Besides, Yelu Chongyuan, after taking the imperial city north of Linhuang Mansion, basically captured all the civil and military ministers of Liao and the emperor's mother, queen, concubines, and children, only Yelu Hongji's third daughter, Princess Yelu Tri, escaped, and the escaped Liao princess did not think that she would stay away from her mother country and spend her life in the palace of Western Xia.
To get back to the point, Yelu Chongyuan only took less than an hour to take the entire Linhuang Mansion, which was a major victory for Yelu Chongyuan, but this was only the beginning, in the camp of the Southern Liao Army outside Linhuang Mansion, due to a night of marching, there was another battle, and the Southern Liao Army under Yelu Chongyuan was exhausted, and was camping by the Langshui River outside the city at this time.
In Yelu Chongyuan's big tent, Yelu Hongji's mother, Empress Dowager Xiao, was invited in, and she was still very polite to her sister-in-law Yelu Hongji, and after Empress Dowager Xiao was escorted in, Yelu Chongyuan immediately reprimanded the soldier and said: "Bastard, how can you treat this king's imperial sister-in-law like this, get down and lead the army yourself." ” Yelu Chongyuan trotted to the side of Empress Dowager Xiao and said, "Imperial sister-in-law, you see that the people below are not sensible, and this king will loosen your ties." ” After Empress Dowager Xiao was untied, she glanced at Yelu Chongyuan without a good face and said: "Traitor, if you provoke civil strife in Liao, aren't you afraid that you will have no face to face your ancestors in the future?"
Yelu Chongyuan sighed and said: "Imperial sister-in-law, you have to figure out, the eldest nephew of this king is too disagreeable, you look at the things he did, this king is really afraid that the foundation of this great Liao will be destroyed in his hands, so he has no choice but to raise troops on the side of the king, but who would have thought that the emperor's nephew did not know what to do, and even ran away; The younger brother asked the imperial sister-in-law to write a letter to the emperor's eldest nephew, asking him to come back honestly, and the throne of Da Liao was still his. ” "Phew" Empress Dowager Xiao angrily reprimanded Yelu Chongyuan: "Traitor, your conspiracy will not succeed, since my son has fled, he will not come back, you just wait for the day when my son will lead thousands of troops to behead the heads of the people waiting for you."
Yelu Chongyuan persuaded the Empress Dowager Xiao bitterly, the Empress Dowager Xiao did not eat hard and soft, and there was no way but to escort the Empress Dowager Xiao down, and the next person to be escorted up was Yelu Hongji's queen Xiao Guanyin, who is also a historical celebrity, this person is beautiful and beautiful, charming and moving, introverted and delicate, very talented, proficient in poetry, music and rhythm, and plays the pipa well.
For Yelu Chongyuan's coercion, Xiao Guanyin, who has been well educated since childhood, behaved extremely toughly, and Yelu Chongyuan didn't know what to do, so he could only temporarily detain these, for these arrested royal families, Yelu Chongyuan's heart was very complicated, whether it was Yelu Chongyuan or Yelu Hongji was his uncle and nephew, these royal family members were their family members, and secondly, these people were an important bargaining chip to blackmail Yelu Hongji in the future.
Just when Yelu Chongyuan burned down Linhuang Mansion, the 400,000 Southern Liao troops stationed on the south bank of the Huang River launched a fierce attack, and the 400,000 troops successively crossed the Huang River to kill Yelu Yixin's camp.
The battle was extremely miserable, although the Southern Liao army had an advantage in terms of strength, but the Southern Liao army was crossing the river to fight, and it was easy to be attacked by Yelu Yixin half-crossing, many Southern Liao soldiers were shot to death in the river before they could land on the shore, and the 400,000 Southern Liao army was a bait for Yelu Chongyuan, and it was a bait with offensive power.
