"The Southern Korean army is coming!"

"The Southern Dynasty has broken through the Juyong Pass!"

"The Southern Korean army has broken through Zhongjing and fought from Gubeikou!"

"With the help of God, the sea water receded for a hundred miles overnight, and they came from the sea!"

………

Watching the wind-like brigade of Song cavalry galloping through the village and town on the main road, causing chaos in the land of Pingzhou, all kinds of rumors filled the streets for a while. They all heard that the Southern Dynasty army divided its troops into two ways to attack Juyong Pass and Youzhou, and the fourth prince sent the Pingzhou army to reinforcements, and there was news two days ago, claiming that Yanjing had repelled the Southern Dynasty army across the river with a great victory. But now, how come the Southern Korean army is killing from behind in a blink of an eye?

"Change horses!" Jiang Wei didn't have the leisure to care about what those people were thinking, and at this time he had only one thought in his heart, that is, to hurry up and reach Pingzhou as quickly as possible.

"Change horses, change horses..."The order was quickly passed back, the speed of the horses did not decrease, the knights on the horses lightly took the reins, and the deputy horses stepped forward, only to see them take off their stirrups, jump over, control the horses, and complete the action of changing horses on the horse's back like flowing clouds.

"Keep up the pace and keep up with the team!" Jiang Wei gave another order, and the emperor gave Zhao Lian a death order to seize Pingzhou, and Dutong gave him an order, requiring him to lead the leading battalion to seize the city gate and hold it before the arrival of the large army, and to achieve the effect of a surprise attack, it was necessary to arrive before the enemy got the news that the Song army had landed from behind...

"Change horses!" Thirty miles later, Jiang Wei gave the order again, and the same order was issued more and more intensively, twenty miles, fifteen miles, ten miles... The secondary horse is also a horse, although some weight is lightened. But the same follows, and the horse is a competitive animal. As long as the horse in front of it does not stop, it will run down even if it is tired.

"Commander. If you run down again, the horse will be ruined! The commander of the first battalion made Shang Zhan gasp and said, the war horse is now running all over sweat, and if he runs at such a fast speed, he will not only be immortal, but he will also have to cultivate for a long time to recover, and he will not be able to participate in the battle.

"There are horses in Pingzhou City, and all of them will be replaced by new horses when the time comes!" Jiang Wei said casually, as a veteran of the Beifu period, he had been dealing with horses since he joined the team, how could he not know that the war horses would be abolished if they ran like this. But the military order is like a mountain, and Zhilu Dao must also do the same.

"Can the Jurchen horses compare to ours?" Shang Zhan was a little anxious, and said without hesitation.

"You can't listen to it if you run away, otherwise it will be us who will be abolished, and Pingzhou will be attacked This is an order from the emperor himself, how many heads do you dare to discount!" Jiang Wei said sharply, how could he not understand the words of the business war, since the beginning of the pro-guard team, their war horses have been specially trained war horses, and they do not panic when they hear the sound of gunfire. The cannon is not alarmed, it takes more effort to train a horse than others, and even if the battle is won, their losses will be irreparable for a while. The combat power will also be weakened, and the heart will be on fire!

"Huh?! The emperor is also in the army? Shang Zhan exclaimed, and then stopped talking. The emperor was not only their commander-in-chief, but also the founder of this army. How can the emperor not know the things they know, but they don't necessarily know the things that the emperor knows. Since the emperor's order must have been thought of, there is no need for him to eat radishes first and worry about it.

"Commander, there are still five miles ahead of Pingzhou City!" The spies sent by the Military Intelligence Department reported to Jiang Wei at this time, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, one hundred and fifty miles took less than two hours, which is not slower than five hundred miles in a hurry, and he thought that he would definitely be able to catch up with the enemy's messenger.

"Change the main horse and get ready for battle!" Jiang Wei nodded, the mouth of the deputy horse under his seat was already full of white foam, and his body was like being washed with water, although he still ran forward with all his strength, but it was also the end of the crossbow, he gave the order, and cut off the reins of the deputy horse, so that they could leave the brigade.

As soon as the order to change the main horse was issued, everyone knew that Pingzhou was about to arrive, and the battle was about to start, and the spirits were all lifted, and many of them were newly recruited 'recruits' after the expansion of the army and had not participated in real battles, but years of harsh training made them eager to participate in battles.

"Jiadu killed the soldiers at the city gate and seized the urn city; Bdu and Cdu seized the city tower and quickly established defenses; Ding Du is the reserve, gather the war horses, and support at any time! After turning a corner, the south gate of Pingzhou City appeared in front of you, what was surprising was that the suspension bridge had not been pulled up, the city gate was not closed, there were still people constantly entering and exiting, there was only a team of soldiers lazily enjoying the noon sun in front of the door, Jiang Wei gave the battle order. When gang A heard the horn, they immediately accelerated forward, raising the speed of the war horse to the extreme.

