    An error occurred while processing private documents On the second day of April, Yue Fei commanded the army to besiege on all sides.  ,, and used firearms to tear apart the enemy formation.  The Jin army held on tenaciously and resisted desperately.  At dusk, Yue Fei gave a decisive order, and all the armies took turns to attack and fight continuously, using the superior strength and physical strength of the Tiger Army to drag down the Jin Army and drag it to death until it collapsed.  At the same time, Li Hu met Wanyan Gao in Shahe.  Li Hu's conditions exceeded the bottom line of the Jurchens, and Wanyan Gao firmly refused to return Yanshan Mansion. Although Li Hu threw out a "bait", this "bait" was illusory. For Wanyan Gao, once he lost Yanshan Mansion,  , his political future in Huanglong Mansion is basically over, and the title of "Deputy Chu" is even further out of reach.  Li Hu sneered secretly, scorning Wanyan Gao's persistence.  The Tiger Army was sure of victory in this battle. After Yue Fei wiped out Zongfu on the Luancheng battlefield, the army quickly moved northward, with absolute certainty of severely injuring Wanyan Yanmu, and then joined forces with the Daibei Jin Army to attack Yanjing in two directions.  Surround Yanjing.  At that time, Wanyan Gao's strength will suffer an unprecedented blow. The royal faction headed by Wu Qimai will be at a disadvantage in the power struggle in Huanglong Mansion. The Jurchen Alliance headed by Zong Han will surely take advantage of the situation to counterattack.  If Wu Qimai wants to defeat his opponent and continue to firmly control the power of the Kingdom of Jin, he must seek powerful foreign aid, and Li Hu is obviously his only choice.  Li Hu¡¯s offer of the alluring condition of ¡°Vice-President¡± at this moment is precisely based on the future world structure.  After the Northern Expedition of the Tiger Army, China and Turkey were basically unified. The next war is not to expand territory, but to stabilize China and Turkey. Defending the enemy outside the country will be China's main military strategy in the future.  Based on this strategy, Li Hu needed to create a three-legged situation in the north, especially to provoke a war between the Khitans and the Jurchens, so as to ensure the security of Central China.  To this end, Li Hu not only wanted to maintain a close relationship with the Khitans, but also negotiated a peace and alliance with the Jurchens, and used the powerful power of China and Turkey to influence or even interfere in the national policies of the two countries.  Starting from this goal, Li Hu hopes to find allies in the Kingdom of Jin, and Wu Qimai and Wanyan Gao are obviously Li Hu's only choices.  Zong Han is an outstanding strategist. He has always adhered to the development strategy of "first north and then south". Facts have proved that his view is completely correct. But now the situation has changed. The Jin Kingdom has lost its best opportunity to conquer the desert.  The two fronts encountered huge resistance at the same time, and the survival and development of the Jin Kingdom were in crisis. The power struggle in Huanglong Mansion in the future is actually a battle for survival and development strategies.  Whoever can win peace in China at this time can continue to control the power of Huanglong Mansion, and Li Hu can help Wu Qimai and Wanyan Gao do this.  After Wanyan Gao heard Li Hu's suggestion, he quickly understood the key to it, but he did not admit his failure. He also tried his best to reverse the crisis and try to turn defeat into victory.  That night, Li Hu wrote to Yue Fei to speed up the attack and annihilate Zong Fu as soon as possible.  = On the fourth day of April, under the continuous crazy attacks of the Tiger Army, the Jin Army finally couldn't hold on any longer, and all lines of defense collapsed one after another.  On the afternoon of the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, the Jin army was completely wiped out. Zongfu, Zongbi and more than a dozen senior Jin army generals were captured. Many Jin army generals such as Han Lugu and Guo Yaoshi were killed in the battle. Tens of thousands of Jin army soldiers were captured. So far,  Hebei is about to be recovered.  That night, Yue Fei ordered Gao Baolong, Zhang Gaoer, Li Jin, and Zhe Kecun to lead their troops to the Shahe battlefield on the morning of the fifth day.  