At this point, Di Huchen no longer had the need to hide it. He turned his body and looked straight towards Sun Tu without any evasion: "You are right. I wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of you two years ago. However, those people were too useless at that time and were easily resolved, so they could only lurk and wait for the next opportunity. And this opportunity finally appeared again two years later. Li Xiang is worthy of being a famous minister of the Song Dynasty. Even in such a desperate situation, he is still loyal to His Majesty and still wants to take the chance.

"Since even a civil servant dares to do such a shocking act, I, Di Huchen, and the descendants of the dignified Di Wuxiang are not willing to be the descendants? Even if there is only a slight chance, I will not let it go!

"As for you to ask me why I did all this, of course it is because my Di family has been favored by the court for many years. As a loyal and kind person, how could I be with you a traitor like you?"

These words were truly righteous, and even infected Yang Zhi around him. He had already lowered his eyes and did not dare to look at Sun Tu below, but now he used his courage to look back at Sun Tu: "Master Sun, I am the same. Don't forget that I am the descendant of the Yang Party. My Yang family has been fighting for the Song Dynasty for generations. Even if I am unworthy, I cannot do anything that will bring shame to my ancestors!"

The two of them made such generous speeches that they really turned the momentum of the failure of the conspiracy. Even the soldiers and horses in the palace became firm and fearless at this moment.

Faced with the two of them, Sun Tu was not angry, but instead laughed: "I didn't expect you to be so loyal. It seems that the one in the palace has given you a little benefit. Yang Zhi, do you think that I put you in the palace to neglect you and don't trust you enough? You were wrong. In fact, after this year, I planned to transfer you out of the palace and let you go to the Western Army to experience it. However, you failed my efforts. I never thought that you would have resentment towards me because of this arrangement and even betray me!

"Do you think Zhao Ji and the court will really reuse you after this incident? You and you, all of you, think things too naively. If I were not for Sun Tu in the court, you stupid warriors would have been fooled by those guys with sweet mouths and a sword, and kicked away after being used. Having a free title is the best ending, maybe they would be cleaned and eliminated, and they would die without a burial place!

"After so many years, have you not seen the virtues of those civil servants in the Song Dynasty? You are trying to cooperate with them to kill me. You are so stupid. Since you are so stubborn and seeking death, then this official can only help you!"

As Sun Tu said the last few words, the soldiers beside him had already come forward and set up an attacking formation. In fact, many of them really didn't know that Sun Tu had made arrangements in this regard early in the morning, so they were still a little confused until now. Until they saw the actions of others, they realized and prepared to attack the palace gate.

Although they were outside the palace and the enemy's troops were even more powerful than themselves, these elite soldiers in a hundred battles were not afraid at all and were full of morale. As long as Taiwei Sun was still there, they would have the confidence to defeat any enemy and break through any strong city.

"Boardman prepare!" Seeing that the enemy was about to attack the city, Yang Zhi and the others did not dare to neglect, so they quickly issued an order loudly. Suddenly, hundreds of crossbows emerged from the palace wall, all aiming at the bottom.

But Sun Tu grinned slightly, and as expected, these guys gathered all the bows and crossbows here to kill him here.

In fact, even if he had suspicion of Yang Zhi and Di Huchen, he could not provide conclusive evidence to prove that they had betrayed him. He could make him make a plan to make Li Dai Tao Zombie, and he was sure that they had a killer move here. In addition to the fact that Li Gang finally reacted, it was more important that he did not see the crossbow after the battle in the imperial city.

This is obviously an extremely unreasonable thing. Since Li Gang has won over Song Jiang and joined forces with him, how could he not even get out a few hundred or thousands of crossbows? The only explanation is that the other party gathered all the crossbows and prepared to display them at a more critical location. Let me ask, besides the ambush in the imperial city, where can the lethality of the crossbows be better? The only answer is the palace that Sun Tu will definitely come to once he succeeds.

It was also at that moment that Sun Tu confirmed that Yang Zhi and Di Huchen, who were guarding the palace, had betrayed him and set up an ambush here. This was why Li Dai Taozun was the result of their identity being exposed with a substitute.

It was precisely because he had long guessed that there would be a large number of crossbows waiting here that Sun Tu naturally could not have no corresponding defense. Seeing that the crossbow above was aiming, Sun Tu immediately pulled his horse back and shouted loudly, "Baolu bullets, thunder arrows, let me go!"

After a while, the hundreds of soldiers had moved at the same time. The soldiers with crossbows raised their hands and aimed the crossbow machine that had been equipped with thunder arrows at the enemy above, and ruthlessly pulled down the hanging knife. The others struggled to smash the spherical burst bullets in their hands like raindrops. They had prepared these firearms early in the morning.

Suddenly, arrows flew everywhere and burst, and the front of the palace was covered by explosions and screams. After a while, accompanied by a loud bang, a section of the city wall was blown up and collapsed, causing the defenders above to scream and land.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Sun Tu took the lead and waved his spear in his hand and rushed forward. Behind him, the soldiers were all fighting for the first place, like a group of tigers and wolves who saw their prey, they rushed towards the palace guards who were already panicked and gradually lost their fighting spirit. These guards were not the elite troops who had followed Sun Tu for many years to fight. When facing such a situation, they quickly lost their resistance.

When Sun Tu rushed into the corridor and turned around and killed him, the city was covered with the enemy's corpses. Although Yang Zhi and Di Huchen struggled hard, they were ultimately unable to defeat the soldiers who rushed over from all directions and were quickly taken away.

When the sky was dark, the battle had ended. However, Sun Tu did not rush to deal with the two betrayers who had become prisoners. Instead, under the escort of dozens of soldiers and generals, he rode his horse step by step into the depths of the palace.

Behind him was a string of horseshoe prints dyed with blood, which were the blood shed when the palace guards died in battle.
