Chapter 225: The decisive battle against Xuanwu Gate

After sitting down, Chen Qianli was a little restrained, sometimes putting his hands in front of him, sometimes on his sides. A sense of regret for betraying others was like thousands of ants crawling in his heart, making him unable to raise his head in front of Chen Xuanli. However, Chen Qianli has a special friendship with Qin Jin, when he was in Xin'an, if Qin Jin hadn't protected him everywhere, maybe he would have been swept away by the county order, so at the critical moment, he would not hesitate to stand on Qin Jin's side.

"Chen Changshi thinks it's hot?"

Chen Xuanli didn't seem to remember that Chen Qianli had betrayed him just now, and instead asked him if he was unwell.

Wiping away the beads of sweat oozing from his forehead, Chen Qianli replied embarrassedly: "It's not hot to go down, dare to ask the general if there is something important?"

"Just before midnight, Gao Lishi personally came to meet the Longwu Army and asked me to send troops to make it difficult......"

Hearing Chen Xuanli say this, Chen Qianli's heart suddenly beat suddenly, Gao Lishi is loyal to the Son of Heaven, since he is not in Xingqing Palace, then it is very likely that he will make trouble outside, and it may be dangerous to Qin Jin, so he wants to inform Qin Jin immediately.

Chen Xuanli seemed to see through Chen Qianli's thoughts, and sighed again.

Chen Changshi doesn't need to worry, General Qin has already learned about this and is bothering to deal with it, but the problem he is facing is a little tricky. I heard that Gao Lishi has gathered a new army that should have been eliminated and has occupied the Taiji Palace......"

Chen Qianli's heart trembled even more violently, he couldn't imagine that Gao Lishi could pull out another team of people and horses in the Jedi, and even occupy the Taiji Palace, could it be that Qin Jin and the crown prince were in danger tonight?

"How did the general answer to Colliers?"

After the initial shock, Chen Qianli suddenly realized the most important thing now, that is, Chen Xuanli's attitude, whoever he falls to, who may have the upper hand. However, when Chen Qianli asked this sentence, he was also suspicious in his heart, with Chen Xuanli's temperament, although he was cautious and conservative, he was by no means a procrastinator, but he still had a lot of time to talk to himself, and it was likely that he had not yet made a decision, which was really strange.

As Chen Qianli expected, Chen Xuanli did not hide his attitude, but told the truth: "Father and son won the championship, Chen is really difficult to make a decision!"

As he spoke, a bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Of course, this is Chen Xuanli's heartfelt words, if this happened before the release of the proclamation, he would not hesitate to support the Son of Heaven. But yesterday he just issued a proclamation urging the Son of Heaven to take the throne, and today he has reversed himself, and he will not only have a reputation for being capricious, but may even be displeasing to both sides.

Moreover, as a long history, Chen Qianli has a good influence in the new army of the Longwu Army, and he is not completely sure who the new army will listen to.

At this moment, Chen Xuanli's inner entanglement is not at all Chen Qianli, he can't see through Qin Jin, he doesn't know what killer weapon this person has in his hands, if he chooses the wrong one, the reputation problem is secondary, and the safety of himself and his family will be unpredictable.

In Chen Qianli's view, the initiative of the current situation has been transferred to Chen Xuanli's hands, as long as he raises his arms and shouts, no matter who he supports, that person will inevitably persist until the final victory.

However, Chen Qianli also has his doubts, that is, since he conspired with Qin Jin to kidnap Chen Xuanli, he felt ashamed of Chen Xuanli, so he deliberately closed the door in a low-key manner, but it was precisely this mentality that made him take the initiative to give up his understanding of the outside world. He didn't know where Gao Lishi had gone and how Qin Jin had responded.

However, Chen Xuanli soon said another piece of news that shocked him even more.

"I just received the news that the Shenwu Army stormed the Nannei ......"

"The result?"

Before Chen Xuanli finished speaking, Chen Qianli couldn't wait to ask.

"The result is that Gao Xianggong won, and the captain named Lu Qi in the Shenwu Army went to Qin Jin to ask for guilt!"

Chen Qianli was shocked in his heart, what he was shocked was not that the situation had deteriorated to such a sinister situation, but that the attack on Xingqing Palace was a bit different from what Qin Jin had promised him before.

After Qin Jin kidnapped Chen Xuanli and forced him to express his position, he once told Chen Qianli about the original intention and last resort of this mutiny. He would never kill the Son of Heaven, and he was not even willing to use swords in Chang'an City. In Qin Jin's original words, if in order to seize power, the more killings are inside and outside Chang'an, the more tearing within the court will be, and even life or death, and it will be difficult to reconcile. After all, there are still a large number of rebels outside Tongguan, can Datang still withstand this kind of toss?

In Chen Qianli's impression, Qin Jin is by no means a soft-handed person, and it is not a problem to kill some people in order to achieve his goal, but he can be so active and honest that he will not make a big move, but hopes to control the impact of the mutiny to a certain extent, which makes Chen Qianli convinced that Qin Jin did this because of his bitterness, and it was also out of the public heart of the Tang Dynasty.

