The night fades, the morning sun dews slightly, and the sky becomes brighter. On the square in front www.biquge.info of the Jinxiang Palace, 10,000 Heyang troops lined up on standby, and Yang Tingzhang trotted back and forth in front of the battle with a sword and a prancing horse, making the final pre-war mobilization speech.

Although Wei Renpu knew the strategy of the army, he repeatedly went out from the first emperor, but after all, he was a scholar, his face was full of worry at this time, and he looked up from time to time in the direction of Donghua Gate, where the battle was in full swing, and half of the palace and east and west classes in the palace were transferred there, and I don't know how long they could last. Wang Pu was calm and calm, and his face was calm.

"Wenbo! It's dawn, it's time to close the net! Don't let him be idle, let Li Chuyun hurry up from Liangmen Street! Wei Renpu said anxiously.

Wang Pu turned his head and glanced at Wei Renpu, his eyelids rolled and he said angrily: "What's the hurry!" Yang Guangyi and Shi Shouxin seem to be attacking at the right gate and Xuande gate, but they are actually early warning and defending, if Li Chuyun plays, Zhao Kuangyin will retreat to Wangchun Gate, what should I do at that time, is it really a mess of Tokyo City? ”

"But we can't delay it any longer, if Gao Huaide and Dong Zunzhi can't suppress the Crane Control Army, they won't be able to withstand the chaos over there!" Wei Renpu reminded.

Wang Pu pondered for a moment, sighed and said, "After all, the Crane Control Army is outside the city, and it won't be able to enter for a while. If the Iron Cavalry is let go, it will be a big trouble, wait a while, if Zhao Kuangyin does not enter the Donghua Gate, then he can only close the net, and he can't really issue an edict to him, let him fight Zhang Yongde and Li Chongjin, and he has to sit on his big crime of rebellion and rebellion, so that even if he escapes from the capital and goes to Songzhou, he will not be able to stand. ”

At this time, Yang Tingzhang came over on horseback and arched his hand on horseback: "The two ministers, the front division of the palace was founded by Emperor Taizu, with the small bottom army and the Tianxiong army as the backbone, of which most of the Tianxiong army was incorporated into the palace, and the small bottom army was incorporated into the iron cavalry army...... We can try to persuade you to surrender! ”

"Huh...... That's a good idea! When Wang Pu heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he was overjoyed: "Daoji! You stay here to lead the Heyang army to standby, and you and Wen Yu go to Donghuamen. ”

Unless you are a very prestigious general, it will not work at all. What's more, after six or seven years, it is not clear how many of the original veterans of the Xiaodi Army led the troops, but this can indeed be a try, because Yang Tingzhang was in the Xiaodi Army beside Taizu Guo Wei in his early years, and later Guo Rong went out of Zhenzhou, and Yang Shizhang led five hundred Xiaodi troops to follow.

Wang Pu thought of it, and immediately led a thousand steps out of Jinxiangdian Square with Yang Tingzhang, bypassed the Accumulation Hall under the pedestal, and rushed to Donghua Gate along the wide corridor of the palace. As soon as he walked halfway, he heard the shouts of Qi Qi from outside the imperial city, Wang Pu's face changed, and he almost thought that the city gate was lost, so he hurriedly ordered Wei Renpu to lead his troops to follow, and Yang Tingzhang ran forward with a thousand soldiers.

From afar, I saw the soldiers of the Iron Cavalry once again marching into the gate, fanning out at the entrance of the city gate, advancing step by step. Fortunately, the inner temple also kept increasing the troops, and the big sword and the royal horse were all sent over, and the two sides were already in close hands, and the battle was very fierce.

"The prince is here to supervise the war, go to the city to have a look!" Yang Shizhang hurriedly confessed, and quickly rushed to the city wall under the corridor to the head of the city, and looked out with the battlements in his hand, only to see that on the street of the imperial city more than 100 steps away from the city, it was densely packed with iron cavalry soldiers on standby, and a small force of two or three hundred and one teams kept climbing along the big wooden ladder, trying to attack the city.

