Chapter 240: The Mighty God Commands the Army

"The document drafted by the sage himself has been distributed, and the effect has far exceeded expectations! The hearts of the people in the city have also warmed up, and I believe that as soon as the Longxi Shence army arrives, the situation will be completely clear!"

Unexpectedly, Li Longji was not relieved by this, but sneered twice.

"People's hearts are warming, but you don't know that you are not a person who repeats left and right!"

After all, Li Longji is also a human being, and in a few days, he has experienced unprecedented ups and downs in his life, and has encountered the betrayal of his son and his courtiers, so it is not surprising that he has this state of mind.

Qin Jin was speechless for a while, of course he was also included in the ranks of these repeated disciples, but did he have a choice? Everyone was trapped in the whirlpool quagmire, and how many of them were in charge of themselves?

Li Longji glanced at Qin Jin, and personally took his hand and led him into the seat.

"I want to know, how does Qin Qing plan to deal with it before the Shence Army arrives in Chang'an?"

Qin Jin came to discuss this matter with Li Longji.

Taiji Palace is composed of three parts, East Palace, Yeting Palace, and Taiji Palace. These three palaces are self-contained and are collectively known as Taiji Palace.

Now the Taiji Palace, which is guarded by the Shenwu Army, has abandoned the East Palace, and only includes the Taiji Palace and the Yeting Palace. But Rao is like this, and the 3,000 men of the Shenwu army are not enough to defend it.

If the Longwu army attacked the city at multiple points and concentrated a few key troops, then the possibility of losing the Taiji Palace under the enemy on all sides would be very great.

"So, General Qin intends to shrink the defensive line?"

Li Longji immediately heard Qin Jin's intentions and asked bluntly. Qin Jin arched his hand and nodded, "The minister does have this intention...... However, for the sake of safety, please leave the palace and go west for the time being!"

Qin Jin knew that the Son of Heaven was the only bargaining chip that could turn the tide, and if the Son of Heaven was allowed to remain in the Taiji Palace, he might face danger at any time. The anti-ingression secretly transferred him outside the palace ban, so that he could calmly arrange a counterattack.

Moreover, at this time, in Qin Jin's planning, there was already a bold plan taking shape.

"It's all up to Qin Qing's arrangement! I'm old, my body can't help but toss, if there is a plan, it's better as soon as possible!"

Qin Jin didn't expect that Li Longji would easily agree, and this was the first time that the two of them had been alone for such a long time since he reverted to the Son of Heaven. But Qin Jin couldn't see half of his resentment in Li Longji's eyes.

Zheng Xianli has always said that Li Longji's character will never tolerate those who have turned their backs on him, so judging by Li Longji's current performance, he is showing himself that he has no grudge against the past.

"Qin Qing, there is a lot of killing in this Taiji Palace, I have always disliked the atmosphere here, and it is good to be able to move out one day earlier. However, since the Shenwu army did not have the certainty of victory to defend the palace, it was better to preserve its strength and withdraw from Chang'an in order to wait for the opportunity! Moreover, the old minister Geshu was still in Tongguan, holding heavy troops, and even if he controlled Chang'an, it would be difficult for him to turn over. ”

Qin Jin said: "Sage, until the moment of necessity, you must not use the defenders of Tongguan. Otherwise, it would be a disaster for the Tang Dynasty to let the rebels get a chance to rebel against Hu! The minister hoped that the saint would leave the Taiji Palace first, just in case. Although the Shenwu Army faced a huge gap in strength against the Longwu Army, and there was no guarantee that the palace city would be held, it was not impossible to fight. As long as the saint is not in the palace, the minister has no worries, and he can let it go. ”

After Li Longji listened to Qin Jin's words, he did not express his position, but pondered for a while, and then made up his mind and said:

"Since Qin Qing is so sure, he will let it go, and I will support it all!

Qin Jin's heart sank, knowing that Li Longji's mind had already guessed his plan, and while he was frightened, he also secretly regretted that if Li Longji was twenty years younger, how could the Tang Dynasty's country be so eroded?

"Chang'an is important and should not be discarded. Although the minister is not completely sure, he can't give up Chang'an easily! Moreover, the Shence army has been ordered to march east to the king of Qin, as long as the elite army arrives, the situation will inevitably fall to the sage!"

……

Li Mi was depressed and came to Changlefang Anguo Temple, but only saw that there were only two sergeants led by the East Palace Guard at the entrance of the temple, and they were so sleepy that they were crooked.

"Spirit, don't look at who's coming!"

The entourage who followed Li Mi scolded loudly, and the two sergeants immediately woke up, the person in front of him was the prince's most relied on cronies, although the official position was not obvious, but who didn't know that this person would be a prince sooner or later!

"Sir forgive me!"

Li Mi snorted coldly, unusually, he did not punish these lazy sergeants, but raised his legs and went to the temple. Although the sergeant of the sixth rate of the East Palace was lazy, he was very eye-catching, and he had already opened the door of Anguo Temple before Li Mi's order.

"I don't know if Mr. came here overnight, whether he wanted to offer incense or ask for ......"

Li Mi interrupted the sergeant's courteous questioning, and said coldly: "A certain person is here to interrogate Yang Guozhong, where are they being held now?"

"Yang Guozhong is locked up in the temple and the inner supervisor Cheng Yuanzhen, please wait a while, and escort Yang Guozhong over!"

