Temujin's arrival at the Black Sand Castle was three days later. It turned out that after Temujin returned to the army this time, he did not dare to delay more when he learned the news of the battlefield of the Jin State, and immediately recruited 80,000 horses to attack the Jin State, plus the men and horses under Mu Huali, the total strength of the Mongolian army was more than 110,000, which can be said to be an unprecedented large-scale man and horse in Mongolia. ，。

Yelu Ahai, who stayed in Huanzhou, also reported to Temujin that during this period of time, he had made contact with a Khitan descendant in Liaoyang, named Yelu Liuge, and he had recruited a group of Khitans who were dissatisfied with the rule of the Jin State, and prepared to launch a coup d'état in the Shangjing area of the Jin State, hoping to get the support of the Mongol army.

Because according to the agreement between the Song and Mongolia, the Shangjing area was the scope of the Mongol army's attack, such as Xuande Prefecture and Datong Prefecture were all within the scope of the Great Song Dynasty's troops, but Temujin thought that his ancestors were avenging, and the Song army also hoped that the Mongol army could contain the Jin forces here, so they acquiesced to the Mongol use of troops in this area.

However, now that there are people in the Shangjing area, Temujin naturally will not miss this opportunity, and immediately ordered Jebe and Subutai to lead 40,000 horses, plus Yelu Ahai, to capture Shangjing together.

After arranging the attack on Shangjing, Temujin led the rest of his men and horses to Wusha Fort to join Mu Huali. During these three days, Mu Huali also commanded the Mongol army and launched several exploratory attacks on Yehuling, but the Jin army was well defended, and the Mongol army did not make much progress. Therefore, it was temporarily withdrawn to Usha Fort to be stationed.

After listening to Mu Huali's introduction to the battlefield, Temujin also nodded and said: "Mu Huali, you have done a good job, the Jin country is such a big country, it is not comparable to the Nabarian and Kereh tribes, and there are strong cities everywhere, which are more powerful than Hara Khitan, and it is not easy to defeat them." ”

Later, Mu Huali introduced to Temujin the two generals of Yira'er and Guo Baoyu, and Temujin was also very courteous to them, and at the same time praised Yira'er's plan of "taking Wusha Castle first, and then Yehuling" [latest chapter]. At the same time, he also discussed with the generals the plan to enter the Wild Fox Ridge. Although part of the attack on Shangjing was divided, there were still more than 70,000 men and horses used to attack Yehuling, of which more than 40,000 were Mongol troops, and the rest were other ethnic groups. The strength is not not weak.

Yi Ra'er and Guo Baoyu are both people who are familiar with the terrain of Wild Fox Ridge, and in the past few days, they have personally led people to the vicinity of Wild Fox Ridge, and they have captured a lot of patrolling golden soldiers, and they have learned a lot of the situation of Wild Fox Ridge from their mouths.

It turned out that Wanyan Changzhi also knew the news that the Mongolian army was heading south, and immediately transferred troops to prepare to block the Mongolian army at Yehuling. After a patchwork, dismantling the east and making up for the west, at this time, more than 180,000 Jin troops were gathered in the Yehuling area, and Wanyan Changzhi would also personally rush to Yehuling three or four days later to command the Jin army and the Mongolian army to fight a decisive battle.

In just a few days, the Jin army gathered more than twice as many men and horses as the Mongol army, which also made the Mongol generals have to suppress the strength of the Jin country. Moreover, the Wild Fox Ridge is a high mountain, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and with Wanyan Changzhi personally in command, even Temujin felt that it was very difficult to attack the Wild Fox Ridge.

