The neat and well-equipped five thousand soldiers were marching urgently.

Due to the tense situation earlier, Liu Fa's Ministry, who was deployed on the border of the Song and Liao dynasties, received an order from the General Gao Fangping, an agent of the Propaganda and Pacification, sent troops from Hejian Prefecture and rushed to Cangzhou day and night in a cavalry manner.

Xu Ning's personality is completely opposite to Liu Fa. He looks a bit like a bureaucrat and has basically no hostility. However, Liu Fa's strong hostility is a powder keg. From the order to transfer the army, Gao Fang's point of Liu Fa instead of Xu Ning can tell that this trip to Cangzhou is definitely not an ordinary task. It is estimated that it is really necessary to fight, so he ordered Liu Fa to kill people instead of Xu Ning to scare people.

According to the order, General Liu Fa entered Cangzhou late at night, and it was still a while before the rooster was announced.

The cities at night are closed, but according to Gao Fangping's order, the local defenders must be attacked and the time to prepare and leak information cannot be given to the local defenders.

So General Liu Fa ordered the "Tiger Special Assault War" to attack Cangzhou City for the first time.

The prototype of this special assault tactic was first proposed based on the title of the four girls under Hutouyu. After fermenting over the years, it has gradually matured.

There was no need to be a large number of people, no need to kill people. Although Gao Fangping predicted that the defenders and the police in Cangzhou had been corrupt, there was still no big noise on the political level. So the contingent relied on advanced equipment and did not kill people after raiding the city for a short time. He put a knife on the necks of the dozing defenders like bandits, showed their waist cards, and held them hostage and opened the city gate.

In other words, late at night without warning, one of the elite imperial guards drove into Cangzhou and took over all defense and government affairs. All the state governments, including the state government, lost their rights. The Xuanfu Department announced that the civil service system here was no longer trusted and included in the curfew. They were not allowed to move around, go out, and wait for investigation.

The commander and the shipment envoy did not have the civil power. Just like Gao Fangping, who presided over the Battle of Song and Xia at that time, only had military and financial power, but the right to manage the people was still in the hands of Zhang Weiyi and the prefects. However, as the emperor's special envoy, Xuanfu Envoy, he had this right.

So Cangzhou was really taken over in an instant.

In addition to the local army in Cangzhou that was restricted to the internal curfew of the military camps according to the orders of the Xuanfu Department, Liu Fashuai's main lineup surrounded Chaijiazhuang as quickly as possible.

The generals under his command felt very stressed. They looked up at the huge scale of Chaijiazhuang and the archway that was like a sect god with the inscription of Emperor Taizu, and hesitated and dared not take action.

"Don't hesitate. This general's order has been issued. The so-called "catching thieves must be dirty. Once the action is not good, if the time difference is used by the thieves, we will be dangerous if they destroy the ulterior motives within them. Therefore, we must be quick, ruthless and accurate, attack strongly, and control the situation as soon as possible."

As a ruthless man who had committed a city massacre in history, General Liu Fa explained so.

"But Emperor Taizu's...General, where did the military order come from this time? Our behavior can basically be compared with rebellion."

It was of course a secret to sending troops to Cangzhou earlier, and his subordinates only listened to Liu Fa's orders. However, after entering Cangzhou, they would not talk about bullying the local army. Suddenly, they surrounded the Chai family and said they wanted to attack the thieves. Therefore, many military leaders had doubts.

Liu Fadao: "It is the action authorized by Gao Fangping, the Minister of the Central Secretariat of the Great Song Dynasty, the Grand Secretary of the Zizheng Hall, and the Northern Agent Xuanfu Envoy. What are you so bad guys who dare not? As soldiers, just follow the orders of the imperial court. When Gao Xiang is authorized by Gao Xiang, the orders of Xuanfu Envoy represent the will of the court and the emperor. Besides, the Chai family is just a paper tiger, what's the terrible thing? This is not the first time Gao Xiang confronts them. Gao Xiang was a county-level Yongle Army military army, but he still made the Chai family lose its temper. Chai Jihui is still locked in the Ministry of Justice. Who do you see the sky falling? Even if it really collapses, Gao Xiang will be afraid of a bird."

"Order. Raid Chaijiazhuang immediately, and no preparation time is allowed. In principle, the purpose of the action is for control, but after entering, you need to indicate your identity. If you encounter resistance, you can fight back with limited risk. If your soldiers in our army suffer casualties, it will automatically upgrade to a military riot operation with no death indicators. It should be noted that you protect yourself. The opponent is a wolf. Fifty military spies from Bi Shijing's army have died in Cangzhou."

The ruthless man Liu Fa issued the final combat order...

After receiving Gao Fangping's order, the elite troops in the wings drove into Hedong from Zhending Prefecture to deter him and cooperated with Zong Ze to implement an internal curfew in the Hedong Army.

However, as a link of long-term fishing, the entire Hedong Army was lifted from its defense rights and restricted to the military camp. However, the only way to move the Pinghai Army stationed in Xiangzhou was left.

So in theory, the Pinghai Army led by Hu Yanqing can march arbitrarily within Xiangzhou without having to report it specifically.

