There was a rapid sound of horse hoofbeats, and several soldiers in armor ran to the prince, got off their horses, and reported the scene in the prince's house with their hands in hand.
Li Yuanji stood behind his brother and listened coldly, feeling extremely angry.
He looked at the prince and shouted in a low voice: "Brother, this King of Qin obviously has a premeditated plan to kill you and my brother. We can't let them go."
Prince Li Jiancheng obviously did not expect that King Qin would send people to surround his prince's mansion.
As an older brother, he is very aware of how harsh his younger brother is.
Especially the scene in the palace today, it was obvious that King Qin bribed the eunuchs and the imperial army in the palace, hoping to put himself to death quickly.
For this reason, he did not hesitate to coax his father onto the boat to swim on the lake.
Who would go to the lake on this hot day?
The prince frowned and listened to his men's report, then waved for them to go down.
He turned to Li Yuanji and said: "The current situation is that if King Qin gets the upper hand, we are afraid that it will be difficult for us to come back. The only option is to rush out of the imperial city, then lead troops to surround the palace and kill them."
Li Yuanji looked at him and nodded.
He said quietly: "Brother, don't worry, our people will be here soon. We will rush out as soon as they arrive."
The prince said, "Soon." After speaking, he turned and glanced outside Xuanwu Gate.
The guards and Li Yuanji followed the direction the prince was looking, staring outside the Xuanwu Gate without saying a word.
There are not many people outside the palace on weekdays, not to mention that King Qin has blocked the road today. The people in the imperial city are even more afraid and hiding in their homes, listening to what's going on outside with their ears pricked up.
For a time, the streets and alleys of the imperial city and the government offices were all silent.
It was so quiet and desolate that it made people feel that although the sun was shining brightly, it was as terrifying as the long night, and the entire imperial city had turned into a dead city.
At this moment, the sound of horse hooves trampling through the long street suddenly came from the wind.
King Qin, who was guarding not far from the archway, suddenly turned his head and looked in the other direction of Xuanwu Gate, his eyes narrowed.
After a while, he looked at the group of soldiers behind him and said quietly: "They are coming."
Changsun Wuji looked at him with an unusually solemn expression and nodded.
A beam of beacon smoke burned from the other side of Xuanwu Gate, and in an instant hundreds of war horses appeared to break through the smoke and dust on the long street.
The sound of hooves was like thunder, rumbling towards the Xuanwu Gate!
King Qin and Changsun Wuji guessed that the guards from the Crown Prince's residence would come to Xuanwu Gate to meet His Royal Highness.
But he didn't expect that these guys would be so upright and attack Xuanwumen with such overwhelming momentum.
A group of soldiers around King Qin took a breath of air, wondering how many people the prince had secretly trained? He actually rushed towards the palace majestically, creating such a terrifying momentum!
Just in the blink of an eye, the front of Xuanwu Gate was filled with smoke.
Outside the Xuanwu Gate, the fallen leaves on the ground were whipped up by a sudden horse's hooves into a whirlwind, and flew away in all directions in an instant, and a sonorous sound rang out.
That was the sound of armor rubbing together.
Hundreds of armors reflected the light cast by the sun, instantly filling the Xuanwu Gate with a thick murderous aura.
The iron cavalry from the Prince's Mansion galloped toward the Xuanwu Gate like a whirlwind.
The horses' hooves trampled through the long street, heading towards those who pricked their ears in the imperial city. The guards on the war horses just wanted to complete their mission and rescue the Prince's Palace from the hands of King Qin.
Under the scorching sun, a yellow military flag danced slowly in the wind. A large Chinese character Qin was painted on the military flag.
In the Tang Empire, both officials and merchants knew that the word Qin represented King Qin of the Tang Dynasty. The military flag placed there was an indestructible force.
Even though the oncoming iron cavalry from the Prince's Mansion was still carrying an iron-blooded aura, it was slashing at the opponent.
Yuchi Jingde, a fierce general under the King of Qin, stood under the military flag and looked coldly at the hundreds of cavalry rushing towards the long street.
Watching these armored guards rushing toward the Xuanwu Gate with an unrivaled momentum.
Looking at all this coldly, Yuchi Jingde showed a touch of complicated emotions on his face.
Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, he had been very familiar with this Xuanwu Gate and knew that if he did not leave these cavalry behind today.
Otherwise tomorrow, today or tonight the prince will lead the army outside the city into the imperial city.
As a fierce general under King Qin, he must stand in King Qin's position. Not to mention His Royal Highness, even the emperor has to be wary of King Qin.
All because King Qin has a group of brothers who are not afraid of death.
However, today, the Xuanwu Gate of this famous imperial city will be a river of blood, because the cavalry coming to the savior of the Prince's Mansion will not retreat.
As the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty, His Highness will not retreat.
And King Qin and his group of brothers will not be an exception. They will have a life-or-death battle today.
However, the situation at this time did not allow him to think too much. They had to resolve the battle before the emperor got the news, otherwise everything would be in vain.
This time King Qin dispatched all the forces of the Qin family army in the imperial city. Except for the armies in Luoyang and other cities, they must suppress the guards at the prince's mansion!
For Yuchi Jingde, if they were to fight one-on-one, these guys in front of them would be just like scum, and they would be nothing.
But today the King of Qin is in front of him, and he and a group of brothers must win today's battle no matter what.
The prince and his gang had no way out.
The soldiers in Prince Qin's palace also had no way out.
Both sides have to step on the opponent's body and walk up. This is the battlefield of Luoyang back then!
