Chapter 293: Li Shimin's Success and Failure(1/2)

Li Shimin raised his arm, and the next moment, three hundred strong men behind him drew their swords together. The crisp sound of the blade suddenly sounded, and invisible murderous intent spread.

"Father, I am for the Tang Dynasty. I hope my father can understand my good intentions! I wake up early! Otherwise, my son will have to help myself!" Li Shimin said again, his tone very sincere, as if he was persuading Li Yuan to return to his lost path.

Li Yuan roared angrily: "Disappy son, defiant son! Do you still dare to kill me?"

The angry Li Yuan's body trembled and his heart was filled with turmoil.

Li Jiancheng supported Li Yuan, his legs were already swaying. He was not sure whether Li Shimin dared to kill his father, but he was sure that he dared to kill himself. At this time, Li Jiancheng felt very regretful because Wang Gui and Li Jing had reminded Li Jiancheng,

——Of course, Li Jing and Wang Gui reminded him that they were afraid that Li Jiancheng would settle the score later. How could he not discover the enemy’s conspiracy as a strategist? So Li Jing and Wang Gui reminded him when Li Jiancheng was admiring the singing and dancing, and there was a beauty in his arms. At that time, Li Jiancheng was full of women in his mind, so naturally he didn’t think much. Instead, he thought that Wang Gui and Li Jing were worried too much.

If I had prepared myself, how could I be as passive as I am now?

At this moment, Li Shimin walked forward, and his leather boots stepped on the white stone slab and made a sound, as if they were stepping on everyone's hearts, and his voice became very cold: "Since the father is so determined, I'll do it myself!"

The imperial guards who protected Li Yuan quickly stood together to form a wall of people to stop Li Shimin, but they were captured by Li Shimin's momentum. Not to mention going forward to take the initiative to attack, they were so scared that they retreated backwards.

Li Shimin didn't want to delay any longer, so he quickly settled to be completely relieved, so Li Shimin shouted: "Take it!"

Hou Junji and Cheng Yaojin shouted loudly, and immediately led the strong men behind him to rush to the rush, directly colliding with the blocking imperial guards. Hou Junji and Cheng Yaojin killed all directions, like two evil gods, unstoppable.

"Your Majesty, go quickly!" The commander of the imperial guards tried his best to block the other party and shouted at Li Yuan.

Li Yuan was also panicked, and he was afraid that Li Shimin would grit his teeth and end him directly. After all, is there little in history to kill his father and seize the throne? So he hurriedly retreated, hoping that reinforcements would rescue him as soon as possible.

Unfortunately, Li Yuan and others ran twenty or thirty meters, and Li Shimin's men solved most of the imperial guards and began to chase after him.

Once surrounded by them, today's incident will be a foregone conclusion.

Li Jiancheng hurriedly turned around and saw that Li Shimin had already chased him. He was immediately frightened and staggered and almost fell down.

Is he dead today? He is unwilling to give up, he is unwilling to give up! He hasn't taken the throne yet!

At this time, Li Shimin's mouth had a smile, as if victory was in sight.

Just as he was imagining the emperor of the Tang Dynasty and leading the Tang Dynasty to its peak, a group of soldiers suddenly rushed to the north, at a very fast speed. The leader shouted: "Don't be arrogant, traitors! Your Majesty, don't panic!"

When Li Shimin heard the sound, he frowned. He never expected that reinforcements would come, and the general in charge was Xue Wanche!

Late yesterday night, Li Jing and Wang Gui found Xue Wanche and told Xue Wanche that Li Shimin was preparing to take action today. Since the palace gate was closed, Xue Wanche could not enter the palace to report the matter. So after the three of them planned to summon the Eastern Palace guards first. When Li Shimin attacked the palace city, they entered the palace to rescue the emperor on the grounds of serving the king.

Moreover, Li Jing and Wang Gui guessed that Li Shimin would attack from Xuanwu Gate, and all Xue Wanche attacked from Xuande Gate, which led to the current scene!

