The seventh day of the 10th month, midnight.
On the road, there were torches like clouds, and the soldiers of the rebel army stride forward regardless of their fatigue. In front of them was Yanjing, and the treasures in Yanjing were piled up like mountains. When Yanjing was captured, everyone could return with a full load. This temptation was too fatal, so fatal that it was enough for people to be willing to sacrifice their lives for it.
Li Hu stopped by the roadside and waved his whip at the guards. The guards understood it and immediately went to the woods on the roadside to cut down some trees. Soon, three bonfires were lit and the flames soared into the sky.
A moment later, Tieying, Huang She and Liu arrived first, followed by the commander of the Tiger Lie Army Gao Yuan, Wu Xiong, the commander of the Black Mountain Army Dong Zhongsun, the commander of the Feiyun Army Hou Guai, the commander of the King of Hell, the commander of the King of Hell, Dugu Feng, the commander of the Shenlong Army Li Jin and other commanders of the various army rushed out of the dark night. The last one to arrive was the commander of the Food Shooting Army Hong Yun.
Huang She was very excited and stood in front of the map and talked endlessly, introducing the defenses of the inner and outer cities of Yanjing to the military commanders in detail. Thinking that he could enter Yanjing immediately, and thinking that his dream was about to come true, he was intoxicated by the joy of success, his eyes were extremely fierce, and he was emitting all over.
Yanjing is 36 miles in a radius, with a city of three feet high and five feet wide, divided into outer city, inner city and imperial city.
There are a large number of buildings such as markets, temples and temples in the outer city, with eight gates, called Andong in the east, Yingchun in the south, Kaiyang in the south, Xianxi in the west, Qingjin in the Qing Dynasty, Tongtian in the north, Gongchen in the north.
The inner city is in the southwest of the city, with two palaces in the imperial palaces, called Xuanhe in the east and Danei in the south. Empress Xiao is in Danei.
"According to the news we have received, Xiao Gan and Yelu Dashi's army are currently confronting the Song army in Liangxiang." Huang She said with a finger at the map, "Liangxiang is about 60 miles away from Yanjing. If the horse army quickly rushes to rescue, it will be more than an hour. Therefore, the cavalry generals of the Tiger Lie First Army and Heishan, Feiyun, Yanwang, Shenlong, and the Five Thunder Army are all commanded by the Iron Supervisor to block the Liao army at the Lugou line."
"General General, our cavalry general has just been formed and has no combat power. Just pull it out to face the Khitans head-on, and there will be no victory." Zhang Gao'er immediately interrupted Huang She and said loudly to Li Hu, "At this time, the Song army should be asked to launch an attack and drag the Liao army to death."
Li Hu nodded with a smile, signaling him to know, and asked Zhang Gaoer to continue listening to Huang She.
"The General Commander has sent someone to Liangxiang to report the news." Huang She was in a good mood and was too lazy to argue with Zhang Gao'er. He continued to say. "After we arrived in Yanjing, we concentrated our main force to attack Xicheng Xianximen, and attracted all the defenders in the city to this area. Then Gao Shuai led the fourth and sixth army to raid the Qing Jinmen."
"There are two generals, six generals. Is the troops too little?" Gao Yuan hesitated for a moment and asked.
"Enough." Huang She smiled. "There are our local people in the city. Zhu Xia brought people into Yanjing more than a month ago. He was preparing to cooperate with us inside and outside. In addition, there are at least tens of thousands of believers of the Heavenly Masters and Taoism in the city. They will all help us conquer Yanjing. So..." Huang She looked at Gao Yuan and smiled proudly. "As long as you arrive at the Qing Jin Gate, the gate will be open for you. Then you lead your army into the city. The primary goal is the Nanjing Left-behind Office, the Nanjing Marshal's Mansion and the Xijin Mansion. Then surround the inner city. Attack the southern end, Wanchun and Qianqiu Gate. All the officials in the north and south prefectures of the Daliao Palace tent were arrested."
