Chapter 267: Xiao Yuzhen locks the key, Li Qi discusses victory or defeat. Yanjing!

On September 27, under the city of Yanjing, there were soldiers and horses, and there were no merchants within dozens of miles. Ali came out of Hu to lead his troops to the city, and a first officer came to the city to report the news. Xiao Yu immediately welcomed him when the city gate was opened. Ali came out of Hu to hurry up and apologized.

"I'll be late in the future, please punish me!"

Xiao Yu smiled bitterly on the horse's back and said, "General, don't blame Xiao for his own mistakes. At this moment, Datong Mansion and Zhending Mansion are all dangerous cities. It is justified to save any place. However, the general's troops and horses may not be enough to achieve the enemy's thieves' power, and the damage will be increased. The emperor should have received a report at this time, but before the imperial edict was issued, Xiao ordered the general to lead his troops to defend here, and he was still afraid that the general would refuse to come, so how dare he blame the general? Even if the Datong Mansion and Zhending Mansion were in trouble, the emperor blamed him and it was all on Xiao!"

Ali Chuhu's heart was sweating violently: the former sent troops to fight against the Wanggu tribe, but before the troops arrived in Dongshengzhou, they only encountered several small battles with Helan Khan. He heard that Hebei was in chaos. At that time, he made up his mind not to go to the grassland to fight with the Wanggu tribe, but went south to rescue Kaifeng. Unexpectedly, before he arrived at Zhending Prefecture, he had already heard that Niu Gao's army surrounded Dingding Prefecture, with no less than 60,000 or 70,000 troops, and there was no resistance wherever he passed. Although Ali Chuhu was furious, he was already angry.

He rushed to the road overnight, but the autumn summer was unbearable in August. When he approached within a hundred miles of Zhending Mansion, he had heard about how powerful the Yue family army was. After estimates, he knew that his troops were only 20,000, and it was impossible to resolve the siege of Zhending Mansion. However, due to the order of the Dajin Rule, he was in a dilemma. At this moment, Xiao Yu wrote a letter of military letter to the army and asked him to go to Yanjing quickly, and he was greatly relieved. Xingye led his army north and stayed away from the main force of the Yue family army!

More than 20,000 tired soldiers finally arrived at Yanjing City. After a battle, they had already traveled for two thousand miles and were exhausted. They were not tired. Rather than coming to help, it would be better to find a place to avoid the Yue family's troops! Ali knew that the Yue family's troops were in a difficult position, but he said to Xiao Yu verbally: "The last general was ordered by the Minister of the Duke's military order. It was originally necessary. When the emperor went north to attack the bandits, he once asked the Secretary of the Hebei soldiers and horses to not come? But if Zhending Mansion was in danger, the last general would stop the troops and not send them to stop the troops, they would like to break the bandits in one fell swoop to save the siege of Zhending. This was about to ask the Lord, why should he give up Zhending Mansion and retreat to Yanjing? If so, Hebei would not be owned by the Dajin!"

Xiao Yu and Ali walked with their bridles together. When they heard that Ali was overestimating their abilities, they spoke loudly, and they said disdainfully, and they thought to themselves: "The Great Jin Kingdom can be worth fighting, all of them are in Datong Prefecture, in front of Yanjing and Mobei Holy Lord. These children in Beijing are used to showing off their power and showing off their power in the past. How could they know the difficulty of fighting? If it were not for Yanjing's important land, they would not be lost. Where would they be the turn of such soldiers to help? But it was because the Jurchens grew up and should not be abandoned easily. How could I summon these fools to come here?"

But he did not dare to be so arrogant in his face. Thinking of the achievements of the Dragon on that day, Wanyan Liang was all the life and death partners who swore in Taimiao, and said solemnly: "General, you should not underestimate this bandit army. Now the army of Hebei reports to Yanjing. After careful calculation, the bandit army has no less than 200,000 troops. I don't know how many remnants there are in Hedong. If it is not dealt with at the time, I am afraid that the Great Jin Kingdom will find it difficult to recover Hebei! According to what I saw, if all the troops in Hebei can gather at this time, the city of Yanjing can still be able to fight. Otherwise, I will send troops everywhere, and I am afraid that Hebei will be defeated one by one. Hebei will not be under the rule of the Great Jin Kingdom! Yanjing locks the key to Hebei and keeps this city without losing. The Great Jin Kingdom still has the day to recover Hebei, so it is absolutely impossible to lose!"

