One hundred thousand troops arrived at Jiexiu Military City. The terrain outside Jiexiu Military City was so narrow that it was impossible to camp. The Song Army had to station a camp ten miles away. This time, the Song Army did not take it lightly again. They surrounded the camp fence and set up heavy patrol posts.
The defenses are watertight and don't give the enemy any chance to make a sneak attack.
On the top of the city, Wanyan Tumi looked at the massive enemy camp in the distance with a very ugly face. Sun Liangji next to him said: "General, the Song army is camping like this. It is obvious that they are not prepared to fight quickly. I doubt that Chen Qing is
Use our military city as bait."
"What's the meaning?"
"The humble position means that the Song army wants to besiege the city and fight for reinforcements."
Wanyan Tumi immediately remembered that when they besieged Taiyuan, it was a typical siege for reinforcements. They besieged Taiyuan for nearly a year, and in the end they attracted all the Song troops on Hedong Road and destroyed them.
Wanyan Tumi felt a little relieved. If this was the case, the Song army would not attack Jiexiu County for a while. They dare not say that they would attract reinforcements from Taiyuan, but at least they would attract 10,000 cavalry from Qi County and destroy them.
"Be alert!"
Wanyan Tumi turned back to Sun Liangji and Ma Bo and said: "We must be fully vigilant no matter day or night, and we must not relax in the slightest!"
"As ordered!" They both bowed and replied.
In fact, the Jin soldiers did not completely trust the Han's auxiliary army. Although Wanyan Tumi asked Sun Liangji to be responsible for night vigilance, he still sent 300 Jurchen soldiers to participate in vigilance at night, led by a centurion.
At dusk, Sun Liangji came to Tang Qian's camp. Tang Qian now served as the commander, commanding five hundred soldiers, two hundred of whom were his elite scouts, and the other three hundred were Sun Liangji's trusted soldiers, who were handed over to Tang Qian to command.
.
At this time, Tang Qian happened to be chatting with three of his capitals. They were all from the same hometown of Sun Liangji and from Gaoling County, Jingzhao Prefecture. In fact, all three of them guessed Tang Qian's identity. He and his two hundred men knew at a glance that they were different.
Normally, everyone didn't say anything and were willing to obey Tang Qian's command.
Sun Liangji walked into the big tent, several people stood up, and the three of them said goodbye knowingly.
Sun Liangji looked at the disappearing figures of the three of them and said with a smile: "They are all my fellow villagers. They have followed me for many years and I can definitely trust them."
Tang Qian nodded, "I can also feel that they have actually guessed my identity."
"That's why I asked the three of them to follow you. If it were anyone else, I wouldn't worry."
Sun Liangji asked Tang Qian to sit down and sighed: "Wanyan Tumi came to me just now. In the evening, there will be a centurion commanding three hundred Jurchen soldiers to guard with us, and they are responsible for guarding the North City Gate. Things are a bit tricky.
!”
Tang Qian thought for a moment and said, "What's Ma Bo's attitude? Can you win over him?"
"He was originally a guard general in Hebei, and he was the first to surrender to the Jin soldiers. Then the Jin soldiers asked him to defend the city. The Jin soldiers continued to go south, and he led three thousand men to massacre the entire county. Basically, all the young men were killed, and all the women were killed.
He was humiliated all over, and it is said that he even spared a seven-year-old girl. Unless the king can forgive his evil deeds, this kind of person will never surrender to the Song army."
Tang Qian was immediately furious, "Is this his army?"
"Some are, some are new recruits."
Tang Qian walked a few steps with his hands behind his back and asked: "What do the Jurchens in the city like?"
"Women and wine, they used to go to Jiexiu Old Town, but now it's impossible."
Sun Liangji hesitated and said: "If the general needs wine, I still have some here. We specially brought Pingyao Shaojiu, a specialty product from Pingyao County."
Tang Qian nodded, it will be easier if you have wine.
At two o'clock in the morning, three hundred Jurchen soldiers gathered in the city to drink. Sun Liangji sent people to bring thirty jars of wine. He originally gave it to his men, but all of it was intercepted by the Jurchen army.
The soldiers of the Jurchen Army all know Pingyao Shaojiu, and they like the strength of the wine, so when they found out that these thirty jars of wine were actually Pingyao Shaojiu, the Jin soldiers couldn't help it. Regardless of military discipline, you drank bowl after bowl.
stand up.
In less than half an hour, all thirty jars of wine were drunk, and all the jars were thrown off the city wall. There was no way to verify it the next day.
Thirty jars of wine were tampered with, and before long, all the soldiers were so drunk that they fell into a coma.