"Remember. Don't fight against the imperial city." Huang She stretched out a finger and pointed at Gao Yuan a few times. "The general general wants to enter the imperial city in person to visit Empress Xiao."
When Gao Yuan and everyone heard this, it turned out that fighting Yanjing was so simple. They immediately smiled happily. They discussed how to plunder after entering Yanjing. This time they made a fortune.
Li Hu stood up and walked slowly to everyone. He clapped his hands and signaled everyone to calm down.
"This time, who dares to plunder Youyan, I will kill him." Li Hu suddenly turned cold and said sternly.
Everyone's faces froze, and their passionate hearts suddenly became cold. If you don't plunder, how can you drink the wind?
"I have told you before that with our strength and our current situation, we cannot occupy Yanyun at the same time. In the future, our main goal is to manage Daibei, so..." Li Hu's eyes swept across everyone's faces one by one, and then said word by word, "We want to move Yanjing to Daibei, and we want to make all the valuable things in Yanjing city, except for the population, cities and land."
The military commanders looked at Li Hu in amazement. After a long time, they did not let us plunder, just to empty Yanjing. Isn’t this fifty steps and laugh a hundred steps? OK, you are still cruel and powerful.
"Haha..." Dugu Feng couldn't help but laughed, "Master General, I'm convinced you. We're just grabbing, but you want to empty Yanjing. Do you still let people live?"
"Yanjing is the Yanjing of the Song Dynasty. The Song Dynasty will support the Yanjing people, so we don't have to worry about this." Li Hu said lightly.
"Haha..." The military commanders were happy, and they all laughed so hard that they were all over. This time they were not making money, but they were full of money. I guess they would not have to worry about food and drink in their lives. As for the financial crisis of Hu Lie Mansion, it will be solved because of this. In the future, Hu Lie Mansion will not be at a loss because of financial constraints.
However, the Song Dynasty had a heavy burden for this (the book was reproduced. Although the Song Dynasty recovered Youyan and took back the seven states in front of the mountain, in order to stabilize Youyan and feed the people in front of the mountain, the Song Dynasty had to provide full assistance to Youyan in the next few years. The Song Dynasty's finances had long been insufficient, and if it were added to increase expenditures to stabilize Yanyun, the financial difficulties would be even greater.
"I will never be able to use the prime minister." Liu was anxious and rushed to Li Hu in three or two steps and tried his best to persuade him, "I will regain Yan Yun, and the great achievements will be great. The Song Dynasty will never treat the prime minister unfairly, and will not put Youyan as the top priority and the Song Dynasty as the top priority. This disaster must not be done."
"Hmph..." Li Hu sneered, with murderous intent on his eyes, "Staff Officer Liu, to be honest, I have recaptured Yan Yun for the Song Dynasty. How can the Song Dynasty reward me? Should I continue to be a vassal king or a dog cook, and find an opportunity to kill me?"
"How could I, the Song Dynasty, do such a treacherous thing?"
"So, please tell me how the northwest was split? Why did the Dangxiang people betray the Song Dynasty?" Li Hu asked coldly, "When the Dangxiang people defected to the Song Dynasty in the northwest, they had great achievements in the Song Dynasty, but why could not the Song Dynasty accommodate a vassal king?"
Liu was speechless. Reducing the vassal state was the national policy of establishing a country in the Song Dynasty. As long as the Song Dynasty existed in the world, the existence of the vassal states would never be allowed, and the source of disaster would be eradicated at any cost. Li Hu recovered Yan Yun, which was a great achievement for the Song Dynasty, but it was also the source of disaster for the Song Dynasty. The Song Dynasty would definitely destroy him.
Liu shook his head, his eyes showing annoyance. The French captives are the French captives, greedy and barbaric, unable to be domesticated, and will not be used by China. This person must be killed. Otherwise, there will be endless troubles. He did not hide his anger at all, and swung his sleeves at Li Hu, turned around and left. Do you think you could empty Yanjing? The 200,000 Northern Expedition Army of the Song Dynasty is in Liangxiang, just a few feet away from Yanjing. I see how you empty Yanjing... It is probably difficult."
