Chapter 7 Dong Shuai's decision

An error occurred while processing s private files

August.,, Yunnei.

Gao Baolong and Abaddon led the Bohai Army and the Tiger Lie Second Army, with the support of the Jin army, quickly crossed the Jin River and rushed into Yunnei Prefecture. Abaddon immediately led his army to advance towards the Tiande Army northwest of Yunnei. Gao Baolong advanced towards Yinshan and cooperated with the Jin army's Wanyan Loushi unit to attack the remnants of the Liao army in the Jiashan area.

In mid-August, Dong Xiaochou led the resentful army, the Yisheng army and the Jinglei army rushed to Yunneizhou. He stationed troops on the north bank of the Jin River. He was about 100 miles away from Yulin City on the west bank of the Yellow River. At the same time, Zong Han and Wanyan Yu led their troops to meet in Loushi and launched a fierce attack on the Jin army.

The Khitan Emperor led his army to fight against the Jin army on the southern foot of Yinshan Mountain. He lost consecutive battles and had to retreat to the northwest of Yinshan Mountain. However, they were blocked by Gao Baolong's Bohai army and were surrounded.

On that day, Yelu Mage, accompanied by Monk Xiao, rushed to Gao Baolong's Bohai Army. Gao Baolong immediately sent someone to Dong Xiaochou's coaching camp.

After seeing Dong Xiaochou, Yelu Ma Ge was angry and scolded Li Hu for violating the covenant and being despicable.

"If we continue to attack the Jurchens, if we don't shake hands with the Jurchens, the Liaoxia coalition should attack Datong now, right?" Dong Xiaochou said slowly. "If you want to be despicable and shameless, you and Brother Richard are the most shameless people. If you and Li Liangfu continued to join forces with us to attack Yuanyanglu, the Jin army would have evacuated Daibei long ago. Today's situation is all about you and Richard."

Of course, Brother Ma would not admit it. He pointed at Dong Xiaochou's nose and cursed.

"The most urgent task is not to blame each other, nor to argue about who is right or who is wrong. Instead, to solve the problem and discuss how to deal with the Jin army." The monk slave hurriedly mediated. "The general commander has already come up with a strategy. His Majesty also agreed. Let's sit down and have a good talk."

Yelu Mage suppressed his anger and sat down. "Give me a way first. Let me go to the Tiande Army." (The Tiande Army is in the Wuliangsuhai area of ​​Inner Mongolia today.)

Go to Tiande Army? Dong Xiaochou stroked his long beard with his hands. He thought for a moment and asked, "Are you going to Xia Country?"

"I have been surrounded. The only way to retreat is to go to the Tiande Army and go to the desert through Xia Kingdom." Yelu Ma Ge said angrily. "Do you want me to cross Yinshan and let the Jurchens follow me and chase me relentlessly?"

Dong Xiaochou looked down at the map and looked at the monk slave again. He was puzzled. The Khitans wanted to retreat into the desert. Of course, they were going to Yinshan nearest. Why should they go to Xia Kingdom by far? Could it be... Dong Xiaochou was secretly surprised and asked hurriedly: "The rebellion in the desert has not been quelled yet?"

This sentence hits the point of Ma Ge's vitality. Ma Ge's face looks grim and grits his teeth. He completely loses his calmness. "Do you give way?"

"The desert has been out of control." The monk Nu sighed. "The rebellion that blocked the Bu people has not been quenched yet. The Wugu people started again. Then the enemy steed rebelled. Even the Shiwei people betrayed. Yelu Yaris's northwestern army could not defeat them. They had to retreat to the northwest of the desert."

Dong Xiaochou felt a little suffocated. The situation and development far exceeded expectations. Li Hu's northern strategy was severely defeated before it even began. The Khitans were defeated like mountains and despised. Now they could not even save their last place. How can the Liao Dynasty be saved? The Liao Dynasty was completely defeated. Who can stop the Jurchens from conquering the desert?

"How is the collapsed ridge?" Dong Xiaohou asked.

"Although the French tribes at the collapsed ridge did not rebel, they were no longer willing to obey the orders of the Khitans." The monknu looked sad and said in a sad tone. "Baidadan tribe, the mother tribe of Si, the bottom of Dali, and the Mogeshi tribe rejected the emperor's request. They no longer sent troops to support the country. It is said that they were forming an alliance with the Shiwei people. They were preparing to go north to the desert and the Shubu people, the Wugu people, and the enemy harsh people competed with the desert."

Dong Xiaochou looked at Brother Ma and asked solemnly: "What should you do after you retreat to the Tiande Army? How many troops do you have? How long can you last?"

"I have sent people north to the desert to find Yelu Yaris. As long as I find the northwest army in his land, I can gather at least 50,000 troops." Ma Ge sneered. "Li Hu said, I want to help us rebuild the Great Liao. Then I ask you. Can he lend me the army? Can he give up attacking Xixia and help me quell the rebellion in the desert first?"

"Then can you convince the Xixia people to give up attacking Daibei?" Dong Xiaochou asked back and considered the situation. Then he wanted to survive."

"How can I calm down? The Great Liao Kingdom has been defeated. How can you calm me down?" Ma Ge shouted loudly. "Li Hu has transferred all the main forces to the front line of the Yellow River. He wants to fight Xixia. He has given up Youyan. The last glimmer of hope in the Great Liao Kingdom is gone. Do you think I don't know?"

