Chapter 180: Coming to Chang'an Again

Outside Chang'an City, a seemingly short figure leaped along the road like a ghost, stopping from time to time and waiting for a patrolling army in front of it to pass before continuing to move forward.

Just like the information he got from the scouts before, sure enough, after twenty miles away from Chang'an, Li Chengming found a large number of soldiers, all of whom were wearing armor, or holding spears, or crotch horizontal knives, looking like they were going to burst out and kill people at any time, which was extremely vicious.

It has only been about half a month since he came to this world, and Li Chengming still feels very uncomfortable with the soldiers in this world.

In the original world, Li Chengming did not fail to see soldiers, most of them were straight, and they looked righteous and awe-inspiring (here is praise), but in this world, they seemed to be full of faces, and they were like murderers who should be shot in later generations.

Of course, Li Chengming also knows that this is the characteristic of the times, in this era of cold weapons, if all people are not fierce to the enemy, they will die by themselves.

Fighting a war is not a game, killing people is not a treat to eat and drink, and it is normal to have such a temperament.

After avoiding several waves of soldiers patrolling around, Li Chengming even passed by a legion encamped ten miles away from Chang'an City, and judging by the banner they played, it looked like it should be the Gongwei division from Huazhou.

Li Chengming investigated a little and found that the Huazhou army alone had seven or eight cavalry members, and there were more than 10,000 ordinary foot soldiers, and their strength should not be underestimated.

If the Arch Guard Corps in the other two states is also similar to Huazhou, then the total number of men and horses in these three states is almost sixty or seventy thousand.

"Fortunately, I came in person this time, otherwise if I let Li Shimin take these people over, I'm afraid I would have to run away." Looking at the huge and longing military camp not far away, Li Chengming couldn't help but have some words of happiness in his heart.

Before, he also speculated that Li Shimin only had 1230,000 troops in his hands, but looking at this situation, I am afraid that there are 1450,000, which already accounts for a quarter of the total strength of the entire Tang Dynasty.

Although Li Chengming still has some hole cards for himself, but now his wings are not yet full, and he lacks too much luck.

"However, since I'm here, Li Er won't have a chance to steal chickens this time." Looking at Chang'an not far away, the corners of Li Chengming's mouth twitched, and a confident look flashed on his face.

Yes, this time he ventured to Chang'an not to play, nor to inquire about the news, but to find trouble with Li Shimin.

After learning that he, Li Shimin, had gathered hundreds of thousands of troops in his hands and was still deploying troops on a large scale, he felt that he could not let Li Shimin go on like this.

Originally, with his strength, now going to Chang'an to kill Li Shimin can be said to be nine out of ten, just one of them can penetrate into the palace, and then get a transformation technique or something to become Li Shimin's guard, and when he passes by, he directly sticks two detonation charms on him, and he can directly let Li Er go to the western sky.

It was easy to kill Li Shimin, but it didn't fit his plan.

If he kills Li Shimin now, then Li Yuan will come out and take the opportunity to regain power, not to mention the tens of thousands of troops who rushed over outside, it is the forbidden army in Chang'an, which is a trouble for him.

Moreover, if Li Shimin dies at that time, after Li Yuan takes power, he asks him to hand over the military power, will he hand it over?

Deliver, then everything he has worked hard for in the past ten days will be in vain.

If he doesn't pay it, as the emperor, how can Li Yuan let him hold such a large military power in his hands, especially after Li Shimin's mutiny?

Therefore, when the time comes, his situation will not only be very embarrassing, but it is not necessarily that he may directly turn against Li Yuan if he doesn't get it right.

He didn't care if he turned against Li Yuan, after all, among his goals, Li Shimin was not the only one, Li Yuan, the current saint, was also in his goal.

However, if he turns against Li Yuan, then all the prestige he has accumulated before will be wiped out, which will be very unfavorable for him to control the Tang Dynasty in the future.

Prestige is a thing, sometimes it seems useless, but sometimes Hou is very useful, if it weren't for this, Li Shimin would not have been propagating Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji's rebellion in Chang'an after the palace change, he was the one who put down the rebellion.

Orthodoxy, this is what the people of this world recognize, otherwise why would he be able to subdue Xue Wanche just by virtue of his identity as a county king before?

For Li Shimin and Li Yuan, Li Chengming actually had a plan in his heart, and it was precisely because of this plan that he would let Li Shimin go three times and twice.

However, in a month or two at most, his plan can be implemented smoothly, and at that time, whether it is Li Shimin or Li Yuan, the two of them will be an important part of his plan, and they will also be one of the help for him to reach the top of the entire Datang.

Although with his plan, he will not kill Li Shimin for the time being, it does not mean that he will not attack Li Shimin.

Since Li Shimin should not have moved his mind this time, he not only had to move Li Er this time and give him a little punishment, but also let him take care of himself and not be able to go on the expedition immediately.

Another point is that it just paves the way for his future plan.

Thinking about this, Li Chengming had already bypassed the military camp and came to a remote place outside the city wall of Chang'an.

As the scout said before, the gates of Chang'an City, which were supposed to be in the city, have all been closed after the arrival of the soldiers from the three states, and no one is allowed to enter or leave again.

For such a situation, if it is an ordinary person, I am afraid that you will have to put on a pair of wings to enter.

However, this is extremely simple for Li Chengming, he directly dived underground with the technique of earth escape and earth submarine, and after coming out, he had already entered Chang'an City, found a relatively remote corner of the market, and then jumped out of the ground.

After jumping out, Li Chengming groaned for a while, and then used the transformation technique to transform himself into the appearance of a young man he had seen in Huixian before, and then walked out of the corner.

Different from what he imagined before, Li Chengming originally thought that the gate of Chang'an was closed at this time, and the atmosphere inside would definitely be very tense, but looking at the streets with people coming and going, Li Chengming found that he was wrong......
