Emperor Sui Yang

Chapter 743 How can I betray my master?
Wei Kuangbo is a smart man. His family is about to get married to the East Palace, and he is already considered a princeling.

There was such a big commotion in the imperial city. For a person who has read all the history books, it is easy to guess that it was a mutiny.

Taking history as a guide, turmoil in the palace has always been a major event that broke the sky. In the Sui Dynasty, the only person who could break the sky was the prince.

Especially after he learned that Zhang Jin was storming the Rimen where Yang Zhiji was, he knew that the clan had made a choice.

There is no doubt that the clan only recognizes people with the surname Yang, so it is natural to guess that the prince is trying to force him into the palace.

He is a ruthless person, even his own father would attack him.

Wei Kuangbo knew that he was in the palace and the situation was unclear and he could not get involved, otherwise the guards of Zuo Beishen Mansion would deal with him, so the best way was not to come forward and send his followers to guard the door. If anyone comes to look for him, Just say that he is not here and has left the official office to preside over the situation.

If he didn't come forward, Wei Yongli wouldn't dare to make his own decisions.

So the people Yang Qing sent to look for him failed, but Pei Qantong was found.

Although this boy was promoted by Yang Guang, he was sent in by Pei Ju and secretly supported him, so he already received instructions from Pei Ju and knew exactly what to do.

Although this kid dared to kill the king in history, he was actually a very timid person. He also knew that he was taking huge risks by doing so, so after boarding the city gate, he shouted to Wei Yongli below:
"Where is the general?"

The general died. Wei Yongli shouted: "The general was attacked outside the guard station and died of serious injuries. He has died."

"How come the guards in Youbeishen Mansion were taken over by thieves? What do you do for food?" Pei Qantong was shocked and said: "Now there are changes in the palace, the situation is unclear, the general was killed by thieves again, and there is no one." I’m in charge of the overall situation, but I don’t dare to let you in.”

When Yang Qing heard this, he also sensed it. Since Jing Yuanheng is dead, there might be a ghost inside Beishen Mansion?Who can kill Jing Yuanheng in the imperial city?Could it be the group of people under the city wall?

Wei Yongli below was muttering in his heart, you are the general of Bei Shenfu, what are you doing to us? You are my boss, you expect me to make the decision?

"General Pei, we have the responsibility to protect you in Bei Shen Mansion. You have to let us in?" Wei Yongli shouted: "We are His Majesty's guards. What's going on if the guards don't protect His Majesty?"

Pei Qantong looked at Yang Qing with an embarrassed look on his face. Yang Qing pretended to be indifferent. I only have a few thousand people in the Prison Gate Mansion. How can you let tens of thousands of people in?If you do anything bad to His Majesty, I will be guilty of a great crime.

In this way, the wall and the wall were pulling against each other, one did not dare to attack, and the other did not dare to open the door.

It's already getting slightly brighter, it's late summer now, the days are long and the nights are short, and it's time for the court meeting.

In fact, the movement in Luoyang City has alerted all the officials, but they don't know what happened and have nowhere to ask.

Because every inner square is closed, there are no Wuhou guards patrolling. Only countless guards outside the inner square can be seen frantically heading towards the imperial city.

Since there was an accident in the palace, they must have gone. After all, no one was stopping them from going.

Gradually, under the protection of their own troops, the bosses of each family left the mansion and headed towards the imperial city to check the situation.

Only those with a escort dare to go, and those without a escort dare not go out.

Yang Xuangan was very nervous now. Under the protection of nearly a thousand Buqu, Xuangan's team met Pei Ju's team.

If it weren't for the lack of people under his command, Pei Ju would really like to take advantage of the chaos to deal with Xuangan, but he definitely can't do it now. The prince is doing something big, and many people in the Xuangan clan are contributing, so Xuangan can't be touched at this time.

He couldn't chew it either.

The streets were extremely crowded, because the big bosses of the Sui Dynasty all lived in Beicheng. At this time, they brought many people with them when they went out. The entire Beicheng was in chaos, which effectively blocked the support of the Yinshi Division to the imperial city.

Thick black smoke rushed into the sky like a black dragon, and half of the sky of Luoyang was shrouded in black mist.

Naturally, the large camps outside Luoyang City have also received the news, and larger-scale troop deployments are underway in full swing.

To the south are Yang Xuanzang and Pei Renji, to the north are Yujuluo and Yu Wenhuaji, to the west are Dou Kang and Dugu Wudu, and to the east are Hulao Yaojunsu and Xingyang Qututong.

Don't count on the army of more than [-] people in the east. They are too far away. When they rush back, the day lilies are cold. Needless to say, the fight in the north has already started.

Then what needs attention is Dou Kang and Dugu Wudu, but there is a big problem in this direction.

That is, it is difficult to enter the city. The entire structure of Luoyang is because Luoyang runs through it. The West City is also divided into two parts. The one to the north of Luoshui is the Ziwei Palace, and the one to the south of Luoshui is the West District of Luoyang, which is considered common people. district.

To the west of the Western District is the city wall, but there is no city gate. To the west of the imperial city is the Xiyuan with a radius of [-] kilometers, which is the Shanglin Garden of the Tang Dynasty. This is the royal garden, and Dou Kang is to the north of the Xiyuan.

Therefore, Dou Kang and Dugu Wudu could not enter from the west, so Dou Kang went north and planned to take the Xuanwu Gate, while Dugu Wudu went south and planned to take the Houzai Gate.

Around noon, the first batch of the vanguard cavalry from Dugu Wudu arrived at the foot of the city gate, and here, there were already countless large armies that could not enter the city.

