In early July, Mu Huali asked Buha to go out of Qinlong to make a statement. He himself went all the way south from Datong Mansion in Yunzhong, conquering Sihu Village in Yu County, Taiyuan Prefecture on Hedong Road, Yihe Village in Jinyang, Sanqingyan in Fenzhou, and Huozhou Mountain Fort in Pingyang Mansion on Henan South Road. Finally, he attacked Qinglong Fort, which was rejected by Hu Tianzuo, one of the 'Nine Princes' of Pingyang. The situation was very critical, and Jin Xuanzong quickly ordered the party to open up and Guo Wenzhen, the prince of Jinyang, to the rescue. The reinforcements came to a place 30 miles east of Danping Village and were not allowed to enter. In the end, Hu Tianzuo's subordinates Fucha Dingzhu, the superintendent Wang He tied up Hu Tianzuo, and surrendered out of the fort. Mu Huali immediately ordered Angjitun troops to be in the realm of Jinyang and Jizhou.
On the 10th, Zhang Kai recovered Zezhou on the South River Road.

On the 29th, the star appeared during the day, competing with the sun for glory. On August 4, the comet appeared in the sky, one of the 28 Nakshatras. Check the "Book of Historical Records of Heavenly Officials" and know: The corresponding division of Di Su on the ground is in Yanzhou. Thereupon. Yelu Chucai said to Genghis Khan, "There is such a celestial phenomenon in the heavens, and the Jurchens will change hands", while the hermit Qiao Jingzhen said to Mu Huali who was fighting in the Central Plains: "Looking at the heavenly phenomena today, I can't conquer Mu Huali" Mu Huali replied: "The Lord ordered me to pacify the Central Plains." Although Hebei is flat today, and Henan and Shaanxi are not down, if they do not enter the army because of celestial phenomena, then when will the world be set "9th, because of the comet, Jin Xuanzong amnesty the world, change the Yuan Yuanguang.

On October 8, Zhang Hui's attack on the town of Lingzi in the Kingdom of Jin failed. 9th. The Jin general Wang Tingyu recovered Caozhou on the Shanxi Road, and the Mongol general Shi Qi was killed. On the 21st, Mu Huali led his troops from Xizhou on the southeast road of Hedong and first captured Niuxinzhai in Jizhou. Yang Zhen, the governor of Jinguo Jizhou, committed suicide by jumping off a cliff with his family. Subsequently, Mu Huali captured the lake fortress of Hezhong Province and Linjin County. After that, he went all out to capture Hazhong Province.
Shi Tianying, who was left by Mu Huali to guard Jiazhou, went south to meet Mu Huali at this time. Mu Huali was overjoyed: "You came just in time!" The middle of the river is an important county in the east of the river, and I am about to cross the river to attack Shaanxi. It is necessary to stay here. You go back and clean up, come over and take over immediately, and the whole Hedong Road will be handed over to you."
After Shi Tianying arrived, Mu Huali led his army across the Yellow River and attacked Tongzhou on the Jingzhaofu Road of the Jin State. On the 30th, Jin Xuanzong heard that there were as many as one million officials and civilians on Jingzhaofu Road who avoided the army in Nanshan, so he immediately issued an edict to the Jingzhao prefect Wan Yanting and asked him to pacify him on the spot. On November 3, Tongzhou fell. Jin Guojiedu made Li Fuheng and Tongzhi Jiedu make Wanyan Erke both commit suicide. Subsequently, Pucheng County in Huazhou was also captured. The Mongol army drove all the way and attacked Jingzhaofu, the capital of Jingzhaofu Road. Jingzhao Mansion is the ancient Chang'an City. This city Jincheng soup pool, Zhou, Qin, Han, Sui and Tang all built their capitals here. Even Zhao Kuangyin wanted to move the capital here back then, "going to redundant troops according to the danger of mountains and rivers", it can be said: This was the most difficult city in the whole world to conquer head-on at that time! Even the unprecedented Mongolian god of war in human history led the unprecedented Mongolian iron cavalry! In addition, there are 200,000 gold troops under Wanyan Hada here! In the end, the Mongolian god of war also had to admit the danger of Chang'an. On the 24th, Mu Huali ordered Buha to attack Fengxiang Mansion, the capital of Fengxiang Fu Road.
In early December, Jin Xuanjiao instructed his prince Wanyan Shouxu, "I try to think about the affairs of the world at night, and I must ask for candles to remember, and I will do it clearly." Of course you are."
