…

Zhi Yanzhi once served as an official official in the Xuanfu Division, and together with Xie Qian, the deputy envoy of the system, sent troops from the Weisheng Army to the north, and fought a bloody battle with the Jin people in Nanguan for four days, and finally returned defeated.

After the seed master Dao succeeded Li Gang as the Xuanfu envoy, he promoted Zhi Yanzhi to the staff officer of the Xuanfu Division.

Later, the seed master Dao was ordered to return to Beijing due to serious illness, and before leaving, he recommended Zhi Yanzhi to the imperial court to serve as the deputy envoy of Xuanfu.

During the period from the time the seed master left the Xuanfu Division to Fan Ne's assumption of office, the Xuanfu Division was actually represented by Zheyan.

Zhe Yanzhi is Chongning Jinshi, the seventh grandson of Ruan, the second son of Zhe Keshi, the tenth generation general of the Zhe family, he was a civilian official during the Huizong period, due to the invasion of the Jin people, when the country was in danger, he resolutely threw his pen from Rong.

After Orihiko was originally a general, he was also a very talented general, but although he dared to fight in the battle against the Jin soldiers, he rarely won victories.

In terms of facts, this is actually not a matter of complaining about Yan Qian, at this time, the Song army was actually already afraid of the Jin army, even if Yue Fei and Han Shizhong were replaced to lead, it would be difficult to win the battle.

After Zhi Yanzhi succeeded the seed master as the deputy envoy of Xuanfu on Hedong Road in Hebei, he actively organized a defense line in the Hedong area.

However, in a hurry, Zheyan could only set up two marshals' mansions in the east and west, namely Longde Mansion and Pingyang Mansion, hoping to use the second marshal's mansion to stop the Jin army's footsteps southward.

The Eastern and Western Marshal's Mansions, which could be pinned on by Zheyan, were quickly broken by the Jin army.

There are subjective reasons such as the fear of the enemy and the fear of war.

For example, the Pingyang Mansion made Lin Jiren and his ilk flee before fighting.

There are also objective reasons such as insufficient soldiers and lack of food and grass.

For example, the Huiniuling was as steep as a wall, and the Song army could have controlled this place and fought a victorious resistance war, however, because of the lack of food, the soldiers could only eat two liters of peas or stale wheat every day, so they were unwilling to sell their lives. ”

When the Jin army came to the foot of Huiniu Ridge and looked up at the top of the steep mountain, they all said: "If they attack from above with arrows and boulders, we will be seriously injured, what will we do?" ”

The Jin army therefore hesitated at the foot of the mountain and did not dare to launch an attack.

However, soon, the Song army on the mountain dispersed automatically.

The Jin army then easily crossed back to Niuling, advanced to Pingyang Province, and then conquered Pingyang Province.

The fall of Pingyang Province marked the collapse of the Song defenses in the Hedong region.

Soon after, the Jin army of the Western Road reached the Yellow River.

In the Hedong Theater, the Jin army on the west road was fierce and unstoppable, and the Song army had collapsed on all fronts and was plunging for thousands of miles.

In another theater of operations, that is, the Hebei Theater, the Jin Army on the East Road was even more long-distance interspersed, vertical and horizontal, although Zhongshan, Hejian and other important towns were still in the hands of the Song Army, but they had become isolated cities, and the situation was precarious.

The highest decision-making level of the Jin State was far away in the northeast and Shangjing, so it was impossible to grasp the dynamic situation of the Hedong and Hebei fronts in time, so for the advance of the armies on the east and west routes, Wanyan Wu Qimai could only order the Marshal's Mansion to implement it in Changcao according to the actual situation, and there was no need to ask for instructions on everything.

And the marshal of the two armies, nominally Wanyan Wu's younger brother Wanyan Xian also served as Wanyan Xie, but Wanyan Xian also stayed in Shangjing to serve as the Chen Ban Bo Jilie, and governed the state affairs together with Wanyan Zonggan.

Therefore, the Marshal's Mansion was actually located in the Wanyan Zonghan Army.

Therefore, Wanyan Zonghan actually became the supreme commander of the Jin East and West Army.

Before sending troops, Wanyan Zonghan had summoned a meeting of the senior generals of the Jin Army in the Marshal of Yunzhong to discuss the policy towards the Song Dynasty.

At that time, Wanyan Zonghan decided to fulfill the peace agreement reached between Wanyan Zongwang and the Song State on behalf of the Jin State, that is, if the Song State could cede the land of the Three Towns and pay compensation, the Jin army would stop moving south, and if the Song State did not cede the Three Towns, it would seize it by force.

In other words, even if it was the second army, Wanyan Zonghan actually had no intention of crossing the Yellow River, and his ultimate goal at that time was to draw a river with the Song State as the boundary of the Yellow River.

However, after successfully capturing Taiyuan and Zhending, Wanyan Zonghan considered the situation in the Hedong and Hebei battlefields and believed that the Song court was corrupt and the army was vulnerable, so he redeployed at the meeting of senior generals of the Pingding Army, and changed the combat goal of the eastern and western armies to meet under the city of Bianliang.

In other words, at this time, the Jin people were no longer interested in cutting the three towns, and they had a great appetite and tried to annex more territory of the Song Kingdom, plunder more wealth and beauties, and the robber nature was completely exposed.

Knowing that the Jin army was about to cross the Yellow River, Zhao Huanjun panicked, and on the one hand, he hurriedly sent a peace envoy to Taiyuan to discuss the matter of cessing land and discussing peace, and on the other hand, he organized to strengthen the defense to defend the capital.

