyan Wuta stood on the tower, looking at the densely packed Hu Lie Army camp in the distance, and the ominous premonition in his heart became stronger and stronger.  The Zhending battlefield should be a containment battlefield. The main battlefield of this battle should be on the line between Handan and Anyang. However, since the Tiger Lie Army increased its troops ten days ago to now, the strength of the Tiger Lie Army on the Zhending battlefield has increased dramatically in just ten days.  This can confirm that Wanyan Gao and Wanyan Zongfu's guess about the development of the war situation in Hebei was correct. The Tiger Lie Army has very big intentions, and its real goal is Zhending, which is the entire Hebei.  However.  Half a month had passed. It was simply incredible that Wanyan Gao and Wanyan Zongfu had not made any strategic adjustments even though they already knew that the Hu Lie Army was going to attack Zhending with heavy troops.  Therefore, Wanyan Wuta lacked confidence in the entire war situation, and was especially angry that Youyan's reinforcements had not been able to move south to join forces.  How long can it really last?  Wanyan Wuta turned around and looked at the soldiers around him, feeling unsure at all.  What do Wanyan Gao and Wanyan Zongfu think?  Is it too naive to rely on me to hold back the main force of the Tiger Army on the Zhending battlefield?  Is there such an adventure?  If Zong Wang were still alive, would he fight such an incredible battle like Wanyan Gao and Wanyan Zongfu?  ¡°Capital, will the Tiger Army attack tonight?¡± a general suddenly asked.  Wanyan Wuta said nothing.  One goal of the Tiger Army is Zhen Ding, and the other two goals are to block the main force of the Jin Army at the front line of the Hutuo River and strive to attack from both front and rear. In other words, the purpose of the Tiger Army's attack on the Handan and Anyang lines is just to drag down the main force of the Jin Army.  Stay and give the Tiger Army enough time to complete the attack target.  Now that the battle situation has become clear, the main force of the Jin army will either retreat across the board, or stick to Zhending and Handan, and face off against the Tiger Army for a long time. Wanyan Gao and Wanyan Zongfu obviously chose the latter. They will never bow to the Tiger Army.  We will not give up Hebei.  The ideas of Wanyan Gao and Wanyan Zongfu are beyond reproach. Ask yourself, if Wanyan Wuta were in their position, Wanyan Wuta would still defend Hebei and not give in. However, the strength of the Tiger Army is not what it used to be.  Can the Jin Army realize its strategic intentions on the Hebei battlefield?  "One thing is certain." Wanyan Wuta turned to face the generals.  He solemnly said, "The target of the Tiger Army is the entire Hebei. To do this, they must first obtain Zhending City and cut off the connection between Youyan and Hebei, thus forcing our main army to withdraw from Handan and Damingfu. So  "Wanyan Wuta turned his head and looked at the Hulie camp that was gradually disappearing in the dusk, with a trace of helplessness in his eyes. "Currently, for the Hulie army, whether they can quickly capture Zhending City is directly related to the development of the entire war situation.  Therefore, their time is very limited. If I were the leader of the Tiger Army, I would take advantage of my strength and attack day and night, never giving my opponents any chance to breathe." A group of Jin Army generals were secretly horrified, thinking of Li Li in the past few years.  They were very uneasy because of the invincible record of the tiger and the fierce army.  "These few days are very important. The morale of the Tiger Army is strong, and the possibility of day and night attacks is very high." Wanyan Uta raised his voice, "Each army must make proper arrangements and ensure the physical strength of the soldiers to ensure that they can fight at any time.  It¡¯s time to go into battle and repel the enemy.¡± = At ??midnight, the lights suddenly brightened in the Tiger Army¡¯s camp.  People shouted and horses neighed, and groups of soldiers rushed out of the camp and attacked the city again.  The torches outside the city were like clouds, bright as day, and the killing sounds were like bursts of thunder passing through the dark night sky, exploding loudly over Zhending City.  The Jin army responded calmly.  The Tiger Army was as powerful as a rainbow. Under the cover of night, its huge army used torches and drums to create an astonishing attack pattern.  