On the tenth day of the day, kill the tiger's mouth

The ancient name of the Hukou was called the Shenhekou, in the Tang Dynasty it was called the Bailang Pass, and in the Song Dynasty it was called the Yalang Pass, which was commonly called the Hukou. The terrain of the Hukou was dangerous, with two mountains standing together, and the Cangtou River flowing through it, forming a Dou-shaped valley, and the pass was natural.

Killing Hukou is in the northwest direction of Datong, Zhenchuan Fort is in the north north of Datong, and Yehu Ridge is in the northeast direction of Datong. These three places are important passes to defend Datong. Because Zhenchuan Fort is closest to Datong, only a hundred miles away, and the terrain is flat, there are many forts, the defense is the most stringent, and the attack is the most difficult. Generally speaking, when attacking Datong from the north, the main attack direction will be Killing Hukou. This is not because Killing Hukou is easy to attack, but because most of the strong enemies in the north are concentrated in the Yunnei area on the southern foot of Yinshan Mountain. From Jinhe (Daheihe) to take Baidaoban to attack Killing Hukou, it is only more than 200 miles away. It is the closest attack line, which can catch Datong off guard.

The Killing Hukou defense line consists of four passes. There are Baidao Sakae directly north of it, and Xigou Village and Pohu Fort from west to east. In this defense line about forty miles long, there are mountains and mountains, which are easy to defend but difficult to attack.

On this day, Li Hu arrived at the Khahukou, left the pass, and headed straight to the Motianling Ridge, the westernmost end of Baidaoban.

Two days ago, he received a letter from Yelu Mage and learned that he had crossed the Yellow River to meet with King Cha Ge of the Jin Dynasty in the Great Xia Dynasty. Mage said in the letter that whether he could persuade Cha Ge to form an alliance or not, he would lead his army to Baidaoban on the 10th day of the 10th day and join forces with Li Hu to attack the Jin army again.

Yelu Ma Ge was very haggard and had a tired face, while Li Hu came from Datong and was exhausted.

After the two met, Brother Ma asked the first thing he said: "When will the decisive battle?"

Li Hu looked at him and asked slowly: "Is Brother Cha willing to form an alliance?"

Yelu Ma Ge smiled and nodded, "Li Liangfu and his 30,000 troops have crossed the Yellow River and are coming to the Motianling Mountains."

Li Hu was surprised and happy when he heard this. When he heard Geng Shouzhong's high arguments about the confrontation between the north and the south, his confidence in the three families joining forces to attack the Jurchens was immediately shaken. After all, the national strength of the Daxia Kingdom was limited. Its survival strategy has always been to join forces with Liao to attack the Song Dynasty. From this strategy, it can be seen that Geng Shouzhong's speculation on the situation is very reasonable. Now the Khitans are no longer able, and most of the country has been stolen by the Jurchens. The Jin Kingdom will soon replace the Liao Kingdom and start from the interests of the Daxia. Of course, it is to abandon the Khitans and instead form an alliance with the Jurchens. The Liao and Jin attack the Song Dynasty, and continue to maintain the world pattern of confrontation between the north and the south.

However, Li Hu did not give up completely. He still held a glimmer of hope. Because the Jin Kingdom has not occupied Daibei yet. It has not replaced Liao Kingdom yet. The Daxia people still have the possibility of occupying Daibei. If the Daxia people finally won the Battle of Daibei and replaced the entire territory of the Northern Territory, the territory of the other land can greatly expand and their strength will increase sharply. The strength of the other land will be great. In the three-legged and tripod pattern of the world, they can gain a certain advantage. When implementing the strategy of Liao and Jin attacking Song in the future, they can firmly grasp the initiative and no longer look at the faces of allies and enemies. Therefore, the Daxia people still have the possibility of forming an alliance. Before the situation in Daibei was completely controlled by the Jurchens, there is still a possibility.

