Yuwen Chengdu was suspended and returned to his home in Jiangducheng, Yuwen Chengdu has already been married, his wife's surname is Xie, born in a famous family in Jiangnan, the husband and wife have a son and a daughter, the eldest daughter has been married last year, and the son has resumed the surname Xiao, called Xiao Yannian, only sixteen years old this year, he inherited his father's figure and bravery, and under the careful teaching of Yuwen Chengdu, he also became a young general.

Yuwen Chengdu's mood was very depressed, he knew that he was framed, in fact, this is what he has been worried about, after Xiao Milling rebelled and restored the Western Liang Dynasty, all the people of the Xiao clan were implicated, and even the saying of abolishing the queen came out of the palace.

Yuwen Chengdu has also been worried about whether he will be implicated, although he has been loyal for more than ten years, but he knows Yang Guang's suspicious character, this framing is not so much the other party's clumsy means, but Yang Guang's heart disease, even if he proves his innocence, Yang Guang will not let him lead the internal guard again.

Yuwen Chengdu almost didn't sleep all night last night, he had a kind of uneasiness, would the other party have any purpose in framing him at this time? At first, he thought it was a power struggle, and the other party was jealous of the power of the internal guard in his hands, but the more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, and now that the entire court was in a state of turmoil, the transfer of power in the internal guard army was particularly sensitive and weird.

He decided to talk to Yang Guang about it, even if Yang Guang didn't use himself, he couldn't let an incompetent and stupid person like Yu Wenying take over his military power.

Yuwen Chengdu didn't fall asleep until dawn, and when it was close to noon, his wife Xie woke him up.

"Husband! Husband! ”

Yuwen Chengdu opened his eyes in a daze, his eyes were red from a night of sleeplessness, and his voice was a little hoarse, "What's the matter?" ”

"General Dugu sent Niu Shun'er to you and said that there is something very important."

Yuwen Chengdu sat up slowly, only to feel a splitting headache, he frowned, patted his head, and his wife hurriedly handed him a cup of hot tea.

Yuwen Chengdu drank hot tea, felt a little better, got up and asked, "Where are the people?" ”

"In the guest room too! Very anxious, husband, go and see him! Xie Shi urged him.

"I see."

Yuwen Chengdu tidied up his hair and clothes a little, and then walked to the guest room, and as soon as he walked to the door of the guest room, an officer ran over, knelt down on one knee and said: "General Yuwen, the big thing is not good." ”

This officer's name is Niu Shun'er, and he is Yuwen Chengdu's pro-soldier captain, after Yuwen Chengdu was suspended last night, he asked Niu Shun'er to lead his pro-soldiers to follow Dugu to avoid being purged by his successor.

"What happened?"

"Early this morning, there was a will in the palace, ordering us to change guards with the left army, Yu Wenhui led us to the southern camp, General Dugu felt a little strange, so he went to ask Yu Wenhui if he didn't see the gold medal for transferring troops, Yuwen Xuan couldn't answer, General Dugu ordered someone to go to Jiangdu Palace to inquire about the news, but found that the bridge to Jiangdu Palace had been demolished, general, Jiangdu Palace must have had an accident."

Yuwen Chengdu was taken aback, turned around and ran towards the house, just ran a few steps, and then stopped and asked, "How many troops are there under General Dugu?" ”

"There are more than 3,000 people."

Yuwen Chengdu didn't care about putting on his armor, went back to the house and got his phoenix wings gilt boring, turned around and went to the stable, and his son Xiao Yannian chased after him from behind.

"Father, the child will come with you."

Yuwen Chengdu stopped, thought for a moment, turned around and held his son's shoulder, looked into his eyes and said: "Jiangdu may have a big mess, you take your mother to leave Jiangdu quickly, go to Taiyuan to find Yang Yuanqing, I will deal with it here, and I will come to Taiyuan to meet you." ”

"But father!"

Without waiting for his son to finish speaking, Yuwen Chengdu patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "You go with me, it's just an increase in troops, it doesn't mean much, but your mother has no one to take care of, you have to remember my words, take your mother to Jingxiang Road to Hongnong County, and then cross the river north from Hongnong County, Yang Yuanqing is your uncle, he will treat you well, you follow me, I will find a way to join you." ”

Xiao Yannian bit his lip and nodded, Yuwen Chengdu laughed, "Then hurry up!" Pack up a little, hire a boat and leave, and if the gates are closed, you won't be able to go. ”

Xiao Yannian turned around to leave, Yuwen Chengdu stopped him again, he groaned, and said loudly to his son: "My son remembers, the eldest husband wants to make contributions on the battlefield, and Mo Xue's father has no martial arts, but he has become a vase." ”

Xiao Yannian knelt down, kowtowed to his father with tears, turned around and galloped away, Yuwen Chengdu looked at his son into the inner house, and then quickly went to the stable, took out his horse, turned over on the horse, and followed Niu Shun'er to the southern camp.

The southern camp is two miles south of Jiangyang County, and the two of them rushed to it in a moment, and Qianniulang rushed out of the camp with Dugu Kaiyuan, and reported to him: "General, Yu Wenhui led the brothers south, saying that they were going to Danyang Palace for defense, and I couldn't stop them, and they had been gone for more than half an hour." ”

"And how many troops do you have on your hands?" Yuwen Chengdu asked anxiously.

"About 3,000 people!"

Yuwen Chengdu quickly estimated in his heart that the number of people was still too small, but there was no way, he immediately ordered: "Follow me to the turmeric road, and immediately rush to the Jiangdu Palace to escort!" ”

Yuwen Chengdu put on his armor and led his 3,000 troops around the turmeric road to the Jiangdu Palace, thirty miles away.

