Chapter 1037 Desperate
Under the palace wall, Yuen Gaisuwen was unmoved because he planned this mutiny, so he had long been mentally prepared to face Gao Jianwu.
It was even said that after he returned from the Tang Dynasty's envoy, the seeds buried in Su Cheng's heart sprouted, and he had been planning for it.
Therefore, he was calm when he heard what Gao Jianwu said, and even a little funny.
In his opinion, the reason why Gao Jianwu said these words was simply a helpless move with no way out.
What the king did is really pitiful.
It is impossible for Gao Jianwu to affect the morale of the army. Yuan Gaisuwen said loudly: "Gao Jianwu, do you think we launched a mutiny today for glory and wealth?"
"You are wrong. We are not glory and wealth, but for Goguryeo! for the millions of people!"
"You are cowardly and incompetent, jealous of the virtuous and capable, and you are appointing treacherous and slanderous. If you are a foolish monarch, you will be ruined by your hands if you let you continue to torture!"
"As for our official position, we are not lucky ministers, we are shot and killed by our blood on the battlefield! It is not your gift from Gao Jianwu!"
After hearing this, the generals suddenly realized, yes, they felt that the general was right, and their official positions were really attacked on the battlefield with one blow and one shot.
It was not because of the favored ministers in the court who were above the top by flattery, so it could not be regarded as a gift from Gao Jianwu.
So, the generals suddenly became calm. We don’t owe you Gao Jianwu!
Gao Jianwu felt a slump after hearing this. Yuan Gai Suwen was really clever.
Cui Zongsheng shouted: "Fuck, you ungrateful people, if you are not the king, can you have the chance to make contributions on the battlefield?"
Yuan Gaisuwen laughed sarcastically and said, "So, our martial artists should also thank the Tang Dynasty for fighting the capital so that we can achieve success?"
Cui Zongsheng was furious when he heard this: "You, don't talk nonsense, turn black and white. The reason why the Tang army invaded was clearly because of your Yuan Gaisuwen. Today, Goguryeo encountered such a crisis, is thanks to your Yuan Gaisuwen!"
"Don't you generals understand? Can't you tell the difference between black and white? Yuan Gaisuwen is the sinner!"
"The king asked him to be the commander of the army to make meritorious service! Instead of letting him commit crimes and cause trouble! Do you still have to follow the mutiny?"
Cui Zongsheng finished shouting, and he waited for the generals under the palace wall to react with anticipation. As a result, the generals under the palace wall did not react at all.
It seemed as if he hadn't heard him at all.
Originally, Gao Jianwu hoped that his appearance would make some generals turn against each other, but he did not expect that these generals would not respond at all.
Gao Jianwu's last little confidence was shattered.
Yuan Gaisuwen whispered loudly: "Now, only I, Yuan Gaisuwen, can save Goguryeo and millions of people!"
"Don't you understand yet? Brothers in the city, think about it yourself. If there were reinforcements, the reinforcements would have come long ago!"
"There are no reinforcements at all! The soldiers and horses of the counties outside the city did not obey the order at all! Why?"
"Because Gao Jianwu is a foolish monarch! He is a foolish monarch who betrays his relatives! Are you still obsessed with it? Do you have to be buried with him?"
The guards on the city wall not only changed slightly after hearing this, but there was still no movement from reinforcements. They had already realized that there was something wrong.
Even Gao Jianwu knew that it was impossible for reinforcements to come to serve the king and rescue the emperor!
He was already desperate.
He just wanted to find a way out in a desperate situation, but failed and no general in the rebels turned against him.
Unexpectedly, Gao Jianwu was arrogant all his life, and wanted to expand his territory and rejuvenate Goguryeo, and be a promising king who will be praised for all generations, but eventually became the king of the country that was destroyed.
"Rully traitor!"
"Haha, they are all traitors!"
"Yes, I have sent guards out of the city to issue an order, but the soldiers and horses are staggering. Watching the fire from the other side of the river is all fence-bearing, and they are all traitors!" Gao Jianwu said ruthlessly.
At this moment, there is no need to hide anything anymore, because there is nothing worth looking forward to.
The guards on the palace wall changed their faces again after hearing this. Since there were no reinforcements, what's the point of staying on the palace wall?
Isn’t that just killing you for nothing?
Cui Zongsheng couldn't help but change his face when he heard this, and he said anxiously: "Master, Master, can they dare to resist the order?"
"It's all traitors, so what's so strange about resisting the order? It's just that Gu didn't see their faces clearly, otherwise Gu would have executed them!" Gao Jianwu said with a hatred.
Cui Zongsheng said in a deep voice: "Since there are no reinforcements, then escort the king out and keep the green mountains without fear of burning firewood. I don't believe that the huge Goguryeo is full of traitors!"
Gao Jianwu said sadly: "Win the fight? Yuan Gaisuwen has an army of more than 100,000 or 200,000. How easy is it to fight out?"
"Gou is the King of Goguryeo. Gou does not want to hide everywhere like a stray dog! This is the palace, the palace of Gou, and Gou will not leave here!"
"If they want to kill the orphan, then come and kill!"
"I want to see who dares to kill me! Who dares to commit this crime of regicide will be recorded in history and will be cursed forever!"
After Gao Jianwu finished speaking, a hint of sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth. This crime of regicide is not so easy to recite!
It will be recorded in history, and the descendants will carry the charge of regicide!
The generals under the palace wall were really hesitant when they heard this. If they were asked to kill the monarch, they would be a little afraid.
Yuan Gai Suwen laughed and said, "Everyone can kill you, why don't you dare? After breaking through the palace gate, I will kill you, the foolish lord!"
"Brothers, keep attacking!"
The generals were very excited when they heard this.
"Run!"
"Kill!"
The rebels who had stopped originally continued to attack the palace.
Cui Zongsheng shouted: "The king treats us as kind as a mountain. Even if there are no reinforcements, we will fight to the death without retreating!"
"Fight to death and never retreat!"
"Fight to death and never retreat!"
"Kill!"
"Kill all these traitors!"
Cui Zongsheng and his guards fought with the rebels again, but their momentum became obviously weak.
Because not everyone is willing to fight to the death with Cui Zongsheng, because since there are no reinforcements, if you continue to hold on, you will just die.
Not everyone was willing to be buried with the king, so many guards sneaked away while the chaos was in the chaos.
One of them has increased and the other has deteriorated. The rebels soon attacked the palace wall again, and continued to expand their advantages, killing the guards to retreat step by step.
At this moment, everyone knew that the situation was hopeless, and even the eunuchs around Gao Jianwu sneaked away when they saw that the situation was not good.
