Chapter 820 Tieli Country

On the sixth day of April in the second year of Taikang, the spring in the north is bright, in this day of recovery, the people of Liaodong ushered in a nightmare, on this day, more than 20,000 **** together with the Goryeo servant army arrived in Dandong along the surging Yalu River, and on the same day they sent troops to storm the Kaizhou City in Dandong. Kaizhou is subordinate to Liaoyan, because Murong Fu transferred troops to conquer Dading Mansion, resulting in the emptiness of the rear troops, Murong Fu's main defensive energy was put on Huanglong Mansion and Zhenhai Mansion, Kaizhou City Garrison is only less than 3,000 people, such a small number of people, plus Kaizhou is not a strong city in the first place, only held for an hour before announcing the change of ownership. Kaizhou is just a beginning, and everyone almost habitually thinks that after taking Kaizhou, the next step will be to attack Yaozhou and Muzhou to the west, cut off the connection between Liaoyang Mansion and Zhenhai Mansion, and then concentrate forces to eat Zhenhai Mansion in the south.

Zhenhai Mansion, as the place where Murong Fu started, is very important to Liao Yan, and now almost all the baggage from outside Liaodong has been transported from Zhenhai Mansion. However, Zhao Yougong didn't want to do this, it was good to fight Zhenhai Mansion, but was Murong Fu a fool? Murong Fu is very smart, since he dares to leave, he must have confidence in Zhenhai Mansion, presumably there are many soldiers and horses stationed in Zhenhai Mansion. Storming Zhenhai Mansion, of course, can be taken, and it can also deal a heavy blow to the entire Liaodong coalition army, but if you do that, you will lose a lot of time, and now the most important thing for the **** is time, the situation in the Central Plains is urgent, and the Liaodong battlefield must end as soon as possible. Zhao Yougong has been planning a plan in his mind, he wants to give up the line of Zhenhai Mansion, Liaoyang Mansion, and Huanglong Mansion, and fight directly from the treacherous mountainous area in the east. Directly attack Huining Province in the hinterland of Liaodong. The location of Huanglong Mansion and Liaoyang Mansion is dangerous. The military value is enormous. If it can be captured, it is naturally very good, but the problem is that it is not easy to fight, Yelu Dashi and Yelu Sha's soldiers and horses are ironclad and cannot rush to the Liaodong battlefield in a short time, and they can rely on these people under their hands, only less than 30,000 people want to open up the line from Liaoyang Mansion to Huanglong Mansion, and they really don't have much confidence, and the combat effectiveness of the Jurchens is not comparable to that of the Goryeo.

Winding from the east to Hoi Nyeong. The resistance will be much smaller, on the way not only to cross the Changbai Mountain, but also to cross the Mudanjiang River, between the Mudanjiang River and the Changbai Mountain, there is also the most powerful tribe of the eastern Jurchens, Pulu Maoduo, not to mention the mountains, but also to the fastest speed to lay down the Pulu Maoduo, the difficulty is not small. And after going around to Huining Mansion, there is also a very important problem, how to defeat the Jurchen army in Huining Mansion in the shortest possible time, otherwise it will be delayed for a long time. The soldiers and horses of the Huanglong Mansion and the Jurchens of the various ministries all gathered in Huining Mansion, and it was a lone army to go deep. It's a situation of being besieged. At that time, let alone defeat Huining Mansion, whether or not it can survive is a matter of whether it can survive. Any decision is pros and cons, it seems that there is no benefit to the **** from the east to Huining Mansion, but it is not a chance at all, as far as Zhao Yougong knows, the surroundings of Huining Mansion are not monolithic, there is a small country called Tieli Country in the north of Huining Mansion, don't look at the Tieli Country There are few small soldiers, only a few cities, but the people of Tieli Country are fierce, and they have fought many times with the Jurchen and Murwei people over the years, although there is little chance of winning, but the Jurchens and Murwei people have not been able to put Tieli Country how. More than ten years ago, Wanyan Aguta rose between the white mountains and black waters, unified the Jurchen tribes, and fought the Murowei people to submit to the knees. Since the territory of the Tieli Kingdom is within a hundred miles north of Huining Mansion, if the land of the Dajin Kingdom is a piece of white flour cake, then the Tieli Kingdom is the piece of black mud on the flour cake, which has always been a thorn in the flesh of the Jurchens. Zhao Yougong dared to go around to the east, and he had the confidence to persuade the Tieli Kingdom, the contemporary king of the Tieli Kingdom had a redundant heart to the Liao Dynasty, although now the Great Liao is gone, but he Zhao Yougong has another identity, the Khitan Yao to chase the golden sword of the people. In the Tieli Kingdom, the identity of the Liao Dynasty's golden sword and horse was far more effective than that of the regent of the Great Song Dynasty. As long as it is said that the Tieli Kingdom will help, the joint army will attack Changchun Prefecture, and lead Yelusha's soldiers and horses into the north of Huining Mansion.

