Chapter 808 Aftermath (II)

What an eyeless guy!

Looking at Sun Sanxing's anxious old face, Li Xian was really a little angry - the emergency military situation is of course to report to the general, but it also depends on the occasion, right? At this time, people's hearts have not been completely stabilized, and they have been messed up by Sun Sanxing, if Li Xian has not prepared in advance, wouldn't it be a mess at this time.

Li Xian actually didn't expect that when the weather was freezing cold, the army of King Yue would come so quickly, and it was naturally impossible to say that he was not nervous, you must know that the Tang Dynasty is now implementing the government military system, although hiding troops in the people seems to be able to save a lot of military expenditures, but it has caused a bad result, that is, when the country suddenly has an incident, it is difficult to mobilize enough troops, even if it is the eastern capital Luoyang, the 100,000 soldiers of the southern battalion who have just returned from the Turks have now dispersed, and there are only a few remaining officers and soldiers left in the barracks. Even if Li Xian issued an edict at this time, if he wanted to gather the army, it would take ten days to say the least, and it was obvious that he could not count on it.

If the army of King Yue comes quickly, Li Xian can only rely on the two Yulin armies of Cheng and Li and the army led by Donggong Wei, which add up to only less than 10,000 troops, and then count the standing army of Luoyang Mansion that can be temporarily transferred to 3,000, the total strength is only more than 12,000, deducting the key passes that have to be defended by the imperial city, the number of troops who can really go into battle to resist the enemy will not exceed 10,000, as for the Hexi army, it is still in a hurry, it is really hard to say when it will arrive, there is no doubt that the situation is obviously not so optimistic.

"You Aiqing don't have to be nervous, King Yue wants to do something wrong, I already know, and now Guan Long Tieqi has passed the Kunshan Pass, and is coming to Luoyang, and the thieves are rampant!"

No matter what the real situation is, the hearts of those who should be appeased must be pacified quickly, no matter how irritable his heart is, Li Xian will not bring it to his face, but smile slightly, wave his hand, and announce very arrogantly.

"Your Majesty, there is no place for a thief to die!"

"Your Majesty is wise, and the ministers are impressed!"

……

Most of the courtiers present were basically from the original neutral faction, and they finally stood on the right line, naturally they didn't want the dragon skill that had just arrived in their hands to come to naught, and no matter whether what Li Xian said was true or false, they all climbed up the pole, and the eulogies in their mouths sprayed wildly like a tide, and Li Xian really felt a little goosebumps when he heard it.

"All the princes are going to get busy!"

The military situation was like fire, Li Xianzi had no intention of talking to the courtiers, waved his hand, and then went to the soft chariot, led by Zhang Mingwu with two thousand guards to the Qinzheng Palace......

"The last general will wait to see Your Majesty!"

At the Qinzheng Palace, Li Duozuo, who had attacked several times in a row and failed to enter the palace, was furious at the generals, and suddenly saw Li Xian's soft chariot coming, and he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy in his heart, and he hurriedly led the generals to meet him, and saluted respectfully.

"Excuse me."

Li Xian slowly walked down the soft chariot, looked around at the anxious soldiers, and then looked at the three martial arts departments that were nervously guarding in the Qinzheng Palace, and felt quite impatient in his heart, but he did not say anything to blame Li Duozuo and others, but just shouted indifferently.

"The last general will wait for His Royal Highness Longen, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

Li Xian had already spoken, and the generals didn't dare to slack off, thanked them according to the rules of the court, and stood aside.

"Your Majesty, the thief is gathered in the palace, and the last general is incompetent and fails to destroy the thief, please punish Your Majesty."

Seeing Li Xian's cold face, Li Duozuo, who knew that the battle was unfavorable, couldn't help but feel a little deeper in his heart, and hurriedly excused himself for his guilt.

"It's okay, it's a crime of not war, General Li has worked hard."

Although he was dissatisfied with Li Duozuo's delay in taking down the three martial arts, Li Xian did not bring it to his face, but smiled slightly, and comforted Li Duozuo kindly.