Ali was stunned. The former was outside Zhending Mansion. Although he knew that his strength was far from the Yue family army, he did not escape after hearing the news. He was sweating behind him now. Fortunately, he had never fought with the Yue family army in Zhending Mansion. Otherwise, it would be hard to say whether he could enter Yanjing at this moment!

In fact, Xiao Yu expected that there was no exaggeration. When Yang Zaixing ordered all the troops in Hedong to be released, the Yue family army had a total of less than 160,000. At first, it was expected that it would not be a year or two to conquer Hebei. However, after a battle, Li Qiong stopped and Hebei was like entering a no-man. The Jin army defended the city was not a war-free soldier. Wherever the Yue family army passed, they would be defeated. The Han army surrendered along the way, and the army suddenly increased to more than 230,000, and then occupied 60% of the land in Hebei within three months. At present, only Hejian Prefecture, Zhending Prefecture, Datong Prefecture and Yanjing had not yet been taken down. Shandong had become the object of Wang Lan's army, and the rest of the land was in the hands of Yang Zaixing.

At the city of Zhending Prefecture, there were dozens of miles of camps, and the army was purged, surrounding the huge Zhending Prefecture like an iron barrel. The Jin people on the top of the city had already despaired. Although they were looking forward to the soldiers and horses from Hebei to come to help, they really couldn't think of any soldiers of this size that could fight against the Yue family army!

From Zezhou to Zhending Prefecture, within a thousand miles, there were chariots and horses like ants, and they followed one after another. Hong Hao worked hard in Zezhou for several days, and even summoned Zhang Hao and Li Ruoxu from Hedong to Zezhou to plan. More than 100,000 people were dispatched to transport food and grass for the army ahead. When Yue Fei made an expedition in the north, the civilians used only reached more than 700,000. At this time, the Yue family army was different. The older ones from the Taihang Mountains were all used from the Taihang Mountains and were used to self-sufficient. In addition, the newly surrendered Han army was basically serving the battlefield logistics, so they were able to ensure that the main force of the Yue family army had 150,000 without any worries!

On September 30, Yang Zaixing gathered all the generals, and Sun En reported: "All the generals, I have stepped on the White Army's reconnaissance cavalry report. Except for Datong Prefecture, the troops of Hejian Prefecture have not moved, and there are many people who escaped from the city in other prefectures and counties. There are no more Jin thieves coming to disturb the city within 200 miles around Zhending Prefecture. The former Ali went out to Hu to lead his troops to help, and stopped the troops within 100 miles. More than ten days ago, fled to Yanjing Prefecture and could not hide. To the north of Yanjing, there was no help since Xiao Yu led his army to Yanjing. Now Zhending Prefecture has become an isolated army. How to decide? It is all the strategies of the generals!"

After hearing this, the army was overjoyed, and there were whispering among the seats. However, Yang Zaixing was in the middle, and no one was willing to speak first. Yang Zaixing knew that he could not wait for a result. He smiled and said, "Ren Dejing raised all the troops of Xia, opposed Jin and surrendered to Song, and the vanguard forced him to Datong Prefecture. Although there was no attack on the city, it was originally believed that Xiao Haohu would not dare to act rashly; Hejian Prefecture was already at Wang Lan's mouth, and only when would he be left to chew heavily? Zhending Prefecture was used as bait, and he had already caught all the rescuers in Hebei long ago.

There is no more aftertaste at the moment, and it is really a waste of money. Interesting people are only in Yanjing. Xiao Yu had repeatedly gone to Jianghuai in his early years. He knew very well that the Yue family's army was in fact weak and solid. Therefore, he had a 30,000 Yanjing army and refused to go south to encounter a wall. Instead, he summoned Ali to go out to defend together. This was a wise move. If the matter in the world is not settled, only Wanyan Liang. You think that the Yue family's army should take Yanjing first, then go north to deal with Wanyan Liang, or siege the city of Yanjing to fight for help, and wait for Wanyan Liang to fall into the trap?"

