After listening to An Ze's report, Wan Yan Yungong couldn't help but tremble with anger, and immediately ordered the army to rise up, and he was about to go to conquer Wan Yan Changzhi and recapture the central capital.

Fusan Zhongyi and Sushi Lie Zhining hurriedly dissuaded, saying that it was not suitable to march now, so let Wanyan Yungong be patient for the time being, on the one hand, continue to recruit people from all walks of life to expand his strength, and on the other hand, after sending people to find out the truth of Wanyan Changzhi's men and horses, it is not too late to send troops to recruit.

But Wanyan Yungong could still bear it, and he was impatient to send troops immediately. Fusan Zhongyi and Sushi Lie Zhining persuaded each other hard, and when everyone was arguing, someone came to report, Wanyan Changzhi actually took the initiative to lead the army to attack Taiyuan Mansion, and the people and horses arrived in Yizhou.

There will be no more contention this time, Yizhou is about 180 miles away from Taiyuan Mansion, it is not far away, and it is not close to it. However, Yan Changzhi took the initiative to come over, so he could only prepare to face it immediately. So Wanyan Yungong immediately ordered the two to prepare for the battle.

After coming out of the temporary palace, Su Shi Lie Zhining hurriedly sent people to inquire how many troops Wanyan Changzhi brought, and he was soon rewarded, with 30,000 men and horses.

After listening, Fusan Zhongyi and Fushi Lie Zhining looked at each other, thinking that they had misheard. Now there are a total of 1450,000 troops gathered near Taiyuan Mansion, and it is unimaginable that Wanyan Changzhi dared to take the initiative to attack with only 30,000 horses. Su Shi Lie Zhining couldn't help but mutter, "Could it be that Yan Changzhi is crazy?" ”

Although they said that, the two of them also knew in their hearts that Wanyan Changzhi was definitely not crazy, on the contrary, he was an extremely difficult opponent to deal with.

Because both of them are also people who know the art of war, according to the current situation, it can basically be judged that Wan Yan Changzhi did not have many troops on hand in this attack on the Central Capital. It's right to think about it, although Wanyan Changzhi has more than 100,000 troops in Nanjing and Shandong, the Song army is attacking from the Jianghuai area, and he can't be unguarded, so the most men and horses he can use are only 30,000 or 40,000. With such a force, a surprise attack may be successful, but if you want to hold a large city like Zhongdu, it is difficult to double the number of people. In this case, with the character of Wanyan Changzhi, he will never be trapped in the middle capital, so it is better to simply lead the army to fight out and fight with his own army.

Although the disparity between the forces of the two sides is now huge, there are countless examples in history in which the weak defeated the strong. Not to mention, I thought that Yang Yan was able to cross both sides of the Yellow River with only a few thousand elite horsemen, stirring up hundreds of thousands of Jin soldiers, and finally fled to the sea and went by boat, and the Jin people could only sigh with admiration. Wanyan Changzhi can be regarded as the only famous general in the world who can compete with Yang Yan, although he only has 30,000 horses under his command, as long as he is good at scheduling, and uses reasonable tactics to divide and encircle, form a local advantage, and accumulate small victories into big victories, he must not be underestimated. Wanyan Changzhi and Yang Yan are both genius generals who definitely have this ability.

Therefore, after some discussion, the two decided to ignore Yan Changzhi's attack for the time being, and they could not take the initiative to send troops to meet Yan Changzhi. First divide the troops to guard the prefectures and counties around Taiyuan Mansion, stabilize their defense, and if Yan Changzhi attacks him, he will be surrounded and annihilated near Taiyuan Mansion. If Yan Changzhi withdraws his troops, then he will advance step by step, and then advance all the way to Zhongdu. If Wanyan Changzhi does not advance or retreat, he will face each other in Yizhou and Taiyuan Mansion, then he will divide his troops to take the central capital, so that Wanyan Changzhi's head and tail will be difficult to take care of.

After the two discussed themselves, they felt that this method was the safest. Because Wanyan Changzhi used his soldiers like a god, he opened a frame attack with him, and he would only fall for his tricks and be broken by him one by one. The best way to win is to only take advantage of his large number of soldiers and fight with him. The two discussed it several times, thinking that there was nothing wrong, so they came to see Yan Yungong together.

His soldiers and servants Sanzhong Yi and Su Shi Lie Zhining also overestimated the strength of Wanyan Changzhi, and he captured Zhongdu and brought a total of 15,000 men and horses. It's just that after the capture of Zhongdu, the right prime minister Wanyan Zongzheng and Pingzhang Sushi Lieliangbi, who stayed in Zhongdu to preside over government affairs, were also placed under house arrest. The defenders of the city, under the persuasion of Wanyan Fushou, first decided to surrender to Wanyan Changzhi. Then Doljia and Potala came forward in person, and the two went to the camp of the garrison outside the city, and went to tell the main general Wen Dihan about the past troubles, relying on the high prestige of Huining Temple in the eyes of the Jin army, and finally moved Wen Dihan, and also surrendered to Wanyan Changzhi. In this way, Wanyan Changzhi's strength reached more than 30,000 people.

At this time, the battle situation on the Western Xia side also spread to the central capital, and learned that Wanyan Yungong was defeated in the Western Xia, and nearly 200,000 troops were dismantled. Wanyan Changzhi immediately gathered with Wanyan Fushou, Nalan Ming'an, Doljia, Potala and others to discuss how to deal with it.