When Sun Liangji got the news, he immediately transferred 500 soldiers to defend the south gate, leaving Tang Qian and his 500 men to guard the north gate.
Tang Qian sent soldiers to invite all three to the top of the city, and said to them frankly: "Let me tell you frankly, I am the scout of the Song Army to control Tang Qian. The king of the county will lead the army into the city tonight. If the three brothers do not want to
I won’t force you to cooperate, but I hope it won’t disrupt my actions.”
The three of them all looked at each other and bowed together: "We are willing to act together with the general!"
A Dutou said: "Actually, we have known for a long time that General Tang must be a general of the Western Army."
Another Dutou also said: "The Jin soldiers are drinking tonight, and we will know that the general is going to take action."
Tang Qian nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, let the three soldiers gather together to guard the South City Gate. You are not allowed to open the South City Gate under any circumstances. I will give you some more kerosene."
Three hundred soldiers gathered on both sides of the north city head. The main city gate in the middle was in charge of Tang Qian and two hundred men. Tang Qian ordered three torches to be lit.
Then the suspension bridge was lowered and the city gate creaked open.
The Song army had already ambushed 20,000 troops one mile outside the city, waiting for the signal from the city. Liu Qiong stared at the dark city in the distance. Suddenly, three fire spots appeared on the city, shaking across each other.
The signal has come.
Liu Qiong immediately ordered: "Attack!"
A gunpowder arrow flew into the sky, emitting a bright red flame. This was an order to attack. Liu Qiong led a thousand troops to attack quickly, followed closely by an army of 20,000 people in squares and squares. Each square was about two people.
Thousands of people, this is because the mountain road is narrow and cannot accommodate 20,000 people to attack at the same time.
The army rushed towards the city gate like a rising tide.
On the top of the city, three hundred sleeping Jurchen soldiers had their throats cut.
Sun Liangji also saw the Song army's gunpowder arrows. He immediately summoned all his generals and said to them: "The main force of the Song army has entered the city. If you don't want to die, quickly ask the soldiers to tie a white cloth strip around their necks."
The generals looked at each other, and Sun Liangji yelled, "Go quickly!"
Everyone hurriedly ran to notify the soldiers. At this time, the Song army had already entered the city, taking the lead in the Jurchens' camp, followed closely by Ma Bo's west camp.
The Jurchens had no chance to escape, and together with the general Wanyan Tumi, the entire Song army was killed."
A large number of soldiers from the Confederate Army gathered at the south city gate. They shouted for the city gate to be opened, but the city gate was closed tightly. Hundreds of people tried to rush to the top of the city, but unexpectedly, the upper city corridors on both sides burst into flames.
Force these soldiers back in panic.
As more and more troops entered the city, the situation in Jiexiu Military City was over, and soldiers began to surrender in droves. The soldiers dressed as General Ma Bo were also exposed, and were captured and tied up by Song soldiers.
At this time, 20,000 troops had completely controlled the Jiexiu military city. At this time, Chen Qing, escorted by thousands of cavalry, also entered the military city.
Tang Qian introduced Sun Liangji to Chen Qing. Sun Liangji knelt down on one knee and saluted, saying: "I am humble enough to see you, the king of the county!"
Chen Qing smiled slightly and said: "This time, General Sun not only abandoned the dark side and turned to the bright side, but also made great achievements. You will continue to serve as the commander and join the Fourth Army."
According to regulations, surrendered generals must attend a military academy for one year before being assigned. Generally, their military positions will be demoted. Only surrendered generals who have made great achievements will retain their original positions.
Sun Liangji was overjoyed and said, "Thank you so much for your support!"
He stood up and saluted Liu Qiong again. The commander of the Fourth Army was Liu Qiong, and Sun Liangji would be Liu Qiong's subordinate from now on.
At this time, a soldier pushed Ma Bo up. Ma Bo was forced to kneel on the ground. Chen Qing waved his hand and said, "Push him down and behead him!"
Ma Bo was so anxious that he shouted: "I was originally a Song general, but the Jin army was strong. Hundreds of thousands of Song soldiers surrendered to the Jin Kingdom. The court is incompetent. What does it have to do with us little people?"
Chen Qing said coldly: "Surrendering to the Kingdom of Jin is nothing. Many of my generals and civil servants have the experience of serving the Kingdom of Jin. I am not killing you because you surrendered to the Kingdom of Jin, but because you led the army to massacre eleven years ago."
During the annihilation of Ping'en County in Mingzhou, tens of thousands of people died under your butcher's knives. Not only will you die, but none of your men who participated in the massacre will survive."
