Chapter 768 Yanyun decisive battle ([-]) (please subscribe!)

...

Time back to a month and a half ago.

After Liu Kai received Li Yan's order that "it is best to win a big victory in the near future to cooperate with the court and Dajin's peace talks", he came to Yingzhou from Shuozhou overnight to meet Han Shizhong.

After discussing with each other, the two always thought that the war on the northern front was almost over, and it was time to fight a good battle to draw a successful conclusion for their recovery of Hedong and Yundi.

In addition, the troops of the two had just been replenished, and Li Yan sent another [-] reinforcements to the two.

Of course, the most important thing is that Li Yan ordered them to win a big victory recently so that the imperial court can negotiate peace with Da Jin.

Therefore, Liu Qi and Han Shizhong finally decided to dispatch [-] to [-] troops each to kill Yunzhou and fight for power to take down Yunzhong Mansion, the most important city in Yundi.

For more than two months, the reason why Liu Qi and Han Shizhong have not moved forward in Yundi is mainly because whenever they send troops, Wanyan Loushi will lead Jin to harass them, fight if they can beat them, and run away if they can't beat them. The cities in Yundi are all strong, easy to defend and difficult to attack. In addition, after fighting all the way, they were damaged and garrisoned separately.

Now, with the supplement of reserve troops sent by Li Yan and the [-] troops that Li Yan gave them reinforcements from the West Route Army, Liu Qi and Han Shizhong could finally use the large army to crush Yan Loushi's harassment tactics.

Soon, Liu Kai and Han Shizhong sent troops from Shuozhou and Yingzhou at the same time.

Not long after, the former army led by Liu Kai arrived in Huanzhou, and captured Huanzhou with a destructive force. Then Liu Kai's former army and Han Shizhong's left army were like two giant dragons trying to capture the territory of Yunzhou. Pearl.

Wanyan Yinshu, who was staying in Yunzhou, found out about this, and did not dare to take it too seriously. While fortifying the walls and clearing the field, he transferred all the troops into Yunzhou City to prepare to defend, and at the same time sent people to ask for help from Wanyan Xie, who was guarding Yanjing.

At this stage, not only Dazhong needs to use victories to increase their bargaining chips, but Dajin also has similar ideas—Wan Yanchang has already told Wanyan Xie about his process of negotiating peace in Dazhong, and made it clear Tell Wanyan Xieye that if Dajin wants to negotiate a peace decently, he can no longer lose on the battlefield, and it is best to win a big battle, so as to force Dazhong to make concessions in the process of peace negotiation.

Based on this, Wan Yanxie also decided after comprehensive consideration to take the risk of surprise attacking Liu Kai and Han Shizhong's troops who invaded Yunzhou.

The reason why Wanyan Xie also made this decision was mainly because after fighting with Yue Fei for several months, Wanyan Xie also fully saw Yue Fei's difficulty, and decided that it would be impossible for him to win big if no accident happened to Yue Fei. If they win, they will not be able to deal with Yan Chang's peace talks, and Liu Kai and Han Shizhong almost came out this time. Shuozhou and Yingzhou must be empty. States, in short, have a chance to win.

Of course, Wanyan Xie also considered Yanjing's safety.

but--

Yanjing is the capital of many dynasties, and even Li Yan lived here for a while.

Especially during the period when Yanjing was acquired in the Northern Song Dynasty and after Wanyan Zongwang took over Yanjing, various reconstructions and enhancements were made to Yanjing to make it a first-class strong city.

This is also one of the main reasons why Yue Fei failed to attack Yanjing for more than four months.

As a commander who has fought for more than 20 years without a single defeat, Wan Yanxie also knows very well that no matter how strong a city is, it is impossible to be completely unbreakable. Only a first-class commander and all the soldiers who are united in one mind work together to defend the city will be unbreakable.

Now, Dazhong has forced Dajin to have no way out - if they retreat, they will not be able to protect their wives and children.

Therefore, regardless of the residents in Yanjing City, at least in the Jin Army, especially in the Jurchens, they can be united.

As a result, only a first-class commander is missing, leading the soldiers to lead the soldiers to guard Yanjing.

Wanyan Xie also chose among the generals under his command, and finally chose one——Wanyan Wulugu.