But after hearing that Yan Changzhi wanted to pull all the 30,000 horses out and fight Wanyan Yungong, not only did Wanyan Fushou and Nalan Mingan start, but even Doljia and Potala were also surprised. Is it difficult to finish Yan Changzhi's plan to gamble?

Wanyan Fushou couldn't help but say: "Changzhi, isn't it too risky for you to do this, although Wanyan Yungong was defeated in Western Xia, but after all, it was not the annihilation of the whole army, I heard that he has now gathered 1450,000 horses and horses." And we only have 30,000 horses, although you have always been good at using troops, but it is too unwise to go head-to-head with him in this way, I think it is better to garrison in the city of Zhongdu Yicheng is the best policy. ”

Wanyan Changzhi shook his head and said, "Father-in-law, if you want to hold a big city like Zhongdu, you need at least 100,000 troops. We only have a total of 30,000 horses now, and we can't hold it, so it is better to take the initiative to attack instead of defending. ”

Wanyan Fushou said: "Of course I know what you said, but we are guarding the central capital, according to the city, we can always hold out for a while longer, and then transfer the monk Chen to lead the army to come back to help, and attack inside and outside, and we can win in one fell swoop." It's better than being outnumbered. ”

Wanyan Changzhi still shook his head and said, "Now that Monk Chen is resisting the Song army, there are still spare troops there to support us, if there is, I have already brought them." You can rest assured, although there are many people and horses who are full of Yan Yungong, they are all defeated troops in Western Xia, and the men and horses are tired, and most of the soldiers' families are in the Zhongdu area. ”

Wanyan Fushou heard him say this, and he had a little bottom in his heart, and then Doljia said: "Changzhi, although you are right, don't forget, Fusan Zhongyi and Sushi Lie Zhining are also experienced generals who are proficient in the art of war, and they can't be taken lightly." If it is me who leads the army, I will definitely not fight you immediately, but take Taiyuan Mansion as the core, first stabilize the defense, and then divide the troops to cut off your grain route, at most a month, you can't stand it, see how you deal with it? ”

Potala said: "Its practicality will not be more than a month, if it is my army, I will divide my troops to attack the central capital, at most ten days is enough." Moreover, such a method will definitely be thought of by Fusan Zhongyi and Su Shi Lie Zhining, and you can't despise them. ”

Wan Yan Changzhi nodded and said, "The two masters are right, I have never underestimated Fusan Zhongyi and Sushi Lie Zhining. But the two uncles, father-in-law, and Uncle Nalan, don't forget that among the enemy army, the person who really has the final say is not Fusan Zhongyi and Sushi Lie Zhining, but Wanyan Yungong, instead of focusing on dealing with Fusan Zhongyi and Sushi Lie Zhining, it is better to put more effort into Wanyan Yungong, as long as Wanyan Yungong is defeated, even if there is a famous general like Yang Yan in the enemy army, it will be useless. ”

Hearing him say this, the four of them were thoughtful, vaguely catching something from his words, but they couldn't say what they were. However, seeing that Yan Changzhi was so confident, he could see that he had already made a plan, so Wanyan Fushou said again: "Changzhi, we will estimate this article first, but if you take all the people away, what about Zhongdu, and what about Wanyan Zongzheng, Sushi Lieliangbi and other ministers?" ”

The way of finishing Yan Chang: "We don't want to go to the middle capital first, and let all the people go." After we put all the people in the capital, my father-in-law and uncle should not stay in the capital, and take the family to Yizhou for a while. ”

Wanyan Fushou couldn't help but be a little stunned, and said: "Changzhi, it was not easy to capture the central capital, how can you say that you don't want it?" ”

Wan Yan Changzhi patiently explained: "After we take all the people away, Zhongdu is an empty city, and we can come and retake Zhongdu at any time." And whether we succeed in this move this time is all about the victory or defeat of this battle with Wanyan Yungong, not whether we can defend the Central Capital. Wanyan Zongzheng and Sushi Lie Liangbi are all smart people, they should understand the current situation, and they will definitely wait for us and Wanyan Yungong to separate the winners and losers before making a choice. If we lose this battle, then even if we leave the men and horses, we will not be able to hold the central capital, on the contrary, if we win, then when we return to the central capital again, I am afraid that they will take the initiative to open the gate and welcome us into the city. Therefore, there is no need to care about the gains and losses at this time, concentrate all the troops, and fight this battle wholeheartedly. ”

After everyone heard this, they had to think that what Wan Yan Changzhi said was reasonable, and then Nalan Ming'an said: "Changzhi, if after we leave the Central Capital, Wan Yan Yungong divides his troops to take the Central Capital, what should we do?" ”

Wan Yan Changzhi smiled slightly and said, "Uncle don't worry, I won't let Wan Yan Yungong divide his troops to take the capital." ”

Everyone looked at each other when they heard this, and they didn't understand what kind of medicine was sold in Wan Yan Changzhi's gourd, but the situation was now, there was no other way than to trust Wan Yan Changzhi, and at the same time, they still had considerable confidence in Wan Yan Changzhi's ability to use troops, and seeing that Wan Yan Changzhi was so confident, they didn't object anymore, and unanimously agreed to Wan Yan Changzhi's plan.
