Li Yu trusts Prince Chongming, who has known him for many years, so there will be betrayal and killing in the capital of Yan Kingdom tonight, and Xian Zhilang trusts Li Yu, but he is an imperial general who is known for his resourcefulness, and he did not forget to make his own arrangements while cooperating with Yan Guo according to Li Yu's request.

For the sake of insurance, he arranged a back road for the thousands of Tang Xuanjia heavy cavalry who infiltrated the capital city, and that back road was at the relatively inconspicuous East City Gate.

The military order passed through the fireworks and dead horses, from the restaurant to all parts of the capital city, the Tang cavalry fought bravely to kill the enemy, desperately towards the east gate to kill, and gradually to gather.

If the Tang cavalry was allowed to join forces and then rush out of the city gate into the wilderness, then the dead land would become a living place, and it would be very difficult to annihilate thousands of heavy cavalry.

With years of forbearance and disguise, the two brothers Chongming and Longqing only got such a good opportunity, how could they allow such a thing to happen, and at the beginning of the battle, the four city gates were closed.

The Yan people's methods are very ruthless, very desperate, the city gate is not closed as in the past, but directly sealed with ten thousand catties of stone and heavy iron gates, so that after the war to reopen the city gate, it is necessary to use a lot of civilian labor, so that even if the Tang army kills at the city gate, it is impossible to get out of the city at all.

The only variable is in the East City Gate, here is the way Xian Zhilang left for the Tang Army, naturally arrangements have been made here, several strong men in the army with more than 100 Tang Army athletes, have already controlled this place.

The heavy iron gate hung in mid-air, and the ten thousand catties of stone were only a few feet away from the tunnel rolling down, and the ground at the city gate was full of blood, and the corpses of the defenders of the Yan Kingdom were lying in a pool of blood.

It can be compared to how thrilling and bloody the previous battles were.

Tang Jun stood on the waist of the city wall, looking at the city at night from afar, listening to the shouts of battle in the distance. Listening to the sound of the building collapsing, a look of anxiety was written on his face.

At this time, the Yan army in the city was attracted by the powerful Tang cavalry, and even if someone noticed the movement at the East City Gate, there was no way to bring in a strong enough army.

But they can't last forever.

They just want to see their comrades as much as possible.

The sound of hooves grew.

The faces of the Tang soldiers showed a look of surprise.

Moments later, however, the surprise on their faces turned to anger and disappointment.

A lot of people in black priest uniforms. The cavalry came to the East Gate.

The man at the front, wearing a silver mask.

It was none other than Prince Longqing and his fallen ruler.

Black peach blossoms are in full bloom.

A strong man of the Tang Army, his fist was like thunder, and he slammed into the black peach blossom.

The black peach blossom petals trembled slightly.

Another strong man of the Tang army swept down from the city wall.

Several strong men of the Tang Army. It is very tacit to attack Longqing.

In their eyes, there are no Cunzài of those fallen rulers at all, only this man with a silver mask.

The breath of heaven and earth suddenly stirred.

The skin of the thick walls peeled off.

The old bricks began to tremble.

I don't know how long it has been.

I heard a loud bang.

Ten thousand pounds of stone fell.

The iron gate slammed into the ground.

......

......

"The East Gate is lost. ”

Some subordinates looked at the fireworks rising in the east to warn, and their faces were pale.

Xian Zhilang stopped, but the expression on his face was still calm.

He was silent for a moment and then said, "Since you can't go." Then I won't leave. ”

"Summons all battalion generals. The Feng Battalion is now facing the cathar cavalry of the Xiling Temple, telling them that if they don't want to miss such a fun thing, then they will all go to the archway and go to the palace after the matter is over. ”

"Tell them that the objectives of the war have changed. Now we only have two goals, the first thing is to completely annihilate the cavalry of the Xiling Temple. The second thing is to burn down the palace of Yan and kill Emperor Yan. ”

Sin Zhilang was silent for a moment. Then he said: "If these two goals can be achieved, then even if we die here so idiotically, we will have an explanation for the Tang Dynasty." ”

......

......

For the whole night, Chengjing City was trembling.

The iron gate falling from the east gate was also trembling, and from time to time there was a dull crashing sound, the sound of punching, kicking and slashing, and after a long time, there was no sound at all.

It's getting dark.

During the day, Chengjing finally became much quieter, only in some places there were occasional sounds of chasing and fighting, and the government began to organize people and soldiers to clean up the streets and alleys.

The iron gate at the east gate was finally pulled up at noon.

