in the sound of swallows

Chapter 173

The front was not allowed to enter, and there were pursuers behind. In a rage, Wen Shoushan sent troops to attack the capital directly.

Shen Guiyan is just a girl, if Shen Guiwu is drunk, can she hold the capital as a woman?As long as he opened the gate of the capital and went back, if Gu Chaobei wanted to chase him again, he would have to attack the city again.

I thought so, but after the leader tried to attack the city once or twice, Wen Shoushan discovered that the defenders in the capital had a large number of people and excellent weapons, and they couldn't be defeated in a short period of time!
Shen Guiyan stood on the tower, quietly watching the chaos below.Shen Guiwu next to him said in a low voice: "The Wen family army now has only 20 people left, and the capital can be defended for half a month."

"It won't take half a month." Shen Guiyan finally spoke, her voice was a little hoarse and jerky: "If they attack the city again, they will run out of time, and the pursuers will arrive soon."

Gu Chaobei chased very closely this time, and the distance was less than five days.If Wenshou Mountain is consumed any longer, it will be blocked in the outskirts of the capital.

Wen Shoushan also noticed it, so after the last siege, he wanted to withdraw his troops.

"Open the city gate." Shen Guiyan whispered.

Shen Guiwu raised his eyebrows: "Your Majesty, if you open the city gate, won't Wenshou Mountain occupy the capital again?"

Shen Guiyan shook her head: "You go and send someone to tell him that the palace has surrendered, [-] soldiers can be stationed in the capital, and the rest of the soldiers should be stationed in the outskirts of the city."

What does it mean?Leaving aside whether Wen Shoushan would agree, even if he did agree, would he obediently bring only [-] soldiers into Beijing?
But in the past three years, Yan'er has never made a wrong decision. Shen Guiwu hesitated, pulled a wild flower, and went downstairs while pulling the petals.

"Believe it, don't believe it, or believe it..."

After the petals were pulled off, Shen Guiwu went to the bottom of the city tower, sighed and told people: "Go out of the city to ask for peace."

The chasing soldiers are close at hand, and Wen Shoushan is in a dilemma when he receives the news of Shen Guiyan's request for peace.If you withdraw your troops, then continue to flee north, where can you escape?The soldiers have already traveled long distances, and their strength will be even more exhausted if they go further.But if he agrees to Shen Guiyan's request now, if he enters the city slowly, he may be overtaken by the emperor's pursuers.

No matter how you choose, there are risks. Shen Guiyan is too cunning. When is not good to ask for peace, he insists on asking for peace when he has wasted so many days and has to withdraw his troops.

After thinking for a long time, Wen Shoushan said: "Promise her, when the gate of the city is opened, all the soldiers will obey the order, and rush in for me, just like attacking the city!"

"Yes." The soldier took the order and went.

"Hey——" Behind the city gate, more than 100 people were pulling two boulders. The wooden carts were almost crushed, and they tremblingly transported the stones to the gate of the city. Behind the huge city gate.

In this way, even if the city gate is opened, it can only be half-opened. No matter how anxious they are, there is only a gap for two people to walk in side by side.

Shen Guiyan went back to the palace and waited. She calculated that it would take at least two days for the 20 troops to enter through the half-open city gate.

And one day, Gu Chaobei's army should reach the border of the capital.

Wen Shoushan never thought that Shen Guiyan would use such a method, and wanted to repent, but the people in front had already entered, and they were all his elite soldiers.If you continue to go in, the tail at the back will be chopped off.

He is now like a long dragon, his head entered the capital, his body was stuck at the gate of the city, his tail was all outside.

Wen Shoushan was furious and wanted someone to push open the city gate, but no one could move the boulder behind it, and the soldiers panicked and wanted to go in as soon as possible, the scene was chaotic.

"It's really not right, let the assault battalion enter Beijing, and the rest of the people retreat quickly, General!" The cronies said urgently: "The spies came to report that the enemy army is thirty miles away, and will soon reach the suburbs of Beijing! "

Wen Shoushan cursed, and said angrily: "Those who enter the capital, beat me into the palace, and lift the little girls from the dragon throne! Those who don't go in, organize the army, and prepare to turn around and catch them by surprise!"

The soldiers were divided into two groups, and less than [-] people entered the capital, and the dragons had no leader.Wen Shoushan got on his horse and led the soldiers behind him, and prepared to meet Gu Chaobei.

The little lady on the throne sat upright and said: "Three years ago in our capital, the graves of thousands of people can now be recovered from these traitors! Close the city gate, and no one will be left behind for the soldiers who entered the capital!"

"Yes." All the officials in the hall obeyed, and the Imperial Forest Army came out of the imperial city, and the Imperial Army was also fully armed.The defenders in the capital were more powerful than Wenshoushan thought, and before the soldiers who entered the city could breathe a sigh of relief, the sound of killing resounded in the capital.

Without the guidance of Wenshoushan, there were only seven lieutenants who led more than 1 people to scatter and head to the palace from all directions.However, as soon as they walked halfway, they met the defenders of the capital, and all parties started fighting.Some Wen family soldiers fled to the people's homes, and before they had time to show off their military aura, the uncle and aunt picked up an iron pan and shovel and smashed him unconscious.

