After receiving Lin Jianyue's envoy, Lin Jianan did not hesitate and immediately ordered Gao Liang to lead 30,000 cavalry troops to replenish the military forces of Dasanguan. At the same time, he ordered Zhuge De to prepare for war at Zhanyangguan, ready to quickly attack Guanzhong through the Ziwu Road.
The generals of the Han Mansion were very excited without knowing the inside story, thinking that they were about to enter Guanzhong, and they were ready to go.
When Zahmien, who was in Guanzhong, saw Dasan Pass, Wuguan and Hangu Pass both acted, became nervous and hurriedly sent a message to Dadu, and he also prepared for the garrison and collected supplies.
In April 244, Lin Jianyue led an army of 60,000 to land at the Yellow River Ferry of Cizhou, Hedong, and advanced east along the Fen River. In just one month, he occupied the prefecture of Jinzhou and the four northern counties, threatening Taiyuan and Longde Prefecture. The military strength in Hedong was insufficient and in a panic. Aricha's letter of help had already arrived in Dadu.
There is no need to say much about the importance of Hedong. Without waiting for the important officials to discuss, Li Chongshan saved the most important Taiyuan first, and immediately sent Diesh Ha to lead his 30,000-year-old Qixue army to Taiyuan quickly.
Lin Jianyue did not have too many troops entering Hedong, and it was absolutely not enough to occupy Hedong. Li Chongshan was temporarily unsure of his mind, so he invited the four important officials to discuss matters.
Now Qin Zhenghao speaks less and less, and even directly tells Li Chongshan that his suggestions have caused the Khanate to be strategically passive and he has to bear the main responsibility. He has already made plans to resign and go home to retire, but Li Chongshan disagreed.
Now, Batusu, who is mainly one of the double walls of the empire, speaks.
"Your Majesty, Lin Jianyue is indeed powerful and has a strong strategy and courage. I want to lead the army to Hedong to meet him. It has been a long time since I encountered such a real opponent. This time, Lin Jianyue entered Hedong. I don't think it was a conspiracy, but an open conspiracy. This move directly hits our weakness. Lin Jianyue's number of soldiers is not large, and he has a great position. We don't have a 200,000 army, so we will definitely not be able to wipe him out. Once there is any disadvantage, we will go directly into the mountains. Once we relax, he ran out to threaten Taiyuan and Longde Mansion. We cannot ignore it. This will hold us back. Not only will it consume military strength, but it will not be able to cause trouble for him south of the Yellow River. As long as he develops for a few more years, the price we pay will be even greater and more difficult to deal with."
Qin Zhenghao knew that Batusu was absolutely correct, and he also admired the younger generation who was many years younger than him. In the past, the Daning court was not without amazing figures, but they were all subject to the constraints of the court and did not have the power of completely independent Lin Jianyue.
Qin Zhenghao was sure that as long as the Hu people could not completely destroy Lin Jianyue, they were so young, and they basically did not make any mistakes after they started. The Hu people's final outcome would probably have to withdraw from the outside of the pass.
Li Chongshan said in surprise: "I rarely see a marshal praise for a person so much, but still a young man. Since he is so strong, it is better for me to meet him."
Batusu was speechless. You are naturally good at being a Khan and being a King, but marching and fighting are not that kind of things. If you have no experience and talent, you will be a delivery of food, let alone a master like Lin Jianyue.
Batusu hurriedly looked at Qin Zhenghao and asked him to try to dispel Li Chongshan's idea.
Li Chongshan noticed Batusu's small movements and felt a little unhappy. He just looked down on me like that?
Qin Zhenghao couldn't stand up and said, "Not to mention Lin Jianyue, even the entire Central Plains is just a corner for the Great Mongolian. The Khan is so precious, it is the hope of the world. How can he take risks for just Lin Jianyue? Marshal Batusu and his marching are the duty of Marshal Batusu and others, but not His Majesty. Besides, the terrain of the Hedong place is really difficult to grasp. Your Majesty is better for Batusu in Dadu, and it is also convenient to grasp the overall situation. The soldiers in front have a clear mind and will achieve twice the result with half the effort in the battle."