Seeing that His Majesty and the Prince were still safe, Xue Wanche breathed a sigh of relief, and then accelerated and killed Li Shimin.

Li Shimin did not expect that reinforcements would arrive so soon, and the other party was Xue Wanche, the number one general in the Eastern Palace, which made Li Shimin feel unfair.

He knew Xue Wanche very well and knew his courage. He had been coveted by him, but unfortunately he could not take it for himself. What is a head-on confrontation? It is definitely a troublesome thing.

"Shoot, shoot arrows!" Li Shimin immediately ordered.

The strong men behind him immediately shot arrows at Li Yuan and Li Jiancheng, preparing to shoot and kill him on the spot.

At this moment, the inner officials and the imperial guards beside Li Yuan stood up and acted as walls to stand in front of Li Yuan, blocking the arrow feathers that were shooting.

These internal officials and imperial guards were carefully selected, loyal to Li Yuan and willing to pay their lives to protect Li Yuan.

But the other ministers who followed him were not so lucky. Many people were shot and killed directly. I originally thought that they would escape quickly with the emperor, but who knew that they would die quickly. If they hid somewhere, they might not die.

Li Jiancheng followed Li Yuan, and was not injured because there was a wall to resist it. But at this time, he was already frightened and collapsed on the ground, holding two internal officials who had been shot to death with both hands, continuing to act as his shield, not caring that they were shot into hedgehogs.

Seeing that Li Yuan and Li Jiancheng were in danger, Xue Wanche finally rushed over. They divided their troops into two groups, and some soldiers protected Li Yuan and Li Jiancheng, and the remaining people rushed towards Li Shimin.

At this time, Li Shimin was not sure whether Li Yuan died or not, because he had a corpse buried. To be on the safe side, he naturally had to rush up and give him a few more stabs.

Unfortunately, Xue Wanche has rushed over.

"Kill!" Li Shimin didn't say much nonsense and directly ordered a rush. Whether the plan could be successful depends on this time.

Soon, the two sides rushed into each other.

Although Hou Junji and Cheng Yaojin were very skilled in martial arts, Xue Wanche, Feng Li, Xie Shufang and others were not easy-to-efficient. For the final victory, the two sides began to fight to the death.

On the other side, the guards of the East Palace lifted the body and found Li Yuan and Li Jiancheng. Although they were frightened, they were not in danger.

Then, the personal guards escorted Li Yuan to evacuate here.

Li Shimin certainly could not let him go, so he asked Hou Junji and others to hold Xue Wanche back, and he led his troops to chase Li Yuan.

Xue Wanche wanted to keep Li Shimin, but because he was entangled by Cheng Yaojin, he couldn't do it for a while.

Seeing that Li Shimin was about to catch up, another twenty or thirty prince guards appeared, and the leader was Li Jing.

"Don't be rampant!" Li Jing shouted loudly and immediately stopped Li Shimin.

Li Shimin was furious and used a knife in his hand to chop Huashan, slashing at Li Jing.

Li Jing was not afraid at all, and directly drew his sword to hold the other party's big sword, and then fought with him.

At this moment, Li Shimin was a little anxious.

The delay in fighting Li Yuan and Li Jiancheng indicates that his plan will become more and more difficult to succeed. The longer the time delays, more reinforcements will come.

The more he thought about it, the more anxious he became. The knife in Li Shimin's hand became more and more fierce, pressing Li Jing to slash. Li Jing noticed Li Shimin's anxiety and understood that he had already lost his position, so Li Jing focused on defense and did not attack, so he continued to delay time.

For a moment, Li Shimin couldn't take Li Jing down.

Suddenly, footsteps came again not far away.

This surprised Li Shimin again. Turning around, it turned out to be Li Xiaogong!

Li Xiaogong actually came to rescue him!

In addition to panic, Li Shimin made a mistake in his movements. Li Jing saw the opportunity and stabbed it directly with a sword. He could have directly touched his heart, but he deliberately shifted and stabbed Li Shimin on the shoulder.

