The Legend of Shushan Xuanjian

Chapter 676
Hearing that Chang'an is like a game of chess, a century of life is invincible.

The houses of the princes are all new owners, and the civil and military clothes are different from the past.

Go straight to the north of Guanshan Jinguzhen, and conquer the west car, horse feather and book chi.

The ichthyosaurs are lonely and the autumn river is cold, so the country is thoughtful.

……

At the second watch, the drum sounded, and Li Zhen, the king of Siqi, put on armor and climbed up the tower of Jiuxianmen. (Northwest Gate of Daming Palace)

Siqi King Li Zhen waved the torch in his hand, and declared righteousness to the bewildered soldiers of the Habayashi Army: "Li Heng Lingwu usurped the throne, and he won the throne improperly. After regaining the two capitals, he did not think about repentance, and connived at Li Fuguo, Yu Chaoen and other eunuchs to disrupt the government. As a result, the Anshi Rebellion has not been quelled, and tens of thousands of Tang soldiers on the front line died in vain, and they died in vain.

Now Li Fuguo and other eunuchs conspired to poison the Supreme Emperor, endangering the Tang Dynasty!
Tonight, we should work together to kill Li Fuguo and other eunuchs, and support the Supreme Emperor to return to the throne, so as to stabilize the world!
If there are two heads and two ends, secretly assisting the rebels, all three tribes will be wiped out! "

The most important guard force of the Daming Palace, the Habayashi Army, easily fell into the hands of Siqi King Li Zhen.

After the mobilization of Siqi King Li Zhen was completed, Liu Congjian, the general of the Youbalin Army, led the Youbalin Army to attack the inner court from the northwest corner.

Siqi Wang Li Zhen stayed at Jiuxian Gate to take command, ready to respond at any time.

In an instant, the sound of killing in the silent Daming Palace shook the sky.

At the same time, Zuo Yulin Zhonglang General Liu Huan led his confidants to go straight to the Zuo Yulin Military Office of the Taihe Gate.

At this time, the general on duty of the Zuo Yulin Army was sleeping soundly, and before he could react, he was beheaded by Liu Huan and others.

General Guo Yingyi of Zuo Yulin escaped the mutiny because his elders were sick and asked for leave to stay at home to take care of them.

After Zuo Yulin Zhonglang General Liu Huan seized the command of Zuo Yulin Army, he led hundreds of Yulin Army and entered Daming Palace from Taihe Gate (the southeast gate of Daming Palace).

Zuo Yulin's army passed through the Longshou Pool in Dongneiyuan and came to Chongming Gate (the small south gate of Daming Palace).

Chongming Gate is an important palace gate that separates the "outer court" from the "inner court". Once you enter this gate, it means that the nature of the coup d'état has changed. The Tang emperor is an enemy.

Liu Huan and others rushed into the inner court all the way, smashing into many palaces and pavilions along the way, shouting to kill Li Fuguo and other eunuchs.

At the same time, Liu Congjian led the You Yulin Army through the Linde Hall to the south, and searched for the Huanzhou Hall, Chenghuan Hall and other sleeping halls.

Queen Zhang did not live here tonight.The Youyulin army searched all the way, but failed to capture Queen Zhang and her three-year-old son Ding Wang Litong.

The Youyulin Army had no choice but to tie up a group of court ladies and eunuchs, waiting for Siqi King Li Zhen to send them down.

As the guards in the palace were caught off guard, the two groups of Habayashi soldiers led by Liu Congjian and Liu Huan progressed smoothly.They broke through the gates of the palace respectively, drove straight in the palace, and soon arrived at Zichen Palace as planned.

At the middle of the night (24-2 o'clock), Siqi Wang Li Zhen, who was waiting anxiously at the gate tower of Jiuxianmen, heard the cheers of the soldiers of the Habayashi Army and knew that the coup troops had successfully entered the Great Neijin and joined forces in the Zichen Palace.

Siqi Wang Li Zhen immediately led his soldiers into the Daming Palace in a mighty manner, and carried out the most important task - to capture Suzong alive, and to kill Empress Zhang, Li Fuguo and their relatives.

Wang Daocheng, the inspector who served in other provinces, personally led the way for Siqi King Li Zhen. Wang Daocheng said: "Tonight, the Holy Majesty will stay in the Penglai Hall, and Empress Zhang will also sleep here."

When Siqi King Li Zhen arrived, nearly a thousand Habayashi troops had surrounded the Penglai Palace, and hundreds of burning torches illuminated the Penglai Palace like daylight.

Through the window lattice, one can vaguely see Suzong, Empress Zhang and others with disheveled clothes, disheveled temple hair, and a mess.

Siqi King Li Zhen laughed triumphantly, and shouted sharply: "Li Heng, you, Maweipo, instigated a mutiny and killed all the noble concubines Yang's family;

Now, you connive at the eunuch Li Fuguo, set up a secret agency Mastiff Guard, and arrest important court officials at will.Without the joint trial of the three divisions, the important officials of the court were sent to prison for questioning and tortured.What the mastiff guards did was a heinous crime, too numerous to write down!
Li Fuguo, Yu Chaoen and other eunuchs caused chaos in the court, causing the rebels to be unable to calm down, and hundreds of thousands of Tang soldiers on the front line died in vain.

In order to help the country and protect the Tang Dynasty!Today, under the imperial decree of the Supreme Emperor, I arrest you and bring you to justice to rectify the law of the country! "

Before the words were finished, the Internal Supervisor Wang Daocheng opened his mouth wide, and suddenly let out a low exclamation.

Everyone followed the prestige, and what suddenly came into view was a strange scene: stars appeared in the blue velvet arched sky, like a colorful and dazzling meteor shower.