At this time, Guo Baoyu got up and said, "The Great Khan is in a hurry, in my opinion, it is not difficult to capture Yehu Ridge. ”

Temujin listened, nodded, and said, "General Guo has any ideas, just say it bluntly, even if there are incomplete places, we can all find a way to make up for it together." ”

Guo Baoyu said: "Don't look at the Jin army's large number of troops, but the people and horses are all transferred from everywhere, the actions are different, the lack of unified orders, and there is no need to worry, and Wanyan Changzhi has not yet arrived in Yehuling, and no one in the Jin army can command and dispatch at present, how can the Jin army fight?" What's more, although the terrain of Yehuling is dangerous, there are no less than ten roads to cross the ridge, and the Jin army must divide troops to garrison, and our army can just concentrate forces and attack all the way, so the capture of Yehuling is in one move. ”

When Temujin heard this, he laughed and said: "Okay, General Guo is really resourceful, I have General Guo's help, not to mention that capturing Yehuling is to capture the Central Capital and enter the Central Plains, which is also easy." ”

Guo Baoyu shook his head and said: "Great Khan, Mongolia sent troops this time to capture the central capital, but if you want to enter the Central Plains, I am afraid that it may not be possible to achieve ten years of success." ”

When Temujin heard this, he did not get angry, but said with interest: "Why? ”

Guo Baoyu said: "The Central Plains is powerful, and the Song and Jin dynasties are both powerful countries, which cannot be ignored [Di Da Recommendation]. When the Central Plains is based on Xutu, it cannot be taken, and at the beginning of the founding of Mongolia, it is appropriate to issue a new order. It is a long-term policy to prohibit the orders of the military and civilian ministers, and there are rules to follow. ”

Temujin couldn't help but laugh again, turned to Yelu Chucai and said, "Long beard, did you hear it, General Guo thinks the same as you." ”

Yelu Chucai also smiled and said: "What the capable people in the world see is the same. I only hope that the Great Khan will listen to General Guo's words and be blessed for the establishment of the Mongolian state for all generations. ”

Temujin smiled and said, "You have already set a new decree, so please promulgate and enforce it immediately." ”

Yelu Chucai smiled, took out a piece of paper from his sleeve, handed it to Guo Baoyu, and said, "General Guo, please see, I don't know what else needs to be modified." ”

Guo Baoyu took it and took a look, only to see that it was written on the paper: 1. You must not kill in vain when you go out of the army; 2. Only serious crimes shall be punished by death in prison, and the rest of the miscellaneous offenders shall be sentenced to punishment; 3. Military households, Mongolians and Semu people start an army for each ding, and the Han people have four acres of land and three people sign an army; Fourth, fifteen years old and old, sixty years old, the station household and the military household are the same; The land of the people is limited to one hectare; 5. Those who are not beneficial to the country and harmful to the people are prohibited.

Although these five decrees are simple, they are also very clear and understandable, so Guo Baoyu also admired them and said: "It turns out that the Great Khan and Mr. have already thought of this. ”

Temujin immediately named Guo Baoyu as the commander of the horse capital, and Feng Yi'er as the marshal of Bazhou, and both of them participated in the conspiracy in the camp. Then he ordered that Shutian start attacking Wild Fox Ridge, and he must capture Wild Fox Ridge before Wan Yan Changzhi arrived.

In fact, Wanyan Changzhi didn't want to come to Yehuling early, but he was sitting in Taiyuan Mansion, and he was also facing attacks from both sides by the rebels and the Song army, so he had to make some arrangements first, and thinking that there should be no problem if the army of more than 100,000 troops held Yehuling for a few days.

And sure enough, as Guo Baoyu expected, at this time, although the Jin army concentrated more than 180,000 troops in the Yehuling area, they were all transferred from Datong Mansion, Linhuang Mansion, Zhongdu, Taiyuan Mansion and other places, and the main generals of each army, Duji Sizhong, Wanyan Chengyu, Wanyan Jiujin, Dingxue, Wanyan Husha and others were basically at the same level, so before the arrival of Wanyan Changzhi, no one could command anyone, and no one could obey anyone [Read more]. If one of Shi Mo Yanshan or one of Pu Cha Dingzhu is sent to Yehu Ridge, he can also command all walks of life, but since Wanyan Changzhi plans to personally garrison Yehu Ling, then Shi Mo Yanshan and Pu Cha Dingzhu will naturally stay in the Taiyuan area to resist the Song army and rebels.

Wanyan Changzhi originally thought that it was only two or three days of effort, and there would be no big problem, but he knew that it was this small negligence, but it caused a big disaster.

