Chapter 349: Jiangdu Mutiny (3)
Seeing that Yuwen Chengdu led hundreds of cavalry to rush ahead, and had separated from the infantry brigade behind him for dozens of steps, Yuan Li couldn't help but sneer, and ordered loudly: "The left and right cavalry break in and cut off the enemy army!"
"Boom! Knock knock! Boom! Knock knock! ”
A rapid war drum sounded immediately, and a cavalry team of more than 1,000 people shouted from the woods on both sides, and they quickly broke into the gap behind the cavalry led by Yuwen Chengdu, dividing Yuwen Chengdu's team into two.
Yuwen Chengdu was shocked, turned around and looked, he couldn't help but be angry for a while, his rear had been cut off by the enemy, and he couldn't return, and the woods on both sides were still shouting and killing, and the enemy's ambushes were still rushing out of the woods, and they had surrounded the infantry team in their rear.
Moreover, the enemy forces were strong, and the morale of the officers and men in their rear had been greatly lost, and signs of chaotic rout began to appear.
"Kill!"
The matter has come to this point, there is no way forward, Yuwen Chengdu roared angrily, waved the phoenix wings gilt boring, and urged the horse to kill again.
Yuwen Chengdu urged the horse to rush forward all the way to kill, a 300-pound phoenix wing gilt boring was made by him to fly like the wind, extremely fast, the enemy soldiers were injured when touched, and they were killed.
For a time, he seemed to be like a god descending to earth, holding a phoenix winged gilt boring left and right to kill, no one was invincible, no one could stop, where the gold boring reached, the enemy's soldiers were broken and rotten, their limbs were broken, and the enemy corpses around them were all over, and the flesh and blood were flying.
At this time, his armor was already stained with the bright red of the enemy, like red ink bleaching, bright red from top to bottom.
Holding a gilt boring and wearing bloody armor, Yuwen Chengdu was unstoppable all the way, as if Shura was alive, murderous.
Seeing that Yuwen Chengdu was so brave, Yuan Li couldn't help but slow down the speed of the war horse and retreated into his own personal army, and at the same time he was ruthless, and mobilized 3,000 soldiers to besiege him, vowing to exhaust Yuwen Chengdu to death.
As time passed, Yuwen Chengdu's subordinates died, wounded, and most of the rest surrendered on their knees, and his personal general Liu Tiezhu was also unable to defend, was beheaded by the enemy, and died in the chaos.
Yuwen Chengdu waved a gilt boring, smashed down an enemy general, and quickly scanned the surroundings while taking advantage of the gap, only to find that there was no one around him, but thousands of enemy troops were like copper walls, surrounding themselves layer by layer.
He was already sleepy, and knew that he could no longer rush out, but the gilded boring in his hand waved again and again, and in a moment more than a dozen enemy soldiers were killed and wounded and fell to the ground, and for a while, the enemy soldiers were frightened by his bravery, and retreated again and again, not daring to enter the reach of his boring blade again.
Yuwen Chengdu was stationed on the horse at this time, no longer attacking, his eyes were round, he coldly contempt for the enemy troops around him, and shouted: "Let Yuan Li come to see me!"
Yuan Li, who was being guarded by hundreds of personal soldiers, did not dare to step forward, he smiled dozens of steps away: "General Yuwen, if you are willing to surrender, I will protect you for the glory and wealth of your life!"
Yuwen Chengdu raised the phoenix wings gilt boring and pointed at him, and said hatefully: "Yuanli, His Majesty treats you well, why do you want to rebel and kill the king?"
"Shut up!"
Yuanli shouted angrily and said sharply: "Yuwen Chengdu, I don't need you to teach me a lesson!"
"Yang Guang is so happy, brutal and incompetent, he is a lone husband, a tyrant, and only a stubborn person like you will be foolish and loyal to him!"
