Just when Hu Dayou shouted the order to attack, Xun Mou snapped his fingers again, and the soldiers who were lying in ambush all around rushed in from all directions at an unknown moment. In a moment, the Jinwu Guards were surrounded by wind and rain.
Jin Wuwei was originally preparing to attack, but was instantly frightened by the opponent's formation and took two steps back. Then they all looked back at General Hu Dayou. Hu Dayou was also frightened at this moment. It seemed that Xun Mou had been prepared for it. No wonder he had a smooth journey when he entered the palace just now. It turned out that a traitor had leaked the news and allowed the other party to set up an ambush here.
Hu Dayou no longer had much time to think about how to respond. It seemed that this plan was about to fail, but he gritted his teeth and ordered again: "The first four battalions attack, and the last four battalions follow me to break through to the south gate!"
At this time, the soldiers of Jinwu Guard received the order. The 4,000 men from the first four battalions rushed towards Xunmou crazily. The last four battalions, led by Hu Dayou, all turned around. The rear formation changed to the front formation, and the front formation changed to The rear formation went straight to the breakout in the south.
In an instant, the sound of killing was loud and blood was flying. As soon as the first four battalions launched their first wave of attacks, they were shot down by Xun Mou's arrow array. When the first four battalions rushed to the opponent's archers, hundreds of dragon and tiger guards armed with steel knives rushed out of the room. The two sides fought hand to hand, and another burst of blood and flesh flew everywhere.
At the same time, when Hu Dayou led the other four battalions to break through, most of them were killed or wounded. Hu Dayou was brave in front, holding a bright silver gun, raising and lowering the gun in his hand, creating a gap, followed by hundreds of people behind him, fighting together to create a gap. The bloody road goes straight to the south gate. However, Xun Mou's men did not chase Hu Dayou and others, but turned around and surrounded Hu Dayou's original first four battalions. After the first four battalions of guards saw that the general had fled to the south gate, most of them had no intention of fighting. Just when they were stunned, they had already lost their heads and saw that only more than a thousand people were still trapped. Beast fighting.
Xun Mou was a battle-hardened general. He knew that the leader of the rebel army had fled and it would be easiest for his subordinates to attack him, so he shouted to the crowd: "Put down your weapons, and those who surrender will inevitably die!"
As soon as Xun Mou finished speaking, there was a moment of silence below. All the soldiers had stopped. Then the sound of weapons hitting the ground came one after another. The soldiers of Jinwu Guard had already placed their weapons on the ground and surrendered.
At this time, Hu Dayou had already escaped from the third palace gate. He never thought that he could pass through the palace gates wide open all the way. He prayed in his heart that Zhang Kan would not have any more problems. Seeing that there was only the last palace gate left, I went out to the south gate exit, and passed the fourth palace gate. When I was about to reach the last palace gate, I saw that I was very close, and suddenly I heard a "boom" from the south gate in front of me. , the door was actually closed, Hu Dayou hurriedly pulled the horse's bridle, and the team behind him also stopped. Suddenly, there was a "boom" behind them, and everyone turned to look at the palace door behind them, which was also closed. The atmosphere condensed, and the soldiers under Hu Dayou looked at each other, and couldn't help but become nervous again. Almost everyone tightened the spears in their hands at the same time.
Hu Dayou raised his head and looked around. He and the guards were now trapped in the palace wall. There was no soldier guarding the tower. Even the palace lantern was not lit. Hu Dayou was thinking that the palace lantern was not lit. Suddenly, hundreds of palace lanterns lit up one after another. The surroundings were brightly lit, and countless archers suddenly flashed out from under the lights. There were people standing in a row along the surrounding towers, all with bows and arrows pointed at Hu Dayou and others.
At this time, Hu Dayou's forehead was covered with sweat and his back was soaked. And his men began to panic. Hu Dayou has already guessed that Zhang Kan's army has either been wiped out or has surrendered. It seems that the traitor should be between Zhang Kan and Du Zongting, or both of them may be traitors. Otherwise, how could things happen? It was revealed so quickly.
Just at this moment, a tall figure flashed out from the tower in the middle of the south gate. The distance was so far in the dark night that the person's face could not be seen clearly. The man shouted to Hu Dayou: "Hu Dayou, surrender quickly. I can still leave you a whole body."
Hu Dayou had already judged from Old Shen's voice that this person might be General Sun Chongwei of the Longhu Guard, so he patted his horse and took a step forward and said: "Old General, I just do things impartially, and I don't mean anything. I wish you the best." General, please let me go out of the palace."
On the city tower, the grizzled old general Sun Chongwei suddenly sneered, "Hu Dayou, you are still quibbling. The emperor treats you badly, how dare you go into the palace for the king of Wei?" Then he said to the person next to him. A middle-aged man dressed as a general said: "General Hou! Show him."
When Hu Dayou looked closely, the other person standing next to Changsun Chongwei was General Hou Zhigui of the Yulin Guards. He saw that he was holding a black object, and then he raised his arm and threw it towards him. , the round thing happened to roll down in front of his horse, and it turned out to be a disheveled, bloody human head.
Hou Zhigui shouted: "Hu Dayou, take a good look at what that is?"
Hu Dayou took a step forward on his horse and struck it with the silver gun in his hand. The bloody head was none other than Zhang Kan. Hu Dayou and the soldiers behind him exclaimed almost at the same time, "This..." Hu Dayou sighed, and tears filled his eyes instantly, "Brother Zhang Kan, it was me who harmed you!"
Changsun Chongwei pointed at Hu Dayou angrily and said: "Hu Dayou, as long as you surrender now, I can save your body."
Hu Dayou was unable to defend himself at this time, and knowing that the situation was over, he sighed, "The old general has always treated me well. I can surrender, but I have only one request."
Changsun Chongwei frowned and nodded, "Go ahead! I'll do my best!"
"Junior, I hope you can be noble and spare the brothers behind me!" Hu Dayou pointed the gun at the subordinates behind me as he spoke, "Junior planned this matter alone, and they did not know about it."
At this time, the soldiers behind him all looked at each other with tears in their eyes. At this moment, Changsun Chongwei couldn't help but feel admiration in his heart. He nodded vigorously and replied simply: "Okay! Don't worry about this. Since it has nothing to do with them, I will definitely intercede in front of the Holy Master."
After hearing this, Hu Dayou nodded with satisfaction. He knew in his heart that the emperor would still listen to his request because General Changsun had been loyal to the emperor for many years. But at this moment, all the soldiers behind him rushed towards Hu Dayou, knelt on the ground one after another, and shouted in unison: "My subordinates are willing to follow General Hu to the death."
At this moment, Hu Dayou burst into tears. Seeing the brothers in front of Ma and himself reduced to this, he couldn't help but feel extremely guilty, "Brothers, you still have your own family, it's not worth it for me, Hu Dayou! Wei! The king has been as kind to me as a mountain, so I can be where I am today, so I cannot be disloyal to the king of Wei. Today I only want to die, but you must live well. Since the old general promised us, I believe he will keep his promise."