The Jin army was frightened by the momentum of the fierce tiger army, and the soldiers were very nervous.  In the early hours of the morning, the Tiger Army began to attack with arrow arrays, and occasionally fired artillery rockets.  Deafening explosions occurred one after another, and the burning houses increased the power of the arrow array, making the Jin army panic.  Just when the Jin army thought that after the arrow formation, there would be a fierce siege battle like a storm, the Tiger Army struck the golden bell and retreated.  = In the early morning of the 16th, as soon as the exhausted Jin army closed their eyes, the war drums of the Tiger Army sounded, and the siege battle began quickly.  Today¡¯s attack was far more violent than yesterday. Although the Tiger Army¡¯s heavy siege equipment was seriously insufficient, hundreds of thousands of troops attacked simultaneously from all directions, which still left the Jin Army in the city in a hurry and unable to respond.??.  All the soldiers of the Jin Army went into battle and fought from morning to dusk, without even having time to take a breath.  At dusk, the Jin army was exhausted, each one struggling to hold on, hoping that the Tiger Army would withdraw to rest after dark. However, the Tiger Army had no intention of stopping the war.  They lit piles of bonfires under the city and planned to attack continuously.  Wanyan Wuta knew that the Tiger Army was taking advantage of its strength to bring down the Jin Army, but it was impossible for the Tiger Army to continue fighting like this.  Now they have strong morale and sufficient physical strength, and they can still sustain it. However, after several days of fighting, the Tiger Army's physical strength is exhausted, and this method will not work.  Wanyan Wuta urgently summoned his men and asked them to grit their teeth, go to the front line in person, and share life and death with the soldiers. "The Tiger Army cannot hold on for a few days. As long as we can survive these two days, the morale and physical strength of the Tiger Army will definitely decline.  Then the situation will be favorable to us." "Du Tong, when will Youyan's reinforcements arrive?" Some generals were intimidated by the momentum of the Tiger Army and lost all confidence.  "The reinforcements must have arrived." Wanyan Wuta encouraged his men, "Youyan has hundreds of thousands of troops, and at least half of them can be sent south to support. The reason why they have not arrived at Zhending City is because of the needs of the war situation.  " Wanyan Wuta did not hide anything anymore and roughly explained Wanyan Gao and Wanyan Zongfu's offensive and defensive strategies for the entire Hebei war situation.  "The key point of this battle is to use the two battlefields of Zhending and Handan to hold back the Tiger Army, and use delaying strategies to consume the opponent, thus forcing the opponent to retreat. The right deputy commander personally defends Handan, while we hold on to Zhending Mansion, and Youyan reinforces  At the same time, we will provide assistance and prolong the war. When the time is right, Youyan's reinforcements will definitely break through the Hu Lie Army's interception and come to join our army." Wanyan Wuta's explanation stabilized the morale of the army to a certain extent.  The confidence of the generals was restored, and they rushed back to their respective theaters to urge the soldiers to persevere to the end.  We are exhausted.  The Tiger Army is no better. Now the competition is Yi Zhi. Whoever can persist to the end will be the winner.  = That night, Yue Fei summoned the commanders of all armies to deploy strategies to attack the city.  "The attacks for two consecutive days and one night have basically achieved the goal of exhausting the Jin army." Yue Fei said, "We will continue to attack in the first half of the night and will not give the Jin army time to rest. In the early morning, Dugu Shuai and Han Shuai led their troops to attack  At the water gate, the other armies launched the most violent attacks in order to hold the Jin army firmly and create opportunities for us to conquer the water gate. " At this point, Yue Fei looked up at Dugu Feng and Han Shizhong, "Are you all ready?  "Everything is ready, just waiting for the attack order." Han Shizhong said excitedly, "It's guaranteed to be perfect." Yue Fei nodded and turned to look at Sun Ge, "Are the ships ready?" "Everywhere you can find them has been searched."  , but the quantity is still not enough." Sun Ge pointed at Hong Yun and said, "Hong Shuai was a big help. He ordered the Sheliang Army to build ten giant sheepskin rafts in one day, which can transport a thousand soldiers into the city at one time.  , This can basically guarantee that we can send about two thousand soldiers into Zhending City in a short period of time." Yue Fei frowned and asked, "How long does it take for the boat and the sheepskin raft to go back and forth?" "It won't exceed.  "Two moments." "This time is too long." Yue Fei said immediately, "Try every means to shorten the troop transportation time." "I will discuss it with Hong Shuai in detail."  "At the beginning of the attack, our army will not have a stable foothold, and the Jin army will counterattack wildly. The number of troops at this moment is crucial." Yue Fei instructed, "No matter what method you use, the time to transport troops must be shortened to within a moment." Sun  There was a troubled look on his face, and his eyes looked at Hong Yun involuntarily.  Hong Yun thought for a moment and nodded slightly at him, "There should be a way." "How is the situation on the front line of Shahe River?" Zhang Gaoer suddenly asked.  "It's strange that the Jurchen reinforcements only fought for one day on the 12th, and then stopped." Yue Fei shook his head in confusion.  "We have been attacking for several days, but the opponent actually stood still. What does it mean? Although confrontation across the river can also contain our troops, the effect of fighting or not fighting is completely different. This should be very clear to the opponent." "What's the direction of Handan?" "  Our scouts have been paying close attention to the movements on both sides of the Zhang River, but so far, no Jin army has been found crossing the river. This is enough to show that the Jin army is still holding on to the line between Handan and Anyang." Yue Fei couldn't help but shook his head, "Wan Yan Gao and Wan Yan.  Yan Zongfu is too confident. Now that the situation in Hebei is clear and our army's attack intention is very clear, the Jurchens still dare to hold on to Handan, which shows that they don't take us seriously at all." Yue Fei sneered, "When we take Zhending, they will.  He's dead." Zhang Gaoer slowly narrowed his eyes and made two kills.Qi spurted out, "Before dawn, take Zhending City at all costs." = At ??the beginning of Xu Shi on the 16th, the Tiger Army launched another attack.  At the same time, Dugu Feng and Han Shizhong led the assault troops and approached the sluice under the cover of night.  Hong Yun and Wu Jie slowly followed up with the follow-up troops.  = At this time, Wanyan Gao, who was far away in Daming Mansion, was extremely anxious and once again asked Zong Fu to withdraw his troops as soon as possible.  In the past few days, Wanyan Gao kept persuading, but Zongfu was very stubborn and insisted on using the established strategy to defend Hebei.  Wanyan Gao was very decisive this time and left no room for negotiation. He originally planned to meet with Li Hu, but because this incident gave him a headache, the meeting had to be postponed.  However, after Wanyan Mu, who went south to support, was blocked by Shahe River, she had no determination to attack, and it was difficult to provide strong support to Wanyan Uta in the short term. Then, after the Hedong Tiger Army arrived at Zhending City, Wanyan Mu  Directly instructing the main army in the letter to withdraw north quickly.  Wanyan Yanmu¡¯s intention was clear at a glance, and it obviously contained some threatening meaning.  Wanyan Gao had to consider the overall situation and ordered Zongfu to abandon Handan and Anyang immediately and lead his army to withdraw north.  If something unexpected happened on the battlefield at this moment, the consequences would be disastrous.  "Tell Zongfu that if he is unwilling to accept this order, I will personally rush to Handan and lead the army to retreat." Wanyan Gao said angrily to Yang Pu, "We can't waste any more time and must retreat immediately." "I think.  The right deputy commander will not refuse this time," Yang Pu advised, "The situation on the battlefield is really critical. It would be better for the marshal to go north to Zhongshan overnight to take command in order to avoid any accidents that may cause the situation to suddenly deteriorate." Wan Yangao thought about it.  After a moment, he nodded and said, "Okay, I will go north overnight, and you will rush to Handan overnight. We must ensure the safety of the three towns in Hebei. This is our bottom line and cannot be compromised."
