Chapter 768: Yanyun Decisive Battle (5) (Ask for Subscription!) )
…
At the beginning, after learning that Wan Yan Xian had also left Yanjing to go to Yundi to participate in the war, Yue Fei and his generals and staff officers decided to be arrogant after studying Yan Hulugu's character.
After that, Yue Fei sent his generals to take turns to fight Wanyan Hulugu, and ordered them to defeat but not win, so that Wanyan Hulugu returned to his previous arrogance.
In addition, time, luck, and fate also made the demon of the Bai clan come out, which caused the Jin army to fight among themselves.
This gave the Chinese army the opportunity to capture Yanjing.
And because of the concubine ceremony held by Yan Lugu, many high-ranking generals of the Jin Army went to congratulate him and were not in his position, and there was a Han'er under Xiang Chun as the internal response, which led to the process of the Chinese army seizing Yanjing very smoothly.
Because the Chinese army captured Yanjing very quickly, especially the big and powerful general Wang De attacked the Yanjing Imperial City as soon as he entered Yanjing, as a result, the Jurchens living in the imperial city were almost all taken by the Chinese army.
After the war, Wang De's people were stunned to find that the families of the generals in the Yanyun area were all here, including the families of the late Jin generals Wanyan Zonghan and Wanyan Zongwang, as well as the families of Wanyan Chang, who were negotiating peace in Bianliang in Tokyo at the moment, and even the concubines of Wanyan Xianye, the families of Wanyan Lou, and the families of Wanyan Yinshuke were all captured by the Chinese army.
It turns out -
The Jin people knew that Yan Yun would inevitably not be guaranteed after the peace between the Jin and Jin people, so they wanted their families to withdraw from Yanyun, so they gathered all their family members in Yanjing, which was easy to defend and difficult to attack and guarded by heavy soldiers and famous generals, and was ready to find an opportunity to send them back to Shangjing.
In fact, if it weren't for Yue Fei besieging Yanjing, the families of these Jurchens would have withdrawn back to Shangjing.
Unexpectedly, in this way, the families of these Jurchens were served by the Chinese army.
Knowing that all the family members of the important officials of the Jin Kingdom in the Yanyun area had been arrested by himself, Wang De was overjoyed, which was definitely a great achievement.
After the great joy, Wang De hurriedly ordered people to properly protect the families of these important people in the Yanyun region, and sent news to Yue Fei as soon as possible.
Unexpectedly, Yue Fei couldn't take care of these little things at all.
Yue Fei, who was good at grasping the fighter plane, took advantage of the fact that the Jin army had not yet reacted that Yanjing had been lost, and directly sent Li Yanxian and Wang Gui to attack Juyong Pass and Bauhinia Pass respectively, and sent Wu Ge from Changshan Pass (called Tieguan in the Northern Wei Dynasty, also known as Hongshan Pass, commonly known as Reverse Horse Pass after the Ming Dynasty) to take the Lingqiu Road into the Shanxi Plateau, and fight Bauhinia Pass and Juyong Pass.
Juyong Pass, Bauhinia Pass, Changshan Pass (Reverse Horse Pass), known as the Inner Three Passes, is the most important defense line in the west of Yanjing, here has always been a place where soldiers must fight, there have been countless wars here in history.
At the beginning, Yue Fei defeated Yizhou, mobilized Wang De, Li Yanxian, Wang Gui, and Wu Ge, and folded tens of thousands of people to lay down the best Changshan Pass.
Now, if the Jin army has not yet reacted and quickly defeated Juyong Pass and Bauhinia Pass, it may not be much price to pay to defeat these two Xiongguan.
What's more critical is that the location of these two Xiongguan is too important, and they are directly related to the safety of Yanjing.
In addition, after occupying these two Xiongguan, Yanyun can be regarded as a place, and the strategic depth has also greatly increased.
As for Yanjing, which has already been defeated by the Chinese army, what is there to worry about.
Therefore, Yue Fei threw all the affairs of Yanjing to Wang De, and personally commanded the army to capture Juyong Pass and Bauhinia Pass.
It was a bloody battle.
I won't go into detail about the process.
In short, Li Yanxian and Wang Gui lost nearly 20,000 horses, and in the end, with the help of Wu Ge, they barely managed to defeat these two Xiongguan.
Moreover, this is because Li Yanxian and Wang Gui were caught off guard by beating the defenders of these two Xiongguan, otherwise, even if the Chinese army paid such a big price, it might not be able to take these two Xiongguan.