After hearing this, Niu Gao couldn't help but jump out the first time when he saw the generals not speaking. There were few other qualified people in the army, so he was a little thicker-skinned: "Brother Yang used troops, and all the generals were dissatisfied. Now, who is the enemy of the Yue family army in Hebei? If it really doesn't work, do you want to hit the magic cannon. Are you still afraid that the Liaodong city wall will be too thick? Zhending Mansion is just around the corner. According to Lao Niu, it would be better to rush the army to Yanjing. When Wanyan Liang turned around, the army had already entered the Jurchens and the old place of the Bohai Sea. At that time, Wanyan Liang was lucky to be able to escape to Mobei to protect himself. How dare he grasp the power of the Yue family army?"

Although Yue Lin did not say anything, he nodded frequently, and agreed with this. Yang Zaixing's old subordinates in the tent refused to agree. There was a little noisy in the tent and there was a lot of discussion. Most of them thought that Deputy General Niu was very deceptive. Yue's army was invincible in the world, who would be afraid of?

Yang Zaixing's face was as calm as water, but his heart was depressed. In the world of Song Dynasty, those who know the fighting power of the Jin people are well-known, but there are no one else except Yang Zaixing. Not that there are brave men such as Bodi among the Jin people, but looking at Yanjing, Datong, Shangjing and other places, there are nearly 60,000 elite soldiers. Although Datong Mansion cannot act rashly, the main force of the Jin Kingdom of Wanyan Liang's troops is no less than 40,000. If all the troops and horses in Liaodong were raised, at least 60,000 to 70,000 troops could go south. It is not that the new soldiers and horses of Yue's army, who have only been trained for a year and a half, can easily be defeated. Among the 150,000 troops, only 50,000 old troops were elite soldiers who had been on the battlefield in Hedong. The rest of the troops had only won easy battles and did not know that the fighting was terrible. If you capture Yanjing, the difficulty should be above the cities in Hebei, and there will be injuries. Raising and fighting with Wanyan Liang's new victorious army is difficult to predict!

The tent gradually divided into two factions, one agreed to take Yanjing directly and then attack Huanglong, while the other faction supported the induce Wanyan Liang's army to fight outside Yanjing City, which could determine the world with one battle!

"General Li is familiar with the facts of the Jin people, can he have good plans?" Yang Zaixing saw that he had no plans for a long time, so he called Li Qi to offer advice.

"What the generals are concerned about at the end is a little different from you!" Li Qiji had been connecting the north and south of Taihang, and knew very well about the mobilization of Jin soldiers and horses. As soon as this statement came out, everyone was silent: "Although the Jin people were not many, they were certainly unable to win compared to the Yue family army, but compared with the old Song Dynasty, the number of people was a thousand miles apart! However, the Jurchen tribes lived in bitter and cold places for a long time, and the people were very brave. Compared with the Song people, they were fierce and easy to kill, and they could not judge the victory or defeat! In this battle, Yanjing could be settled in one fell swoop!

However, when Wanyan Liang received the news, he would not be willing to lead his troops south, but returned to the army to guard Shangjing to wait for the Yue family army to go. One was waiting for labor and gaining advantage in the territory. Two, the Yue family army went north at this time. When it arrived in Shangjing, it was already deep in winter, and the weather was cold and the earth was frozen. It was not even possible for the southerners to resist. In this way, the Jin people would be able to obtain the time. If the army went deep into the alone, the supply would be difficult, and the support would be disturbed by the Jin people, causing the army to be fed and food to be continued. This is called losing the advantage in the territory! The last general is ignorant and does not know what to say. Please decide!"

After Li Qi finished speaking, he was silent in the tent. It was already the end of September. The autumn wind was cold and the yellow leaves were flying. When he captured Yanjing, it would be early winter. If he raised his troops north, what Li Qi said was exactly the key point. Most of the generals were southerners. He didn't know that the wind and snow in Liaodong were severe. But at this time, Li Qi said, how can he not guess? Since ancient times, the Jurchens have always been afraid of the heat in the southern expedition, while the Song people have never gone deep into Liaodong, so they may not be able to pass the severe cold. How could the army be so strong in the Tang Dynasty? How could it be comparable to a Goryeo? However, those who finally returned home in a defeat, supplies, and severe cold are the main reasons!

Yang Zaixing thought it was right, but refused to impose it on the generals. After Li Qi finished speaking, he began to convince everyone in the tent. When he discussed the strategy in detail, he was already roughly inclined to fight in Yanjing!
