Back to the prosperous Tang Dynasty to be the emperor

Chapter 806 Decisive Battle at Luoyang Palace (4)

"Kill through the enemy formation, kill, kill, kill!"

Li Duozuo was originally a fighting general known for his bravery. This attack was ruthless, like a demon god, unstoppable, with a knife in his hand, there must be a harvest, and he killed dozens of people in an instant. Here, there is no single enemy, and what makes Wu Yizong's troops even more frightening is that the five hundred personal guards that follow Li Duozuo are not ordinary people, they are all warriors of the Mohe clan, all of them are burly and brave Abnormally, just one conflict has already thrown Wu Sansi's troops into chaos.

"Block, block, reinforcements have arrived, the bandit army is doomed, kill!"

Seeing that the momentum that had been raised by one's own side was finally defeated by Li Duozuo's personal battle, Wu Yizong's eyes turned red immediately, and while fighting frantically, he screamed with all his strength, trying in vain to support Wu Yizong. Cheng Si's subordinates arrived, but the veteran soldiers under him were not prepared to fight tough battles. With many casualties, the morale of the army has completely collapsed. No matter how Wu Yizong shouted, they lost the courage to fight again. Disarmed and unarmored, he ran around, and the defeat was irreparable. Seeing this, Wu Yizong dared not persist any longer, and led the guards back into the Palace of Qinzheng in embarrassment. The superiority is struggling to support the endgame.

Just when Wu Yizong's troops were defeated and entered the Palace of Qinzheng, Wu Sansi had led his troops to the battlefield. When he found out that it was Li Duozuo who attacked Wu Yizong's troops, his heart sank to the bottom of the valley. Because Wu Sansi appeared here, the main purpose was to ask for help from Li Duozuo, but he did not expect that Li Duozuo was also a member of the "chaotic party". As a result, the hope of Empress Wu's comeback is already slim To the extreme!

Since Wu Sansi was ordered in danger, he was eager to dispatch troops to break the siege of Empress Wu, but the army he originally led was all on the Xuanwu Gate, and all of them had already fallen into the control of Cheng Wuting's subordinates. The courage to break through the pass city alone can only go to the south side of Lishui Xuan first, intending to mobilize Wu Chengsi's troops to escort Lishui Xuan, but he did not expect Cheng Wuting's troops to mobilize so quickly. Neither Wu Chengsi nor Wu Sansi had the courage to fight head-on, so they could only lead their troops to the Tongxunmen. They planned to round up the two troops of Li Duozuo and Wu Yizong before making a fuss. You can divide your troops to attack the East Palace, and come to surround Wei and save Zhao. The two can also take advantage of the chaos to counterattack Lishuixuan. If you don't see it, you can't reverse the unfavorable situation. But now, with Li Duozuo's "rebellion", such calculations have been completely broken. There is hope, of course, there is not a chance of hope, this hope is to defeat Li Duozuo's troops who are still in chaos, and then take advantage of the trend to enter the East Palace along the Tongxun Gate, take down Li Xian's family members, and take them as hostages!

"Your Majesty has a decree. Li Duozuo conspired against him, and the crime will not be forgiven. If you kill a thief, you will be rewarded with a hundred guan, kill!"

Although Wu Sansi's ability is only average, he is a person who has led soldiers after all, and he still knows some martial arts strategies, so he sees the only chance for his side to come back. Seeing that Li Duozuo's troops are in chaos, he himself Unwilling to let go of the great opportunity to defeat the enemy, with a roar, he unceremoniously put a big hat of treason on Li Duozuo's head, and bravely led the army to launch a violent attack.

"Boys, come with me and beat the thieves!"

Regarding Wu Sansi's slanderous words, Li Duozuo didn't even bother to defend, and didn't care about the remnants of Wu Yizong who had retreated into the Palace of Qinzheng. Two thousand troops from the Second Military Command came.

"The reinforcements are here, rush out, kill!"

Seeing the arrival of the Second Military Command, Wu Yizong, who was still in shock, regained his spirit immediately. He didn't want to defend, but instead had the idea of ​​attacking Li Duozuo. In an instant, the soldiers and horses of the three sides were strangled into a group, and the fierce battle had reached a fever pitch from the very beginning.

In terms of military strength, the combined forces of the three military forces are no longer under Li Duozuo's. In terms of the situation on the battlefield, they have the advantage of flanking. Logically speaking, the three military forces should be able to occupy an absolute advantage. The old soldier, if you fight against the wind, you can be brave enough to make do with it. When you encounter a tough battle, you don't even have the ability to use three axes. How can you win against the frontier army under Li Duozuo's command? When the incense was burning, the old soldiers were sore and lost their fighting spirit. Looking at the colleagues around them who fought less and less, they were discouraged. No matter how the three martial arts shouted and cheered, they refused to play generals any more. There are more and more people coming, and the Three Martial Arts Department has no power to recover.

"Enter the hall, retreat into the hall!"

Seeing that nothing could be done, the three warriors who had already retreated together shouted almost at the same time, desperately leading their troops to the steps of Qinzheng Hall, defending to the death.

"Stand back!"

