Chapter 4334 Send troops into the palace

The awning fell into silence again. The two of them each held water glasses and drank silently. They didn't speak for a long time.

Xiao Yu understood that Cheng Yaojin had already been honest, and it was impossible to persuade him to join the Jin Dynasty wholeheartedly, but he still didn't quite understand... Why was Cheng Yaojin's teammate Jun so confident?

Just because Emperor Taizong had a good eye for people, he thought that Fang Jun would be able to endure Tai Chi Palace in such a bad situation?

It’s a bit unbelievable...

After a long time, Xiao Yu put down the water glass and said, "Is there anything else you want me to convey to His Highness King Jin?"

Cheng Yaojin thought for a while and shook his head: "With an arrow on the string, how can we not fire it? If we take a step forward to dominate the imperial power, we will be trapped for the rest of our lives with nothing. No one will give up. It is useless to talk more."

At this point, King Jin will not retreat and cannot retreat.

Even if you know that there is an abyss ahead, you still have to keep walking bravely. Maybe there will be a single-plank bridge in front of the mountain stream...

Xiao Yu sighed, got up and put on his raincoat, nodded to Cheng Yaojin, got on his horse and returned to Yuanqiu overnight to return to Li Zhi under the escort of soldiers.

While walking on the road, looking up at the dark sky against the wisps of rain, I suddenly felt that perhaps it was not in vain that I forced Chu Suiliang to write that "confession"...

*****

The entire Youtunwei camp has fallen into a melee.

Many middle- and lower-level officers who were instigated by Li Daliang were unwilling to meet with Paoze at first. They were either from Li Daliang's old army in Guanlong or were inextricably related to the two. Because their interests had to stand. Li Daliang, but this is just because of his position. Who is willing to turn against Pao Ze who once fought side by side?

However, under the pressure of Li Daliang, they had to approach the Chinese military tent.

Gao Kan gathered about 80% of the Youtun Guard soldiers to guard near the central military tent. As the opponent continued to approach, conflicts inevitably broke out.

Tens of thousands of hedgehogs gathered together, and what they feared most was a sudden conflict. The tense nerves on both sides were disconnected in an instant, and a melee broke out.

They were all elites who followed Fang Jun in the northern and southern battles. Although there was a gap in the number of the two sides, neither of them were well prepared for the sudden war. There were countless casualties but it was a stalemate. No one could do anything about the other.

Gao Kan saw that the melee was inevitable, and his heart was burning.

The task given to him by Fang Jun was to manage the army well, but he was forcefully pulled over by someone when he knew that someone was secretly instigating and bribed and was ready, which caused the division of Youtunwei. How could he be worthy of Fang Jun? ?

Moreover, I heard that the scouts reported that the Zuo Tun Guards had assembled their entire army and were watching from one side. They could rush over to assist Li Daliang at any time and completely annihilate the Right Tun Guards, so I became even more anxious.

He immediately charged forward and led his soldiers to try to wipe out the rebels as soon as possible.

The sword flew across the sky, and in the face of being invincible, Gao Kan slashed at the enemies in front of him who were still in uniform during the day. His heart throbbed violently, his eyes were red, but he showed no mercy and rushed towards Li Daliang.

Traitors should never be forgiven.

However, more and more rebels came forward and fought bravely, slowly blocking his charge. They watched helplessly as Li Daliang stood not far away under the guard of a group of generals, but he fought with all his strength. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't get past it.

Although the troops on their side had an overwhelming advantage, the battlefield was limited to the camp, and there were tents and baggage everywhere, making it impossible to use them, and the battle fell into a melee.

On the other side, the Zuotun guards had been assembled and all moved out of the camp. Tens of thousands of people lined up in the rain to wait. Although Li Daliang had sent people to urge him several times, Chai Zhewei still stood still.

Chai Lingwu Ceqi stood behind his brother and couldn't help asking: "Why has my brother been so reluctant to send troops? It would be better to deal with the Youtun Guards as early as possible, otherwise things will change if it is too late."

Chai Zhewei held the horse's reins with both hands and looked at the Youtun Guards who were fighting fiercely not far away. He agreed and said disapprovingly: "Why are you so anxious? We and Youtun Guards have a hatred all over the world. Wouldn't it be more satisfying to watch them kill each other? You Remember, All fame, power, and wealth require our own strength to support it, and for us, the troops under our command are the foundation that supports everything. Preserving our strength should be our top priority at all times.”

Chai Lingwu was silent, thinking that if you understand so well, then why did you rely on Li Yuanjing to attack Xuanwumen before, and was defeated by Fang Jun and almost destroyed the entire army?

Of course, I would never dare to say this...

Chai Zhewei said calmly: "Wait a little longer and let them kill each other. Anyway, we can't follow Li Daozong into Tai Chi Palace. When Youtunwei is almost dead, we can take action and decide the outcome in one fell swoop."

Chai Lingwu could only obey orders.

……

Cheng Wuting led his five thousand soldiers into the palace from Xuande Gate, and then galloped westward. There were already shouts of killing and flames shooting into the sky at the Neizhong Gate in front. Cheng Wuting was anxious and kept urging his subordinates to speed up. However, before he could reach the Neizhong Gate to participate in the defense, he heard a burst of cheers and the defenders of the Neizhong Gate retreated like a tide.

Capturing a panicked soldier, he learned that Neizhongmen had indeed fallen under Li Daozong's fierce attack.

Without saying a word, Cheng Wuting led his soldiers to retreat towards the Ganlu Hall. The northern part of Taiji Palace is vast, with few buildings and empty terrain. A mere five thousand people could not intercept all the rebels, so they could only retreat to the Ganlu Palace area and rely on the buildings to block the rebels.

