At the end of February, the Liaohai Sea bleeded, bringing two news to Li Manhou, one good news and the other bad news!

"Jiang Hua died in battle?"

The result was something that Li Manhou never expected. Jiang Hua had sufficient troops and had enough food and grass stored in Jinzhou. He was just for the purpose of seducing the Jurchens to attack the city and then killing them in large quantities. As a result, the Jurchens really came to attack the city, and Jiang Hua was actually beaten to death.

Jiang Hua was the most capable general in Li Manhou's hands. He stood out from the bandits and surpassed his old superior Huama Liu, who opened the town first.

He was able to lead cavalry and infantry, and even learned the tactics of sailors. He was a rare versatile talent under Li Manhou's tent, but he died just like that.

However, soldiers die on the battlefield and die in a place of vain. No matter how sad it is, they can still be accepted. A powerful general like Zhao Li can be beaten to death, let alone others.

"How did Wu Shu break the city wall?"

"The ambush was set up outside the city, and Jiang Zhenfu was ambushed when he left the city!"

The messenger answered.

"Why did Jiang Hua leave the city?"

"They built Changwei, fired fire bombs from the Changwei, ignited food and grass, and could not save it. In the end, the city was short of food, and Jiang Zhenfu led his troops to break through, intending to go to the state, but ended up in the fall."

Died from an accident! The officials in charge of the warehouse are professional. If they fail to do arson well, is they dereliction of duty?

"How many people escaped?"

"Not a thousand!"

Such an accident is already considered destiny.

"Did the Cang official escape? If he escapes, check the reason. If it is a human negligence, he should be killed!"

Li Manhou estimated that the possibility of dereliction of duty was very high. The farming people had long experience in warehousing, and even had legal provisions to stipulate the process. Doing it carefully, fire prevention and theft prevention is the basis. It is a joke that the enemy can burn all the food and grass by shooting some fire bombs!

"I inform the entire army after the investigation."

It is a pity that Jinzhou fell, and there was a missing road leading to the upper reaches of the Liaohe River. As long as the landing state is still in hand, the Liaoxi Corridor is not controlled by Wu Shu, so he cannot go south from somewhere.

"How old is Jiang Hua's son this year? If you want, let his wife take him to Qizhou and raise him with my son. Jiang Hua died and died on the battlefield. His son is the new governor. The court does not recognize him, but the Dongfan government recognizes him!"

The Jiyi Literary quickly recorded the orders of Li Manhou and then classified them to Youshi.

The good news is before the bad news, but the news that Jiang Hua died in battle made the good mood brought by the good news a little colorless.

This instead allowed Li Manhou to think about the problem more calmly.

Talan did not go to the Khitan area controlled by the Nanguan Khitans, but went to Yalushui and went to the Posu Road to detour Liaoyang Prefecture. He also swept away the army of Posu Road. It was obvious that the guards here were his followers, or he killed the guards and conquered the others.

He led the Xi people and the Posulu Jurchens to attack Liaoyang, and Talan controlled Liaoyang in early February. But then he fought with the Khitans. Before Wushu could quell the rebellion, the Khitans in Nanguan arrived. What's strange is that the Khitans were still fighting with the Jurchens in the Hosu Pavilion.

It turned out that the Jurchens of the Hosuguan had defected to the Khitans. Their leaders claimed that there were three people from his distant ancestors, one of whom entered Goryeo, one of whom entered the Daliao, and one of whom stayed in his hometown. The Daliao treated his ancestors quite well and appointed them as the Grand Marshals and asked them to defend the Liao territory.

This is a fence-between. They may not be able to explain the ethnic composition of the people who come and claim that their ancestors are close to each other. In short, they defected to the Khitans, and the Khitans gave the title of Taiwei to the leader of the Hosuguan, and still asked him to take over the seven Jurchens of the Hosuguan. No wonder they were able to make peace in the Liao Kingdom, but they still made peace in the Jurchens. This is a routine.

There were not many people in the Jurchens in the Hesu Pavilion, and only three thousand soldiers were sent out. Almost all the Khitans were soldiers. Yelu defeated Jin and sent 5,000 troops, a total of eight thousand soldiers to attack Liaoyang. However, Talan had more than 10,000 troops, two thousand Xi soldiers, three thousand Posulu Jurchens, and ten thousand Liaoyang defenders. In this case, Talan instead drew troops north, transferred 10,000 Liaoyang defenders out of the city, and followed him north to Xianping Prefecture. Only two thousand Xi soldiers and three thousand Posulu people defended the city.

