The so-called caravan consists of three people, one businessman and two assistants. The businessman is a man in his thirties. His name is Peng Ying, a captain of the scout camp. The two assistants are his subordinates.
On Gao Ding's order, he came to contact the Song army ambushing in the city.
"Proprietor, there!"
One of his subordinates suddenly saw the sign of Ping An Inn.
Peng Ying also saw it, a small inn that looked a bit shabby, but the sign was new.
He walked over with his men and walked into the door of the inn. A waiter came up to him and said: "The inn is full, please go elsewhere!"
Peng Ying took out half a copper coin and handed it to the waiter, "You can stay in the hotel with it!"
The clerk took the copper coins and looked at them. They were the promised Qingli coins. He quickly smiled and said, "Please come in!"
The shopkeeper also came out, looked at half a copper coin carefully, and took out half a Qingli coin from his arms to check. It was a perfect match. He waved his hand and said, "Please follow me!"
Peng Ying followed the shopkeeper into the inn and came to a room in the backyard. The shopkeeper closed the door and said with a smile: "What is your name?"
"Peng Ying, I have all the scouts under General Gao."
"It turns out to be Peng Dutou. My name is Wang Hong, the person in charge of the Fangzhou Point of the Intelligence Agency."
With the expansion of strategic goals, the Third Scout Battalion originally commanded by Hu Yanlei has been assigned to the Intelligence Agency and is under the responsibility of a special government office. Hu Yanlei was changed to the deputy commander of the Tianlong Battalion directly under Chen Qing.
Wang Hong poured Peng Ying a cup of tea and asked: "When are you going to take action?"
"It should be tonight. General Gao asked me to go into the city to contact the hidden scouts. How to find them?"
"Don't worry, Peng Dutou. I'll go find their leader."
"Where are they lurking?" Peng Ying asked again.
Wang Hong smiled and said, "How can it be so easy to lurk? They have all been recruited as laborers and are building warehouses! Only in this way can two hundred people stay in the city, otherwise they will be easily discovered."
Peng Ying nodded, "Time is tight, it's best to contact us now, I have to go out of town to report!"
........
Half an hour later, a burly man came in, wearing short clothes, with a square face and sharp eyes. It was Yang Rui who had just been promoted to the scout commander. He and Tang Qian were responsible for burning the granary of 100,000 enemy troops.
Each of the great meritorious deeds were promoted one level, and Yang Rui was promoted from deputy commander to commander.
This time he led two hundred scout soldiers to sneak into the central county as laborers to participate in the construction of warehouses. Today is the third day, and unexpectedly people came.
"Is the action tonight?" Yang Rui asked excitedly.
Peng Ying nodded, "At the third watch tonight, I wonder if General Yang has observed the night defense in advance?"
"We have all carefully observed it. If nothing else happens, seizing the South City Gate is the most suitable one!"
Seeing doubts in the other party's eyes, Yang Rui explained with a smile: "First of all, we can lurk in the inn, and soldiers are also in the inn. We can pretend to be patrol soldiers and go directly to the city. Secondly, there are not many defenders in Nancheng.
We can control the alarm bells and then open the city to let the army enter the city silently. Moreover, the military camp is very close to the south city gate, only one mile apart, so we can quickly control the military camp."
Peng Ying thought for a while and said: "The military camp is very close to Nancheng. If the enemy is alerted, the enemy will immediately come to support, which will be even more risky."
"There is indeed a risk. If we are discovered by the enemy, we will quickly move to the east city wall to respond. Therefore, we need to deploy a thousand soldiers on the east city wall to prevent accidents."
The two discussed the details for a while, and then Peng Ying quickly left the inn and went out of the city.
...........
The time gradually reached the third watch, the sky was covered with dark clouds, there was no starlight or moonlight, and the night was extremely dark. Gaoding led 10,000 troops and gradually approached the south gate. At the same time, he sent another 1,000 soldiers to the east city as a backup plan.
It was very quiet on the top of the city. Two groups of soldiers were patrolling the top of the city. They did not realize that the war had come. In their consciousness, the war was still happening far away.
Including General Jin Bing also realized this. This was the result of delayed intelligence. The intelligence they had just received was already ten days ago. Within ten days, the Song Army had already reached them.
