I will second Jomax. I've cleaned many houses over the years in preparation to prepping to paint to get a lot of the dirt and mildew/mold off the exterior and that, along with some household bleach are my go to cleaners.

I put a mix of Jomax, bleach and water in a pump up sprayer and spray a section, let it sit for a while and hose off with one of those little straight stream nozzles you can find at any big box store.

I've also use my pressure washer but if you want to avoid that, the above nozzle will work fine. If the dirt is stubborn, by all means use your brush to clean the surface.

I live down the block from a ball park and 1 1/2 blocks from the interstate so I know all about dirt being kicked up and finding its way to the house.
