Yang Gongren walked hurriedly towards the back courtyard, as if he was afraid that someone would catch up if he slowed down.
After the Jiangdu Incident, Yu Wenhuaji did not kill him, but appointed him as the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel. This seemed to be a high-ranking official, but in fact he was just a grass-roots official. Yu Wenhuaji could not protect himself now, and his Minister of the Ministry of Personnel was not as good as a
A captain with military power.
Yang Gongren also understood that Yu Wenhuaji did not kill him, not because he was highly respected, but because he was of no importance at all.
All the men in the clan of the Sui Dynasty were basically killed. Although he had the title of a clan minister, the important ministers basically understood that Hongnong Yang and Sui Yang were two different things.
"stop!"
A cold drink made Yang Gongren feel as if he had been struck by lightning. He immediately stopped in place and did not dare to move. It was not that he was as timid as a mouse, but that Yu Wenhuaji was insane. He dared to kill the emperor, let alone the ministers? From Jiangdu to Wei County
, how many ministers were hacked to death by Yu Wenhuaji on the spot, the bloody scenes are vivid in my mind.
When he turned around, he saw an old man standing behind him.
"Mr. Pei!" Yang Gongren looked at Pei Ju dumbfounded, "Why...you still have a childish heart!"
The person who came was none other than Pei Ju, the head of the Wenxi Pei family.
During the Jiangdu Incident, Yu Wenhuaji originally wanted to kill Pei Ju, but because Pei Ju had married a soldier of the Xiaoguo Army, Yu Wenhuaji did not kill him out of consideration for the soldier's attitude, but instead named him the Right Servant of the Shangshu.
, Doctor Guanglu, Ambassador of Hebei Province, Cai Guogong.
A series of rewards and rewards are of no use.
Pei Ju stepped forward and asked, "Come to see the Queen Mother?"
"Yes." Yang Gongren nodded, looked around, and saw no one around, so he whispered: "I got the news that Li Shentong from Xiangzhou has led the Tang army, and Yu Wenhuaji is discussing countermeasures, so I took the opportunity to come and see him
See the Queen Mother."
"Li Shentong." Pei Ju touched his beard and said, "I wonder if he can defeat Yu Wenhuaji."
No one wants to be a thief, especially a thief like Yu Wenhuaji who cannot see the future.
Yang Gongren sighed: "No matter what, it is better than letting Yu Wenhuaji continue to linger."
Are they just lingering on their last breath? If they are like this now, they are a different kind of lingering on their last breath. Pei Ju thought sadly in his heart.
"Let's go and see the Queen Mother together."
"Okay." Yang Gongren nodded and followed Pei Ju into the back courtyard.
Inside the camp.
Yu Wenhuaji is discussing countermeasures with his brothers.
Earlier, Yu Wenhuaji had killed the puppet emperor Yang Hao, ascended the throne as emperor himself, founded the country, gave him the reign title of Tianshou, and appointed hundreds of officials.
However, he was a very good emperor. Apart from talking to Empress Dowager Xiao, he spent most of his time on the road to escape.
Now, Li Shentong leads his army, and Yu Wenhuaji suddenly feels like he is facing a formidable enemy.
"We still have 30,000 people in our hands, and there are only about 10,000 Xiaoguo elites equipped with horses, armor, and soldiers. How can we defeat the enemy?" Yu Wenhuaji looked at his two younger brothers, Yuwen Zhiji and Yuwen Shiji.
Except for his own brother, he doesn't trust anyone now.
Yu Wenhuaji knew very well that he was surrounded by enemies everywhere now, both externally and internally. Only by holding on to military power could he survive.
Yu Wen Zhiji and his brother are the same. He knows nothing about fighting. When encountering this kind of thing, there is no other way except "attack with the whole army".
unreliable!
"If Li Shentong comes to die, then fight him!" Yuwen Zhiji said angrily.
Yu Wenhuaji was slightly disappointed and looked at Yu Wenshiji.
Seeing his brother's gaze, the latter hesitated and suggested: "Brother, even if we can defeat Li Shentong this time, there is still Dou Jiande in Hebei. Can we defeat Dou Jiande?"
Hearing this, Yu Wenhuaji said angrily: "But we can't defeat Li Shentong now, we will die soon!"