The sentry of the Jin Army on the watchtower at the head of Pingzhou City finally discovered the dust and smoke stirred up by the horse's hooves in front of the city, and he was shocked and did not forget his duty, and hurriedly sounded the alarm bell. The defenders in front of the city gate heard the warning and looked at the front of the city, only to see a team of cavalry rushing towards the city gate, but at this time they still did not realize the danger coming, but panicked to evacuate the pedestrians, chariots and horses at the city gate, because they knew that only the fourth prince of Dushuai dared to fight horses so arrogantly and flew into the city.

"It's Song Jun, collect the suspension bridge and close the city gate!" Just as the Jin army guarding the gate was busy preparing to clean the street for Du Shuai, the horse team got closer, and the sentries at the head of the city finally saw the appearance of the incoming army, and saw the sabre in their hands.

"Defense!" The officers in the tower heard the alarm and rushed out of the tower and rushed to the city, they did not expect that the Song army would appear in their hinterland and come to their eyes.

'Squeak, creak...' The heavy drawbridge slowly lifted up with the tooth-aching sound of wheels, and the soldiers in front of the city dragged their horses to block the door, but the sound of the horses' hooves getting closer and closer made them quickly give up their efforts and throw away their work and run to the closing gate.

"Kill...," shouted Hao Bin, the head of the capital of Jiadu, braving the sparse arrows, urging the war horse to step onto the slowly rising suspension bridge, followed by two soldiers swinging large axes to cut the sling.

Hao Bin's war horse had already rushed to the city gate that was about to close, and he was about to collide, but he did not slow down and rushed up, and at the moment when he was about to collide, he suddenly pulled the reins of the horse, and the war horse man stood up, and the two front hooves were like two sledgehammers slammed into the city gate, and the city gate that was about to be closed slammed into a gap that only allowed one horse to pass.

A sergeant who followed Hao Bin immediately urged the horse to get in, and slashed the two Jin soldiers who closed the door with a knife, and the other Jin soldiers ran away when they saw that they couldn't turn around and run, "Don't entangle, seize the gate of the urn city!" "Although the main city gate has been occupied, there is still the city gate of the urn city, and the jack gate on the city gate has slowly fallen, Hao Bin shouted to the soldiers who are swarming in to chase and kill the Jin army guarding the gate...

………

After the Jurchens occupied Pingzhou, they wanted to implement their Meng'an Mooke system, but they were strongly opposed by the residents of Pingzhou, so they still maintained the traditional feudal county system, so the system of collecting troops and horses was much worse than that of the Jurchens. When they organized people to block it, not to mention that the people couldn't stop it, the Song army had already gone away, and all they could do was to report to the upper side and clean up the softness.

The Funing County Commander was taken aback when he received the report, and immediately ordered people to close the city gate, summoned his subordinate township soldiers and young people to defend the city, and at the same time sent people to send a letter to Nanjing for help. But where did it come from, as soon as the front foot gate was closed, the rear foot Song army wolf soldiers arrived, surrounded the city and shouted, immediately open the city and surrender, otherwise the chickens and dogs will not be left after the city is broken.

The officials and gentry in Funing City were shocked, in the past, the Southern Dynasties mostly adopted the policy of appeasement, and today how can they change their past practices, which are more ruthless than the Jurchens. Just when he hesitated, the Song army had lost patience, they launched an attack on the four city gates at the same time, the Jin army defending the city plus the young and strong people who assisted in the defense were less than a thousand, and they had been in the rear for a long time, the city was in disrepair, and the generals lacked training, and the Song army had already panicked when they saw the tide coming.

For the siege of the city, Zhao Ta has already summed up a set of effective methods, that is, to clear the perimeter, suppress the enemy's defending troops at the head of the city with superior firepower, cover the siege troops through the '100-step life and death line' in front of the city, fill the moat or erect a pontoon bridge, and then use the method of blasting to break the door or blow up a section of the city wall to break into the city.

A small city like Funing, which has poor defenses and weak troops, will not pose a threat at all in front of wolf generals who have undergone strict siege training. They only sent one brigade to attack the city, each commander was responsible for one door, and now the artillery was still on the ship and had not been unloaded, but the fire of the machine guns was enough to suppress the enemy troops at the head of the city.

The smoke and dust are dispersed, the defenders at the head of the city have not yet woken up, the Song army has already entered the city, one goes to the city to clear the remnants, one controls the various intersections, occupies the commanding heights, because the four gates are breached, none of the people in the city can escape. Chang Chao, the commander of the first brigade, led his troops directly to the county office, and after a short time the battle ended, all the officials in the government were escorted to him alive.

Chang Chao ordered people to go forward to identify them correctly, and without asking questions, the soldiers of the military justice team stepped forward and took the people to the street outside the county office, and shot them to death in the street. At this time, the battle was basically over, and under the leadership of the spies lurking in the city, the Jurchens who had slipped through the net launched a large-scale search and arrest of the traitors and traitors who had taken refuge in the Jin State.

The same scene also happened in Yuguan, Liucheng, Haiyang and other counties and towns, where the Song army set off a bloody storm everywhere it went, and the Jin officials and Jurchens who were killed, and the Khitans, Bohai people, and Yanyun Han people who took refuge in them were thousands of people, and officials and tyrants from all over the country were swept away...
