The sound coming from behind was the majestic sea.
He put the wrought copper rod aside and pulled up both sleeves, exposing his thick arms.
Shan Xiongxin hesitated for a moment, then nodded and replied:
"Okay, Bodang, Yingdeng... follow me to block the enemy. Don't let them get close to the city gate."
Now Shan Xiongxin had no choice, they had to allocate manpower to resist the enemy. But the city gate is heavy, so we can only place our hope on the mighty sea, because his power is indeed powerful.
If even Xiong Kuo Hai can't open the city gate, I'm afraid they will really be trapped in the city.
After all, if Fan Hu wants to resist Yuwen Chengdu, there is no way he can join forces with Xiong Kuohai to open the door.
Soldiers kept rushing over.
Qin Qiong also rushed here and cooperated with Shan Xiongxin and others, like a copper wall to keep the soldiers out.
Xiong Kuohai, who was close to the city gate, simply moved his muscles and bones. He grabbed the door with his thick arms, then took a deep breath, and huge power emerged.
"Crunch!"
It took dozens of people to push the city gate open, but a gap quickly appeared in front of Xiong Kuohai's arms.
"Drink! Open it for me!"
Xiong Kuohai gritted his teeth and used all his strength. He was a purple-faced king who could withstand a thousand-jin gate. How could a city gate in front of him try to stop him?
The distance between the two city gates is getting wider and wider.
The light from outside shone into the city gate, making Shan Xiongxin and others look happy.
Fortunately, there is a vast sea, otherwise, they would be in trouble. With the power of Shan Xiongxin and others, it is not that simple to open the city gate.
Xiongkuohai did not fully open the city gate, but the gap at this moment was enough for them to pass.
Everyone looked far away and could vaguely see soldiers and horses gathering in the distance, rushing towards them.
You can't be in love with fighting, you must leave as soon as possible.
"Sixth, retreat, it's time to go!"
Shan Xiongxin did not call Fan Hu by his first name. If his identity was revealed, he would be in trouble even if he ran away.
Wang Bodang and Xie Yingdeng didn't bring bows and arrows, but that didn't mean they were helpless.
Having just killed many soldiers, they picked up the spears on the ground and headed towards Yuwen Chengdu to confront him.
At the moment, Fan Hu is fighting fiercely with Yuwen Chengdu. The two of them are going back and forth without falling behind at all.
For a moment, everyone, including Xiongkuo Hai, was a little shocked. They don't know where Fan Hu's limit is, which is really incredible.
Last time, Fan Hu and Xiong Kuohai fought fiercely, and the gap didn't seem to be very big. But just now, Xiongkuohai was completely at a disadvantage when facing Yuwen Chengdu. How could he be like Fan Hu?
Could it be that Fan Hu hid his strength again last time?
Everyone hid this idea in their hearts. Now is really not the time to consider this.
"call out!"
The spear was like a sharp arrow, heading towards Yuwen Chengdu. Wang Bodang and Xie Yingdeng did not want to hurt Yuwen Chengdu, as long as they could contain Yuwen Chengdu and let Fan Hu kill him.
Shan Xiongxin and Qin Qiong quickly took action and snatched several horses from the enemy.
Without a horse, even if you leave the city, you won't be able to run far.
——
Fan Hu heard Shan Xiongxin and others shouting.
I am not ready to continue fighting with Yuwen Chengdu.
Yuwen Chengdu really lived up to its reputation. Even if Fan Hu tried his best, he still couldn't take advantage.
It is not an exaggeration to say that they are evenly matched.
The pursuers from behind are about to arrive, and if he delays any longer, he will only be trapped in a tight siege, with no benefit at all.
When Wang Bodang and Xie Yingdeng threw their spears and headed towards Yuwen Chengdu, Fan Hu took the opportunity to slash out with a knife, forcing Yuwen Chengdu back, and then ran towards the city gate.
Although Yuwen Chengdu is strong, he is not indestructible. Both Wang Bodang and Wang Bodang had extraordinary archery skills, and the spears they threw were also very accurate, and they struck at Yuwen Chengdu's back.
In this case, Yuwen Chengdu couldn't take care of the front and rear. He had to guard against a surprise attack from the rear, so naturally he couldn't keep Fan Hu and could only watch Fan Hu escape.
When Yuwen Chengdu swept away several spears and chased Fan Hu, he shouted loudly:
"Don't leave, the thief!"
Fan Hu didn't look back. He directly grabbed a war horse and replied:
"Yuwen Chengdu, we will meet again!"
Ahead, Xiong Kuohai and the others had been waiting for a long time. Everyone was ready and headed towards the outside of the city.
At this moment, Xiong Kuohai was guarding the door. After Fan Hu came out, he pulled the city gate with all his strength outside the city and actually closed it forcefully.
As soon as Yuwen Chengdu arrived in front of the gate, the city gate was closed tightly before he could chase him out.
Looking at the city gate in front of him, his expression was uncertain.
Not long after.
The city gate opened again.
However, the night is dark, where can I see Fan Hu and others?
Following the direction, Yuwen Chengdu led his troops in pursuit for a while, only to see discarded weapons and mounts. Fan Hu and others have long since disappeared.
After leaving the city, trying to find them is like looking for a needle in a haystack, it is too difficult.
At this point, Yuwen Chengdu had no choice but to go back and resume his life.
Tonight is the Shangyuan Lantern Festival, which is also an important matter for the court. Yuwen Chengdu ordered the city gates to be closed, which disturbed the people, but still allowed the thieves to escape. There had to be an explanation.
——
The next day.
A wanted order was issued by the imperial court and sent to various places in the Sui Dynasty to track down the nine thieves who caused havoc in Daxing City.
The death of Yu Wen Huiji was a small matter to the court, but the thieves killed people and still fled Daxing City, which was a big deal.
This is the capital city of the Sui Dynasty, and the emperor is also in the city. If we don't treat it strictly, won't we be looked down upon by everyone in the world?
As for the people in the city.
Naturally, there was a panic last night.
But at this moment, there are just more things to talk about after dinner, and not much experience related to myself.
In the East Palace.
Yuwen Chengdu stood in the main hall, his expression slightly depressed and in a low mood.
In front, sitting a middle-aged man, wearing a python robe representing the prince of a country.
This man is Yang Guang.
Unlike Yuwen Chengdu, Yang Guang smiled and said:
"Chengdu Aiqing, are you saying that one of those thieves is not as strong as you? And his sword skills are so good that you can't resist him?"
Yuwen Chengdu said yes.
Immediately, Yang Guang muttered and said:
"I didn't expect that there is such a good man in the green forest. It's a pity that he can't be used by Gu. When Gu ascends the throne and is honored, this green forest must be cleaned up.
Today, he dared to kill people wantonly in Daxing City. Will he dare to enter the palace next time? "
Yuwen Chengdu was silent, and after hesitation he replied:
"The general is incompetent and has failed His Highness's trust. Please punish His Highness!"
However, when Yang Guang heard this, he shook his head and said:
"Why did Chengdu Aiqing say this? It's not your fault. I will solve it for you on my father's side. You just need to take charge of the capital camp well. Do you understand?"
Feeling Yang Guang's trust, Yuwen Chengdu's expression moved slightly, and he raised his hands again and replied:
"The last general takes command!"
After a while, Yuwen Chengdu said goodbye and left.
Yang Guang looked at the wanted posters on the table next to him. They were portraits described by the servants and traced by the painter.
Although there were some deviations, for some reason, Yang Guang suddenly thought of the few people who suddenly appeared at the foot of Lintong Mountain and rescued Li Yuan's family.
