Zhu Changxiao's version of the Sui Dynasty

Chen Bing defeated four charges in a row. Prime Minister Kong Fan was shocked when he learned that Han Qinhu and his troops were approaching Zhuque Gate and hurriedly withdrew his troops.

General Ren Zhong tried hard to persuade Prime Minister Kong Fan. After all, Kong Fan was a scholar and was greedy for life and afraid of death. He just left one sentence:"I'll let you wait."

Kong Fan didn't look back and fled in a hurry, causing chaos in Chen Jun's formation. Xiao Mohe felt aggrieved when he saw Kong Fan escaping. He thought to himself that the emperor was secretly having sex with his concubine, so why should I sacrifice my life? In a ball.

Only General Fan Yi led his troops to fight. At this time, Chen Bing's fighting spirit was shaken. Seeing the battle, many soldiers scattered and fled. Fan Yi was trapped in the Sui soldiers and had trouble keeping his left and right sides. He fought several battles with He Ruobi, but was pulled off his horse by He Ruobi. The soldiers on the left and right rushed forward bravely and captured Fan Yi alive.

The more Chen Bing retreated, the more chaotic they were. They panicked and were trampled by people. The veteran Xiao Mohe's horse was crowded among them and could not escape. Lai Hu'er chased him and stabbed the horse's leg. Xiao Mohe fell off his horse and was captured.

When Ren Zhong saw that Chen Bing was gone, he had no choice but to retreat into the city. Lu Guangda, who had already climbed to the top of the city, shouted to Ren Zhong:"Please run away, your majesty, I will stop you." Ren Zhong bowed to the city in return and went to the palace.

Ren Zhong ran to the palace, where Empress Chen was entangled with Zi Chai. She was so lustful and lustful that she could not remember the war outside the city. When an eunuch reported the defeat of Chen's army, Chen Shubao was so frightened that he got up, dressed, and came to see Ren Zhong.

When Ren Zhong saw his master, he knelt on his knees and said:"Your Majesty, we are defeated. The army of 100,000 is completely destroyed.""

"ah?" Empress Chen jumped up from the dragon chair. Her eyes were straight with fright, her hands and feet were in panic, and she asked:"What can we do now?" Ren Zhong's eyes were filled with tears and he shook his head, speechless.

When Empress Chen saw that Ren Zhong was helpless, he jumped around anxiously. In desperation, Empress Chen said to the eunuchs around him:"Hurry up. Bring me my baby."

After a while, a group of young eunuchs carried out two large wooden boxes. When the boxes were opened, Ren Zhong looked inside and saw that they were filled with several large boxes of gold. Empress Chen said:"This is my heart, my dear. Hurry up and reward the soldiers, hurry up and save me."After saying that, Empress Chen sat on the ground and started crying. The tears couldn't stop flowing.

Ren Zhong looked at the large boxes full of gold, sighed, and said with a bow:"Your Majesty, don't worry, I will do my best."

Ren Zhong carried several boxes of gold out of the Zhuque Gate and walked all the way to Shizigang. He thought to himself, I am loyal to Master Chen and have been loyal and good throughout my life. However, Master Chen is a fatuous and incompetent person who has harmed the country and the people. Now the military is The defeat is like a mountain. The big thing is over. How can we save the world?

When I was in trouble, I suddenly saw a target of men and horses approaching from the distance. I took a closer look and saw that it was none other than Luzhou. There was a word"Han" embroidered on the green battle flag. It was Luzhou. Han Qinhu, the general manager, led his troops to kill.

Ren Zhong was anxious and wise. He secretly thought that the Sui army was going around to recruit people to surrender. If he gave a few boxes of gold to the Sui army, Chen Shubao might be left with a way to survive. The plan came from his heart, so Ren Zhong hurriedly led his men. , blocked the road and surrendered.

At this time, Han Qinhu had joined Fan Zigai and Du Yan's soldiers and horses, and they joined forces to kill Jiankang. Seeing someone in front, Han Qinhu sent an order to stop moving forward, and took a closer look. The soldiers and horses of Chen State knelt down and begged to surrender. As they approached, Han Qinhu asked,"Who are you?" Kneeling here, do you really want to surrender?

