On the 17th, Wanyan Jiemu and Han Qinghe received a scout news. Zhending City was in trouble.

The two were shocked immediately and shocked. The strength of the Tiger and Lieutenant Army reached a terrifying level. The Jin army's defense strategy was completely failed. The Jin army in Hebei was in danger, and Hebei was about to fall.

Wanyan Jiemu immediately reported to Huanglong Mansion and urgently reported to Youyan Wanyan Xiyin, asking him to consider reinforcement of Hebei. In fact, the possibility of Youyan's army going south to reinforce is very small. Youyan only has more than 100,000 troops, the main force must guard Yanjing and block the Tiger Lie Army in the direction of Juyongguan. The other part must guard various passes in Yanshan and protect Pingzhou Road. Wanyan Jiemu led another 50,000 troops south. The troops that Wanyan Xiyin could still allocate was extremely limited. Unless the Tiger Lie Army gave up attacking Juyongguan, Wanyan Xiyin could only sigh.

Wanyan Jiemu reported to Wanyan Gao again 100,000, asking him to withdraw his troops as quickly as possible and withdraw all the main forces in Hebei to Zhongshan and the Hejian line. The withdrawal of troops cannot be delayed anymore. If there is any further delay, the main forces in Hebei may be surrounded by the Tiger and Lieutenant Army.

"What should we do? Should we withdraw An Xi and hold on?" Han Qinghe asked in panic.

Wanyan Jiemu shook her head, "The purpose of the Huli Army attacking Zhending Prefecture is to cut off the connection between Youyan and Hebei. Surround our main force in Hebei in Handan and Daming Prefecture. Now that they have taken down Zhending City, they must advance east along the Hutuo River and attack Shenzhou and Hejian Prefecture to cut off the retreat of our main force in Hebei. Therefore, we must block them in Boye and Raoyang and prevent them from attacking Hejian Prefecture, so as to ensure that our main force in Hebei is safely withdrawn."

The Zhending Prefecture and Hejian Prefecture are about 300 miles apart, with Qizhou, Shenzhou and Yongning Army being separated by Qizhou. Boye is the governing office of the Yongning Army, and Raoyang is the county town of Shenzhou. To the east of them is Hejian Prefecture. Wanyan Jiemu intends to rush to Boye and Raoyang in front of the Huli Army to block the Huli Army and win enough time for the main force of the Hebei Jin army to withdraw from Hejian Prefecture.

"It's too late, it's definitely too late." Han Qinghe was very depressed and shook his head repeatedly. "It's six or seven hundred miles from Handan to Hejian Prefecture, and there are still several rivers in the middle. It takes at least ten days for our army to reach Hejian Prefecture. The Zhending Tiger Lie Army can reach Hejian Prefecture within two or three days. Our few people can't stop them at all. Take a step back and say that even if we defend Boye and Raoyang, the Tiger Lie Army can still kill into Hejian Prefecture along the Hulu River, and can still surround our main force in Hebei."

Wanyan Jiemu's mother looked cold, her thick eyebrows frowned, her eyes staring at the map, and she was at a loss.

"Also, if you lead the army to quickly support Boye and Raoyang, what should Anxi do? Do you still want Zhongshan?" Han Qinghe continued. "Since the Tiger Lie Army can conquer Zhending within two days, they can also take Anxi within two days. If Anxi is lost and Zhongshan is lost, the Tiger Lie Army can then directly kill Baozhou, Xiongzhou and Bazhou, and surround all our troops south of Baigou."

"The Tiger Lie Army has the strength to eat us?" Wanyan Jiemu sneered. He had an army of 50,000, and Wanyan Zongfu had at least 200,000 troops. The two armies met and were strong enough to compete with the Tiger Lie Army. Wanyan Jiemu was eager to rush to Hejian Prefecture, which was sure to help the main force in Hebei withdraw safely.

“虎烈军的确没有实力吃掉我们,但整个河北势必丢失.”韩庆和苦叹,“河北丢了,我们凭借白沟可以挡住虎烈军吗?代北虎烈军正在攻打居庸关,如果河北战场上的虎烈军乘势杀进幽燕,两路夹攻,我们还有多大的把握守住燕京?就算我们守住了,但一旦损失惨重,契丹人和大漠诸蕃卷土重来,与虎烈军南北夹击,大金国的形势可就万分危急了.”