Yue Fei, who has always been in command on the front line, was overjoyed after learning that Juyong Pass and Bauhinia Pass had been captured.
Yue Fei immediately ordered that Li Yanxian should be stationed at Juyong Pass and Wu Ge should be stationed at Zijing Pass, while he himself would join Wang Gui and the rest of the generals after leaving another 30,000 horses for Wang De to go out of Juyong Pass to Yundi to participate in the decisive battle of Zhongjin.
At this moment, the two armies of China and Jin fought together again near the Yuhe River between Huanzhou and Yunzhong.
Speaking of which, this war actually has something to do with Yue Fei.
Not long ago, Yue Fei wrote a letter to Liu Qi and Han Shizhong, telling Liu Qi and Han Shizhong that he was recently preparing to capture Yanjing in one fell swoop, hoping that Liu Qi and Han Shizhong could cooperate.
Liu Qi and Han Shizhong discussed and agreed that the best way to cooperate with Yue Fei to attack Yanjing was to leave Wan Yan Xianye, the extremely difficult commander of the Jin army, in Yundi - if Wan Yan Xian was allowed to return to Yanjing, Yue Fei would definitely not be able to defeat Yanjing.
It's not that Liu Qi and Han Shizhong look down on Yue Fei, but Wanyan Xian is really powerful - he has fought against four of the five tiger generals in Dazhong, and he has not really been defeated.
There is also Wanyan Lou Room, his degree of difficulty is not below Wanyan Xuanye at all - before this, the reason why Liu Qi and Han Shizhong did not advance an inch after capturing Shuozhou and Yingzhou was not only because of their own insufficient troops, but mainly because the Jin army that blocked Liu Qi and Han Shizhong was led by Wanyan Lou Room, and he did not give Liu Qi and Han Shizhong the slightest chance.
Wan Yan Xian Ye and Wan Yan Lou are the top generals in the Jin Kingdom, and there is no one.
Open the resumes of the two of them, what Wanyan Zonghan and Wanyan Zongwang, including the later Wanyan Zongbi (Golden Vulture Technique), are all beyond reach.
Let's put it this way, if it weren't for Wan Yan Xian Ye and Wan Yan Lou Room, the Jurchens would never have the momentum they have today.
The former, is the undisputed first commander in the world, the commander of the army to destroy the Liao State, the commander of the army to destroy the Northern Song Dynasty, history, after the establishment of the Southern Song Dynasty, he as the commander of the Southern Expedition, led Yan Zongbi to attack the south of the Yangtze River, captured Lin'an and Mingzhou, forced Zhao Gou to flee to the sea, if he did not die too early, the Southern Song Dynasty designated him to be destroyed.
The latter, can be said to be the world's first general, in the war of destroying Liao and attacking the Song Dynasty, he commanded the army, from the northeast battlefield to the northwest, galloping on most of the land of China, it can be said that he is invincible, he has made great achievements, and is famous all over the world for his great wisdom and bravery, in history, even Wu Jue and Li Yanxian were defeated in his hands, if he did not die, the Southern Song Dynasty may also be destroyed.
After Li Yan appeared, Liu Qi and Han Shizhong also became famous generals in the world, they and Wan Yan Xian and Wan Yan Lou Room can be described as chess opponents will meet good talents, how can they not want to defeat Wan Yan Xian Ye and Wan Yan Lou Room?
What's more important is that Wan Yan Xian is still something that Wu Jue and Yue Fei have not been able to defeat, if Liu Qi and Han Shizhong can win in battle, it proves that they are slightly better than Wu Jue and Yue Fei, and the five tiger generals in the big and middle can be regarded as having a comparison.
Therefore, Liu Qi and Han Shizhong have repeatedly fought with Wan Yan Xian and Wan Yan Lou, and even fought decisive battles.
But—
It's a little different from the previous wars.
Wanyan Xian also faintly felt that something might be wrong with Yanjing, because Yanjing hadn't sent him news of peace for four days, which was a little different from what Wanyan Xian had agreed with Wanyan Lugu - at the beginning, Wanyan Xian also agreed with Wanyan Lugu that every three days, Wanyan Lugu sent someone to report to him about the safety and the situation in Yanjing.
Therefore, Wan Yan Xian also discussed with Wan Yan Lou and decided to split the victory with Liu Qi and Han Shizhong today!