Li Hu felt very lucky. In the dark, God always favored and helped him at the most critical moment. This time, the Daxia people and land alliance formed. The three families joined forces to fight back. The hope of defeating the Jurchens increased greatly. As for what new changes will occur in the situation in Daibei after defeating the Jurchens, Li Hu had no time to consider it. There was no need to consider it. He still had to fight when it was time to fight.

However, he did not consider future issues. It did not mean that the Khitans and Dangxiang people did not consider them either.

"You suddenly defected to the Song Dynasty and found a way out for yourself. I can understand this." Yelu Ma Ge asked. "If this battle is won, what will you do next? Will you rely on the assistance of the Song Dynasty to sweep Daibei?"

This question is very sharp. Yelu Mage must ask clearly. Dangxiang people also want to know what the benefits they gained after the war?

After pondering for a moment, Li Hu asked, "How is the matter in the desert?"

"The rebellion of the Bubu people has been put down." Yelu Mage lied, but the rebellion of the Bubu people this time was not large in scale, and the rebels were retreating to the north of the desert. It is estimated that the desert will stabilize soon. "How is Yanjing? Did the Song people launch an attack?"

"Not yet. Both sides are still negotiating." Li Hu also lied. "However, the situation in Yanjing is very bad." Li Hu told the story of Yelu Chun being sick. Empress Xiao and Xiao Gan and Li Chuwen fighting for power. "From the current situation, once there is a problem with Yelu Chun, Yanjing will be divided immediately. Youyan either falls into the hands of the Song people or falls into the Jurchens' bag."

Yelu Chun was seriously ill? Yelu Ma Ge was shocked, "When did this happen?"

"I got the news more than ten days ago." Li Hu said, "I heard that Xiao Gan had close contacts with the Jurchens. He intended to ask the Jurchens for help and asked the Jurchens to go south to Yanjing to help to resist the attack of the Song army."

Brother Yelu Ma thought for a while and asked, "So, are you going to give up Yelu Chun?"

"Did your emperor know that Yelu Chun became emperor in Yanjing?" Li Hu asked irresponsible, "What are the conditions for him to come to Xijing to participate in the decisive battle?"

After hesitating, Yelu Mage said flatly: "Take back Yanjing."

This is indeed the request of the Emperor of the Great Liao. Once this battle is won, the Great Liao will be able to take a breath in Daibei and Dasha, and temporarily save the country's fortune. Of course, the problem of the Great Liao division must be solved. The Emperor of the Great Liao took back Youyan and then could counterattack Zhongjing, but this requires the help of Li Hu, and the reward he gave Li Hu was Daibei.

Originally, Yelu Ma Ge was hesitant, worried that Li Hu would help Yelu Chun rebuild the Great Liao, but Yelu Chun fell ill, Yanjing was in danger, and the situation was completely overturned. Li Hu had to give up Yelu Chun and Yanjing, which just fulfilled the wish of the Emperor of the Great Liao. "What is the reward for the people of Daxia?" Li Hu asked.

"Tiande Army and Heqing Army, Jinsu Army, and Ningbian Prefecture, west of the Yellow River in Dongshengzhou are all from Daxia." Yelu Mage said, "Datong Prefecture and the Jiuzhou in Shanhou are both yours. After winning this battle, we will join forces to retake Youyan and Zhongjing. As long as you can help us regain Yanjing and Zhongjing, the emperor is willing to give Daibei to you."

Li Hu understood. After the Emperor of the Great Liao Dynasty fled to Jiashan, he became much more clear-headed and could listen to Yelu Mage's words. Not only did he let Yelu Mage become the prime minister of the Northern Palace, but he also adopted Yelu Mage's strategy to overcome difficulties with a three-point pattern to ensure the prosperity of the Great Liao Dynasty. However, this strategy was outdated, the strength of the Khitans and the Jurchens was completely subverted, and Yelu Chun fell down again, so it would be good for the Khitans to keep the desert. As for Youyan, he was bound to win. Otherwise, your Khitans would still be herding sheep in the desert, but I would become a ghost in hell.

