He Batsheng received Yuwen Xin's flying pigeon message early in the morning, saying that he had completed the agreement with himself, and successfully killed Yuwen Hu to give up the entire Chang'an, so He Batsheng ordered the whole army to be on guard, and shot Zhao An's surrender letter to the city, asking the emperor, courtiers and people in the city to surrender consciously, so as not to be ruined. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Yuwen Hu's staff Xie Sichun and Cui Meng were the first batch to escape from the city after disguise, thinking that the fall of Yuwen Hu would be Gao Huan's liquidation immediately, Xie Sichun knew that he and Gao Huan had a deep feud for too long and was difficult to resolve, so he simply fled back to his hometown of Qinghe County, Sizhou with Cui Meng.

Some neutrals in the city took advantage of the situation to force the emperor to surrender for the sake of the soldiers and civilians in the city, and the royalists angrily denounced the behavior of these ungrateful traitors seeking glory. But with the surrender of the generals of the forbidden army, there are not many guards to defend the palace at this moment. The royalists also felt that the tide might have turned. Those who had long wanted to surrender boldly jumped out at this moment and wantonly stirred up the people in the city to rebel.

The entire south of Chang'an City has become a pot of porridge, many ordinary people have come out to smash and rob, and some people who fish in troubled waters have also taken the opportunity to join the ranks of robbing rich businessmen, in short, there is chaos in the city at this moment. He Batsheng signed to lead the elite division of 10,000 people into the south of Chang'an City, and the Western Wei guards at the south gate had already run out.

At this time, the north gate suddenly killed a group of men and horses, led by Yuan Xin's elite iron horseman, who came back from Jingzhou. The eyeliner beside the emperor had already told him about Yuwen Hu's stabbing death, and he was very sad and anxious, so he reached a reconciliation with Dugu Xin on the same day, and then withdrew his troops back to Chang'an. His aim was to keep the emperor. After a night of rapid marching, he finally arrived in Chang'an the next morning.

Seeing many homeless people and deserters along the way, Yuan Xin grabbed one of the deserters and asked, "Why did so many people flee out of the city?" What's going on in town? The deserter didn't dare not tell the truth, so he had to tell everything in the city, Yuan Xin nodded and said: "The enemy is in battle, the crime deserves death, drag it down and behead." Regardless of the deserter's screams of crying father and mother, he hurried to the north gate with the army.

At this moment, the people of Yuwen Xin in the city are fully armed to guard the Xiangguo Mansion to prevent some ill-intentioned people from smashing and looting, and Yuwen Hu's body is also gathered up and placed in the living room of the Warm Heart Pavilion. Although Mrs. Qinghua survived and did not die, she was now frightened by the events of last night and was incoherent. Yuwen Xin sent a maid to guard her in the mansion, which is an important witness.

The royalist civil and military ministers in the imperial city have gathered in front of the palace in official uniforms, the emperor Yuan Baoju is also six gods and no master at this moment, the palace guard commander Xu Guangda, Zhenguo general Cui Yuji, the servant Shi Sun Tai and others organized the remaining forbidden army and palace people to guard the four gates of the imperial city, although at this moment they also knew that Chang'an was definitely going to fall, but when Xu Guangda saw Yuan Xin's banner coming from the north gate, he couldn't help shouting: "Reinforcements are coming, our reinforcements are coming." Yuan Xin's men and horses occupied the northern half of Chang'an, and He Batsheng's troops occupied the southern half of the city one after another.

The two sides confronted each other on the Hengchi Road in front of the imperial city gate, and He Batsheng knew the role of Chang'an City, so he did not dare to increase his troops in vain, for fear of burning it to the ground and sighing. Yuan Xin also sent someone to negotiate with He Batsheng, saying that he was not here to grab the land, and hoped that he could give himself a little time. So the two armies temporarily ceased fighting, and Yuwen Xin escaped from Xiangguo's mansion at this time and went straight to He Basheng's camp.

He Batsheng looked at Yu Wenxin, who was kneeling on the ground, and didn't know what to say. Yu Wenxin also wiped his tears sadly, and peeked at He Batsheng from time to time. Sun Teng, who was beside He Batsheng, said softly: "Since Yuwen Hu is dead at this moment, we can return this matter to the king, and his troops should be on the way back at this moment." He Batsheng nodded and said: "The second brother is reasonable, but now there is another person in this city, Yuan Xin, but I don't know why he is here, does he want to defend himself in the city, or hijack the ingots and flee abroad?" ”

Yu Wenxin knelt on the ground and said: "The general is too careful, at this moment, I see that King Guangling himself is also weak-hearted, and he wants to surrender but is hindered by his identity, so I don't know what to do for a while." Hearing this, Sun Teng asked, "Oh, then do you have any way to get them out of the city and surrender?" "Everyone knows that in the entire Western Wei regime, except for Yuwen Hu, Yuan Xin has the most power and the highest position, and now that Yuwen Hu has been killed, Yuan Xin has naturally become the emperor's dependence, as long as he comes out and surrenders, the entire Western Wei Dynasty will be destroyed.

Yuwen Xin was not sure that he could convince Yuan Xin at all, but at this moment he looked confident, patted his chest and said: "Please rest assured that this matter will be handed over to the little one, and ensure that the task is completed, Yuan Xin will definitely take the emperor out of the city and surrender within two days." Sun Teng didn't know much about this Yuwen Xin, but he knew the status of this person in Xiangguo Mansion, so Sun Teng felt that he could believe what he said.

He Batsheng hesitated a little and said, "What if Yuan Xin refuses to surrender?" Yuwen Xin smiled when he heard this, only to hear him say: "This matter is simple, the villain will bring a few henchmen to go forward, and persuade him with good words and disadvantages, if he can obey the king's order, they will be happy, if he is obsessed, then this Yuwen Hu is his example." After that, there was a hint of fierceness in his eyes. He Batsheng nodded in agreement.

Yuwen Xin saw Yuan Xin in the palace, and he was also frowning at the moment, because the current intelligence showed that he had no chance of winning, outside the city was He Basheng's army of more than 200,000 people, and Gao Huan's men and horses were also on the way back, and it would not take a few days to kill back to Chang'an, and the prerequisite for him to make peace with Dugu Xin was that he returned to Chang'an to persuade the emperor to take the initiative to surrender Gao Huan, which Dugu Xin agreed to form an alliance with him after asking Gao Huan. So at the moment, he was actually worried about how to persuade the emperor to surrender voluntarily.

Yu Wenxin pulled him to a secluded place and said very anxiously: "Lord Wang, our days in Chang'an City are numbered, you have to hurry up and seize the opportunity." Yuan Xin didn't like him very much, and asked at this moment: "Why is your master dead, and you don't even have a little sadness, could it be that there is still your business here?" Yuan Xin's words broke the sky, which made Yu Wenxin's heart excited, and he stammered and stayed on the spot, who knew that Yuan Xin said casually: "You don't have to be afraid, even if this thing is really done by you, no one will care at this moment, who can take care of these trivial things now, now we are about to destroy the country, alas." ”

Yuwen Xin was stunned for a while, and then came back to his senses, and then said in a low voice: "What you said, Lord Wang, Yuwen Xiangguo is a trivial matter, at present, we should think about how to protect ourselves, after all, the army is coming to the city, and General He Basheng of the Eastern Wei Dynasty does not want the people in Chang'an City to be slaughtered, otherwise we would have already burned our jade." Yuan Xin asked curiously, "Why do you still know people from the Eastern Wei Dynasty?" The implication is that he has a route to negotiate with the Eastern Wei Dynasty. (To be continued.) )
