Just when Pei Shiju had just returned to the mansion to thank guests behind closed doors, the city gates of Yangzhou suddenly closed, and the five thousand troops in the city that Yu Wenzhi had prepared early were dispatched at the same time, rushed to some yamen, military camps and ministers' mansions and began to kill.
All of these people who were killed were people who Yuwen Zhiji believed were still loyal to Yang Guang, or might still be loyal to Yang Guang. Of course, some of them were people who had enmity with Yuwen's family before or with Yuwen Zhiji himself.
After killing a group of people, military control was implemented in Yangzhou City. The army took to the streets to enforce martial law and no one was allowed to leave their homes. People in Yangzhou City were panicked for a while, as if a catastrophe was about to come.
…
…
At the same time, Yuwen Zhiji personally led 20,000 troops to surround the entire Jiangdu Palace.
Most of the 30,000 Xiaoguo troops who were originally responsible for guarding Jiangdu Palace rebelled at the same time and became Yuwen Zhiji's accomplices.
Only Yuwen Chengdu used this day to try his best to gather more than 3,000 people who were still loyal to Yang Guang, and defended the inner palace to the death.
Yuwen Zhiji and his men frantically attacked the city. Seeing that Yuwen Chengdu's troops were constantly depleted, they could not hold on for long.
Fortunately, Yuwen Chengdu's side guarded the palace city, and the palace city was five feet tall. He kept shooting arrows from a high position, which also caused many casualties to the rebels. There were screams from both sides, and people kept falling to the ground.
Yuwen Chengdu's eyes were even redder. He wielded his gilded phoenix-winged hammer to strike arrows, and personally guarded the section of the city wall where the attack and defense was most intense. He killed no less than 300 rebels.
…
…
"Grandfather, please quickly evacuate with your grandson to Yangzhou City. Your grandson has already made a foolproof plan. At this time, General Huang Shaoqiu's army should be about to capture Yangzhou City." At the same time, Yang Tong in the palace urged Yang Guang to follow him by water.
Evacuate.
Jiangdu Palace is close to the Grand Canal, so Yuwen Zhiji naturally sent navy to block the waterway, but judging from Yang Tong's intention, there is no need to worry about the waterway at all.
But Yang Guang shook his head and said with a sad face: "Dong'er, hurry up and take people there! I won't go to Yangzhou City."
Yang Tong suddenly felt anxious, but no matter what he said, Yang Guang would not listen to him, because Yang Guang no longer wanted to live, and he did not want to live anymore. This was his last bit of dignity as an emperor.
…
Outside, the three people Yuwen Chengdu finally gathered together
When half of the thousand people died, the originally low morale of the defenders finally collapsed. Except for Yuwen Chengdu, all the remaining defenders who were still alive knelt down and surrendered. Some even opened the palace gate and the army rushed in.
.
Yuwen Chengdu was so shocked that he rushed to the gate of the palace alone and rushed towards the thousands of troops.
Yuwen Chengdu has always been known as the best master in the world, but since he became famous, he has followed Yang Guang and rarely takes action on the battlefield. Over the years, people in the world have forgotten his power as General Tianbao.
Yuwen Chengdu had always wanted to have a good fight on the battlefield, but the current scene satisfied his wish.
He waved his gold-plated phoenix wings and charged into the dense enemy group, slapping them to death, smashing their bodies to pieces, killing the rebels all around with corpses scattered everywhere, their flesh and blood flying everywhere, and the air was filled with red mist.
He actually blocked the time by blocking thousands of troops at the entrance of the palace.
Yuwen Zhiji got angry and shouted: "Come here, gather a thousand people to surround him. I don't believe you can't kill him."
Yuwen Chengdu had killed no less than five hundred people by himself at this time. Even standing still took a lot of energy, so he was almost exhausted at this time.
But the rebels surrounded him on all sides like an iron barrel. Even if Wang Junlin personally led the army to rescue him, they would at most avenge him and be unable to rescue him.
