On April 1st, Datong.

Late at night, the General Manager's Mansion is fucking brilliant.

Li Hu sat in front of the map, frowned with thick eyebrows and remained silent. Luo Qinghan stood with his hands behind his back, with a cold expression.

Today is the sixth day of the attack by the Jin army. According to the report of the head coaches on each battlefield, the situation of the war is very unfavorable to the rebels.

At the Yinmahe battlefield, the Jin army attacked in full swing, and the soldiers of both sides fought fiercely in Baibao and Jiulong Bay. On the Texas battlefield, the Jin army seized Erlong Mountain twice, cut off the connection between the Liao army and the rebel army. Yelu Mage and Dong Xiaochou attacked together and captured Erlong Mountain twice.

"How is the situation at Sanchakou?" Luo Qinghan asked, "Can Yelu Ma Ge send the latest news?"

"Yesterday Yelu Mage rushed to Shiyaowan and forced Yelu Foding to launch an attack." Chai Yun said, "Yelu Foding is an old slippery man. He will definitely disobey Yelu Mage's orders. If nothing unexpected happens, Yelu Mage just turned his back and returned the same way." Chai Yun looked at the Sanchakou on the map and sighed helplessly, "If Yelu Foding could threaten the flanks of the Jin army from the Sanchakou, it could at least contain tens of thousands of Jin troops, which can greatly alleviate the heavy pressure on our frontal battlefield."

"You are still having fantasies about the Khitans?" Huo Liuge sneered, "In my opinion, if Yelu Foding can always stay in Shiyaowan, God will bless you. I'm afraid that he will secretly understand the Jurchens and turn against him in the face of the battle, then it will be all."

"The book tells Yelu Ma Ge, asking him to pay close attention to Shiyaowan, especially to prevent some of them from surrendering to the Jurchens." Luo Qinghan immediately said to Yuanye, "This battle not only concerns the fate of Datong, but also the future of the Khitans. If their people turn against each other and the flanks of Dezhou are exposed, then Dezhou will not be able to defend. Once Dezhou is lost, the Jin army will open the way to kill the clouds, and the Khitans can escape into the desert with their tails."

Yuanye agreed and drafted the document immediately.

"Ask Brother Ma. What are their emperors doing recently? Also, when will the reinforcements from the desert arrive at the battlefield?" Li Hu suddenly spoke, "Please put the overall situation first and supervise the reinforcements from the desert arrive at the battlefield quickly. As long as the reinforcements from the Khitans arrive in the desert, the Jin army will not dare to attack in full swing like this unscrupulously."

"And..." Li Gang interrupted. "Ask Brother Ma. Can you ask them to come forward and ask the people of Xixia for help."

"Of course that emperor would ask for help from the people of Daxia." Huo Liuge said. "The Emperor of Daxia is his son-in-law. The two countries have lost their lips and cold teeth. The people of Daxia have no reason not to support him. However, the Khitans have reached this point today, just like the dying wolf in the desert. Anyone can bully him. I am afraid that the people of Daxia are willing to come. But the Khitans may not dare to invite him. If the people of Daxia take advantage of the situation and rob Daibei, the Khitans will regret it."

Then he suddenly made a suggestion. "Since the Xixia people have retreated, should we withdraw the DaoShiwu Yongjun to guard Datong?"

"No. You cannot retreat. You cannot retreat no matter what." Li Hu immediately opposed it. "On the contrary, the Supervisor asked Tuo Shuai to give Dao Shuai two more generals. He garrison the Piertoo Village with 20,000 troops."

Luo Qinghan frowned slightly, thinking that Li Hu was too careful. Although the Xixia people might make a comeback, it is enough to maintain the ground-based troops as long as the Bietouzhai is maintained. It seems that there is no need to send reinforcements. The rebel army has limited troops. It is better to transfer to the Datong battlefield as much as possible.

Li Hu didn't think so. He was always very scared in his heart. He was thinking about why he didn't have himself in his father's story. Judging from the current terrain, he was increasingly convinced that he was defeated. So he had to consider a way out. His only way out is to return to the Song Dynasty. The safety of the Bietto Village was directly related to the safety of the retreat. There was no mistake at all.

"How is Yehu Ridge?" Li Hu looked up at Chai Yun.

"Shisan Yun wrote to him that after several days of fierce fighting, the Jin army suffered many casualties, and the attacks in the past two days have weakened, but the possibility of waiting for reinforcements is not ruled out." Chai Yun said, "The eight generals of the Feiyun Army, plus the two generals of the Black Mountain Army, are now in Yehuling and Taoshan. If the Jin army does not increase their troops, they will not be able to break through at all."

"This has just begun. There is still a battle to fight later." Li Hu smiled, "Tell Yun Shuai. Please pay close attention to the movements of the Jin army. Perhaps the Jin army is attacking the east and the west, pretending to use the main force to attack Datong, but secretly split troops to attack Yehuling. If the Jin army breaks through Yehuling and we are attacking both sides, Datong will be in danger. By the way, how about Yun Shuai's land, food, grass and supplies? Has Yelu Chun fulfilled his promise and allocated money, grain and weapons to us?"