Jin Xuanzong asked Zhang Kai and Guo Wenzhen to surrender Hu Tianzuo, who was also the 'Nine Dukes' of Pingyang but had now surrendered to Mongolia. So Hu Tianzuo went south to Jiyuan County in Mengzhou on the southeast road of Hedong, and was about to cross the Yellow River to return to the south, and sent a letter to Kaifeng. Unexpectedly, the incident was discovered by the Mongols, and Mu Huali hated it repeatedly and punished him.
Li Quan, who quickly sat down, finally got the smiling face of the Southern Song Dynasty, and Shi Quanchen personally defined him, asking the military to "show him empty and fear of provoking him to change" Under this dominant idea, on the 13th, the Southern Song Dynasty crowned Li Quan as the deputy envoy of Jingdong Road Zhenfu and the envoy of the Baoning Military Festival. Only Li Quan's nominal boss, Huaidong Governor Jia She, was crowned and resolutely opposed to this, "The imperial court but the prefect can win his heart, and Ning Zhijiao will not be persuaded yet"
This is the national policy of the Southern Song Dynasty! Fierce loyalty can only be exchanged for cold reception, even danger. And if you really have bad intentions and rebel, you will increase your official position and gain fame and fortune! Recognizing this, Li Quan's outlook on life changed from the initial defection to his homeland and no other thoughts, to supporting the army and self-respecting, and watching indifferently!
But let's be honest: at this time, Li Quan hadn't thought about breaking with the Southern Song Dynasty! Until the advent of a second goods!
On the 15th, the Jin general Tang Gufang defeated the Western Xia army at the Qingu fortress in Lanzhou, Lintao Road.
This month, Mu Huali abandoned Jingzhao Province and led all the Mongol armies to attack Fengxiang Province.
In this year, the Mongol army, led by Subutai and Jebe, who pursued Mokomat, attacked the unsuspecting Kipchak tribes and occupied them. And after capturing the cities of Khorasan, the army of Tuo Lei pursued Za Kha Din all the way!
In the vicinity of Balu Bay (present-day Kabul, Afghanistan). The Mongol army was confronted by Zaaldin. With all his efforts, he finally managed to accumulate some strength before the arrival of the Mongol army! When the Mongol advance arrived at Fort Wariyan, he made a surprise attack and wiped out the force. When Genghis Khan heard the news, he only felt that he was in a hurry, is this the last resistance? He was too lazy to send any famous generals, but cared about family affection. Let his brother-in-law, the adopted son of his mother, Mrs. Yuelun, lose his luck and suddenly lead 30,000 fine horsemen to go to the levy.
He was the chief judge of the Mongol Empire, responsible for the distribution of households, the trial of prisons, the punishment of thieves, the detection of false punishments, etc., and he was in a high position in the empire, ranking 18th among the 99 thousand households established at the earliest. Enjoying the privilege of impunity for nine crimes, he is a Mongolian nobleman of the first class. The reason why Genghis Khan sent him to the expedition was completely contemptuous of the Mokomet family, and wanted to give the glory of this final blow to his righteous brother to comfort his mother's spirit in heaven...
Bad luck suddenly went out to fight, and he probably forgot one fact, including himself: he was a civil officer, not a professional soldier! But at this time, no one in the Mongols felt that there was any risk in this. Because since the beginning of Mobei. As long as the Mongol soldiers mounted their horses and bent their bows and arrows, no enemy could leave with dignity!
How can the Mokomet family, who are greedy to the point of stupidity and cowardly to the point of perversion, be an exception? The Mongol army does not need any famous generals to be in battle, it is enough to maintain the normal combat strength of the soldiers!
With that in mind. 30,000 Mongolian elite horsemen arrived at Balu Bay! They could never have imagined that what awaited them was the destruction of the entire army!
This is a record that shocked the world beyond believability! It was an unprecedented defeat since the Mongols raised their troops! Even if you look at the entire history of the Mongol war, this is a unique failure! Created by Zaddin, Khan, and Khorezm!
Limited to the lack of historical materials, to this day. No one can say clearly: how did Zaddin command at that time? Why did you create such a miracle? There are only two things we can know:
1 It is probable that Balu Bay is not the Balu Bay north of Kabul in the valley of the Penchihar River, but the city of Balu Hao south of Kabul at the source of Lugar. 2 on the battlefield. Zaaldin ordered his men to dismount, tie the reins of their horses to their belts, and fight the Mongols.