"Very good." Li Hu said excitedly, repeatedly agreed, and praised Ma Gedi's suggestion, "So, should we sign the alliance immediately?"

Yelu Mage looked at Li Hu with suspicious eyes. After winning the battle, Li Hu gained nothing. The only benefit was that he and the Khitans and Dangxiang people formed an alliance, and the three families divided the north into equal parts. The Khitans and Dangxiang people admitted that Li Hu had Datong Prefecture and the Jiuzhou in the Shanhou, and the three parties shook hands to make peace and no longer fought. When did Li Hu become so easy to talk? He really would abide by the covenant and help us recover Yanjing and Zhongjing? It is impossible. He might have wanted to use this covenant to temporarily make peace with the Khitans and Daxia people, and then take the opportunity to seize Youyan and expand his strength. It is too difficult to get a bargain from Li Hu.

Li Hu agreed and sweared to the point. Even if Yelu Ma Ge didn't believe it, he couldn't do anything. He forced a smile and said, "Li Liangfu will be able to reach Motianling tomorrow, and the three of us will make an alliance together."

Li Liangfu is about forty years old and has a strong figure. He has a rough appearance and a black and oily braid. He looks majestic and has a bit of momentum.

After Li Hu met him, he thought this man was very powerful and a rough man, but he was so wrong. Li Liangfu learned from Han Confucianism since childhood and was very knowledgeable. He was a man of both civil and military affairs.

The negotiations went smoothly under the auspices of Yelu Mage. Both the Khitans and the Dangxiang people in this alliance made profits, but Li Hu had the least profits. However, he was already in danger in the face of the attacks of the Jurchens. He could only use the power of Liaoxia to reverse the situation. If he could turn the danger into a bargain and ensure the safety of Datong and the Jiuzhou area behind Shanhou, his profit would be great.

After the signing of the alliance, Li Hu came up with a strategy of attack.

The main force of the Han army gathered on the front line of Zhenchuan Fort. The Jin army fought against the Jin army from the front. The Jin army could not capture for a long time. They would definitely avoid the enemy's edge and find another breakthrough. At this time, the Jin army would choose to kill Hukou. A part of the Han army was killing Hukou to block the enemy, while the Liaoxia coalition troops secretly lie on Tangzishan and Dabaoshan on both sides of the Kahukou, surrounded the Jin army and encircled them. After the War of Killing Hukou, the Liaoxia coalition troops rushed to the Zhenchuan Fort battlefield, detoured to the southeast of the Daihai Sea, and launched an attack from the flank of the Jin army, giving a fatal blow to the Jurchens.

"What if the Jin army breaks through the Yehu Ridge?" Li Liangfu asked, "Compared with the Yehu Ridge, the Yehu Ridge's position is more important. As long as the Jin army breaks through the Yehu Ridge, it can not only kill Datong directly, but also attack Juyongguan, posing a direct threat to Yanjing."

Li Liangfu did not understand Li Hu, but he knew the people of the Song Dynasty. At this moment, Li Hu joined the Song Dynasty. Of course, the people of the Song Dynasty were happy. They started from the overall situation of Daibei and would definitely support Li Hu at all costs, and they were even likely to send troops to help directly. If the situation was as he guessed, then the Battle of Xijing might be a chain trap. Li Hu first defeated the Jurchens with the Liao and Xia coalition, and then defeated the Liao and Xia coalition with the Song army. In this way, he could not only replace the North, but also successfully obtain Yanjing.

Li Liangfu was very careful, fearing that he would not miss every detail of the attack deployment.

"I have deployed heavy troops in Yehuling, which is enough to resist the fierce attacks of the Jin army." Li Hu smiled, "While signing this covenant with you, Yanjing and I also signed a covenant. When the situation in Yehuling is in crisis, Yanjing will send troops to help."