"The millions of rivers and mountains of the Great Sui were so prosperous and rich at the beginning, but now they are full of rebellions and wars, and everything in the Great Sui is ruined in the hands of that single husband!"
"How many families in the world have been ruined, and how many wives have been separated? Looking around, thousands of miles of white bones paved the way, I don't know how many people died because of him, shouldn't he pay the price for the thousands of people who died? ”
"I, Yuanli, will overthrow that single husband today, establish the emperor's grandson as the emperor, and revitalize the Great Sui River!"
Yuan Li's rebuttal was sonorous and powerful, but Yuwen Chengdu sneered: "It seems to be righteous and awe-inspiring, but who doesn't know that your Henan Yuan clan has taken refuge in the thief Li Yuan!" You obviously want to kill the king and rebel, so that your new master can ask for credit and reward! ”
Yuan Li's face suddenly sank, and he said sharply: "Surrounded by archers!"
A thousand cavalrymen quickly urged their horses forward, stretched their bows and arrows, and surrounded Yuwen Chengdu, Yuan Li stared at him and said coldly: "Yuwen Chengdu, I will give you one last chance, now dismount and surrender, I will spare your life!"
"Whew! You rebellious thief, what qualifications do you have for me to dismount and surrender! ”
Yuwen Chengdu smiled disdainfully, "I want my Yuwen Chengdu to dominate the world, invincible, but today I want to die in the hands of a villain like you, shame!" ”
Yuan Li was furious and said sharply: "Release the arrow!"
A thousand sharp arrows came out of the string in an instant, but it is a pity that Yuwen Chengdu was brave and peerless in martial arts, but he failed to fight on the battlefield and conquer foreign races, but today he will die tragically under the chaotic arrows.
Just when Yuwen Chengdu was ambushed by Yuanli, Yang Guang was walking around in the imperial study, anxiously waiting for Yuwen Chengdu's arrival.
In the past few days, he has made repeated moves, adjusting the positions of more than a dozen Praetorian Guard generals in succession, wanting to regain control of the Praetorian Guard, but unfortunately Yu Wenhua and others have become a general trend in the Praetorian Guard, and he only dares to adjust the generals below the captain level, which is useless.
At noon today, after receiving the news that Yu Wenhua was about to launch a mutiny and rebellion at night, he was greatly frightened.
However, while frightened, he sadly found that those famous generals on the battlefield in the past had been degraded by himself, and there was no one available by his side.
In desperation, he thought of his Tianbao general again, so he asked Dugusheng to arrange for someone to notify Yuwen Chengdu to lead the army into the palace to escort him.
When the sound of war drums came, Yang Guang's face changed, "Come on, go and see where the war drums are!" ”
Soon, the eunuch who went to inquire about the news ran back quickly, "Your Majesty, the sound of drums is coming from outside the south gate, and there is a fierce battle taking place a mile away from the south gate, and the two warring sides are the Tianbao general Yuwen Chengdu, and the tiger Benlang general Yuanli!" ”
Yang Guang's face suddenly changed greatly, and he was about to be angry and scold, but at this time, he saw Empress Xiao walking in with the support of the two palace maids, and immediately swallowed her anger back, and waved her hand to let the eunuch retreat.
Empress Xiao also let the palace maid retreat, pulled Yang Guang to sit down in front of the table, gently pressed his forehead on both sides, and said softly: "Your Majesty is angry!" The matter has come to this point, no matter how angry it is, it will not help, it will only be angry in the dragon body! ”
Yang Guang gently held his wife's jade wrist, sighed, and said, "Yuanli is also reversed, Yuwen Chengdu is being stopped by him outside the south gate, I am really helpless now!"
Yu this Chengdu is already his last hope, he originally thought that after Yuwen Chengdu led the army into the palace, he could rely on Yuwen Chengdu's bravery to quell the rebellion, but he didn't expect Yu Wenhua and others to be prepared and ambush Yuwen Chengdu directly outside the south gate.
