Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 3363
A sneering smile appeared on Yuan Gai Suwen's cold face, he took a sip of tea, heaved a sigh of relief, looked at the boy Yuan and said, "Let me fight to the death for the survival of the country of Goguryeo and the Yuan clan, and the But after my death, you groveled and lived as thieves, and even continued to enjoy the glory and wealth... That is absolutely impossible, I would rather blame others than others."

Chang Sun Chong shook his head and sighed softly.

He really didn't understand Yuan Gai Suwen's character. This kind of hero in the world is proud and conceited. He would rather die in a vigorous battle in Ping Rang City than flee the city like a bereaved dog. He would bear the infamy of his life and become a laughing stock Pregnant?

If I knew his character of preferring to bend, how could I believe that he would abandon the city and run away?It should have been known that its arrangement in the south of the city was deliberately concealed. In fact, the "Wang Zhuang Army" had been placed in the most secret place, and it was only waiting for the opportunity to inflict heavy damage on the Tang Army.

It's a pity that Yuan boy is really stupid. As a son of man, he doesn't know his father's temperament, so he was deceived into a circle and fell into a situation beyond redemption...

Boy Yuan's face was ashamed, his lips twitched, but he didn't say a word after all.

Yuangai Suwen's ruthlessness of "preferring to be a piece of jade, not to be a tile", and he is willing to drag Goguryeo and the Yuan clan to perish together, rather than suffer betrayal, made him feel chills to the bone.

The fall of Goguryeo is fine, but the Yuan clan is the bloodline, and there is no mercy at all...

A general boarded the tower again and reported in front of the gate: "The Tang army will arrive immediately!"

Yuan Gai Su Wen was calm and composed, with a bit of the bearing that Mount Tai collapsed in front of him without changing his face, he waved his hand casually, and said: "Just follow the plan, and I will stay here and watch you lure the enemy into the city to destroy them. Stand up for my Koguryo Erlang!"

"Here!"

The general got up and ran down the tower, and then a series of shouts sounded, soldiers and horses were mobilized everywhere, and calm returned immediately.

A moment later, there was a thunderous sound of horseshoes coming from far and near, and the momentum of thousands of troops galloping and charging made the tower tremble slightly.

In a moment, countless Tang soldiers suddenly appeared from the night before dawn, smashing the ice and snow on the ground with their iron hooves, and rushed towards the Seven Stars Gate in spite of the wind and snow in the sky.

Xue Wanche has always been brave, and at this moment he took the lead, leaning slightly on the horse's back, with a pair of eyes fixed on the Seven Star Gate in front of him.In front of the city gate, there were countless horses and horses, and the lanterns at the top of the city were swaying in the wind and snow. The dim light was blocked by the heavy snow, and it was hard to see how many people were there at the top of the city.

But the army marched here, only less than a hundred feet away from the city gate, but the enemy army remained silent and did not respond, which made Xue Wanche's heart throb.In this weird situation, it is obvious that Changsun Chong has already controlled the gate of the city. Otherwise, how can there be no resistance when the soldiers approach the city?

Sure enough, he rushed forward for several tens of feet, and within an arrow's reach, the thick gate of the Seven Star Gate suddenly opened slowly inward...

Xue Wanche only felt his heart jump suddenly, and a rush of blood rushed straight to his brain, and he yelled while riding on the horse: "Rush into the city, rush into the city!"

The soldiers galloping beside them didn't know that someone was responding at the Seven Star Gate. They thought it was a deadly battle but unexpectedly the city gate opened. Under the excitement, they didn't even care about what happened. They all shouted and leaped. The knife, like a gust of wind, rolled up the snow and rushed straight to the Seven Star Gate.

Under the city wall, amidst the wind and snow, thousands of troops and horses swept across the clouds, sweeping towards the Seven Star Gate like a hurricane, with overwhelming momentum!

Xue Wanche rushed to the Seven Stars Gate, and the dark Seven Stars Gate ahead was silent. He reined in the reins to slow down the speed of the horse, and commanded his soldiers to remove the rejected horses from the city. Seeing his subordinates pouring into the Seven Stars Gate like a tide, he felt a sense of pride in his heart , excited.

Needless to ask, after this battle, the first attack of the Eastern Expedition must be obtained by Changsun Chong.Attacking Ping Rang City will inevitably cause countless casualties and cost countless supplies. Now that the Seven Star Gate has been opened, the army has successfully entered the city, turning the most difficult siege battle into a street battle that the Tang army is very good at. No one can take away such merits.

But under Changsun Chong, the "righteousness of the first battle" belongs to him!
Even though the Seven Stars Gate has been opened, the hedgehog-like Ping Rang City is equivalent to being stripped of the hardest and most piercing shell, but as the chief general, Xue Wanche was the first to rush into the city without a feverish mind. He needs to sit outside the city to command and dispatch, They will not enter the city until the soldiers under their command have completely gained control of the Seven Star Gate.

