    An error occurred while processing private documents On the 17th, Wanyan Yanmu and Han Qinghe received a report from the scouts.  Zhending city fell.  The two of them were immediately stunned and extremely shocked.  The strength of the Tiger Army has reached a terrifying level. The Jin Army's defensive strategy has completely failed. The Jin Army in Hebei is in danger, and Hebei is imminent.  Wanyan Yanmu immediately reported to Huanglong Mansion and urgently informed Youyan Wanyan Xiyin, asking him to consider reinforcements in Hebei.  In fact, the possibility of Youyan's army going south to reinforce is very small. Youyan only has a few hundred thousand troops. The main force must guard Yanjing and block the Tiger Army in the direction of Juyongguan. The other part must guard the various passes in Yanshan and protect Pingding.  On Zhou Road, Wanyan's mother went south again with an army of 50,000 people. The troops that Wanyan Xiyin could deploy were extremely limited. Unless the tiger army gave up the attack on Juyong Pass, Wanyan Xiyin could only look at the sky and sigh.  Wanyan's mother sent another hundred thousand urgent reports to Wanyan Gao, asking him to withdraw his troops as quickly as possible and withdraw all the main forces in Hebei to the Zhongshan and Hejian lines.  The withdrawal of troops cannot be delayed any longer. If there is any further delay, the main force in Hebei may be surrounded by the Tiger Army.  "What should we do? Should we withdraw Anxi's defense?" Han Qinghe asked in panic.  Wanyan's mother shook her head, "The purpose of the Hu Lie Army's attack on Zhending Prefecture was to cut off the connection between Youyan and Hebei. To surround our main force in Hebei Province at the line of Handan and Daming Prefecture. Now that they have captured Zhending City,  Next, we must march eastward along the Hutuo River and attack Shenzhou and Hejian Prefecture to cut off the retreat of our main force in Hebei. Therefore, we must block them at the Boye and Raoyang lines to prevent them from attacking Hejian Prefecture, thereby ensuring that our Hebei force  The main force was safely withdrawn. "Zhending Prefecture and Hejian Prefecture are about three hundred miles apart, separated by the Qizhou, Shenzhou and Yongning armies.  Boye is the seat of the Yongning Army, and Raoyang is the county seat of Shenzhou. To the east of them is Hejian Prefecture.  Wanyan Yanmu deliberately rushed to Boye and Raoyang ahead of the Tiger Army, blocking the Tiger Army and buying enough time for the main force of the Hebei Jin Army to withdraw to Hejian Mansion.  "It's too late, it's definitely too late." Han Qinghe was very frustrated and shook his head repeatedly, "It's six to seven hundred miles from Handan to Hejian Mansion, and there are several rivers to cross in the middle. It will take at least ten days for our army to arrive.  Arriving at Hejian Mansion, Zhending's Tiger Army will be able to reach Hejian Mansion within two or three days. We can't stop them with our small number of troops. To say the least, even if we defend Boye and Rao Yang,  The Tiger Army can also rush into Hejian Mansion along the Hulu River, and they can also surround our main force in Hebei." Wanyan Yanmu looked grim, her thick eyebrows furrowed, and she was staring at the map, unable to do anything.  "Also, you led the army to quickly support Boye and Rao Yang. What about Anxi? Does Zhongshan still want it?" Han Qinghe continued.  "Since the Tiger Army can capture Zhending within two days, they can also capture Anxi within two days. If Anxi is lost and Zhongshan falls, the Tiger Army can immediately kill Baozhou, Xiongzhou and  Bazhou's front line surrounded all our troops south of Baigou." "The Tiger Army has the strength to eat us?" Wanyan Yanmu sneered.  He has an army of 50,000, and Wanyan Zongfu has at least 200,000 horses. When the two armies join together, their strength is enough to compete with the Tiger Army.  Wanyan's mother rushed to Hejian Mansion in a hurry, just because she was sure to help the main force in Hebei withdraw safely.  "It is true that the Tiger Army does not have the strength to eat us, but the whole of Hebei will be lost." Han Qinghe sighed bitterly, "Hebei is lost, can we use Baigou to stop the Tiger Army? Daibei Tiger Army is attacking Juyong Pass, if  The Tiger Army on the battlefield in Hebei took advantage of the situation and rushed into Youyan, attacking from two sides. How confident are we in holding Yanjing? Even if we hold on, if we suffer heavy losses, the Khitans and desert tribes will come back and fight against the Tiger Army in the north and south.  With a flanking attack, the situation in the Kingdom of Jin is extremely critical." Han Qinghe's words made Wanyan Yan's mother secretly horrified.  