Traveling through the early Tang Dynasty starts with hanging

When Li Shan quickened his pace and entered the Xuanwu Gate, what he saw was that Su Dingfang had to personally take action and led dozens of personal guards into the formation to retrieve Yuchi Gong, whose Mingguang armor had been damaged.

Yuchi Gong was too impatient. Before Su Dingfang and Zhou Yilang could follow up with the follow-up troops, he charged forward and attacked fiercely. Although he forced the defenders to retreat continuously and thus completely captured Xuanwu Gate, he was still unable to do so because the enemy was outnumbered and we were outnumbered. Caught in a formation.

Li Shan secretly cursed, this idiot!

Under the current situation, as long as he can lead his personal guards into the Xuanwu Gate, the morale of the defenders is already unstable. With the cooperation of Chang He and Ma Zhou, he should be able to quickly subdue or at least control the defenders. Why bother to kill them in large numbers? !

Li Shan glanced around and saw that Liu Heier and Zhou Erlang had led their personal guards to outflank them from both sides, but the key was time, and they couldn't waste too much time here.

"The prince conspired to rebel, and he only obeyed the imperial edict to defeat the rebels." Li Shan shouted loudly: "Those who abandon their weapons and kneel down will avoid death!"

The so-called shadow of a famous tree. Although Yu Chigong's appearance was unexpected, it was probably within the range. However, with the appearance of Su Dingfang, many soldiers knew it. When Li Shan appeared, a large number of soldiers looked at each other in shock.

The connection between Li Shan and the Beiya Imperial Army is quite close. At the earliest, he and Su Dingfang controlled the Beiya Imperial Army. Last year, Renshou Palace and this year Renzhi Palace, the Beiya Imperial Army were also controlled by him, not to mention Li Shan's expedition last year. , selected a large number of generals and soldiers from the Forbidden Army.

The guards of the right prison, General Zhonglang and General Zuo, were transferred in the afternoon. One was a direct descendant of Wang Junkuo, and the other was a man secretly trained by the East Palace. They both raised their swords and shouted.

"Li Huairen conspired to rebel, and whoever captures his head will be given the title of Duke!"

"The prince has a destiny, kill..."

Before he finished speaking, Duke Ji Guogong Duan Lun in the formation saw the light of swords flashing behind the two generals out of the corner of his eye. The two swords stabbed decisively from behind. General General Ji lowered his head in disbelief and saw the sword coming from his chest. The tip of the knife is exposed.

"Pfft." Duan Lun knelt down on his knees without hesitation. As for abandoning his weapon, he didn't even have a knife or a gun in his hand.

Pulling out the long sword, Wang Renbiao unexpectedly turned his head and glanced to the side. A tall and thin young general also turned his head to look. The latter was not surprised. Everyone in Chang'an knew about Wang Renbiao's relationship with Alang.

But Wang Renbiao did not recognize this person. Over there, Li Shan was already striding over, surrounded by dozens of personal guards. Fan Shiyi on the side shouted: "Li Sanlang, come here!"

Li Qing was Li Shan's personal guard when he was in Daidi. He came from a noble family in Daidi. He was later recommended to join the Beiya Imperial Guards. However, he had no contact with Li Shan later. It was Ma Zhou who rode the Beiya Imperial Guards in Renzhi Palace a few months ago. He was severely injured and was brought in secretly.

After seeing Chang He and Ma Zhou open the long door with his own eyes, Li Qing made some assumptions. When he saw Li Shan appear, Li Qing immediately made a choice.

Wang Renbiao vaguely guessed something and ignored it. Instead, he turned around and held a knife and shouted: "Those who abandon their weapons will avoid death, those who resist will not be buried, and their families will be implicated!"

The two generals were beheaded, Ji Guogong Duan Lun knelt down, and the guard Chang He stood beside Li Shan. After a very short silence, the sound of clanging sounded continuously, and a large number of soldiers held their hands. The weapons were thrown away, some knelt on the ground, and some stood frozen in place and were at a loss.

