On the occasion of rebirth Zhou Sui

Chapter 347 Sudden Changes
Guan Nu Yusheng was lowered by the hanging basket on the city wall, and he was captured by the sentry cavalry of the Sui army within a short distance.

Zhang Zhen, a Hengzhou cavalry soldier, looked at Guan Nuyusheng's clothes, and laughed with his companions:

"Catch a big fish."

Last night Gao Jianwu sneaked out of the city and let him escape, today there are many Sui army sentry cavalry lying in ambush outside the city to try their luck.

The companion is also very happy, this person is dressed like a nobleman in the city, such a credit is easier than fighting with his life.

Unexpectedly, Guan Nuyusheng was not afraid of being overjoyed, and muttered words that Zhang Zhen could not understand. Zhang Zhen was confused when he heard it. , anxiously said:

"See Duke Yan, take me there."

Seeing Guan Nu Yusheng's eager look, Zhang Zhen and his companions looked at each other, not daring to delay, fearing that something might be missed, he hurriedly escorted Guan Nu Yusheng back to the camp, found his centurion, and reported to Guan Nu Yusheng layer by layer. Nu Yusheng was finally sent to Cui Che's tent.

In early summer in Liaodong, the evening breeze was cool. Cui Che listened to the translator's report, and also recalled the series of micro-expressions on Guan Nu Yusheng's face when he spoke before, and couldn't help believing it.

Cui Che is not a god, he can pinch and count.

Guan Nu Yusheng was deceived by Guan Nu Jiacheng, so what he said just now was completely sincere, without any adulteration.

But Cui Che was still cautious. After all, he was the kind of soldier who entered the barracks, and he had to be cautious in advance to communicate with the other party.

Facing Guan Nuyusheng's invitation to lead the army into the city tonight, Cui Che politely declined:
"It's getting late tonight, so I won't go into the city. You go back and tell Guannu Jiacheng that I will go to accept the surrender tomorrow morning."

Guan Nu Yusheng did not insist either, although his uncle specifically told him before leaving that he was worried that the night would be long and dreamy, and hoped that Cui Che would enter the city tonight.

But in Guan Nu Yusheng's view, it was only one night, and what big trouble could happen. After bidding farewell to Cui Che, Guan Nu Yusheng was still sent back by Zhang Zhen and his companions.

After Guan Nu Yusheng left, everyone raised their hands to celebrate that Liaodong City was at their fingertips. Although Cui Che promised that Guan Nu would be successful and would not slaughter innocent people in the city, the wealth in the city would still be distributed among the four families according to the number of troops sent.

Since it was the defenders who offered the city on their own initiative, no one family took half of the spoils.

The reason why Cui Che was willing to give the defenders of Liaodong a chance to surrender was also inspired by the more than 5000 surrendered soldiers. He hoped that with them as the backbone, he could organize a Liaodong servant army to guard Liaodong on his behalf.

In this way, it is better than pinning hopes on Kumoxi, the relationship between Khitan and Goguryeo.

Cui Che didn't take it lightly because Guannu Jiacheng sent an envoy to ask for his surrender. Back then, he attacked the Western Turkic court, didn't he just take advantage of the other party's celebration and get drunk.

There will be time later to celebrate.

Cui Che was still carefully arranging security for the four camps, as well as the drop barracks.

Besides, Guan Nu Yusheng returned to the city in a hanging basket and told his uncle Guan Nu Jiacheng the good news, Guan Nu Jiacheng's face changed drastically.

He had already set up an ambush in Beicheng, and he was waiting for the enemy to throw themselves into the trap, then lead them into Wengcheng, and then close the door and beat the dogs.

Who knew that Cui Che had to wait until dawn tomorrow before accepting the surrender.

Guan Nu Yusheng talked about the courtesy he received in the Sui Ying. It was too dark and under the light of the torch, he still didn't notice the change in Guan Nu Jiacheng's expression.

After he finished speaking, Guan Nu Jiacheng forced a smile and said:

"That's great, you go down and rest first."

However, Guannu Jiacheng didn't expect that, he coaxed Guannu Yusheng, not only convinced Cui Che that he was going to surrender the city, but also convinced the defenders in the city.

Because Guan Nu Yusheng didn't have a clue in his mouth.

After all, the city has to surrender tomorrow, so there is no need to hide this matter from close friends. Besides, no one in Liaodong City is willing to fight anymore. Now that Cui Che has guaranteed that innocent people will not be hurt, they will There is no reason to keep going.

As a result, one spread to ten, ten to a hundred, and overnight, almost everyone in the Liaodong defenders knew the news.

Only Guan Nu Jiacheng himself is still thinking about it.

On April [-]th, in the early morning, Guan Nu Yusheng was hanged from the city wall again, and excitedly went to the camp of the coalition army, ready to confirm the surrender details with Cui Che.

But in Liaodong City, a large-scale turmoil broke out.

"Ambush! What ambush! Isn't this battle over!"

"Now that Cui Che has finally graciously graciously spared us from dying, and won't implicate the people in the city, what exactly is Guannu Xunsa going to do!"

"If we entrap the Sui people this time, they won't give us another chance, they will kill us all!"

"Guan Nu Jiacheng wanted to be a loyal minister himself, so he committed suicide. Why did he drag the entire city's soldiers and civilians to be buried with him!"

"I don't want to die! I want Guannu Jiacheng to die!"

"That's right! Let Guannu Jiacheng die! We want to live!"

The reinforcements from the north were filled with righteous indignation and raised their arms and shouted.

They have been abandoned by their northern lord Gopulo, and there is no one they want to protect in the city, and their desire to end this war as soon as possible is also the strongest.

Looking at the degree of freedom gained by the more than 5000 Goguryeo cavalry under Cui Che's command, he will also be able to take the opportunity to escape back to the north and reunite with his family in the future.But there is another army in the city, which is the western army, which is the original defenders in Liaodong City.

Many of them have the same opinion as the reinforcements in the north, and hope that there will be no further twists and turns, but there are also diehard members of the Guannu family. After all, even when Cui Che stayed overnight in the surrender camp, there were six people who planned to take the opportunity to make trouble and encourage surrender Attack and kill Cui Che.

When Guan Nu Jiacheng set up an ambush in the city, the military order to attack the coalition forces spread throughout the three armies, and a riot broke out amidst the anger of the crowd.

Unwilling to obey the military order, he fought hand-to-hand with Guannu's loyalists in the city, and the sound of killing shook the sky.

The confidant broke into Guannu Jiacheng's mansion in a panic, and hurriedly said:
"Jesa! Rebellion! There are people in the city who are rebelling! They want to rob the city and dedicate it to the Sui people. You should leave the east city quickly, the soldiers in front are almost unable to hold on!"

Guannu Jiacheng looked very calm, the matter has come to this point, and he also knew that he was powerless, he said with a smile:
"Let's go on our own, don't worry about me."

After dismissing his cronies, Guannu Jiacheng let go of the servants and maidservants in the mansion.

He didn't want his wives and concubines to be humiliated by foreign enemies, so he ignored their pleas and killed them one by one with a knife.

Finally, in the main hall full of corpses, Guan Nu Jiacheng was wearing a brand-new official uniform, preparing to face his own death calmly.

At the same time, Cui Che, commander of the Sui army, who had already discussed the surrender ceremony with Guan Nu Yusheng, was also shocked when he heard the scouts report that fierce fighting broke out in Liaodong City.