The rest of the army followed.  = On the fifth day of the lunar month, Li Hu and Wanyan Gao were still negotiating in Shahe.  In order to delay time, Li Hu deliberately made concessions, but Wanyan Gao was worried and urged Li Hu several times to stop attacking the Jin army on the Luancheng battlefield.  Li Hu had already received the news of the great victory in Luancheng. Wanyan Gao received the news from the scouts that night and was shocked to learn that a large number of tiger troops were marching north from the Luancheng battlefield.  Due to the blockade of the Hu Lie scouts, the Jin army scouts could not approach the Luancheng battlefield. No one knew whether Zongfu and his army were safe, but judging from the mobilization of the Hulie army, even if Zongfu still persisted on the Luancheng battlefield, it is estimated that  It can't be sustained for long, otherwise Li Hu would not have mobilized troops from Luancheng to go north.  What is Li Hu¡¯s purpose of moving his troops northward now?  Wanyan Gao, Wanyan Yanmu, Liu Yanzong and others had different opinions.  Yang Pu was very pessimistic, thinking that Zongfu had been defeated and was dying. Li Hu moved his troops north to hold back the Jin army in the direction of Shahe, and then besieged Zhongshan together with the main force.  "Marshal, withdraw your troops. Immediately withdraw to the front line of Xiongzhou and Baozhou, defend Baigou, prevent the tiger army from advancing into Youyan, and ensure the safety of Yanjing." Yang Pu's suggestion made Wanyan Gao, Wanyan Yan Mu and others  People were in panic, and Wanyan Gao was even more confused, not knowing what to do.  On the sixth day of the lunar month, the scouts reported urgently that a large number of tiger troops crossed north to Muchaogou and arrived at the Shahe battlefield in the afternoon.  That night.  Find out about LuanThe Jin army scouts on the battlefield reported that the sound of drums and trumpets could no longer be heard on the Luancheng battlefield, and Zongfu and his army were in danger.  At this time, Wanyan Yanmu and Liu Yanzong also had a premonition that the situation was not good. Together with Yang Pu, they persuaded Wanyan Gao to withdraw his troops overnight to avoid any unexpected situation.  Wanyan Gao could not abandon Zongfu and the hundreds of thousands of Hebei Jin troops, and he did not dare to gamble with his own political future, so he thought twice and decided to hold on for one more day. If the main force of the Tiger Army on the Luancheng battlefield began to move north tomorrow,  That was enough to prove that Zongfu and his army had been completely wiped out, and the Jin army on the Shahe battlefield could only retreat.  That afternoon, Li Hu continued to negotiate with Wanyan Gao. One of the two had sinister intentions, the other was uneasy, and the negotiations made no progress.  On the seventh day of the lunar month, Jin Army scouts reported to Yan Gao again. The main force of the Tiger Army on the Luancheng battlefield rushed to Zhending yesterday morning. The Luancheng battle was over. Zongfu and the Hebei Jin Army were completely wiped out.  Wanyan Gao was extremely sad and immediately ordered the army to abandon Zhongshan and evacuate to the Baigou line as quickly as possible.  = Wanyan Gao¡¯s order has just been conveyed.  Before the Jin army had time to react, the Tiger Army on the other side of the Shahe suddenly launched a fierce attack. Thousands of Tiger soldiers crossed the Shahe and fought bloody battles with the Jin Army.  Wanyan Gao did not dare to hesitate at this time. He decisively ordered Liu Yanzong and Han Qinghe to lead their troops to stop the enemy. He and Wanyan Yanmu quickly evacuated with the main force of the Jin army.  The offensive of the fierce tiger army is like a tide.  Li Hu personally went to the front line to command.  Gao Baolong, Zhang Gaoer, Li Jin, Zhe Kecun, Luo Lan, Wang Gui and Lin Chong each led their elite troops and fought to the other side one after another.  The morale of the Jin army has been weakened, and the main force retreated first, causing the morale of the army to waver.  Although Liu Yanzong and Han Qinghe fought back desperately, they did not have enough troops.  