"Ah Hei, you lead 200 personal guards to guard Xuanwu Gate." Li Shan had obviously made a plan a long time ago, "Zui Lang, you lead 200 personal guards to rush to Jinchengfang immediately, at least to capture Jingyao Gate!"

After a brief pause, Li Shan swept away the kneeling defenders and shouted: "May those who attack the rebels at this time come out of the Xuanwu Gate to support the Tiance Mansion."

There was hope in the eyes of many of the kneeling soldiers. If the prince succeeded in his rebellion and ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, the Xuanwumen defenders would not get much credit, but at this time, the merits would be different.

What's more, now that Wei Si Wang has invaded the Xuanwu Gate, it is no longer possible for the prince to succeed, and the risk is not great... Everyone can calculate this account.

Li Shan turned his head and looked at Chang He, "There must be people under the East Palace Gate among them, and there must also be Wang Junkuo's men. You need to identify one or two." "Ah Hei, you must guard the Xuanwu Gate. If the captives are restless, kill them immediately. Don't be merciful." Li Shan glanced at Duan Lun on the ground.

When their eyes met, Duan Lun immediately shuddered. He is still confused. Where did King Wei Si come from?

"Er Zhuhuan!" Li Shan glanced around and saw no one.

"Your Highness." Er Zhuhuan came quickly, threw away the bloody long knife in his hand under the vigilant eyes of several personal guards, walked close and whispered a few words.

Yuchi Gong, who was bandaged, came over and said, "I went to Jinchengfang..."

"No!" Li Shan pointed to the west and whispered: "You take fifty personal guards and rush to Linzhao Palace, the prince is there."

Yu Chigong's eyes lit up, he randomly picked up a knife on the ground and ran away... Well, this is the reason why Li Shanfei wanted to bring Yu Chigong and not let him go to Jinchengfang. This kind of thing should be left to Yu Chigong Good hands-on approach.

Li Shan looked around. Liu Heier drove a large number of prisoners to the east side. Chang He was selecting trustworthy people among them. After all, he had been beheading Xuanwumen for many years, so he still had some discernment. Zhou Erlang had already led two hundred guards out of the city gate. Rushing to the west... I don’t know what’s going on over there in Jinchengfang.

Li Shan felt a trembling feeling in his body that no one in this era could empathize with. This was the change of Xuanwu Sect, the change of Xuanwu Sect in this life.

But it was not over yet. Li Shan and Fan Shiyi led the remaining two to three hundred personal guards, led by Er Zhuhuan, and rushed south quickly.

In Shujing Hall, Li Yuan, who had gained countless gray hairs in just two days, was still sitting by the window, looking at the thick night outside and the guards of the East Palace walking back and forth from time to time.

In the past two days, Li Yuan thought about countless possibilities, and Li Jiancheng did not conceal what happened outside... King Qin did not enter the palace, but he did not leave Chang'an immediately, but stayed in Tiance Mansion. Tonight, Changlin The army has entered Jinchengfang...

At this time, there were rapid footsteps. Concubine Wan Gui could still remain calm. Wan Xuandao was already cowering in the corner in fear. Li Yuan looked back indifferently. Has the winner been determined?

"The prince has an order."

"Linzhao Palace?"

"The prince and Mr. Pei are watching the battle in Linzhao Palace."

After a few sentences, someone walked into the side hall, followed by more than a dozen guards. Li Yuan took a closer look by the candlelight, and suddenly smiled: "Er Zhuhuan, remember you were an old man from Jinyang back then, and you were also rebellious. Yet?"

"Yes." Er Zhuhuan took a few steps forward and came closer. "Back then, I followed His Majesty to raise troops in Jinyang. How could I dare to rebel?"

Before Li Yuan could react, Er Zhuhuan knelt down on one knee and said, "King Wei Si has led his personal guards to put down the rebellion. He has arrived outside the palace and sent his ministers inside to protect His Majesty."

The prince's confidant suddenly said these words, and Li Yuan, who had given up all hope, trembled and barely managed to avoid falling.