"The last general will ask for another attack, and he will be a thief to return!"

Seeing that Li Xian brought the Donggong Guard and the army here, Li Duozuo was afraid of losing the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, so he peeked at Li Xian's face, gritted his teeth, and shouted for war.

"Well, General Li's loyalty and courage are commendable, and I am very relieved, but now things have changed, the king of Yue has rebelled, and his army is rushing to the east, and I still need General Li to lead his troops to stick to Luoyang for me, and I am afraid that it is not appropriate to be overworked, so let the Donggong guard rate cooperate with General Li's department to break the thief."

Li Xian is anxious to deploy combat matters, how can there be so much time for Li Duozuo to waste, not to mention anything else, if Li Duozuo's department can be attacked, then it will not be defeated repeatedly, at this time, I am afraid that it may not be much better, of course, this is not that Li Duozuo's department is incompetent, nor is it that the soldiers do not need to die, it is really limited by the terrain, in the case of not being able to set fire, if you want to break through the densely defended palace gate, the difficulty is indeed not small, and because of this, Li Xian did not say anything to blame Li Duozuo, but, Since he would not agree to his request to attack again, he groaned for a moment and made his will in a deliberative tone.

"No, the last will obey!"

Li Xiandu had already said this, and Li Duozuo didn't dare to insist anymore, so he could only bow his head unwillingly.

"Zhang Mingwu."

Seeing this, Li Duozuo didn't have any more objections, and Li Xian didn't want to talk any more nonsense, so he raised his voice and drank a sip.

"The last general!"

Zhang Mingwu wandered around with Li Xian for most of the day today, but he never managed to catch the battle, and he was already idle with itchy hands and feet.

"I ordered Er to send a team of soldiers to cooperate with General Li's department, and within a time limit of three moments, I will take the Qin Zhen Palace, there must be no mistake!"

Li Xian glanced at Zhang Mingwu, who was gearing up, his face was solemn, and he made his will in an unquestionable tone.

"No!"

As soon as he heard that his own army only sent a team of soldiers, Zhang Mingwu was quite unwilling, but he never dared to bargain at this time, bowed down, hurriedly agreed to the promise, and arranged for people not to mention.

"Your Majesty, please wait, the last general will arrange a strong attack."

In his opinion, a team of soldiers is only more than 100 people, not to mention that it is useless, and he also took the credit of his own department in vain, but Li Xian's will has been given, even if Li Duozuo is dissatisfied, he has no courage to raise objections, so he can only bow down and ask for his life, and then strode back to his own position, roaring and giving the order for the final blow.

"Don't panic, Niangniang has sent someone to transfer troops outside the city, and the soldiers of the southern battalion will arrive soon, as long as we can block the thieves, we are all heroes of the society, and Niangniang will not treat you badly!"

At this end, Li Xian was dispatching troops, and Wu Chengsi in the Qinzheng Palace was also desperately cheering for the remnants of his army, making a lot of promises with empty words.

"That's right, what Wu Shangshu said is that we are all greatly favored by our mothers, we should repay each other desperately, fight to the end, who dares to retreat from the battle, there will be no mercy!"

Like Wu Chengsi, Wu Sansi is also very aware of the fact that whether they surrender or not, falling into the hands of Li Xian is definitely a dead end, rather than dying in vain, it is better to resist to the end, in view of this, he fully cooperated with Wu Chengsi and sang with a white face, brandished a horizontal knife, and viciously issued threatening words.

"Bloody battle to the end, bloody battle to the end!"

Wu Yizong did not have the eloquence of the two clan brothers, but he was still quite enthusiastic in taking the lead in calling out the slogans, and the remnants of the officers and soldiers all saw Li Xian's arrival, and they didn't believe in the words of the three martial arts, and the echoing voice seemed a little weak.

"Woo, woo, woo......"

Without waiting for the mobilization farce of the three martial arts to come to an end, in a poignant horn sound, Zhang Mingwu had already personally led a team of East Palace guards to start pressing forward.

"Crossbowmen ready, shoot them!"

