Wanyan Alin's death seems to be a inevitable result.

He was not killed by Su Yonglin, nor was he killed by any soldier from Shengjie Army, nor was he killed by a traitor with bad intentions around him.

He killed himself.

On the way to flee in a hurry, thinking about his defeat in the main force, Wanyan Alin knew that he would not be able to get Wanyan Liang's understanding, and would even bring disaster to his family, causing his family to be treated cruelly, and end up in a miserable way.

If you die in the battlefield, you may be able to save your family's lives...

With such a sad mentality, Wanyan Alin drew his sword and committed suicide under despair and high pressure.

In this way, even if the family cannot get the affordable living conditions, they can at least survive. This is his last expectation.

He committed suicide very simply. His personal soldiers wanted to save him, but he couldn't have time to take away his knife.

He just wiped his neck so simply, then covered his neck and fell straight down from the horse, his body trembling and twisting for a while, and he died.

He was so rude that he didn't even want to fight Su Yonglin again and avenge himself.

After he committed suicide, the Jin cavalry, who had further lost their backbone, were even more unaware of what to do.

Especially the personal soldiers who were responsible for protecting him, they didn't know what to do.

The Lord was dead, but they were still alive, and for the higher rulers, it was a traitor.

Either die together or live together, how can the master and his personal soldiers still survive after their death?

So some of the personal soldiers committed suicide in despair, but some of the personal soldiers were unwilling to die, so they embarked on the road of escape with other cavalry.

As for where to escape, they have different attitudes.

Some tried to run north to see if they could find a way out.

Some tried to run west, thinking that running north would definitely lead to death, and the court would not let them go, and ran west to Guanzhong to live in vain and perhaps still have the possibility of survival.

Some plan to run to the beach, trying to find a ship and flee directly to their hometown in Liaodong. They live in their hometown in hiding their own name, and maybe they can live a better life.

Less than 3,000 defeated soldiers who followed Wanyan Alin out of the battlefield soon scattered, lost their establishment and went their separate ways.

Su Yonglin didn't expect this.

That difficult opponent actually ended his life so simply, and he didn't even want to take revenge. If he was defeated normally, shouldn't he think about making a comeback and revenge?

Is the trial and error cost of Jin Dynasty so high?

Of course, there were many things he could not imagine, just like Zhao Kaishan, and Zhao Kaishan could not imagine that Su Yonglin could actually achieve such a major victory.

It took nearly three months to finally break through Nanle County, Zhao Kaishan, who had finally captured Nanle County, could not have thought that Su Yonglin and Sun Ziyi had completed the merger at this moment.

Su Yonglin really became the general manager of Hebei in his mouth, and even the King of Hebei, gained a firm foothold in Hebei, gained the respect and obedience of the rebels, and was about to cause greater turmoil here.

When Su Yonglin galloped and made a bloody battle, Zhao Kaishan was also fighting bloody, but he just didn't move forward.

Nanle County is like an iron wall. Zhao Kaishan really feels that he may never be able to defeat this county town.

It is obviously just a county town, not that high or that wide or deep moat, but why is it so difficult to fight?

He used all his skills and threw all kinds of firearms and huge stones into the city desperately. He even felt that the city should be full of ruins, but he still couldn't take the county town.

He almost filled the moat, and the army repeatedly fought bloody battles with the Jin soldiers defending the city, but they were beaten back every time and could not break through.

He also tried to dig tunnels and attacked at night, but they were all discovered by the Jin army in the city, and they were killed by the soldiers and were completely defeated and found nothing.

Because the army was too exhausted, he had to transfer the wounded and sick back to the base in Shandong, and then send people back to continue recruiting troops to supplement the amount of troops lost too much due to siege battles, so that the troops could remain at a scale of around 80,000.

In the past few months of siege, many troops have even changed from officers to soldiers. Many troops have died of battle, illness, and freezing to death in a system, but this is not a problem in Zhao Kaishan's eyes.

Anyway, he never regarded the army composed of ordinary people as humans. Except for a few personal soldiers and elite soldiers, everything else in the army is consumable.

But people's hearts will not change because of Zhao Kaishan's indifference.

The views of Zhao Kaishan and the Restoration Army in the entire Shandong are changing.

Because the strong men were drawn to the battlefield many times, the people who came back were either dead or wounded. The miserable appearance made many people doubt Zhao Kaishan.

Moreover, the rewards and pensions that Zhao Kaishan promised were not in place. The private families who lost their family did not receive the pensions and war bounties they deserved, and the wealth they earned with their lives was not obtained.

