Capturing the thief first is a irrefutable tactic in any dynasty.

Compared to collapse of the city gate, it is obviously much more meaningful to assassinate the Yuan army leader.

The city gate was broken, and the robes outside the city still had to risk their lives to rush into the city.

Killing this Yuan army chief was enough to make the Yuan army in the city lose its footsteps.

In fact, the Yuan army was indeed panicked.

They had just been gathered by the Lord and were about to set up defenses in the city.

But in the blink of an eye, the main general died.

He is dead, who will take charge of the overall situation?

The establishment of the Yuan army was not like that of the Song army.

Their chief general has absolute authority in the army. Although they also have deputy generals, etc., it is almost equivalent to an air rank, just to supervise the chief general.

Not to mention whether there is such prestige in the army, just in terms of leading troops to fight, he may also be a layman.

As for those generals, most of them can only control their subordinates.

With the death of the main general, there was a panic shout, "General is dead! General is dead!"

A group of low-level generals in the army looked at each other and looked at each other.

The deputy general and the military supervisor were even more disdainful.

In the army, the only one who is truly capable of commanding the battle is this fallen general.

The originally neat horse formation gradually became a little scattered.

The Yuan army was at a loss.

And on the top of the city, artillery fire was still spreading.

Under the city, a shell landed outside the city gate.

With a loud bang, the city gates were blown up in pieces.

Countless people behind the Yuan army turned around and looked even more panicked when they saw this scene.

"The Song army is coming in!"

"The Song army is coming in!"

I don't know how many people are shouting.

These Yuan troops who lost their chief general became even more panicked and then scattered in birds and beasts.

They hurried along the streets toward the depths of the city.

Of course, I no longer care about finding the Wuding Hall worshipers who assassinated their chief generals.

In just a few minutes, the sound of cannons on the city wall stopped.

The sound of killing outside the field was shocking.

In less than ten minutes, the Song Dynasty imperial guards appeared outside the city gate corridor.

They rode their horses and carried the Shenlong gun, and rushed into the city like a rainbow.

In the air, those hot air balloons spewed by flames also spread over the city.

Afterwards, guns and cannons were chaotic in the city.

The Tianfan Army and the Luzhou garrison soldiers cleaned up the disintegrated Yuan army in the city.

The war did not end until it was almost dawn.

There were 5,000 defenders in Shangluo Mansion, and more than 3,000 were killed.

In just under two thousand people, most of them were captured.

Zhang Guangbao and Yuan Kangbo led their personal soldiers to take down the government office, but the government office was empty at this time.

They did not send troops to chase after him. While asking the soldiers to clean the battlefield, they only sent people to the top of the city and the government office to hang the Song Dynasty flag.

Two flags fluttered in Shangluo Mansion.

At this time, Batong led the Tiangui Army soldiers to join Shangluo Town and Liangjingshan and rushed towards Luonan County.

Just after taking down Luonan County, the entire Shangzhou territory would be trapped in the hands of the soldiers of the Song Dynasty.

In Jingzhao Prefecture, Qianyou Town.

Shi Kaiji led the Tianshen, Tianmeng, Tianchuang, Tianqiao, and Chengdu Prefecture Garage Army, and the Chongqing Prefecture Garage Army gathered here.

This made the mere Qianyou Town gather in 80,000 soldiers of the Song Dynasty.

In fact, such troops are not impossible to try to attack Jingzhao Prefecture.

But Shi Kaiji did not do so.

After five days of reaching here, he did not even send out a soldier or a soldier.

At this time, in his commander's tent, Wang Dagang, Wei Feiying and other military chiefs, vice presidents, and Du Yuhou were gathered.

Shi Kaiji just routinely asked the soldiers in the army how they were doing.

After Wang Dagang and others reported their own reports, Wang Dagang couldn't help but ask, "Marson, when are you planning to send troops to Jingzhao Mansion?"

Shi Kaiji just chuckled and said, "Why are you in a hurry to take down Jingzhao Mansion like this?"

Wang Dagang said: "If we delay, the Yuan army gathered in Jingzhao Prefecture will only be more, and the preparations will only be more sufficient! Wouldn't we lose many soldiers in vain at that time?"

Shi Kaiji shook his head gently, "The emperor asked us to make steady progress and develop the base first, which is to determine that the Yuan Dynasty would not consume our Song Dynasty.

There is no rush to take the matter of Jingzhao Mansion.

By the time Deputy General Zhang led his army to capture Shangzhou and Guozhou, our territory on Jingzhaofu Road would be similar to that of the Yuan army.

If we don’t hit them then, they will find a way to hit them.

Fighters may also appear.”

"What if there were no fighter planes?"

Wang Dagang asked again.

Shi Kaiji said: "Can't our more than 100,000 troops still deal with the Yuan army?"

Wang Dagang was stunned and didn't say anything.

So are the other generals.

Although they were eager to destroy the Yuan Dynasty, they also understood the plans of Zhao Dongting, Shi Kaiji and others.

The emperor, what you are seeking is stability.

Shi Kaiji said again: "Remember to pass on the order. The soldiers in the army shall not take a grain of the people and shall not bully any people. Violators shall be dealt with by military law!"

"The last general will receive the order!"

All the generals in the tent handed over.

Two more days have passed.

Batong led the Tiangui Army outside Deluonan County.

Although it was just a soldier of less than 10,000 in Tiangui Army, it still looked crowded.

This made all the defenders in Luonan County panic.

After the army was pressing outside the city, the Yuan Dynasty officials and defenders in the city chose to surrender.

Batong led his army into Luonan County.

Afterwards, two thousand light cavalry were sent south to Huangchuan Town.

In the evening of that day, the two thousand light cavalry also successfully captured Huangchuan.

At this point, the entire Shangzhou area was captured by Tiangui, Tianbao and the Luzhou garrison.

The next day.

Batumi sent a letter to send a message to Zhang Guangbao and led his army to the east.

Hurry to Guozhou.

At this time, Xiao Yulin also approached the outside of Nanyang City from Rangdong.

After Dengzhou removed the main palace Rangcheng, there were only two county towns, namely Nanyang on the east side and Neixiang on the northwest.

The spread of war has long been spread here.

Xiao Yulin was leading the army and before he could reach Nanyang City, he saw a few fleeing people on the official road.

Most of them are dusty.

The reason why there are only such a few refugees here is undoubtedly that most people choose to flee to the north.

Xiao Yulin rode a high-headed horse in the army. Seeing the refugees ahead taking them to both sides of the road, lowering his head and smiling.
