Whether the Jin army took the opportunity to attack Datong, Yelu Mage was the same as Fan Zhi|. He believed that Li Hu's judgment was wrong.
How many years has the Jurchens risen? The northeast road is unstable. Do you dare to take the initiative to attack Datong? Although Bianjing secretly formed an alliance with the Jin people to kill Li Hu, it was purely a knife to kill people. The Jurchens could not know. It was even more impossible to fight against Li Hu to the death. The Jurchens and Li Hu both suffered defeats. Who was the last one? One was the Song Dynasty and the other was the Desert Fan. So after thinking about it, from the actual situation of the Jurchens, the wisest strategy of Huanglong Mansion was to form an alliance with the Song Dynasty and the Northern Expedition of the Desert. As for Li Hu, because of his limited strength, he was surrounded by the three kingdoms of Song Dynasty, Jin and Xia. He did not dare to take the initiative to attack the Jin people. Even if he wanted to fight, he would fight the weakest Western Xia.
"It's perfectly correct to set the goal of this battle as Xingqing Prefecture." Yelu Ma Ge tried his best to persuade Li Hu to let go of all his worries and fight Xixia with all his might.
Mao Jun and Gao Baolong were determined to fight Xixia. But since Li Hu was determined to fight Xixia, they absolutely supported it.
The Jin army had only a hundred thousand troops in Daibei. It also had to guard the collapsed ridges and deter the desert. Even if it was fighting against Datong, it would not have an advantage in military strength. As long as the main force could return in time, there would be no problem with Datong's safety.
Dong Joker is very cautious
"The army left behind only has more than 110,000 troops, and it is distributed in five places." Dong Xiaohou pointed at the picture. "Supervisor Luo is in Datong, the iron coach is in Yunnei, the Yun coach is in Fengshengzhou, the sword coach is in Shuozhou, and the Dong coach is in Weizhou. If the Jin army attacks, the first choice targets are Datong and Fengshengzhou. But the troops of these two are not enough to reach the Jin army."
"We can concentrate our troops in Datong and Fengshengzhou." Yelu Mage suggested.
"The iron coach cannot move." Dong Xiaohou said. "No matter if it is not lost in the cloud, our withdrawal route will be blocked. So in this way, we can only transfer the sword coach from Shuozhou and Dong Shuai from Weizhou back to Datong. But the troops are also insufficient."
"It doesn't matter if the troops are insufficient. As long as you can hold on for half a month," said Brother Luma. "Half a month later, our horse army has already reached Datong City."
Li Hu weighed the pros and cons, and came up with a compromise plan for four months. If Xingqing Prefecture is not conquered within four months, he will withdraw to Daibei. After four months, he will enter severe winter. It will be detrimental to the attack. If he stays in Helan Mountain to consume grain, it is better to withdraw.
"The money and food of Hulie Mansion are not to support the continuous operation of more than a dozen troops. So we can only fight for four months." Li Hu said. "If attacking, our main force will return to the front set in the near future to protect Datong. But now let's change it. All the main force rushed to the Helan Mountain line to attack with all their strength for four months."
This strategy was unanimously recognized by everyone. If the Jin army wanted to attack Datong, it should choose to be in winter. Because the Tiger Army was already exhausted at that time. Even if they braved the wind and snow, their strength would be greatly reduced. Li Hu made the decision to attack for four months based on this speculation.

On June 21st, Li Hu was about to set off and suddenly received a letter from Tieying. Zong Han was rushing to Yunnei to visit Li Hu.
On June 25th, Li returned to Yunnei to meet Zonghan. He was surprised to find that Wuyan was there too.
Han directly explained the purpose of coming to the north. Before leaving, I wanted to see you and talk to each other openly. The implication is that you should give me a promise not to take advantage of my main force's northward move.
"You will start the Northern Expedition now?" Li Hu was a little disbelief.
"The situation in the desert has changed." Zong Han said. "Yelu Dashi arrived in the western part of the desert. When he arrived in the western part of the desert, the support army of Zhufan became larger and larger, and he wanted to occupy the western part of the desert. So he inevitably fought." This is the trust of Li Hu, who started with a practical truth. Next, I will be able to deceive him.
"Huanglongfu believes that now is the best time for the Northern Expedition. The Supervisor asked me to enter the desert immediately to fight. I will attack Zubu with the Ugu Di Lie and Shi Wei people. Go deep into the northern desert." Han stroked his beard and smiled. "This time I can't come back for a year or two. You have to be careful."
Li Hu's eyes showed a look of doubt.
"The Emperor of the Song Dynasty sent envoys several times to join forces with us to attack Daibei." Zong Han smiled. "You won't know, right?"
Li Hu sneered. He did not deny it.
"After we expedition to the desert, the Song Dynasty can unite with Xixia and attack Daibei." Zonghan asked. "I heard that you are going to attack Xixia again this time. Is it true?"
"My strength is not enough to attack Xixia." Li Hu shook his head. "I will fight Xixia. Both sides will suffer losses. In the end, it will only be a good deal for you and the Song Dynasty. I will not fight this battle."
Han nodded slightly and asked with concern: "Then what are your plans?"
"I won't go north. The square birds in the collapsed ridge won't poop. I don't want to give them to me." Li Hu smiled. "I want to go south."
Han's expression was slightly stern. Gao Qingyi was secretly nervous.
Wuyan looked shocked. He didn't know whether Li Hu's words were true or not. But the Song Dynasty betrayed Li Hu and wanted to join forces with the Jin people to attack and kill Hu. Li Hu was the Liaodong Han Dynasty. His subordinates were also Liaodong bandits. These people killed countless people to survive. Now they are fine.
They ran to the Song Dynasty. As a result, the Song deceived them and killed them. These people. The survival of Li Hu and the Han people in Liaodong was to burn, kill, and plunder. You forced them to be desperate. Of course, they had to fight to the death. The Bianjing group became bigger and bigger. This was going to lose the country.
Wuyan was panicked and confused. He had been in a state of chaos. He had advised Li Hu not to return to the Song Dynasty, but Li Hu did not listen. As he expected, the Song Dynasty was going to kill him. The consequences of Li Hu and the Song Dynasty becoming enemies must be cheaper.
This trip seemed to be in vain.
The reason why he ran to Daibei and was hoping that Li Hu would take the rescue was entirely based on a lucky mentality. The Song Dynasty joined forces with the Jin people to kill Li Hu was an extremely confidential matter. The Song Dynasty definitely did not dare to leak it. It was unwilling to leak it. Li Hu was not willing to leak it. It would not help Li Hu to be prepared. As long as Li Hu didn't know about this and thought that the Song Dynasty trusted him, there would be hope. As a result, Zong Han actually made this matter clear in public. Not only did Hu know it for a long time, but he was also preparing to go south to invade the Song Dynasty.
Wuyan was very sad and angry. He was powerless and had no choice but to do anything. The Song Dynasty was in trouble.