※※Support original ※ "Song Xiang" was first published in ※Support genuine ※※

The Mongol army took the passage of the badger's mouth as the main breakthrough of the Wild Fox Ridge. The guard of the badger's mouth is Wanyan Chengyu, who turned out to be a subordinate of Sushi Lie Zhining and was sent to support Yehuling. The defenders numbered more than 10,000 people.

In fact, when Guo Baoyu suggested that Temujin use the badger's mouth passage to attack, he was also opposed by many Mongolian generals, because this is the most precipitous section of the Yehuling Mountain, and it is almost impossible for war horses to pass. But Mu Huali insisted on supporting Guo Baoyu's suggestion, the reason is very simple, even the Mongol army itself thinks that it should not attack the badger's mouth, so the Jin army must think the same, so the guard must be lax, which just gives the Mongol army an opportunity to take advantage of.

Bo'er still disagreed, and said: "Where the Jin army's guards are lax, but even the war horses can't climb up, how can we attack it?" ”

Mu Huali said generally: "If the war horse does not come out, we can get off the horse and climb up with our legs, the Mongolian warriors, is it difficult to be a coward who does not dare to fight if he loses his war horse?" He turned to Temujin and said, "Great Khan, I am willing to personally lead the men and horses to attack on foot, and attack the Wild Fox Ridge from the badger's mouth." ”

When Temujin heard this, he immediately decided to send Mu Huali to lead 20,000 Mongol troops as the main force to dismount and fight on foot to attack Badgerzui, and at the same time sent Mongol troops to launch a feint attack on Yehuling from all directions to contain the strength of the Jin army. And Guo Baoyu and Yi Ra'er also took the initiative to ask to join Mu Huali's offensive team. Temujin allowed it at the moment.

Early the next morning, the Mongol army launched an attack from all roads in Yehuling. For a time, there was a burst of killing, and the Mongol troops from all walks of life ignored the rugged mountain roads and rode their horses to attack the mountains. The various Jin armies defending on Yehu Mountain did not know that it was the main direction of attack of the Mongol army, and there was no unified command, so they could only fight separately.

And at this moment, Mu Huali, Guo Baoyu, and Yi Ra Er led five thousand pioneers and horses to quietly come to the mouth of the badger. With Mu Huali's order, the Mongolian soldiers dismounted together and climbed towards the Wild Fox Ridge.

Sure enough, as Mu Huali expected, Wanyan Chengyu also believed that the Mongolian army, which was mainly cavalry archery, would definitely not use this as a breakthrough. Therefore, although the other roads were very nervous, he was very leisurely, and even took a team of personal soldiers to hunt on the ridge. The main general is like this, and the soldiers are naturally relaxed, gathering together, chatting and playing chess, playing treasure and gambling money, and each has their own fun, and the guards are very empty. The subordinate general Shi Mo Ming'an kindly reminded him to be careful about his defense, but was scolded by Wanyan Chengyu and drove him away from him.

Just when Yan Chengyu was hunting, suddenly a golden soldier ran to him in a panic and said in a panic: "Report to the general, the big thing is not good, the Mongolian army has attacked Yehuling with scriptures." ”

Wanyan Chengyu was stunned for a moment, and said, "It's from where you attacked Wild Fox Ridge, but do you want us to send troops to support?" Tell them that I can't send reinforcements here. ”

The golden soldier said: "It's not anywhere else, it's from the mouth of the badger!" ”

"What?" Wanyan Chengyu couldn't help but be surprised, but he was still a little skeptical, and said, "How is this possible?" War horses can't get into the mouth of badgers at all? How did the Mongol army come up? ”

The golden soldier said: "The Mongol army did not ride horses, but climbed up. ”

After Yan Chengyu heard this, he became nervous and said, "What about Shi Mo Ming'an?" He's there, didn't I send him back to defend? What's he doing? ”

The golden soldier cried with a sad face and said, "Shi Mo Ming'an and his brother Shi Mo were loyal to the battle and surrendered to the Mongol army. ”

Wanyan Chengyu was so angry that he stomped his foot fiercely and said, "This Khitan mongrel, I have long known that I shouldn't trust them." ”