Li Shimin can die, but cannot die at the hands of Li Jing.

Li Shimin was hit by a sword, retreated immediately, and left the battle.

He squinted his eyes and looked at Li Jing, realizing that something was wrong, because he saw Li Jing's intentional release of water. Why? Why didn't he kill himself directly?

But soon, Li Shimin stopped thinking about this issue because there is still more important thing to consider now, that is, today's plan failed.

Li Xiaogong led his troops to help. Although there were only a few dozen people, it was already difficult for him to kill Li Yuan.

Li Shimin was very angry and helpless. When he was just before Xuanwu Gate, why bother talking nonsense? Wasting a little time in vain? If he could cherish that little time, would it be another result?

He did not regret what he did today, but he just regretted his failure.

But soon, Li Shimin calmed down and made a decision, so he did not continue to attack, but retreated and shouted to Hou Junji and Cheng Yaojin: "Retreat!"

From this point, we can see Li Shimin's character, decisive and tenacious. He knew that if he continued to stay here, he would not only not kill Li Yuan, but would instead become a turtle in the jar, so he had to escape from the palace.

Moreover, he had already calculated the way out and went out of the city directly. His family members of his confidant subordinates were sent out of the city, so there was no need to worry about implicating them. After escaping from the city, everyone fled westward, joined the Xuanjia Army, then went to find Li Ji, and then used Kucha as the territory to expand their troops and make a comeback when the time came!

So Li Shimin hasn't lost yet, he has other opportunities!

Li Shimin withdrew, but Cheng Yaojin and Hou Junji did not dare to fight and retreated towards Xuanwu Gate.

Xue Wanche suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked Feng Li and Xie Shufang to chase the enemy, while he went to protect Li Yuan and Li Jiancheng.

"I will come late to rescue you. Please ask Your Majesty, the Crown Prince to atone for your sins!" Xue Wanche and Li Jing came to Li Yuan and saluted quickly.

At the same time, Li Xiaogong also arrived and saluted and saw him: "Your Majesty, I'm scared!"

Li Yuan was indeed frightened, his face looked ugly, and he also had the honor of surviving the disaster.

"Your dear request! If it weren't for you, I would have suffered an accident today!" Li Yuan personally helped the three of them up.

Then, Li Yuan gritted his teeth and shouted: "It is best to quickly arrest Li Shimin and his accomplices. If the other party resists death, kill them without any hesitation!"

At this moment, Li Yuan hated Li Shimin and completely ignored the father and son's affection.

Xue Wanche and Li Jing immediately received the order and then led their troops to chase the enemy. Li Xiaogong stayed and protected Li Yuan.

Li Shimin escaped from the palace and immediately fled out of the city. The people along the way were so scared that they avoided it and did not know what had happened.

When we arrived at the Xicheng Gate, the city gate here had not been blocked yet, and the city guard had long been bribed by Li Shimin, so we escaped directly.

Looking back at Chang'an City, Li Shimin was so angry that he gritted his teeth. Today's failure made him extremely regretful, but unfortunately he had no power to turn the world back.

.........

The majestic and solemn palace city in the past has become messy at this time.

After Li Shimin escaped, Qin Qiong and Yuchi Gong, who were attracting troops to the south of the palace city, also fled and escaped from Chang'an City.

A large number of imperial guards have blocked the palace city, and the moat camp outside the city has also taken over Chang'an City. At this moment, the people know what happened. After learning the news, the people were confused. The King of Qin actually rebelled?

this...

this...

Today's incident is too big and it is a big shocking event.

After Li Yuan returned to his peace, he immediately ordered the pursuit of Li Shimin, and arrested all officials involved in the rebellion, and investigated them thoroughly and not let go of any suspects!

So in the next few days, the whole city of Chang'an was in panic.

The troops pursuing Li Shimin did not stop and were pursuing him. However, Li Shimin, who had fled from Kyoto, just entered the sea. How easy was it to pursue him?

.........

When Yang Shuang received the news, it was already the 22nd day of the twelfth lunar month.