The former has nothing to say, several waves of peace envoys went to the Jin army to beg and surrender, so that the Song State was disgraced and not to mention, the key is that it was also used by the Jin people, and as a result, the Song court was paralyzed.

Latter.

Zhao Huan Junchen has made a clear deployment:

1. Set up four governors around the capital, namely, the northern, southern, western, and eastern defense zones, which were respectively authorized to Zhao Ye, the prefect of the Daimyo Prefecture, Wang Xiang, the prefect of Henan Prefecture, Zhang Shuye, the prefect of Dengzhou Prefecture, and Hu Zhiru, the prefect of Yingtianfu, who were solely responsible for all affairs in their respective defense areas.

2. Deploy the Xuanfu Division to guard the Yellow River. ordered Xuanfu's deputy envoy Zhi Yanzhi to lead 120,000 troops to guard the area of Heyang to block the Jin army on the western road; Xuanfu ordered Fan Ne to command 50,000 troops to guard the area of Huazhou and Junzhou to block the Jin army on the East Road.

3. Li Hui, a member of the Privy Council, was sent as an envoy to patrol the river, and led 5,000 cavalry to inspect the banks of the Yellow River. And under the very difficult financial situation, he took out a large amount of gold and silver and let Li Hui take it to reward the soldiers guarding the river.

From the deployment of Zhao Huan Junchen, it is not difficult to see that Zhao Huan Junchen is a defense deployed by the Yellow River.

In Zhao Huanjun's mind, more than 100,000 soldiers would be able to block the Jin people on the north bank of the Yellow River, and then slowly negotiate peace with the Jin army.

When the vanguard of the Jin army, Wanyan Lou Chamber, led his troops to the north bank of the Yellow River near Heyang, Zhi Yanzhi had already led his army to withdraw from Heyang, retreat to the south bank of the Yellow River, and join up with the 5,000 cavalry brought by Li Hui.

The Jin army was on the north bank of the Yellow River, and the Song army was on the south bank of the Yellow River, and the two armies camped between the rivers.

Wanyan Zonghan was very worried about the vanguard army crossing the river, and successively sent more than a dozen scouts to investigate the situation of the Song army's river defense.

The scouts reported one after another: "The southern soldiers are very prosperous, and they cannot be crossed lightly. ”

Wanyan Zonghan then summoned the generals to a meeting to discuss the issue of crossing the river.

At the meeting, it was suggested to rest for a few days before fighting.

Wanyan Lou disagreed, saying: "Although there are many Song soldiers, there is no need to be afraid. The battle with is unknown. If you don't make a false sound, take the war drums in the army, and beat them up to a day, so as to see the changes. ”

All the generals agreed.

In the evening, the war drums of the Jin army continued to ring all night.

(It is said that when the Jin soldiers got tired of beating, they tied the sheep to the drum and let the sheep beat the drum.) ）

The Song army on the south bank of the Yellow River heard the Jin army drums so densely and feared that the Jin army would use the pontoon bridge to attack, so they set fire to the Heyang pontoon bridge.

At this time, on the north bank of the Yellow River, there were still two or three hundred subordinate officials of the Xuanfu Division, many local officials, as well as many fleeing people, and about 10,000 war horses, all of which did not have time to cross the river.

Looking at the raging fire on the surface of the Yellow River, the cries on both sides of the river were dry.

In addition, the Xuanfu Division still had a lot of gold and silver silk, which had not had time to be transported to the south bank, and there were about more than 1 million yuan of those who were abandoned in the Yellow River beach in Heyang.

At dawn the next day, Wanyan Lou heard that the Song army on the south bank of the Yellow River had disappeared, so he sent Yin Zhu Xiaojin to lead 3,000 men and horses, together with Zhang Kezuo, the former commander of the Weisheng Army, who had surrendered, to set out from the Qinghe boundary to explore the way to cross the river.

Yin Zhu and Zhang Kezuo came to the edge of the Yellow River and found that the river was not too deep, so they led their army to wade through the water, and then quietly camped behind the Song army camp.

Although Zhe Yanzhi claimed to have 120,000 soldiers in his hands, most of them were the defeated troops of the Taiyuan Siege Relief Battle, and some were newly recruited militiamen.

These people are all like frightened birds, and their combat effectiveness can be imagined.

Zhi Yanzhi still knows his own team, and knows how vulnerable this temporary regiment is.

Therefore, seeing that the Jin army was camped behind, Zhe Yanzhi thought that the Jin army had all crossed the river, so he hurriedly led the Chinese army to retreat south.

When the other armies saw that the commander had withdrawn, they all collapsed without a fight.

The rout of more than 100,000 horses was out of control at the first shot.

As a result, there was an irreparable rout.

When Li Hui heard that the Jin army had crossed the river, he also hurriedly fled south.

When he ran to Xiaoyi Bridge, Li Hui left his soldiers here to defend the enemy, and he fled along the mountain road to Yingchang Mansion, and then drank and enjoyed himself all day long.

At the moment of the great enemy, Li Hui actually feasted with Wanguan in Yingchang Mansion.

The accompanying officials and generals were deeply angry and wanted to find an opportunity to kill Li Hui.

The main cavalry of the Jin army came to the north bank of Heyang, and was overjoyed to see that the Song army was defeated without a fight!

The Jin army ordered the army to cross the river quickly, and at the same time drove the inhabitants of Heyang City out of the city, allowing them to dig up all kinds of gold and silver silk that had fallen into the river beach.

The Yellow River, which was pinned on by Zhao Huan Junchen and even thought it was foolproof, was crossed by the Jin army, and then the Jin and East armies went straight to Tokyo like two steel knives......
