Tiantang Splendid

Who belongs to destiny
Xianyang Bridge is not far from Chang'an. After dawn, every convenience in Chang'an has received the news, causing a commotion.

When Li Zhi saw the battle report at Chengtianmen, and learned that Li Huaiqin and Liu Keman had bypassed the battle field and came straight to Chang'an, he immediately cursed: "An Yuanshou fought bravely and took the initiative to undertake the most difficult task to attack the left. In the Wuwei position, Li and Liu not only did not give support, but let An Yuanshou fall into danger and leave the position by themselves, it is a heinous crime!"

After scolding, before Xiao Yu, Chu Suiliang and others around him could express their attitudes, he immediately asked the scouts who came to deliver the battle report: "Where are Li and Liu now? Go to meet them immediately, and convey the king's order to let them hurry up." Arrive in Chang'an and attack Xuanwu Gate, now Fang Jun's troops are all in the Taiji Palace, Xuanwu Gate's defense is empty, as long as we can capture Xuanwu Gate and launch a fierce attack from behind Fang Jun, we will be able to pinch back and forth to make them lose sight of the other!"

Seeing Li Zhi's excited face, Xiao Yu and others were speechless.

Right and wrong, morality and justice are irrelevant, as long as Li Huaiqin and Liu Keman can appear outside Chang'an city at this moment, they are full of heroes. As for whether An Yuanshou will be wiped out by Zuo Wuwei's counterattack... then what does it matter? ?You Xiaowei has made outstanding achievements, An Yuanshou seeks benevolence and wins benevolence, and he will be affirmed with a grand reward afterwards, and then let his eldest son become the noble, that's enough.

The scouts got the order to come out, Li Zhi got up from the chair, walked a few steps excitedly, clenched his left hand and hammered the palm of the right hand hard, his eyes sparkled: "Hey! Duke Ying is really the leader of the country, even Li Huaiqin, Li Huaiqin, Liu Keman and these two can instigate, as long as these two troops reach the Xuanwu Gate, the victory will be completely established!"

He thought that as long as Li Jing and Xue Wanche led the army into the city, the mutiny would end with his own defeat, but after a night of heavy rain, the situation changed suddenly, and the situation abruptly reversed, which shows that he is indeed the one who "belongs to God".

What is "destiny"?
This is!
Xiao Yu didn't expect Yuwenshi and Yuwen Shi to go out of the city in a panic, and actually instigated Li and Liu in the blink of an eye, and An Yuanshou who took the initiative to rush to Chang'an made the situation change instantly. Come on, once the Mutiny of the King of Jin is successful, Yuwenshi will be regarded as the most important contributor. Not only his own merits and power will reach the peak, but even the Guanlong clan who was buried up to his neck with loess will revive and occupy the court again, and even reappear. The story of the power over the world in the early years of Zhenguan...

But he can't help it. Who told the Jiangnan gentry not to live up to it?Not only did the private army recruited and formed at a huge price fail to rush to Chang'an to support the King of Jin, but was completely maimed and dispersed by the navy's indiscriminate bombing in Yanziji.

In fact, since King Jin raised the banner and launched the mutiny, the gentry in the south of the Yangtze River have made very few contributions.

Coughing, Xiao Yu reminded: "Your Highness, since Li and Liu have rushed to Chang'an with all their strength, even if they can't capture the Xuanwu Gate and enter the Taiji Palace to besiege Fang Jun, they will certainly be able to restrain Li Jing and Xue Wanche from acting rashly, so we should urge The Duke of E has done his best in one battle, as long as he quickly captures the Hall of Virtuous Virtue, the war can be ended."

As long as Li and Liu lead the troops to arrive, Li Jing and Xue Wanche will definitely go to intercept them, so it will be impossible to enter Chang'an City to reinforce Wude Hall. As long as Yu Chigong can concentrate his forces to capture Wude Hall, everything will be over.

At the top of the sky, Li Chengqian withdrew from Chang'an City from the secret road, and then retreated to Hexi under the escort of Li Jing and Xue Wanche. However, Li Zhi had already occupied the power center of the empire, and he could take advantage of the situation to ascend the throne and announce it to the world.

As for whether the east and west are divided, and the north and south are divided, that is a later story...

Li Zhi looked at Li Daozong, who was silent at the side, restrained his excitement, and asked respectfully, "What does the king think?"

Now whether we can capture Wude Palace and win the mutiny can only rely on Li Daozong and Yu Chigong. As for the Shandong private army led by Cui Xin outside Chengtianmen and Li and Liu who have not yet arrived in Chang'an, we can only As a containment, it cannot be a decisive factor.

If Li Daozong and Yu Chigong refused to die and survive, they would definitely not be able to capture the Wude Palace...

Li Daozong got up, and said in a deep voice: "I will go to the Zhaode Palace with your highness to meet E Guogong with your highness. Together, we will concentrate our forces and break through Wudemen in one fell swoop!"

Whether it is a confrontation between the east and the west, or the separatism between the north and the south, this is what Li Daozong does not want to see. Since the day Emperor Taizong took the throne, he has devoted himself to governing the country without sleep and food. Now, because of the mutiny, it is very likely that all the hard work of Emperor Taizong will go to waste...