This Wanyan Wulugu is not a member of the royal family, he is just a descendant of the Wanyan clan, and he and Wanyan Aguda can't even trace their common ancestors, which shows how many rooms they are separated from.

The order of Jurchen's anti-Liao is: first unify the raw Jurchen, then annex the mature Jurchen, and finally launch a general attack on the Liao.

When Wanyan Agu fought against the Liao Dynasty, the birth of Nuzhen was basically unified.

Wanyan Wulugu has always been known for his bravery, so Wanyan Agu beat him to liberate the mature Jurchen.

After Wanyan Wulugu took command, he first fought against Liao Jiedu Envoy Yelutabuya, then defeated Liaodu Commander Yelushilou, and finally conquered Liao Xianzhou together with Jurchen God of War Wanyan Loushi.

The Liao army then counterattacked and was defeated by Wanyan Loushi and Wanyan Wulugu.

Subsequently, Wanyan Wulugu was appointed as the commander of the Xianzhou army by Wanyan Aguda.

Next, Gao Yongchang, a former Bohai native, took advantage of the chaos to establish the Great Bohai State on the Liaodong Peninsula in an attempt to become self-reliant.

The Liao Kingdom sent a large army to attack, but Gao Yongchang was defeated and asked Jurchen for help.

Wanyan Aguda persuaded Gao Yongchang to get rid of the title of emperor and return to Jurchen.

Gao Yongchang didn't listen.

In the name of rescue, Wanyan Aguda sent Wanyan Wulu's ancient commanders to the Liaodong Peninsula, defeating the Liao army first, and then destroying Gao Yongchang.

Wanyan Wulugu led the army from Xianzhou at that time, cooperated in the battle, made many military achievements, and finally captured Liaodong.

Since then, the mature women have basically all belonged to the Kingdom of Jin.

When Wanyan Aguda attacked Nanjing (i.e. Yanjing) in Liao Dynasty, Yeluchun, Emperor of Northern Liao Dynasty, led Yanjing Forbidden Army, Yanyun Militia and Resentment Army and Jin Army to fight in Tribulus Mountain (later Fuxinbei, Liaoning).

Wanyan Wulugu, Wanyan Loushi, and Digunai (Wanyan Zhong) led their troops to defeat the Northern Liao Army.

Wanyan Wulugu made a great contribution to Jurchen's anti-Liao cause, and he was also the leading warrior in the Kingdom of Jin. At the beginning, some people even called him together with Wanyan Loushi.

However, Wanyan Wulugu later became a little proud and self-confident because of his outstanding achievements—he lived in Xianzhou for a long time, covering the sky with one hand, being arrogant and lawless, especially fond of wine and women, and allowing his subordinates to rob public property, and he was also greedy. Many trophies were concealed by him and kept as his own. This gradually aroused the dissatisfaction of other generals, who were reported one after another.

Wanyan Aguda was furious, demoted Wanyan Wolugu, and replaced him with another clan son, Wanyan Jiege—this also saved Wanyan Wulugu's life, otherwise, the Chinese army would have When attacking the Liaodong Peninsula, it was not Wanyan Jiege who died but Wanyan Wulugu.

After that, Wanyan Wolugu was no longer reused, and only participated in some small counter-insurgency work.

However, the powerful generals of the Kingdom of Jin, such as Wanyan Zongwang, Wanyan Zonghan, Wanyan Xiyin, Wanyan's mother, Wanyanzhong, Wanyan Pujianu, Wanyan Wulu, during the process of going south, the soldiers who died in battle Dead, caught by Dazhong.

In addition, the golden generals of the older generation, like Wanyan Sagai, Wanyan Xiong, Wanyan Xibushi, Ah Lihesui, have long since died.

As a result, there is a serious shortage of Jin Guomeng generals at present.

Moreover, Wanyan Aguda passed away a few years ago.

Therefore, on the occasion of employing people, Wanyan Xie also employed Wanyan Wulu Gufu again.

Compared with the other generals under Wanyan Xieye, Wanyan Wulugu's qualifications are much higher.

The point is, after coming out of the mountain again this time, Wanyan Wulugu put away his previous arrogance, and Wanyan Xie also pointed out that he was going to fight, and made a lot of military exploits.

Ever since, Wanyan Xie handed over the task of guarding Yanjing to Wanyan Wulugu, and led fifty thousand cavalry out of Juyongguan to fight Liu Qi and Han Shizhong...
