Han Shizhong led the generals to stand on the city and stared at the rolling wolf smoke rising from the distant Gobi desert.
The generals' expressions were a little solemn.
The Jin people bypassed Juyong and took the initiative to attack the Mongolian troops in large numbers, but in fact they wanted to conquer the border of Xixia and then use Xixia as a springboard to counterattack the Great Yan.
Han Qi was worried.
Yao Gu, the general of the Western Army who assisted the Western Xia in defending the border, had repeatedly sought emergency help, but Han Shizhong did not move.
In fact, Han Shizhong did not make any mistakes in not sending troops to rescue Xixia, but... in the hearts of all the generals, everyone understands that the mother and son of Yelu Nanxian in Xixia are the emperor's woman and biological flesh. Once there is something wrong with Yelu Nanxian and his son, Han Shi
The Zhonghe Juyongguan defenders are to blame.
At this time, Yao Gu had already stationed on the Xixia defense line.
Han Shizhong was the closest elite Yan army to the Western Xia. He could only ask Han Shizhong for help while reporting to the capital. As a result, he reported three times in a row, but did not receive a response from Han Shizhong.
Yao Gu was furious, but never showed it.
The army explored horses and reported every day. The Jin man Wanyan Zongpan led a 100,000 main force of the Jin army to mobilize troops to hold troops to the northwest. Although the nominal sign was under the banner of conquering Mongolia, the signs were already very obvious. The Jin people had ulterior motives for the Western Xia.
.
Yao Gu knew very well that Xixia could not make mistakes. If the Jin people were allowed to go straight in and kidnap Yelu Nanxian and his son, he would not be able to take it.
As a general who defended Xixia, his wealth and life were all related to the safety of Xixia.
Over the past few days, Yao Gu's entire mind has been in a state of high tension and alertness, and has been unable to sleep for several nights.
In the entire Xixia area, news of the Jin people's large-scale invasion had already spread. The Xixia people were in panic all day long, and merchants and caravans from the Western Regions and Central Plains were quickly evacuating Xixia.
Upstairs of Xingqingfu City.
Yelu Nanxian had a charming face, holding his son Wang Hao's little hand, and walking on the wide and flat city tower.
She leaned over and picked up Wang Hao and stared at the distant depths of the desert.
Behind her was the Five Hundred Guards, the female Jinyiwei sent by Li Lan and Yan Qing to specialize in guarding her.
In addition, there is a Thousand Houses stationed in the Xingqing Prefecture City.
Yao Gu is on the front line of defense and on the second line, and there are 20,000 elite Yan troops.
With the local troops and horses of Xixia itself, it shouldn't be too big of a problem with Xixia's defense.
But this time the Jin army was powerful, and almost everyone in the Western Xia was worried that Yao Gu could not stop Wanyan Zongpan.
Yelu Nanxian looked at him for a long time before sighing, "My son, the Jin army is coming to my Xixia, are you afraid?"
A blush appeared on Wang Hao's tender little face. He shook his little head vigorously and said crisply: "Mom, Hao'er is not afraid. With Mom and the emperor's army and horses, Hao'er is not afraid!!"
"My son is so brave. You are right. With your father here, no one in the world can hurt us two."
"Mom, I want to see my father."
"Well, when the Jin soldiers are defeated, I will take you to Yanjing to pay homage to your father."
A female Jinyiwei rushed up the city tower and bowed and said, "Empress, little prince, Your Majesty has issued an order from Yanjing and ordered us to immediately protect the Empress and the Little Prince to leave Xixia and enter Beijing!"
When Yelu Nanxian heard this, the last trace of worry between his eyebrows disappeared instantly, and replaced by a strong look of happiness.
She hugged Wang Hao tightly and said softly: "Haoer, I'll take you to Beijing now. Your father has summoned you."
...
The night falls.
The Jin people's camp was built against the mountain, with a huge momentum.
Wanyan Zongpan's tent was brightly lit, but the generals under him and the other son Wanyan Zongya, who was counseling military aircraft, also looked bad.
As Han Shizhong predicted, although the Jin people rushed towards the Mongols and threatened the Xixia border, their actual strategic intentions were very obvious. Wanyan Zongpan attacked Juyong, and Wu Qimai personally led the way to the north as early as possible.
Lurking north of Anzhou, their target is Gubeikou.
In Wanyan Zongpan's view, as long as the Jin army broke through any barrier between Juyong or Gubeikou, the capital of Dayan, Yanjing, was flat and unprepared for the Jin people.
The purpose of the Jin people's feint attack on Mongolia and Xixia was to attract Han Shizhong's troops to disperse.
As a result, Han Shizhong was not deceived.
Juyongguan's defense is still unobstructed.
Wanhuoli bowed and said, "Master, since the Yan army has not been deceived, then our army simply turns around and launches a fierce attack on Juyongguan! The last general doesn't believe this evil. Can the Yan army now compare with it.
The Khitan wolf cavalry was even harder to deal with?”
Wanyan Zongya smiled bitterly and stopped him, "Never! Juyong Pass is a famous pass in the world. The mountains are steep, easy to defend and difficult to attack. Our army will attack Juyong with great difficulty, and the casualties will definitely be tragic."
Wild Huoli sneered and turned around and said, "Third Prince, our army's original intention is to attack Yan, but now we have come from the border of Xixia thousands of miles away. If our army is entangled by the Yan army here and let the Yan army attack inside and outside, it will be truly a difficult situation and casualties
It's so heavy!"
"My Jin warriors have never been afraid of death or war! The general, no matter how much casualties he has made, as long as he can defeat Juyong and attack Hebei, great things can be accomplished! The opportunity is fleeting, and the people of Yan will return.
Before we could react, our army launched a surprise attack, and the chances of winning were at least 70% or 80%!" Wildhuoli said again, and the other generals also agreed.
Wanyan Zongpan's face was gloomy and he pondered for a long time.
He didn't know that it was difficult for Juyongguan to attack, and that a strong attack would inevitably lead to huge casualties.
But at this point, the Jin army had no way out.
If Juyong does not attack Juyong, the southern invasion of the Central Plains and the destruction of Dayan is just an empty word, and it is even a huge joke that makes people all over the world laugh at.
Wanyan Zongpan slowly stood up and punched the table with a heavy punch: "Forget it! I passed the order of my commander, and the entire army immediately set off the camp and rushed towards Juyong! Tell the entire army that the warriors can only win but not lose in this battle, if our army retreats
, My great gold is dead!"
Wanyan Zongya's mouth twitched, but she was helpless.
It is already difficult for him to stop Wanyan Zongpan from changing his mind.
In fact, from the moment the Jin people sent troops, there was no way back.
This battle is the last battle, with the Jin Kingdom winning and the Great Yan destroyed; otherwise, the same is true.
…………
At dawn, when the earth was shaking violently, Han Shizhong suddenly felt excited, turned over and sat up from the marching bed, then put on his armor, and hit the army to blew the loud horn of the general gathering, and then quickly climbed to Guancheng with a solemn expression.
Sure enough, the yellow sand is everywhere, and the military flag is waving.
The Jin army, which could not be seen at first sight, came all over the mountains and fields.
Han Shizhong shouted: "The Jin army has arrived, and the entire army has it, so we can defend the pass!"
The desolate snare drums shaking the wilderness inside and outside the pass. The Juyongguan defenders who had been waiting for the game to rush to their position step by step, and everything was ready.
