Travel to the early Tang Dynasty and become a salted fish

Both parties thought that their own reinforcements had arrived, and everyone was very motivated. They all wanted to kill more enemies and make more military achievements before the reinforcements arrived.

As a result, the troops on both sides unleashed unprecedented fighting power, and the fight was inseparable.

Soon Yuchi Gong came to Li Shimin, turned over neatly, jumped off the horse, knelt down on one knee and saluted Li Shimin:

"Your Majesty, I am late to save you. I hope your Majesty will forgive me."

Li Shimin hurriedly stepped forward, helped Yuchi up and said respectfully:

"How could Jingde have such thoughts? It's too late for me to be happy, so how can I blame you?"

Seeing that Li Shimin really didn't mean to blame, Yuchi Gong secretly wiped his sweat.

He really didn't know that His Majesty's previous situation could be so dangerous.

When everyone was discussing before, they actually never thought about letting the garrison outside the city enter the city to quell the rebellion. Some people just thought that after the big explosion in Jingshanfang, there would be unrest in the city.

And these troops are just a back-up left by Li Shimin to prevent the situation from escalating.

In their opinion, His Majesty the Emperor had already understood the enemy's conspiracy and had laid a dragnet in the city. In addition, more than 15000 elite soldiers were ambushed in the palace.

Even if the other party unites the forces of the whole city, it is impossible to obtain benefits from His Majesty.

Therefore, after receiving the news of entering the city, they just thought that they were going to clean up the mess.

They never thought that they would enter the city to put down the rebellion.

When they entered Chang'an, they found that all the cities and towns were on fire, and the roads were full of thugs. Therefore, they preconceived the idea and immediately felt that His Majesty the Emperor had ordered them to enter the city to deal with these thugs.

Therefore, after the soldiers entered the city, they did not rush to the imperial city immediately. Instead, they began to clean up various cities and arrest the thugs on the streets in order to quickly restore order.

It wasn't until Li Shimin couldn't stand it anymore and sent Qianniu Guards to convey the order that everyone understood the seriousness of the matter.

With Yuchi Gong's first arrival, one after another, the other garrison commanders also led their soldiers and rushed here.

Looking at the reinforcements that kept coming, Li Shimin felt reassured, then he looked at Yuchi and said respectfully:

"Jingde, I'll leave these traitors to you."

"Jingde takes orders!"

After receiving Li Shimin's order, Yuchi Gong immediately got on his horse without saying a word, and then led his soldiers directly to join the battlefield.

The deputy lieutenant, who had been paying attention to the movements of the "reinforcements", suddenly felt something bad when he saw that his reinforcements had joined the enemy, talking and laughing.

Before he could react, he saw that the other party had joined the battle group and rushed towards him quickly.

For a moment, the deputy lieutenant was confused.

Where are the reinforcements that were promised?Why isn't it from my side?Or were these reinforcements bribed by the other party and betrayed the imperial court and the Tang Dynasty?

In an instant, the deputy lieutenant felt endless despair rushing towards him.

However, when he saw the rest of the troops arriving one after another behind Li Shimin, hope suddenly rose in his heart again.

That's right, my general has already gone around to the enemy's rear. Now the time has come. I think he will launch an encirclement soon. He only needs to hold on for a little while.

When the master attacks them and the enemy's rear becomes chaotic, he will be the first to do so.

"Brothers, hold on, our reinforcements have arrived. As long as we block this wave of enemy attacks, they will be dead!!!"

The captain yelled crazily at his colleagues around him.

I don't know if I want to boost morale, or if I want to shout out the fear in my heart.

With the addition of Yu Chigong, the two armies that were still in a stalemate suddenly became one-sided.

After a burst of iron hoofs, Zhang Taixin left his soldiers behind, killing most of them.

And the deputy lieutenant, during this charge, lay on the cold Suzaku Street forever with his eyes wide open and eyes closed.

It only took less than half a quarter of an hour. After Yuchi Gong's two rounds of charges, these rebels who were already extremely tired were all killed.

Looking at the broken limbs and broken arms on the ground, Li Shimin showed no mercy.

In his opinion, these are all treasons. Those who dare to betray the Tang Dynasty and betray themselves will deserve to die.

After dealing with these people who were blocking his way, Li Shimin turned his attention to Mingde Gate again.

If I remember correctly, those rebels seemed to have entered through Mingde Gate, and the Cui family and the people of the fifth and seventh surnames also left from there, right?

The majestic capital of a country is like a dry toilet, allowing anyone to come in and out!It's really not a pity to die for the guard.

Thinking of this, the nameless anger in his heart boiled up.

After leaving half of the troops to guard Chang'an, maintain public order and arrest the thugs, Li Shimin and Yu Chigong took the remaining half of the troops and approached Mingde Gate.

Soon, the army arrived in front of Mingde Gate.

Looking at the open door, and then at the gatekeepers who looked timid, thin, and looked like they had not had enough to eat, Li Shimin's mind was filled with doubts.

"Where is your guard?"

Upon hearing the question, everyone was silent and did not dare to speak.

"I'm asking you a question. Please answer quickly. Do you know that the person in front of you is His Majesty the current emperor!!"

Seeing no one answered, Yuchi Gong hurriedly spoke angrily.

When they heard that the emperor was coming, the gatekeepers immediately knelt down on the ground and kowtowed.

Seeing their appearance, Li Shimin's anger decreased a lot, but he was still a little unhappy:

"Didn't I decree this morning that all city gates should be closed? Why is the city gate open at Mingde Gate, allowing people to come and go at will?"

This time, I don’t know whether it was Li Shimin’s identity that played a role, or the gatekeepers enlightened.

Finally, an old veteran raised his head and said with a frightened look:

"Reporting to your Majesty, the young men just received an order from the Lord Guard, asking us to open the city gate wide and come in and out at will. We are all following orders."

"what!!!"

Li Shimin was shocked when he heard the old pawn's reply.

Then came the rage.

"How presumptuous!!! Who gave you the courage to openly defy the decree and dare to falsely pass on the decree!!!"

"Your Majesty, you are unjust. We are all just insignificant people. How could we dare to commit such a crime that would annihilate the nine tribes? We are all acting under orders."

When the old soldier heard that Li Shimin had falsely conveyed the imperial edict, he immediately shouted that he was wronged.

When Yuchi Gong on the side saw this, he couldn't bear it. He hurriedly stepped forward and whispered to Li Shimin:

"Your Majesty, such a big matter is indeed not something that these little pawns can decide. You should ask the guard here to question you."