If Emperor Taizong was still alive, how would he choose between the inheritance of the throne and the stability of the country?
It's just that the matter has come to this point, and naturally there is no turning back, and there is only one way to go to the dark, no matter whether it is the dawn of victory or the abyss, there is no way to retreat...

*****
Inside the Hall of Wude, the atmosphere was extremely depressing. The news that the three armies of Li, Liu, and An were going to Chang'an was like a thunderbolt, which made everyone flustered and panicked. The situation they least wanted to see happened.

Since the time when King Jin raised his troops, Li Chengqian has been trying his best to quell the mutiny with a thunderous momentum, so as to prevent the entire Guanzhong garrison and clans from responding. Yin Qinzhou gave all the garrison troops and elites a sap stick, which made everyone frightened and did not dare to cross the threshold. Only then did they win the decisive battle in Taiji Palace.

However, now that Li, Liu, and An are leading the army, the situation has been completely broken, and there must be others following behind...

However, the situation has not yet reached the stage of complete corruption. The disadvantage is that the situation in the entire Guanzhong has been broken, and there must be other garrisons and clans to respond immediately after it. Among them, the most elite You Xiaowei blocked it, which was considered a blessing among misfortunes.

Li Chengqian knocked on the table in front of him, and the noisy discussion in the hall fell silent, and then he looked at Li Ji: "How do Yinggong think we should deal with it now?"

Li Ji looked solemn, and said slowly: "Although the army of Li Huaiqin and Liu Keman cannot be called brave, but the number is between [-] and [-], it should not be underestimated. The troops may not be able to stop them. If they capture the Xuanwu Gate and enter the Taiji Palace, and attack Li Daozong and Yu Chigong back and forth, the Duke of Yue will definitely be defeated. Therefore, the Duke of Wei should be ordered to lead the Six Commanders of the East Palace to defend outside the Xuanwu Gate. In addition, Xue Wanche was ordered to lead his Youwuwei to cruise around Kaiyuanmen, Jinguangmen, and Yanpingmen to prevent Li and Liu from breaking into Chang'an through these gates."

Zhang Liang sighed and said, "Duke Ying's response was correct, but in this way, Duke Yue can only face the siege of the rebels alone, and I don't know how long this Wude Palace can last."

The troops under Yu Chigong and Li Daozong's command were several times stronger than Fang Jun's right guard. Even though the right guard had the advantage of defense, they were struggling to resist. Originally, they hoped that Li Jing or Xue Wanche would be released after Cheng Yaojin went to Xianyang Bridge. Entering the city to reinforce the Taiji Palace, but now it seems that this is an extravagant hope. In a short time, we still have to rely on You Tunwei to resist the fierce offensive of the rebels.

Right now, it is raining non-stop, and the effectiveness of firearms is greatly reduced. How long can You Tunwei defend the Hall of Martial Virtue with flesh and blood?

Li Ji ignored Zhang Liang, but said to Li Chengqian: "The Duke of Yue has won the three armies bravely, and the Youtun Guard is invincible. Your Majesty should have confidence in it, and you must not shake the morale of the army."

There is no absolute thing in the world. There are countless examples of battles that have won more with less throughout the ages. All of them have a solid military spirit and firm confidence to create miracles. If you panic before you are defeated, how can you win by fighting?
He was most afraid that Li Chengqian would escape through the secret passage before the rebels broke in. As long as Li Chengqian left, the morale of the defenders would collapse and there would be no chance of victory.

There are always risks and opportunities in the world. How can it be smooth sailing without any twists and turns if you want to achieve great achievements in the world?This is true for Jin Wang, who is willing to take risks to rebel against him, and it is also true for Li Chengqian, who is on the frontline of victory or defeat. Whoever can survive the most difficult time can transform into a dragon and rule the world.

"The Mandate of Destiny" does not guarantee a person to win, only after the victory is "the Mandate of Heaven"...

Li Chengqian nodded in agreement after pondering for a while, and said: "Send an order to the Duke of Yue, ordering him to stick to the Wude Palace no matter what. Although I can't go to the battle to kill the enemy and fight side by side with him, I will always be here to shock him."

"Here!"

"Besides, you don't have to worry about it, even if the worst happens, you can leave the city through the secret path, and your lives will not be in danger."

"Your Majesty has learned from you, and the ministers are willing to accompany His Majesty through the twists and turns and wipe out the rebels!"

"I am willing to follow His Majesty to help the country, even if I am killed by swords and axes, I will have no regrets!"

All the ministers in the hall expressed their loyalty. In fact, they didn't care about their own safety. At the last moment, His Majesty will inevitably withdraw from the Wude Hall, so they can naturally accompany them. Compared with themselves, they are more worried about the palace in the city. The safety of the family members in the house.

It's just that the rebel army is raging Chang'an City now, and the specific situation is changing rapidly. There is nothing they can do here, and they can only silently pray for the blessing of the gods...

Li Chengqian said happily: "If the monarch and ministers are united, how can the rebel army be undefeated? Take it to wipe out the rebels, you and my monarch and ministers will work together to govern the country. We must inherit the national policy of the former emperor and continue the prosperity of Zhenguan for a long time. head, go further!"

"Your Majesty is ordered by the heavens, and he is the true son of heaven. He will definitely be able to judge rebellion and help the country!"

"I am willing to follow His Majesty to forge ahead and forge ahead!"

The atmosphere above the main hall is warm and morale is high.
