The Jin army thought that they could take Lizhou City soon with their real strength, but soon they found out that they were wrong, and they were surprised to find that the defense of Lizhou City had changed dramatically almost overnight, and they paid many times higher prices for each step of the attack, and the casualties were large, and the city wall, which was very easy to attack in the past, suddenly became an unreachable distance, and it was impossible to attack at all!
At the same time, the Jin army was also surprised to find that the number of "Liao Army" on the city wall suddenly increased sharply, in addition to those Song people who had just rushed into Lizhou City yesterday, there were actually many more people wearing ordinary people's clothes, although those people did not directly enter the battle, but were helping the Liao army to carry out some auxiliary work, but also brought great convenience to the Liao army, at least liberated many Liao soldiers so that they could concentrate on fighting!
Obviously, all these changes happened with the entry of those Song people into the city.
Although the Jin army was extremely angry, it was also helpless, and could only attack Lizhou City day and night regardless of the cost, and the defenders on Lizhou City were also resolutely counterattacking under the command of Hua Rong and Zeng Mingyi!
When the battle lasted until the tenth day, both sides reached a state of near the limit, and the casualties on both sides were very large, but in general, the casualties of the Jin army were larger, especially when the commander of the Western Route Army of the Jin army, Wan Yan Wu, commanded the army to fight at a distance of three hundred and fifty steps away from Lizhou City, and was killed by several cold arrows suddenly shot from Lizhou City at a long distance and killed him!
The Jin army can no longer bear the huge casualties, in just ten days, the 50,000 army has lost more than 10,000 people, this is not the ordinary Jin army that lost, but the Jin country regards as a treasure of the purebred Jin people composed of Meng'an Mooke! But Lizhou City showed no signs of being breached. This is the first painful defeat that this Meng'an Mouke, composed of purebred gold people, has suffered since the anti-Liao!
The Jin army finally stopped the attack, they retreated to the original place, only re-encircled the city of Lizhou, and then sent a military report to Wanyan Lou Room, who was still commanding the army on the front line and waiting for the Liao army to take the bait, the generals of the Jin army implored Wanyan Lou Room to send Meng An Mouke, composed of people from other tribes, to attack the city, the Jurchens are too precious, one dies is one less, and the advantage of the Jurchens is to fight on horseback, not suitable for this kind of siege warfare at all, in the face of this almost meat grinder-like battle, let those worthless lives to fill it!
Soon, they received a reply from Wan Yan Lou Room, but the content of the reply surprised the generals of the Jin Army, they didn't expect that Wan Yan Lou Room not only approved their request that they no longer need to attack Lizhou, but even ordered them to immediately withdraw their troops from Lizhou and rush back to Liaodong!
What the? Is this to give up the attack on Lizhou? The army has put in so much effort and made so many efforts, especially the nearly 20,000 purebred Jurchen soldiers who have died on the battlefield of Lizhou, how can they give up so easily?!
These Jin army generals didn't want to leave, they couldn't swallow this breath, they wanted to ask why Yan Lou wanted to retreat!
Unexpectedly, Wanyan Lou Room seemed to have expected their reaction for a long time, only an hour after the first letter arrived, and his second letter arrived immediately after, in which Wanyan Lou Room told them the truth, and this truth also completely shocked everyone, even more shocking than the previous letter,
Originally...... Yeluchun did not lead the army to rescue Lizhou, but suddenly led the army to cross the sea under the protection of a mysterious fleet in hundreds of ships, large and small, and forcibly landed in Liaodong from Jian'an Port!
At this time, all the main forces of Dajin were fighting against the Liao army on the front line, and the rear troops were extremely empty, and Ye Luchun's attack came very suddenly, and there was no army in the entire Liaodong region to stop them, so they were directly attacked by them all the way to the city of Liaoyang Mansion!
Liaoyang Mansion is the former Liaoguo Tokyo, and it is also the current Tokyo of Daikin, if Tokyo is lost, it will be a heavy blow to Daikin, and it will also have a serious impact on the morale of the Jin army everywhere! And Tokyo is very prosperous, the climate is also more pleasant than Jin Shangjing, which is far away in the extremely cold place, many nobles of Daikin have settled their families in Tokyo, Tokyo is going to be lost, these nobles will fall into the hands of Yeluchun, and the consequences will be disastrous!
