On the morning of April 24th, Yizhou, Kaiyi County.
The Jin soldiers of the brigade were withdrawing from the front line south of Kaiyi County to the surroundings of this small county. It was completely different from the state they were in when they passed by here before. This army, which still numbered more than 200,000 people (including Ali Xi's auxiliary soldiers), now seemed to have lost its soul. It's just that people are swarming in panic from the battlefield in the south and crowding around Kaiyi County. No one knows where the path forward for the Kingdom of Jin lies.
Now everyone knows that Jinzhou City has been lost!
And they all know that the situation in the Great Jin Kingdom is very bad, and it is likely to end!
Jinzhou suffered a terrible defeat. Jinzhou, which was so strong, was defeated by the Southern Army in just a few days. The 40,000 troops guarding Jinzhou City were almost destroyed, and Wanyan Seri was also beheaded by the Southern invaders... They were all cut into pieces, so miserable!
What's even more frightening is that the Nanke army that besieged Jinzhou numbered over a million, and they also had thousands of big, rough and big tubes. These big tubes also contained fried pots and hot-iron lumps that could scald people. They were so cruel. No conscience at all!
What is even more terrifying is that the millions of Nan bandits who captured Jinzhou also followed the defeated soldiers who escaped from Jinzhou and went all the way north to Yizhou!
What's even more terrible is that the backbone of the Kingdom of Jin, the emperor's father Bo Jilie Wanyan Zongqian, was frightened to the point of fainting by millions of Confederate troops at this moment. He seemed to be seriously ill and might have died... ..Even if you are not dead now, you will definitely not wake up!
Because when the army retreated from the front line, Wanyan Zongpan and Wanyan Zongqiang forced Wanyan Zongqian's personal soldiers to stay in the rear!
If Wanyan Zongqian could still wake up, it would be impossible for Zong Pan and Zong Qiang to do this.
Oh, there is something even more fatal... Only the truly well-informed people know, that is, Wanyan Zongpan and Wanyan Zongqiang are currently running for the team in Kaiyi County. A heated argument!
The enemy's million-strong army was about to catch up, but Dajin didn't even think about where to escape.
Wanyan Zongpan wanted to bring the troops around Kaiyi County, as well as the Dajin court and Wanyan Liang's court hiding in Yiwulu Mountain, to his home base of Liaoyang. He also wanted to bring Wanyan Zongbi, who was currently in Wanyan Zongbi's army, with him. Yan Liang also withdrew to Liaoyang.
Wanyan Zongqiang advocated that the entire army retreat to Linhuang Mansion in Beijing, where Dajin was located. This was of course what Wanyan Zongqian meant before he fell into coma.
But in Wanyan Zongqian's view, evacuating Linhuang Mansion in Beijing is just sitting there and waiting for death, and there is no place to run!
"Where is Linhuang Mansion? It is the capital of the Liao people and the home of the Khitan people. Linhuang Mansion is surrounded by Khitan tribes... and the remnant Liao of Yelu Dashi now controls the west of Qianli Pine Forest. In the Mobei grassland, they can leap over thousands of miles of pine forests to kill Linhuang Mansion at any time. If the southern army goes north from Yizhou and kills Linhuang Mansion from the east along the Liaohe and Huanghe rivers, it will be impossible to reach the sky. There is no road left! Even if we can fight them off once or twice, we will miss the farming season!
According to King Yigu, the only way to survive now is to retreat to Liaoyang...and then retreat into the mountains and dense forests of Liaodong, with the Kingdom of Korea at his back. As long as he can survive until winter, Zhao Kai will have to retreat to avoid the cold. Even if they do not return to Shanhaiguan, they still have to withdraw from Liaoyang and Shenzhou. "
Wanyan Zongpan's eyes swept across the lobby of the Kaiyi County government office, taking in everyone's expressions.
The faces were full of panic, unwillingness and confusion.
Wanyan Zongpan took a breath and said loudly: "Even if Zhao Kai's army can hold on in Liaoshen, we can still go south to Korea and Japan to create a good situation.
If we go to Linhuang Mansion and are besieged by Nan Chao and Can Liao, where else can we go? Are you going to return to your hometown in Huining Mansion? There are so many of us now. Can we still survive on the bitter cold land of Huining Mansion? Besides, after we went to Liaoshen, the road north to Huining Mansion was not cut off! "
In fact, Wanyan Zongpan still wanted to go to Korea and Japan.
Because it is an agricultural area, enough food can be produced.
Linhuang Mansion is mainly surrounded by grassland. Although it is fertile, no matter how fertile the grassland is, it cannot compare with the agricultural area, and the population it can support is very limited.
Moreover, the land around Linhuang Mansion was too flat and could easily be attacked by the Song and Liao armies, making it impossible to produce with peace of mind.
If millions or more Jurchens and Bohai people fled to Linhuang Mansion, how would the food problem be solved?
After listening to Wanyan Zongpan's words, everyone felt that it made sense and nodded in agreement.
"The King of Liao is right! Now Korea is in our hands, and Princess Yan has established a foothold on Kyushu Island in Japan. We are not afraid of having nowhere to go."
"Yeah, it's better than going to Linhuang Mansion, right? If you go to Linhuang Mansion, you'll really have to sit back and wait for death."
"Unless you go to the West like Nianhan and others to make a living."
"There is no way...Yelü Dashi has now firmly controlled the Mobei grassland, and the Southern Dynasty has built many fortresses on the Monan grassland!"
