"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
As Li Anqi occupied the central and southern part of the government office, some of the soldiers who had been asking for explanations in Xianyang City were noisy and inspired by him. They slowly tied up the cloth strips and angrily joined the battle group, killing towards the left and right of the government office.
But Duan Da was not just a waste in appearance. After the initial panic, he led the crowd to withdraw from the official office, and quickly gathered the right guard soldiers, county soldiers and township warriors to resist vigorously on the streets of Xianyang City; and Li Anqi's military strength Although there were many, the width of the streets was limited and they could not take advantage of their military strength, which made the war stalemate.
The Sui soldiers who were originally colleagues were fighting bloody battles on the main street of Xianyang. Both sides were furious. The streets were soon filled with corpses and blood.
Seeing that the battle situation had stabilized slightly, Duan Da did not wait for Sima Yuanqian to say anything more, summoned the accompanying soldiers, and dragged Sima Yuanqian and Yu Wen Anyi to escape into the city.
Dou Gui looked at the various 'weapons' smashed down from the houses on the street, and suggested to Duan Da with a livid face: "General Duan, there is a huge disparity in strength between the enemy and us, and there are even some unscrupulous people attacking our troops from the houses on both sides of the street. Shoot arrows, throw stones, and wood. If the stalemate continues on the street, we will definitely annihilate the whole army. For the current plan, it is best for us to retreat to the county government office. With the strength of the county government stone wall, we can defend it. Reinforcements are coming.”
Duan Da also had this intention. After hearing this, he ordered: "The rear army retreats into the county government office, and goes to the wall to lay arrows to cover the front army."
"Here!" Upon hearing this, the ordering soldiers immediately raised a flag and ordered the soldiers to act according to the order.
After the order was given, the officers and soldiers retreated in an orderly manner, alternately retreating into the county government office.
The main street, which had been filled with loud killing noises, gradually became quiet. The rebels relaxed their pressure and let out waves of deafening cheers.
Li Anqi saw that the morale of the army was available and that many of the eliminated soldiers were joining him. He was immediately reassured and quickly ordered the soldiers to surround the county government office. Just when he was about to issue an order for a general attack, a group of cavalry came on horseback, headed by The team was clasping their fists from a distance and said: "General, there are reports of troops surrendering: it is said that Sima Yuanqian, the chief marching officer, and Yuwen Anyi, Yuwenshu's nephew, have just escaped from the east city gate with dozens of elite cavalry. At this moment, , It shouldn’t have gone very far.”
After hearing this, Li Anqi thought about it. Although he wanted to personally lead his troops to hunt down and use Yuwen Anyi's head as a memorial to his brother, his reason told him that he "cannot do this" because his first task now was to capture the county government and government before the imperial reinforcements arrived. Integrate the eliminated soldiers in Xianyang City. Only after completing these two steps can he lead his army to the capital. Otherwise, he will be trapped in Xianyang City by reinforcements.
But he was unwilling to let go of the two lackeys Sima Yuanqian and Yuwen Anyi who had just escaped, so he ordered a captain beside him: "Li Ji, lead your troops to pursue me! Bring me the heads of these thieves. .”
"General, I obey!" Li Ji responded, ordered his two hundred soldiers, and flew toward the east gate on horseback.
As time passed, news of the mutiny in Xianyang City spread to the Liquan Army, Shangyi Army, and Fuping Army stationed nearby at a speed visible to the naked eye. The military morale fluctuated for a while.
The Liquan Army closest to Xianyang was the first to receive Kuaima's request for help. The inspection general Xin Shixiong did not dare to leave the army alone, so he immediately blew the rallying horn and ordered Liu Tongren, a relatively well-established general, to be the vanguard and lead his three thousand elite troops. , a thousand right-guard soldiers rushed to aid Xianyang.

But it is said that Zhang Zhong's extraordinary troops led a hundred cavalry shortly after dawn, entered Daxing City from the Tonghua Gate on the east gate, and then rushed towards Wubenfang.
Yang Xiong only received the order to take over the city patrol army yesterday, and the city patrol army itself had its own set of patrol procedures and plans, so he needed to redeploy his troops after receiving Gongsun Huan's warning. This short gap in dispatching troops turned out to be a fatal time difference, allowing Zhang Zhong and a hundred elite cavalry to rush to Xu Guogong's mansion in Wubenfang without any hindrance.
Wubenfang is located in the south of the palace, across the street from the Taimiao Temple in the southeast corner of the imperial city. The residents there are mainly dignitaries. In Daxing City, every inch of land is very expensive. Its land price is no less than that of Pingkangfang and Chongrenfang. , Yongxingfang.
In this precious land, Yuwen Mansion originally only had fifty acres of homestead. After Yang Guang ascended the throne, he gave the royal villa on the left to Yuwenshu, who had the ability to follow the dragon; after Yuwenshu got the coveted villa, he opened up the The wall between the two houses formed a large mansion, and all the buildings in the mansion were torn down and rebuilt.
