Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 3924
Changsun Wuji led a group of Guanzhong high-level officials to evacuate the command post from Yanshoufang, leaving Yanshoufang empty of troops. Sun Renshi led the army to circle behind Buzhengfang and raided to the east of Yanshoufang. The heavily armored infantry on the west side of the square formed a two-sided attack.

The Youtun Guards were originally strong and well-equipped, but now they were under attack from both sides, and the Guanlong army was attacked from both sides. In addition, Yu Suigu had just died in the army, which led to low morale and a lack of morale. They only persisted for less than half an hour. Lost like a mountain, completely collapsed.

Gao Kan rode his horse and galloped along the long street to Yanshoufang. He stepped on the bluestone slabs on the ground and galloped into the workshop, and soon joined Sun Ren's division who came in from the east.

Master Sun Ren wiped the rain from his face, came to Gao Kan, and said: "Changsun Wuji has led the entire command post to evacuate, and there is no value here. Should we divide our troops to pursue it?"

The Guanlong Command Post temporarily evacuated, and most of the troops stayed in Xishi, Yanshoufang, Chengtianmen, and Taiji Palace. The accompanying troops must be insufficient. If they can catch up quickly, it is very likely that the raid will achieve unexpected results.

Gao Kan glanced at the mess left behind by the Guanlong command post's hasty evacuation, without hesitation, he said decisively: "There is no need to pursue, order Wang Fangyi outside the city to lead the army into the city, gather the remaining enemies near Xishi and Yanshoufang, and escort the prisoners Go out of the city to guard. You and I will join together and go straight to Chengtianmen!"

He is no longer the idiot boy who came to join the army from the countryside. In the past few years, he has served as a lieutenant beside Fang Jun. In fact, he handles all military affairs, and he has already cultivated a different vision.I understand that although Guan Long provoked this mutiny, which caused huge losses and endless disasters, but with the constraints of all parties and the fact that the clans in Shandong and Jiangnan are watching, after losing almost all their private soldiers, the Guanlong clan may not be able to Beheaded to death.

Perhaps a plan for mutual compromise has been drawn up in the minds of the leaders of all parties...

So what if he catches up with Changsun Wuji at this time?Even if Changsun Wuji washes his neck clean and asks him to chop it off, he can't do it recklessly...

The results that can be harvested in front of us are still the elite of the more than ten thousand Guanlong troops in the Taiji Palace. As long as this army is blocked in the Taiji Palace and wiped out, it will be regarded as completely breaking the backbone of the Guanlongmen Clan. Being able to exist above the court, it is no longer possible to control the court affairs and influence the court situation as before.

Without the family of the private army, it is like a tiger without teeth. No matter how fierce it barks, it can only scare people, and it can't kill people...

"Here!"

Master Sun Ren took the order, turned his horse's head around immediately, and led his soldiers out of Yanshoufang, crossed Taipingfang, and headed towards Chengtianmen.

……

Outside Chengtianmen, the Guanlong army reserved troops here to meet the troops in Taiji Palace. The fighting in Xishi was extremely horrific, and Changsun Wuji led the entire command post to retreat from Yanshoufang. These troops became more and more impatient. However, the army in the palace was bitten by the Liu rate of the East Palace, unable to escape, and could not withdraw at all for a while.

These soldiers were panic-stricken, and they only hoped that the west market could resist for a longer period of time, so as to buy some time for the troops in the palace, so that they could retreat calmly, instead of fighting a deadly battle with the right guards just to defend the retreat route of the troops in the palace. .

To this day, who doesn't know that the combat strength of the Youtunwei ranks first among all the troops of the Tang Dynasty?
Not to mention that he defeated Xue Yantuo, Tuyuhun, Turks, Dashi and other powerful armies successively in his northern expedition and western expedition. It was just that Gao Kan led half of the right guards to guard the Xuanwu gate as solid as gold. Chai Zhewei's left guards, Li Yuanjing The imperial army and the elite army of the Changsun family all smashed their halberds into the sand in front of this half of the right guards, and their heads were smashed, which is enough to make people horrified.

However, nine out of ten things in the world are unsatisfactory, so what you are afraid of will happen.

Just as the Guanlong army outside Chengtianmen prayed to gods and prayed to Buddha to bless the west market to delay for a while, they saw a mighty force from Taipingfang breaking through the wind and rain to attack and kill them. The extremely murderous aura swept over the sky and covered the sky.

The soldiers of Guanlong wailed, feeling fearful, but there was no way to retreat, so they had to bite the bullet and line up under the command of their respective generals.

boom!
The Youtun guards who came rushing forward did not hesitate, rushed forward and rushed into the Guanlong formation, and the battle broke out in an instant.

