Xia Renzong is most worried that the Dingbei army will not die, the Western Xia army has disappeared, after Cao Zimu led the Dingyan army to the west, the Western Xia army in Xingzhou suffered huge losses in the war, and now 30,000 people are defending the city, how to arrange, it is a bit difficult in terms of numbers. Fortunately, seeing that the weather is getting colder, Brother Richard estimates that he will be able to use the ice and snow to seal the city in less than half a month, and then Zhao Kai will really have no heart to attack.

When Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty learned of the battle situation on the front line in Hangzhou, he specially set up an altar to worship his ancestors and pray for the blessings of his ancestors; however, although the war in Henan was rotten, the Dingbei Army in the northwest still held the pressure on the Western Xia, which was a great boost for the Song court in the wind and rain. However, when Song Huizong sent people to Chang'an again to ask for help, he learned that Fan Zhixu was already ill, and Yang Zhi was in charge of the war in the river, so he had no ability to go to Bianliang at all.

Fan Zhixu was a little disappointed, and went to Tongguan to meet Yang Zhi with illness, after several years of war, Fan Zhixu has understood that it is easy to get a thousand troops and difficult to find, compared to Bianliang's side, Yang Zhi is better than Zhang Jun and others who have no spiritual energy, even if Yang Zhi is willing to go alone, in Fan Zhixu's heart, Bianliang's situation will be a little better. Zhao Kai sent an order from Lingzhou, ordering Yang Zhi to stabilize Guanzhong as the first need, Zhao Kai still has some responsibility in this regard, and will not make Yang Zhi embarrassed in this regard, Zhao Kai knows very well that only Yang Zhi stabilizes the rear, can he continue to hold on in Lingzhou.

Fan Zhixu understood the disappointment of the Dingbei army with Zhao Gou's army, and saw that Yang Zhi refused to take the risk, so he could only reply truthfully to Hangzhou. Zhao Kai felt that Yang Zhi should be asked to reduce his worries, and create opportunities for other subordinates to balance with Yang Zhi and the others. Zhao Kai set up five armies and appointed Zhang Suo, Wang Ping, Min, Zhang Shen, and Sun Ang as the commanders of the five armies.

When Yang Zhi heard this, he understood what Zhao Kai meant, this time he raised the level of the Five Protectors, just to distinguish his own troops, and Zhao Kai's plan to check and balance himself has not decreased, but it is just a different way. Zhao Kai's other action was to send Cao Qianli to Chang'an, in the name of assisting Zhao Duofu in dealing with the workshop matters, Yang Zhi knew that Zhao Kai's purpose was to have a conflict between Cao Qianli and himself, so as not to collude with the two.

Yang Zhi believed that the Cao family brothers were no less wise than themselves, and the two of them could also see this, except for a few henchmen, the rest of the people Yang Zhi didn't even say hello. Anyway, Zhao Duofu had already tried all the ways, and when Lu Tianshan couldn't stand it, he could still push everything to Qinzhou, after all, the Shaanxi transfer envoy was Liang Xun.

Li Gang now has the same worries in Huaixi as Yang Zhi, worried that after the collapse of the Western Army, he will lose his troops in vain, and Huaixi will be unable to defend at that time. Therefore, in the face of Ma Shen's excitement, Li Gang calmed down and proposed a plan to let Yang Zhi be in charge of the war east of Luoyang, and the armies of Huaixi, Luoyang, and Yingchangfu were all under Yang Zhi's command. This is the bottom line of Li Gang's discussion with Chen Gui and others, but in the eyes of Zhao Gou and Zhai Xing, Li Gang is deliberately making things difficult.

Li Gang said it well, but in fact, it was clear that he wanted Zhao Gou to return to Hangzhou, so both Zhao Gou and Zhai Xing directly rejected this suggestion. Li Gang then stopped being verbose, and asked the Huaixi states to seize the time to prepare for war, prepare to clear the wilderness, and let the Jin army lose the advantage of cavalry. Li Gang and Liu Zhengyan both knew that before Bianliang fell, only a part of the cavalry of the Jin army would use their speed to kill Huaixi, as long as they didn't give a chance to take advantage of it, they could make the other party have no gain.

