Chapter 4341 Bravely Championing the Three Armies
All 108 squares in Chang'an City have been closed. Each square has guards guarding the entrance and entry and exit are strictly prohibited. Officials at all levels are on duty in the yamen. Unless there is an imperial decree, no one dares to walk out of the square gate. Wandering on the street, the end result is to be captured on the spot by the spies of "Hundred Qisi" and thrown into the sky jail. If guilty or innocent, he will be tortured to extract a confession...
Since the death of Emperor Taizong, the situation in the DPRK has been turbulent, with three surprises a day. From time to time, the gates of the square were blocked and the four gates were closed. The people of Chang'an gradually got used to it, and no one dared to cause trouble at this time, no matter how deep their background was.
Outside Chengtian Gate, the inner and outer three floors of imperial guards cover the entire Tianjie. When the King of Wei's carriage arrived, the imperial army made a passage and let it go straight to the Chengtian Gate. When the carriage passed by, it immediately returned to its original state, and the iron armor A forest of clanging swords and spears guarded the entire Tai Chi Palace so tightly that not even a fly could fly in.
Naturally, carriages loaded with soft treasures cannot go through the Chengtian Gate. They enter the palace from the Guangyun Gate on the west side and go directly to the Youzang Treasury. The things will be registered and placed there. They will be shipped back to the Wei Palace when the situation calms down in the future.
Li Tai got off the car in front of Chengtian Gate and happened to encounter the carriage of King Li Min of Shu.
Li Tai stood in front of the door, talking to Li Ji, waiting for Li Min.
"Don't you plan to enter the palace?"
"The princes entering the palace can satisfy His Majesty's worries, but the mission of the ministers has not yet been completed. They still need to go to Zongzheng Temple to meet with the King of Han to meet with several county princes to convey His Majesty's will to restrain the descendants of the clan."
Li Taiqi said: "Where is the Prince of Hejian County?"
Li Jidao: "I am assisting His Majesty in military affairs in the palace."
Li Tai nodded clearly.
This time Li Daozong rebelled brazenly and sent his troops from Xuanwu Gate into Taiji Palace. Not only was the government and the public in an uproar, but the entire clan was shaken and lost its voice. No one could guarantee whether anyone else would betray the emperor in the same way.
Li Xiaogong, who was the de facto leader of the clan, and Li Yuanjia, who was nominally in charge of the clan, could not escape the blame.
His Majesty did not necessarily believe that Li Xiaogong detained him in the palace and restricted his movements. He was more worried that Li Xiaogong would not be able to suppress the clan because of his unkind feelings, so he asked Li Yuanjia to cooperate with Li Ji to launch a suppression or purge of the clan.
Now Li Ji is best suited to do jobs that offend people. The more people he offends, the more relieved His Majesty will be...
Li Min got off the carriage and saw Li Tai and Li Ji standing side by side under the Chengtian Sect. He looked a little hesitant, but he also knew that the situation was tense and the rebels had already entered Tai Chi Palace, so he had no humanity and walked forward patiently. Go to see the ceremony.
"I have met His Royal Highness the King of Wei, and I have met the British Duke."
"Your Highness, you are polite. I still have matters to attend to, so please leave first."
Li Ji returned the courtesy, then said goodbye to Li Tai, walked to the soldiers, got on his horse and drove away.
Li Min was still very afraid of Li Ji. When he saw him walking away, he breathed a sigh of relief and immediately muttered: "Why do we have to enter the palace? The rebels have already entered the inner garden. If they rush into the Wude Hall, don't we still have to Escape? It takes a lot of effort to fart in leather pants!”
"Shut up, you!"
Li Tai glanced at Li Min, frowned and reprimanded: "You have been acting unruly and unruly all day long. You are dissatisfied and angry, as if everyone owes you two thousand dollars. Why can't you be more restrained? The situation is tense now. , be careful with your words and actions, and keep your mouth shut when you can’t speak, so as not to get into trouble, and no one can save you then!”
"Hmph!"
Li Min is not stupid and understands the meaning of Li Tai's words. Throughout the ages, whenever there is a struggle for imperial power, princes and princes like them are the most vulnerable to disaster. Even if they do nothing, they may be framed and implicated by someone with intentions. If they say a wrong word, they will be framed and implicated. It is possible that there will be no recovery.
But he is not too afraid of Li Tai. He thinks that in the past two years, you were the most fiercest in the fight for the reserve position, but now he suddenly turned his back and behaved like brothers and sisters, which is really disgusting...< br>
The two brothers entered the palace gate one after another and arrived at Wude Hall under the guidance of the chamberlain.
When I arrived at the place, I found that the other brothers Li You, Li Zhen, Li Yun, Li Shen and other brothers had been invited...
Li Tai sighed secretly.
The Tianhuang nobles have a respected position and unlimited power, but whenever they encounter changes, they are often the most dangerous and unpredictable, and they are often killed.
Fortunately, His Majesty is tolerant and will not be ruthless to eliminate hidden dangers, but if anyone dares to reveal even the slightest bit of disloyalty, there is absolutely no brotherhood to speak of.
*****
Outside the Xuanwu Gate, drizzle was falling, flags were flying, tens of thousands of people were fighting in the Youtunwei camp, the sky was shaking, and the situation was changing.
Li Fengjie frantically rode his horse to escape, running straight towards Chai Lingwu who was surrounded by the crowd, shouting: "Brother Chai, save me!"
Who would have thought that when victory was already in hand, the good situation would be disrupted by such a cavalry that fell from the sky. Not only was his father trapped in the rebel army, he did not know whether he was alive or dead, but the thousands of troops who had instigated the rebellion were also instantly defeated, and he himself was like a lost dog. Running for his life, as much as the extravagant hopes in his heart just now were, he was now as terrified as he was. The difference between the front and back made him almost spit out a mouthful of blood.