Regarding the first point, no matter which Baluwan it is, it has nothing to do with the essence. The Mongol army is no longer the tribal rangers who were only familiar with steppe warfare. After years of fighting, they have won brilliant victories in all landforms such as hills, mountains, rivers, plains, and cities! Therefore, the terrain is not a limiting factor in their combat power, and none of the information shows that they were ambushed. The second point is more like a legend, full of assumptions that do not understand military affairs. Why dismount? Is it to save horsepower, wait for the Mongolian army to tire out of the war horses, and strike later? Why is the horse's reins tied to the belt? Is it to free up your hands, or even to use a war horse as a shield to facilitate combat? How incredible! The following horse infantry battles can withstand the impact of the Mongolian cavalry, and even drag on until the Mongolian cavalry is tired, so isn't it easier to fight directly on horseback? Why bother? As for using the horse as a shield, or fearing that the horse will run away, it is even more nonsense. If this is the case, can the Mongol warriors, who are a people on horseback, not be used?
Behind all the qiē, there can only be one truth: that is, the amazing combat power of Za Yan Ding and the Khan of Annihilation and the fighting spirit of preferring to die rather than surrender and fight to the end! It was these, coupled with the unlucky and sudden non-professional imbecility, that created the only miracle in the world's military history - the only and biggest defeat of the collapse of the establishment during the rise of the Mongols in the first generation!
In fact, until the establishment of the Mongol state in the Central Plains and the overthrow of the Yuan Dynasty by the Ming Dynasty, the Mongol iron cavalry had never failed in this way! Even the two defeats of the Eastern Expedition to Japan were defeated by typhoons and tsunamis, not by the Kamakura shogunate of Japan!
When the news came, the entire Mongolian army was shocked, and even Genghis Khan, a generation of Tianjiao Genghis Khan himself, could not believe this fact! until the loss of luck suddenly fled back. Genghis Khan immediately ended the battles on other battlefields, recalled the main force, and went straight to Balu Bay! Destroy Zaddin with all your might!
Unexpectedly, the road to the road became unsmooth, the Mongol army marched south from Tali Village, climbed over the Snow Mountain, and entered the siege of Fanyan City, Genghis Khan's favorite grandson, Chagatai's eldest son Motugan was shot to death under this city! It is said that Chagatai is his real eldest son, and Motugan is his eldest grandson! Actually died under this city... Genghis Khan ordered a strong attack day and night, and vowed not to give up if he did not pull out this city!
The corpses under the city of Fan Yan were piled up like a mountain, and the Mongol army stepped on these corpses and climbed to the top of the city. After the city was destroyed, all the creatures in the city, from people to livestock, were slaughtered by the Mongol army, and no chickens and dogs were left!
rushed to Baluwan, but could not find Zha Yanding. Speaking of the unprecedented victory that shocked the world last time, what brought Zha Yan Ding was not honor and prestige, which led to a greater chance of victory in the future, but the betrayal of relatives! The inferior nature of the Khorezm people is really beyond words! After the war, the spoils were divided, and for the sake of a Mongolian horse, there was infighting in the commander's group!
Zaaldin had no choice but to flee again, this time to the end of the day, so he had to go to his fucking mother's home, India! Behind him, cloudy Mongol horsemen swarmed and caught up with him on the banks of the Shen River (Indus)...
In front of the rolling waves of the border river between the two countries, and behind the brutal and ferocious pursuit of peerless combat power, Zha Yan Ding and Zhanli Khan once again showed the true character of a tough guy who would rather bend! The two fought until there was not a single soldier left, and they still fought hard! The Khan escaped under the sword of Jebe and fled on his own far downstream. Under the gaze of more than 200,000 Mongolian iron horsemen, Zha Yanding held the Khorezm battle flag and jumped into the water of the Shen River! Behind him, Genghis Khan ordered the Mongol warriors not to release arrows! He admires this young enemy who never bows his head! Let him flee, and when his eyes are out of reach, Genghis Khan sent another 20,000 iron horsemen to cross the Shen River with 20,000 iron horsemen, go straight into India, and capture Za Yan Ding!
Zaaldin's story doesn't end there! From India to Persia, he finally accumulated the capital to counterattack, and then fought for nearly 10 years, until 1231, when he was finally defeated, fled into the mountains of present-day eastern Turkey, and was killed by the local Kurds... (To be continued......)
