"boom-"
"kill!"
Soon, the gate of the imperial city was broken open, and under the leadership of Huangfu Weiming, the Longyou Army was almost overwhelming.
It took less than half a moment to successfully breach the imperial city gate.
Huangfu Weiming, who was in charge of the central army, was shocked when he saw the imperial city gate being directly breached. He felt that the imperial city gate was broken open in front of him like the door to success.
At the same time, he couldn't help but feel a little contempt for the imperial guards guarding the capital.
These troops in the capital had been relaxed and far away from the battlefield for a long time, so how could they compare to the battle-hardened Longyou Army under his command in terms of combat effectiveness.
Judging from the situation just along the way, the garrison of these capitals was completely defeated when faced with his Longyou army.
Now that the gate of the Imperial City has been broken open, the defense of the entire Imperial City will be wide open for him. With the number and combat strength of the Imperial City's garrison on weekdays, how can they withstand his 20,000 Longyou army of tigers and wolves? .
As long as he can control the imperial city and the emperor Li Longji before the four forbidden armies of Long Wu, Yu Lin, Yu Lin, and Tiance of Beiya arrive, he can directly decide the outcome in this battle.
Thinking of this.
Huangfu Weiming couldn't help but feel refreshed.
The whole process went much smoother than he imagined.
"General, the gate of the imperial city has been broken."
The generals under Huangfu Weiming also reported to Huangfu Weiminghui the moment they broke through the gate of the imperial city.
"Soldiers are valuable and quick. Leave a thousand soldiers and horses to take over the city gate. The others will follow my envoy into the palace."
"promise."
"Drive! Drive!"
A thousand soldiers and horses were left to take over the captured imperial city gate, and Huangfu Weiming led the remaining Longyou army directly into the palace.
At the same time, in the palace, Xuanwu Gate.
"Reporting to the two generals, the Longyou Army has breached the gate of the Imperial City, and Huangfu Weiming is leading the Longyou Army to attack the Imperial City."
"Blocking other passages will lead Longyou Army to Xuanwu Gate."
"promise."
——
The Longyou Army has invaded the imperial city!
At the same time, in Chang'an City outside the Imperial City, as the Longyou Army led by Huangfu Weiming invaded the Imperial City, there was a huge wave in an instant.
The Long You Army actually succeeded in attacking the Imperial City. If the Long You Army really captured the Imperial City, especially the Emperor, and took control of it, I can't even imagine how far the situation would develop.
For a time, everyone in Chang'an, from the dignitaries to the common people, had their hearts in their throats, nervously paying attention to the situation in the palace.
In particular, it is absolutely inevitable that they would be involved in the incident, including Prince Li Heng, a series of powerful officials in the court, and a series of related civil and military officials in the court, such as Li Linfu and Bai Yuxian.
The success or failure of the Longyou Army will basically determine the life and death between the two camps.
In Tiance Mansion, the entire Tiance Mansion was also tense.
There is also the Wuhou Mansion nearby. After hearing the news, Mrs. Bai, Mrs. Wang and other people in the Wuhou Mansion were so shocked that they could not speak. They were extremely frightened. They were worried that if the Longyou Army won this battle, Bai Yuxian He Tiance Mansion will definitely face disaster.
When the time comes, their Wuhou Mansion may also be implicated.
The entire Wuhou Mansion had never thought that the capital of the Tang Dynasty, which had been peaceful for so many years, would undergo such huge changes in such a short period of time.
The entire Wuhou Mansion became panic-stricken.
Not even just Wuhou Mansion.
Throughout the capital, countless people were in panic at this moment.
"good!"
In the East Palace, Prince Li Heng, Li Shizhi, Wei Jian and others were excited when they heard the news that Longyou Army had invaded the imperial city.
The Longyou Army is a tiger and wolf division, and it has an army of 20,000.
The number of garrison troops in the imperial city is only about 10,000 on weekdays.
With such a huge gap in numbers and combat power, once the Longyou Army led by Huangfu Weiming invades the imperial city, the next situation will not be smooth sailing.
I have to say that under normal circumstances, Prince Li Heng's idea is indeed correct.
But unfortunately, the actual situation is that they were part of the calculations jointly planned by Bai Yuxian and Li Linfu from beginning to end.
The news they had just received was nothing but information that Bai Yuxian had planned to leak to them in advance with his father-in-law Han Su when he entered the palace, with the purpose of inducing them to mutiny.
