I am Li Shimin of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 212
At this time, Huangfu Shoujian had already killed outside the east gate of the imperial city. According to the mysterious man, the captain who guarded the gate belonged to the emperor, so Huangfu Shoujian was confidently preparing to take down Miyagi, rescue the emperor, and establish a Immortal merit.

"Open the city gate quickly, I am Huangfu Shoujian, I am ordered by the emperor to enter the palace to protect, please wait and open the city gate quickly." Huangfu Shoujian shouted towards the top of the city, waiting happily for the palace gate to open.

Just waited for a while but did not see the city gate open, Huangfu Shoujian yelled angrily: "Open the city gate soon, it will delay the big event, I will take you as a question!"

What responded to him was a cold rain of arrows. Thousands of crossbowmen suddenly appeared on the top of the city, and they shot arrows at the rebels led by Huangfu Shoujian without hesitation.

Thousands of icy arrows turned into a dense rain of arrows, "咻咻咻..." whistling.

Unprepared, the rebels were killed and turned on their backs. They fled in all directions like a pan of scattered sand. Huangfu Shoujian also fell off his horse with two arrows in his body. Under the cover of a group of guards, he retreated hastily.

"There is an ambush, retreat quickly..."

Only then did Huangfu Shoujian realize that he might have been tricked. The man in black representing the emperor must be Li Shimin's spy, or he was bought by Li Shimin.

Just as Huangfu Shoujian and others fled in embarrassment, the [-] troops led by Dian Wei had already killed them and blocked all the enemies at the gate of the city.

Dian Wei shouted without hesitation: "The lord has an order, rebels, kill without mercy!"

"Ho Ho Ho..." The Chang'an garrison marched majesticly, with long halberds standing horizontally, and charged at the enemy.

Unsurprisingly, the rebels who were already homeless dogs were no match for the Bingzhou army at all, and were killed helplessly. Some rebels tried to kneel down and beg for mercy, but the Bingzhou soldiers were unmoved, and the sharp horizontal knives were still slashing Over their necks, their heads rolled and their blood flowed like rivers.

At this time, the lieutenant general at the side said to Dian Wei: "General, Mr. Xu Shu has sent a message that we must capture Huangfu Shoujian alive, saying that it will be of great use to the lord."

"Hmm..." Dian Wei grunted gruffly. As he spoke, he rode his horse into the enemy's army and headed straight for the enemy's chief general. The huge lethality caused waves among the enemy, and the rebels hurriedly evaded. Into no man's land.

Huangfu Shoujian was horrified when he saw the enemy general Dian Wei approaching him. He knew that Dian Wei's martial arts skills were not weaker than those of the other generals, and his three-legged cat kung fu was no match for him.

However, no matter how hard I struggled, it was useless, and I simply closed my eyes and waited for death, waiting for the judgment of fate.

"Buzz buzz..." The loud sound of weapons clanging echoed in his ears, Huangfu Shoujian opened his eyes suspiciously, and found that the iron halberd was lying across his neck, and he was not dead yet.The guards around him had already fallen to the ground.

I was captured by the enemy...

…………

Liu Xie, who was in the palace hall, anxiously waited for the good news. He believed that his Uncle Zhao would not disappoint him. He believed that the power of ministers loyal to him was enormous, and he believed that he would regain control of the country just around the corner.

Hearing the shouts of killing outside the palace gate, he thought that Huangfu Shoujian had already entered the palace, and Liu Xie waited expectantly, but when he didn't see Huangfu Shoujian enter the city, he felt a little uneasy, and hurriedly asked the little eunuch Go out and find out the news.

Not long after, the little eunuch hurried back and said in a panic, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, something is wrong."

"What are you panicking about? Tell me slowly, what's the matter?" Liu Xie asked calmly after all, having seen heavy wind and heavy rain.

"Your Majesty, I just found out that General Huangfu Shoujian's army was defeated by Dian Wei, and he was also captured." The little eunuch said weeping.

"What? How did this happen." Liu Xie sat there with blank eyes, and failed again, which made him feel a strong sense of frustration.

"Where's Uncle Zhao? Why don't you come to see me? What about others? Ah!" Liu Xie roared.

The little eunuch replied tremblingly: "Your Majesty, Mr. Zhao hasn't shown up for a long time. I don't know where he went?"

"Hiss..." Liu Xie realized at this time that he might have been tricked again, and hurriedly asked, "Where is that little eunuch surnamed Li under Uncle Zhao? Where did he go?"

"Your Majesty, I saw that Li Si early this morning. I don't know where he is now?" the little eunuch said timidly.

"What? Missing?" Liu Xie sat slumped on the dragon chair, and only then realized that this little eunuch surnamed Li had been bought by Li Shimin, and his every move was under Li Shimin's nose.

fear.

Endless fear harassed his whole body, bursts of fear made him fall into the abyss, and he seemed to have lost all fighting spirit in an instant.

"No, I will never give up, Li Shimin, until the last moment, no one knows who will win the game, we will wait and see." Liu Xie said bitterly.

…………

After this rebellion, under Li Shimin's instruction, Dian Wei took the opportunity to uproot the gentry who participated in the rebellion. The Liu family and the Wei family and other gentry families were confiscated, all the family properties were confiscated, the men were beheaded, and the women were sent to the frontier.

All of a sudden, there was a lot of turmoil in Chang'an, and some families were trembling, for fear that Li Shimin's butcher's knife would fall on them.In a short period of time, he no longer dared to try to participate in the battle among the princes.

After this suppression, Liu Xie seemed to be much more honest, and no longer acted rashly.It is not good to be too tough on the emperor Li Shimin, and he will not take action against him for the time being.

However, for the Huangfu family who also participated in the rebellion, Li Shimin didn't seem to do anything. He just locked Huangfu Shoujian secretly in the sky prison and prevented anyone from contacting him. On the other hand, he sent troops to surround the Huangfu family, but did not rush in.

From others' point of view, it seems that it is not to exterminate the Huangfu family, but to protect them.

Many gentry families in Chang'an turned their attention to the Huangfu family. In this Chang'an storm, the Huangfu family who participated in the whole process were able to retreat completely. Other families ransacked their homes and wiped out their families, but their family was safe and sound.

You say there is nothing tricky in it, who can believe it?
This is exactly Li Shimin's strategy.

…………

After sweeping away the enemies in Chang'an, Li Shimin will soon mobilize more than 3 troops from Chang'an to Tongguan and Huayin to prevent Cao Cao from jumping over the wall and attacking the pass.

Guanzhong is Li Shimin's foundation, and there must be no loss.

And with the few people who raided Chang'an this time, Li Shimin harvested millions of gold and millions of grains, and immediately ordered to continue to recruit soldiers in Guanzhong, recruit at least [-] soldiers, and hand them over to Dian Wei for training. The strength in hand is still very limited.

In order to conquer the world, we must continue to expand our army and prepare for war.

…………

At this time, a brutal siege battle was staged at the head of Luoyang City. Cao Cao, who was all ready, did not hesitate and immediately ordered the army to attack the city.
