Chapter 2491: Thirty-six Colonels of Tiangang
[Ding dong, Li Shimin's skill 'God's Blessing' is activated with effect 2, which can ignore any negative skills launched by the enemy. When I am personally present, I can halve the negative effects suffered by all my generals (the odd number is the smaller one);
The suppression effect of Li Maozhen's skill 'Bronze Spear' is invalid, and Li Shimin's force is restored to 112;]
[Order, the effect of 'Armor Ancestor' is invalid, Li Shimin's physical strength -2, and the current physical strength dropped to 110; ]
In the blink of an eye, Li Shimin and Li Maozhen had fought for fifteen rounds.
It was not that Li Shimin had not achieved high points during the battle, but the Naihe sword was not suitable for mounted combat and due to his own injuries, Li Maozhen was able to regain his position as soon as the situation got a little better.
"Damn it."
Li Shimin shouted anxiously. He was not afraid of death, but he didn't want to die just like that. He was really unwilling to ask Li Maozhen to support him.
As he spoke, Li Shimin used the Longquan Sword Technique to attack fiercely, and at the same time he launched the Crazy Dragon Roar, hoping that the sonic attack would affect Li Maozhen's condition, but this was obviously impossible.
The bad guys in Li Tang include the thirty-sixth captain of Tiangang, who is led by the bad commander Tian Kuixing Yuan Tiangang. There are two major Jianghu killer organizations under him, namely Tongwen Guan and Huanyinfang, and Li Maozhen's sister is the leader of Huanyinfang. , Tianying star Li Shuiyun.
In the past, Li Maozhen's sister had been using her brother's name to carry out activities, but now that Li Maozhen is back, she has also changed her real name.
What Huanyinfang is best at is the secret method of music, which can be said to be a trick of using sound wave attacks. Li Maozhen and his sister are both masters at this. Li Shimin using sonic attacks in front of him is nothing more than trying to do the same thing.
Sonic attack is an unsolvable technique. After all, sound is invisible, and the sound waves filled with internal energy, after being transmitted into the human ear, can directly damage the brain and cause death, and can cause dizziness and weakness at the least. , there is no other way except using power to resist.
The power of Li Shimin's Crazy Dragon Roar is obviously extraordinary. Even if he has not yet reached the level of mastery, he can shock people to death with a roar, and it can still give people a splitting headache at full strength.
But when facing Li Maozhen, it did not have any impact on him. Even Li Maozhen was immortal and used his power to resist the sound wave.
"how so?"
Li Shimin had a look of astonishment on his face, while Li Maozhen sneered: "Li Shimin, you want to hurt me with the Mad Dragon's Roar. It's simply a wishful thinking. Let me show you the power of the Phantom Sound Art."
"upbraid……"
Li Maozhen's voice was not loud, but it made Li Shimin feel deafening and enlightened. He also felt panicked and his heart beat faster. He quickly used his skills to resist, and suppressed the feeling of panic.
It can be seen from this that Li Maozhen's sonic power is much higher than that of Li Shimin. Li Shimin's use on him has no effect, but his use on Li Shimin must use his power to offset it.
If he kept using his power to resist the sound waves, it would consume too much power. Li Shimin obviously couldn't hold on for long, but he had no other means.
In the twenty-fourth round of the battle, Li Shimin's fighting status declined rapidly due to the rapid consumption of his skills and injuries. Even though his strength level was equal to that of Li Maozhen in the round, he was still suppressed and beaten by Li Maozhen.
In the thirty-third round of the battle, Li Maozhen knocked away the Long Yuan Sword with all his strength, and then hit Li Shimin in the abdomen with a sweep, shattering the armor and sending Li Shimin flying away.
Boom, puff...
Li Shimin fell heavily to the ground, and then vomited a large mouthful of blood, his eyes filled with unwillingness.
After years of hard training, Li Shimin has made rapid progress, and his skill is no less than that of Li Maozhen, but his combat experience is still far behind.
Li Maozhen let out a long breath, picked up the Long Yuan sword from the ground, and walked slowly towards Li Shimin with the sword in hand.
Li Maozhen didn't want to kill Li Shimin with his own hands, but Li Shimin didn't want to die in the hands of an unknown person and thought it was a humiliation, so he might as well send him on his way in person.
"Shimin, let's go all the way..."
Before Li Maozhen finished speaking, the door not far behind Li Shimin suddenly opened.
"What?"