Regarding the situation on the Chang'an side, Li Gang saw very clearly, Yang Zhi would not have no ability at all, there were still tens of thousands of troops in the Tuntian camp in Shaanxi, although the combat effectiveness was a little weaker, but it was stronger than the people in the hands of Zhai Xing and Wang Yan, even if he was unable to solve the siege of Bianliang, it was absolutely no problem to open up the road from Huaixi to Chang'an with his own pinch. However, without Zhao Kai's order, Yang Zhi would never have transferred all the troops from Shaanxi; just relying on the men and horses on the current Yongxing Military Road, Yang Zhi would have almost no possibility of dispatching.

Li Gang sent a letter to Song Huizong, explaining the current situation in Huaixi and why he refused to reinforce Bianliang, Li Gang suggested that Song Huizong still contact Zhao Kai in accordance with the procedure, and only if Zhao Kai made up his mind, Yang Zhi could take action. Under the urging of Hangzhou again and again, Zhao Kai had to throw the pot to Yang Zhi, asking Yang Zhi to decide the front-line war on his own, including reinforcements to Luoyang. Yang Zhi naturally did not rush to dispatch, but with an order, he could mobilize troops and grain and grass equipment.

Fortunately, Yang Zhiliu Liu Qi, Wang Bian, and Zhu Wu stayed in Shaanxi to guard the various roads, so that Yang Yizhong led the army to Qinzhou, and took the Qijing original road and Qinfeng Road to aid Tongguan, Liang Xing finished resting, and replenished 10,000 people from the Tuntian camp. Wang Shan's cavalry was the first to be dispatched, but was limited by Yang Zhi to within fifty miles east of Tongguan, mainly to meet the refugees and rout troops who had fled to Guanzhong. Yang Zhi knows the virtue of those Western troops, as long as they get rid of the rout, they will be robbers, and there will be many incidents if no one is pressed.

At the same time that Zhai Xing went all out and fought fiercely with the signing army in Yanshi, Li Gang also began to try to advance eastward, but after several battles, Zhai Xing was always subject to the gap in strength, and finally lost the first line of Yanshi and retreated to Luoyang. Although Wang Yan attacked Mengzhou twice, he had to withdraw his troops, after all, far away from Taihang Mountain, the defects of the Bazi Army were undoubtedly exposed, as long as the Jin cavalry arrived, they had to retreat, so as not to be bitten by the opponent. In the end, Wang Yan could only listen to Yang Zhi's advice and gradually retreat to Taihang Mountain to preserve his strength, so as not to become the prey of the Jin army in winter.

Shuozhou and Xingzhou both began to water the city, using the thickness of the ice city to block the opponent's attack, whether it was Quduan or Jin Wushu, there were no good siege methods, so that the war was helpless to stop. Yang Zhi also sent someone to Luoyang to tell Zhai Xing about this method, but Zhai Xing refused to do so, and only asked Yang Zhi to send troops, and Yang Zhi could only send letters to Zhao Gou and Hangzhou, but Zhao Gou also refused to do so. Ice and snow sealed the city, even if he couldn't get out, Zhao Gou didn't want Zhai Xing and Luoyang's army to enter a desperate situation.

Yang Zhi will not take risks, the opportunity is lost like this, and by the time Yang Yizhong's 30,000 troops arrived at Tongguan, Luoyang had already been lost. Knowing that there were less than 100,000 signed troops attacking separately in Luoyang and other places, Yang Zhi decided to use the cavalry to break through, although Luoyang did not recover all at once, but still eliminated more than 50,000 signing troops, and Wanyan Zongwang had to send 20,000 cavalry to reinforce.

Yang Zhi's Qu Duan, Liu Qi and others were not there, but Xu Wen, Liang Xing, Yang Zhongwu and others shined and defeated Wanyan Zongwang's 20,000-strong army by encirclement and suppression. Xu Wen slaughtered all the way, capturing Luoyang like a sealed film, 6,000 of the signed army were killed, and 17,000 surrendered.
