Chapter 3: The Capture of Shuozhou

The Jin cavalry on the opposite side may be too confident in this vicinity, and almost did not send scouts, and also, as an area occupied by the Jin people, those Song troops are like rabbits, and the timid turtles are cowering in the distance, and they will not come here at all. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info so every time you can rest assured to go out of the city to fight the grass valley, this harvest is good, a small village fifty miles away was slaughtered, and more than 200 Song women were captured, except for a cavalry wounded by the Song people in the village, everything went smoothly, so after slaughtering all the men in this small village, all these women were captured into Shuozhou, and then Lord Mouke will definitely be rewarded. Of course, this time they didn't expect it to be their last*.

"Chuck, I didn't tell you, these women can't be killed!! This is for Lord Mooke. A leader of the golden soldiers shouted at the murderous cavalryman.

"Smack!" The whip was drawn at the horseman who had chopped the woman to death.

"Karui, you bastard, you're just a ten-captain Priyan. Dare to hit me! I'm a member of the Mok-sama! The smoked cavalryman shouted.

"You are only worthy of a whip, and you don't frighten me with the relatives of Lord Mouk, and I, Karui, am not frightened. Chop these women again, and I'll break your legs!" "That Pryan said.

"You dare! You dare to beat me for the sake of a Han girl?! Chuck said indignantly.

"Chuck, I'm your Puliyan, if you're not big or small, I know you, but I don't know you with the steel knife in my hand!"

The cavalryman was silent, but his eyes were full of anger.

Rush!!! Bang!!!!

The roar of horses' hooves from the cavalry charge came from afar.

"It's Song Jun!!" Many Jin cavalry shouted one after another, and a Jin captain who looked like Pu Liyan said to the many cavalry: "It's just a group of cowardly Song troops, don't be afraid of them, kill them all!" ā€

All the Jin cavalry howled and raised their scimitars and fearlessly charged back towards the Song army. In their opinion, more than 100 Song soldiers are looking for death, and they are confident that on the battlefield, every brave Jurchen hero can top ten times the Song army, of course, they did that before. The weakness of the Song army has been deeply imprinted in their consciousness. Without the slightest fancy, the two cavalry clashed, blood flew sideways, wailing constantly, Jin Bing didn't expect that the group of black-armored cavalry in front of him was so terrifying, the armor was extremely hard, and the long weapons in the hands of those cavalry were even more irresistible. Like a sharp knife cutting milk tofu, it took away the lives of one golden warrior after another. It was just a face-to-face impact, and only thirty or forty people were killed by more than a hundred golden soldiers. On the other side, the Song army only had one or two fallen horses. Doubts and fears made these Jurchens from the bitter cold land confused, when did the Nanren become so powerful, when did they have such fierce cavalry, these cavalry are simply not human. But as the inherent pride of the Jurchens, there has never been a team on the battlefield that can defeat the Dajin cavalry head-on, not the Liao, let alone the Song!

"Chuck, quick, go!怂 Fast!!! Karui yelled at Chuck.

"Phew!! Karui, I'm not leaving! My Jurchen man has no habit of running away! Chuck held the wound on his arm with one hand and said at Karu.

"Smack!" The horsewhip slashed Chuck in the face.

"Bastard! I asked you to go to the city to report to Lord Mouke, don't you see that the Song army in front of you is different from the past? Maybe the Song army's brigade is watching us from afar!! When I went to inform Lord Moke, I said that there was a team of Song people outside the city. If you want him to prepare early, don't go soon!! Karui yelled.

"Ahem!!" Chuck pinched his horse's head and turned his head to charge back.

At this time, the women of the Song people were already frightened, many women took advantage of the Jin people to leave and ran around, and some people were frightened, standing stupidly in place, not daring to move.

"Jurchen sons, take out your courage and let these Song dogs see the bravery of our Jurchen men!! Kill!!! Karui roared hoarsely, waving the scimitar in his hand and rushing at the Song cavalry. The remaining dozens of golden cavalry rushed up again, and it was another bloody encounter. After the impact, not a single golden cavalry remained on the horses. A few golden horses swirled around alone beside the corpses of the golden cavalry.

Two charges against each other, annihilating all the golden soldiers. Niu Gao suddenly opened the iron mask of the beast armor, wiped the blood on his face, and said loudly: "Happy! Joyfully! It's been a long time since I've killed this hard. ā€

From a distance, Liu Ping looked at this short cavalry hedge, and nodded with satisfaction, at least in terms of field warfare, his Yongding army should not suffer a loss compared to the Jin people.

Suddenly, Liu Ping saw a figure galloping out of the battle array on horseback. Liu Ping smiled and said to the people around him: "It seems that this fish that slipped through the net is going back to report the news." Whoever takes him down for me. ā€

The words just fell. Tang Huai arched his hand and said, the end will be wishing. After that, the Pu knife turned and hung behind the horse. Grab a stiff bow and ride away. Chuck had already run two or three miles away at this time, but it was surrounded by a flat river, so the goal was obvious. Chuck galloped hard, faster, faster, as long as he got rid of the chasing Song Dog behind him and returned to Shuozhou, Lord Mouke would definitely send troops to avenge the people who died in the war. Phew, when did these hateful Song dogs become so powerful. Chuck slammed the longbow on his waist, bent his bow and arrows, and turned around and volleyed at Tang Huai, who was chasing closely behind him. After shooting, he turned around and galloped.

Sou! Sou! Sou! Three arrows, straight in front of Tang Huai, Tang Huai shrank suddenly, dodged the flying arrows, and at the same time opened the bow and aimed at Chuck.

