As for the Xuanwu Gate, Qin Qiong resisted the left and right Jin Wuwei, the prince of the East Palace and the six guards of the East Palace, and the East Palace Protector with the left and right guards, and the situation was also very critical. In particular, Feng Li, the commander of the six guards of the East Palace, and the brothers Xue Wanjun and Xue Wanche, the generals of the East Palace guards, were all diehards of the crown prince, and they personally led their respective armies to blindly attack.

The residence of King Guande and Zong Zhengqing Li Xiong. General Right Weiwei reported to Li Xiongyu: "Uncle Clan, wolf smoke has been lit in the palace, His Royal Highness the King of Qin has controlled the left and right Qianniu Wei, and the left Xiaowei Sanwei army, and launched a coup d'état, and now His Majesty the Tang Emperor, the Tang Prince, and the King of Qi are all surrounded in the palace. The left and right Jin Wuwei controlled by the crown prince and the king of Qi, the six guards of the East Palace, and the guards of the East Palace are attacking the Xuanwu Gate, Uncle Clan, you see, should my left and right Weiwei troops also immediately attack the Xuanwu Gate to rescue His Majesty the Tang Emperor, the crown prince, and the King of Qi? ”

After Li Xiong pondered, he said: "If my left and right Weiwei army attack Xuanwu Gate, then the King of Qin is doomed, and the crown prince and the King of Qi will be victorious. If the crown prince and the king of Qi are victorious, the Shandong wealthy families who support them will be reused. As far as I know, your father and several uncles were killed in battle when they followed Emperor Yang of the former Sui Dynasty in their third expedition to Goguryeo, and your two elder brothers and one younger brother were also killed in battle against Wang Shichong of Luoyang. Whether it is the failure of Emperor Yang of the former Sui Dynasty to conquer Goguryeo, or the rise of Wang Shichong of Luoyang, the mastermind behind this scene, don't you know that it is the wealthy family of Shandong? Are you willing to see the Shandong Hao clan who killed so many of your relatives reused? ”

General Weiwei said with an embarrassed face: "The family revenge has not been avenged, I definitely don't want the wealthy family in Shandong to be reused, but at this time, King Qin's coup, my left and right Weiwei army did not move, wait and see the situation deteriorate, and in the future, His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty will blame it, uncle, this crime, my Longyou Li royal family has to resist it." ”

Li Xiong was also embarrassed, and said: "I, the Li clan of Longyou and the left and right Weiwei armies under my control, like you, fathers, sons, and brothers have died at the hands of the wealthy clan in Shandong, and there are countless people. We are really unwilling to help the wealthy clan of Shandong, help the prince Jiancheng, Qi Wang Yuanji and them, wait, let's see, after their victory and defeat appear, we will not be too late to send troops. ”

General Right Weiwei said helplessly: "Uncle clan, now there is only one way to go." I'm going to make arrangements, so that the left and right guards are on standby, and they can't act rashly. ”

Looking at the back of General Right Weiwei leaving, Li Xiong looked up to the sky and sighed: "Shimin, I am optimistic about you, I hope you can win." Now that's all I can do for you, I hope you don't disappoint me, and you must succeed. ”

The mansion of Qin Wutong, the general of Zuo Wuwei. The heads of the Guanlong aristocratic families gathered together.

Qin Wutong said to the heads of the family: "His Royal Highness the King of Qin has controlled the left and right Qianniu Wei, and the left Xiaowei Sanwei army, and launched a coup d'état in the palace, and now His Majesty the Tang Emperor, the crown prince, and the king of Qi are all trapped in the palace, and my Guanlong nobleman, Lord Pei Lianpei, is also trapped in the palace. Today, I invite all the heads of the family to come here to discuss, what should I do with the nobles of Guanlong? Do you want to assist the army of the crown prince and the king of Qi, attack Xuanwumen, and suppress the coup d'état of Li Shimin, the king of Qin. ”

