Dugu Shun's carriage had just arrived in front of the mansion, but he saw that there were soldiers standing in front of the mansion, surrounding his mansion, Dugu Shun was shocked, what happened?

He hurriedly got off the carriage, and dozens of soldiers rushed up to surround him, only to see a person walking out of the mansion gate, it was Jingzhao County Cheng Guyi, Dugu Shun was extremely dissatisfied and said: "Gu County Cheng, what are you doing in my house?" ”

"I want to ask Dugu County Gong, what are you doing in Dou Mansion?" Gu Yi asked coldly.

"What I went to Dou Mansion to do has nothing to do with you, that's my private matter, I didn't violate the ban, and I didn't travel with three people, if Gujun Cheng wants to arrest me, it's best to find a glossy reason."

Gu Yi stared at him coldly, and after a while, he snorted, "Dugu Shun, let me warn you first, if you want to collude inside and outside to betray Chang'an and betray the Great Sui, as long as I catch a little evidence, I will not hesitate to kill you and show your head!" ”

Dugu Shun's face was gloomy, he didn't say a word, and Gu Yi waved his hand, "Let's go!" ”

He left Dugu Mansion with a large group of soldiers, and at this time, the housekeeper ran out to support Dugu Shun, "Master, it's okay!" ”

"I'm fine, I've seen a lot of this kind of scene, and a little county man dares to threaten the old man!"

Dugu Shun snorted disdainfully, walked quickly towards the mansion, he walked to the steps, and said to the housekeeper: "Go and find Qianfeng to see me!" ”

Dugu Shun returned to his study, sat down to write a letter, and after a while, a young man about thirty years old appeared at the door, bowed and saluted, "Is the head of the house looking for me?" ”

"Come in!"

The young man walked into the room, his name was Yu Qianfeng, he was the head of Dugu Shun's family, and his grandfather and father both worked for the Dugu family. Yu Qianfeng won Dugu Shun's trust, when the Fire Phoenix Xuanwu was not disbanded a few years ago, Yu Qianfeng was still Zhang Zhongjian's deputy, and his martial arts were very strong, he stood in front of Dugu Shun with his hands down, waiting for orders.

Then. After Dugu Shun finished writing the letter, but tore it up again, he pondered for a moment and asked, "Has the number of people watching outside increased?" ”

Yu Qianfeng nodded, "The number of people watching outside has increased significantly, and the dark whistle has become a bright whistle. ”

"Oh well! Wait until it's dark before going out. ”

Dugu Shun took out a jade pendant and handed it to him, "Tonight, you send me a message, go to General Qiu, show him my jade pendant, and he will understand." ”

Dugu Shun whispered a few words to him. Yu Qianfeng nodded again and again, "Don't worry, Qianfeng will definitely convey it." ”

Although the curfew is useful for the general public, it has little meaning for those who are good at flying eaves and walking on walls, and who are strong in martial arts, although there are more than a hundred soldiers watching outside Dugu Mansion, Yu Qianfeng still left Dugu Mansion silently under the cover of night.

At present, there are still 30,000 defenders in Chang'an City. It was led by General Zuo Yiwei, the Yin Division, although the Yin Division was responsible for Qu Tutong's surrender to Li Yuan. However, the Yin Shishi himself was loyal to the Sui Dynasty, and he was determined to defend the city, which brought great trouble to Li Yuan's siege, and Li Yuan's army suffered heavy casualties and was never able to capture Chang'an City.

There were eight generals under the Yin Shi Division, each leading 3,000 men to guard a city gate. Among them, the general who guarded the Chunming Gate was called Qiu Shili, the son of Qiu He, the former general of Zuowuhou, Qiu He was implicated in Yang Xuangan's rebellion and was demoted to Jiaozhi Taishou, but Yang Guang did not pursue the crimes of Qiu and his family.

The eldest son, Qiu Shili, continued to serve as a general in Chang'an. The second son, Qiu Xinggong, also served in the army, and this time Qiu Shili was responsible for guarding the Chunming Gate and defeated several sieges of Li Yuan's army in a row.

At night, Li Yuan's army stopped attacking the city, because Li Yuan's army was not trained in night fighting, so it suffered heavy casualties in the night siege a few days ago, and even the besieging lord Sun Hua also died in the chaotic arrows, Li Yuan's heart was very painful, and he stopped the night siege since last night, so that the Sui army defending the city could breathe a long sigh of relief and rest at night.

In a big tent in the Chunming Gate, Qiu Shili has just returned from the main general Yin Shishi, and every night all the generals have to gather together to discuss the strategy of defending the city, find the deficiencies in defense, and solve the problem, although the Yin Shishi is relatively mean, and he does not have much combat experience, which makes everyone unhappy.

But Qiu Shili had to admit that the Yin Shishi had the talent to defend the city, and those who had never fought in a war actually defended the city without leaking, and used all kinds of strategies for defending the city in the war book.