"Poof!" Chuck felt a sharp pain in his heart, and a jet-black iron arrow came out through his chest. Chuck's consciousness blurred for a while, and his eyes went straight to the horse. Behind him, Tang Huai, who was galloping like the wind, came closer, and the Pu knife was drawn and slashed at the ground, and Chuck's head was lifted high. Turning around, he galloped back.

Han Shizhong and others came back to restore their lives, counted the results of the battle, and more than 130 Jin soldiers and cavalry were all annihilated, and all the rescued women were placed in the baggage camp.

The soldiers who were lucky enough to kill the enemy looked proud, while the soldiers who did not participate were envious. Liu Ping said to everyone: "This is just the beginning. In the future, there will be golden people who will let you kill! ā€

"Yang Zaixing!" Liu Pingdao.

"The end will be." Yang Zaixing arched his hand.

"You take a team of scouts and continue to investigate the situation ahead." Liu Ping commanded.

"No!" Yang Zaixing took the order and left.

"Let's set up camp for the time being. Wait for news from the scouts. Liu Ping said to the people beside him. Immediately, an officer came out with an arrow, and rode his horse loudly to pass the order in the ranks: "Master Hou has an order!" Set up camp on the spot! ā€

For a while, the teams stopped one after another to unload the tent wood and grain and forage from the ox cart. Half a day's work set up a simple marching camp. The people of each ministry performed their own duties, but there was no problem. Liu Ping looked at the simple sand table in front of him in the tent and couldn't help frowning.

"General, you see, this is Shuozhou, less than a hundred miles away from here. After Shuozhou, it is Xinzhou, and after Xinzhou, it is Taiyuan. Yue Fei, who had a serious face, used a thin tree strip to conduct military deductions on a simple sand table arranged in the temporary marching tent.

"Now Qin Fenglu's family army is now besieged by the Jin people in Yangqu, I heard that there are only more than 40,000 people left, and the Yao family army retreated to Yuci and started to be a turtle with a shrunken head, it seems that they were afraid of the Jin people. The remaining Zhang Hao's subordinates are quite numerous, and there are nearly 80,000 people, who are still active in the Yuxian area, but they are intimidated by the Jin soldiers and dare not approach Taiyuan. And right now, that's where we are. As he spoke, Yue Fei pointed with his hand: "Shuozhou! We can only enter the vicinity of Taiyuan if we take Shuozhou first, otherwise there is no way to approach Taiyuan, which is surrounded by the Jin people. ā€

In the big tent, everyone nodded one after another, thinking that Yue Fei's analysis was very correct, Liu Ping nodded and said: "The most important thing now is to find out how many golden people Shuozhou is guarding now, and take Shuozhou without startling the snake!" ā€

"Report!" A pro-soldier came in and said, "General Xiao Yang is back." ā€

Liu Ping said: "Let him in." ā€

After that, Yang Zaixing walked into the tent, and his armor was stained with blood. Liu Ping asked, "How?" Zaixing, what's the news. ā€

"Master Hou, I was in ambush outside Shuozhou City with my brothers in the scout camp for a long time, and finally caught a patrol of Jin cavalry, according to the confessions of these tongues, now in Shuozhou City is a Sang Hu Tu Jin General, a close confidant of Wanyan Zonghan, with more than 1,000 horses under his command. According to the tongues who caught, because of the stalemate in the war in Taiyuan, Zong Han couldn't take care of Shuozhou behind, and now Shuozhou is short of food, and Sanghutu sent many golden soldiers to loot grain around the periphery. Good supply for Zonghan's army. ā€

"Mulberry Tiger Figure? Well, notify the scout camp and step up the investigation to see if there are any signs of the Jin People's Brigade around. Even if the brigade is all besieging Taiyuan, it cannot be taken lightly. Liu Ping said.

"No!" Yang Zaixing responded.

"Let's talk about how to take Shuozhou." Liu Ping said to the generals in the tent.

"General, the last general thinks that he can take advantage of the darkness to send our people from outside Shuozhou City to sneak in, capture the city in one fell swoop, and take Shuozhou by chance." Han Shizhong arched his hand.

"General, I'm afraid Lao Han's plan won't work, the city wall of Shuozhou is not low, if you attack rashly, I'm afraid that our army will suffer serious losses." Lin Chong said worriedly.

"So what do you say?" Han Shizhong looked at Lin Chongdao.

"I think it's better to send some soldiers to secretly pretend to be refugees into the city, and it will be easy to take Shuozhou with the outside world." Yue Fei said.

Liu Ping was very conscious of cultivating the military ability of his generals, so that everyone could speak freely, Liu Ping looked at everyone and suddenly said to Lu Ziqiao on the side: "Ziqiao, do you have any good methods?" ā€

As the only marching counselor in the tent, Lu Ziqiao tidied up his clothes and said: "Master Hou, my subordinates have a plan that can minimize our siege losses." ā€

"Tell me." Liu Ping looked at Lu Zhiqiao and said.

"I heard that Shuozhou is short of food, so we will send him food." Lu Ziqiao said lightly.

The generals didn't understand what it meant, but Liu Ping understood it, and said with a smile: "Send grain to the city, good!" "This ploy has been used before. Liu Ping smiled: "Ziqiao and I want to go together." ā€

Liu Ping took the small willow branch in Yue Fei's hand and snapped it on the sand table in Shuozhou's position. He said fiercely: "Let the baggage battalion take out a few carts of grain, and let me change into the clothes of those golden people." Fraud the city, take Shuozhou, tomorrow morning I want to see the heads of more than a thousand gold people in Shuozhou City! ā€

"No!!" Everyone responded in unison.