The soldiers under his command suffered heavy losses under the tidal attack of the Tiger Army. Fortunately, they were able to defend until dusk due to the dangerous obstacle of Shahe River.  After dark, the Tiger Army lit bonfires and continued the attack.  The Jin army was so frightened that they could no longer hold on. The battle formation was broken through, and the army collapsed quickly. About 30,000 Jin soldiers turned around and fled.  The Tiger Army pursued them all the way and arrived at Anxi City on the eve of dawn, surrounding this important Zhongshan town.  Liu Yanzong and Han Qinghe knew that Wanyan Gao had left with the main force and that it was impossible to defend the city with a bunch of defeated soldiers, so they passed through the city and continued to flee with thousands of troops.  The civil and military officials in the city ran faster and disappeared long ago.  At dawn on the eighth day of the lunar month, Gao Baolong led his army to capture Anxi City, and then led his army to continue northward to pursue the enemy.  That night, Yue Fei led his main army to Anxi City and met Li Hu.  = At the late-night military meeting, Li Hu told Yue Fei and other generals his idea of ??attacking Youyan.  "Our attack was very fast. More than 300,000 troops advanced together. The Jin army was unable to resist it, let alone stop our progress at the front line of Baigou." Li Hu said with a smile, "Soon, old Dong Shuai and Hu Shuai  General He Wang will lead the main force from the north to attack Youyan. Our two armies will attack from the north and south, and we will definitely be able to surround Yanjing around the 15th day. " "There are hundreds of thousands of Jin troops in Youyan, and the Jin troops in the direction of Beijing and Liaodong are on the way.  Heading south quickly, we will form a decisive battle with the Jin army under the city of Yanjing." Li Hu looked at the generals, and the smile on his face became wider. "The next question is whether we and the Jurchens are determined to fight a life-and-death battle."  Yue Fei and the generals listened quietly without expressing their opinions.  The Tiger Army can basically ensure the recovery of Hebei. As for Youyan, that is indeed the ultimate goal of the Northern Expedition.  But because Youyan is the gateway to the Kingdom of Jin, the Jurchens are desperate. The Battle of Yanjing is bound to be a bloody battle, a protracted battle, and the current situation in China cannot sustain this decisive battle for a long time.  "We have the determination and confidence to regain Youyan, but as the Northern Expedition continues, the domestic situation becomes increasingly unfavorable to us." Li Hu said, "Similarly, the Jurchens also face the same problems as us. In this battle, they  They can't afford to lose, but the situation in the north is very unfavorable to them." Li Hu paused for a moment and said slowly: "So, the final victory in Yanjing's battle depends not on force, but on negotiation." "Yue Fei and others.  The generals looked at each other, probably guessing what Li Hu was thinking.  "I ask you to rush into Youyan as quickly as possible, clear the periphery of Yanjing as quickly as possible, seize more cities as quickly as possible, and strive to gain victory in Youyan before the Jurchen reinforcements arrive in Yanjing.  We must achieve certain results in order to gain more advantages in the subsequent negotiations." Li Hu waved his arm slightly, "The ultimate goal of the Northern Expedition is to regain Yanshan Mansion." = "Hu Lie's army was overwhelming and captured Baozhou and An.  On the 11th, the Su army forcibly crossed Heiludi, crossed Baigou, and entered Youyan.  On the 13th, Gao BaoLong led his army to capture Fan Yang, the capital of Zhuozhou. On the 15th, Zhang Gaoer and Zhe Kecun captured Liangxiang and joined forces with Wang Yaobu, the fierce army of the Northern Tigers, at the foot of Yanjing City.  On the 16th, Dong Zhongsun and Hu Jiayong led their troops to attack Tanzhou in the north of Yanshan Prefecture, and fought fiercely with the Jin army at Niulan Mountain.  On the 17th, Gao Baolong and Abaddon led their troops to Jizhou in the east of Yanshan Prefecture, and fought fiercely with the Jin army in Yuyang.  On the same day, Li Hu sent a letter to Yanjing, inviting Wanyan Gao to continue negotiations.