The sound of horse hoofbeats sounded like thunder in front of the Xuanwu Gate. The soldiers of the Qin Mansion took out their weapons. Each of the silent soldiers stared ahead without speaking.
They were all waiting for King Qin to issue the final order to attack.
The cavalry brigade at the Prince's Mansion did not slow down and continued to rush towards Xuanwu Gate.
The guard leader on horseback stared in front of him indifferently. He knew that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would be with them today, and no one would sit still and wait for death.
In this long and quiet street, there will definitely be enemy sniping and a fight.
But they didn't care, they knew that His Royal Highness was waiting to join them not far ahead.
They will use the most powerful momentum to crush whoever dares to stop them in front of them without mercy!
The cavalry brigade in the Prince's Mansion is very fast, and they are ready to use their lives to fight the enemy to the death.
The large group of cavalrymen saw that they had already rushed no more than 200 feet away from the Xuanwu Gate. The group of cavalrymen still did not encounter any snipers.
Until they could faintly see the palace flying, the long street was still quiet.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and his younger brother Li Yuanji had also seen their men, charging straight towards them on horseback.
"Whoosh!" A sound of arrows sounded.
The horses rushing at the front made a powerful sound with their iron hooves trampling on the long street. As they galloped forward, they neighed in pain in an instant!
After the sound of arrows, several more iron arrows pierced the long street. The neighing sound stopped, and several war horses fell to the ground at the same time.
The heavy body of the war horse fell heavily and hit the bluestone floor, sending up dust all over the sky and making even the palace gate buzz.
The horse hit the ground with its owner, and blood burst out, staining the long street red.
No matter how fierce the cavalry in the prince's mansion was, they were caught off guard by the sudden sound of arrows. The cavalry at the front fell to the ground.
Before they could recover from the pain of broken arms and legs, several more black iron arrows flew from outside the Xuanwu Gate and pierced into their bodies mercilessly.
First the war horse fell to the ground, and then the guard in armor was shot to death by iron arrows in the wind.
Suddenly there was a roar in the dead silent street.
Countless soldiers appeared at the other end of the long street, and the military flags in the wind showed them that they were the soldiers of King Qin.
Even a team of iron-blooded soldiers who were more ruthless and ruthless than them.
Facing each other on the long street, they are like enemies meeting each other with jealousy.
As countless muffled groans sounded in the wind, the cavalry brigade of the Prince's Mansion suffered a ruthless blow at this moment. At least a dozen cavalrymen fell off their horses and hit the bluestone after the iron arrows flew out.
Suddenly, people on the long road fell on their backs, and there were bursts of miserable shouts.
Injured by the iron arrows shot by King Qin's soldiers, countless guards broke their bones and muscles at this moment, and were smashed together with the horses.
Rolling on the long street, blood flowed into a river in just an instant.
"Fire the arrow!"
The prince, the guards around him, and the cavalry on horseback, who were in front of the palace gate, gave the order to attack.
He couldn't just watch his men being shot and killed by the enemy, and all the guards of the Prince's Mansion were carrying bows and arrows.
For a moment, a whooshing sound pierced the air.
The iron arrows piercing the long street came and went, flying towards each other one after another, which was frightening. Countless black iron arrows flew out from the street and shot at the soldiers on both sides.
In just an instant, dozens of corpses appeared in front of the Xuanwu Gate. The iron arrows embedded in these corpses were all made by the Tang Dynasty military headquarters. Today, they were shot into the chests of the Tang soldiers.
The injured war horse lay limply on the ground next to the body of his master, neighing in pain while waiting for the moment of death to come.
After this blockage, the large group of cavalry from the Prince's Mansion were forced to halt their charge.
The formations of several people and horses were interrupted, and some horses could not stop roaring.
At this moment, because of a loud roar from His Royal Highness not far away, a clear order was given immediately, stabilizing the formation that was about to be disrupted.
Immediately afterwards, the large group of cavalry rushed up to the guards holding iron shields for decades, stepped over the fallen horses and the corpses of their companions, and built a barrier in front of the large group of people.
Suddenly, there was a sound of shouting and killing in front of the palace gate, but it was the soldiers from Prince Qin's palace who rushed towards Prince Li Jiancheng and his party.
"Crack!" There was a sound, and a Qin Army soldier covered in blood was stabbed to death by His Royal Highness's guards and fell in front of the palace gate.
Suddenly, the soldiers of King Qin who rushed over started fighting head-on with the guards of His Highness the Crown Prince.
The military discipline of the Tang Dynasty was strict. The prince gave an order and led dozens of his guards to rush towards the large group of people who came to meet him.
For a moment, there were flashes of swords and shadows outside the palace, and clanging sounds could not be stopped. There were even shouts from the soldiers and guards who fell to the ground after being hit by swords.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had a gloomy face and quickly ran towards his large group of troops.
Yuchi Jingde stood under the military flag, stared ahead, looked at the King of Qin in front of him, and shouted coldly: "Your Highness, can we attack now?"
King Qin replied quietly: "Let them come over!"
When a fierce general in the prince's palace saw his master returning, he held a long sword and shouted: "Kill these guys!"
He clamped the war horse between his feet, and with his men on horseback, he rushed towards the Qin army soldiers who were chasing behind the prince on the long street. The war horse suddenly roared with overwhelming momentum.
Suddenly there was a scream of pain in the long street, as well as the terrifying sound of the blade and sword energy entering the bones, and the roar of the men and horses after they fell to the ground.
A loud shout rang out, but it was the guards who rushed forward and stabbed the chests of the soldiers of the Qin army who were following His Royal Highness with their swords.
Blood spread instantly on the long street...