After all, Talai was better at talai and asked a thousand Liaoyang Prefecture defenders to go to Koucheng. It was said that Liaoyang Prefecture was attacked by the Liao gangs and asked Xianping Prefecture to send troops to rescue him. Xianping Prefecture didn't know that it was a plan. If Talai appeared here, they might all know that Talai would defect and would not open the city. But the approaching Liaoyang Prefecture guards were in the Liaohe River Basin and needed to watch and help each other. After all, the Song gangs and the bandits invaded, looting the territory of Xianping Prefecture more than once.

As a result, the garrison of Xianping Prefecture was attacked by the Liaoyang Prefecture and directly controlled it. At this time, Ta Lai appeared and lobbed them. At the same time, nine thousand troops outside the city came to the city, and both kindness and power were used. Ta Lai used to have a high prestige in the Liaodong region. Most of the defenders had old age, and Ta Lai was very eloquent. Everyone knew that he had made great achievements in the Great Jin Kingdom, but was purged by the little emperor. Ta Lai also claimed that the throne of the little emperor was not upright, which destroyed the successive rules of the brothers set by Taizu, which led to the young lord ascending the throne and the powerful ministers in power. Today, Wushu is such a powerful power.

Under the trick of Talai against Wushu and Juzhen, the defenders of Xianping Prefecture chose to be loyal to Talai. The time was right, so they had to rush their troops to go north to clear the throne. But it was not suitable now, because the Liao gangs really entered the country.

Talai led the Xianping Prefecture and the Liaoyang Prefecture to fight with Yelu Pojin. Yelu Pojin was defeated and almost died in the battlefield. The Jurchens of the Hesuguan who surrendered to him launched a behind-the-scenes attack on him. I don’t know if it was Talai’s arrangement or these fence-bearing enemies temporarily. In short, Yelu Pojin fell into a desperate situation. In the end, he led less than a thousand people to escape from the siege and return to Nanguan City.

Talai did not pursue him. It seemed that the Jurchens in the Liaodong region were already used to these Khitans. They could not kill them all, but could not drive them away, and they agreed to the current situation of their living in Hesihan area.

Later, Talan issued a gathering order to the surrounding prefectures, Meng'an and Moukes in the name of the defenders of Liaoyang Prefecture and Xianping Prefecture. A large number of Jurchens, Meng'an and Moukes, led Ben Meng'an and Moukes to Liaoyang City. At this time, Talan appeared and fooled these Meng'an and Moukes, and finally collected 30,000 troops in his hand, almost the entire Liaodong Jurchen troops centered on Liaoyang.

Then Talan prepared horses and soldiers in Liaoyang City, trained soldiers, and armed Ali Xi. He planned to follow the decisive battle that might occur at any time, and at the same time sent a letter of national request for help from the State of Song.

But the enthronement that Talan insisted on before was gone. This made Li Manhou feel that this cunning fox might have regarded the enthronement as a smoke bomb that confuses the Song people from the beginning. He did not intend to let the Song Kingdom enthrone him from the beginning, because once he accepted the enthronement of the Song people, he would have no rationality to win over the Jurchen tribe.

The power of Talai developed very quickly. On the one hand, he had a huge influence among the Jurchens, and on the other hand, there were a large number of Jurchens who were dissatisfied with Wushu.

The Helanidian Jurchen quickly surrendered to Talan. Because they were the biggest victims of Wushu's rule, they were abandoned. After Wushu's rule, they never received any assistance from going to Beijing. The Helanidian Jurchen was a marginal tribe among the Jurchens, and it was very late to surrender to the Wanyan tribe. When the Wanyan tribe and the Goryeo people were fighting for the rule of Helanidian, they were caught in the middle and were attacked by the Goryeo people and killed many people. There were thousands of prisoners alone, and these people were later returned, but when the Jurchens rose to destroy the Liao Dynasty, their vitality did not recover.