If Yelu Yixin wants to eat this bait, he must give up rescuing Linhuang Mansion, but if Yelu Yixin wants to rescue Linhuang Mansion, this bait will be in hot pursuit, and the final outcome is to be attacked by Yelu Chongyuan's two troops from north to south, in fact, this is Yelu Chongyuan's strategic deployment, originally planned to annihilate Yelu Hongji in one fell swoop, but he didn't expect to be run away by Yelu Hongji.
After resting for half an hour, Yelu Chongyuan led 200,000 iron cavalry from the north to kill along the Huang River, at this time Zheng Hui led 400,000 Southern Liao troops had already established a beachhead on the north bank of the Huang River, and the battle along the Huang River was fought from day to evening, and the Southern Liao army suffered heavy losses, and finally gained a foothold on the north bank of the Huang River.
When Yelu Chongyuan led the army back, Yelu Yixin had already led the army to retreat to Raozhou, and the Southern Liao army that had fought for a day could only camp on the north bank and wait for the next day to fight again.
When Yelu Chongyuan was preparing to eliminate Yelu Hongji in one go, Yelu Hongji had fled to Yong'an Mountain at this time, and Yelu Hongji, who came to Yong'an Mountain, immediately took over the command of 100,000 Northern Liao Yuan troops, and at the same time, Yelu Hongji was unwilling to fail, and led his troops south to attack Yelu Chongyuan's army overnight, at this time Yelu Yixin led the palace tent army to retreat to Raozhou.
Because Yelu Chongyuan didn't know that Yelu Hongji still had a large army in Yong'an Mountain, Yelu Chongyuan threw all his 600,000 troops into the battle of Raozhou City, intending to annihilate the main army of Yelu Hongji in one fell swoop.
Just when Yelu Chongyuan desperately attacked Raozhou, Yelu Hongji led the army to kill back, although there were only 100,000 troops, but the 100,000 soldiers and horses were all cavalry, at noon on the fourth day, when the Southern Liao army attacked the city the fiercest, Yelu Hongji suddenly killed from the rear of Yelu Chongyuan, and directly caught Yelu Chongyuan off guard.
But this was only the beginning, after Yelu Hongji entered the large array of the Southern Liao army from the rear, the palace tent army besieged in the city was also killed; Under the attack from both sides, the Southern Liao army, which had just achieved an unprecedented victory, was defeated, Yelu Hongji came to a Jedi counterattack, and Yelu Hongji personally led the troops to pursue and kill the Southern Liao army.
Yelu Chongyuan commanded his elite cavalry to resist desperately, and the two armies came to a large-scale decisive battle in the Raozhou area of Huanghe Road, the Southern Liao Army was twice as much as the Northern Liao Army in terms of strength, but in terms of combat power, the Northern Liao Army was stronger than the Southern Liao Army, and the two sides could be said to be evenly matched, but because Yelu Chongyuan was attacked by Yelu Hongji, it was at a disadvantage as a whole.
The two sides fought for seven days and nights, of course, they would not fight all the time, and the final result was that Yelu Chongyuan fought and retreated and finally withdrew to the south bank of the Huang River, after expelling Yelu Chongyuan from the south bank of the Huang River, Yelu Hongji followed Yelu Yixin's advice and did not continue to pursue, the reason was that he suffered heavy losses, and this decisive battle can be said to be a defeat for both sides.
After this battle, the whole Huang River was full of corpses floating everywhere, blocking the entire river, it was spring after this tragic war, due to the poor handling of the corpses, it was easy to break out of the plague, even in the cold north, the disaster of the Liao State began at this moment, after this battle, it was impossible for both the Southern Liao and the Northern Liao to eliminate each other in a very short time.
In this battle, the Southern Liao Army lost more than 200,000 troops, and the Northern Liao Army lost more than 100,000 troops, and the ratio of the losses of the two sides reached two to one, but if it was from the overall strategic point of view, it should be Yelu Chongyuan who won the victory, although Yelu Chongyuan suffered a large loss, but no matter from which aspect it achieved a major strategic victory.
