Chapter 248(2/2)
But a large house in the city was brightly lit, and there was a birthday party for Gan Wenkui on the patrol road and military preparation platform. All the prominent officials and gentry in the city went to celebrate.
Not only did Xiangyang garrison deputy general Qi Shangyou and his officers come, but so did Wang Guangtai and others who were stationed outside the city.
At the city gate, a group of soldiers were enduring mosquito bites and drinking the cool breeze.
"What time is it?"
"About Xuzheng (8pm)"
"All Men Are Brothers!"
"Brothers working together can cut through gold!"
"What are you talking about?"
What responded to him was a flash of sword light.
Several city gate guards suddenly drew their swords and slashed people, then opened the city gate, raised their lanterns and shook them.
Outside the city, three thousand Yunyang soldiers who had already been fully armed and recharged received the signal and quietly entered the city.
The banquet was still going on in the city, but soldiers and horses outside the city had already entered.
Suddenly, fire broke out in countless places in the city, and people with red scarves on their foreheads and arms were everywhere. They shouted the slogan "We are brothers everywhere" and rushed out.
Yunyang's soldiers went straight to the banquet mansion and hacked their way in.
Everyone at the banquet was panicking, but the Wang Xingtai brothers stood up with a big smile and welcomed their subordinates in.
"Surround the courtyard and don't let anyone escape!"
Brothers Wang Guangtai raised their swords and in the banquet hall, they cut down Gan Wenkui, the patrol officer, Yang Kuang, the prefect of Xiangyang, Li Shifa, the official of Xiangyang, and Pan Chaoyou, the magistrate of Xiangyang. They also captured Qi Shangyou, the deputy commander-in-chief.
After one night, Xiangyang City returned to calm, but the owner had changed.
The green camp flag was taken down and replaced with the bright sun and moon flag hanging high.
Wen Anzhi was invited to the Xiangyang government office to take charge of affairs.