Ren Zhong replied:"The guilty minister Ren Zhong came here to give money and surrender.""

Behind Han Qinhu were Fan Zigai and Du Yan. Fan Zigai asked:"If you want to surrender, why do you bring a lot of gold?"

Ren Zhong told his ministers about the gold rewarded by Empress Chen and asked for help. Several Chen soldiers opened the wooden box, and Han Qinhu and others looked inside. It was indeed a box full of gold.

Han Qinhu turned over and dismounted. He came over and helped Ren Zhong up and said:"Since the general has sincerely surrendered, please lead the way to Jiankang City."

Ren Zhongyan said:"When the general breaks the city, all he wants is not to hurt my lord." Han Qinhu nodded, and Ren Zhong led Han Qinhu's troops straight to Jiankang City.

When they were about to reach the city, Han Qinhu saw from a distance that there were still many Chen soldiers guarding the city, so he said to Ren Zhong:"I ordered The subordinates changed into the clothes of the general's entourage, and General Ren was introduced into the city. They coordinated inside and outside to attack the Zhuque Gate."

Ren Zhong said:"The general captured Zhuque Gate and marched north from Wuyi Lane to the palace city."

Sui general Du Yan followed Ren Zhong, led a group of elite soldiers, changed the Chen Bing decoration, and sneaked into the Zhuque Gate. The guard Cai Zheng didn't notice anything.

Only a guard soldier said:"Why don't the soldiers have leggings?"It turns out that the soldiers of the Chen Dynasty all wore white cloth leggings, but the soldiers of the Sui army did not have this habit. Cai Zheng saw that it was indeed the case and shouted:"The spies have entered the city."

When Du Yan saw that he was exposed, he drew his sword and fought with Chen Bing. Everyone fought in a melee, and there was chaos inside and outside the Zhuque Gate. When Han Qinhu and Fan Zigai saw that the Zhuque Gate was in chaos, they sent out troops.

Their soldiers rushed into the Zhuque Gate and attacked. Wuyi Lane, which served as the capital of the Southern Dynasties for more than 300 years, was finally conquered by the Sui army. Later, Liu Yuxi, a poet of the Tang Dynasty, wrote a poem nostalgic for the past: wild grass and flowers beside the Suzaku Bridge, and the setting sun at the entrance of Wuyi Lane.

In the old days, Yan Yan was in front of Wang Xietang. , flew into the homes of ordinary people.

Han Qinhu and He Ruobi attacked the city from the north and south. There were also Yinshishi, Li Yuan, Qu Tutong, Qu Tugai, Yu Wenshu, Yu Juluo, Yu Ju Zan and other people who attacked the capital separately. Jiankang was surrounded by water in the important area.

Empress Chen did not wait for Ren Zhong to rescue the troops. Instead, he learned that the Zhuque Gate had been lost. The palace was crying and crying, and a group of concubines such as Zhang Guifei and Kong Guifei followed behind. Everyone around the Lord was uneasy.

Another eunuch came to report:"Your Majesty, something bad has happened. Li Yuan and Master Yinshi have arrived at the west gate. Before he finished speaking, Yuan Xian, the old minister, stumbled over and said,"Your Majesty, Han Qinhu has already attacked the imperial city." Chen

Shubao knew that there was nothing he could do to save his life. He accidentally saw a dry well in Jingyang Palace and said to everyone:"My ancestors' inheritance has been destroyed by my hands. How can I survive in this world?""He ran toward the dry well. Yuan Xian, the old minister, grabbed his master and cried:"Your Majesty, please don't seek a short-circuit on your own. Empress Chen held up the old minister Yuan Xian with both hands and cried:"I never treat you favorably. When I see you today, it can be said that the pines and cypresses wither after the cold years.""

"Why don't your Majesty disguise himself and sneak out of the palace?"

"During the day, there were rioters, so I hid until night, when no one was around, and escaped with my concubine. After saying this

, Empress Chen jumped and fell into the well, followed by Zhang Guifei and Kong Guifei. Chen Empress and the concubine jumped into the well, as evidenced by the poem"Jingyang Well" written by the poet Li Shang. :

The remains of the well in Jingyang Palace are deplorable and will not last until Long Luan swore to die.