Although the Donggong Guard rate is small, but the combat effectiveness is extremely strong, this one, the officers and soldiers of Yulin are all clear, seeing Zhang Mingwu's troops walking slowly, Wu Yizong, who is in charge of commanding the battle, couldn't help but get nervous, and then hurriedly roared, this order, more than two hundred crossbowmen lined up on the steps immediately raised the bows and arrows in their hands, nervously aiming at the approaching Donggong Guard.

"Crossbow ready!"

Seeing that the crossbowmen of the Yulin Army were so nervous and vigilant, Zhang Mingwu pursed his lips disdainfully, snorted, and immediately saw more than 100 Donggong guards in the march untie the crossbow machine hanging on the right waist with a brush, and each aimed at the target.

"Shoot!"

With the gradual approach of the Donggong Guard, the distance between the two sides was quickly shortened to a distance of sixty paces, at this time, it was within the effective range of the chain crossbow in the hands of the Donggong guards, and the range of the bows and arrows in the hands of the Yulin officers and soldiers was only about fifty steps, this was obviously a great opportunity for the Donggong Guards to lead the army to break the enemy, Zhang Mingwu would not miss it, but under his roar, more than 100 Donggong guards pulled the trigger together, and more than 1,000 steel arrows roared out like locusts, cutting through the space at high speed. In an instant, there was a scream like a ghost crying wolf among the unprepared Yulin officers and soldiers.

"Shoot, charge!"

Under the rain of arrows, the crossbowmen of the Yulin Army who were originally lined up in the aisle outside the hall were basically shot to death on the spot, and the rest were also frightened by such a dense rain of arrows behind the fence, and they didn't even dare to raise their heads.

"The crossbowmen counterattack, the shield swordsmen step forward, ready to engage!"

As soon as he saw that the East Palace Guards had launched a charge, Wu Yi Zongke turned red in the eyes, and waved his horizontal sword frantically, driving his soldiers to prepare for the strong attack of the East Palace Guards.

"Fire!"

Just when Wu Yizong was panicking to transfer troops, the guards of the East Palace had already taken advantage of the chaos to rush to the distance of only ten steps from the steps, but when they heard Zhang Mingwu's roar, the gunshots instantly rang out like bursting beans, and in the smoke of gunpowder, bullets roared into the chaotic Yulin officers and soldiers, and swept dozens of people on board.

"Knife out, kill the thief!"

Without waiting for the Yulin army to come back to his senses, Zhang Mingwu had already roared and pulled out the horizontal knife on his waist, and rushed up the steps like a fly, rushing into the chaotic army like a god and demon, slashing wildly, killing several people in an instant, and so shocked that the officers and soldiers of Yulin were all avoided, and the already chaotic formation was a little more chaotic, and then the guards of the East Palace who came to the follow-up rushed to the stage, and immediately fell into a state of collapse, and they all turned their heads and fled to the hall regardless of it.

"Attack, kill!"

Li Duozuo, who personally led the army as the second echelon, saw that Zhang Mingwu's department had only one impact, and he had already opened the difficulty of the palace gate, and for a while he really had mixed feelings in his heart, not for anything else, just because he let Zhang Mingwu fight the vanguard The intention was to make Zhang Mingwu suffer some hardships, so as to show that his previous successive defeats were not the crime of war, but he never expected that the combat effectiveness of the army led by Donggong Wei was so strong, and he was shocked, but he did not forget the business, roared, and led his troops to rush into the door of the palace that had been wide open.

The combat effectiveness of the old soldiers of the Yulin Army is not good, the reason why they were able to break through the strong attack of Li Duozuo's department several times in succession earlier was only based on the geographical advantage, and now the geographical advantage has been lost, and the military heart has been chaotic, how can they stop the elite of Zhang and Li Erbu, but the battle has come to an end, and the three martial arts are all killed, and the remnants of the Yulin Army of more than 800 troops have fallen except for more than 300 who died on the spot, and the rest have all surrendered, so far, the entire imperial city has completely fallen into the control of Li Xian......
