On the fifteenth, the Tiger and Lieutenant Army launched an attack on Zhending City.

It has been more than twenty days since the Tiger Lie Army fought to the Zhending City. The Jin army in the city has been fully prepared. On the other hand, the Tiger Lie Army continued to increase its troops and only now has an absolute advantage in military strength. Although the attack was huge, the formation was messy and the attack was not determined. It was obviously not ready to attack the city, and it was too hasty and almost did not pose any threat to the Jin army.

At dusk, the Tiger Lie Army stopped attacking. The head coach of the Jin army, Wanyan Wuta, stood on the city tower, looking at the dense Hu Lie Army camps in the distance, and the ominous premonition in his heart became stronger and stronger.

The Zhending battlefield should be a restraining battlefield. The main battlefield of this battle should be on the front line of Handan and Anyang. However, since the Hu Lie Army increased its troops ten days ago to the present, the Hu Lie Army's troops on the Zhending battlefield have increased sharply in just ten days. This can confirm that Wanyan Gao and Wanyan Zongfu's guess on the development of the Hebei battle situation is correct. The Hu Lie Army is very thoughtful, and its real goal is Zhending, which is the entire Hebei. However, half a month has passed, and Wanyan Gao and Wanyan Zongfu have not made any strategic adjustments when they already know that the Hu Lie Army is going to attack Zhending with heavy troops. This is simply incredible. Wanyan Wuta lacks confidence in the entire battle situation, especially the Youyan reinforcements are unlucky.

How long can Zhending last? Wanyan Wuta turned around and looked at the soldiers around him, and he had no idea at all. What did Wanyan Gao and Wanyan Zongfu think? Is this strategy too naive to hold back the main force of the Tiger Lie Army on the Zhending battlefield? Is there such a risk? If Zong Wang is still alive, would he fight such an incredible battle like Wanyan Gao and Wanyan Zongfu?

"Master, will the Tiger and Blade Army attack tonight?" a general suddenly asked.

Wanyan Wuta didn't say anything. One goal of the Tiger Lieutenant Army was Zhending, and the second goal was to block the main force of the Jin army on the Hutuo River line and strive for front and back attacks. In other words, the purpose of the Tiger Lieutenant Army attacking Handan and Anyang line was to hold back the main force of the Jin army and gain enough time for the Tiger Lieutenant Army to complete the attack target. Now the battle situation has become clear. The main force of the Jin army either retreats across the board or sticks to Zhending, Handan, and confronts the Tiger Lieutenant Army for a long time. Wanyan Gao and Wanyan Zongfu obviously chose the latter. They will never bow to the Tiger Lieutenant Army, let alone give up Hebei.

Wanyan Gao and Wanyan Zongfu's ideas were beyond reproach. Ask yourself, if Wanyan Wuta was in their position, Wanyan Wuta would have to defend Hebei and never give in. However, the strength of the Tiger and Lieutenant Army is different now. Can the Jin army realize its strategic intentions on the Hebei battlefield?

"There is one thing that is certain." Wanyan Wuta turned around to face the generals and said solemnly, "The goal of the Hu Lie Army is the entire Hebei. For this reason, they must first obtain Zhending City and cut off the connection between Youyan and Hebei in half, thus forcing our main army to withdraw from the front line of Handan and Daming Mansion. So..." Wanyan Wuta turned his head and looked at the Hu Lie Camp that was gradually obscuring the twilight, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes. "At present, for the Hu Lie Army, whether it can quickly conquer Zhending City is directly related to the development of the entire battle situation, so their time is very limited. If I were the head coach of the Hu Lie Army, I would use my strength to attack day and night, and never give the opponent any chance to breathe."

A group of Jin army generals were secretly shocked. Thinking of the achievements of Li Hu and Hu Lie Army in recent years, they were very uneasy.

"These days are very important. The Hu Lie Army is full of morale and the possibility of attacking day and night is very high." Wanyan Wuta raised his tone. "Each army must make proper arrangements and ensure that the soldiers can enter the battle and fight back the enemy at any time."