Why can't we get in? Dugu Zuan has already taken care of Mai Tiezhang and Huangfu Wuyi, and the city defense is now in Dugu Zuan's hands.

Yu Zhongwen had already ordered a forcible attack on the city, but the problem came, this was Luoyang.

Yu Zhongwen, who had never thought that he would not be able to enter with the Tiger Talisman, did not bring any siege equipment at all. Isn't that a joke to attack Luoyang without siege equipment?
It is unrealistic to temporarily build some engineering ladders, because there is not even a big tree to be seen around Luoyang.

What to do? Use a sword or ax hand to cut off half of the thick iron-covered gate with a shield. It takes a lot of effort. Besides, huge rocks are being thrown down from the city wall, killing everyone. The corpses are almost covering the city gate. It's blocked.After Dugu Wudu arrived, Yang Xuanzang went to meet him in person.

He had to make sure that the other party was one of his own.

"Gong Yanshou has a tiger talisman, do you also have one?" Yang Xuanzang asked, riding his horse.

Dugu Wudu chuckled: "No, I have to say yes."

That means there is no more. Yang Xuanzong smiled and said: "You take care of him, and I will be responsible for holding down the army. It is more appropriate."

After saying that, Yang Xuanzang raised his chin towards where Yu Zhongwen was.

Dugu Wudu nodded: "After entering the city, let's not separate and act according to the situation."

Yang Xuanzang nodded slightly and led the people back to the headquarters.

After a while, the cavalry in the direction of Dugu Wudu suddenly galloped towards the Chinese army where Yu Zhongwen was, shouting that they were ordered to capture the traitor Yu Zhongwen.

At this time, Yang Xuanzang ordered his troops to stand still and gradually evacuate around Zhongwen.

Seeing this, Yu Zhongwen shouted angrily in the direction of Yang Xuanzang: "Yang Xuanzang, how can he betray his master when he eats the emperor's salary?"

The people he is leading now are all Yang Xuanzang's people, and they can no longer control it. With less than 500 guards around him, how can they withstand the impact of Dugu Wudu's army?

Not long after, Yu Zhongwen was captured alive, and the tiger talisman was snatched away by Dugu Wudu.

"The Dugu family is a relative of the emperor, and the seller seeks glory, which is shameful to the people of the world," Yu Zhongwen, who was tied up by Wu Hua Da, said viciously.

Dugu Wudu shouted: "How dare you, this general is your Majesty's cousin, who do you think you are? I've been ordered to arrest you for stealing the Tiger Talisman and committing rebellion. How can I allow you to confuse the public with your monstrous words? Come and take this sophistry into custody."

Then, Dugu Wudu raised the tiger talisman toward the city gate:

"For this purpose, open the city gate quickly."

Then the city gate opened. All the guards immediately felt that the Duke of Guzang County (Dugu Wudu) had obeyed the decree. Otherwise, why would the door be opened to him but not to Yu Zhongwen?

The mighty army began to pour into Luoyang City, heading towards Ziwei Palace.

As for Pei Renji, who was also in the south, he went through the Changxia Gate, but the city gate guard refused to open the door for him.

I didn't want to go in without opening the gate, so Pei Renji's army just stayed outside the city with nothing to do.

One disadvantage of fighting one's own people is that one doesn't want to fight them.

Many of them were brothers who fought together in the Goguryeo and Northern expeditions. Now the swords are red, the blood is flowing like rivers, and the swords are sharpened.

Yang Xuanting's side was almost unable to hold it anymore. Fortunately, from the direction of the East Palace, Wei Siyan, Li Xiaogong, and Gao Zhan led the main force of the left and right guards and arrived in time, and the decline was gradually restored.

It was daytime now, and everyone could see clearly who they were fighting.

Are they the left and right guards of the East Palace?Are we at war with the prince?What's going on?
Dou Kang, who rushed over, was also confused. How could he and his own people be so virtuous?Corpses everywhere, fighting in the nest?

He wanted to make peace, but both parties refused to listen to him and continued.

When Dou Gan saw this situation, he knew that something was wrong. Yu Juluo was His Majesty's man and he was fighting against the East Palace. How could this be an internal fight between them, instead of an internal fight between the emperor and his son?
The prince's soldiers and horses were close to the city wall, which meant that the prince had already entered.

Seeing that the fighting between the two sides is slowly coming down, Dou Gan doesn't stop him. You can't take action yourself, right?
Yujuluo, who was still in charge of the army and constantly urged the attack, knew that if he could not attack this time, he would not be able to save his head. However, the soldiers under his command clearly did not want to fight, which was at this unfavorable moment.

Zuo Yiwei's main force is coming, who is it?Changsun Chang and Guo Jingshan.

These two people are helping Yu Juluo.

After Yang Xuanting discovered the enemy's situation, he cried out that it was over. Zuo Yiwei was such a trump card that he couldn't do it.

"Bring me Yu Wenhua and that idiot. Whether he is one of our own depends on this time," Yang Xuanting said to his subordinates.

Huaji, who was detained at the foot of the city wall, was overjoyed after learning the situation, because he knew that this was his best opportunity to be loyal.

The general of Zuo Yiwei is Yu Wenhuaji, and the two generals are Yinshishi and Dong Chun. If Huaji comes forward, Changsun Chang and Guo Jingshan will not be able to become the leader of Zuo Yiwei.

The two of them have too many of Yu Wenshu's old subordinates.

The reason why Xuanting was willing to take the risk and give it a try was because he knew that the two thousand Zuoyiwei under Huaji were killed by Yu Juluo, so the two were not the same thing.
