Changsun Chong and King Wu are plotting tonight's action.

It was getting darker a little.

The palace was still lit up as before, but unlike before, the soldiers had an extra shield in their hands, and some soldiers had an extra spear in their hands.

There are also soldiers carrying wooden boxes, as if they were in a wartime state.

Li Chengqian was in the palace, silently waiting for news from outside.

After a while, Cheng Chumo walked back, came to Li Chengqian's side and said, "His Royal Highness Prince Qiqi, I told General Hou to let them in, and General Hou said that he knew. ”

Li Chengqian nodded, looked at the dark sky, and said helplessly: "It's really come to this point today, hey!" ”

Cheng Chumo also said a little speechlessly: "I sent a spy to spread the news to the emperor, and I don't know how long it will take for the emperor to come back!" ”

Li Chengqian also said a little helplessly: "My father is in Goguryeo now, and there is definitely no way to come back quickly, but it's good to tell them about it, at least let them have a number in their hearts!" ”

Cheng Chumo nodded, but he still said very confidently: "We are now fully prepared, as long as they don't attack with an army of 100,000, then we will definitely win!" ”

Li Chengqian nodded, but he was still full of worry.

At midnight, the lights in Chang'an City were also extinguished.

King Wu waited for the soldiers and horses to quietly come to the west city gate.

Changsun Chong came to the door silently, looked at the defenders above and said, "I'm Changsun Chong, is General Hou here?" ”

The defenders seemed to know about Changsun Chong, nodded at him, and went down to report the situation to Hou Junji.

It didn't take long for Hou Junji to appear on the city tower, and he saw him look tired, looking at the eldest grandson and saying, "Is there anything wrong with me?" ”

Changsun Chong didn't know what Hou Junji meant by this, but he still smiled and said, "I want to enter the city, can General Hou be accommodating!" ”

Hou Junji nodded, and said to the defenders on the side: "Open the door, open the door for the eldest grandson and young master." ”

With Hou Junji's words, the gate of Xicheng also opened, and Changsun Chong returned to the team and led everyone to the city.

Hou Junji saw how many of these people there were.

When the defenders of the city saw so many people coming in with weapons, they came to Hou Junji's side with some puzzlement and said, "What are these people doing?" Why did you enter the city with a weapon? ”

Hou Junji glanced at him and said angrily: "Can you take care of this matter?" Watch your gates, tell your brothers not to leave their places, and don't go there to join in the fun, no matter what happens in the city, and if there is really anything else, I can't save you! ”

The defender also knew that Hou Junji couldn't control the matter, and he couldn't control it, so he shook his head and returned to his position.

These city defenders were all brought out by Hou Junji, and their loyalty to Hou Junji naturally goes without saying.

So many people walked into Chang'an City neatly and silently, and Hou Junji also silently counted the number of people on the city tower, and after a while, he sighed and said: "There are almost 50,000 people!" But not to mention the good and bad weapons in the hands of these people, why are they all wearing cloth clothes, and there are few pieces of armor! ”

The commander on the side came over again and said, "What are these people doing here?" To send them to death? They don't know how many people the emperor has left for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince! ”

Hou Junji's face also showed a smile, and he looked at the commander on the side and said, "They should be able to guess how many people the emperor has left for the prince, but they should think that their 50,000 people can beat the prince's men." ”

The commander pursed his lips and said indifferently: "As far as they are, they don't look very good, even if the prince only has more than 10,000 people now, it is still more than enough to beat them!" ”

Hou Junji shook his head and ignored him anymore, but before he could speak, Changsun Chong, who had just followed the large army into the city, hurried back.

Hou Junji was a little puzzled and said, "Young Master Eldest Sun, what are you going to do?" How did you get out? ”

Seeing Hou Junji asking himself, the eldest grandson hurriedly explained: "I suddenly found that there are some things outside that have not been solved, and I need to go outside to do things!" ”

Hou Junji nodded, looked at the defenders below and said, "Let go, let the eldest grandson and young master go out!" ”

The defenders below also obediently let Changsun rush out.

Seeing the figure of the eldest grandson chong gradually disappearing, the commander on the side was a little puzzled: "What did this eldest grandson young master do when he went out of the city?" Is it possible that the soldiers and horses have not come? ”

Hou Junji shook his head, looked at the direction that Changsun Chong left, and said, "How do I know what he thinks, but the direction he left should not come back!" ”

In the city, King Wu's face was a little ugly, just now Changsun Chong said to him that there was something outside and turned his head and left, in King Wu's opinion, this is Changsun Chong's unease about his action, thinking about retreating first.

King Wu's face was ugly, not because the eldest grandson rushed to escape, but because he was so busy that he suddenly left now, and he wouldn't betray himself and tell Li Chengqian everything.