Midnight, the lights suddenly turned on in the camp of the Tiger Lieutenant Army. People shouted and neighed, and teams of soldiers rushed out of the camp and attacked the city again.

The torches outside the city were like clouds, bright as daylight, and the sound of killing was like thunder, passing through the dark night sky, exploding over Zhending City.

The Jin army calmly responded to the battle. The Tiger Lie Army was as powerful as a rainbow. With the help of the night, its huge army used torches and drums to create an amazing attack. The Jin army was shocked by the Tiger Lie Army's momentum, and the soldiers were very nervous.

In the early morning, the Tiger and Lieutenant Army began to attack with arrow formations, occasionally firing artillery rockets. The deafening explosions came one after another, and the burning houses increased the power of the arrow formation, making the Jin army panic.

Just when the Jin army thought that the siege was like a fierce storm after the arrow formation, the Tiger and Lieutenant Army struck the golden horn and retreated.

Early in the morning of the 16th, the exhausted Jin army had just closed their eyes when the war drums of the Tiger Lieutenant Army sounded, and the siege battle began quickly.

Today's attack was much more fierce than yesterday. Although the heavy siege equipment of the Tiger Lie Army was seriously insufficient, more than 100,000 troops attacked from all directions at the same time, which still made the Jin army in the city busy and overwhelmed. All the Jin soldiers went into battle, fighting from morning to dusk, and they didn't even have time to take a breath.

At dusk, the Jin army was exhausted and they were barely supporting each one, hoping that the Tiger Lie Army would retreat to rest after dark. However, the Tiger Lie Army had no intention of truce. They lit a pile of bonfires under the city and wanted to attack continuously.

Wanyan Wuta knew that the Tiger Lieutenant Army was using its military advantages to drag down the Jin army, but the Tiger Lieutenant Army could not continue to fight like this. Now they are full of morale and have sufficient physical strength, and can still support it, but after a few days of fighting, the Tiger Lieutenant Army's physical strength will be exhausted, and this method will not work.

Wanyan Wuta urgently summoned his subordinates and asked them to grit their teeth, go to the front line in person, and share life and death with the soldiers. "The Hu Lie Army will not last for a few days. As long as we hold on to these two days, the morale and physical strength of the Hu Lie Army will definitely decline, and then the situation will be beneficial to us."

"Terminal, when will Youyan's reinforcements arrive?" Some generals were frightened by the momentum of the Tiger Lieutenant Army and had no confidence.

"The reinforcements must have arrived." Wanyan Wuta cheered up his subordinates, "Youyan has more than 100,000 troops, and at least half of the troops can be transferred south to support. The reason why they have not arrived at Zhending City for a long time is because of the war situation."

Wanyan Wuta did not hide it anymore, and roughly explained the offensive and defensive strategies of Wanyan Gao and Wanyan Zongfu against the entire Hebei battle situation. "The focus of this battle is to use the two battlefields of Zhending and Handan to drag down the Tiger Lie Army, use delaying strategies to consume the opponent, and force the opponent to retreat. The right deputy commander personally defended Handan, while we stood firm in Zhending Mansion. Youyan reinforcements helped each other at the same time and delayed the war. Just when the time is right, Youyan reinforcements will definitely break through the blockade of the Tiger Lie Army and come to meet our army."

Wanyan Wuta's explanation stabilized the morale of the army to a certain extent, and the confidence of the generals recovered. They rushed back to their respective war zones and urged the soldiers to persevere to the end. We were exhausted. The Tiger and Lieutenant Army could not get better. Now the competition is Yizhi. Whoever can persevere to the end will be the winner.

That night, Yue Fei summoned the commanders of each army to deploy strategies for siege.

"The attacks for two days and one night have basically achieved the goal of exhausting Jin army." Yue Fei said, "We will continue to attack in the first half of the night tonight and will never give the Jin army a rest. In the early morning, Dugu Shuai and Han Shuai led their troops to attack the water gate, while the rest of the troops launched the most fierce attacks in order to hold the Jin army firmly and create opportunities for us to conquer the water gate."

Speaking of this, Yue Fei looked up at Dugu Feng and Han Shizhong, "Are you all ready?"