Li Maozhen looked stunned when he saw this. After all, the entire palace belonged to him, and the Xuanwu Gate had already been controlled. Even if the people who came to rescue Li Shimin wanted to seize the gate, they would have to go through a fight.
Li Maozhen was so close and didn't hear any sound of fighting. It could be seen that it was not that the door was forcibly taken away, but that someone betrayed her.
"Li Changfu." Li Maozhen said to himself through gritted teeth.
Time goes back to an hour ago.
As soon as Li Shimin left, a battle broke out in Tang Gong's house.
Li Cunxiao led Hua Xiong and others to Tang Gong's Mansion, and collided with Li Yuanba who rushed back to rescue. Naturally, the two sides started fighting.
Li Cunxiao fought against the four masters Li Yuanba, Wei Hu, Gao Siji, and Li Chunfeng alone, and reduced the Tang Palace to ruins, but it was still difficult to distinguish between them.
At this moment, Li Shimin's "God's Blessing" broke out. Ji Fa, who was left behind by Li Shimin, suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart. Considering that he could not help if he stayed, he went to the palace to protect his lord.
It didn't matter if Ji Fa didn't come this time, but something went wrong when he came.
The gate of Xuanwu Gate was closed tightly. No matter what he said, guard Li Changfu refused to open the door. There were even sounds of fighting in the imperial city. It was obvious that both Li Maozhen and Li Changfu had rebelled.
Faced with such a situation, Ji Fa naturally did not dare to be forceful. After all, there were few people and there were no siege equipment. It was impossible to take back the Xuanwu Gate by force. Therefore, he could only act with emotion and reason, hoping to persuade Li Chang. Fu turned back.
Li Changfu was Li Maozhen's lieutenant and a son of the Li family. He was not a willing rebel, but since he decided to rebel against Li Maozhen, he naturally would not change his mind just because of Ji Fa's few words.
Ji Fa tried hard to persuade Li Changfu for more than half an hour, but Li Changfu was completely indifferent, so Ji Fa also changed his strategy, starting with Li Shimin's kindness, and also let Li Changfu remember Li Shimin's kindness.
Seeing that Li Changfu was red-faced and ashamed after being told by him, Ji Fa struck a chord while the iron was hot: "Tang Gong has been sorry to all the people in the world, but he has not been sorry to you and other Li family members alone. Everyone in the world can turn his back on you, but only you and so on Blood relatives cannot be abandoned..."
After Ji Fa's persuasion, Li Changfu was finally convinced and decided to open the city gate and release Li Shimin.
That is to say, the person who came to the rescue this time was Ji Fa, who was both wise and brave, and had good eloquence. If anyone else came, it would be absolutely impossible to convince Li Changfu.
Seeing that Li Changfu had been persuaded by him, Ji Fa was naturally overjoyed. As soon as the city gate opened, he led people to rush in. After all, every second late would put his lord in danger.
Among the crowd, there was a person who was extremely fast. He was obviously walking, but he was much faster than a war horse.
This person got ahead of Li Maozhen, rushed to Li Shimin, carried Li Shimin on his back and ran towards the city gate. It was Duan Chengtian, one of the thirty-six captains of the bad guy Tiangang, who was known for his speed.
Seeing this, Li Maozhen naturally wouldn't let Li Shimin go, but he couldn't outrun Duan Chengtian, so he had to recruit his mount and ordered all the soldiers to charge together, but Li Changfu led his troops and blocked him at the city gate.
"Li Changfu, do you know what you are doing? Didn't we already agree?" Li Maozhen said angrily.
"Yes, but I regret it. Ji Fa is right, everyone in the world can abandon Duke Tang, but only blood relatives like us cannot." Li Changfu said solemnly.
Hearing this, Li Maozhen laughed angrily and said, "Okay, in that case, don't blame me."
"kill……"
The two roared at the same time, and then started a battle, and the people from both sides also started fighting at the gate of the city.
On the other side, Ji Fa saw Li Shimin being rescued by Duan Tiancheng, and hurriedly went to greet him and said: "Ji Fa's rescue is late, please forgive me, my lord."
"It's not too late. If you hadn't rescued me in time, I would have died at the hands of that thief Li Maozhen."
Li Shimin endured his injuries and while practicing his martial arts to heal his injuries, he said to Ji Fa: "Ji Fa, please quickly bring people to support Li Changfu, and you must guard the city gate."
"But my lord, although Li Changfu is being ridden by his subordinates, there are only a few hundred people. We have few people and Li Maozhen has many soldiers. I'm afraid we won't be able to hold on for long." Ji Fa said with a troubled face.