The 'Meteor Shower' draws a perfect arc in the sky, whistling and pouring down like a storm.

"It's a bed crossbow iron arrow! Quickly line up!" The rebel soldiers were shocked.

The rebels were caught off guard, and nearly a hundred soldiers were shot dead by bed crossbows on the spot, and fell in a pool of blood.

General Liu Congjian of You Yulin Army has rich experience in combat and shouted: "Hurry up and put out the torches!"

Before the torches were extinguished, the second round of arrows was shot from the eaves of several palaces near Penglai Hall, and the soldiers who could not use their shields in the future were shot one by one.

On the roof ridges of the Qinghui Pavilion, Zichen Hall, and Lingqi Hall adjacent to Penglai Hall, figures of sharp archers appeared one after another.

I saw a rocket shot from the eaves of the Penglai Hall, and exploded when it flew into the air, blooming a huge, gorgeous and colorful firework.

In the Daming Palace, there were shouts of killing everywhere, and from the dark corners, countless heavily armed soldiers rushed out and surrounded the rebellious Habayashi Legion.This army has gorgeous robes, bright armor, and sharp weapons. It is the personal guard of the Emperor of Tang Dynasty——Qianniuwei.

General Liu Congjian of You Yulin Army was shocked, and said: "No, it's an ambush!"

Zuo Yulin Zhonglang General Liu Huan sneered and said: "We have nearly a thousand soldiers, all of whom are the elite of the Imperial Army, why should we be afraid of them?"

Most of Qianniuwei are descendants of the clan, and they have always been flashy.After Siqi Wang Li Zhen heard the words, he settled down.

In the light of the fire, I saw a young general, wearing a purple gold crown with three prongs on his head, a battle robe with a tiger head in Sichuan Brocade, a suit of suanni chain armor, and an exquisite lion belt with armor around his waist. In front of him, tall and straight, majestic and majestic, it is Zuo Qianniu Wei Zhonglang, General Bai Fu!
The corners of Bai Fu's mouth turned up slightly, revealing a contemptuous smile, and said: "You are already a fish, why don't you speed down?!"

Zuo Yu Linlang general Sha Chengzhong was furious, and rushed to the front of the formation with a shovel in his hand.

Zuo Qianniu Weilang saw Li Xiang killed the opponent single-handedly, and immediately stepped forward to fight.

The two sides fought in front of the battle, Sha Chengzhong was skilled in bow and horse, and danced the iron and shovel vigorously, like snowflakes covering the top, with great force.

Li Xiang couldn't help sneering in his heart.Under Bai Fu's training, his swordsmanship has already been simplified, from a dazzling sword dance to a sharp and sharp sword that kills people.

Li Xiang was not in a hurry to fight back. While looking for the opponent's flaws, he was like bending a bow, accumulating explosive energy, waiting for the fatal blow.

After three or five rounds, Sha Chengzhong's stormy attack was ineffective, and the speed of swinging the shovel began to slow down.

Li Xiang deliberately sold an opening, but Sha Chengzhong didn't know what to do, so he swung his shovel and slashed, Li Xiang dodged sideways.Taking advantage of the gap between Sha Chengzhong's moves, Li Xiang made a backhand sword, and the sharp blade slashed across Sha Chengzhong's neck.

"Pfft", blood spurted out, Sha Chengzhong covered his neck with his hands, his eyes widened, and he fell down slowly with an incredulous expression.

Qianniuwei immediately burst into applause.

One ebbs and another.The soldiers of the rebel army looked at each other and saw the fear in each other's eyes. Everyone was astonished, and their morale was suddenly shattered.

Several generals under the command of You Yulin Army General Liu Congjian were also full of panic: "When did Qianniuwei become so powerful?!"

Bai Fu is well versed in the art of war and has insight into human nature!
Seeing that Li Xiang had succeeded, Bai Fu immediately seized the opportunity and shouted to the rebel soldiers: "You are all loyal to His Majesty's old guard, why bother to follow Qi Wang Li Zhen to rebel?

The Supreme Emperor and His Majesty are father and son, how could they join forces with their nephew to kill their own son?

What's more, the Supreme Emperor is already old, how could he let go of the good life of enjoying his life, but come to the muddy water of the coup?

Li Zhen, the King of Qi, made a cowardly edict, you have all been deceived by him!Committed the great crime of exterminating the nine races!
The only way to do it now is to make up for it as soon as possible!
As long as you join me and turn around to wipe out the rebellious party and quell the rebellion, His Majesty will not only let the past go, but also give you more officials and ranks, and bestow your wives and sons!
Set up the merit of saving the world, just today! "

Bai Fuyan poked and prodded, the words were extremely provocative, and the rebel soldiers looked at each other in dismay, hesitating.

"Don't miss this opportunity!"

There was a flash of light in Bai Fu's eyes, he held up the Thousand Bull Sword given to him by Emperor Suzong, and shouted sharply: "Seeing this knife is like seeing Your Majesty!
What are you waiting for, don't do it, kill the traitor? ! "

The thousand bull knife is shown, as if the emperor of the Tang Dynasty came in person!

This was the last straw that broke the camel's back. In the blink of an eye, the weight of the balance fell to Bai Fu's side.

The entanglement of the rebel soldiers finally collapsed. The Habayashi Army soldiers only hesitated for a short moment, then turned around in unison, swung their knives and guns, and stabbed the rebel leader.

General Liu Congjian of the Youyulin Army and his confidantes were immediately hacked to death by some soldiers who turned their backs.

　Hearing that Chang'an is like a game of chess, a century of life is invincible.