"No need, lead the way in front of the head, just go in person!"

Li Mi came secretly, and he didn't want to be too public, so he planned to go there in person.

Who knew that he had just stepped into the temple gate, and more than a dozen sergeants of the sixth rate of the East Palace hurriedly rushed over, and shouted in panic:

"No, it's not good, it's gone, it's gone!"

happened to collide with Li Mi head-on, Li Mi frowned slightly, the sergeant of the sixth rate of the East Palace was discouraged to this virtue, if it wasn't for the fact that it was inconvenient for him to meddle in the affairs of the sixth rate of the East Palace, he really wanted to deal with it seriously.

"Panic, which one ran away?"

"Sir, it's Yang, Yang Guozhong, and the husband who is locked up with him......"

It was actually Yang Guozhong who ran away! And he escaped in Changle Fang, which was heavily guarded by the East Palace. Li Mi almost vomited out a mouthful of old blood, if he had known that he would let Yang Guozhong, a traitor, slip away, it would be better to slaughter it with a knife.

But he didn't believe that Yang Guozhong would escape without a trace in the walled temples and Changle Fang, and now he must be hiding somewhere.

"Search, don't you go to search? Yang Guozhong must not be able to run far!"

Soon, the entire Anguo Temple and Changle Fang were tossed and restless, but there was still no whereabouts of Yang Guozhong, Li Mi personally went to the Zen courtyard where Yang Guozhong was held to check, and finally found some clues, and finally found the dog hole next door, and couldn't help but hate and said: "Yang Guozhong is willing to drill even the dog hole!"

Running away from Yang Guozhong's waste is not the key, the key is the Son of Heaven in the Taiji Palace.

Now that the time has passed, the order to transfer troops has been issued for two hours, and the offensive against Taiji Palace is about to begin. He didn't have time to pay attention to the episode of Yang Guozhong's escape, so he only whipped the dozens of soldiers who were in charge of guarding Anguo Temple, and then left in a hurry.

When attacking Xingqing Palace, Li Mi used most of the main forces of the old army, mainly because he had deep doubts about these Chen Xuanli's old troops, but the first battle of Xingqing Palace had already cost a lot, and he could only use the new army of the Longwu Army. Compared with the old army, the new army was able to carry out orders and prohibitions obviously, and the morale was also stronger. I believe that as long as it is attacked with all its might, the Taiji Palace will be broken.

Li Mi looked up at the dark void, he needed to take the Taiji Palace as quickly as possible, otherwise it would not be enough to calm the hearts of the people in the city. In fact, the current situation is still extremely favorable to them, and even a fool can distinguish between superior and inferior from a simple comparison of forces.

The crown prince subdued the Longwu army, and in addition to some of the men and horses of the right leading guard, the total was as much as fifty or sixty thousand, and the Shenwu army only had three thousand people when it was full, and after subtracting the consumption of the past few days, even three thousand was not enough.

And Qin Jin or the Son of Heaven, with just one piece of writing, reversed the decline in one fell swoop, making the people in the city panic. Although Li Mi didn't want to admit it, he had to secretly praise that this piece of text was enough to be worth 10,000 elite troops.

At this moment, Li Mi already regretted that he should not be in a hurry to eradicate this hidden danger before the major event was decided. Otherwise, at this time today, the crown prince may have already ascended the throne and become emperor.

But this world has no regrets, and there are no assumptions. Li Mi abandoned all distracting thoughts, as long as he could take the Taiji Palace in one fell swoop, even if he couldn't catch the Son of Heaven, he could completely control Chang'an.

Out of Changle Fang, Li Mi rushed to the East Palace adjacent to Taiji Palace non-stop. On the way, he received a secret report from his cronies.

"Sir, a reply from the old man Geshu!"

Li Mi is not a short-sighted person, he knows that if the crown prince wants to ascend the throne and become the emperor smoothly, he will never be able to bypass one person, that is, Shangshu's left servant who is in Tongguan and controls the heavy army, so he must seek the support of this person in advance. Therefore, as early as the beginning of the prince's participation in the mutiny, he sent people to Tongguan to contact Ge Shuhan.

Tongguan is far from Chang'an, and it can be returned in one day, and Ge Shuhan waited until today to reply, which shows that he is waiting and waiting.

Li Mi's hand fluttered on the secret letter for a while, and then he opened it neatly. As he expected, the reply was very neat, as long as the Son of Heaven was willing to Zen, he would support the prince with all his heart.

Ge Shuhan's statement made Li Mi very excited, which invisibly gave the prince more help from hundreds of thousands of troops. And then, everything depends on what he does Li Mi.

"Sir, the centaurs are in place, when will they attack?"

"Siege now!"

Li Mi gave a categorical order without hesitation!

The belly of the fish in the east is white, and the onslaught on the Taiji Palace is also launched, the war drums are still rumbling, and the shouts of killing are still bursting. It's just that the target of the attack has been changed from Xingqing Palace to Taiji Palace.

The defensive resistance of the Shenwu Army was no better than that of the guards of Xingqing Palace, and just when Li Mi thought that he was sure of victory, a piece of news made him feel like he had been struck by lightning!

The 30,000 horses of the Zhaozhou Shence Army marched eastward, and at this time they had entered the territory of Chang'an Wannian County, less than 20 miles away from Chang'an City!
