The fighting at the west city gate was in full swing, but something was unusual somewhere in the city.
Yang Xuangan took his two trusted generals and ran straight to where the granary was. Behind him, the five hundred trusted soldiers were waiting in full formation.
The general guarding the granary was Zhang Ji. Although his talents were not very good, he was diligent and disciplined. In addition, he had been quite obedient in recent years. Therefore, Yang Jian guarded the granary.
The task of the granary was given to Zhang Ji.
Zhang Ji looked at Yang Xuangan, who was coming in a hurry, and immediately stepped forward with a smile and said: "Now the war is about to begin! I don't know why the general is here!"
Yang Xuangan was the son of Yang Su. Zhang Jina could never afford to offend Yang Xuangan.
"Get out of the way, I'm about to go in!" Yang Xuangan said expressionlessly, and stretched out his hand to push Zhang Ji away.
"General Yang, you must not do this. No one is allowed to enter the granary without the Lord's warrant!"
Although Zhang Ji did not dare to offend Yang Xuangan, he was still conscientious and did not dare to put Yang Xuangan in like this. Otherwise, if something went wrong afterwards and Yang Jian was blamed, he would definitely not be able to bear it.
Yang Xuangan pressed the sword in his hand, with a cold light in his eyes, and looked at Zhang Jida with tiger eyes: "What do I want to do! When do I need to report to you, an old thing! Get away if you don't want to die! I want to go in!"
"It is a capital offense to enter the granary without the Lord's warrant. General, please go back quickly!" Zhang Ji was directly called an old man by Yang Xuangan, a junior. He felt angry in his heart, and veins popped up on his forehead, but in the end he finally
I didn't dare to have an attack, so I could only bite the bullet and say this.
Seeing this old guy Zhang Ji blocking him like this, not letting him in, evil thoughts flashed through Yang Xuangan's heart. Now that he has decided to take this step, there must be no turning back. Since this old guy dares to block his way
, then don’t blame him for being ruthless.
"Old guy!" Yang Xuangan called out coldly, suddenly pulled out the sword in his hand, and pierced Zhang Ji's heart with one sword.
Zhang Ji never thought that Yang Xuangan, who was from the same clan as Yang Jian, would betray Yang Jian one day. Therefore, Zhang Ji never expected that his life would be taken away by Yang Xuangan's sword.
"Old Yang Jian is actually a traitor to the Han Dynasty. Now that Jin King Qin Wang's army has arrived, continuing to resist stubbornly will lead to death. We want to submit to the King of Jin! Those who resist stubbornly will be killed without mercy!" Another sword cut off Zhang Ji's head.
Yang Xuangan opened his head and let the dripping blood splash all over his body. Yang Xuangan shouted at the soldiers guarding the granary.
At the same time that Yang Xuangan took action, under the leadership of the two generals, the hundreds of elite soldiers behind Yang Xuangan also immediately moved forward to threaten them.
These soldiers naturally knew who Yang Xuangan was. Seeing Yang Xuangan kill Zhang Ji, they didn't realize what happened!
Now that I heard Yang Xuangan say this again, I started to react one by one, and then my heart felt a little excited.
Although these soldiers have little knowledge, they can still tell that Yang Jian is probably going to die. They are just ordinary soldiers. Naturally, they cannot be loyal to Yang Jian to that extent, and they are naturally unwilling to die with Yang Jian. Now
With Yang Xuangan taking the lead, these soldiers had the idea of following.
"We are willing to follow the general!" The resistance in the hearts of many soldiers collapsed at this moment. The general was dead, and they had to find a way out for themselves.
Yang Xuangan looked at all this with satisfaction, and couldn't help but feel relieved. Yang Jian had arranged for three thousand elite soldiers to guard the important granary. If a fight really broke out, the five hundred people behind him might not be able to accomplish this trip.
Purpose.
"Brothers, set fire to the grain!" Yang Xuangan roared, and the five hundred elite soldiers behind him poured the prepared kerosene all over the granary. Several torches were thrown down. In just a moment, a prairie fire had formed.
.
"Brothers, charge towards the west city gate. I have sent another man to help King Jin open the city gate. We are going to meet King Jin!" Looking at the soaring fire, feeling the burning sensation on his face,
Yang Xuangan's eyes revealed more and more madness.
"Kill, kill, kill!" Behind Yang Xuangan, under the leadership of two lieutenants, the sounds of killing began to sound one after another.
It's a pity that those who were still immersed in the feeling of betrayal never thought about why they would burn food at this time if the Jin army was about to attack the city.
Since he has chosen to betray, Yang Xuangan simply does it more thoroughly. He now has 3,500 soldiers under his command. If he rushes out at this time, he will definitely cause a lot of chaos in the city. When the time comes, Yang Jian thought
To quell his army, some casualties will have to be paid.
With his men and horses, plus the casualties, it would be impossible for the Sui army not to lose thousands of troops tonight.
A fire was set off in the important granary area, betrayed by his own generals, and thousands of troops were lost due to civil strife. Tonight was destined to be an uneasy night for Yang Jian.

At the same time that Yang Xuangan went to the granary, Qin Hui also led more than ten people to the east city gate. Since Mao Xiang promised Yang Xuangan to ensure Yang Su's safety, although he also said that he was not completely sure, he could not
He didn't do anything at all, and Qin Hui came here just to deceive Yang Su.
As long as they can deceive Yang Su away from the army, they can then look for opportunities to capture him and hand him over to Yang Xuangan, and the rest can only be left to Yang Xuangan himself.
"I have met Mr. Yang. My lord has something urgent to do. General Xuan is here!" Qin Hui said as soon as he saw Yang Su.
Yang Su frowned slightly. Although he didn't know what urgent matter Yang Jian had to summon him, he could only go and lie down quickly.
"General Yang Jian, this place is temporarily in the hands of the general!" Yang Su ordered Yang Jian beside him. Although Yang Jian summoned him for urgent matters, Yang Su had to arrange things here before leaving.
"General, don't worry, the general is here and we will not let any Jin thieves enter Chang'an!" Yang Jian said firmly.
In the East City, Yang Su commanded the army to deal with the Jin army's siege every day. The pressure was naturally not small, but the pressure Yang Jian faced every day was never higher than that of Yang Su.
In the past few days, the Jin army had climbed onto the city wall several times, but fierce generals such as Xingtian, Ma Shanwei, Ma Yuan, and Ma Kui did not scale the city wall. Yang Jian took a large part of the credit for this.