In the palace, the Longwu Army and Tiance Army led by Bai Yuxian and Chen Xuanli, a total of one hundred thousand troops, were waiting for the Longyou Army led by Huangfu Weiming at the Xuanwu Gate in the palace.
In this case, the results are almost self-evident.
——
Imperial City.
As the Longyou Army led by Huangfu Weiming invaded, the entire imperial city soon became filled with shouts of killing.
After capturing the gate of the imperial city, the Longyou Army was unstoppable and quickly reached the Xuanwu Gate.
However, the moment he led the army into the Xuanwu Gate, Huangfu Weiming's expression suddenly changed. Because with his powerful cultivation and perception of the martial arts spiritual aperture realm, he had already felt a strong dangerous aura coming from the surrounding city walls.
Want to retreat.
"Clang!"
The Xuanwu Gate that had just been opened behind him and other surrounding gates were immediately closed in an instant. In an instant, the entire Longyou Army's retreat was cut off and they were trapped within the city wall, like a turtle in a urn.
At this time, on the surrounding towers, Bai Yuxian and Chen Xuanli also appeared, leading the Longwu Army and Tiance Army that had been ambushing them for a long time.
"Bold Huangfu Weiming, you dare to rebel!"
Bai Yuxian shouted directly, looked at Huangfu Weiming who was surrounded below and said coldly.
Swish, swish, swish!
As Bai Yuxian finished speaking, the Tiance Army and Long Wu Army on the city tower also fired their bows and arrows, aiming at the Longyou Army below.
"Form up! Defend!"
Huangfu Weiming's face changed greatly, but he remained calm in the face of danger. He shouted loudly and his Longyou Army quickly gathered around to form a defensive formation, and raised their shields to resist arrows.
"Bai Yuxian! Chen Xuanli!"
Huangfu Weiming looked at Bai Yuxian and Chen Xuanli on the tower with an ugly expression.
At this time, he still didn't understand that he had fallen into a trap. I was afraid that he had fallen into the trap from the moment he raised his troops. Otherwise, how could Bai Yuxian and Chen Xuanli have set up an ambush at Xuanwu Gate early? The key is that he No news prepared.
"Huangfu Weiming, let's capture him without mercy. Since we are both Tang Dynasty soldiers, General Chen and I don't want to cause more killings."
Bai Yuxian spoke again, looking at Huangfu Weiming below.
Although he was an enemy, he was also a Tang Dynasty soldier and a descendant of China. Especially for the Longyou army's achievements in guarding Longyou against foreigners for many years, Bai Yuxian still admired him very much.
Therefore, he did not want to cause too many killings unless necessary.
"Haha, let's take it easy. I, Huangfu Weiming, have spent my whole life in the army, only to die standing, not to live on my knees."
"Bai Yuxian, you colluded with Li Linfu to suppress loyalty and bring trouble to the court. You and other treacherous ministers have rebelled against the party. Everyone will punish them. Even if I, Huangfu Weiming, cannot kill you today, in the future there will be people who will do harm to the people."
Huangfu Weiming looked up to the sky and laughed.
"Treacherous ministers and rebels?"
Bai Yuxian couldn't help but smile when he heard this, and looked at Huangfu Weiming.
"Since I became an official, I, Bai Yuxian, have been loyal to the emperor, patriotic, and put down rebellions. I have never done anything to disgrace His Majesty or the Tang Dynasty. If you say that I, Bai Yuxian, am a treacherous minister and a rebel, then you should show me the real truth." Evidence, don’t talk nonsense here.”
"I, Bai Yuxian, are upright and have a clear conscience. On the contrary, you, Huangfu Weiming, are now at the peak of His Majesty's spring and Autumn period, but you have been secretly believing in Wei Jian for many years to support the crown prince. What do you really want? Do you have His Majesty in your heart?"
"You keep saying that I, Bai Yuxian, and Prime Minister Li are traitors and rebels. I think you are the traitors and rebels. You carry out mutiny under the banner of the banner. Who is the traitor and who is the traitor?"
Bai Yuxian shouted coldly.
Huangfu Weiming's face turned red with anger, but he didn't know how to refute.
At this time, Bai Yuxian was too lazy to talk to Huangfu Weiming anymore.
Since he is stubborn and refuses to surrender, don't blame him for being ruthless.
Give the order directly and coldly.
"Since he is stubborn, then kill him!"
"put!"
Whoosh!
The sound of arrows piercing the air instantly sounded on the top of the city.
I saw arrows raining down at Huangfu Weiming and the Longyou army below.