Hearing the rumble of horse hooves coming from far and near, the servants, servants, and honor guards in front of the various mansions instinctively followed the sound. When they saw more than a hundred horses galloping through the street, they stopped directly in the square in front of Xu Guogong's mansion. Everyone looked astonished. Scenes like this happened dozens of times every day. It was said that they were all the generals of the Beijing army who came to Yuwenshu to intercede. The people watching thought that this group of people also wanted to intercede, so they didn't take it seriously and continued to do their own things. thing.
At this moment, Yu Wenshu's honor guard also came out to line up. Twenty sturdy servants holding bronze swords were divided into two rows and stood neatly at the door of the mansion. The concierge who was walking in the square in front of the mansion was accustomed to the visits of Beijing soldiers. However, when he saw the Beijing soldiers riding on horseback on the square and heading directly towards the mansion gate, he immediately rushed forward and started a fight. With a face that was even colder than the cold winter, he shouted loudly and asked: "Where did you come from? You didn't dismount when you arrived at the general's door?"
"Kill!" Zhang Zhong roared, and galloped forward with a ferocious smile. However, he saw a flash of sword light, a head rising into the sky, and a column of blood immediately surged from the concierge's headless neck. It sprinkled on the square like a fountain. After several breaths, the body staggered to the ground.
Zhang Zhong's action was the signal to launch an attack. When he beheaded the concierge with a knife, the accompanying soldiers took out their loaded repeating crossbows and fired at the careless honor guard. The arrow that pierced through the air missed and shot the twenty-strong honor guard to the ground, screaming in agony.
Zhang Zhong didn't say much. He quickly got off his horse and led a group of his men to kill the twenty honor guards on the ground. Then he rushed into the mansion and killed everyone on sight.
Not long after, shouts of killing, screams, and women's screams could be heard throughout Duke Xu's mansion.
Although the Yuwen family has many experienced soldiers and soldiers who are not afraid of death, no one expected that someone would break into the capital or the mansion in broad daylight. Although they all came to resist at this moment, because of their respective In order to fight, they were all killed one by one by Zhang Zhong and his party who came well prepared, without any effect on stopping the enemy.
The ordinary servants and slaves in the mansion were already so frightened that they were crawling and crying and ran to the backyard to report. In the back hall at this moment, Yuwen Shu's wife, Mrs. Zhao, was talking to her eldest daughter-in-law, discussing the marriage of her young daughter Yuwen Miaoyin.
Yuwen Miaoyin was the daughter of a concubine, she was only fourteen years old, but she was as beautiful as a fairy, like a branch of flowers waiting to be bloomed. What was rare was that she was knowledgeable, courteous, gentle and generous, without the slightest domineering appearance of an aristocratic woman. It is loved by the whole family.
Even cruel people like Yu Wenji and Yu Wenzhi will turn into polite, gentle and kind-hearted sisters-loving demons whenever they face their little sisters.
"Miaoyin is not young anymore, and it's time to settle down a marriage." The gray-haired Zhao said to her eldest daughter-in-law.
"Aniang, I am also worried about this matter!" The eldest daughter-in-law said with a smile: "I like Amei, such a gentle and beautiful person, but ordinary noble children are not worthy of her. , in my opinion, it’s best to look for it from among the nobles.”
Mrs. Zhao chuckled and said, "I'm getting older and don't have that much energy to take care of it. You can do whatever you want!"
"My daughter-in-law obeys my orders." Yu Wenhuaji's wife is a girl from the Liu family in Hedong. She hopes that her sister-in-law will marry into her natal family so that both parties can become more intimate, so that they can complement each other in civil and military affairs and gain something from each other!
But as far as she knew, among the many direct descendants of her mother's family, none of them was worthy of her sister-in-law. Perhaps, she could look for someone from the side branches. If there was a person from the side branch who was talented, beautiful, and of good conduct, her brother would completely include him or her in the direct line.
"Madam, what's wrong, a group of rebel soldiers have entered the house and they are killing everyone they meet." At this moment, a dozen soldiers dressed in black rushed into the hall and reported loudly.
Zhao's expression changed drastically and she said in shock: "What's going on?"
Before he finished speaking, the shouts of death and screams gradually approached the backyard.
Ms. Zhao is a woman who has experienced countless storms and has an unusually calm temperament. When she heard the screams getting closer and closer, she knew that women like them could not escape far at all, so instead of risking their lives and leaving through the back door, she , it would be better to choose a place to hide in the house. As long as these women are hidden, the servants and dead soldiers in the mansion can take advantage of the geographical advantages to play games with the invading enemies.
Immediately he stood up and said decisively: "We can't escape very far. Let's hide in the secret room in the rockery first. I'm sure the rebels won't be able to open the door. Give the order and tell everyone in the back garden to find a place to hide and stop running around." .”
For a moment, there was chaos in the hall, and many women surrounded Zhao and fled one after another.