At this time, a patrol team of 200 people walked out of the alley next to the inn and ran towards the city. Yang Rui waved his hand and they immediately divided into two groups. One hundred people were responsible for controlling the city gate, while Yang Rui led
One hundred soldiers ran along the corridor towards the city.
"Password!"
A soldier on the tower saw the patrol approaching and immediately shouted.
"Asshole! You don't even recognize me anymore, so what password do you need?"
"I don't know you, someone is here..."
The soldier didn't cry out, but someone behind him covered his mouth and stabbed him in the back of the heart with a knife.
This soldier was the only one on duty in front of the tower. Everyone else was sleeping inside the tower. Yang Rui waved his hand and he kicked open the door and went in with a knife.
Yang Rui was worthy of being a killer. He was extremely decisive and did not hesitate. He and his men killed all the thirty soldiers on the city wall.
The drawbridge began to creak as it lowered, the city gate opened, and the three soldiers lit torches and waved them into the darkness in the distance.
Gaoding led nine thousand soldiers just one mile away. He saw three torches and immediately ordered: "Enter the city!"
Nine thousand soldiers, led by Gao Ding, rushed towards the south gate...
But things often happen by coincidence. At the third watch, it happened to be the time for the changing of the guard. More than a thousand soldiers came out of the military camp and prepared to go to different places to change the guard. The commander-in-chief Uzabu was also about to go on inspection when he saw a soldier running wildly.
came and shouted: "There is an enemy situation at the south gate!"
Uzabu was shocked and shouted: "The whole army is following me to the south gate!"
He led a thousand soldiers to run along the street towards the South City Gate one mile away. On top of the city, Yang Rui saw a thousand enemy troops running from a distance. The enemy troops obviously reached the South City Gate faster than the Song army.
By closing the city gates, they failed.
At this time, it was no longer realistic to go to Dongcheng. Yang Rui made a decisive decision and shouted, "Brothers, come with me to stop the enemy!"
He only left 20 soldiers to protect the city, and the remaining 180 quickly gathered below the city.
More than a thousand puppet Qi troops came like a tide. The Song troops fired arrows together, and dense arrows were fired at the enemy troops. The enemy troops running in front fell down one after another. However, after all, the number of Song troops was too small, and the puppet Qi troops suffered casualties.
It was not heavy, and only dozens of people were hit by the arrow.
Uzabu yelled, "Kill him!"
A thousand soldiers surged forward. Yang Rui waved his spear and shouted: "Brothers, kill!"
One hundred and eighty Song army scouts shouted and went to kill them. The scouts were all elite soldiers of the Song army, well-trained and highly skilled in martial arts. Although they were small in number, they were not at a disadvantage. They fought in a stalemate with a thousand enemy troops.
Seeing that two thousand more enemy troops were coming from behind, at this moment, the sound of horse hoofbeats sounded rapidly, and Gaoding took the lead and rushed into the city, followed by hundreds of cavalry.
Gao Ding saw the Jurchen general at a glance and shouted: "Leave the Jurchen enemy general to me, General Yang, get out of the way!"
Yang Rui and Wu Zabu fought for more than ten rounds, and it was quite difficult. His sword skills and arrow skills were sharp, but his spear skills were average. When Yang Rui was dying, he suddenly heard Gao Ding's shout. He showed a flaw.
, rolled on the spot, rushed into the enemy group, and gave up his position.
Uzabu also saw Gaoding rushing towards him, roared, and swung his long-handled copper hammer to hit him head on.
The high-definition spear was picked up, and with one move, Uzabu smashed it into the air. His body swayed on the horse. Just as he was about to stabilize his body, he felt a pain in his throat, and the sharp spear point had pierced his chest.
neck.
Gao Ding threw away the body and waved his spear, "Brothers, kill!"
Three thousand cavalry rushed into the city and attacked the enemy. The puppet Qi army was so frightened that they turned around and fled. Seeing that they could not escape, they all knelt down and surrendered.
Although there were some twists and turns, as long as the Song cavalry entered the city, the rest would be a battle to seize the city without any suspense. The Jurchen leader Uzabu was stabbed to death by Gaoding, and several low-level Jurchen generals were also killed.
Five thousand soldiers were killed, hundreds of them were killed, and the rest all surrendered and became prisoners of the Song army.
