On the edge of the wharf in the northeast of Pingzhou City, there was originally a small village.

Because of the chaos, it has long been abandoned.

But with the attack of the Jurchen army, when the entire Pingzhou area, and even some surrounding areas, tens of thousands of displaced people heard that they could take a boat from here and evacuate to the safe and rich Song land.

But in a very short period of time, there are 10,000 people here.

Even after being transported away by the Dengzhou Navy warship twice, there were still 20,000 or 30,000 people gathered here.

Thanks to the first time the Dengzhou sailor came, there was plenty of grain and straw delivered.

At Hu Biao's suggestion, Zhang Jue could gather these people and implement the means of cash-for-work.

Specifically, in addition to letting these displaced people work together to strengthen the city defense of Pingzhou City; A large number of trees were also cut down, and in a very short period of time, this small village near the sea was transformed.

It was transformed into a two-meter-high, civil engineering structure city wall, which enclosed the entire wharf and was like a dock village.

He even used some surplus weapons and armed more than 1,000 armed men to guard them.

This is also one of the biggest reasons why the Jurchen cavalry did not think about breaking this place, and then drove the twenty or thirty thousand homeless people here to attack Haiyang City.

It's not that the 3,000 Jurchen rangers can't beat such a dock.

Rather, it was a limited number of Jurchen cavalry, who did not want to expend their precious forces here at all; I plan to let the Liao infantry who surrendered under him first take Haiyang City.

As a result, some subsequent developments in the battle situation greatly exceeded the expectations of the Jurchen side.

will make this dock village still exist well.

In addition, it should be noted that in fact, Zhang Jue, Hu Biao and other officials did not think about giving such a temporary refugee camp an official name at the beginning.

However, it is affectionately called Taiping Fort by a group of refugees.

Maybe it's the lucky name of hope that pins on the last bit of desire and expectation in their hearts for this world.

After a little time, Taiping Fort also became the official name of this dock village.

In short, when Hu Biao and the others successfully came to the outside of Taiping Fort in the already slightly bright sky, this time they opened the humble gate very smoothly.

In the ensuing period, some of the temporary shacks built by the displaced people were urgently requisitioned.

Finally, there was a place to settle down, and all the wounded were given time to heal and rest.

By the time the wounded, including myself, had all been treated and bandaged, it was about 9 o'clock in the morning.

At that time, because of too much blood loss, Hu Biao felt extremely depressed and weak; If he could, he would have liked to sleep well in the shack.

However. Just think of the current bad situation.

He was so anxious that he couldn't sleep at all.

To know! According to the requirements of the last stage of the system, breaking through from Haiyang City is only half completed.

It is also necessary to send Ma Kuo, Yue Fei and others to the warship of the Dengzhou Navy Division to leave safely, so that the task of this time can be completed.

Today's time is only the morning of August 8th, and with the speed at which the Nadengzhou sailors are grinding, I am afraid that it will not arrive until two days later, that is, in the evening of August 10 at the earliest.

With the current state of being defeated by a remnant of the army, can they hold out for such two and a half days?

Anyway, don't talk about others, Hu Biao himself has no confidence.

In the end, Hu Biao could only select a singer in a slightly better situation as the captain from among his injured subordinates, and brought three other people to ride a war horse and set off to watch from afar outside Pingzhou City.

If you find something happening over there, you can have a little more time to react.

In addition, all the young and strong among the displaced people were also mobilized, fortified and prepared for fighting.

After all of them are added up, there are really a lot of people, and there are more than 12,300 people according to rough statistics, which can be used for defensive operations.

It's just that in a hurry, most of them don't even have a serious weapon in their hands, so they can only use a wooden stick that is sharpened and burned with fire, which can be regarded as a reinforcement.

There are no long-range weapons such as bows and arrows, and armor and other armor at all.

More critically, these people don't have a bit of morale.

It can be said that once the fight starts, in terms of combat effectiveness, compared with the mobilized people in Haiyang City, they are fundamentally two different concepts......

******

At the same time, that is, when Hu Biao and the others began to wander around in Taiping Fort with full exhaustion, they were in the Jurchen camp outside Haiyang City.

After Yan Lou was in a coma for most of the day, he finally woke up leisurely.

For the first time, he could see that on the side of the bed, a guard with a look of ecstasy didn't wait for him to ask what the specific situation was now.

The guard shouted 'Lou Room is awake' and rushed out of the tent like the wind.

Soon after, a large group of people rushed in, saying nonsense such as 'Lou Mu, you finally woke up', 'Lou Mu, how do you feel'.

After looking around, Wanyan Lou found that in this group of people, all of them were his subordinates Meng'an and Mouke.

In addition to the officers who originally stayed in the camp to participate in the siege troops, even the officers of the 3,000 cavalry troops outside Pingzhou City also appeared in it.

And there are some familiar faces, which are no longer visible.

After thinking of something, he couldn't care about every breath he took now, and the wound under his ribs was a sharp pain, and he cursed in his mouth:

"Shut up and tell me how we lost in our camp last night, and what happened when I fainted. Saha, Yanqian, you two come to pick up the important ones and say~"

After the voice came out, it was actually hoarse, and he himself was startled.

Saha is a confidant of the Seven Waters Department under the command of Wanyan Lou's room.

After hearing Yan Lou's inquiry, he said with a wry smile: "Last night, a fire burned almost all the grain and straw in the camp, as well as almost half of the tents, killing and wounding 167 people.

In addition to Lou Mu's injury, the Shaman was also killed by those Song dead soldiers. ”

Hearing this, Wan Yan Lou's mood was already extremely bad, and then he soon knew that the bigger bad news was still to come.

The person who was called the man was the thousand-strong commander Meng'an, who led the 3,000 cavalry outside Pingzhou City.

When he heard this, he began to say:

"Last night, the Song people of Haiyang City, taking advantage of the fact that those dead soldiers were fighting to the death in the camp and attracted the attention of others, began to break through from the north gate towards Pingzhou City.

These Song people are really powerful, and it is not appropriate to take their own lives.

Two of my men were killed, one wounded, and 219 wounded, leaving behind more than 400 of them, and the rest broke through the barrier and fled.

Remembering your injuries, we did not continue to pursue, but hurried back to the camp overnight. ”

After being besieged in the city of Haiyang for a long time, the Song people, who killed their Haoxi warriors, successfully broke through the siege; The grain and grass of this side were burned to the ground, and the loss of personnel was also very great, and the morale was even more low.

Combining all of the above, Wan Yan Lou let out a long sigh.

Although he couldn't wait to eat his flesh raw at Hu Biao and the others, he also knew that they couldn't fight anymore.

However, he still held on to the luck mentality, and asked the last sentence in his mouth: "After Haiyang City was taken, how many grains, grasses and medicinal materials were seized in the city?" ”

After hearing this, his henchman Saha's face became even more ugly:

"There is no seizure, these Song people are very cunning.

I don't know what kind of evil methods were used, but at first one of our warriors entered the city, but found a lot of grain and grass in the city, but before we could start to carry it out, a fire broke out in the city.

There were more than a dozen warriors, who failed to escape from the city, and were folded in the fire one by one, and now Haiyang City has been burned to the ground. ”

After hearing this, Wan Yan Lou Room was finally completely desperate.

Just before he gave the order to retreat the whole army and retreat to Bei'an Prefecture first, a personal soldier rushed in with ecstasy, and his mouth was a huge piece of good news:

"Lou Mur, Pingzhou City has sent an envoy.

It is said that they not only did not let Hu Biao and other Song people enter the city, but also controlled Zhang Jue and his henchmen, and waited for us to receive ......"