When leaving Yanjing, Wanyan Xiyin repeatedly told him that no matter what the outcome of this battle was.  The Jurchens must guard Youyan, this is the bottom line.  If you want to defend Youyan, the best way is to firmly control the three towns in Hebei and use the land of the three towns and Baigou as barriers to stop the Tiger Army.  Now that Zhending Mansion has been lost, if Zhongshan is lost again and the Tiger Army approaches Baigou and threatens Yanjing, the Jin Army will not be able to hold on to Hejian Mansion. The final result will be very bad and even endanger the safety of the country.  Wanyan¡¯s mother was in a dilemma, unable to choose.  If we quickly support Hejian Prefecture, Zhongshan will definitely be lost. If Zhongshan is lost, the three towns in Hebei will definitely be destroyed. If the three towns in Hebei are destroyed, Yanjing will be in danger; if we stick to Zhongshan, then Hejian Prefecture will most likely fall into the hands of the enemy, which will lead to  The main force of the Jin Army in Hebei fell into the siege of the Tiger Army, and the final result may be even worse. Not only did the main force in Hebei suffer heavy losses, but all three towns in Hebei fell, and even Youyan was in danger.  Time waits for no one, and the opportunity to fight is fleeting. Wanyan's mother is so anxious that she doesn't know what to do.  Of course Han Qinghe didn¡¯t want Wanyan¡¯s mother to leave Zhongshan, soMotivated to put forward suggestions, gathered troops, and launched an attack on Zhending.  Attacking Zhending can firmly hold back part of the Tiger Army.  Of course, it would be better if the main force of the Tiger Army could be held back, but it seems impossible at present. The Tiger Army will not lose the opportunity to surround the Hebei Jin Army. However, due to the attack of the Zhongshan Jin Army, the Tiger Army will definitely not be able to  Most of the troops were sent to the battlefield of Hejian Prefecture, which was beneficial to the troops in the direction of Hejian Prefecture to hold on to the city.  As soon as Wanyan Gao and Wanyan Zongfu withdrew the main force of Hebei to Hejian Mansion, the Hu Lie Army's encirclement and annihilation intention failed. In this way, the Jin Army could launch a full-scale attack, retake Zhending Mansion, and ensure control of the three towns in Hebei.  Wanyan¡¯s mother weighed it again and again, and finally accepted Han Qinghe¡¯s suggestion.  Although the strength of the Tiger Army is very strong, the strength of the Jin Army is not weak. In his opinion, Wanyan Gao and Wanyan Zongfu can safely withdraw to Hejian Mansion. The Tiger Army tried to surround the Jin Army with almost the same strength.  The idea is simply an unrealistic fantasy.  = On the 18th, Wanyan Yanmu and Han Qinghe launched another attack.  This time Jin Jun tried his best and did not dare to slack off at all.  Luo Lan, Wang Gui and Lin Chong commanded the army to fight hard.  On the same day, Zhang Gaoer and Gao Baolong led their troops to attack Shenzhou.  Li Jin and Dugu Feng followed up with their troops.  Yue Fei was very happy after receiving the news from the Shahe battlefield. The Jin army's counterattack was exactly what he wanted.  "The Zhongshan Jin Army is in a dilemma, and fighting with all their strength is their best choice." Sun Ge stroked his beard and said with a smile.  "The Jurchens have already lost Zhending Mansion. If Zhongshan is lost again, not only will Hebei be unable to defend it, but even Youyan will be in danger." "Wanyan Zongfu has an army of 200,000 in his hands. He is very powerful. With such strength  , it is indeed possible to retreat safely to Hejian Mansion." Huang Zong also smiled, "However, Wanyan Talan and the Shandong Jin Army have learned from their mistakes. Once Zongfu hears that Zhending is lost, our army will attack Hejian Mansion with all its strength.  "We have troops waiting along the Hutuo River and Hulu River, and we must not dare to retreat to Hejian via Jizhou to avoid repeating the same mistake." "Whether we can force Zongfu to go directly north to Zhending depends on whether we can quickly capture Hejian Mansion.  "Yue Fei shook his hand, with a hint of worry on his brow, "The Zhongshan Jin Army is counterattacking with all its strength, and its intention is very clear, to hold us back and help the Hejian Jin Army hold on to the city." "There is no need to worry," Sun Ge said.  He said confidently, "The main force of the Hebei Jin Army is in Handan, and Youyan's southward reinforcements are contained by us in Zhongshan. The number of enemy troops in the direction of Hejian Prefecture is limited. If we are lucky, we may be unstoppable."  "Remember when the Jin army went south and swept through the three towns in Hebei?" Huang Zong also comforted, "In those three towns in Hebei, only the Zhending army and the people tenaciously resisted the enemy. Zhongshan and Hejian both surrendered after hearing the news. It can be seen from this that  The bureaucrats in the two places are as timid as rats and are completely vulnerable. These bureaucrats were basically retained by the Jurchens. Now that they see that the Jin Army is in ruins and our Tiger Army is invincible in the Northern Expedition, they will definitely surrender." "Shameless.  The disciples have their own way of survival." Sun Ge said contemptuously, "The commander-in-chief only needs to send letters to the ghost commanders and treasure commanders, asking them to shoot letters to persuade them to surrender wherever they go, promising high-ranking officials and generous salaries, and it will have miraculous results.  ." Yue Fei hesitated for a moment and nodded slightly.  He thought of Liu Yu and his son. After the Central Plains War last year, Yue Fei broke his promise and acquiesced to Wang Yuan to kill Liu Yu, his father and his son and a group of Shandong officials. This incident won the favor of the people of the Central Plains and Shandong, but the officials in Hebei who sent gold  But because of this, the rabbit is sad and the fox is deeply afraid, and he may not believe the promise of the Tiger Army.  = On the 18th, Wanyan Gao arrived in Jizhou and received a letter from Wanyan Gao¡¯s mother and learned that Zhending was lost.  He immediately changed his face in shock. He never dreamed that Zhending City would be lost in just two days. This was simply unbelievable.  The loss of Zhending City completely disrupted the Jin army's deployment.  Wanyan Gao regretted this. If he had known this, he should not have hesitated at the beginning. He should have rushed to Handan in person to ask Zong Fu to withdraw his troops. If everything goes well, the main force has now withdrawn to Zhongshan and Hejian, and Zhending City has also  It would not be lost, and the entire Hebei war situation would not fall into extreme passivity.  Wanyan Gao immediately ordered Zongfu to evacuate Handan as quickly as possible.  At this time, Liu Yanzong reminded Wanyan Gao that Handan was more than 700 miles away from Hejian Prefecture, and several rivers had to be crossed in the middle. Li Hu's army was pursuing it with all its strength. If the Jin army wanted to withdraw to Hejian Prefecture, it would at least require  For more than ten days, if Li Hu's pursuit is extremely fierce, then, let alone ten days, I am afraid that Zongfu and his army will not be able to reach Hejian Mansion within half a month.  What does half a month mean?  This means that the Hedong Tiger Army has not only reached Hejian Mansion, but may have even captured Hejian City, and built a solid blocking battle formation between the Hutuo River and the Hulu River, cutting off the Jin army's northward retreat.  Wanyan Gao felt dizzy and felt a strongThe sense of breath made him almost breathless, "What should we do? How can we reverse the situation of the war?" "Wanyan Yanmu and Han Qinghe obviously predicted the development of the war situation and are doing their best to suppress Zhending and try to hold back the Hedong Tiger.  The Liejun will buy time for our army to withdraw to Hejian, but his troops are not strong enough to contain them." Liu Yanzong sighed, "The main force of the Lieutenant Army from Hedong will soon reach Hejian Mansion. Zong.  If Zongfu withdraws his troops according to the original plan, he will definitely fall into a deadlock. In this case, we might as well let Zongfu go directly north, and take advantage of the main force of the Hedong Tiger Army to attack Hejian Mansion, rush into Zhending, and fight with Zhongshan  The Jin army attacked from the north and south and recaptured Zhending City, thus turning the entire war situation around. " From Handan to Zhending, there is a wide and unimpeded road more than five hundred miles away.  Zongfu can leave some troops to stop Li Hu in Handan, while the main force rushes northward, traveling day and night, and can reach Zhending in four days. Then he can follow the example of the Hu Lie Army and conquer Zhending with an absolutely superior force. In this way, the overall situation can be determined.  After carefully weighing the pros and cons, Wanyan Gao categorically accepted Liu Yanzong's suggestion and asked Zongfu to go directly north to attack Wanyan's mother from the north and south to recapture Zhending City.  "We rushed to Hejian Mansion immediately." Wanyan Gao said, "Abandon Daming Mansion, abandon Jizhou, gather forces, defend Hejian Mansion, hold back the Tiger Army, and coordinate Zongfu's northward attack."