The underlings of the Pinghai Army were in great trouble. Strictly speaking, although they were imperial guards, they were not elite troops and were usually pampered. However, this time, Hu Yanqing suddenly issued an order saying that he would conduct a three-day outdoor training.

So we cried and shouted, and everyone rolled the bed and started marching in a hurry.

The direction of the march was infinitely close to the jurisdiction of Daming Prefecture and moving towards the mouth of Jianhe River.

After all, it was the imperial army, and someone would lose his head when there was a problem. So when it approached Jianhekou, many commanders felt that it was wrong. When they headed to the Hebei Road, the so-called training marching became increasingly wrong.

So the three commanders clasped their fists together and said, "General Huyan, we cannot move forward. Let alone leave Hedong and enter He1 North. Even in Hedong, we can only march in the boundary of Xiangzhou. If we move forward, we will lose our heads when we are seen."

At this point, Hu Yanqing, who was burly, laughed and said, "It was a secret before. In fact, our mission on this trip was to capture the traitors. We just needed to snipe a group of traitors in the mouth of Jianhekou."

The two commanders frowned and said, "The army in Hedong will enter Hebei Road to get thieves? This seems to be a bit unreasonable?"

Hu Yanqing cursed: "What does it make sense? There are so many rules? As long as there are orders, you can act. This is what the above is considering. Although this matter is not common in the army, it is understandable. Perhaps there are serious problems in the Hebei Route Army Group and is no longer trusted by the senior management of the Privy Council?"

"I have no intention of offending you. I would like to ask who is going to take this time? Is it an action authorized by the yamen?" many commanders asked together.

Similar military assassinations also occur in later generations. Of course, it is not possible to announce who is going to snipe, because after knowing who is going to snipe, it will really lead to the operation of the army running away.

"I don't know who the thief I want to take, but the order is an order. This action is confidential and has been authorized by the senior officials of the Privy Council." As he said that, Hu Yanqing really took out a document in his hand, which was indeed the document of the Privy Council.

So my subordinates strongly requested: to review the authorization documents.

Hu Yanqing felt that these people were useless, so timid and had no responsibility at all, how to accomplish great things. However, it was useless to scold them. They just had to look at the authorization document. They dared not enter the Hebei territory.

They are imperial guards, and the troops trained by Gao Qiu are so virtuous, inaction, extremely timid, safety first, and do not like to cause trouble.

Because Gao Qiu, who only knows how to show off, just asks them: I don’t ask you to do great things, I will give you more cleverness, and it will be a credit for less trouble for me.

Since you are so stable, you will be promoted after a period of time. Who likes to do things?

So in desperation, Hu Yanqing had to hand over the orders of the Privy Council to them for review. There was really no way. Without the order, Hu Yan knew the nature of these traitors too well. They would definitely cover their stomachs and say they wanted to shit, and then use the urine escape method as deserter.

How could there be deserters under Gao Qiu's command? So even if it really happens, these people cannot be dealt with. Gao Qiu will come out to maintain stability and make big things smaller. Because there is a reason: this is inconsistent with the court system and is inconsistent with the requirements of the Palace Shuai Ye.

Yes, this is how the army minister Gao Qiu Lao Er manages the army. The Song Dynasty army has no combat power but is loyal because there are many people like Gao Qiu Lao Er. The establishment faction has such virtues.

Under this circumstance, many of the top small military leaders came to review the documents. It was indeed the documents of the Privy Council, it was indeed the authorized by the senior officials of the Privy Council, and it was the operation authorized by the Privy Council Master Zheng Juzhong, the command of the Song Dynasty.

In principle, if there are civil officials in the establishment who are present to supervise the military, they will find that such documents usually require the authorization of the Privy Council to forward, rather than the Privy Council's orders.

Unfortunately, these people are rough and do not understand the political details of the Song Dynasty. The Privy Council is basically the same as the Privy Council’s official position, a political director and a secretary general.

In addition, everyone has an impression that the opening from Cangzhou to Hedong for defense was authorized by Master Zheng Juzhong, and nothing happened. When Beijing was in exchange for tickets, the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Bud approved it. Everyone understands that in the current political situation, Zheng Juzhong is basically in charge of the daily work of the Privy Council. After all, the signing of the Privy Council is vacant.

The deepest impression of these soldiers who are mixed with each other is that Zhang Shuye signed the Privy Council for a long time, so almost all such documents were signed and executed by Zhang Shuye. Zhang Shuye is now a military prime minister, so of course he can't be busy with such trivial matters, so Zheng Juzhong is responsible for it.

So finally these guys agreed to continue the march and headed to Jianhekou to get the thieves, hoping to complete the task quickly and go back to Xiangzhou to barbecue. What a hard work of Laozi's training is really hard.

When we arrived at the mouth of Jianhe, a large ship happened to stop moving forward in the middle of the night due to obstruction on the river. It looked obviously an official ship, but no flag was hung.

"This is our goal. I will pass on the general's order and start attacking, and use the Shenwu cannon to sank the pirate ship that the Great Song Dynasty traitors were riding."

When Hu Yanqing saw that he was not wasting his skills, he felt that Gao Fangping was dead this time, and my Hu Yan family's grievances could be repaid.