韩庆和这番话让完颜阇母暗自惊骇.离开燕京的时候,完颜希尹就一再嘱咐过,这一仗不管最后打成什么结局.女真人必须守住幽燕,这是底线.若要守住幽燕,最好的办法莫过于牢牢控制河北三镇,以三镇之地和白沟为屏障阻截虎烈军.现在真定府已经丢了,如果中山再丢,虎烈军直逼白沟,威胁燕京,金军根本无法坚守河间府,最后的结果必定非常糟糕,甚至危及到国祚安危.

Wanyan Jiemu was in a dilemma and could not make any choice.

If you quickly support Hejian Prefecture, Zhongshan will definitely be lost. If Zhongshan is lost, the three towns in Hebei will definitely be finished. If Hebei's three towns are finished, Yanjing will be in danger. If defending Zhongshan, the Hejian Prefecture is very likely to fall into the enemy, which will lead to the main force of the Hebei Jin army being surrounded by the Tiger and Lieutenant Army. The final result may be even worse. Not only will the main force in Hebei suffer severe damage, but all the three towns in Hebei are lost, and even Youyan is in danger.

Time waited for no one, and the fighter's opportunity was fleeting. Wanyan's mother was so anxious that she didn't know what to do.

Of course, Han Qinghe did not want Wanyan Jiemu to leave Zhongshan, so he took the initiative to make suggestions, gather troops, and launch an attack on Zhending.

攻打真定,可以把部分虎烈军的兵力牢牢拖住.当然了,如果能把虎烈军主力拖住更好,但目前看来不可能,虎烈军不会丧失包围河北金军的机会,不过,因为中山金军的攻击,虎烈军肯定无法把大部分兵力投到河间府战场,这有利于河间府方向的军队据城坚守.只待完颜杲,完颜宗辅带着河北主力撤到河间府,虎烈军的围歼意图就失败了,如此金军则可展开全面**,重新夺回真定府,确保控制河北三镇.

Wanyan Jiemu weighed the pros and cons, and finally accepted Han Qinghe's suggestion. Although the Tiger Lieutenant Army was very strong, the Jin army was not weak either. In his opinion, Wanyan Gao and Wanyan Zongfu could completely withdraw back to Hejian Prefecture safely. The idea of ​​the Tiger Lieutenant Army trying to surround the Jin army with almost a few forces was simply an unrealistic fantasy.

On the 18th, Wanyan Jiemu and Han Qinghe launched another attack. This time, the Jin army tried their best and did not dare to slack off at all.

Luo Lan, Wang Gui, and Lin Chong commanded the army to fight hard to block the attack.

On the same day, Zhang Gao'er and Gao Baolong led their troops to attack Shenzhou. Li Jin and Dugu Feng led their troops to follow.

After receiving the news from the Shahe battlefield, Yue Fei was very happy that the Jin army's counterattack hit his mind.

"The Jin army in Zhongshan is in a dilemma, and it is their best choice to do everything. "Sun Ge smiled and said. "The Jurchens have already lost Zhending Mansion. If Zhongshan is lost, not only will Hebei not be able to defend, but even Youyan is in danger."

"Wanyan Zongfu has an army of 200,000, and is very strong. With such strength, he can indeed withdraw back to Hejian Prefecture safely." Huang Zong also smiled, "But Wanyan Talan and Shandong Jin Army are their lessons. Once Zongfu heard that it would be lost, our army is fighting towards Hejian Prefecture with all his might. In Hutuo River and Hulu River, we will wait for troops on the front line of Hulu River, and we will definitely not dare to withdraw from Hejian through Jizhou to avoid repeating the same mistake."

"Whether Zong Fu can force him to go directly to Zhending, the key is whether we can quickly take down Hejian Prefecture." Yue Fei shook his hand, and a trace of worry appeared between his eyebrows. "The Zhongshan Jin army counterattacked with all its might. The purpose is very obvious, which is to hold us back to help the Hejian Jin army defend the city."

"The governor has no need to worry." Sun Ge said confidently, "The main force of the Jin army in Hebei is in Handan, and Youyan's reinforcements from the south are restrained by us in Zhongshan. The number of enemy soldiers in the direction of Hejian Prefecture is limited. If we are lucky, we may be out of the way."