"We are working hard." Dong Xiaochou said. "The 200,000 troops of the Song Dynasty are in the northern expedition. The Jin lord Wanyan Aguda is leading his army to attack Liaoxi and is preparing to seize Yanjing with the Song Dynasty. In this case, the only place we can do is to help Empress Dowager Xiao and the Liao army evacuate as soon as possible. The general has personally rushed to Juyongguan. So please stick to it. And tell your emperor. Send the King of Qin here immediately, just in case of thousands of things?" Ma asked coldly. "Does he want to use us to hold the Jurchens in the desert to give him time to capture the northwest?"

"You must know that you have no room to bargain with us now." Dong Xiaochou said in a calm tone, but his tone was very harsh. "In this world, the winners are kings, the losers are enemies. If the Khitans are defeated, they must admit their failure. If you want to rise again, you must rely on your own strength and the help of others to rebuild the Liao Dynasty."

Brother Ma was silent for a long time and finally nodded. "Okay. I'll send the King of Qin. You move the road away. Let me retreat to a safe place first."

"Who will protect the King of Qin?" Dong Xiaohou asked. He hit the table. "You might as well tell me directly and ask me to kill the king."

"The Great Liao was defeated by the hands of that foolish monarch. Why are you protecting him?" Dong Xiaohou slapped the table on the desk. "Take the army here. Otherwise, I will destroy you with the Jurchens and kill all the Khitans."

Brother Ma couldn't help it anymore. He jumped up and pulled out the sword suddenly. The monk slave was shocked. He rushed up and hugged Brother Ma and shouted loudly: "Now, you are the Khitan soldiers who can save the land of Daliao, not the emperor. Do you still want the Daliao?"

Brother Ma raised his head and whistled sadly. The sword in his hand fell to the ground. Tears rolled out. He staggered out of the military tent. The monk slave picked up the sword on the ground. His eyes turned red and tears fell. "I'll go back with you."

"Don't go." Dong Xiaohou stood up and stopped him.

"Dong Shuai..." The monk slave knelt down. "Please leave some vitality to Daliao."

"The only troops left in the Great Liao Dynasty. If Brother Ma didn't bring them here, the Jurchens would never let them go." Dong Xiaochou felt as hard as iron. "Whether he could save the Great Liao Dynasty depends on Brother Ma's decision."

"What about the emperor? Are you going to kill him?"

"I do want to kill him." Dong Xiaohou remembered the dead Li Hong, and the rebel brothers who died bravely. He wished he could eat Yelu Yanxi raw. "But I will give him a way out and let him escape to Xia Kingdom for refuge." If? If Brother Ma doesn't agree..."

"I will kill them." Dong Xiaochou said coldly. "You go back to Datong immediately and report the latest situation in the desert to the general commander. Given the current severe situation in Daibei, we must first defeat Richard Brother and replace the general commander. Please consider it. Suppose the general commander will temporarily withdraw the tiger lieutenant army and drive the Western Xia army back to Helan Mountain first."

The monk slave dared not say anything. His mission has been completed. He should go back to Datong. He is no longer able to help Brother Ma.

Dong Xiaohou urgently wrote a copy and asked someone to send it to the Huli Army Commander Camp two hundred miles away.

The Huli Army stationed troops on the east bank of the Yellow River. It is located in the Hebin City of Dongshengzhou. It is between Dong Xiaochou's army and Zhang Guanyu's army in Yunnei.

After receiving this letter, Mao's army was also shocked. The Khitans were defeated too quickly. The desert was in chaos. The Jurchens had this opportunity to conquer the desert in the shortest time. If the Hulie Mansion wanted to implement the northern strategy, it must quickly replace the north. Then, after the Youyan War, the attack on Xixia immediately started.

Mao Jun urgently summoned Deputy General Gao Yuan and Wu Xiong and Liangshan Army General Song Jiang to discuss matters.

"Ship Dong wants to concentrate his troops to defeat Brother Richard?" Gao Yuan shook his head. "Will the general manager agree? Are we confident of defeating Brother Richard?"

"I don't know if the general general will agree. But Dong Shuai does have more than 60% chance of defeating Brother Richard." Mao Jun said. "There are resentful troops in Yunnei, and Yi defeats the second army. About 60,000 infantry and cavalry. Dong Shuai can leave 20,000 infantry and cavalry to ensure the safety of Yunnei. Lead 40,000 troops across Henan and go south. We have six armies of Hu Lie along the way. Plus Liangshan Army, a total of 50,000 infantry and cavalry. The Bietto Village has the Martial Army of Dao Shuai and the Yunshuo Army of Tuo Shuai. The 20,000 infantry and cavalry. The prefectures have the Zhe Family Army and the Hedong Army of Zhe, and the troops are about 50,000. In this way, Dong Shuai can gather 160,000 troops to fight Richard."

"Will Brother Richard fight to the decisive battle?" Wu Xiong scoffed. "What if the bird man escapes back to Helan Mountain? We keep chasing him?"

"The Khitans have been defeated. If we join forces with the Jurchens to enter the northwest, how can the Dangxiang people support it?" Mao Jun said. "If nothing unexpected happens, the Xixia people will secretly form an alliance with the Jin Kingdom. The Jin Kingdom wants to go north to conquer the desert. Wanyan Gao urgently needs the Xixia people to hold us back. So the Jin and Xia countries should form an alliance. In this way, Xixia only needs one of us. Brother Richard will of course have a decisive battle. He won. Daibei is his."

Song Jiang didn't know anything about the northwest. He just listened and didn't say anything. However, he could hear from the tone of the horse army that the commander of the Tiger Lie Army planned to cross the river to attack.

"But if the general manager does not agree..." Gao Yuan hesitated.

"Cross the river first." Mao Jun said. "If the general general does not agree, we will withdraw."
