    Usually, at the beginning of the establishment of the dynasty, most of the generals in the Forbidden Army were selected from the elite soldiers and generals in the army.  But as the dynasty gradually became more stable, these people basically stayed away from the war because of their position, and many people gradually became corrupt and extravagant, living up to their courage.  And with the death of these backbones, positions in the army were gradually replaced by some people with prominent backgrounds but no talent and virtue, making the army gradually difficult to use.

    "Usually, the time for this degradation is not too long. It can take as long as twenty or thirty years, or as short as more than ten years. A soldier who has fought a hundred battles will be reduced to a group of bastards.  In history, the Chang'an Forbidden Army during the Anshi Rebellion, the Three Divisions Forbidden Army against the Liao Dynasty in the early Northern Song Dynasty, the Mongolian cavalry when the Yuan Dynasty suppressed the peasant uprising, the Central Army in the Ming Dynasty's crusade against King Yan, and the Eight Banners Army in the Qing Dynasty's crusade against the San Francisco Rebellion.

    It is now twenty years since the founding of the Sui Dynasty and eleven years since Nanchen was pacified. The soldiers in the capital have not heard the sound of war drums for more than ten years, their fighting power is slack, and their soldiers have no fighting spirit.  This is also the reason why Chang'an panicked and panicked when the Duliu Rebellion was three hundred miles away from Chang'an.

    Although the six guards of the emperor's personal army who guarded the Daxing Palace were well prepared and received the best treatment, the officials and assistants inside were either rich or noble.  Of course, these people are not the kind of people who are dedicated to their duties and train hard. They just click their thumbs all day long and then disappear after wandering around for a few moments.  So the Daxing Palace looks like it's tightly guarded, but in fact it's just like that.

    Yuan Ying has been guarding the East Palace all year round. He is no better than anyone else. He is also good at military affairs and knows a lot about military affairs. He also knows the true and false status of the Daxing Palace guards.

    The palace city is located in the middle of the northernmost part of Daxing City. The terrain here is low, hot in summer and cold in winter, which is really uncomfortable. After the Renshou Palace was repaired, Yang Jian and his wife spent most of the year away from the palace.  The weather has turned cold these days, and all the soldiers are huddled in the gates and buildings of the palace city. In addition to patrolling and performing official duties, there is no one who doesn't take the opportunity to find a place to stay warm.

    Therefore, Yuan Ying knew very well that the towering and indestructible city wall was the weakest defense in the entire Daxing Palace and the easiest to be broken through.

    The city walls of Daxing Palace are slightly taller than those of Daxing City, about three feet high (about 6 meters) and more than 6 feet wide (about 12 meters). They are all built with rammed earth. The wall section at the city gate is still intact.  Built with brick walls.

    Yuan Ying led everyone to bypass the observation of the sentry at the city gate, quietly entered to the west of Youchunfang, and approached the city wall.  From here, you can climb over the city wall directly to Wude Hall, and then they will have a place to stay whether they are advancing or retreating.  Then go straight west from Wude Hall and cross Wanchun Hall to the Zhonghua Hall, Yang Jian's residence.

    Yuan Ying understood that the prince was always violent and revolted, and the most important thing and the most lacking was time.  The prince had to catch the saint in his hands before the counter-rebellion armies reacted, otherwise everything would be lost after dawn.

    Yuan Ying selected dozens of soldiers who were light and flexible, each holding flying claws and hemp ropes, and lowered them up the city.  The entire city wall was silent and there was no sentry.

    After these more than ten people climbed onto the city wall, they guarded on both sides to cover the large troops ascending the city.

    Yuan Ying was also a thoughtful person. He knew that there was a high possibility of attacking the city tonight, so as soon as he decided to start an attack, he arranged for people to dismantle many flagpoles in the East Palace and put them together to look like ladders, making more than ten ladders.

    These ladders of different shapes and materials were lined up on the city wall. The elite soldiers of the former army climbed up the ladders, and soon they filled up the city wall.