However, as Chen Xuanli said, if the Shenwu Army's strong attack on Nannei is true, it will be contrary to Qin Jin's promise. Moreover, Chen Qianli has no doubt about the truth of this matter, if Gao Lishi really gathered a large army and posed a threat to the Shenwu Army, storming Nannei is the most direct and effective way to deal with it.

……

"Kill! There are few Shenwu soldiers, kill them all!"

The shouts made Lu Qi's scalp tingle, and his increasingly heavy arms made him regret that he didn't know how to conserve his strength in the pursuit battle, and now even if he wanted to fight to the death, he was a little powerless.

However, as a famous family, how could he endure the shame of defeat? Therefore, in this battle, there is only a strong opponent and no defeat, either life or death!

With the same idea as Lu Qi, there were many people in this group of people in the Shenwu Army, although they were suddenly in danger due to negligence, no one thought of escaping, and after the formation was completed, they quietly waited for the moment when the decisive battle began.

At this time, Lu Qi found that the young man standing beside him was the young man who had a "common enmity" with him, only to see that his face was pale, his lips were pursed tightly, and his hands holding the Mo knife were a little blue and white because he was too hard.

"Are you afraid of death?"

As if he had been insulted, the young man immediately responded angrily: "The Shenwu Army is not afraid of death, is Captain Lu afraid?"

Lu Qi secretly admired that this young man and his brother were completely different types of people, and he remembered that on the day of the execution, his brother was so frightened that he was so frightened that he was urinating and crying for mercy, and he had long ceased to be human. It would be a lie to say that he was not afraid of death, but he was more afraid of dying in shame. So, there is no way back for him.

In his heart, he never doubted whether General Zhonglang's decision was right or wrong, and even he thought that if the crown prince was allowed to ascend the throne, it might be a good result for the court situation and the Tang Dynasty.

The current Son of Heaven, the older he gets, the more dim he becomes, just look at the people he reuses, and the ridiculous things he has done, if he doesn't toss the Tang Dynasty to his death, it won't be over.

Thousands of people against hundreds of people, a simple arithmetic, is to take ten as one, in the eyes of Colliers, not to mention that there is a full certainty, there is also a ninety percent chance of winning.

Gao Lishi has this account in his heart, and the Shenwu army has a total of only 3,000 people, not only to besiege Xingqing Palace, but also to control the gates of Taiji Palace, scatter it, and finally reach the Xuanwu Gate There are 500 is already the limit. This group of 100 Shenwu troops has gone deep alone, and it has become the end of the strong crossbow until now, as long as it can be defeated in the shortest possible time, the morale will be improved, and then the remnants will be collected, and he will still have hope of turning the tables.

Knowing that success or failure was in this move, in order to boost morale, Gao Lishi even personally carried a horizontal knife and stood with the soldiers in spite of his old age and illness.

"I will kill the enemy with everyone, and I hope that everyone will work together to annihilate these lone enemies!"

Colliers carried a knife into the army, and it really had an immediate effect, and the morale of the rebellious soldiers was boosted again.

"Kill, kill!"

The drums of war were beating, and thousands of chaotic soldiers rushed straight to the more than 100 Shenwu troops in front of them like a flood that broke the embankment, as if it was just a piece of meat, meat that was about to become the food in the belly.

However, the progress of the war took Colliers by surprise. Just when the two armies were in contact, a team of men and horses rushed out of the oblique spur, and the sound of killing shook the sky.

Lu Qi was already red-eyed, and whenever he rushed to the range of the Mo knife in front of him, he was all cut off by his stump and arm, and he was killed. But after all, he couldn't bear the crowd, his arms became more and more numb, and he was almost unconscious, presumably the situation of the others was not much better.

And the formation of a five-row horizontal line did not help them much, and the people behind the first row had no room to make up for it except for the fact that someone in the first row died in battle.

The corner of Lu Qi's eyes suddenly realized that the young man beside him was gone, and his heart was a pang, and his eyes swept away, and he saw that he was already on the ground, not knowing life and death.

At this moment, a shout seemed to inject infinite power into him.

"Look, Zhonglang is coming!"

Lu Qi turned his head to look, and saw a battle flag hunting in the wind, embroidered with a black Qin character on it, and below it were the soldiers of the Shenwu Army, directly hitting the flank of the rebels.

Qin Jin arrived only a quarter of an hour later than Lu Qi with two hundred people, and Gao Lishi actually organized a counterattack in Shenwumen, which was both expected and unexpected. It can be said that tonight's battle went so smoothly and unexpectedly.

Out of judgment about the elimination of the new army, he knew that these people were a rabble and could not fight well, but he never imagined that he would be defeated so badly by 30,000 against 2,000 that he did not even organize a decent resistance.

And now, this resistance within the Xuanwu Sect is bound to be a trapped beast and difficult to last.

"Capture Colliers alive!"

I don't know which one shouted, and the entire Shenwu Army present shouted in unison.

Although there were only 200 people, it made more than 1,000 rebels tremble.