As soon as Qin Wu's voice fell, he heard a family head surnamed Zhang say: "Then what else is there to discuss, King Qin has done such a big rebellious thing, vainly trying to rebel, of course, everyone will be punished, and the left and right Wuwei army controlled by my Guanlong nobles should assist the prince and His Royal Highness the King of Qi as soon as possible, break through the Xuanwu Gate, and capture and kill the traitor Li Shimin." ”

"Yo, the head of the Zhang family is interested in the prince and the king of Qi. Captured and killed Li Shimin, the king of Qin, the crown prince and the king of Qi ascended the throne, they must reuse the Shandong Hao clan, do I Guanlong nobles still have to follow the Shandong Hao clan to eat dust and soil? ”

……

……

……

"We can ignore the crown prince Jiancheng and Qi Wang Yuanji, but we can't ignore the safety of His Majesty the Tang Emperor. So I propose to immediately attack the Xuanwu Gate, suppress the Qin King Li Shimin, and protect His Majesty the Tang Emperor. ”

"Attacking Xuanwu Gate now, it is equivalent to directly helping the crown prince and the king of Qi. got rid of the King of Qin, and in the future, the Tang Dynasty will definitely be the crown prince and the king of Qi. The crown prince and the king of Qi, will they not reuse the people of the Shandong Hao family? Shandong Hao clan is reused, will they not suppress our Guanlong nobles? ”

The heads of the family talked and quarreled endlessly.

Zhao Jingzhong, the head of the Zhao family in Longyou, Zhao Meng's father, and the general of Huaihua, dissuaded everyone: "It's better for us to let the left and right military guard armies under our control stand by first, and then make a decision after the situation is clear." ”

Everyone's eyes suddenly lit up, and at this time, no one on either side could convince anyone, and that was the only way.

At the head of the Xuanwu Gate, the city and the city were all shaking shouts and killings, and the blood of the Zuo Xiaowei army was steaming, the eyes were red, the shouts were hoarse, and one by one they roared fiercely and waved the swords in their hands and slashed violently. The corpses under the city were piled up into a hill, whether it was Xue Wanjun, Xue Wanche's brothers, or Feng Li and Xie Shufang, they all threw off their armor at this time, bare arms, and their heads were scattered, leading the soldiers to rush to kill, they knew that the prince and the king of Qi were dangerous, and only by capturing the Xuanwu Gate at all costs and rescuing the prince and the king of Qi could they suppress the coup d'état of the king of Qin, Li Shimin, and kill the rebellious king of Qin.

Qin Qiong was no longer in command in the arrow tower, but led his soldiers to run in various dangerous areas. His face was dirty and black, his beard and hair were scattered and tangled, his hands were wielding bloody swords, and he was shouting everywhere: "Kill, defend, must defend." Killing ......" His whole person was like a fierce beast that repeatedly showed its fangs, with a murderous spirit and a murderous intent, inspiring every Zuo Xiao guard in the city. Aside from his "red" cloak, which had long since turned purple-black, he was no different from every soldier.

Feng Li, Xue Wanjun, Xue Wanche, and Xie Shufang's attack was repulsed, and Jun Sima reported to Qin Qiongyu: "In the defensive battle just now, my left Xiaowei army from the third rank of Yunlu's general Jing Junhong, and the fourth rank Zhonglang killed Lu Shiheng, and nearly 2,000 soldiers were killed and wounded. ”

Qin Qiong looked at the soldiers of Zuo Xiaowei who died in battle at the head of Xuanwu Gate, and sighed: "Feng Li, Xue Wanjun, Xue Wanche, and Xie Shufang are attacking with their lives, and we must defend Xuanwu Gate to the death, this is a vicious battle." However, even if we all die in battle, we can't let them pass through the Xuanwu Gate and enter the palace, which will ruin the great affairs of His Royal Highness King Qin. I hope that they can be faster, King Qin, and kill the crown prince Jiancheng and King Yuanji of Qi as soon as possible. Only by killing the crown prince Jiancheng and Qi Wang Yuanji can the major event be considered a success. ”
