In the early morning of the 16th, Li Hu ordered the Tigers and the Liberated Army, the Bohai Army, the Shenlong Army and the Thunder Army to head north, and the army stationed on the Jiulong Bay upper reaches of the Yinma River.

Kowloon Bay is one hundred miles away from Texas and one hundred miles away from Baishuilu. The three places just formed a cone battlefield.

On the same day, Xiao Seng Xiaonu, the prime minister of the Northern Prefecture of the Great Liao Dynasty, quickly returned to the palace tent to report to the emperor, and made an appointment to send troops to attack the Jurchens.

Yelu Mage rushed to Dezhou, and he urgently wrote to the commander of the southwest road Yelu Foding, the governor of the collapsed ridge Yelu Deguang and other army commanders, and detailed the situation of the war in the north and asked them to report together with him. The morale of the army is now sluggish, and the soldiers are not interested in fighting. The reason is that it is the death of King Jin and the treacherous ministers who have caused trouble to the country. The ministers demanded that the ruler be cleared immediately and Xiao Fengxian be killed, otherwise a mutiny would be set off, which would directly lead to the defeat of the entire army and the collapse of the country.

Yelu Ma Ge was furious and threatened the emperor with the collapse of the country. If you don’t kill Xiao Fengxian and drive a group of treacherous slanders out of the palace tent, I will launch a mutiny.

Xiao Delidi stayed in Datong, as the special envoy of Yunzhong and Yanjing, maintained close contact with the Han Army General General Office and kept informed of the latest situation at any time in order to formulate countermeasures with the Han Army General Office.

Li Chuwen quickly returned to Yanjing. Yelu Dashi rushed to Juyongguan and led a 10,000 horse army to head north quickly to meet Han in Yinmahe River.

On the morning of the 16th, the commanders of each army arrived at the commander-in-chief's mansion.

Li Hu personally deployed an attack strategy.

On the map, the location of Jinhe Mountain is noticed by the target.

Jinhe Mountain is located at the southern foot of Yin Mountain (now Zhuozi Mountain). The height gradually decreases from northwest to southeast. Dezhou is located at the southeast foot of Jinhe Mountain and adjacent to the Daihai.

"According to the scouts, the Jin army stopped immediately after arriving in Baishuilu." Li Hu said, "It is obvious that the Jin army is considering the direction of the attack."

From Baishuili to the west, there is Jinhe Mountain. There is no road, so the road is divided into two in Baishuili. Go north from Baishuili. Then go west along the Jinhe River, you can enter the clouds and reach the Hetao area. From Baishuili to the south, you are in Xijing Datong Prefecture.

"Yelu Mage retreated from Baishuilu to Dezhou, because he had too many tribes, camels, horses, cattle and sheep. It was too late to retreat to Yunzhong, so he simply retreated to Dezhou. If it really didn't work, he would flee to the mountain. In short, he would not let the Jurchens grab livestock. Second, he was to judge the direction of the attack of the Jin army. If the Jin army went south to attack Datong, the main force of the Liao army in Yunzhong could take the opportunity to launch an attack. On the contrary, Yelu Mage would ask us for help."

Then, Li Hu talked about the fact that the Emperor of Liao took the initiative to send envoys to form an alliance.

"A few years ago, I told you when I was in Longhua that if we want to survive and develop, we must first join forces with Jin to attack Liao, and at the appropriate time, we must join forces with Liao to stop Jin, but the situation is developing too fast. The Jurchens have occupied the three capitals, and their strength has suddenly expanded, not only far surpassing the Khitans, but also surpassing us. Therefore, our current strategy can only be to join forces with Liao to attack Jin, and first drive the Jurchens out of Daibei and firmly defend Xijing."

"But..." Li Hu's eyes swept across everyone's faces, "The Khitans were defeated too quickly and too fast, which was simply incredible, and now they are even more involved in division. In this case, the alliance with Liao to attack Jin will not achieve the predetermined goal at all, it is just the wishful thinking of some people."

"At present, the Song army is about to enter the north, and Youyan will soon become a great Song people. Once the Song people recover Youyan, they will soon enter Daibei."

"The position of Daibei is very important to all parties. If the Liao people defended it, they could maintain a three-point pattern; if the Jurchens occupied it, they could gain an attack advantage against Yan Yun, and then they could go south to the Central Plains; if the Dangxiang people got Daibei, they would then form a clamp-shaped offensive against the Song Dynasty from both east and west; the Song people's goal was to the Jiuzhou behind the mountain, which could curb the northern enemy's going south."

"All four opponents have come, can we still defend Datong? If we can't defend Datong, where will we go?"

The generals here looked solemn, the situation was developing too fast, dazzling and at a loss, and Li Hu’s meaning was very obvious. When the rebel army had no way to go, they had to take Jiuzhou behind the mountain to join the Song Dynasty. This was the only way to survive.

However, the rebel army has experienced storms and has repeatedly survived in recent years. This crisis situation is not the first time that everyone has encountered. Although everyone is nervous, it is far from desperate. With Li Hu and his past victory and achievements, everyone has great confidence in sticking to Datong and still believes that they can survive this crisis without any danger.

"This battle..." Li Hu's hand drew a big circle between Dezhou and Baishuilu on the map. "Our goal is not to win. To be honest, with the current situation of the Liao army, it is impossible to win. Our goal is to force the Jin army to give up going south to attack Datong and instead concentrate on its efforts to deal with the Khitans. The Khitans fled in all directions, and the Jin army must divide their troops. On the one hand, they want to chase the Liao army and capture prefectures and counties. At this time, we will join forces with the Dangxiang people to take the opportunity to win several victories on both sides of the Yellow River, forcing the Jurchens to withdraw from Daibei."