After laying down Kaizhou, Ding **** was not busy attacking, but sent a wide range of horses, one day, enough to figure out the situation of Zhenhai Mansion and Huanglong Mansion, because Tang Miao entered Changbai Mountain in advance, so the matter of inquiring about the news fell on Hu Sanniang, at this time all the generals in Kaizhou Mansion were in the list, Sanniang said the current situation, "Now there are more than 15,000 defenders in Zhenhai Mansion, Bao Wei and Deng Baichuan were ordered to garrison, Liaoyang Mansion is garrisoned by Gongsun Qian and Wanyan Zongbi, the fourth prince of Jinguo, The detailed number of defenders is unknown, but in the first month of this year, Wanyan Zonghan mobilized tens of thousands of soldiers and horses from Huanglong Mansion and has not left so far, so the defenders in Liaoyang Mansion are at least 10,000. ”

After listening to Sanniang's narration, all the generals had a concept in their hearts, that is, they wanted to fight Zhenhai Mansion and Liaoyang Mansion in one go, which was almost a fool's dream. However, these news also strengthened Zhao Yougong's idea of giving up attacking Zhenhai Mansion, and seeing that everyone was embarrassed, Zhao Yougong motioned for Sanniang to sit down again, and said, "Judging from the current situation, it is almost impossible for our army to swallow Zhenhai Mansion and Liaoyang Mansion with the strength in their hands." However, Liaodong's troops are limited, and since almost all the soldiers and horses left by Murong Fu and Wanyan Lao Er are stationed in the land of Sanfu, the defensive force in the east is bound to be weak, so this king intends to attack Huanzhou in the east and arrive at Huining Mansion from the east. ”

Every time there is a predicament, Zhao Yougong must have amazing words, but this time it is really amazing, when the generals of the Dingguo Army went to Goryeo, they knew that they would definitely attack Liaodong in the end, so they had already understood the situation in Liaodong. Huanzhou is definitely the nearest fortified city west of Changbai Mountain, conquer Huanzhou, you can enter the Changbai Mountain Range, once you enter Changbai Mountain, it is too difficult for the Jurchens to capture the traces of Ding****. But doing so also takes a lot of risk, how can you safely go north when you enter the vast mountains and forests? In later generations, Changbai Mountain still retains many rare primeval jungles, not to mention that now, birds and beasts in the forest are alive, and dangers are everywhere, even the most powerful Jurchen hunters dare not go deep.

"Your Highness, the last general thinks this method is feasible, although it is a big risk. But it's much smaller than storming the land of the Three Mansions. But even if it goes to Huining Province. We will also encounter great resistance, after all, the strength is limited, in case we can't break the deadlock in a short time, the young people left by the Jurchen tribes will definitely rush towards Huining Mansion like flies smelling blood! ”

What Gao Zhong said was also the question of most generals, they were not afraid of danger, but they didn't want to make senseless sacrifices, Zhao Yougong nodded. He smiled faintly and said, "What Chang Ke said is very true, don't worry, this king has already thought of this, as for the Huining Mansion, this king has already had an idea, and he will allow this king to sell it for the time being." ”

The matter of Tieli Country is a secret, and once it is said, it will not be able to achieve a surprising effect, although the people in the hall are all their own people. But Zhao Yougong didn't like to take that risk, once the affairs of Tie Li Kingdom were known to the Jurchens in advance. They will definitely destroy the Tieli Kingdom at all costs, so that he Zhao Yougong will have no chance. Seeing Zhao Yougong's calm expression, everyone had no doubts, His Royal Highness had done this before, and in the end it all showed that he was right.

The first meeting in Kaizhou made the Goryeo generals feel a little awkward, 20,000 **** fought in the south and north in Goryeo, and fought in the east and west, and never put any city in his eyes, even if Li Ziqian and Wang Bengu's coalition army, Zhao Yougong dared to face it head-on. The royal capital of Pyongyang is so strong that it dares to fight ****. But why did you run into Zhenhai Mansion, Liaoyang Mansion and Huanglong Mansion, and Ding **** didn't fight, it seems that there are not too many defenders in the three mansions. The Goryeo generals have a feeling of being despised, are the Goryeo soldiers really inferior to the Jurchens and Liaoyan soldiers and horses?