The brave Youtun guards only wanted to quickly defeat the rebel army in front of them, and then occupy the Guanlong army in Chengtianmen's palace to block and annihilate them, so they didn't hold back when they came up.Master Sun Ren took the lead, riding his horse and charging first, swinging a horizontal knife in his palm, and charged fiercely into the enemy's formation, fighting hand to hand.

The Guanlong army gritted their teeth, barely resisting.

However, not long after, a dull sound like rolling thunder came from a distance. Wang Fangyi, who had been staying outside the city to defend Hou Mo and Chen Lin from killing a carbine, had led his armored cavalry into the city.The long street between Chengtianmen and the imperial city is tens of feet wide, with imperial ditches on both sides, covered with bluestone slabs and planted with willow trees, it is most suitable for cavalry to charge.

Division Sun Ren commanded the army to outflank the north and south wings. Behind him, Wang Fangyi led a thousand armored cavalry roaring forward. The iron hooves trampled on the bluestone slabs on the long street and made a dull thunderous sound.

boom!
The armored cavalry, covered in iron armor, charged with huge kinetic energy and strong armor, and crashed into the formation of the rebels. Wherever they went, the rebels were either knocked upside down or thrown The cavalry's spear pierced through the body, raised it high and threw it aside, and then was trampled into a ball of meat sauce by the galloping iron hooves...

Equipped iron cavalry rushed into the infantry array lacking spears and shields, it was like a pack of wolves rushing into the sheepfold, killing and harvesting at will, extremely fierce and arrogant!
The Guanlong army outside the Chengtian Gate was terrified at first, fearing that they would fight You Tunwei, but not only did things go against their wishes, they did not escape the battle, and they also faced the most elite and invincible armored cavalry of You Tunwei... The shaken military spirit and demoralized morale quickly disintegrated and collapsed under the brutal impact and trampling of the armored cavalry.

When Wang Fangyi took the lead and pierced through the enemy's formation with a spear in his hand, someone among the densely packed rebels on the long street and on the side of the city wall made a cry, and more than ten thousand rebels threw away their weapons and armor, scattered and fled without knowing what was going on. Before the right guards could pursue him, they had already fled from the Yanxi Gate on the east side of the long street and the ruined imperial city towards various Lifangs.

The formation of more than ten thousand people was completely defeated by the right guards with only one charge...

Gao Kan ignored these rout soldiers, the soldiers who had lost their guts were unbearable to fight again, even if they were forced to organize, they would exhaust their energy and energy, so there was nothing to be afraid of.

"Capture Chengtianmen, cut off the retreat of the rebels in the palace!"

"Here!"

Sun Renshi got the order and led his troops straight to the gates of Chengtian, Yong'an, Changle and other places. After a fierce battle, the rebels defending the city were defeated, and the south gate of Taiji Palace was completely captured, blocking the rebels' retreat in the palace.

……

Changsun Wuji and the others rode out of the city from Mingde Gate in a carriage, but before they reached Yuanqiu, they saw an army galloping towards them. They were so frightened that the accompanying soldiers were scared out of their wits. During the process, it was discovered that the person who came was Hou Mochen's private soldiers led by Hou Mochenlin...

Let’s say Hou Mo Chenlin was ordered to guard Jinguang Gate, but he was defeated by the armored cavalry of Youtunwei in one fell swoop. He was eager to preserve his power and did not lead his army to fight to the death. Instead, he fought and retreated. The coward was even more unbearable. He lost the Golden Light Gate without blocking it for an hour. Hou Mo Chenlin, who hadn't retreated far, even watched the Youtunwei flood into the Golden Light Gate with his own eyes.

Hou Mo and Chen Lin knew that this mutiny was completely over. With the combat power of the right guards, once there was no city wall to stop them, they would be unscrupulous and invincible when they broke into the city. No one could stop them. The defeat was only a matter of time. thing.

However, as the eldest son and grandson of Hou Mochen's family, the future head of the family has been trained in military and politics since childhood, and has a certain political quality.After thinking about it, he realized that although Guan Long was defeated, he may not be dead. No matter who controls the power of the Tang Dynasty in the future, Guan Long will still have some uses.

So he led the army back to a safe zone and immediately rectified the army, and then went straight to the south of the city, preparing to guard the Mingde Gate and meet Changsun Wuji and other Guanlong bosses.

In the end, he didn't expect the army in the city to be defeated so quickly. Just when he saw the tall tower of Mingde Gate, Changsun Wuji and others bumped into it head-on...