The Dangxiang people, who joined forces with Xia to attack Jin? The Dangxiang people were very unfamiliar to the rebel generals. When they suddenly heard that Li Hu wanted to join forces with Xia to attack Jin, they immediately became interested and asked.

Li Hu introduced the situation of Daxia, as well as the wars between Song and Xia in recent years, and the purpose of the Daxia people sending troops to serve in the north under the current situation.

"The people of Daxia lacked enough understanding of the Jurchens, but after this battle, the people of Daxia knew that the Jurchens' targets to Daibei were not only the Khitans and our Han people, but also the Dangxiang people. Everyone understood this principle. Once the emperor of the Daxia Kingdom felt the threat of the Jurchens, he would immediately stop attacking Yunshuo. He would take the initiative to form an alliance with us and fight against the Jurchens. When the Khitans were defeated by the Jin army, who else could the Dangxiang people form an alliance with us? All the generals understood that although this battle was amazing, Li Hu's real purpose was to defend and defend Datong with the help of the Khitans.

From the Jurchen perspective, if they can conquer Xijing at the fastest speed, they can immediately control the two battlefields of Daibei and Youyan. So if nothing unexpected happens, the Jurchens will definitely attack Xijing. The Jurchens are strong. If they attack Xijing fiercely, the rebels will suffer heavy losses. Even if they repel the Jurchens in the end, they will not be able to stop the joint attack between the Khitans and the Dangxiang people.

Li Hu ordered.

Dong Xiaochou led the resentful army to station in Sanyiquan. Mao's army led the first Hu Lie, the fourth and fifth army stationed in Jiulongwan, Tieying led the second Hu Lie, the third and sixth army stationed in Baibao. Li Jin led the Thunder Army and the Shenlong Army stationed in Heitutai.

Gao Baolong led the Bohai Army to move north from the Khahukou to the Jubao Village and meet with the main force.

Luo Qinghan led the Heishan army to guard Datong Prefecture. The truth is told.

"I need one person to go to Daxia now," said Li Hu. "I must immediately stop the Dangxiang people from attacking Shuozhou, and letting the Dangxiang people know that I have defected to Dasong is the best way to stop them from launching an attack. Therefore, I need one of you two to arrive in Ningbianzhou immediately."

Although Li Gang and Yuwen Xuzhong expected that the Jurchens would come, the Jurchens came too fast and too fiercely, and the division of the Daliao exacerbated the crisis on the battlefield of Daibei. Therefore, if you want to defend Datong at this moment, you must indeed prevent the Daxia people from attacking Shuozhou.

"The alliance between Song and Xia is very fragile." Yuwen Xuzhong said, "Now the main force of the Song army is in Hebei, and your main force blocks the Jin army north of Datong. Shuozhou is empty. For the Xixia people, this is their best opportunity to attack Shuozhou. If Shuozhou is lost, the Xia army can immediately deter Taiyuan and attack Linzhou, Fuzhou and Baode army from both sides. Therefore, I think under the current situation, it is too difficult to stop the Dangxiang people from attacking Shuozhou."

"If the Dangxiang people knew that Zhongjing was lost and Yelu Chun proclaimed himself emperor in Yanjing to split the Great Liao, and the Khitans had completely defeated, would they still insist on attacking Shuozhou?" Li Hu asked, "If they knew that Wanyan Gao led more than 200,000 troops into Daibei, Daxia was about to face a major crisis, would they still stick to the established strategy?"

Yuwen Xuzhong didn't speak.

Li Gang pondered for a moment and frowned and said, "But if the Dangxiang people told the Emperor of Daliao that the Emperor of Daliao would go to the desert and you would face the attack of the Jurchens directly, then the situation in Datong would be even more critical."

Li Hu thought for a moment and said, "The Dangxiang people must know the consequences of revealing this news. If the Emperor of the Great Liao went far away to the desert, Dai Bei would be thrown to the Jurchens. Just imagine that the people of Xixia were not worried that the Jin army would continue to advance westward and attack them? On the contrary, hiding this news can keep the Emperor of the Great Liao in the clouds. The three families can form a tacit understanding and attack the Jurchens together, and drive this strongest opponent out of Dai Bei first."

Li Hu looked at the two of them and said with a smile: "Who would like to go there?"

"I'll go." Li Gang pointed to Yuwen Xuzhong and said, "He wants to stay. The Song army may make the Northern Expedition at any time. The Prime Minister and the Prosecution and Fufu Department of the Two Rivers must keep in touch. In addition..." He hesitated for a moment and whispered, "Do you send someone to Bianjing to explain the situation of Daibei to the officials, first to express your loyalty to the Song Dynasty, and second to make the officials pay attention to the Daibei battlefield, so that you can get assistance from money, food and weapons."

Li Hu looked at Yuwen Xuzhong, "If I send someone to Bianjing, are you sure to get assistance?"

"The Western Xia army entered the battlefield of Daibei, and the Jurchens came again with great momentum. The Jiuzhou behind the mountain is already in danger. Unless the official family gave up the Jiuzhou behind the mountain, he will definitely give you assistance. Of course, the premise is that you must show the loyalty of the Song Dynasty in the memorial. For example, after the war is over, you will officially return to the Song Dynasty, open the title of the King of Han, and open the prefecture in Datong. For example, if you ask the official family to appoint some officials from the royal family and Yunzhong Road."
