Chapter 557
Jian Yumei saw that they set out quickly, with 30,000 men, 10,000 Mongolian iron cavalry, and more than 20,000 naturalized Han troops. These were all Torre's troops.
He will take this army to sweep the Jin Kingdom, attack the heartland of the Jin Kingdom, and face the troops that might have been thrust out of the Jin Kingdom.
This army without supplies just crossed mountains and ridges. In fact, they could not get help from the Song Dynasty, because the Mongolian army seized several Song Dynasty cities close to the Mongolian Khanate a few times in the previous times, and they were extremely cruel. The killing and looting awakened the Song Dynasty.
The soldiers of the Song Dynasty along the way were all wary of the Mongolian army.
The Mongolian army could only advance in the barren mountains, and they did not want to cause trouble. They were also afraid that the Song army would forcefully intercept them.
They needed supplies and tried to loot in the suburbs, but even so, the soldiers and civilians of the Song Dynasty would resist strongly.
In the Qinling Mountains, the Mongolian army was struggling all the way. They often couldn't see any people. This was not a prosperous place. They ate wild grasses, wild fruits, even dead people, dead horses and animals to maintain their lives, and then continue to move forward.
When they came to Dengzhou through great hardships, they were indeed a tired army.
But this tired army immediately plundered everywhere to replenish themselves, and then they still maintained high morale and launched an attack on the Jin Dynasty's city.
The Jin Kingdom was panicked.
Because the Mongolians appeared on their abdomen, this was something they could never have imagined.
They also had no way to verify the specific military strength of the Mongolians. They just knew that it was the army led by Torre and led by the Mongolian military leader.
"Is Torre leading the army to destroy us?" Jin Aizong, the emperor of the Jin Dynasty, said to his ministers.
Everyone looked at each other, but the situation was unclear. The result of everyone's discussion was to mobilize heavy troops to fight against this army.
"Transfer my order, appoint Wanyan Heda as the head coach, and mobilize our elite gold 120,000 to fight against Torre," Jin Aizong finally ordered.
Jian Yumei saw that many of this troops were mobilized from the front line of Tongguan that was directly confronting Mongolia, gathering most of the famous generals against Mongolia, and more than a dozen famous generals were in the formation.
This time, the Jin Kingdom was facing a great enemy and wanted to destroy the army led by Torre in one fell swoop.
The Jin army lined up a long luxury front along Dengzhou. Torre feinted several times, all ending with the victory of the Jin people.
At this time, Torre began to hide, and the Jin people could no longer find his army.
When he had the opportunity to attack the Jin people's baggage, he robbed them. The Jin people sent a large army to fight, and he hid.
The Jin people's Dengzhou defense line was there, but Torre would not go there to fight the decisive battle.
During the Spring Festival that year, the Jin people thought the situation was great and relaxed their defenses.
But Torre suddenly crossed the river and went north. He bypassed Dengzhou and came to Xiangzhou to loot.
Among the people of the Jin Dynasty, there are all ethnic groups, but they are mainly Han people. At this moment, everyone is in the atmosphere of the Spring Festival and is ruthlessly killed and robbed by the Mongolians.
All the men who went where the Mongolian soldiers were killed, and the women were plundered and ravaged in the army. The Mongolians fully supplied themselves this time, and also restored the soldiers who had suffered all the hardships in the barren mountains. It's full of vitality.
At this time, Ogedei's army had already captured Hejian Prefecture. Because the main force of the Jin Kingdom was transferred to deal with Torre, Ogedei easily got this important town. Then he waited for the Yellow River to freeze, and finally in the tenth day of the year. The queen found a place where the water could pass shallow and crossed the Yellow River.
After Ogedei's heavy troops crossed the Yellow River, they rushed all the way, and the Jin people realized that this was the main force of the Mongolian Kingdom's destruction of the Jin Kingdom.
Jin Aizong hurriedly ordered the troops who dealt with Torey to withdraw their troops and returned to Bianjing. Because the capital was empty, the two Mongolian routes made him very worried.
Jin Aizong hoped that after the tens of thousands of troops who had dealt with Torre, he could save the capital and defeat the Mongolian army that had come from afar.
After receiving the order, Wanyan Heda hurriedly ordered the withdrawal of troops.
The army retreated all the way, but at this time, Torre sent troops to harass the Jin army continuously, exhausting the Jin army.
Then Torre detoured to the rear of Wanyan Heda. He was in a place, Sanfeng Mountain, where there were ravines and continuous mountains. The back of Sanfeng Mountain was Junzhou dozens of miles away.
Torre is waiting for Wanyan Heda here because this is the only way for the Jin Kingdom to withdraw from Bianjing.
Torre plans to fight Wanyan Heda here.
"Dad, are we going to fight them here?" Mengge asked Torrey.
"Yes, Mongo, we have to fight here," Torre said.
"Are we sure? We only have more than 20,000 people, and they still have more than 100,000 people," said Mengge.
"Enough, although they have many people, there are ravines and steep mountains at this moment. They are the same as us in the local area. The morale, will and strength of our army are stronger than theirs. We will destroy them bit by bit. Force, we will win,” Torre said.
"Yes, I know my father's intention. If we let them return to Bianjing and we will attack together, maybe the enemy will be prepared and we will work harder. This is the mountains and fields. We can use their disadvantages to fight to eliminate them. "Mong Ge said.
"Brother Meng, you are a commander, you will be very powerful," Torre said.
"Okay, dad, I'm going to make arrangements. We will do the fortifications on the way they must go, waiting for them," Meng Ge said, and then he raised his head and came out of the tent.
Torre nodded to Mengge's back.
At this moment, the Jin soldiers received a series of urging imperial edicts from the emperor and were running towards Bianjing.
But in this Sanfeng Mountain, they saw all Torre's troops waiting for battle here.
Torre is waiting for them here.
Looking at the high mountains, Wanyan Heda sighed.
"I must go over here and return to Bianjing, otherwise I will have no soldiers available in Dajin and the country will be in danger," said Wanyan Heda.
At this moment, he thought of the Jin Dynasty when it was in full swing. When Wanyan Agu, the leader of the Jin Dynasty, found out the good poem "Ten Miles of Lotus Pond, Three Autumn Osmanthus", the number one poet of the Song Dynasty, it was found. The intention of destroying Song and occupying Song.
But his troops were blocked by a big river. When Wanyan Agu was frustrated there, he dreamed that the gods were guiding the way. The gods said to him, "You want to throw the whip into the river and you can cross the river."
Wanyan Aguda woke up and remembered this dream. He came to the river.
He gave everyone the order to throw the whip into the river.
Everyone followed his orders and threw the whip into the river.
At this time, a miracle happened, and the thrown horse whips immediately turned into a long bridge.
Wanyan Aguda shouted, "I'm God blessed," and rushed over.
The generals led the army across the river one by one.
From then on, they opened the road to Bianjing and finally destroyed the Northern Song Dynasty.