Li Chongshan understood it clearly, and it means that he really can't fight, but he just said it nicely.
Since even Master Qin said this, even though Li Chongshan was not convinced, he knew the kindness of Batu Su Qin Zhenghao and the others, so he could only send Batu Su to him.
Qin Zhenghao didn't want Batusu to go, but he wanted Li Chongshan to go in person. Maybe there would be some miracle. However, evasion is not a way to escape. The brave ones win when they meet on a narrow road. Heroes and heroes will eventually meet. It would be better to meet earlier than later.
Being able to lead the Batu Su army to Hedong is already a major strategic victory for Lin Jianyue.
Liu Jingye knew that Batusu personally brought another 80,000 troops to Hedong, and couldn't help but worry that Batusu was actually stronger than Su Hedai, and that was really invincible.
I immediately wrote a long letter on Batusu's past glorious battle examples and his personal military use habits, personality, and shortcomings, and urgently sent someone to Jinzhou.
While urgently preparing materials to send them to the location that had been favored in Taiyue Mountain District, he also sent a letter to Liu Bingyun from Luoyang, asking him to prepare for the reception of Lin Jianyue.
Liu Jingye blamed Qin Zhenghao in his heart, why didn't he stop Batu Su from coming to Hedong? Even if Li Chongshan came in person, he had already been prepared for rebellion.
After reading Liu Jingye's letter, Lin Jianyue was not as nervous as everyone. Since Batusu came, he had already won. He was still eager to try, wanting to see how great Batusu, who was stronger than Su Hedai, was.
The military strength is indeed at a disadvantage, with 50,000 yuan in Longde Mansion, 80,000 yuan in Batu Su, and 30,000 yuan in Taiyuan Mansion. Lin Jianyue knew that he was indeed not an opponent, but he was not going to face the battle head-on. Lin Jianyue had decided to delay for one more day to win.
Liu Bingyun from Luoyang panicked and hurriedly called Tieqinglin and Hao Tianfeng to ask them to squeeze out their troops to continue crossing the river, and to take Lin Jianyue out first.
Hao Tie and the others looked at each other. Before this began, they were afraid that they would become like this? When Liu Bingyun talked about Batusu's past, the two of them were also panicked.
The two of them can decide on their own elsewhere, but if the army wants to go to Hedong again, they must obtain Lin Jianyue's consent, because this has violated Lin Jianyue's strategic intentions.
Just when he was at a loss, Lin Jianyue wrote from Hedong. In just one sentence, Luoyang was not allowed to cross the river by himself, and he had to wait for Lin Jianyue's instructions.
Even if Liu Bingyun gets angry or beggs, it will be useless. This is Lin Jianyue's final decision.
There was no choice but to find Li Jizhong and Li Yang and ask them to send additional personnel to Hedong to find Lin Jianyue.
As soon as Batusu arrived in Taiyuan, he learned about Lin Jianyue's march route in Hedong. He did not rush to Jinzhou. Instead, he ordered Aricha to lead 30,000 cavalry and 30,000 infantry to bypass Jinzhou and occupy Cizhou again. He was not allowed to attack without orders. He just wanted to kill Lin Jianyue's retreat and the warships on the Yellow River. At the same time, he notified the defenders of the southern prefectures and counties, and had no other orders to go to war privately and engage in military law.
After setting Lin Jianyue in Jinzhou, Batu Sucai led 80,000 cavalry and 50,000 infantry out of Taiyuan and slowly came to Jinzhou.
When Lin Jianyue saw that Batusu was so steady, he would force him into the mountains without giving him a chance. Lin Jianyue understood that as long as he moved, the cavalry would immediately surround him quickly.