While everyone was talking in favor of Zong Pan, they turned their attention to Zong Qiang.
But Wanyan Zongqiang didn't say a word.
Wanyan Zongqiang is not only a member of the Aguda family, but he is also Wanyan Zongbi’s half-brother!
So if he follows Wanyan Zongpan, he will not get any good results!
However, he is not afraid that Wanyan Zongpan will forcefully eat his troops (actually the troops of Zong Qian, Yelu Qi and others), because he still has more than 20,000 people on hand, and Zong Pan wants to fight internally, and he will not be able to eat them for a while.
And millions of Song troops are rushing towards Kaiyi County... The Jin soldiers here in Kaiyi County will be in danger of being annihilated if they delay for one more moment!
In fact, the army led by Wanyan Zongpan and Wanyan Zongqiang had been delayed in Kaiyi County for nearly a day and night in order to decide where to escape!
If you delay any longer, you won't be able to escape.
So Wanyan Zongqiang just said nothing and waited for Wanyan Zongpan to give in.
Wanyan Zongpan also looked at the silent Wanyan Zongqiang, his face gradually darkened, he really couldn't hold his breath anymore, and after a long while, he let out a heavy groan: "Alu, you are bringing the emperor's father, Po Jilie, with you. Huang Mansion..."
Wanyan Zongqiang breathed a sigh of relief, and just when he was about to speak, he suddenly heard a rumble of muffled thunder!
Wanyan Zongpan stood up suddenly and said to Wanyan Zongqiang: "Alu, it seems that the southern army is attacking Zhahe Meng'an, where the emperor's father is extremely powerful. They can't resist for long... Let's retreat quickly. !”
After speaking, he strode out of the lobby of Kaiyi County without waiting for Wanyan Zongqiang to speak. The Jurchen generals who supported Wanyan Zongpan also stood up and left together with cheers. Only the die-hard generals of Zong Qian and Zong Qiang are still sitting there. You look at me and I look at you.
Wanyan Zongqiang finally opened his mouth this time, and there was a sneer on the corner of his mouth: "Let's go too...but we can't run to Linhuang Mansion right away, we have to get into the Yiwu Lu Mountain and the court's palace first Let's gather together and hide for a while. When the Confederate army chases Puluhu's men and leaves, we can go to Linhuang Mansion."
Wanyan Zongwang's son Wanyan Qi was also in the lobby at this time. After hearing Zong Qiang's words, he asked: "Eighth Uncle, do you think the Liao King's army can't escape?"
Wanyan Zongqiang snorted: "Puluhu is right, going to Linhuang Mansion is going to risk death... The only way out is to go east. But what he has thought of, Zhao Kai and Yue Fei will Unexpected?
Moreover, we have been delayed for a whole day in Kaiyi... The vanguard of the Southern Army has arrived long ago, but it has never attacked Zhahemengan, where the emperor's father is extremely powerful. Why is this? "
Wan Yanqi's face was livid, "Eighth Uncle, once the Liao King's hundreds of thousands of people are gone, our Dajin..."
Wanyan Zongqiang smiled bitterly: "Just take it one step at a time...at worst, we'll go back to our hometown in Huining Mansion!"
As he spoke, he stood up and looked around, "Let's go, follow a certain family... a certain family will take you back to your hometown!"
go back home? The Daikin generals present all sighed, their hometown is suffering!
But besides home, where else can I go?
...
Wanyan Zongqiang's guess was not wrong. Zhao Kai and Yue Fei had dark hearts. What they wanted to eat was the main force of gold thieves in Kaiyi. They also wanted to capture Guangning Prefecture, Liaoyang Prefecture, Shenzhou, Xianping Prefecture, etc. The land completely established the overall situation of the Song Dynasty in the Liaoshen Plain!
So after Wanyan Zongxian was crowned the leader and Jinzhou City changed hands, Zhao Kai and Yue Fei couldn't even wait for the street fighting in Jinzhou City to end. They divided into two armies and marched all the way to Yizhou; Guangning Prefecture in front of them advanced to cut off the Yizhou Jin Army's retreat to Liao and Shen.
Moreover, there is still cooperation between these two armies. Going to Yizhou are the Second Army, the Third Army, and the Sixth Army under the command of Qu Duan. After joining up with Wu Jie's Thirteenth Army, , then approached Kaiyi County, but did not launch an attack immediately. Instead, they waited for the main force of the four armies led by Yue Fei to cross the Daling River and repel Wanyan Zonggu's troops east of the Daling River, and then launch an attack on Kaiyi County.
The Song Army's split-up pursuit and outflanking operations began on April 22, before the Battle of Jinzhou ended!
Among them, the troops led by Yue Fei went first. On the night of the 22nd, they passed the pontoon bridge built by the 14th and 15th armies of Wu Jie's East Route Army. Then they merged with the two armies, making a total of six armies. A total of 150,000 troops rushed towards Wanyan Zonggu's troops.
When Wanyan Zonggu discovered that the Song army was crossing the river, he already knew something was wrong. How could he still dare to resist? He chose to run away at the first opportunity.
Once Zong Gu ran away, there were no more Jin soldiers from Daling River to Guangning, and Guangning Fucheng was almost an empty city, unable to resist Yue Fei's army.
Therefore, on the 26th, Wanyan Zongpan's army of more than 100,000 people (including about 100,000 regular soldiers) who had crossed Yiwulu Mountain and fled towards Liaoyang ran into 15 troops led by Yue Fei who had already set up a net. The main force of thousands of people!