．．．．．．．．

Turmeric Road is a small road leading to Jiangdu Palace, the ground is bumpy, the road is rugged, there are large areas of farmland distributed on both sides, Yang Yuanqing copied the Zhang family's grange at the beginning, it is to take the turmeric road, take the turmeric road to the Jiangdu Palace about thirty miles, it is actually a bowed back arc-shaped road.

Yuwen Chengdu led 3,000 people all the way to gallop, they were all cavalry, marching quickly, half an hour later, the team gradually arrived at the Jiangdu Palace, already faintly could see the spire of the pagoda in the Jiangdu Palace, at this time they passed through a dense forest, the team immediately slowed down, holding a shield and looking at both sides vigilantly.

"General, there are ambushes!"

A lieutenant noticed the strange movement in the forest, and as soon as he finished speaking, ten thousand arrows were fired on both sides of the forest, and a dense number of arrows were fired at them, although they were holding shields and preparing for defense, but the dense arrows also caused many men and horses to be hit by arrows, soldiers screamed, war horses neighed, and hundreds of people fell down in a moment.

"Rush over!"

Yuwen Chengdu roared, led the army to rush to the exit of the forest in front, rushed out of the forest pass, and arrived at the Jiangdu Palace, this forest is a specially designed defense line to protect the Jiangdu Palace, there are still one hundred and fifty steps from the exit, and an army of thousands of people rushed out in front, quickly closed, blocking their way, the head of the general, it is the right guard general Chen Ling.

He is Yuwenshu's confidant and favorite general, and he is also a veteran of a hundred battles, about forty years old, holding a three-pointed two-edged knife, he coldly watched Yuwencheng lead the army to rush over, and ordered sharply: "Release the arrow!" ”

Thousands of arrows were shot at the onrushing cavalry, screams came one after another, and constantly fell to the ground, Yuwen Chengdu's eyes were red, he waved the phoenix wings gilt boring arrows, the horse was as fast as flying, and in a moment he had rushed to more than sixty steps away, he wanted to take advantage of the opportunity that the enemy army had not been completely blocked, and killed a bloody road.

Chen Ling saw that Yuwen Chengdu led hundreds of guards to rush in front and break away from the brigade behind him by about fifty steps, he sneered and ordered: "Assault on the left flank and cut off the two armies!" ”

In a burst of war drums, a cavalry of 5,000 men came from the oblique spur, and accurately rushed through the gap of fifty paces behind Yuwen Chengdu, separating Yuwen Chengdu from the brigade behind.

The sound of killing on both sides shook the sky, 20,000 ambush soldiers killed from the left and right, surrounded 3,000 people, there was a providence in the dark, it was 20,000 troops who rushed to ambush the reinforcements of Yuwen Chengdu, so that the periphery of Jiangdu Palace was lax, there were defensive loopholes, and the ship carrying Yang Fangxin was able to sail out of Jiangdu Palace smoothly.

Yuwen Chengdu was taken aback, he was already cut off by the enemy behind him, unable to return, and thousands of cavalry in front of him rushed towards him, he had no way forward, so he had to grit his teeth and rush forward.

Yuwen Chengdu waved his phoenix wings and smashed the gold hammer in the dense enemy group, slapping to death, dying, smashing heads, smashing bodies, killing the surrounding enemy corpses, flesh and blood flying, the air was filled with red mist, Chen Ling was also ruthless, mobilizing 3,000 people to besiege him.

With the passage of time, Yuwen Chengdu's subordinates have gradually been killed and scattered, most of them surrendered on their knees, and Dugu Kaiyuan also died in the chaos.

There was no one around Yuwen Chengdu, he was already sleepy at this time, but 20,000 enemy troops surrounded him on all sides like iron buckets, he knew that he couldn't rush out, and yelled, "Let Chen Ling come to see me!" ”

Chen Ling smiled at Yuwen Chengdu dozens of steps away under the protection of hundreds of guards: "General Yuwen, if you are willing to surrender, I will protect you for glory and wealth." ”

Yuwen Chengdu raised the phoenix wings gilt boring and pointed at him and said: "Chen Ling, the saint treats you well, why do you want to rebel and kill the king?" ”

"Shut up!"

Chen Ling shouted angrily: "Yuwen Chengdu, I Chen Ling don't want you to teach you a lesson, the splendid rivers and mountains of the Great Sui will be destroyed in the hands of his only husband, how many families have died and their wives have been separated, how many of the 50 million people of the Great Sui are left now?" The war is devastated and thousands of miles of bones are paved, shouldn't he pay for the lives of thousands of people who have died? Kill that single husband, I, Chen Ling, will establish the emperor's eldest grandson as the emperor and revitalize the Great Sui River. ”

Yuwen Chengdu sneered: "I'm afraid that you have worked hard, but you have made a wedding dress for others." ”

Chen Ling's face was gloomy, and he waved his hand, "Surrounded by archers!" ”

Three thousand cavalry archers surrounded Yuwen Chengdu, and they all pulled their bows at him, Chen Ling snorted heavily: "Yuwen Chengdu, I will give you one last chance, surrender and spare your life!" ”

Yuwen Chengdu smiled proudly: "I, Yuwen Chengdu, dominate the world, invincible, it's a pity!" Died at the hands of you, a villain, Chen Ling, my son will take your head one day. ”

Chen Ling was furious and shouted: "Release the arrow!" ”

Three thousand cavalry archers released arrows together, but unfortunately although Yuwen Chengdu had peerless martial arts, he had no chance to display his talents in his life, and died tragically under the random arrows.