    The leading general is Yuan Ying's confidant Long Feng. He is the most brave and brave among the troops led by Zuowei. He has excellent martial arts skills. He has followed Yuan Ying for many years and is extremely loyal.

    Seeing that there were more and more people on the city wall, and they would soon be discovered by the people of the Prison Gate Mansion, Long Feng ordered his deputy general Hu Yun to lead some soldiers to lower the city from the inside of the city wall and seize the Wude Hall.  He led his troops to the south, seizing Jianchun Gate and Zhonghua Gate, leading the East Palace cavalry into Daxing Palace, and at the same time blocking the only way for reinforcements to come to the south.

    Longfeng headed south and was soon discovered by the prison gate guards in the city gate building. But by this time, the Donggong Army had already taken the lead and was no longer afraid of exposing their hiding place.

    On one side is the sleepy and dispirited garrison, and on the other is the well-prepared and high-morale left guard who is leading a sneak attack on the elite.  In just a cup of tea, Longfeng had already captured Wudemen.

    The captain of the Prison Gate Mansion was sleeping soundly on the bed at this time. When he heard the commotion, he didn't know what was going on. He came out in a panic to find out what was going on. Before he could figure out the situation, he was struck to death by Long Feng who was rushing at the front.  .  The captain still looked in disbelief until he died. He was a guard in the palace, how could anyone dare to attack him?

    In the end, there were only two big words left in his mind, "Rebellion!"

    The blood on the city head flowed down along the cracks in the city wall. The city head was full of corpses, and the smell of bloodNose.  Many soldiers actually saw this kind of killing scene for the first time. They were so frightened by this Shura scene that they kept vomiting while holding their stomachs.  The veteran who had killed others kicked them in the back a few times, urging them to follow them quickly.

    War is cruel, and it never allows you to adapt to it in advance, but you must adapt to it in the fastest way, otherwise you will only be eliminated.

    Long Feng also ordered his general Bao Chong to seize the Zhonghua Gate to the west and cut off the connection between the front and rear dynasties.  He went south to Jianchunmen to meet Yuan Ying.

    Yang Jian was on guard against Prince Yang Yong taking risks and launching an attack, so he placed a tight security guard inside Jianchun Gate.  If the rebel troops in the East Palace directly attack Jianchun Gate, even if all the people come, they will not be able to capture Jianchun Gate in a short time.

    "It's a pity that neither Yang Jian nor the planner Yang Guang expected that Yuan Ying would not follow common sense in using his troops. He actually chose to cross the city wall and come behind the guards of Daxing Palace, and a center blossomed.  The Imperial Guards at Jianchun Gate were all guarding the front of the city and inside the gate opening, paying little attention to the two wings and behind.  Unexpectedly, soldiers suddenly appeared from one side and caught them off guard.

    While Long Feng commanded the soldiers to seize the city head, he also ordered his general Xiong Xia to enter the city head along the city gate stairs and open the city gate.  This Xiong Xia is known as the number one warrior in the East Palace, and his arms are extremely powerful.  Wielding two short boring machines, he rushed left and right, as if he was in an uninhabited land.  The Daxing Palace defenders were not strong soldiers to begin with, and they were all invincible. They dodged to both sides.  Xiong Xia fought all the way to the city gate.

    "Stop him!"

    The garrison general knew very well that if the opponent were to open the gate, the consequences would be disastrous. He shouted miserably from the top of the city, but to no avail.

    Xiong Xia gradually fought his way to the city gate, with corpses scattered everywhere on both sides.  He gritted his teeth, tensed up his whole body, and slowly pushed the city gate open. Immediately, a large number of East Palace cavalry from outside the city rushed in.

    The cavalry rushed in, and the people fell on their backs.  The fire at the top of the city burned brightly, making the sky red.

    Looking at the helpless wailing and ferocious faces inside and outside the Jianchun Gate through the firelight, the sky of Sui Dynasty was shattered.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