"Xiao Gan could not defeat us, and Yanjing was lost again. At the end of his life, he had no choice but to surrender to the Jurchens." Hou Guai also said worriedly, "Xiao Gan's main force is in Gubeikou and Songting Pass. If he leads the Jin army to attack the pass, there will be a fight in Yanjing."
"It is precisely because Xiao Gan wanted to surrender to the Jurchens and to lead the Jin army south. The Song Dynasty had something to ask me that I had the opportunity to empty Yanjing." Li Hu immediately changed into a smile after Liu left and said happily. "The Song people still wanted Pingzhou Road, and the Jin army would soon come from western Liaoning. At this moment, the Song people had only two choices. They either rely on me to defend Yanjing, and they went to conquer Pingzhou Road. Or gave up Pingzhou Road and compete with me for the wealth of Yanjing." Li Hu looked at everyone and asked with a smile, "If you are the Song people, which one do you choose between regaining lost land and looting wealth?"
"The people of the Song Dynasty have money. Of course they want to steal Youyan." Wu Xiong said immediately, "But our troops are limited, and are you a little stretched to deal with the three armies of Song, Liao and Jin at the same time?"
"I think so too." Li Hu smiled, "I have urgently reported to Hu Lie Mansion and immediately recruited the Bohai Army. Hu Lie Second Army rushed to Youyan to help us empty Yanjing."
When everyone heard this, they became brave and brave. The horse army, the landlord of Hulie Mansion, arrived, were still afraid that they would not be able to move away from Yanjing?
"Master Hong..." Li Hu pointed to Hong Yun and said, "Thank you for your hard work this time. You have to carry it day and night until you emptied Yanjing."
"Don't worry, the general manager, let's leave the moving matter to the Food Shooting Army." Hong Yun was so excited that he agreed repeatedly.
Li Hu picked up the pony and waved at everyone, "Everyone rushed back as soon as possible and urged the soldiers to speed up. Be sure to rush to Yanjing City in the early morning and take down Yanjing City." News. Yelu Aguzhe urgently reported that starting early this morning, Li Hu commanded a large army to attack fiercely. The defenders of Juyongguan were seriously injured and the pass was in danger, so it was probably difficult to defend. Yelu Aguzhe asked Yanjing to send reinforcements, even if there were only one thousand people, otherwise Juyongguan would definitely be lost.
Xiao Gan was anxious. If Juyongguan was lost and Li Hu was allowed to fight in, the brilliant results of today's battle were immediately lost. Li Hu was too powerful, and the battle of Targlutinous Mountain completely destroyed his confidence. Although the two had several confrontations since then, Xiao Gan would never dare to fight again, and he would keep his feet moving forward to avoid losing again.
If...if Yelu Aguzhe lost Juyong Pass and Li Hu rushed in, and a large army that was several times higher than him roared, could he stop it?
"I shouldn't let Dashi continue to pursue." Xiao Gan regretted it, but then he thought of Empress Dowager Xiao and Dashi's relationship with Li Hu, and he thought that his arrangement was reasonable. Empress Dowager Xiao and Dashi advocated withdrawing to a promise to give them a passage. If Li Hu broke into Youyan and completely controlled Youyan's war residence, the Song army would definitely make a comeback. The Liao army could not resist it. In the end, Empress Dowager Xiao and Dashi had to listen to Li Hu and still led their troops to retreat into the desert. What will happen to him and Xi army? From then on, will they give up their homes and survive in the distant desert?
"King, let's go directly to Juyongguan, which can save dozens of miles and support Aguzhe as soon as possible." Xiao Yiba suggested.
Xiao Gan thought for a moment, "I must go back to Yanjing first to ensure the safety of Yanjing. You bring five thousand elite cavalry and go directly to Juyong Pass to help Aguzhe block Li Hu."