"Does the governor still remember the incident when the Jin army went south and swept across the three towns in Hebei?" Huang Zong also comforted, "In the past, only Zhending soldiers and civilians in the three towns in Hebei were stubbornly blocking the enemy. Zhongshan and Hejian surrendered. From this, we can see that the bureaucrats in the two places were as timid as mice and were vulnerable at all. These bureaucrats were basically retained by the Jurchens later. Now they see that the Jin army is no longer able to do so. Our tiger and Fiery Army is invincible in the Northern Expedition, and we will definitely surrender."

"Shameless people have their own way of survival." Sun Ge said contemptuously, "As long as the governor passes the letter to Guishuai and Baoshuai, they will shoot the books and persuade them to surrender every time they arrive, and promise to have high officials and generous salaries, they will definitely receive miraculous results."

Yue Fei hesitated for a moment and nodded slightly. He thought of Liu Yu and his son. After the Central Plains War last year, Yue Fei betrayed his promise and acquiesced Wang Yuan to kill Liu Yu and his son and a group of Shandong officials. This incident won the favor of the people of Central Plains and Shandong. However, the officials who surrendered to Jin in Hebei were deeply worried about the death of the rabbit and the fox. They may not believe the promise of the Tiger and Lieutenant Army.

On the 18th, Wanyan Gao arrived in Jizhou and received a letter from Wanyan Jiemu. He learned that Zhending was lost. He immediately changed his color in shock. He never dreamed that Zhending City was lost in just two days, which was simply incredible.

The loss of Zhending City completely disrupted the deployment of the Jin army. Wanyan Gao regretted this. If he had known this, he shouldn't have hesitated at the beginning. He should have personally rushed to Handan to supervise Zong Fu to withdraw his troops. If everything goes well, the main force has now withdrawn from Zhongshan and Hejian, and Zhending City will not be lost, and the entire battle situation in Hebei will not fall into extreme passivity.

Wanyan Gao immediately ordered Zong Fu to ask him to evacuate Handan as quickly as possible.

At this time, Liu Yanzong reminded Wanyan Gao that Handan was more than 700 miles away from Hejian Prefecture and had to cross several rivers in the middle, and Li Hu's army was pursuing with all its might. If the Jin army wanted to retreat to Hejian Prefecture, it would take at least ten days. If Li Hu's pursuit was extremely fierce, then, let alone ten days, I'm afraid that Zong Fu and his army would not be able to reach Hejian Prefecture within half a month.

What does half a month mean? It means that the Hedong Tiger Army has not only reached Hejian Prefecture, but may have even captured Hejian City, and has built a solid blocking battle formation between the Hutuo River and the Hulu River, cutting off the Jin army's way to retreat north.

Wanyan Gao was dizzy and his strong sense of suffocation made him almost breathless, "What should we do? How can we turn the situation around?"

"Wanyan Jiemu and Han Qinghe obviously predicted the development of the war situation and were doing their best to * Zhending, trying to hold the Hedong Tiger Lieutenant Army and give our army time to withdraw back to Hejian, but his troops were not strong enough and could not play a role." Liu Yanzong sighed, "The main force of the Tiger Lieutenant Army in Hedong is about to attack Hejian Prefecture. If Zong Fu withdraws his troops as planned, he will definitely be in a dead end. In this case, we might as well let Zong Fu go directly north and take advantage of the main force of the Hedong Tiger Lieutenant Army in attacking Hejian Prefecture, quickly enter Zhending, attack the Jin army in Zhongshan direction from north to south, and regain Zhending City, and then reverse the entire battle situation."

More than 500 miles from Handan to Zhending, there is a spacious road that is unobstructed. Zong Fu can keep some of his troops in Handan to block Li Hu, and the main force will go north quickly and travel day and night, and arrive at Zhending in four days. Then, imitate the Hu Lie Army and conquer Zhending with absolute superior forces. In this way, the overall situation can be determined.

After carefully weighing the pros and cons, Wanyan Gao flatly accepted Liu Yanzong's suggestion and asked Zongfu to go north and attack Wanyan Jiemu from north to south to regain Zhending City.