Yuwen Chengdu knew that he was doomed, but he wanted to delay for more time, so he yelled: "Yuwen Zhiji, you coward don't dare to come to see me?"
Yuwen Zhiji rode a horse and was protected by hundreds of personal guards. He came up from the rear of the army and sneered at Yuwen Chengdu from a few dozen steps away: "Yuwen Chengdu, you are the only one in the world who is still loyal to that foolish king. How can you do that?"
What a fool."
Yuwen Chengdu raised the gilded phoenix-winged boring machine, ignored Yuwen Zhiji's words, and shouted: "Yuwen Zhiji, your majesty treats you very well and even marries your daughter to you. As the emperor's consort of the Sui Dynasty, why do you think so?"
Want to rebel and kill the king?"
"So you are an idiot!" Yuwen Zhiji laughed so hard that tears of laughter flowed out. It took him a long time to stop laughing, and he said with a sarcastic face: "Yuwen Chengdu, you are just a martial artist who is beside Yang Guang.
He is just a vicious dog, and I am destined to be the emperor. How can you teach me a lesson? Besides, the magnificent country of the Sui Dynasty was destroyed in the hands of that foolish king. Many families were destroyed, wives and children were separated, and the country was
How many of the tens of millions of people in the Sui Dynasty are left now? The war has destroyed thousands of miles.
Bones pave the way, shouldn't that foolish king pay for the lives of thousands of people who died? Kill that foolish king, and let me, Yu Wenzhiji, become the emperor, and the country will be revitalized."
Yuwen Chengdu sneered: "You still want to be the emperor. I think your hard work is in vain, but you made a wedding dress for someone else."
What Yuwen Zhiji was most afraid of was that he finally succeeded in rebelling and killed Yang Guang, but ultimately lost to Wang Junlin or Li Yuan in the world competition. At this time, Yuwen Chengdu's words touched his sore spot, and his face suddenly became gloomy and he gritted his teeth.
He said: "Come here, gather a thousand archers and shoot at him. I can't kill him!"
Following Yuwen Zhiji's order, a thousand cavalry archers surrounded Yuwen Chengdu, all drawing their bows and aiming at him.
Yuwen Chengdu roared and rushed towards Yuwen Zhiji's direction. A thousand bows and arrows were fired at him. He could only knock away the arrows in front of him.
But there was no way to dodge or fly away from the sides or behind, because a thousand arrows covered one person and shot at the same time, leaving almost no space. He had nowhere to dodge. Although the gilded phoenix-winged drill in his hand had danced into a hot wheel,
But it can only block the front.
Soon, his back was filled with arrows, but he did not die immediately.
He roared, vomiting blood from his mouth, and continued to rush towards Yuwen Zhiji like a humanoid hedgehog.
"Kill!" Yuwen Chengdu finally rushed twenty steps in front of Yuwen Zhiji and tried his best to pull out the gilded phoenix-winged hammer in his hand. However, he himself fell to the ground and could not get up again.
The gilded phoenix-winged hammer was as fast as lightning. Yuwen Zhiji was so frightened that he screamed in surprise. Before he could dodge, the gilded-finished phoenix-winged hammer had already hit his horse's head, almost hitting him on his body.
With a "boom", the war horse's head shattered on the spot, splattering blood on Yuwen Zhiji's face, and making him turn pale with fright.
"I will cut him into pieces." Yu Wenzhi was very angry. With the support of his own soldiers, he was not crushed by the war horse.
Roaring angrily, Yuwen Zhiji came to the dead Yuwen Chengdu with a knife and chopped off his head with one knife. Still feeling uncomfortable, he chopped off his limbs and chopped more than a dozen times on his body before stopping.
Down.
It's a pity that Yuwen Chengdu had peerless martial arts skills, but he never had the opportunity to display his talent in his life. He died tragically under random arrows and was cut into pieces with random knives.