"Everything is ready, just wait for the attack order." Han Shizhong said excitedly, "Ensure that everything is foolproof."

Yue Fei nodded and turned to look at Sun Ge, "Is the ship ready?"

"We have found all the places we can find, but the number is still not enough." Sun Ge pointed at Hong Yun and said, "Hong Shuai helped a lot. He ordered the grain shooting army to build ten giant sheepskin rafts in one day, which can transport 1,000 soldiers into the city at one time. This basically guarantees that we will send about 2,000 soldiers into Zhending City within a time period."

Yue Fei frowned slightly and asked, "How long does it take to travel back and forth between the boat and the sheepskin raft?"

"It won't take more than two minutes."

"This time is too long." Yue Fei said immediately, "I try my best to shorten the time for transporting troops."

"I'll discuss it with Hong Shuai immediately." Sun Ge said hurriedly.

"At the beginning of the attack, our army had not yet established a foothold, and the Jin army would counterattack wildly. The amount of troops is crucial at this moment." Yue Fei instructed, "No matter what method you use, the time for transporting troops must be shortened within a moment."

Sun Ge looked embarrassed and his eyes couldn't help but look at Hong Yun. Hong Yun thought for a moment and nodded slightly at him, "There should be a way."

"How is the situation on the Shahe line?" Zhang Gao'er suddenly asked.

"It's strange that the Jurchen reinforcements fought for only one day on the 12th, and then stopped." Yue Fei shook his head in confusion. "We attacked for several days in a row, but the other party actually stopped moving. What does it mean? Although confrontation across the river can also restrain our army's strength, the effect of fighting and not fighting is completely different. The other party should be very clear about this."

"What's the direction of Handan?"

"Our scouts have been closely monitoring the movements on both sides of the Zhang River, but so far, no Jin army has been found crossing the river, which is enough to show that the Jin army is still standing on the front line between Handan and Anyang." Yue Fei couldn't help but shook his head, "Wanyan Gao and Wanyan Zongfu are too confident. The battle situation in Hebei is clear now, and our army's attack intention is very clear. The Jurchens actually dare to defend Handan, which shows that they didn't take us seriously at all." Yue Fei sneered, "When we take the Zhending, they will die."

Zhang Gao'er slowly narrowed her eyes, and two murderous auras gushed out, "Before dawn, take down Zhending City at all costs."

At the beginning of the Xu hour of the 16th day, the Tiger and Lieutenant Army launched another attack.

At the same time, Dugu Feng and Han Shizhong, led the assault soldiers and approached the sluice under the cover of night. Hong Yun and Wu Jie followed up slowly with their follow-up troops.

At this time, Wanyan Gao, who was far away in Daming Prefecture, was anxious and once again supervised Zong Fu to withdraw his troops as soon as possible.

In the past few days, Wanyan Gao kept persuading, but Zong Fu was very stubborn and insisted on using the established strategy to defend Hebei. Wanyan Gao was very decisive this time and had no room for negotiation. He originally planned to meet Li Hu, but because of this incident, he had a headache and the meeting between the two parties had to be postponed.

However, after Wanyan Jiemu, who went south to support, was blocked by Shahe, he had no determination to attack, and it would be difficult to give Wanyan Wuta strong support in the short term. Then, after the Hedong Tiger Lie Army arrived in Zhending City, Wanyan Jiemu directly supervised the main army to retreat north in a letter.

Wanyan Jiemu's intention was obvious at a glance, and it was obviously a bit threatening. Wanyan Gao had to start from the overall situation and ordered Zong Fu to immediately give up Handan and Anyang and lead his army to retreat north. If an accident occurred on the Zhending battlefield at this moment, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Tell Zongfu that if he is unwilling to accept this order, I will personally rush to Handan to lead the army to retreat." Wanyan Gao said to Yang Pu angrily, "We can't waste our time any more, we must retreat immediately."

"I think the right deputy coach will not refuse this time." Yang Pu advised, "The current situation on the battlefield is critical. The marshal should go north overnight to Zhongshan to command in person, so as not to have an accident and cause the situation to deteriorate suddenly."
