At dawn the next day, Duan Da and Yang Wang came to the Mangshan camp and informed Meng Gong of the arrest of eldest son Sun Wuji. They claimed that after interrogating eldest son Wuji, they learned that Li Shimin was brewing a shocking conspiracy, and urged Meng Gong to go to the city to discuss.
Meng Gong pretended to be careless and agreed, and left the Mangshan camp with his deputy Gao Siji and fifty soldiers. Duan Da and Yang Wang couldn't help but feel secretly happy when they saw this. They immediately led Meng Gong and his party into Luoyang Imperial City, passed through Zuoye Gate, and went straight to Zheng Guogong's Mansion.
Wang Shichong's Zheng Guogong Mansion was built on a street less than ten miles away from Luoyang Palace City. According to etiquette, this is a treasonous act. But now that the world is in chaos, how can anyone pay attention to etiquette? In addition, Luoyang is Wang Shichong's territory, who dares to stand up and accuse him.
However, this also reflects Wang Shichong's ambition from the side. He built his mansion less than ten miles away from the palace in order to facilitate his move into the palace when he became emperor in the future.
"Master Duan, are you sure that the Tang Army spy captured alive by you is Li Shimin's confidant, Sun Wuji?"
Meng Gong, fully armored, stared at Duan Da with a serious expression and asked. This is already the fifth time Meng Gong has asked Duan Da.
"Yes, General Meng, you can rest assured. After Changsun Wuji was arrested, the prince of Zheng Guogong found five or six officials in Luoyang City who had interacted with Changsun Wuji in the past. They all confirmed that it was Changsun Wuji, the son of Changsun Sheng. undoubtedly!"
Although Duan Da had already answered this question five times, Duan Da didn't feel bored at all, and was secretly happy in his heart.
The more times Meng Gong asked, the more anxious he became, which meant that he had not seen through their plan.
Not long after, Duan Da and Yang Wang led Meng Gong and his party into the inner courtyard of Wang Shichong's mansion.
"General Meng, General Gao, and Prince Zheng Guogong think that this matter is of great importance. If there are too many people, the secret may be leaked, so they can only discuss it with General Meng, and I will leave first."
Duan Da and Yang Wang bowed their hands towards Meng Gong and made a gesture to leave.
Meng Gong smiled slightly and stretched out his hand to hold the hilt of his sword. Gao Siji, who was on the side, understood, unsheathed his sword and placed it across Duan Da's neck.
Yang Wang on the side saw that the situation was not good and was about to run away. Several of Meng Gong's soldiers rushed forward and pushed him to the ground.
"General Meng, what are you doing?"
Duan Da was so frightened by the sudden turn of events that his face turned pale. It took him a while before he mustered up the courage to ask Meng Gong loudly.
Meng Gong ignored Duan Da and shouted loudly into the mansion: "Wang Xuanying, you and I are your Majesty's ministers. Now that the Tang army is invading, you have deceived me to come to your mansion and secretly laid an ambush. What do you want?"
"kill!"
As soon as Meng Gong finished speaking, there was a sudden cry of killing in the inner courtyard, and dark soldiers poured out from inside, numbering hundreds of them. At the same time, the door to the Duke of Zheng's Mansion also slammed shut. Wang Xuanying's uncle Wang Shiyun and Wang Xuanying's younger brother Wang Xuanshu, both wearing heavy armor, led hundreds of soldiers to fight out from the gardens on both sides, cutting off Meng Gong and others. retreat.
Wang Xuanying wears a golden helmet and a suit of armor that he wore when Wang Shichong was still Jiangdu Tongshou. There is a sword hanging on his waist and a fiery red battle robe behind him. He looks majestic.
Wang Xuanying glanced at Meng Gong and the others who were surrounded by the core, and said coldly: "Meng Gong, I won't talk nonsense to you now. If you know better, just throw down your weapons and surrender, and hand over your military power to me. I Maybe I can spare your life!”
Meng Gong stared at Wang Xuanying and said coldly: "You are going to rebel!"
Wang Xuanying laughed and said: "Yes, I just want to rebel! The emperor takes turns to do it. Next year, when he comes to my house, what qualifications does a young boy like Yang Gao have to aspire to win the Ninth Five-Year Plan? Meng Gong, I think you are very capable. If you cooperate well, I will protect you in the future." You become a general!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Meng Gong laughed wildly for a while, with a pair of eyes flashing with terrifying murderous intent, he stared at Wang Xuanying and shouted: "Wang Xuanying, why don't you take a good look at yourself in the mirror? You are just like a fool, how can you talk about becoming the world leader? "
When Wang Xuanying heard this, his face suddenly turned livid, and he roared angrily: "Common man, I think you are seeking death. If I don't cut you into pieces today, I won't call you Wang Xuanying!"
"Then it seems you can no longer call me Wang Xuanying!"
Meng Gong shook his head disdainfully and said with a sneer: "Wang Xuanying, do you really think you can hide it from me with your three-legged cat tricks?"
"What do you mean?" Wang Xuanying's expression changed, and he shouted at Meng Gong with some sternness: "Meng Gong, you think your little skills can outshine me, I'm not scared!"
Meng Gong said calmly: "Are you kidding me? You'll know soon!"
As if to prove Meng Gong, just after he finished speaking, a line of smoke billowed out of Duanmen, and there was also the faint sound of exciting war drums and high-pitched shouts of killing.
"His Royal Highness, don't worry about anything else at this time. Take down Meng Gong first. Meng Gong is the chief general of the Sui army. If he takes him away from the Sui army's rat-throwing weapon, we may still have a chance of survival!"
After all, Duan Da was a veteran who had been in the officialdom for decades. At this time, he was the first to react and yelled at Wang Xuanying.
"At this point, we still have to resist. It's so stubborn!"
When Gao Siji heard this, he became furious. He swung his sword and cut Duan Da's throat. Blood flowed out like spring water.
"Ding dong, it was detected that Duan Da was killed by Gao Siji. The host received 8 soul points. The current total number of soul points has increased to 303."
"Ding dong, the system has detected Duan Da's four-dimensional ability, 68 in command, 70 in force, 78 in intelligence, and 71 in politics."
"Brothers, Master Duan is right, take down Meng Gong first, otherwise we will definitely die!"
Although Duan Da died, his roar before his death did point Wang Xuanying to a clear path. He immediately drew his sword out of its sheath and directed his troops to kill Meng Gong.
"Protect the general!"
Gao Siji roared and swung his sword to kill him.
"Ding dong, it has been detected that Gao Siji has entered the brave state, the force is +3, the base force is 100, and the current force has increased to 103."
"Ding dong, it has been detected that Gao Siji cannot exert his full strength when using his sword. The force is -4, and the current force is reduced to 99."
Although Gao Siji did not use his favorite spear, he was still unstoppable with his extraordinary martial arts skills. In a short time, he had killed more than 20 warriors, which frightened all the soldiers. Falling backward, not daring to take the lead and rush forward.
"Come on, protect General Meng! Suppress the rebels, kill him!"
At the same time, the originally tight door was slammed open. Wang Xiaojie led hundreds of his confidants and rushed in, shouting, and without saying a word, they slashed at Wang Xuanying's troops.