Wen Jiajun didn't understand very well that it was fine for the city defenders to attack them, and it was still reasonable, why ordinary people who would usually run away when they saw a war, now set up traps in every household, and all kinds of hoes and poles were thrown at them Greetings on the body, and the desperate old lady, who couldn't stand upright at all, but held a hammer, and tried her best to smash Wen Jiajun on the head.

A soldier kicked the old lady away, and the hammer flew out. The old lady was lying in front of her house, unable to get up, shaking her hands but still wanted to get the firewood next to her.

"Is this old thing crazy?" the soldier asked the man next to him.

The person next to him muttered: "Who knows, this capital was originally the place we took down, why are the people in it so hostile now..."

"My daughter..." The old lady holding the firewood stood up tremblingly: "My daughter and son died under the swords of you beasts! They are clearly from the same country, but they have done their best to die. It's a good thing, your Wen family army is in the capital, and it's hard to move an inch!"

"Whispering!" Impatiently kicking the old lady, the soldier snorted coldly and wanted to move on.

A few of them want to escape for their lives. There are no enemy troops in this ghost place, but they are all difficult people.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he turned his head, he was hit by a brick on the head, and the blood flowed down and covered his eyes. Only then did a few soldiers realize that there were people carrying hoes in front of them.

The Wen family army entered Beijing were all elites, and Shen Guiwu felt that even if they wanted to wipe them out, it would take a long time.

Unexpectedly, in just one day, the Wen Family Army everywhere disappeared. The Imperial Guards and Imperial Forest Army did not suffer too much damage, but many civilians were injured and some died.

Gu Chaodong didn't understand what was going on, but Shen Guiyan said: "They compete for the throne and territory, and the people will not remember who wins and who loses. But if someone slaughters the people's family members and destroys their homes, no matter what How long does it take for that person to come back, the common people will remember it clearly."

"The graves of thousands of people outside the city must be redeemed by someone."

The power of the people will be so terrible?Gu Chaodong couldn't believe it, maybe it was just a coincidence, when Shen Guiyan was in power, she always paid attention to the people, and regarded the people in the capital more than anything else, maybe God opened her eyes and gave her a good reward, that's why Wen Jiajun did this It was almost submerged in the capital.

The gate of the city was closed, Wenshou Mountain didn't know anything outside, Gu Chaobei had already arrived, and he had to fight with all his strength.

On the outskirts of the capital, the places where the two sides camped were only ten miles away from each other. At dusk, the emperor led his troops to attack Wen’s granary, causing the destruction of Qianshi’s grain. Wen Shoushan turned to the capital for help. Shen Guiyan promised him that he would send the grain immediately go.

The delivery of food was made at night, and it was easy to do things in the dark.According to Yan'er's instructions, Shen Guiwu personally escorted the food and took the most elite soldiers there.

Wen Shoushan waited at the gate of the barracks, frowning, he was relieved when he saw Shen Guiwu, and ordered someone to meet him.

The food delivery team was so long that they couldn't see clearly in the dark, but the soldiers who delivered the food had already surrounded the large open space in front of the Wen family's barracks, and there seemed to be a steady stream of food coming from behind.

"Isn't that too much?" Wen Shoushan was puzzled, and was about to go down to ask, when he saw a grain truck parked in the open space, and suddenly stood up with a lot of "grain".

If you look carefully, you will know that the grain looks like the enemy army!

"Be alert!" Wen Shoushan shouted hastily.

How could there be time, the soldiers were still resting in their tents, and when they were woken up one by one, the enemy had already overturned their tents.

Wen Shoushan cursed angrily, and retreated with a group of cronies under the cover of his subordinates.The barracks where 8 people were stationed was swallowed up by the enemy, so he had to rush to the garrison town behind.

Shen Guiwu is also a traitor!Wen Shoushan was trembling with anger, no wonder Shen Guiyan could easily control the capital, with Shen Guiwu here!Talking about being drunk, dreaming and dying, I'm afraid it was done on purpose, to show him the biggest betrayal show!

Yuwen Changqing betrayed the water, and he had time to take precautions, but this time, Shen Guiwu really cut off all his retreats.

"Kill!" Gu Chaonan's eyes were sharp, standing on the horse, majestic.

In three years, he has changed from a military service to a head coach. Relying on his own wife, he has won one battle after another and won the trust of the emperor.With only this last victory, he can rest easy for the rest of his life.

Mengdie said that in this battle, Wen Shoushan will run or not fight. He wants to save his life and will hide in the Chenghuang Temple in Zhengzhou.Gu Chaonan told the emperor that he would definitely bring him back alive.

So the emperor didn't worry about this side. As soon as he got near the capital, he could not wait to go to the city.

The city gate is closed?It's okay, find a place with few people to climb the wall.

Horses can't climb walls?It's okay, he just needs to run when he gets in!

Chasing the cloud couldn't even shout, so he could only climb the wall, fly over the eaves and walk over the wall, all the way into the capital.

Now that the power in the capital is unknown, he really wanted to remind his master that it was too dangerous for such a person to come in.But where would Gu Chaobei listen?He ran across Chengde Street and Wuming Lane in one breath, and finally stopped outside the palace.