Seeing that the Zuotun guards in front of him were getting closer and closer, and someone from Chai Lingwu's side came to meet him, Li Fengjie breathed a sigh of relief. He turned his head and glanced while running, and was almost scared to death. .
But there were more than a hundred riders chasing after him. The leader was covered in mountain armor and had a mask on his face, waving his horse as fast as the wind. He was only three horses away from him...
Li Fengjie's soul was so strong that he waved his riding whip to beat the horse, and fled forward as if he was desperate.
Chai Lingwu had already seen Li Fengjie rushing towards him, and knew that the Li family and his son had made great contributions to the rebellion against the soldiers of Youtun Guards. The King of Jin was also very satisfied, although he always didn't think much of this guy. You're used to it, but you can't just watch him die in front of you, right?
He immediately ordered his own soldiers to march forward in formation, letting Li Fengjie pass first, and then formed a formation to block them, trying to block the charging armored cavalry.
In the field battle, the charging armored cavalry were almost invincible, but after all, the army in front of them only had a few hundred cavalry. Chai Lingwu believed that he would be able to block them. As long as he slowed down his charging pace, the left and right troops would flood into the Youtunwei camp. His army will annihilate it in an instant, and even a piece of iron can be crushed by him with one blow.
However, he still underestimated the impact of the armored cavalry.
With a "boom", the front cavalry slammed into the array. The kinetic energy carried by the running horses and the heavy armor knocked the four or five soldiers in front of them straight away. Then the knight on the horse held the horse with one hand. The reins clamped the horse's belly with its legs, and the war horse jumped into the air with all four hooves. In the blink of an eye, it was behind Li Fengjie. The horse's spur poked out, hitting Li Fengjie's back.
Only a shrill scream was heard, and Li Fengjie was stabbed across the body. Then the iron horse kept riding. The knight on the horse held the horse's shaft with one hand and struggled, then he picked up Li Fengjie's body and threw it hard on the ground. aside.
At this time, the cavalry behind him slammed into the array that was trying to block it. For a moment, the war horses neighed and screamed pitifully. Hundreds of people were knocked away. The others could not resist and retreated one after another, and the array collapsed instantly.
Chai Lingwu watched helplessly as Li Fengjie was picked to death by Yisha. The cavalryman rushed towards him with all his remaining strength. His face turned pale with fright, and his two legs trembled. He had no intention of competing with him, so he turned his horse and ran away. , shouting at the same time: "Stop him! Stop him!"
The soldiers on the left and right were all generals from the Qu family of the Chai family. When they saw Chai Lingwu, they rushed up without thinking and tried to stop the ferocious iron cavalry.
Unexpectedly, the iron cavalry continued to charge forward without stopping, and with the momentum of the charge, the horse's shaft flew up and down, stabbing and slashing with cold light flashing. More than ten people were knocked off their horses in an instant, and no one of them could stop him even half a step!
Chai Lingwu turned the horse's head. It was difficult for the horse to speed up instantly. He heard someone behind him shouting "be careful". He panicked and hurriedly lowered his head. Unexpectedly, his heart felt as if he was being hit by a big hammer. He felt a huge shock all over his body and breathed out. Holding it in his chest, the stars were dancing in front of his eyes and everything was dark, and he fell off the horse.
Fang Jun hit Chai Lingwu on the back with his horse and knocked him off the horse. The horse continued to charge forward. He released the reins and had his hands free. He stepped on the stirrup and leaned his upper body. He hung on the side of the horse and grabbed Chai Lingwu on the ground with his open hands. Lifting it up with his belt, he straightened up and sat back on the horse, placing Chai Lingwu horizontally in front of him, waving the horse's spear again and charging into the enemy's formation, as if entering an uninhabited land.
Such an aura of capturing the enemy general alive and bravely defeating the three armies inspired the hundreds of knights behind him to follow closely behind him and cut a bloody path through the tide-like enemy formation. Blood flowed out wherever he passed, and corpses were everywhere. , killing the Zuotun guards until they cried for their fathers and mothers, and ran like wolves.
However, tens of thousands of Zuotun Guard troops swarmed in. The further they advanced, the greater the pressure. Even with Fang Jun's supernatural power, he felt exhausted. Knowing that he could not be reckless, he turned his horse's head and led more than a hundred soldiers all the way. Kill him back.
With the sound of war drums and the mist of rain falling, the Youtun Guards saw their commander-in-chief descending from heaven with such a magic weapon to bravely defeat the three armies, so they shouted "Commander is mighty" in unison, the sound shook the sky and the momentum was overwhelming.
Returning to the Chinese army's tent, Fang Jun threw Chai Lingwu on the ground and ordered: "Tie this guy up, don't hurt his life."
"Here!"
A soldier came forward and pulled Chai Lingwu up and tied him up. Chai Lingwu was thrown to the ground and was shaken. He woke up after being beaten by the soldiers again. He turned around and looked around to regain his senses. He hurriedly struggled and said: "Don't kill me. ! ”
Fang Jun sat on the horse and said condescendingly: "Don't worry, I won't kill you. Your life is still useful."
Unexpectedly, when he said this, Chai Lingwu remembered something, his whole body stirred up, and he struggled again. While struggling, he screamed loudly with splitting eyes: "Fang Er, you shameless thief, if you have the ability to kill me, don't even think of killing me with this." My life forces my father-in-law to do whatever you want!”
Fang Jun: "..." (End of Chapter)