The water outside Wu Palace is broken, and

Xi Shi is still buried in mud. In front of the imperial city gate, there is an internal response from the Sui army. General Pei Yun of Zhige is in control. See the Sui army. When Pei Yun arrived, he opened the city to welcome the surrender. Han Qinhu led his troops to attack the imperial city without any effort.

He Ruobi was under Jiugong's command at the north gate, and Chen General Lu Guangda held on desperately. Seeing that the sun was fading, and the soldiers suffered heavy casualties, He Ruobi He became more and more anxious and said to Xiao Jue, Lai Hu'er and Zhao Xiuluo:"If Jiankang is captured, I will kill Lu Guangda alive!"

In his anxiety, he suddenly saw a group of soldiers and horses coming from afar. He Ruobi took a closer look and couldn't help but be overjoyed. It was the brothers Yu Juluo and Yu Juzan, leading ten thousand elite troops, galloping to help. He Ruobi and Yu Juluo , Yu Juzan joined forces and attacked the city again. At this time, Lu Guangda on the city was already trapped and still fighting. At this time, a captain from Chen Bing came to report:"General Lu, it's all over, the emperor has thrown himself into the well."

When Lu Guangda heard about this, he was like a thunderbolt. He saw the sunset and the reinforcements from Yujuluo and Yujuzan under the city. Lu Guangda burst into tears, and with the remaining soldiers, he knelt down facing the imperial city. Weeping uncontrollably towards the palace.

At this time, He Ruobi, Yu Juluo, and Yu Juzan had already breached the Beiye Gate. The Chen soldiers were gone and fled in all directions. Lu Guangda, whose morale had collapsed, was captured at the head of the north city.

The sergeant tied up Lu Guangda, and Lu Guang Da's body was covered with scars. He Ruobi looked him up and down and said,"This man missed me. To celebrate tonight, I will kill him with my own hands.""

After that, the soldiers escorted Lu Guangda, and He Ruobi led his troops into the city and went straight to the palace. He Ruobi entered the palace in the north. The Chen family members were already scattered in chaos, and there were actually some eunuchs, maids, and mothers-in-law. Hiding in various places. He Ruobi shouted:"Quickly go to the inner palace to investigate!"

Zhao Xiuluo and his soldiers were about to enter the inner palace. They happened to bump into Han Qinhu's deputy general Du Yan and his troops. When they met, He Ruobi immediately asked:"How is the situation in the inner palace?

Du Yan said:"General Han Qinhu has destroyed the inner palace and captured Chen Shubao alive in the dry well in the palace.""

"snort!"He Ruobi said to those around him:"I fought four battles with 100,000 Chen soldiers and suffered thousands of casualties, but Han Qinhu took the lead. He Ruobi waved his hand and was about to leave when suddenly a military envoy came and shouted to everyone:"Marshal Chief Shi Gaojun has arrived in Jiankang and ordered all armies to strictly enforce military discipline. The thousand years of King Jin are approaching.""

The imperial city of Jiankang fell, and other places fell one after another. Li Yuan, Yin Shishi, Qu Tutong, Qu Tugai, etc. also led their troops to attack Jiankang. The remaining troops in the surrounding areas surrendered. On the 22nd of the first month, King Yang of Jin Dynasty When Guang entered Jiankang, his concubine Zuo and General Yu Wenshu personally greeted him outside Jiankang City.

King Yang Guang of Jin wore a helmet and looked majestic, holding a sword in his hand and a leopard-striped horse under his crotch. He was followed by King Yang Hong of Hejian and others. Internal historians Xue Daoheng, Zhang Heng and others entered the city together.

