Li Hu ordered to abandon Xingcheng Garden.
Hu Jiayong was a little confused and could not understand the intention above. Half an hour ago, Tian Fu, the seventh general of the Fifth Army of Hulie, arrived with reinforcements, and Xingchengyuan's defense was even stronger. Although the Battle of Sandaohe was over, the Jin army did not know that it was still attacking fiercely, trying to break through Xingchengyuan for rescue. If the defense was abandoned, tens of thousands of Jin troops rushed over, wouldn't the rebels and Liao army, who had just passed the battle, have to fight another bloody battle? Could it be that the main force retreated?
Hu Jiayong invited Zuo Zhuanrong and Yelu Dezhong to come over and convey Li Hu's orders.
"You are going to retreat?" Yelu Dezhong asked in surprise, "You have all retreated, what about us?" If the Han army retreated and the Liao army left alone to deal with the Jurchens, the consequences can be imagined.
"I didn't receive news of the main force's retreat." Hu Jiayong said in confusion, "I don't know what the general manager will do next."
"Where are we going?" Zuo Chuanrong asked.
"The general general told us to evacuate towards Naobao Mountain." Hu Jiayong drew a line on the map. Naobao Mountain is about ten miles east of Xingcheng Garden.
"The Chief General wants to ambush again?" Zuo Chuanrong was very surprised. "We retreated from Xingchengyuan to Naopu Mountain before turning around and recapturing Xingchengyuan, cutting off the retreat of the Jin army's vanguard."
"I also find it very strange." Hu Jiayong said, "Can the same strategy be used twice on the same battlefield? The Jurchens are not so stupid, right?"
At this time, Yelu Mage's order was also sent. He asked Yelu Dezhong to lead his army to evacuate Tuopan in the northwest of Xingchengyuan. Tuopan is behind Xuande City, only a few miles away from Xuande City. If the Jin army captured Xuande City, they could directly kill from Xuande City and Tuopan to Sandao River. This road was very close, but because the Jin army failed to conquer the city, they took Xiaotianping Mountain to Xingchengyuan, then from Xingchengyuan to Sanyiquan, and then to Sandao River, and took a big bend.
From the map, the Jin army is now distributed on Erlong Mountain, Xiaotianping Mountain and Xingchengyuan, with formations from north to south, while the Liao army is in the northwest of the God of Wealth, Xuande City and Tuopang. The rebels are in the Nanbao Mountain, Sanyiquan and Sandaohe lines in the southeast. As long as the Liao army and rebels grab Erlong Mountain, the Jin army will be surrounded.
Hu Jiayong used a cinnabar pen to mark the Tuopan and Naobaoshan on the map. So the situation on the battlefield was clear at a glance.
"The Chief General is going to surround the Jin army." Zuo Chuanrong said excitedly. "The Chief General is going to fight back. It's going to fight."
"Doggy's sucking on the ground. I'll see how you escape this time." Hu Jiayong threw the cinnabar pen to the ground and said gritting his teeth. "You kill my brothers. I'll crush you to ashes."
Yelu Dezhong frowned and looked worried. "From my opinion, it is very difficult to surround the Jin army." He pointed to Erlong Mountain on the map and said, "Look, in addition to Erlong Mountain, the Jin army also has Naobao Mountain."
"The Jin army attacked Xuande City. It could have attacked from the front of Erlong Mountain. The two sides attacked from Naobao Mountain and killed Sandao River. Then from Sandao River from Sandao River to Tuopang. The two sides attacked north and south. But because you stationed troops in Sanyiquan, the Jin army had to give up the strategy of attacking north and south. Now we are going to surround the Jin army. The Jin army is eager to jump over the wall. They will definitely break through from Erlong Mountain and Naobao Mountain at the same time. You retreat to Naobao Mountain. It is equivalent to blocking a retreat route for the Jin army. But what about Erlong Mountain? Who will take back Erlong Mountain?"
"The general will definitely send troops to capture Erlong Mountain." Zuo Chuanrong was very confident in Li Hu. "He asked us to evacuate Xingchengyuan. He probably wanted to lure the Jin army to the Sanyiquan area and drag them down so that other troops could win time to capture Erlong Mountain."
Yelu Dezhong disagreed. This place is full of mountains and the Jin army is not familiar with the terrain. For safety, the Jurchens must have scouted around the army to prevent accidents, especially Erlong Mountain and Xiaotianping Mountain. Because it is related to the retreat of the army, it must have been tightly defended. If the rebels want to take these two dangerous places, it may be difficult and difficult.
"Retreat." Hu Jiayong did not hesitate any longer and immediately ordered.
The sudden evacuation of the rebel army and the Liao army from Xingchengyuan was completely beyond the expectations of the Jin army. Wanyan Olu, Wanyan Loushi and Yelu Yuk were a little confused. They couldn't figure out where Li Hu was?
If Li Hu wanted to fight to the decisive battle and surround the Jin army, then he would have to defend Xingchengyuan to the death and send troops to attack Erlong Mountain to cut off the Jin army's retreat. In fact, Li Hu did this, but the scene in front of them made them doubt their judgment and suspected that they had estimated Li Hu's ability to be too high.
This retreat means that Li Hu is about to run away. He ambushed the Jin army's front-superior army. After winning a complete victory, he had no intention of fighting and was about to run away. From this, it is inferred that the Han army that was rushing to Erlong Mountain was very likely to be a suspicious plan, deliberately causing the Jin army to make a wrong judgment, and then hesitate, swaying between the rescue of the front-superior army and defending Erlong Mountain, thus giving Li Hu time to completely annihilate the front-super-super-super-super-super-super-super-super-super-super-super-super-super-super-super-super-super-super-super-super-super-super-super-super-super-super-super-super-super-
Wanyan Olu felt that he had been fooled. In Wanyan Loushi and Yelu Yu's eyes, Li Hu might be a myth. The two were very careful, but they did not dare to attack Xingchengyuan with all their might, and they lost the opportunity to severely damage the Han army.