This is not a question of prudence, but a matter of military regulations, just like the Chinese military tents must never be set up at the foot of a mountain or by a river.

Countless cavalry rushed past him and rushed into the Seven Stars Gate. The dark city gate at this moment is like a big mouth of a giant beast, devouring food continuously, but can't get in...

Xue Wanche's eyelids twitched, his excitement instantly diminished, and his intuition honed over a long period of battle gave him an ominous premonition.

Although Changsun Chong has already controlled the Seven Stars Gate, the Seven Stars Gate is too quiet inside and out...

In the final analysis, Changsun Chong was also a Tang man, so how could Yuan Gai Suwen give him unreserved trust?Even if Yuan Gai Suwen's eldest son, Yuan Boy, joined him, how could Yuan Gai Suwen not place his confidants in such an important place as the Seven Stars Gate, but handed over full power to his eldest son Chong and Yuan Boy?

No matter how comprehensive the control is, it is unlikely that the top and bottom will remain indifferent to the Tang army rushing into the city...

At this moment, Xue Wanche almost wanted to order to stop entering the city, but on second thought, even if there was some mistake, how could it be more dangerous than storming Pingrang City?Even if there is any ambush in the city, it is just a fierce battle, which is better than the losses caused by storming the city.

Thinking of this, he relaxed a little in his heart, but before he could order the soldiers rushing into the city to be careful, he heard a muffled "boom", and there was a scream from the direction of the city gate. In front of the city gate, like a blocked waterway, the charge stopped abruptly.

Xue Wanche was taken aback, shouted and asked, "What happened?"

In the distance, a school lieutenant rushed over and shouted: "General, something is wrong. An iron gate was lowered from the Seven Star Gate, completely blocking the city gate, and the soldiers who were rushing into the city gate were crushed to death and injured! "

Xue Wanche slapped his thigh, it broke!

Good and bad spirits, how can there be an extra iron gate inside the city gate for no reason?It descended again at such a critical moment, completely separating the Tang army into two sections. The soldiers inside the city had no way to retreat, and the soldiers outside the city had no way to advance. This was obviously an ambush by the enemy.

The soldiers who rushed into the city are in danger...

As soon as the thought came up, a flame shot up into the sky from the Seven Stars Gate, and then the shouts of killing rang out like muffled thunder, shaking the ground underfoot trembling slightly.

How did Xue Wanche not know that he was in an ambush?
He was so angry that he yelled on his horseback: "My eldest grandson and my son missed me! Hurry up and rush into the city!"

Since the enemy had ambushed in advance, those soldiers who rushed into the city must have entered the ambush circle of the Goguryeo army. If they could not get through the city gate in time to withdraw them, the entire army might be wiped out.

At this time, how can there be any "first merit"?If those soldiers were allowed to collapse in the city of Ping Rang, I would never be able to escape the crime of being greedy for meritorious deeds, even though the biggest blame for this matter lies with Chang Sun Chong...

The Tang army outside the city rushed to the city frantically, and planted gunpowder in the city gate to blow up the iron gate inside, opening up a retreat, and allowing the Tang army inside the city to withdraw.

At the same time, the city was suddenly brightly lit, countless Goguryeo defenders climbed to the top of the city, and arrows poured down from the top of the city like rain, enveloping the Tang army below the city.

Knowing in advance that Changsun Chong would open the Seven Star Gate to welcome the army into the city, the Tang army did not wear armor for storming the city, but focused on mobility, wearing only leather armor, intending to occupy the Seven Star Gate faster after rushing into the city and destroy the Ping Rang defense of the city.

Therefore, the arrows of the Goguryeo defenders on the top of the city easily penetrated the leather armor of the soldiers from top to bottom. Countless Tang soldiers fell from their horses in an instant, and countless corpses lay under the city, wailing and shaking the sky.

Xue Wanche's eyes were about to burst, but even in such a situation, he could not withdraw his troops immediately, otherwise it would be tantamount to abandoning the Tang army in the city...

"Rush up! Rush up! Blast the Seven Star Gate!"

Xue Wanche yelled angrily, and the captain in front ran back and reported: "General Qi, the iron gate is solid and deeply embedded in the city gate hole. If there is less gunpowder, it will not blow up. If there is too much gunpowder, it may even touch the gate tower." Let's explode together..."

The gate of the city exploded, and the Tang army inside the city had nowhere to retreat.

Where is Xue Wanche willing to give up?Those who rushed into the city were all his subordinates, even if he died here today, he couldn't just ignore it and escape alone!