When they were about to arrive at Ganlu Palace, Cheng Wuting suddenly remembered something, called his own soldiers, and ordered: "Detach five hundred people and rush to Shujing Palace immediately to inform His Highness Changle that the rebels have entered the palace. You will escort His Highness to Wude Palace. No room for error!”

"Here!"

After receiving the order, the soldiers quickly gathered their troops and ran towards Shujing Palace.

Today, the scandal between Fang Jun and Princess Changle has long been known in the streets, and everyone knows about the ambiguous relationship between the two. As Fang Jun's troops, how could Princess Changle be allowed to endure the slightest danger?

Cheng Wu was relieved. If Princess Changle didn't have time to evacuate and was caught by the rebels, it would be troublesome.

Don't say that this is just a mutiny and the leader of the rebels is the King of Jin. He will not destroy the Tai Chi Palace, let alone massacre. A war is a war. The soldiers were so excited in the battle that they risked their lives. Very soon. It is easy to do extreme things. Once a palace is occupied by rebels, they can rob, burn, rape... anything.

Rushing all the way to Ganlu Hall, there are already forbidden troops guarding here, and they have gathered up the defenders of the Neizhongmen who are constantly fleeing. Together with Cheng Wuting who has arrived, the number reaches seven or eight thousand, and they are waiting in formation.

However, although there are many people, they still have to guard a defense line that is hundreds of feet long. It is difficult to prevent the rebels from attacking weak points and breaking through. Behind them is the Dragon Palace, and to the south is the Wude Palace...


In the dark night, countless torches swarmed from the north and crashed into the defenders' lines.

Cheng Wuting waved his sword and shouted: "Array! Fight to the death!"

boom! The rebels came in like an overwhelming tide, and the two sides fought in one place without any buffer.

Li Daozong and Yu Wenshi slowly followed behind, with scouts constantly reporting back the battle situation ahead.

Hearing that Cheng Wuting had led five thousand troops outside Xuande Gate into the palace to participate in the defense of Ganlu Palace, Yu Wenshiji was a little worried: "This son is a strong general, and his subordinates are the elite Youtun Guards, with strong combat power. If they are blocked, the situation may change.”

Soldiers are very fast. If Li Chengqian cannot be captured quickly, too many variables will arise when the Sixth Army of the East Palace outside the city reacts and massively reinforces them.

Li Daozong turned a deaf ear to this and squinted his eyes slightly to look at the Manna Palace under the night sky. He also asked the scouts about the battle situation and situation ahead, and then issued military orders one after another.

Soon, thousands of "Beiya Forbidden Army" gathered together to form a huge "front arrow array" and rushed towards the defenders' defense line on the left side of Ganlu Hall.

Because the defenders had to guard a defense line that was hundreds of feet long, their forces were inevitably spread out. They were violently charged by a huge number of rebels and suffered heavy casualties immediately. The defense line was in danger and could break up at any time and be rushed over by the rebels.

Cheng Wuting quickly led his men and horses to reinforce him. The sword in his palm flew up and down, slashing and stabbing as if he was entering an uninhabited land. Within a short time, his whole body was splattered red with blood.

However, when he was able to hold off the rebels and replenish the defense line, the enemy formed a huge "front line", and this time it rushed towards the defense line on the right side of Ganlu Hall...

Between offense and defense, the attacking side naturally has the greater initiative. Such continuous gathering of superior forces to launch fierce attacks towards the weak points of the defense line, sometimes in the east, sometimes in the west, although they are blocked by the defenders, it also makes the defenders The army was exhausted and the entire defense line gradually became loose.

……

In Wude Hall, the lights are brightly lit.

Li Chengqian was sitting at the main seat, wearing a black robe and a crewneck on his head. His face was indifferent and his eyes were calm. It seemed that the chaotic situation in the Tai Chi Palace did not affect him in the slightest. It has some meaning of "Taishan collapses in front of you but your face does not change"...

In front of him, Li Ji, Li Xiaogong, Liu Jie, Ma Zhou and other civil and military officials stood on the left and right.

Li Xiaogong looked remorseful and said sarcastically: "How could Chengfan be so confused? His Majesty treated him with kindness, favor, trust and trust, yet he relied on the rebels to do such treacherous and unethical things. It's unbelievable! Weak ministers are for precaution, not for future generations." Being able to detect his rebellious intentions in advance will cause His Majesty to be in danger, which is a crime of death!"

As he spoke, he knelt on the ground and cried bitterly.

In fact, he had already noticed that something was wrong with Li Daozong and had hinted it to Li Chengqian, but Li Chengqian didn't take it seriously. Now that Li Daozong has rebelled and led his army into the Xuanwu Gate, he can't say that this is your Majesty's fault. If you don't listen to others, you will bring it upon yourself, right?

The fault can only be borne by him as a minister...

Li Chengqian said warmly: "Uncle Wang, why are you doing this? Please get up quickly! People's hearts are far away from each other. Li Daozong has evil intentions and rebellion. How can he let Uncle Wang detect it in advance? Don't blame yourself. In such a crisis, Uncle Wang's help is still needed. I will turn the tide and stabilize the country!”

A servant on the side came forward, helped Li Xiaogong up, and stepped aside.

Li Ji came out of the queue and saluted: "The rebels are powerful and suddenly broke out, and all parties in the court were unable to respond in time. I request an order to leave the palace to summon the old troops, contact the garrison, and enter the capital to serve the king!"

Li Chengqian's eyes flickered, and he shook his head and said: "Young Master is the pillar of the country. At this time, you should be by my side to support military affairs and make suggestions. As for the rebels who seem to be menacing, in fact I have been prepared for it."

Li Ji sighed secretly, Your Majesty is deeply wary of him...(End of Chapter)