"After I leave Xuanwu Gate, I will immediately mobilize troops to support you. You and Li Changfu must guard the city gate. Once it is recaptured by Li Maozhen, it will never be possible to recapture it."
"This...No."
Ji Fa had roughly guessed Li Shimin's intention.
As long as the Xuanwu Gate can be blocked, Li Maozhen's thousands of soldiers and horses will not be able to get out. Without the intervention of this rebel army, the pressure on the Tang army in the city will be much less.
In addition, as long as the city gate is guarded, it is possible to recapture the imperial city.
Chang'an City may not be saved now, but the imperial city still has enough food and grass for an army of 200,000 for a year, as well as a huge amount of wealth seized from the massacre of the famous families in the city.
Putting food and grass aside for now, this wealth alone represents 80% of the accumulated wealth of the Kansai family. If it fell into the hands of Great Qin, the Qin army would not even have to spend the military expenses to unify the Central Plains.
Li Shimin has been worrying about money and food for these years. Now he has finally used so much money and food, but he has been snatched away by others before he can even cover himself. How can he accept this?
Therefore, even if he wants to withdraw from Chang'an, Li Shimin must destroy this batch of money and food before leaving, otherwise he will endanger the enemy.
Even if precious metals such as gold and silver cannot be burned, items such as antique calligraphy and paintings that can be burned account for a large proportion of this wealth.
Ji Fa intended to support Li Changfu, but Li Changfu failed to live up to his expectations. The strength gap between him and Li Maozhen, who had just entered the super class, was too big, and he was killed by Li Maozhen in less than two rounds.
As soon as Li Changfu died, his subordinates naturally lost their will to fight. In addition, their immediate boss was Li Maozhen, so they all defected to Li Maozhen's side.
Seeing this, Ji Fa was very helpless and could only lead his troops to guard the city gate to prevent Li Maozhen from retaking the city gate.
Ji Fa had only 200 men under his command, but the city gate was narrow, which was not conducive to the deployment of troops. Coupled with the strength of Ji Fa's peak general, he could easily hold the city gate and was not recaptured by Li Maozhen.
Li Shimin, who was carried out of Xuanwu Gate by Duan Chengtian, was preparing to go to Ximen to command the overall situation, because now only Ximen in Chang'an is still under the control of the Tang army.
On the way to the west gate, Li Shimin received bad news, that is, Gao Xingzhou of the south gate was defeated by Li Jue, and the south gate fell completely into the hands of the rebels.
The South Gate was the only one without reinforcements. Even though Gao Xingzhou was a peak general, he was alone and unable to defend the South Gate against Li Jue's fierce attack.
After Gao Xingzhou's defeat, he led hundreds of defeated troops back into the city.
Although Li Jue defeated Gao Xingzhou, the price he paid was not small, so he chose to rest on the spot. After regaining some combat power, he would definitely go to support Li Cunxiao. By then, the pressure on Li Yuanba would be even greater. .
As soon as he thought of this, Li Shimin suddenly had a headache. He needed reinforcements everywhere, but he had no troops to send.
In desperation, Li Shimin could only order Gao Xingzhou's remaining troops to go to Xuanwu Gate to support Ji Fa.
But when Gao Xingzhou arrived, Ji Fa had already been defeated and was being hunted by Da Qin's people.
The Six Sword Slaves lurking in the city took action and jointly blocked Ji Fa, the peak god general, while Li Maozhen led five of the Nine Heavens Saints of Huanyinfang and took the opportunity to kill all Ji Fa's subordinates.
Seeing that the situation was over, Ji Fa had no choice but to withdraw from Xuanwu Gate and prepare to fight Li Shimin. However, the Six Sword Slaves were so tight that he had no chance to escape. If Gao Xingzhou hadn't arrived in time, he would have stopped. Li Changfu's footsteps.
Zhao She, who went to support the east gate, worked with the east gate guard Yin Kaishan to stabilize the situation at the east gate and killed the rebel generals Li Min and Li Jing and his son. However, an iron cavalry appeared outside the city, and the leader The person is none other than Yuwen Chengdu.
After Li Cunxiao received Ban Chao's summons, he immediately informed Wang Jian that the plan had been advanced.
Wang Jian's troops had just experienced a big battle a few days ago, and had lost one-third of their troops. Most of the remaining soldiers were injured and were unable to fight anymore.
But since the plan had been advanced, it was not appropriate for him to just watch, so he asked Yuwen Chengdu to lead four thousand cavalry who could still fight to come to support.
