Yelu'an's troops and horses were all lost, and his generals also lost seven or eighty-eight. Even Yelu'an himself would inevitably die in battle.
After the war, after a simple post-war statistics and rest, Wang Yu had sent Xue Rengui to go straight to Bailong Mansion first, while he and Wang Dangzhi divided their troops into two groups, one on the left and the other on the right. In the same way, they moved towards Bailong Mansion.
By the way, I also included several Dongyi cities along the way.
However, by the time Xue Rengui's troops arrived, the civil and military forces led by Zheng Zongliang and Halacha had already taken the initiative to open the city gate and surrender.
When Yelu Abaoji's secret troops began to operate in Bailong Mansion, Wang Yu's snare certainly couldn't make ends meet there!
Although anyone with a discerning eye can see that Wang Yu's men are essentially invaders and conquerors from outside. However, there is never a shortage of people in this world who resist to the end for the sake of persistence, but there are also never a lot of weaklings, especially when there are steps.
For some Dongyi people, what are steps? The puppet barbarian court established by Yelu Deqing was naturally the step. Save the barbarians through curves, this is their step.
For some people, although they have the courage to not be afraid of death, this courage is extremely fragile compared to those who are truly fearless. Without this step, they might resist to the death, but once they are given this step, they have a reason to go down the slope.
Undoubtedly, Wenwu led by Zheng Zongliang and Halacha are such people!
Although Bailong Mansion is strong, it has few soldiers and generals, so it is difficult to defend it for a long time. If everyone is united, they may give it a try. However, this premise is not true. Since Yelu'an did not come back, people's hearts have been in turmoil. How can they dare to defend it?
In despair, Gu Yiduocha was inevitably moved by the hidden soldiers in the end, and led the remnants of Yelu'an's family towards the Zhongping Road.
After continuously losing troops and generals, Yelu Abaoji, who himself suffered heavy losses in this war, after hearing that Yelu An had died directly in battle, although he no longer wanted to continue fighting against the Cang Army alone, especially with a short-sighted teammate like Yelu Defei.
However, he would be very happy to support Yelu'an's remnants. Yelu Abaoji needed the political meaning behind these people to serve him.
As long as these people can be mastered, Yelu Abaoji will be crushed by everyone from all sides when facing Yelu Defei. And facing Yelu Qingde, the name of a traitor is enough for Yelu Abaoji to always have the advantage of righteousness. .
Although Yelu Abaoji temporarily gave up on Xiping Road, not only because Yelu'an's war had completely reduced their chances of winning to the lowest point, but more importantly, he had other plans.
Yelu Abaoji did not really want to abandon Xiping Road, but for long-term considerations.
Dongyi had already gone through a huge civil strife, and all the forces were severely weakened. At this time, they were naturally at a disadvantage when fighting against the Cang Army, and the final result was defeat after defeat.
Therefore, Dongyi needs to recuperate and regain his strength before fighting again.
Secondly, it is impossible for the Cang Army to maintain such a huge force within Xiping Road.
This time, Wang Yu and the Zhendong Army dared to mobilize such a large number of troops into Xiping Road. Essentially, their external environment allowed them to mobilize such a large number of troops.
But they could not allow their rear to remain empty. It's okay for a short time, but if it's a long time, there will always be problems.
Sooner or later, the battle between the various forces in Da Cang will have a winner, and the civil strife between Beidi in the north will also have a winner sooner or later. Being empty in the rear for a long time is a huge risk for Wang Yu and the Zhendong Army.
If they lose the three lands of Hebei, Yanbei and Yannan, let alone the Xiping Road, even if they take all the five Dongyi Roads, it will be a loss.
Without the rear as the foundation, and without Hebei, Yanbei, and Yannan taking the blame, no matter how much territory Dongyi conquers, it will only be water without roots.
Therefore, Yelu Abaoji decided to wait and endure for a while. One day in the future, they could let Wang Yu spit out everything he had eaten, and even spit out more.
The big aristocratic forces, mainly the Ku family, had no choice but to leave. They wanted to be stubborn and hold on here, but the problem is that other people didn't accompany them to hold on here at all. If they didn't If you follow him, you will end up waiting for death in the end!
Of course, even if a big family like Ku's leaves, it's impossible for all of them to leave, and there may even be a considerable number of clan members left behind. Xiping Road is the foundation of the Ku family. If they all leave, do they really have to give up everything?
The rest are the people headed by Zheng Zongliang and Halacha. The Ku family is too big. Even if they leave, although their vitality will be greatly damaged, they will not die.
However, these people led by Zheng Zongliang and Halacha cannot. If they choose to leave, they will really give up everything! Driven by profit, they chose to stay.
Even as the conqueror, it is impossible to kill everyone. Without the help of the Dongyi people, the Cang people will never be able to truly rule Dongyi. Just like the Mongols of the Yuan Dynasty did not exclude the Han people from their ruling class, the Manchus of the Qing Dynasty also did not exclude the Han people from their ruling class.
For people like Zheng Zongliang and Halacha, any conqueror would only welcome them but not reject them. The more people like them, the easier it is for them to establish true rule.
Since then, the most powerful resistance force on Dongyi Xiping Road has completely collapsed. Those who can leave must have left as much as possible. Some of the remaining ones surrendered like Zheng Zongliang, and some resisted to the end. There will never be capitulationists in this world, but there will never be enough true resistance factions.
Even as a conqueror, they welcome those surrendering factions, and those resisting factions who are not afraid of life and death and resist until the end, although they will cause trouble to them, may actually gain their true respect.
On the march, Wang Yu, after learning that Bailong Mansion had been obtained and some of the current situations on Xiping Road, made a prompt decision. The soldiers and civilians along his route continued to advance in the direction of Bailong Mansion, and ordered Yelu Qingde's puppet barbarian court to At the same time, they headed towards Bailong Mansion.
Wang Dangzhi's soldiers and horses advanced more aggressively, divided into multiple groups of soldiers and horses, and immediately entered the major cities on Xiping Road.