Of course, this is also related to the low quality of the siege soldiers, the soldiers who are currently attacking the city are basically bandits from all walks of life in the original pass, and they were directly sent to attack the city after being absorbed by Li Yuan, but Li Yuan's own army of the state is hidden and not used, these siege bandits lack of training, and their combat ability is not high, so it is reasonable to suffer heavy casualties.

Qiu Shili sat down and took a sip of tea, when a personal soldier reported at the door of the tent: "General, there is someone outside asking to see you!" ”

"Who is it?"

"He said that he came from Wubenfang, and General Qiu should know."

Qiu Shili's mind turned, and he immediately understood that this was someone sent by Dugu Shun, and he hurriedly said, "Invite him in!" ”

Qiu Shili has a deep relationship with the Dugu family, his grandfather Qiu Shou is the confidant of the Northern Zhou Dynasty general Dugu Xin, and his father Qiu He was also recommended by the Dugu family to be promoted, and he was promoted step by step to the general of Zuo Wuhou, if it wasn't for Dugu Shun secretly trying to protect it, his father Qiu He would not have survived, and he and his brother were also protected by Dugu Shun to get rid of their crimes and continue to serve in the army.

So to a certain extent, the Qiu family is the generation of the Dugu family, if Dugu Shun has an order, Qiu Shili is absolutely obedient.

After a while, Yu Qianfeng walked into the big tent and bowed, "Does General Qiu still know me?" ”

"It's you!"

Yu Qianfeng was originally a member of the Xuanwu Fire Phoenix and rarely appeared in public, although he was the head of Dugushun's family, Qiu Shili only knew him, and was not familiar with him, Dugushun also took this into account and specially gave Yu Qianfeng a token.

Yu Qianfeng took out Dugu Shun's jade pei and put it on the table, and Qiu Shili recognized this unicorn-shaped jade pei at a glance, which was dedicated to Dugu Shun by his father back then.

Qiu Shili nodded, "What does Elder Dugu Ge want me to work for?" ”

"There is only a message, and the head of the family hopes that General Qiu will turn his allegiance to Li Yuan and help Li Yuan enter the city."

After a while, Qiu Shili said slowly: "Please tell the elder of the pavilion, his words Shili dare not disobey!" ”

Yu Qianfeng bowed and said with a smile: "Elder Ge knows that General Qiu will not let him down, so let Qianfeng stay to help the general." ”

Qiu Shili shook his head, "I will arrange it, Qian Feng will go back to protect the Pavilion Elder, I am worried that when the city is broken, the Yin World Master will be unfavorable to the Pavilion Elder." ”

Yu Qianfeng thought of the threat of the bone instrument today, so he nodded, "Since that's the case, I'll go back and ask the general to act as soon as possible." ”

"Please tell the elder pavilion, I will act tonight!"

Qiu Shili asked his soldiers to take Yu Qianfeng away, and asked his brother Qiu Xinggong to come.

After a while, Qiu Xinggong hurriedly came to the tent, "What is the matter with my brother?" ”

"Sit down!"

Qiu Shili asked his brother to sit down, and told Qiu Xinggong about Dugu Shun's request, and finally he asked in a low voice, "What do you think?" ”

Qiu Xinggong said with a smile: "Actually, even if there is no order from the elder Dugu Pavilion, I also want to persuade my brother to belong to Li Gong, obviously, Li Gong's army broke the city in these few days, and after returning to Li Gong, my father can also come back from Jiaozhi." ”

Thinking that his father was still suffering in the wilderness, Chushli made up his mind, "All right! I'll write this letter. ”

Li Yuan adopted Li Shimin's strategy in attacking Chang'an City this time, first using the bandits from all walks of life to attack the city, consuming the strength and combat effectiveness of the defending army, and then replacing it with elite soldiers to attack the city in one fell swoop.

At this time, the besieging army had been secretly replaced by the elite brought by Bingzhou, and it was Li Shimin's army outside the Chunming Gate.

Li Shimin was riding a horse to observe the situation in Chang'an City, when a patrol officer rushed to report, "Qi Zuo Dudu, a person from the head of the city, said that there is an important matter to report." ”

Li Shimin nodded, "Bring him over!" ”

After a while, several soldiers brought Qiu Xinggong, who was wearing a black night suit, and he recognized Li Shimin at a glance, and hurriedly knelt down on one knee, "Qiu Xinggong greets the second son!" ”

Li Shimin also recognized Qiu Xinggong, hurriedly turned over and dismounted, stepped forward to help him up, and said with a smile: "It turned out that Qiu joined the army, and I haven't seen him for a long time." ”

Qiu Xinggong took out his brother's letter from his arms and handed it to Li Shimin, "This is my brother's letter, please take a look at it." ”

Li Shimin knew that Qiu Shili was the guard of Chunmingmen, and he was also a person of Dugu Shun, he hurriedly opened the letter, and hurriedly read it in the firelight, in which Qiu Shili expressed his willingness to be loyal to Li Gong, and at the time of the third watch, he offered Chunmingmen to enlarge the army into the city, Li Shimin was immediately overjoyed, so effortlessly captured Chang'an City.
