Tatars are divided into black and white, one in the north of the desert and the other in the south of the desert. Although they are called Tatars, they are actually very different. High-quality updates, from the appearance, the white Tatars have delicate skin and fair skin, probably of the blood of European whites, and have a high level of education. They are very filial to their parents and cry when they are mourned. Therefore, there are a few scars on their good faces, and they believe in Nestorianism, a branch of Christianity.

The black Tatars were poor and clumsy, and they were relatively slim. They had broad faces and high cheekbones, no patterns on their eyes, few hair and beards, and they looked ugly. They were many and small tribes, and most of them became followers of foreign races, relying on Khitan or Bohai, and now they were gold, advocating black, and believed in shamanism or Buddhism.

The northern desert of the Mongolian Plateau belongs to the plateau mountainous area. It is mountainous in the north, west and southwest. Hang Ai Mountain, Kent Mountain and Altai Mountain are the main mountain ranges, with a terrain tilted from northwest to southeast. In the east, there are slightly undulating high plains, with fresh waters of all sizes distributed, with more than a thousand saltwater lakes, and the grasslands on the verge of lakes and grasslands, and the Gobi desert lies across the south.

The southern Gobi District, commonly known as the desert, has relatively flat terrain, with large tracts of exposed rocks and deserts, sand dunes, depressions, and ridges, mixed with a few mountains and hills, lacking rivers and lakes, and is a dry, barren and barren area. The desert Gobi extends to the west and connects with the Junggar Desert, becoming a natural barrier on the Mongolian grassland...

Zhao Qi was surprised. He was very busy every New Year. He either happened this or that happened. He was not able to live in peace anyway. High-quality updates were over the first day of the Chinese New Year, and he received an emergency border relationship - the Black Tatar invaded Fengshengzhou, and the White Tatar tribe could not resist it and asked for reinforcements.

In the past two years, Zhao Qiong has been in good condition with the Tatar tribes in order to develop the waters and rivers. There is a vast desert in the middle, and there is almost no contact between the two sides. They suddenly attacked Xijing but didn't know why? Could it be that it was because of heavy snowfall this year and the weather was extremely cold, which caused a large number of cattle, sheep and other livestock. The Black Tatar tribes could not survive the winter and then ventured across the desert to find food?

But Zhao Xiao thought about it again, things would not be that simple. The city of Bianjing is fighting fiercely now. What are the Jurchens most afraid of? He must be worried that he would make a spoil and ruin their good things. The peace agreement between the two sides was not reached. Then the Jurchens bribed the black Tatars and asked them to go south to harass them. They restrained their troops and were unable to support the Song Dynasty, and then successfully captured Bianjing!

The territory he had just captured could not be handed over, so Zhao Qi immediately convened an emergency meeting to discuss military information. Yelu Yuxi volunteered to lead the imperial guards to Fengshengzhou for reinforcements. He knew very well that if he wanted to maintain his position in Xijing, it would not be possible to just rely on his old position. He would not be sure to beat the Jurchens. He would still have a solid foundation when he was fighting these Tatars.

Zhao Qi considered that Yelu Yuxi was once a Khitan general and had no problem with command ability. He had dealt with the Tatars and was familiar with their customs and combat methods. He was at ease in suppressing or tutoring the people, so he agreed to take him as the commander and lead the troops to reinforce. He also ordered the tiger general stationed in Datong to move forward to Yangcheng to support him, and ordered the lion general stationed in Yuanzhou to go to Baishuili to set up defenses to prevent the Tatars from rushing to Xijing Prefecture to harass...

Yelu Yuxi ordered to lead four generals stationed in Tiancheng County and Changqing, Datong Prefecture, a total of more than 20,000 people, with Yelu Mawu as the vanguard army commanding 5,000 troops. Taishinu was the commander of the central army, and Puda was the commander of the rear army. Within two days, the assembly was completed and headed towards Fengshengzhou. Three days later, the former army commander Yelu Mawu arrived at Yangcheng and stood in front of the village outside the city.

Yelu Mawu contacted the White Tatar leader who fled here, and the Yangcheng County Magistrate also informed him of military information. The Black Tatar that invaded this time was mainly Wei Jiu tribes in the Black Mountains. About 10,000 troops were dispatched to cross the desert on a strong windy night and suddenly appeared in Fengshengzhou. The nomadic White Tatar tribes were defeated by them before they could gather. The population and livestock suffered heavy losses and could only retreat to the front line of Yangcheng, hoping to ask for help from Xijing.

The next day, Yelu Ma led his troops to Yangcheng to join the Bai Tatars troops and launched an attack on the enemy. The two armies fought fiercely in Yangcheng for half a day. The Xijing army beheaded 500 people, and the enemy retreated back along the Lightning River. While leading the troops to chase, he reported the military situation to the Dushou Yelu Yuxi, and asked him to catch up with Fuyi Town.

But Yelu Mawu was eager to win and forgot Yelu Yuxi's warning not to attack rashly, and to wait patiently for the arrival of the army to launch an attack. He did not wait but chased him overnight and arrived outside Fuyi Town before dawn. At this time, the 20,000 left-wing troops of the Black Tatars had set off from the upper reaches of the Lightning River and headed straight to Baishuili to the south of the front army. After learning about this information, Yelu Mawu immediately returned from the same route and wanted to retreat to Yangcheng.

After Yelu Mawu arrived, he immediately prepared to attack the Tatars' garrison despite the fatigue of marching for several days. At this time, the Tatars had already set up a bow formation just in case. At this time, Yelu Mawu discovered that the enemy was several times that of his own. He was worthy of being a veteran of the battle formation. He immediately sent five hundred people to attack the enemy's food, grass, herds and families, with the purpose of disrupting the enemy's formation. He led the remaining troops to attack the Tatars and tried to go down.

The Tatars quickly launched an attack from both wings and repelled Yelu Mawu's first echelon. He personally led the second wave of troops to continue the attack and failed, with severe casualties. At this moment, the Tatar army, which was defeated by him, followed him and walked out from behind the mountain, forming a clamp-up and surround with the left and right sides of the left and right sides. Yelu Mawu's vanguard army could not resist such fierce attacks, and was defeated again. He led the remaining soldiers to break out.

Yelu Yuxi, who had just arrived in Yangcheng, heard that Ma Wu tribes were surrounded and rushed to rescue the siege. On the way, he encountered the two thousand Tatars troops and launched a fierce battle. The Tatars troops fought and retreated, leading him to go deeper north. The next day, Yelu Yuxi met the defeated vanguard army thirty miles outside Fuyi Town, and set up camp in Dongchuan, Helihu that night, and waited for the situation to be discovered tomorrow before attacking.

However, before dawn, the right army of the Black Tatar had already arrived from the hidden Gou Li, and joined the left army general, Helihu Dongchuan, surrounded him. He was beating thousands of arrows at the same time. The unprepared Xijing army immediately became in chaos. Yelu Yuxi realized that the Black Tatars were not the ten thousand people they had said in advance, but nearly 60,000 people. He immediately reorganized his army to break out in the direction of Fuyi Town.