After following Agu, it was the most wonderful time of the Holaidian Jurchens. They captured a large number of Khitans and Bohai slaves. Later, they attacked Song, and they expanded like balloons. Good days came quickly and went quickly. The Song people suddenly came by the sea and captured their city.

The people of Helan Dian actually didn't need a city. Before the Goryeo built a city here, there was no city here. They all lived on the mountains and hunted for a living. Hunting on the mountains in spring, fishing on the beach in summer, and living without a fixed place. The Goryeo built nine cities here, so they had a city. Usually, Meng'an used to station troops and control the surrounding areas. Most Jurchens were still used to live in villages, and used slaves to open up a large number of flower arrangement fields, half farming, half acre, half acre, half a fishing and hunting.

However, the Song people kept fighting with them, and they could not defeat the Song people's cities, just like they could not defeat the Goryeo people back then. Most of the cities built by these Goryeo people were by the water. When spring and summer came, the Song people's warships appeared on the river, setting up the moon formation to sweep away the Juren.

Soon the Khitans also came. They snatched the Jurchens' pastures, grazed here, and sneaked around to capture the Holaidian Jurchens to be mine slaves. Later, a large number of East Vanguard slave teams also came, and they were even more abominable, cunning and treacherous, making the Holaidian Jurchens unable to disperse their actions even when hunting.

These greatly affected the survival of the Holadian Jurchens. The gold and silver that had been plundered with the Wanyan tribe were gone, and the Khitan, Bohai, and Han slaves were gone. They hid on the mountain, but were still constantly captured, unable to farm, unable to grazle, and hunting was not safe. They rely on the small amount of supplies sent by the Wanyan tribe through the mountains and ridges, but the supplies were cut off. Isn’t this the life of the Holadian Jurchens?

So the Helanidian Jurchens began to flee, mainly to Goryeo to make a living. Therefore, when the Talan envoy contacted them and asked them to fight against Wushu, they did not hesitate. When Talan told them that they could negotiate with the Song people, and under the witness of their messengers, the Song officials promised that the Helanidian Jurchens would not be attacked again in the future. The Helanidian Jurchens sent three thousand warriors to Talan.

These are all the males in the Helan Dian Jurchens, one thousand of whom are less than fourteen years old, and hundreds of them are already wearing white hair. They put their hopes of survival on Talan, and they may not be able to support their citizens. They sent these males to find food, and the big family of Talan is here to eat Talan.

After the Jurchens of Helandian, the Jurchens on Subin Road north of Helandian also surrendered to him. Here is the minister of the Wanyan clan. Shitumen and his brother Diguna were Meng'an. They once fought a war with the Goryeo people in Helandian, and were then placed here by the Wanyan tribe to manage the Jurchens here. The geographical location is north of Vladivostok. The descendants of Shitumen were in charge of the Jurchens Meng'an Moukehu in Subinshui, and Digunai was in charge of the Jurchens Meng'an Moukehu in Yelanshui, and the two tribes were combined into one thousand households. They were also dissatisfied with Wushu giving up Helandian, and at the same time they were also attacked by the slave team, and they did not rescue them in the capital. Recently, there was still famine and life was difficult.

Since they were not the main target of the Song people and were too far from the north, they were frozen in winter and the Pacific warm current could not be melted, so they preserved a large number of primitive men, and all of them could form an army of 10,000 people.

But they did not have the despair of the Laidian people. There were only 3,000 people in a Wanhu Mansion on Subin Road, but they were all middle-aged soldiers. They were personally led by the famous general Diguna, who rushed to Liaoyang Mansion to meet with Talai.

Just as the small group of Jurchens on the border were envoyed, Tala's troops became more and more powerful, reaching 40,000. The reinforcements that had been asked for help from Song State did not arrive, but Song Ting's enthronement came, and he was indeed appointed as the Liaodong Jiedu and the Liaodong County Prince. When Tala was encircling Song Ting in Shandong, the Southern Song court was afraid of the Jurchens and dared not enthronement. When Tala had already controlled the Liaodong Plain, the enthronement came.

But Talan burned the canonized letter in public and drove away the envoys of Song State. He stated in public that he was the prime minister of the Great Jin State, and that his purpose of raising an army was not for himself, but for the purpose of clearing the monarch. Even if Song State gave him a prince, he would not like it, let alone just a prince.

The performance won the hearts of the Jurchens who voted for him.
