At this time, Shuhu stabbed Han, Hu Leming, U Ting Tuochi, and Shao Fangjie also surrounded Long, and Hu Leming said: "General Shi Mo, what to do now, I'm afraid Xinzhou won't be able to hold it." ”

Shi Mo Yanshan gritted his teeth and said sharply: "Hu Leming, don't shake the heart of the army, now there are more than 20,000 troops in the city, this is a defeat, and it is too early for Zhu to avoid it, you and U Ting Tuochi immediately go down to the city to resist the Song army entering the city, and we must drive them out of the city." The others followed me on the city wall, and we must not let the Song army move any further. ”

******************************

The Song army, who was fighting outside the city, couldn't help but cheer when they saw that the city gate had been breached, and now the overall situation was basically settled, and it was only a matter of time before Shinshu was completely occupied.

Yang Yan also breathed a sigh of relief, in fact, the Jin army was good at field cavalry warfare, and the ability to defend the city still could not be compared with the Song army. Moreover, there are many defenders of Xinzhou, and his most worrying thing is that the Jin army will line up outside the city of Xinzhou to fight a decisive battle with the Song army, and then use the cavalry army to make a roundabout exercise on both sides to contain the Song army. In this way, the advance can be attacked, the retreat can be defended, and it only takes a few days to hold on, and the reinforcements of the Jin army will arrive. It was not so easy for the Song army to capture Shinshu.

And once the turtle was in the city, the Jin army not only abandoned the long and used the short, but also turned its back on the tactics. The Song army's technical potential can also be fully exerted. As a result, the Song army was full of strength and soon attacked the city.

Yang Yan immediately ordered Zhang Shiyan to lead the army to support the Song army besieging the city, and sent an order to the Song army at the north and south gates, telling them that the west gate was opened by the scriptures, and let them immediately seize the attack, attack the three gates in one go, and completely occupy Xinzhou. At the same time, he ordered Liu Fuwu to prepare to lead the cavalry army to pursue the defeated soldiers of the Jin army.

At this time, Bi Zaiyu said on the side: "Yang Shuai, now that Xinzhou has been broken, it should be seen by the last general, it should be while the Jin army in Huizhou does not know that Xinzhou City has been broken." Immediately send troops to help Meng Tongzhi to take Huizhou, if Huizhou is captured in one fell swoop, you can immediately go east along the Yangtze River, advance by land and water, and take Jiankang directly. ”

Yang Yan nodded and said, "Bi Tongzhi is right, I think it will be up to you to work hard, and now immediately lead the troops to attack Huizhou." ”

After Bi Zai met the order. Immediately led 10,000 horses from his headquarters to attack Huizhou. Then Yang Yan ordered Liu Bao, who was stationed in the Jianchang army, to immediately send troops to take Chuzhou and Wenzhou, so as to establish a foothold for attacking Lin'an from the sea in the future.

At this time, Zhang Shiyan led his headquarters from the city gate into Xinzhou City. Ulemin and Utintochi also came down from the city wall, and the three thousand cavalry troops who had been prepared by the Jin army to rush out of the city were gathering at the gate of the city. Seeing this, Hu Le Ming and U Ting Tuochi did not care much, and immediately commanded the cavalry and rushed towards the Song army that entered the city, hoping to use the cavalry impact to resist the attack of the Song army.

But the two made a big mistake in a hurry. Because although the impact of the cavalry is strong, it must be in a vast and flat place to play a role, and in the narrow streets of the city, the advantages of the cavalry of the Jin army cannot be brought into play.

After Zhang Shiyan led the Song army into the city, he immediately spread rampant along the city wall. A part of the Song soldiers immediately advanced ten knife carts, lined up in front of the city gate, and quickly formed a defensive line to firmly guard the city gate, so as to ensure that the Song army behind them could enter the city smoothly. After the archers entered the city, they climbed onto the rooftops, each looking for a suitable position, seizing the favorable terrain and covering the infantry into the city to fight. After the other Song soldiers entered the city, they immediately quickly formed a combat team of more than ten people, cooperated with each other, and advanced from all streets to the city.

In terms of white-knuckle warfare under foot, the combat effectiveness of the Jin army is not stronger than that of the Song army, not to mention that street fighting is not good for the Jin army. The Jin soldiers in the city and Ben couldn't resist such a layered three-dimensional battle of the Song army, and they were killed and retreated. However, the cavalry of the Jin army seemed clumsy and sluggish at this time, but because they were riding on horses, the goal was obvious, and they became a burden, and they were killed by the Song army and fell off their horses. Moreover, a part of the Song army launched an attack on the city wall through the city to support the Song army attacking the city wall. The other part went to support the south gate and the north gate.

When Shi Mo Yanshan saw such a situation, he also knew that the general trend was irreversible, and if he hesitated, he would be surrounded by the Song army, and he would either be killed in battle or captured. Therefore, he had to order a retreat from the east gate.

Liu Fuwu led 5,000 horsemen through the city, chasing after him. The battle has been fought until now, and they have a chance to play, and everyone has gathered enough strength to chase the rear team of the Jin army, slashing and shooting arrows, chasing and killing the Jin army, and beating the water dogs. chased more than 30 miles in one breath before he stopped his steps.

Originally, there were nearly 15,000 men and horses in Shi Mo Yanshan and others who escaped from Xinzhou, but they were chased and intercepted by the Song army for a while, and only four or five thousand remnants of the army were defeated and defected to Quzhou.

At this time, the Song army completely occupied Shinshu with Yijing. Yang Yan sent horses into the city to deal with the aftermath. Although the capture of Shinshu was not a brilliant victory, it took only one day to break through the castle, which was extremely rare. Moreover, in this battle, the Song army beheaded nearly 10,000 people, captured as many as 4,000 Sheren, and captured more than 3,000 war horses and nearly 10,000 stone of grain. And the losses of the Song army were less than 3,000 people, and this victory was not small. At this time, Zhao Chen's first victory against Jin after succeeding to the throne should not be underestimated politically.

Two days later, Bi Zaiyu sent someone to deliver good news, and the Song army captured Huizhou with Jingjing. Immediately afterwards, Liu Bao also sent troops from the Jianchang army, captured Pucheng, and was continuing to attack Chuzhou.

At this time, Li Bao, who went to Jiangzhou to serve as the Jiangnan East Road Envoy, happened to pass through Xinzhou and came to see Yang Yan, first of all praised Yang Yan's victory in sending troops this time, and the two discussed the current situation again, thinking that it was now possible to implement the plan of marching by land and water, and at the same time agreed on the plan of marching, and then Li Bao resigned and went to Jiangzhou.

Yang Yan immediately ordered that Bi Zai meet Shouhuizhou, and Cao Xun Shouxinzhou. Gao Zhen went to Shoupu City. Divide the troops and firmly hold the important places on all sides. He immediately rushed to Guangzhou, met with Zhao Ruyu and Li Gongzuo, and discussed the plan to march from the sea.
