Under the enemy's machine guns, the guards could only use their bodies to resist.

Xue Rengui, Su Dingfang, Yuchi Gong and others also used their bodies to block bullets for the three people who opened the city gate! !

Li Chengqian and Li Shimin hurried forward to help, and with the combined efforts of the five of them, they were finally able to move the beam, which should have been opened only by the machinery on the city wall.

The city gate slowly opened, and what greeted them was a faint morning light, and the figures of the Eighth Route Army soldiers rushing to them at the risk of their lives! !

Da da da....

Puff puff!

The Tang Dynasty soldiers used their last bit of strength to hold their bodies tightly against the open city gate.

They endured the pain of constant bullet hits on their bodies.

Some people were beaten into two pieces, but they still clenched their teeth and crawled on the ground towards the city gate.

Some of them had half of their shoulders knocked off, but they still held their comrades' bodies tightly and used their weight to hold down the city gate together with their comrades.

Li Chengqian, Li Shimin, and Li Jing who had been shot three times, the three of them were well protected and were trapped by layers of corpses.

On the other side, the Japanese saw that the Eighth Route Army outside the city was about to rush into the city, so they quickly gave up shooting and ran forward to close the city gate again.

At this time, Li Jing used up his last breath, pushed away the corpses that were pressing on himself, Li Chengqian and Li Shimin, and pounced on the beast.

Li Chengqian and Li Shimin managed to break free, but they were already at the end of their strength.

“Hahaha, so refreshing!!”

Li Shimin laughed wildly and kept coughing up blood from the corners of his mouth, but he still held the Tang sword tightly and glared at the Japs.

Li Chengqian chopped down a Japanese soldier with one sword, but then countless bayonets pierced his body.

"Kill~~~"

Li Shimin let out a final roar, chopped down two beasts, and was stabbed in the heart!

The three men eventually fell, but the Eighth Route Army also arrived at the city gate.

They had no time to care about the Tang Dynasty soldiers, they had to control the city gates first.

The soldiers stepped over the corpses of the Tang Dynasty soldiers and fought fiercely with the Japanese in the city gate!

The sound of gunfire, shouting, and the tearing sound of flesh being hacked!

But these have nothing to do with Li Chengqian and the others...

When he opened his eyes, everyone had returned to the East Palace.

Looking at the familiar yet strange scene, everyone seemed to have had a very long dream, and they all stood there speechless for a long time...

It was not until the sound of Li Xiang playing as a child was heard outside the door that everyone came to their senses!

"I'm back to the Tang Dynasty, but I feel a little reluctant to leave..." Cheng Yaojin sighed.

Li Shimin sighed deeply and sat down on the ground.

He looked at his clean hands and asked: "Have we won? Can the Eighth Route Army successfully capture the whole city?"

Li Chengqian whispered: "We will definitely win, for sure!!"

Everyone was recalling their experiences over the past three days, which seemed like a fleeting dream.

Especially Li Shimin, Xue Rengui, Di Renjie and others who participated in the time travel for the first time.

They all looked at Li Chengqian with strange eyes, and finally understood why people like Li Jing and Cheng Yaojin would follow the prince so wholeheartedly.

"The mountains and rivers shed endless tears, who says the world is broad? The mountains and rivers are broken, the people of the country are fighting for them, China will not perish..." Li Chengqian said slowly.

Li Jing opened the door, and the bright sunshine outside was as brilliant as that in later generations.

But the sunshine in the Tang Dynasty was so peaceful, while the sunshine in later generations was so cruel.

"Japanese country..."

Li Shimin stood up and said: "Japan must be destroyed!"

Li Shimin turned around and glanced at Li Chengqian: "You have a good rest, I'm leaving first."

Li Chengqian waved his hand, indicating that Li Shimin could leave.

The father and son seemed to have returned to their relationship as enemies.

But this time Li Shimin was not angry. Instead, he smiled with relief and strode away.

He has something important to do, very important!

If you want to destroy Japan, you must maintain stability in the Tang Dynasty.

Aristocratic family...

When Li Shimin returned to the Wude Hall, he immediately summoned ministers including Zhangsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, and Chu Suiliang.

In order to subdue Changsun Wuji, he first had to win over the Guanlong gentry.

Only by unifying the Guanlong gentry could the royal family have the strength to confront the Shandong gentry head-on.

Although he did not intend to confront him head-on, it was necessary to be prepared.

Soon, Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling came to the Wude Hall again.

They had just left not long ago, and had not even had time to leave the palace, but they were summoned by His Majesty again. They were a little confused.

But when the two men looked up after paying their respects to Li Shimin!!

There was shock in both of their eyes.

Your Majesty has become younger, obviously younger!!

Not only did the wrinkles on his face become much lighter, but even his gray hair and beard turned a lot darker.

The key is the spirit and momentum. They seem to see again the Khan in his prime, the one who dominated the world! !

Li Shimin closed his eyes and ignored them. He was waiting for other ministers to come and was also recalling the shock brought to him by the three-day experience.

If you want to destroy Japan, you must first stabilize the basic base of the aristocratic families.

Then he launched an expedition to Goguryeo in the east, learning Yang Guang's methods and drawing a large number of troops from various places controlled by aristocratic families to the battlefield for consumption.

Weaken the power of the aristocratic families as much as possible. After conquering Goguryeo, you can give some of Goguryeo's interests to the aristocratic families as compensation.

At that time, we will launch a plan to cross the sea and conquer Japan. The noble families who have gained the benefits will certainly be willing to set foot in Japan. By then...

While Li Shimin was planning his grand strategy to deal with the aristocratic families, the aristocratic families were also meeting secretly to discuss how to deal with the sudden change in the royal family's attitude towards them.

"We can't stay in Chang'an anymore. With the cruelty the prince has shown towards the noble families, I'm afraid he will take action against us."

"If he dares, he is not afraid of becoming the second Yang Guang!!"

"Don't forget that there is also Li Shimin. Li Shimin is not comparable to Yang Guang. The power controlled by Li Tang is not weaker than ours!"

At this time, someone looked at Chang'an Wei and asked, "As a noble family in Guanzhong, what are your plans?"

The man frowned and said slowly after a moment of silence, "Changsun Wuji has already entered the palace. Li Shimin will definitely take some action..."

"You don't want to surrender to Li Tang!!"

The man raised his head and said, "What can I do? There are rumors everywhere in the streets that Chang'an Wei and Du are three feet away from the sky. This means that my Wei and Du families are only one foot and five inches away from the sky."

"Do you think Li Shimin doesn't know about this rumor?"

After sighing, the man continued, "It is very likely that Zhangsun Wuji will submit to Li Shimin. After all, he is still a relative of the emperor. The other noble families in Guanlong will also most likely turn to the royal family, including the Du and Wei families. As for you, the noble families in Shandong."

The man shook his head and said, "I can't control it, and I can't do anything about it. If you are not afraid, you can create chaos in the world again and see if you can shake the foundation of the Li Tang Dynasty!"

These words caused everyone present to fall silent.

Yes, do they want the world to be in chaos again?