"The day before yesterday, Lin Ya gave Yun Shuai a batch of food weapons." Chai Yun said, "Lin Ya also rushed to Yehu Ridge and gave Yun Shuai a lot of defense suggestions. Yun Shuai is very grateful for this." Speaking of this, he suddenly remembered something, "Shishuai Yun asked me to ask you if you can transfer a batch of stone throwing machines for him."

"No." Li Hu shook his hand decisively, "The stone throwing machine should be used to defend Datong, and no one can be allocated. Tell him that the terrain of Yehuling and Taoshan is very dangerous, and there is no need to use a stone throwing machine to fight there. The key is to use your brain and use materials locally. Gao Hao once blocked the Jin army during the Battle of Targas Mountain. He has rich experience in defense. Please discuss with him more." Then he turned to look at the old camp coach Hong Yun, "How about the siege equipment being made? We don't have much time left. The front-line army may withdraw back to the city at any time. Datong's defense must be completed immediately."

"It will be done soon." Hong Yun's tone was very confident, "What we lacked the most was people. This time, hundreds of thousands of Han people who came with him from western Liaoning happened to be useful, and men, women, young and old all went into battle. In order to protect the Tiger King, to defend Datong, and behind the mountain, they were willing to smash them to pieces."

When Li Hu thought of the people who followed him without regrets, a trace of guilt came to his heart. When he heard that Luo Qinghan was going to take them to evacuate western Liaoning with him, he was still very angry and thought that he would bring a huge burden. But in the blink of an eye, he would rely on their help again. If this battle was won, I swear that I would never abandon them, and I would never.

Hong Yun introduced the defense preparations in detail, from the hoarding of food and grass weapons to the evacuation and resettlement of the people, everything was proceeding in an orderly manner.

"There is a question I want to ask the general commander." Hong Yun hesitated for a long time and said carefully, "Will the people behind the mountain evacuate? If they evacuate, where will they retreat? Should they go up the mountain to hide or go south to the Song Dynasty?"

It is temporary to go up the mountain to hide, but to defect to the Song Dynasty can solve the problem once and for all, but will the Song Dynasty accept it?

Li Hu's eyes turned to Li Gang.

After thinking for a while, Li Gang nodded, "There should be no problem. The government will take them in, but the people behind the mountain stick to their hometown, and they may not be willing to go south. In addition, we may not lose Datong and fall into a desperate situation." Then Li Gang made an analysis. In his opinion, the key factor affecting the situation in the Daibei battlefield was when the Song army occupied Yanjing.

"We must stick to two months, which is the minimum limit, because the Northern Expedition Army of the Song Dynasty took at least two months to capture Yanjing, and the reinforcements of the Song Dynasty also took at least two months to enter Yunshuo. When the Song Dynasty occupied Yanjing, they could immediately divide their troops to support the mountain. In addition, the Jin army from Hedong came north, our troops could exceed the Jin army. The Jin army had no other way except retreating."

Li Hu thought of the future and shook his head with a bitter smile.

Li Hu had already given up on Yelu Chun. A month ago, Li Hu was urging Yelu Chun to be emperor, but a month later, he had discussed with the people of the Song Dynasty how to attack Yanjing. Although he was still ambitious and wanted to establish a country in the North and become king, reality is reality. In the face of cruel reality, he had to bow his head and had to submit to the Song Dynasty.

However, he had not yet reached a desperate situation. He had one expectation, that is, the Song army might fail in the Northern Expedition. If the father's story was true, the Northern Expedition of the Song Dynasty failed and he repelled the Jin army, then the situation was under his control whether it was Daibei or Yanyun. Of course, the failure of the Northern Expedition of the Song Dynasty was indeed incredible, but who could be sure that the Song Dynasty would not fail? The Northern Expedition of the Song Dynasty failed, Yelu Chun defended Youyan, and he defended Yunshuo. Liaodong still had three points, and everything was still in the planned plan. This was the most ideal situation.

Will this situation really happen? Li Hu dare not think about it, so from reality, let’s give up Yelu Chun first and talk about the future.

"If Master Tong immediately orders an attack, it will be the greatest assistance to us." Luo Qinghan said, "We have already reported the situation in Daibei urgently. After receiving our letter, he should launch an attack, right?"

This time, Li Gang thought about it for a long time but didn't speak.

With Tong Guan's style, he must fight, and the officials were even more impatient. However, the matters of the Song Dynasty, especially those that affect the whole body, such as the Northern Expedition, cannot be done by the officials and Tong Guan just say that they can do it. They involve all aspects. If the upper and lower levels cannot coordinate and cannot work together, the result will inevitably go against the original intention. There are too many such examples in the Song Dynasty, and the Northern Expedition may also encounter the same fate, and the people in the Song Dynasty are in the end.

Han, the envoy of Yanjing, came in a hurry, and he brought bad news, and the emperor fell ill.

"I'm very sick?" Li Hu didn't care at first. As for the elderly, it's normal for them to get sick, especially in the current situation, Yelu Chunchengde's pressure was too great, and it was reasonable to fall ill.

"Very heavy." Han looked heavy, his eyes were desperate and confused.

Li Hu was a little surprised, "It's very heavy? What's going on? Can't you handle state affairs?"

Han hesitated for a long time and sighed sadly, which was considered a default.