There are nearly [-] steps in front of the Hall of Qinzheng, and the gate of the hall is not spacious. Li Duozuo's troops attacked several times, but failed to enter the hall. Seeing that the situation was not right, Li Duozuo had to order a suspension of the offensive and led his troops to surround the Palace of Qinzheng.

"General, the last general asks for orders to lead his troops to attack again!"

"General, you just give the order, the last general is willing to fight to the death!"

"General, the last general is willing to lead an assault, please allow me!"

Li Duozuo's generals were all terrified, seeing Li Duozuo's order to retreat, they all felt unwilling to do so, and they asked for a fight one after another.

"Send signal!"

Li Duozuo was also dissatisfied with not being able to wipe out the three military forces in time, but he didn't dare to miss Li Xian's important event because of this. But he was already the turtle in the urn, there was nothing more he could do, after a moment of contemplation, he ignored the generals' request for a fight, but let out a sullen expression.

"Wh... bang!"

Li Duozuo gave this order, and a personal guard who was waiting on the side agreed loudly, and then took out a signal flare from his arms, pulled the matchlock, and threw it into the air vigorously. After a loud noise, a ball of red The smoke exploded in mid-air... Huh... The overall situation is settled!

As soon as the red smoke exploded, Li Xian, who was far outside the Xuanwu Gate, immediately noticed it. Turning around, glanced at the courtiers who were still in shock and uncertainty, and said in a calm tone: "My lords, the big event has been decided, let's go into the palace with me."

"Wait a minute, Your Highness, what happened in the palace? Why is there such chaos?"

As the chief minister, the last thing Pei Xingjian wants to see is a bloody coup in the palace. When there was a loud noise in the palace earlier, he was already full of shock and anger, but Li Xian didn't turn around, so he couldn't move casually Ask, now that Li Xian has turned around, he should ask clearly, Pei Xingjian will not be ambiguous at all.

"It's not a big deal. It's just a few black sheep trying to defy the destiny. Now that the matter is over, Mr. Pei doesn't need to worry about it."

The previous killing sounds were already so loud, so the meaning behind them is obvious, as long as you are not a fool, you can guess it roughly, let alone someone who has experienced battles like Pei Xingjian, there is no doubt about it. The fundamental purpose of Pei Xingjian asking such a sentence at this time is not the chaos itself, but the obvious meaning of accountability. Li Xian can see this, even if he knows that Pei Xingjian has always been loyal to Datang , I couldn't help being a little displeased in my heart, but Pei Xingjian didn't get angry about it, but explained a sentence in a calm tone. Xuanwumen walked in.

"Ugh……"

He clearly knew that Li Xian was perfunctory, but Pei Xingjian didn't dare to ask any more, not because of anything else, but because the overall situation is now under Li Xian's complete control, so what can he say no matter how much he talks about? ?Not to mention that Li Xian has already changed his usual address from "Pei Xiang" to "Master Pei". , but he didn't dare to say anything anymore, shook his head slightly, raised his heels and walked towards the Xuanwu Gate. Seeing this, the courtiers behind him didn't dare to neglect, and hurriedly followed behind.

"Enter the palace!"

As soon as the courtiers set off, Donggong Hu Ben, who was standing quietly on the edge of the small square, led the general Zhang Mingwu like a big worm that suddenly woke up. Started to press forward, the speed was extremely fast, but in a short time, he had crossed the small square and rushed into the city gate, and then divided into two groups, quickly guarding the courtiers walking towards Lishuixuan in the center.

"The last general will wait to see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Cheng Wuting, who had already led his troops to surround Lishui Xuan, saw that Li Xian was about to lead his ministers over, so he dared not be negligent in the slightest, so he rushed over with a few confidant generals, respectfully A military salute.

"You generals have worked hard, how is the situation in the hall?"

Li Xian was very satisfied with the performance of Cheng Wuting's subordinates, but he didn't comment on it. He just raised his hands indifferently and asked in a peaceful voice.

"Returning to Your Highness, all the thieves in the surrounding area have been cleared out. There are actually only two hundred soldiers in the hall, and hundreds of eunuchs and court ladies. There are more than thirty remnants of Qixia Temple among them. I will ask for orders to attack by force. I implore Your Highness for permission! "

Cheng Wuting was obviously still brooding over the fact that he failed to win Empress Wu on the spot, and when he was reporting, he never forgot to ask for a fight.

"Don't worry, a few clowns can't make big waves. General Cheng can just lead his troops to protect Lishuixuan firmly."

Up to now, the overall situation is under control, Li Xian was happy to show his benevolent side, and didn't plan to launch a mad attack as soon as he came up, so he smiled and comforted Cheng Wuting, then turned around and turned towards Wang Fangming, who was in the crowd, waved.

"My minister kowtows to Your Highness."

Seeing that Li Xian made a move, Wang Fangming immediately blushed with excitement, rushed to the front, and saluted with great respect.

"Let's get back on your feet, Aiqing, let's go and let the people in Xuanzhong wait to come out and surrender. I can give you a lighter sentence."

Li Xianxu raised his hand, motioned for Wang Fangming to excuse himself, and said in a calm tone.

"promise!"

It is a great honor to be able to participate in the succession of the great position, not to mention being able to play a role in it. This is definitely a great thing to leave a name in history. Wang Fangming was still so excited that he couldn't help himself, and his answering voice trembled slightly because of it.