At this time, Jiankang had disappeared. Chen Shubao, the harem concubines, and all the civil and military officials were all captured. Gao Jun, Han Qinhu, He Ruobi, Fan Zigai, Qu Tu Tong, Qutu Gai, Yin Shishi, Yu Juluo, Yu Ju Zan, Lai Huer, Du Yan, Zhao Xiuluo, Xiao Jue and others came together to welcome King Jin at the gate of the Imperial City Palace. After everyone finished the ceremony, Gao Jiu said to Yang Guangyan He said:"Your Highness, the Empress Chen Shubao has been imprisoned in the Dejiao Hall, the concubines in the harem have been imprisoned in the Jingyang Palace, and the officials of the court have detained them in the Hong'en Hall. Prisoners of other palace people were imprisoned in each palace.

Yang Guang said:"Go to the Dejiao Hall first. I want to meet Chen Shubao.""

The generals followed Jin Wang Yang Guang to the Dejiao Hall. When they saw Empress Chen, who was already in his early thirties, they were trembling with fear and weak. Yang Guang walked closer with his sword in hand and asked:" Chen Shubao.

Chen Shubao trembled and replied,"Yes.""

"The six divisions under my command crossed the river on the first day of the first lunar month, and in just twenty days, they captured Jiankang and captured the monarch alive. If you were not weak and incompetent, why would you have done this?"

Chen Shubao didn't even dare to raise his eyelids, and replied in panic:"I...ah no, the guilty minister Shubao begs your highness to spare the guilty minister." Before he finished speaking, he knelt down and cried again, and kowtowed to the ground.

"Get up, get up. In the Sui Dynasty, the people were punished and punished, and they were recruited to appease the people along the way. The emperor's grace is so great, how can he not tolerate you, Chen Shubao? Yang Guang turned around and said to the generals:"Why don't we take this foolish king to visit the palace again and let him understand what the way to subjugate a country is.""

Everyone nodded, and a guard beside him picked up Chen Shubao and followed Jin Wang Yang Guang to Jingyang Palace. When he came to the palace garden, he saw the dry well in front of him. Han Qinhu said to Yang Guang:"The last general will enter the palace. At that time, Chen Shubao and several concubines were hiding in the dry well."

"Oh, it was a great achievement for General Han to capture Chen Shubao alive." Before Yang Guang finished speaking, He Ruobi beside him was dissatisfied and said:"How can capturing a waste alive be considered a first achievement?"

Seeing that He Ruobi was not convinced, Han Qinhu said:"Our troops have overcome all obstacles and are invincible. How can we not be counted as the leader?

He Ruobi said:"One hundred thousand soldiers are fighting fiercely with me at the north gate, killing four formations in a row. You are not invincible. There is no one to fight with you.""

"you……"Han Qinhu was very unhappy when he saw He Ruobi competing for merit, and the two faced tit-for-tat. Yang Guang knew that both of them were seeking the top spot and were a little jealous of each other, so he reconciled and said:"Capturing Master Chen alive is the greatest achievement; defeating hundreds of thousands of enemies will be overwhelming. In my opinion, there is no distinction between superior and inferior. The right person is Chen Shubao." The love between the palace concubine and the palace is so deep that even when we jumped into the well together, it was true that a friend in need was a friend indeed."

King Yang Guang of Jin praised Han Qinhu and He Ruobi, but the two did not dare to refute King Jin's reputation. Yang Guang changed the subject and humiliated Empress Chen to prevent the two generals from arguing over their merits. Everyone burst into laughter, but Chen Shubao was the only one who was ashamed.

At this time, Yuwen said:"Concubine Zhang Guifei, Concubine Kong Guifei and other concubines and concubines are all in Jingyang Palace."

Yang Guang nodded and said to Chen Shubao:"I want to see what kind of enchantress she is. You are so affectionate that you are willing to jump into the well." Yang Guang went straight to Jingyang Palace, where there is a dry well to this day. Therefore, later generations have poems and ironies to prove it:

The six palaces are full of tigers and spears. There are no trees in spring and no autumn wind.

In a hurry, I see the sentimental place, and I am willing to go to the well with the same cave.

I heard that the imperial concubine Zhang Lihua and other palace maidens from the south of the Yangtze River were in Jingyang Palace. King Yang Guang of the Jin Dynasty strolled over. As soon as he entered the Jingyang Palace, Yang Guang saw a poem hanging on the wall. The words were gorgeous and the sentences were beautiful, which made people marvel.