So people felt deceived. The Restoration Army was no different from other troops, but they were just shouting slogans. They no longer actively responded to the Restoration Army's recruitment order, and even expressed resistance.

When officials appointed by the Restoration Army issued recruitment orders, local people who were willing to respond actively were no longer willing to join the army, so that the recruitment efficiency of the Restoration Army was greatly reduced.

This directly affected the frontline war.

When Zhao Kaishan couldn't recruit enough troops, he followed Zhao Xiang's bad idea and decided to force people from all over the country to join the army.

He ordered Zhao Xiang to be responsible for this matter and asked Zhao Xiang to lead his troops back to Shandong to recruit troops with armed troops to see who dared not come.

In short, you have to come even if you come, and you have to come even if you don’t come even if you don’t come.

At the same time, he gave a lot of money to the powerful landlords in Shandong, and exchanged them for many powerful men they controlled to join the army.

With a two-pronged approach, the number of troops was guaranteed and the main force of the siege was maintained.

While Zhao Kaishan attacked Nanle County, Zhao Zuoliang, as the head commander and Zhao Kaihe as the chief army, achieved great strategic results in Huazhou and Xiangzhou.

This part of the army successively occupied Huazhou, Xiangzhou, Weizhou and other almost abandoned states, and made great progress.

Zhao Zuoliao abides by the earliest policy of restoring the army, attacks the Jurchens, and treats other people of all ethnic groups well, so he is very popular among the people. He also takes the opportunity to expand his army and increase his troops to more than 40,000, which is a huge momentum.

Zhao Zuolliang does not have much military skills, but he has one advantage, which is that he knows how much he has.

He will not command blindly, and will not do things like outsiders and experts. He is not good at commanding battles, so he lets those who are good at commanding battles do it. He watched silently from the side without interfering.

He brought the expedition to the expedition to the White Army and Zhou Zhi as the commander of the commander. He was not good at commanding himself, so he asked Zhou Zhi to be responsible for commanding the battle.

Zhou Zhi had some military talent, and he commanded the whole way properly without making any mistakes. He led the Restoration Army to advance smoothly, which made Zhao Zuoliang very satisfied.

So these battles were actually commanded by Zhou Zhi.

But not everyone can see themselves clearly like Zhao Zuoliang and be open to reality.

They often don’t know how much they have, and always want to show off their skills in front of professionals, show their "abilities", and then pat their butts and leave, leaving a mess, and let professionals clean up for themselves.

Zhao Kaihe is such a person.

During the battle, Zhao Kaihe wanted to re-show his "talent" several times, and wanted to use his identity as the chief supervisor to do something, command the command in a blind manner, criticize Zhou Zhi's planned marching route and combat plan, and demand to adopt his own approach.

Zhao Kaihe and Zhao Kaishan have a close relationship. Zhou Zhi is not strong in character and dare not refute it. The other generals are frightened by Zhao Kaihe's identity and strength, and dare not argue with him. They can only accept it.

But Zhao Zuoling was not afraid of Zhao Kaihe.

As an elder, Zhao Zuoliang still has a certain deterrent force against Zhao Kaihe. In front of him, Zhao Kaihe cannot make a fuss.

"Don't join in the things you don't understand. Trouble and mess around, and lose this army. Look at how you can deal with you!"

He criticized Zhao Kaihe for his blind command, suppressed Zhao Kaihe outside the military operation decision-making circle, and supported Zhou Zhi's plan.

Although Zhao Kaihe was annoyed, he did not dare to refute Zhao Zuoliang.

As it turns out, what Zhou Zhi did was right.

Therefore, the operation of the Restoration Army this time was much smoother than that of Zhao Kaishan's main force.

At the end of November, approaching December, after learning that Zhao Zuoliang's march had successfully made great contributions, Zhao Kaishan, who was short of soldiers, ordered Zhao Zuoliang to bring the main force of the army to Nanle County.

Zhao Zuoliang met with Zhao Kaishan in mid-December and was very dissatisfied with the tragic situation under Nanle City at that time.

He couldn't interfere in the military, but Zhao Zuoliang had some opinions on other aspects.

"You can do anything like forced recruitment. What are you thinking about when you open up the mountain? If we force the people to join the army like the Jin thieves, what is the difference between us and the Jin thieves?

If we are no different from the Jin thieves, how can we win the support of the people when the enemy is strong and we are weak? How can we develop without support?"