Yang Tingzhang immediately retreated to the official room of the city tower guard, found a piece of white silk four or five feet long, waved the seven big characters of "Where is the Taizu Xiaodi Army", and ordered two personal soldiers to carry the banner with guns, and two hundred armor soldiers to guard with shields, and held high the banner of the word "Yang", and personally led this team of guards to the female wall at the head of the city and walked back and forth, shouting as they walked.

"Xiaodi army soldiers, Emperor Taizu treats you well, although the first emperor drove the crane to the west, but now he will still reuse you, don't do the pain of relatives, the enemy is fast, quickly withdraw the troops back to the camp, today is benevolent, the past is not to blame!"

Yang Tingzhang kept shouting, and the soldiers shouted in unison: "Withdraw the troops and return to the camp!" Forgive somebody's past misdeeds! ”

"My lord! That's Yang Tingzhang, isn't he in Heyang, will there be ambushes in the city? The general Liu Tingrang Gang won a small victory, and when he saw Yang Tingzhang's banner, he reacted immediately, and couldn't help but be surprised.

Zhao Kuangyin's face was cloudy, and he felt a little difficult to ride a tiger. This time, with the Iron Cavalry as the main force, the incident was hastily started, and many generals saw the mystery and went home on leave, Murong Yanzhao, Gao Huailiang and others did not come, and their generals also ran to the city gate station to deliberately hide, and there were already many fewer generals involved.

can continue to attack, for more than an hour, Zhao Kuangyin believes that he can still attack, but the key is that it is dawn, and the army's heart will be shaken after a long time.

Yang Tingzhang at the head of the city continued to agitate his lips and tongues, and after a few trips, the effect began to appear, and the soldiers who were still carrying the big wooden ladder to the city retreated without a military order, and they all talked about it, causing a commotion in the whole army.

It was night before, and many soldiers didn't know what was going on, but now that it was dawn, they found out that it was the imperial city that was attacked. Imperial City, for ordinary soldiers, it is an awe-inspiring existence from the bottom of their hearts, in the past, it was an unattainable place, but now they are waving their swords at each other, and they can't help but be a little afraid in their hearts.

In such a situation, another forced attack may cause the headquarters to defect, Zhao Kuangyin only felt that his mouth was dry, and he shouted with difficulty: "Order!" The front army continued to attack, and the rear army retreated to Wangchun Gate! ”

With Zhao Kuangyin's military order, the soldiers on Huangcheng Street and Donghua Gate Street began to retreat in an orderly manner, while the attack at the city gate became more intense. Yang Tingzhang couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw it in the city, and hurriedly reported it to Wang Pu and asked for instructions on what to do next.

Wang Pu got the report and immediately dispatched soldiers to give orders, but the places inside and outside the city were far away, and there were still some stragglers and small groups of troops who had lost their way around the streets of the inner city, and they were in a state of chaos inside and outside, but the guards at the inner and outer city gates were still stationed in their respective places, and those who did not receive the order did not run around.

Not long after, outside the Donghua Gate, Zhao Kuangyin's Chinese army began to retreat, just retreated from Huangcheng Street, Yang Tingzhang led the Heyang army in the city to follow the queue, and continued to wave banners to surrender, and there were many iron cavalry soldiers who did not have time to leave quietly approached.

Zhao Kuangyin's thousands of cavalry retreated to the intersection of Mahang Street and Panlou Street, and listened to the shouting and killing sound on the front street of Dongjiaolou, Shi Shouxin and Yang Guangyi retreated all the way, followed by the cavalry led by Li Chuyun and Zhao Yanhui of the Guards Division to rush along the street to cover the killing.

Liangmen Street and Panlou Street are connected, it is the main horizontal road in front of the imperial city, it is about five zhang wide like the Royal Street, the cavalry queue is unfolded, an echelon horizontal row can be lined up with a group of ten people, the cavalry rushes straight to occupy a street, and the surge is coming.

On Mahang Street, Yang Tingzhang led his troops to follow, if there were a few more fights, the general trend would be gone, and once they left Tokyo, the forbidden army did not know how many people could follow...... Zhao Kuangyin lamented in his heart, so he had to lead his troops to form a team at the street entrance, ready to fight.