After nightfall, Tang Miao has not come back, Zhao Yougong has no intention of sleeping, Mu Nuxia led Yue Laosan to work for a day during the day, and he had already fallen asleep when he was tired, and only Sanniang was closely accompanied by him. The crescent moon on the horizon is bent, drawing a graceful arc, and I don't know whose heart it hooks. There was a slight sound of footsteps, a faint fragrance, and I knew that it was Kim Tae-hee who came. Zhao Yougong was surprised, frowned and said with a wry smile, "My Majesty, what time is it, don't go to sleep yet!" ”

Kim Tae-hee's beautiful eyes swept over, his small mouth opened, but he didn't speak, as if he was afraid that Sanniang was here, Sanniang suddenly felt funny, and it was also strange, this Kim Tae-hee was not afraid of the troubled wooden woman, but he was afraid of her Hu Sanniang, "Kim Tae-hee, if you have anything to say, this big night, if you don't do anything excessive, who wants to worry about you." ”

What a clever Hu Sanniang, Kim Tae-hee smiled embarrassedly, found a chair and sat next to him, "Your Highness, after the meeting ended today, Tang Yunzhou and the others have looked for the slave family." ”

"Huh? What do you want to do? Zhao Yougong's interest was aroused, and he asked with a smile crooked his neck. Kim Tae-hee pursed his lips and said with a slight smile, "They say that His Highness always looks down on our Goryeo soldiers, the king had 30,000 defenders before, and the Tianwang Village is even more impregnable, His Highness dares to fight, why is it that there are not too many soldiers and horses in the land of Sanfu now, and His Highness does not dare to fight." ”

Looking down on the Goryeo soldiers? Zhao Yougong's eyes narrowed, and after a while, he suddenly laughed, and even Sanniang's cold person laughed twice. Jin Taixi's heart was full of anger, these two people were too much, why did they laugh like this, Zhao Yougong didn't speak, Sanniang leaned forward slightly, and her voice was low, "Sister Jin, what they said is very right, they really don't have much confidence in the combat effectiveness of your Goryeo soldiers." Do you think that the same number of Jurchen elite and Goryeo soldiers is the same concept? If it is a fierce battle on the plains, 10,000 Jurchen iron horsemen can beat 40,000 Goryeo soldiers to the ground, do you believe it? ”

Sanniang's words were not polite at all, and she didn't save any face for Kim Tae-hee. In an instant, Kim Tae-hee's angry willow eyebrows were upside down, his chest rose and fell, he stood up suddenly, and looked at Zhao Yougong angrily, wanting His Royal Highness Zhao to say something fair. Zhao Yougong shrugged his shoulders and reached out to grab Kim Tae-hee, "What, are you still angry?" Sanniang's words are not good, but they are all facts, have you ever experienced war? Your so-called Great War of Goryeo is just a joke between Song Liaojin and Jin. Do you think you're great? That's because you haven't seen the vicious battle between the Great Liao and the Jin State back then, hundreds of thousands of troops fought viciously at every turn, and the battle of Nanjing City, more than 100,000 elites under Yeluchun were beaten by 30,000 Jurchen iron cavalry to find teeth, how do you compare yourself to Yeluchun back then? ”

No matter how proud Kim Tae-hee is, he will not feel that the Goryeo soldiers are more powerful than the elite of Daliao. When Jin Tae-hee became an adult, Yeluchun had been defeated for two years, but I had heard about Yeluchun's deeds, and Yeluchun was also a rare heroic figure when he was young. Legend has it that there was a flying cloud cavalry under Yelu Chun, which was invincible in the Liao Dynasty, and was defeated by the Jurchens in the end. Kim Tae-hee was told by Cho You-kung that she didn't have a temper at all, but she just didn't want to admit it, are the Goryeo soldiers so bad?

Looking at Kim Tae-hee's dissatisfied appearance, Zhao Yougong also felt funny, the Koreans really couldn't change their arrogance, and later generations of Koreans gave full play to this arrogance. Those people in Tang Yunzhou have opinions, and it's okay, when they see the power of the Jurchens in the future, they will know how stupid they are, and they really think that the Jurchens' combat effectiveness is the same as that of the Koreans. Zhao Yougong has fought with the Jurchen elite several times, especially in the battle of Yongding River, the two sides can be said to have suffered casualties among each other, and in the face of the Jurchen iron cavalry, if you dare to relax a little, there is a danger of annihilation.

Just after the child, Tang Miao hurriedly returned to Kaizhou City on horseback, entered the mansion to discuss, and Zhao Yougong made a decision. The next day, Ding **** began to feint to attack Zhendian in the west, making a posture of attacking Zhenhai Mansion, due to the prestige of Ding ****, the defenders of Zhenhai Mansion and Liaoyang Mansion did not dare to act rashly, so they could only refuse to hold the city, but Zhao Yougong wanted this result. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the main force of the **** turned to the east and took Huanzhou City in the west of Changbai Mountain. The favored soldiers and horses were ambushed in advance, taking advantage of the time when the Huanzhou defenders opened the stove, they suddenly launched a fierce attack, and the **** had an iron will, everyone moved forward bravely, and the Huanzhou defenders were caught off guard, and at the end of the day, the west gate of Huanzhou collapsed, and then the most fierce street battle was launched.

After fighting hard for a long time, Huanzhou finally took it down, Huanzhou fell, and the most scratching his head was Wanyan Zongbi of Liaoyang Mansion, the fourth prince of Jin felt that his head was a little big, and for a while he couldn't figure out what the Han people were going to do.