Han didn't expect Li Hu to go south to fight. This seemed impossible to him. But Li Hu was a lunatic. He didn't dare to do anything? If Li took the lead, it would be beneficial for the Jin army to capture Yan Yun. But the next thing would be complicated. The Song Dynasty would immediately recruit Li Hu. Li Hu would not confront the Song Dynasty to the end. The two armies could be defeated by the Jin army.
Han suddenly laughed. "Do you dare to fight against the Song Dynasty? The Song Dynasty is strong. Can you fight? Besides, I am behind you. As long as you go south and go to Hunting. I will fight against Datong."
Li Hu laughed. "Of course I have to be on guard against you. Do you think I will believe you? Even if you really go north to expedition to the desert, I will still be able to deal with you with all my energy."
"Then how do you go south?"
"The Song Dynasty is unstable. Rebellions in Hebei and Shandong are everywhere. I can sweep Hebei with only 50,000 cavalry." Li Hu waved his hand and looked arrogant. "I still have 150,000 troops in Datong. There are 50,000 Khitan troops in Yun. With these 200,000 troops, I can beat you back to the collapsed ridge."
Han's scalp was numb. Gao Qingyi felt a little suffocated. There was no running this road. Who would have expected that Li Hu would also go south. But his south would seriously block the attack strategy of Huanglong Mansion.
Wuyan was almost desperate. The Jin and Han people. Two powerful enemies from the north went south at the same time. The Song Dynasty lost one and the other. How to resist?
"So, I have to consider whether I have gone north to the desert." Han sneered. "If I join forces with Dasong to attack Daibei, do you still have a chance to survive?"
"You'd better not threaten me." Li Hu also sneered. "My strength is stronger now than your Jin army in the West Tent. If you want to turn against me, I'm absolutely sure to defeat you. Then I turn around and go south."
"Can you defeat me?" Han laughed in anger
"Don't count on the Song Dynasty. The Song Dynasty was too busy to take care of itself and did not dare to blame me at all." Li Hu smiled. "Now King Tong Guan and Zhe Yanzhi are in Datong. They came together, just worried that I would go south and invade. As for the people of Xixia, don't count on it. Brother Richard betrayed Yelu Yanxi was just his plan. You helped him. Do you know?"
Han was puzzled.
"Brother Richard started a massacre in Xingqing Prefecture, killing Prime Minister Xue Yuanli and a group of Han ministers. He monopolized power." Li Hu said. "The Western Xia court and the country are in turmoil. Brother Richard is worried about taking the opportunity to attack. He has sent envoys to negotiate peace. You still expect him to send troops to attack Daibei? Go dreaming."
Zong Han was secretly shocked. He didn't know whether Li Hu's words were true or false. But if they were all true, then it was obviously a mistake for the Jin army to attack Datong at this moment. Of course, he had always disapproved of attacking Datong. Before conquering the desert, the Jin army attacking Datong and plundering south all had great risks. From a historical perspective, the Northern Barbarians generally did not easily cross Yinshan before there was a great desert. After all, there was a gap in strength. The Khitans should be able to easily occupy Yan. It was purely because of the Chinese. Otherwise, the Khitans would not have such glory.

Li Hu and Zong Han said something real and falsely, and each got something.
Li Hu knew that Zong Han had no intention of attacking Datong for the time being. And after knowing his intention to go south, he would definitely discuss countermeasures with the Huangfu when he went back. This would give him time to win.
Han Zuo guessed that Li Hu had transferred the main force to the front trap and made a situation of attacking Xixia. He was purely deceiving the Song Dynasty and waiting for the right time. The Huli Army must go south to attack. This may be an opportunity for him to capture Datong.
Wuyan gave up Li Hu. He believed that Li Hu wanted to go. At this moment, telling Li Hu about Jin's strategy of going south was equivalent to helping Li Hu|determination. This kind of thing cannot be done no matter what.
