685 Coexisting with the city
As soon as Pei Qiantong retreated, Yang Shanhui concentrated his forces, turned the defense into an attack, and caught the cavalry sent by Dou Jiande to intercept him by surprise and retreated in defeat.
Yang Shanhui was able to bring more than 10,000 weak Qinghe troops into Qinghe City, but at this time, Qinghe City was empty because of its defenses, and Zhang Jin said that the rogues lurking in the city set fire everywhere, and the Qinghe East City Tower had been broken by Dou Jiande's army.
As soon as Yang Shanhui entered the city, he saw the fires in the east of the city, and the merchants and citizens who were wandering around, looked back at the exhausted soldiers behind him, knew that the general trend had gone, gritted his teeth, and shouted: "The Chinese army will go to defend the north gate, and the rest of the 1,000 light horsemen will follow me to rescue the queen mother!" The queen must not be allowed to fall into the hands of Dou Jiande! ”
"Yes!"
……
Yang Shanhui rushed into the city defense barracks with a thousand light horses, but found that the tent facilities in the barracks had already been burned to ruins by the fire, and there was no trace of Empress Xiao and Zhang.
At this time, the advance army of Dou Jiande's army had already entered Qinghe City, distributed everywhere, and listened to the situation in the city, Yang Shanhui was shocked, but he didn't expect the city to fall like a mountain, and the other party would come so quickly.
After killing a few of Dou Jiande's advance army spies, Yang Shanhui waved his hand, "Go back to Beicheng Tower!" ”
……
When Pei Qiantong's army, which led the army back to defense, returned to Wei County two days later, from a distance, the flag in the city had been replaced by the flag of the Tang army.
Pei Qiantong was shocked when he saw it, and knew the other party's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, and Wei County had fallen into the hands of the Tang army.
Just as they were hesitating and not knowing where to go, a Praetorian Guard of about 3,000 people, carrying an eight-horse carriage inlaid with gold and jade, rushed towards them.
Hundreds of delicate and crying palace maids and concubines next to the car did not have a carriage, so they could only run with the carriage, and many women were unable to reach their feet and fell to the ground, and no one helped them, so they were abandoned behind.
It is the car of Yu Wenhua.
The carriage next to the car was full of gold, silver and jewelry brought out of the Wei County Palace.
Pei Qiantong rode on horseback, looked at Yu Wenhua and the army like a lost dog, and scolded angrily: "Your life is almost gone, and you are reluctant to leave behind gold, silver and beauty, you deserve to end up in such a field!" ”
A person next to him stepped forward and offered a plan and said: "General Pei, the matter has come to this, only to raise the army to surrender, is the best policy, I have heard that the Tang army treats the generals well, now the Tang army is strong, and there is a momentum to unify the world, the general trend is the trend, if the general can catch this Yu culture and, surrender the Tang army with 20,000 soldiers and horses, it may be able to exchange for a prince and a half king, is it not better than the situation where everyone in the world shouts and kills." ”
Pei Qiantong pondered for a moment when he heard this, and nodded slightly, "According to what the military advisor said, he captured Yu Wenhua and surrendered to the Tang Army!" ”
When Yu Wenhua's Praetorian Guards arrived, Pei Qiantong secretly arranged an ambush to jump out to arrest him, but he didn't expect Yu Wenhua and although he was embarrassed, the Praetorian Guards around him were all desperate people who had been raised for many years, desperately killing and wounding hundreds of people, protecting Yu Wenhua and breaking out of the encirclement, and going west.
Leaving behind a place of crying palace maids and concubines and more than a dozen cars of gold jewelry.
The car is loaded with some priceless treasures in the old Sui Palace, but unfortunately along the way, with the Yu culture and fleeing, bumps and bumps, many good jade porcelain vase carvings have been knocked out of defects, hundreds of thousands of years of antique treasures have also been destroyed.
Pei Qiantong asked people to sort out the good ones, and selected some young and beautiful concubines in the old Sui Palace, repaired a letter, and sent more than a dozen envoys to the Tang military camp to ask for surrender with these treasures and beautiful concubines......
Yu Wenhua and the old Sui ministers who killed Yang Guang and conspired against the rebellion have died so far, surrendered, fled, and fell apart, and were no longer able to pose a threat.
Chai Shao, who was full of ambition, received Pei Qiantong's invitation to surrender, personally led the elite soldiers, went out of the city to greet him, showed off his might, welcomed Pei Qiantong into the city, and held a banquet to celebrate the great achievement......
……
At this time, Qinghe City was already in a bitter battle.
A house in the north of the city was attacked by Dou Jiande's army, and it became a ruin, and the people of Qinghe also gathered under the city tower in the north of the city, surrounded by Dou Jiande's army, and resisted stubbornly.
Yang Shanhui fought bloodily, and with 3,000 elite soldiers, he defended the city tower.
Seeing that the people of Qinghe City did not hesitate to use their bodies as shields to resist the rain of arrows and guns of Dou Jiande's army in order to protect this last fortress, Yang Shanhui's heart was dripping blood.
These city citizens are the fruits of his years of hard work, relying on their hard work, diligence and hard work, Qinghe City has today's prosperity, each of them is the wealth of Qinghe City, and now the defeat has been decided, but in vain was lost in this hopeless battle, so that he couldn't help but have a trace of despair......
He has been looking forward to it for many days, and he is looking forward to the north to have Zhen Life's rescue troops leading Ping'en City to come, however, there is no movement in the north, thinking that the original plan is that he led the army to aid Ping'en City, what is the current situation of Ping'en City, he actually knows better than anyone else, he is difficult to protect, how to help.
"General Zhen is only afraid that he will be anxious to wait for me to rescue in Ping'en City, but instead of helping him, I let the whereabouts of the queen mother and his wife be unknown, and I really don't have the face to see him again......"
He glanced at the soldiers and civilians who were sworn to resist to the death under the city tower, and for a while, his blood and qi were surging, and he groaned for a long time, and suddenly gritted his teeth, as if he had made up his mind.
At this moment, the attack in the distance suddenly stopped, Dou Jiande's army suddenly gave way, several carriages lined up, a mighty and sturdy man, holding two big round hammers, riding a horse, slowly walked in front of the army, and shouted towards the city tower: "I am Liu Heimin, the vanguard general under the Xia throne, who is commanding on the city tower, showing up to speak!" ”
Yang Shanhui appeared on the railing of the city tower and shouted: "I, Qinghe City and County guard Yang Shanhui, if I have something to say!" ”
Liu Heimin's voice was as thick as gongs and drums, full of energy, and his voice could be heard within a mile: "If you don't descend at this time, when will you wait!" ”
"In Yang's dictionary, there is no descending word!"
"You Yang Shanhui is not afraid of death, but you have so many subordinates, they have families and rooms, and they know that there is only one death if they resist, so why bother with their lives again! I kindly advise you, King Xia has always been kind to the people, kind to the surrendered troops, to stay at will, but also for the surrendered troops to return to their hometown, there is really no need to resist stubbornly. ”
Yang Shanhui shouted: "Yang Mousheng is only loyal to the Great Sui, and even if he can deceive the world and sell his reputation, it is just an unkind and unrighteous rebellion, how can I abandon my arms and surrender!" Although you are attacking, if Yang frowns, Yang will be a man! ”
Liu Heimin laughed: "You are a man, but you are too stubborn, look at who this is!" ”