"Actually, we can still submit to the Tang Dynasty." Yu Wenshiji whispered.
"What did you say!" Yu Wenhuaji's eyes widened.
If Yuwenshiji hadn't been his biological brother, he would have chopped Yuwenshiji into pieces and fed them to the dogs.
Yuwen Zhiji also said angrily: "What are you talking about? Surrender to the Tang Dynasty and you will die!"
Yuwen Shiji explained: "I have an old relationship with Li Yuan, and he will never do anything to us. Besides, we rebelled against the Sui Dynasty, and he also rebelled against the Sui Dynasty. There is no enmity between the Yuwen family and the Tang Dynasty."
"Ignorance!" Yu Wenhuaji scolded: "No need to say such things again, I will never surrender to the Tang Dynasty!"
"But......"
"That's enough, don't stay in Wei County, go to Jibei to raise food for me, get out!"
Yu Wenshiji went down in disgrace, leaving the furious Yu Wenhuaji and Yu Wenzhiji to continue discussing countermeasures.
The two brooding brothers discussed for a long time and only came up with one solution.
hold fast!
Soon after, the War in Wei County started.
Li Shentong beat the drum himself, and the Tang army was ready to go, rushing towards Wei County one after another.
On the battlefield, Li Shentong completely let go of himself, forgetting all about Li Zhiyun's plans, and only killing, killing, killing was left in his mind!
The Tang army carried ladders and set them up on the city wall one after another.
General Zhao Junde immediately took the lead and climbed the ladder. With his encouragement, the Tang army attacked the city one after another.
Arrows were fired from both sides, soldiers and horses rushed forward, and the shouts of killing shook the sky.
Zhao Junde held up his shield and blocked all the stones thrown by Xu Jun from the top of the city. As he approached the top of the city, he suddenly exerted force on his feet and jumped onto the top of the city.
"kill!"
Zhao Junde brandished his sword and charged into the enemy group.
The Xiaoguo Army is indeed elite, but Zhao Junde is not a good one either.
A bloody battle breaks out.
Zhao Junde resisted first, and the Tang army climbed to the top of the city one after another and started killing.
"Who was the first to board the city?" Li Shentong asked hurriedly when he saw a breakthrough on the battlefield.
"Your Majesty, this is Zhao Junde." A scout replied.
Zhao Junde?
Li Shentong's face suddenly darkened and he looked unhappy.
When Li Mi surrendered to the Tang Dynasty and revolted, he was beheaded. The sage asked him to hold Li Mi's head to intimidate Wagang's generals.
Most people chose to cut ties with Li Mi, but Zhao Junde had an ambiguous attitude and even cried for Li Mi.
This made Li Shentong very suspicious whether Zhao Junde missed his old master.
"snort."
With a cold snort, Li Shentong didn't say anything.
Cui Mingan, who was standing by, shook his head and said nothing.
After two days of fierce fighting, Yu Wenhuaji actually defended Wei County.
Woohoo!
As the horn sounded, the Tang army began to retreat slowly.
Zhao Junde's face was stained with blood and he looked back at Wei County unwillingly.
In the past two days, he took the lead in every battle and was the first to attack the city. However, every time he had to retreat because of the lack of follow-up troops, which made him very frustrated!
Return to base camp.
Zhao Junde said to Li Shenqiang: "We will attack the city tomorrow. Please give your full support to the general. The general will definitely be able to capture Wei County!"
"War is not a child's play. How can you change it without authorization? Don't mention it." Li Shentong refused him calmly.
"Your Majesty, during these two days of siege, the last general was able to lead his soldiers to the city first. Please give the last general a chance!" Zhao Junde refused to give up.
"Give you a chance?" Li Shen said: "I have thousands of powerful generals under my command, and you are a latecomer. Wouldn't it be unfair to others to give you a chance first? Go down."
Zhao Junde gritted his teeth and said goodbye in anger.
He had always known that Li Shentong looked down upon his origin and rejected him because of his past experiences.
He knows all this.
But he did not give up. He believed that as long as he made contributions to the Tang Dynasty, Li Shentong would recognize him sooner or later.
But the facts proved that he thought too much.
"Field slaves! Dogs and rats!"
On the way back, Zhao Junde couldn't help but curse.