The emperor was furious and urgently ordered the Jin army from all over the country to rush back to help Tokyo, especially the North Route army led by Wanyan Loudi, as an army dedicated to dealing with Yeluchun, they actually let Yeluchun attack Tokyo by sea without knowing it, what a serious mistake! If something happens to Tokyo and the nobles inside, it will be difficult to apologize even if Wanyan Lou Room commits suicide!
Wanyan Lou Room was shocked after receiving this news, because his whole family was also in Tokyo, he didn't dare to delay, in fact, there was nothing to hesitate, Ye Lu Chun went to Tokyo, now even if he waited here for the sky, it was useless, his first reaction was to immediately lead the army to attack Liao Nanjing Mansion, as the so-called way of others to give back to his body, since Ye Lu Chun went to Tokyo, then his Nanjing must be empty of troops, as long as he takes Nanjing, Ye Lu Chun must come back immediately to rescue, The crisis in Tokyo was naturally solved.
But after thinking about it, he didn't dare, Yeluchun is cunning and cunning, since he dares to fight Tokyo, he must not be afraid of accidents in Nanjing, and it is even very likely that he has set up an ambush for himself in Nanjing, as long as he dares to go, not to mention the ambush, he will lose the last opportunity to rescue Tokyo! And Wanyan Lou also has enough reason to believe that Ye Luchun was able to carry out this big sneak attack with the help of the Great Song Dynasty!
In the end, Wanyan Lou Room sadly happened that he had to immediately rush back to rescue Tokyo this way, he did not wait for the order to Lizhou's subordinates, the letter from Lizhou requesting the transfer of troops came, Wan Yan Lou Room almost vomited blood when he saw it, he didn't expect that the war in Lizhou City had been so bad, and in a fit of rage, he only issued an order for the Jin army that surrounded Lizhou to withdraw quickly.
As a result, only an hour after the order was issued, he suddenly realized that with the temper of those subordinates, he was afraid that they would not agree to withdraw from the army, and would ask himself again for reasons, so that he would have to delay a lot more, so he had no choice but to write a second letter.
The generals of the Jin army did not hesitate any longer after figuring out what was going on, because not only Wanyan Lou's room, but also many of them settled their families in Tokyo, and if Tokyo was about to be lost, everyone would be alone, and the interests of the country could only be put in second place compared to the lives of their own families and clansmen.

When the sun rose as usual and the earth was bright again, the people in Lizhou City were stunned when they saw everything in front of them, and everyone's faces were full of deep disbelief.
I saw that the Jin army, which had been camping outside Lizhou City and had besieged Lizhou City for more than a month, had gone clean overnight, and judging from the many things they had left, they were in a hurry, so that they were willing to leave a lot of supplies.
Everyone was both excited and worried, lest this be another trap set by the Jin army, and immediately someone reported the situation to Hua Rong and Zeng Mingyi, and the two were also surprised, and immediately climbed the city wall to take a look, and found that the Jin army was really gone.
Zeng Mingyi hurriedly asked Hua Rong what to do, he was now looking at everything with Hua Rong as the head,
Hua Rong pondered for a moment and ordered the whole army to continue to be vigilant to prevent the Jin army from going and returning, and at the same time sent a dozen scouts to go out on horseback to find out.
Two hours later, the scouts returned, and in addition to bringing back the news that the Jin army had really withdrawn, they also brought back a person, who was a Khitan soldier who had returned to see Yeluchun with Yelu Buguye, who told Hua Rong and Zeng Mingyi that Yeluchun had gone to attack Tokyo and ordered him to come to deliver the letter.
Hua Rong suddenly realized, and couldn't help laughing, "Okay! Good plan! ”
Zeng Mingyi finally believed that Lizhou City was really saved, and he couldn't help but cheer loudly with excitement.
It didn't take long for the entire Lizhou City to boil together!