There were dead bodies everywhere in front of the iron gate, some Tang and some Yan, and several corpses were dressed in strange black priest uniforms, and as the iron gate rose, the blood that had not yet fully coagulated flowed out like a stream.

Looking at this tragic scene, the faces of Yan Guofu and the soldiers were extremely pale, especially when they saw those deep palm prints and knife marks on the iron gate, they were even more frightened, secretly wondering if these Tang soldiers were human beings, how could they still have such a terrible determination in such a desperate situation?

Yan and Tang have been hostile for many years, but they have never won on the battlefield, and have been on the side of being humiliated and bullied.

In the face of such a victory, it stands to reason that the whole country should be celebrating, but at this time, Chengjing City did not have such an atmosphere at all, and the victorious people could not be happy at all.

People were frightened and disgusted to clean up the broken corpses on the streets, sweeping the scattered internal organs with brooms, and I don't know how many Yan troops and grassland cavalry were trampled into pulp by the heavy cavalry of the Tang people.

There are sporadic battles in some streets and alleys, no Yan people dare to approach, only the Yan army and the grassland barbarians hold weapons, and search around in fear, in the corner of the street, a young Yan army found a Tang cavalry that has not completely died, waving a knife and cutting down, which seems to be particularly numb and mechanical.

That Tang Jun was already dead, and he didn't feel much pain after being slashed so many knives on his body at this time, and looked up at the young Yan Jun indifferently, his eyes full of sarcasm.

He spat at the Yan Jun. The chest and lungs had already pierced countless holes, and he was about to breathe, and his saliva was bloody, and he couldn't vomit far at all, so he fell on his chest and died.

The young Yan Jun was startled. Throw the knife away, crying and running away.

......

......

Northeast of Chengjing City.

Outside the old palace of the prince of Longqing.

Hundreds of Yan troops and steppe cavalry surrounded the water.

In front of the palace gate, there were many corpses of the Tang army, and most of the corpses of the Tang army were covered with feather arrows. Several Don troops had already stormed the stone steps. But it didn't go any further.

There were also a few Don soldiers standing in the street, standing in the midst of the encirclement.

They put Sin Chik Long in the middle.

Xian Zhilang's body was covered in blood, and there was no expression on his face.

A moment later, several more Tang soldiers fell to the ground.

Now only Xian Zhilang and the generals of the Guards Battalion are left.

The general looked at the approaching enemy and suddenly asked, "General." We died at this time. Is it considered to have fallen into the prestige of the Tang Dynasty?"

Xian Zhilang said: "All the faults are the fault of His Highness and me, and it has nothing to do with you. ”

The general said, "That's fine, and ask the general to give me a ride." ”

Xian Zhilang coughed with a smile and said, "Didn't you send me?"

The general Zhengse said: "According to the Tang Law Military Rule, I must die before the general. ”

Sin Sik Lang smiled. He drew his sword and said, "You know my swordsmanship is terrible, please forgive me." ”

The general said: "After the general comes to Tuyang City. We are so disrespectful, please forgive me. ”

Sin Zhilang nodded. Slash down with a sword.

Then he looked in the direction of the Yan Kingdom Palace, and the expression on his face looked a little regretful.

......

......

The main gate of the palace opened, and Prince Chongming walked out of the palace.

The army formation gradually divided, and Prince Longqing walked over from the periphery.

The two looked at Xian Zhilang, who was standing with his sword in his hand, obviously they had successfully calculated the Tang general, who was known for his resourcefulness, and finally won the victory, but they didn't have much joy.

Looking at the weak general, Long Qing even felt a little cold.

During last night's battle, he suffered an extremely severe knife wound to the shoulder.

The strength of the Tang cavalry was too terrifying, and in the end, the violent and unreasonable counterattack almost ruined his entire plan.

At the end of the battle, when the Tang army was gone, Xian Zhilang organized a beheading in a very short period of time, if there were not two martial arts powerhouses sent by Xiling Temple beside him at that time, and the two martial arts powerhouses were protected by their lives, he was only afraid that he had died in that assassination, and the battle situation would inevitably change.

Xian Zhilang looked at Prince Chongming and asked, "How does it feel to be a betrayer?"

Prince Chongming was still personable and said, "Everyone is qualified to say that I betrayed, but you Tang people don't." For countless years, my Yan Kingdom has been bullied, and when it came to Xiahou, my Yan Kingdom was even more miserable, I don't know how many innocent people died under the Tang Iron Horse, if I join forces with you, it will be the real betrayal. ”

Long Qing walked up to Prince Chongming, looked at Xian Zhilang and asked, "Tang Jun's bravery is indeed extraordinary, what I don't understand now is that you don't commit suicide yet, what do you want to wait for?"