Wanyan Loushi and Yelu Yuji were also shaken. Li Hu's purpose might be to block the Jin army. He might not have gone crazy enough to fight the Jin army, because no matter what, Li Hu did not have an absolute advantage in military strength on the battlefield, and he did not have the conditions to launch a decisive battle. He could not be inferred that he would have to fight the decisive battle because of Li Hu's crazyness.
"The wolf smoke in the direction of Sandaohe is still drifting, and the battle is not over yet. As long as we are fast enough and fight very firmly, we may still save some of our troops." Wanyan Olu suggested that we immediately cross Xingchengyuan and kill Sanyiquan and Sandaohe line to rescue the selection army.
Wanyan Loushi didn't say anything. He felt it was necessary to launch an attack to determine Li Hudi's true intention.
Yelu Yuji hesitated. After the scout discovered that the Han army was moving towards Erlongshan area, Wanyan Wulu canceled the order to call Yelu Nuge. If he continued to fight forward, his army would be at the forefront. If he fell into a trap again, the losses would be heavy. He currently needs strength, not only to maintain his survival, to ensure his current status and power, but also to the future. Yelu Chun became emperor in Yanjing. If he could turn the tide and take on the important task of reviving the Khitan, he would just wait for the right time to return to the palace tent and fight for the revival of the Great Liao.
Wanyan Olu urged him again.
"Are we more cautious?" Yelu Yujiu said, "First send a group of troops to advance quickly to see if the Han army has really retreated."
"Li Hu just ate 30,000 people in one breath. No matter whether he finished eating or not, he was panting and exhausted. If he wanted to attack him at this time, of course he had to concentrate his strength and give him a heavy blow." Wanyan Olu was very dissatisfied with Yelu Yuji's attitude, but for Gu Quanzi, he still suppressed his anger and tried to speak in a negotiated tone.
"I attacked Xingchengyuan continuously, and the soldiers were exhausted. If they all rushed over and were surrounded and killed by the Han army, the army would be defeated." Yelu Yuji made up his mind to ignore him, "You must know that my all-superior army was wiped out, and the blow to morale was very heavy. If you are not careful, you will suffer a disaster of collapse."
"My army is right behind, keeping a distance between front and back troops and supporting each other, and will not collapse even if we encounter the Han army." Wanyan Olu's tone became a little stern.
"What should the Han army attack Erlong Mountain at this time?" Yelu Yu pointed to the direction of Erlong Mountain and said excitedly, "If Li Hu wanted to surround us, the army he used to attack Erlong Mountain must be large in number, and he strives to hit the target with one blow. Do you want to return to the rescue? If you return to the rescue, turn around and leave. What should I use to ensure the safety of the front army?"
The two of them held their own opinions and did not give in to each other. Wanyan Loushi hurriedly stopped them, and he pulled Wanyan Olu aside, "Our army suffered a severe blow, and the morale of the army was shaken. It is better to take risks again. Be more steadily and send a infantry cavalry forward to explore the way." Then he sighed, "Even if Li Hu retreated, we cannot chase them. We can only concentrate our troops to take down Xuande City first, and then see how the governor deployed it. If Wanyan Yu and Zong Wang both arrived at the Yinmahe battlefield and attracted Li Hu's troops to both sides of the Yinmahe River, it would not be too late for us to attack south."
Wanyan Olu reluctantly accepted it. The battle lost 30,000 people and lost it. His face was unbearable, which was ugly.
Monk Yelu Chou and Gao Foliu took five thousand squads and cavalry and quickly crossed Xingcheng Garden and killed Sanyiquan directly.
The fourth general of Hu Lie, Dafeng Nu, led a team of horse soldiers to slightly block Sanyiquan, and then retreated.
The ugly monk and Gao Foliu urgently told Yelu Yuji. Yuji ordered a pursuit, and he followed with 20,000 troops. Wanyan Olu and Wanyan Loushi were also ready to set off, but Wanyan Pucha, stationed in Erlong Mountain, suddenly reported that the Han army attacked Xiaotianping Mountain, and Yelu Nuge's subordinates escaped in the battle, resulting in the loss of Xiaotianping Mountain, and the Erlong Mountain defense line fell into trouble. Wanyan Olu was shocked and hurriedly asked Wanyan Loushi to go to Erlong Mountain to support him. Most of the defensive forces in Erlong Mountain were Yelu Nuge's army, with only a few hundred Jurchen cavalry. If these vulnerable troops escaped again, Erlong Mountain would be lost and the Jin army would be surrounded.
The Jin army rushed to the Sandaohe battlefield. The dead bodies everywhere made the Jin army shudder and panic. At this moment, the horns and drums sounded, and teams of horse soldiers came out of the woods near the lake.
The Jin army was so heartbroken that they turned around and ran away.
At this moment, Yelu Yu saw that he had just arrived at Sanyiquan and heard the deafening sound of killing several miles away. He was suddenly panicked and retreated quickly. Suddenly, the war drums were like thunder in the mountains and forests on both sides of the road, and the sound of trumpets came one after another, and colorful flags were everywhere in the mountains and fields. Teams of rebel soldiers whistled out like a tide.
The Jin army was both dead and gall, and the wolf was running wildly. Yelu Yuji even ran away in a hurry, and even the dogs ran away in panic.
The ugly monk and Gao Foliu led a group of entourages to break through the siege and fought to the death. They finally broke through the siege, but all five thousand infantry and cavalry were surrounded, and there were very few survivors.