Chang'an City was quiet, only the sound of everyone's footsteps, according to the instructions of King Wu, everyone walked gently, for fear of disturbing the people on both sides.

In King Wu's view, the best result is that at dawn tomorrow, the people suddenly find that Chang'an has changed, and Li Chengqian was successfully caught by himself, and then the ministers also woke up smoothly.

King Wu can put some of the blame on Li Chengqian, and he himself can naturally return to Chang'an and then take Li Chengqian's place.

As for where these soldiers under his command came from, King Wu naturally has his own explanation, and the surrounding people can't get used to Li Chengqian's actions? Follow your own soldiers? In any case, as long as he wins, then he must have a way to explain it.

However, just as they approached the palace, the soldiers who had been guarding outside came to the city wall at this moment and asked them condescendingly, "Who is here?" What to do at the palace? ”

King Wu naturally heard that he came out, looked at them and said: "I am King Wu, I came to the palace to find the prince for something, please open the door and let him go!" ”

The person guarding the door couldn't see King Wu's face clearly, but he still heard King Wu's voice, only to see him show a smile, and then said: "His Royal Highness King Wu, why did you come to the palace at this time, or come tomorrow morning!" Now it's time for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to rest! ”

King Wu naturally refused, and while whispering to the soldiers to prepare simple siege weapons, he said to the commander guarding the door: "My matter is more urgent, please be accommodating!" ”

Saying that, King Wu took off the purse from his waist and walked in the direction of the palace gate, weighing the purse in his hand as he walked.

The silver in the purse collided in the air, making a muffled sound, and the commander of the defending army naturally knew what King Wu meant.

King Wu did not hesitate to throw the purse directly, and the commander took the purse and looked at King Wu and said, "His Royal Highness King Wu, this thing is still difficult to do!" ”

King Wu thought that he felt less, looked at him and said, "I'll give you more tomorrow, I will bring so much on my body today, what do you think!" ”

This time, the commander didn't speak, but Li Chengqian's voice came from the city tower, "I don't think it's good, your little silver is not enough for everyone to drink a few good meals, why is His Royal Highness King Wu getting more and more picky!" ”

The moment he heard Li Chengqian's voice, King Wu only felt that the cold hair on his body exploded instantly, and he ran into his team without looking back, and then looked at Li Chengqian and said, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, it turns out that you are here, did Changsun Chong tell you about our actions?" ”

Li Chengqian was a little surprised when he heard this, "Why do you say that?" My relationship with Changsun Chong is worse than that with you, so why would he tell me that you are coming to attack me tonight? ”

I don't know if King Wu believes Li Chengqian's words, but King Wu still said: "It doesn't matter who told you, I just want to tell you now, let you go quickly, and stop your unfilial behavior, don't think about burying your male pet in the imperial tomb!" ”

Li Chengqian couldn't help but smile after hearing King Wu's words, looked in the direction of King Wu and said, "You are still pouring dirty water on my body, and now there are no outsiders on either side, why do you want to act in such a play?" ”

King Wu ignored Li Chengqian, but said to himself: "The brothers are ready to attack the city and capture Li Chengqian, the mediocre prince!" ”

Li Chengqian saw that King Wu seemed to be about to launch a general attack, and gave Cheng Chumo on the side a signal, and then went down to the city.

From beginning to end, although Li Chengqian appeared on the city tower, he did not appear in the field of vision of King Wu, although the wall of the palace is not as high as the wall of Chang'an City, but there are still a series of security measures.

With Li Chengqian's signal, Cheng Chumo lit the torches in his hand, and then lit one torch after another, and the dark position where King Wu was originally located was also illuminated by the lit brazier.

Cheng Chumo saw how many people were coming, and couldn't help but sigh: "Where did so many people come, fortunately, we made preparations in advance, otherwise something would really have happened!" ”

Seeing that the figures of the team were illuminated, King Wu no longer hid them, pointed to the city gate and said, "Rush, just enter the city!" ”

Cheng Chu silently saw the crowd rushing over, and shouted helplessly: "Everyone stop, as long as you surrender, we won't kill you!" ”

But Cheng Chumo's words had no effect, and the large army still rushed towards the city gate.

Cheng Chumo reluctantly ordered: "Release the arrow!" ”

With Cheng Chumo's words, one by one the wooden boxes were lifted, and the square holes on the wooden boxes were neatly aimed at the crowd below, and then four waves of arrows were shot out neatly, and the soldiers wearing cloth clothes below were pierced by the arrows like paper paste, basically each arrow could hurt three or four people, and the blood also stained the floor tiles outside the palace red in an instant.