"I just wanted to ask a few questions. ”

"What's the problem?"

"Same question as at the beginning, I don't understand why Prince Chongming would join forces with you to set up such a bureau, I believe that Her Royal Highness the princess in Chang'an City will not understand after learning the truth. ”

"You Tang people always like to flaunt the great harmony of the world, thinking that if you accept a foreigner as an official in the court and teach in the academy, you can really ignore the country, but in fact, it is just because you have been strong enough in the past few years, so you have such a mentality, you don't know what others are thinking in their hearts. ”

Prince Chongming said: "I have been a proton in Chang'an City for so many years, I have befriended Li Yu's sister, and even Tang Chen persuaded me to stay in Chang'an as an official, but have you ever thought about what the years in Chang'an City mean to me? Have you ever thought that I am a Yan person after all?"

Xian Zhilang was silent for a moment and said: "The reason why I believe in Her Royal Highness the princess's plan and am willing to trust you is because I know very well that it is impossible for you and Prince Longqing to coexist, whether it is for the throne of Yan Kingdom or for survival, you should want him to die." ”

Prince Chongming said: "All the qiē is just an illusion, our two brothers actually had a good relationship when they were young, and then the two maternal families confronted each other, but it has nothing to do with us, because we have known very well since we were children that what we want from each other, the secular throne I want, but his eyes are above the world, and the only thing our brothers want is to destroy your Tang Kingdom." ”

Xian Zhilang shook his head and said: "** is endless, and you may not be willing to abandon the prosperity in the red dust above the world, otherwise why would the Xiling Temple make a mess in the world? ”

Long Qing was silent until this time: "It is worthy of being a wise general of the Tang Dynasty who is known for his resourcefulness, even if he dies, he will not forget to leave a nail between the hearts of my two brothers." ”

Prince Chongming said: "Even if there is a day when the sword and soldiers meet, I will not regret the choice now, you Tang people have not been defeated for thousands of years, I don't know how crazy that sense of humiliation is, for hundreds of years, the humiliation you have given to our Yan people, and today it will become the power to destroy you, for this purpose, whether it is me or Longqing, we are willing to give all our qiē." ”

"Ruined Miè Datang?"

Xian Zhilang laughed, looked at the pair of Yan Guo brothers and said with emotion: "After all, you are still too overestimating yourself, the apologetic cavalry supporting you in the Xiling Temple are all dead, I believe that the strength you have accumulated for many years has also been invested in this battle, and in the end, you can only die with us." ”

Prince Chongming's face became a little gloomy, he knew that Xian Zhilang's judgment was not wrong, and in order to annihilate all the iron cavalry of the northeastern border army of the Tang Dynasty, Yan Guo paid an extremely heavy price.

After last night's battle, although it was impossible for the thousands of terrifying Tang Xuanjia heavy cavalry to reappear in the world, the casualties of the Yan army and the grassland cavalry were almost ten times that of the enemy.

What's even more shocking is that the more than 1,000 Xiling Temple Guardian Cavalry who were relied on by him and Long Qing as the winner were all annihilated by the Tang Cavalry, who had been exhausted from the battle for a long time, in the final decisive battle!

Can such a painful victory really be considered a victory?

"I know what you want to say, you want to say that there are still many troops in the Northeast Frontier Army who have not entered Chengjing, but I have to regret to tell you that I did not bring all the grassland cavalry into Chengjing either, and now those grassland cavalry are joining hands with the coalition forces of the Song and Chen Kingdoms to hunt down your troops. ”

"And you should also judge by now that there are definitely more than a thousand apologetic cavalry in the Xiling Temple, yes, the total number of apologetic cavalry has exceeded ten thousand five years ago. ”

"Now that I'm a Yan ** people, and I have such strong reinforcements, how can I not destroy Tang?"

Prince Longqing looked at Xian Zhilang and said: "For thousands of years, you Tang people have relied on strong soldiers and horses, bullying the weak everywhere, and enjoying the scenery, have you ever thought that there will be such a miserable day of defeat?"

"People will always die, and no matter how powerful an empire is, there will be a day when it will fall. I don't know when the history of the Tang Dynasty will end, but it definitely won't be now, and it is impossible for you Yan people to end it,"

Xian Zhilang said: "Everyone in the world calls the Tang Army an invincible army...... In fact, this is wrong, my Tang army will also suffer defeat, even if it fights with your Yan Kingdom, there are times when we lose, we are never as undefeated as the rumors say, but ...... We always get the last win. ”
