In the dark night, the rain gradually increased, and the rebels launched a fierce attack on Wude Hall from the west and south like a tide. They braved the hail of bullets from the right guard and spared no casualties, and the shouts of killing were earth-shattering.
Yuchi Gong and Li Daozong, the two most elite troops in the Tang Empire, showed a strong fighting style. Even though they knew they would die, no one retreated. The whole army was unswervingly determined and willing to go through fire and water and die in battle under the orders of the commander. .
Countless soldiers fell on the road of charge. Corpses were piled on top of each other on the roads of Wudemen, Qianhuamen, Xianchunmen, Rihuamen and other palace gates, and blood flowed like rivers. This kind of using human lives to consume the opponent The battle for ammunition is tense, brutal, and suffocating.
Even though both Yu Chigong and Li Daozong were veteran generals who had experienced battles for a long time and were used to seeing life and death, their hearts were as solid as stone. They still felt their hearts throbbing and found it difficult to breathe because of the rapid casualties of their soldiers.
However, a heavy rain falling from the sky extinguished the fierce firepower of the Youtun Guards and gave the rebels endless hope
As Youtunwei's firearms encountered more and more malfunctions in the rain, and their firepower weakened, the morale of the rebels was greatly boosted, and the charge became more fierce. With their superiority in strength, they gradually compressed Youtunwei's front, and the Wude army was The palaces outside the palace were captured one by one, forcing the Youtun Guards to slowly withdraw their battle lines.
On the Chengtian Gate Tower, after hearing the battle report, Li Zhi used strong self-control to prevent himself from dancing with joy, but his face was full of joy but he could not suppress it no matter what.
He pointed at the heavy rain outside the window, feeling quite proud: "Dear ladies, can you see this? This rain is a warning from God. The invincible Youtun Guards have lost the power of their firearms because of this heavy rain. Wudedian It will be captured by the joint forces of Jiangxia County Prince and E Guogong, and I am the one destined by destiny!"
Xiao Yu, Chu Suiliang and others quickly stood up, bowed to the ground, and congratulated them all.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? When the firepower of the Youtun Guards was fierce and no one could stop them, a heavy rain suddenly fell. What is this if not a "response from heaven and man"?
Maybe the King of Jin is really God's will. When such a heavy rain extinguishes Youtunwei's firearms, it can also completely annihilate Li Chengqian's rule in Taiji Palace
"Your Highness, Cui Xin was ordered to gather the Shandong private army, maintain order in the city, and meet with the naval forces led by Liu Rengui who entered the city. The two sides were fighting in Tianjie. The battle was intense and it was difficult to determine the winner for a while."
The scout presented the military situation, which calmed Li Zhi's agitated mood slightly.
Mingdemen was captured so quickly?
Li Zhi frowned and asked, "What are the movements of the armies outside the city?"
"Except for Liu Rengui leading his army into the city, Cheng Yaojin was temporarily stationed near Yuanqiu, Xue Wanche was stationed at Mingde Gate, and Zheng Rentai was repairing the area between Anhua Gate and Mingde Gate, but there was no movement."
"Well, it seems that Xue, Liu, and Zheng are still worried about this old man Cheng Yaojin"
Li Zhi thought thoughtfully, which is a good thing. Regardless of what Cheng Yaojin thinks, the several armies are currently restricting each other and no one can trust the other, giving him enough time to capture Wude Palace.
"Send an order to Cui Xin. Even if Liu Rengui cannot be defeated, Tianjie must be blocked at all costs to prevent him from approaching Chengtian Gate to buy time for the Prince of Jiangxia and the Duke of E!"
Although there were not many naval soldiers under Liu Rengui, they were extremely well-equipped and extremely powerful. From the south of the Yangtze River all the way north along the canal, they successively severely damaged the private armies along the way. Even famous generals like Zheng Rentai were beaten to death by him. Abandoning his armor, he was even forced to surrender No matter how much Cui Xin had the advantage in military strength, he might not be Liu Rengui's opponent.
However, there are so many private soldiers in Shandong that they can hold Liu Rengui back even if they risk their lives
"Here!"
The scout received the order, turned around and left quickly.
*****
At Yinshi, the Wude Palace was still brightly lit, and the rebels launched a tidal wave of offensive outside the palace gate. The sound of killing was loud, and their respective family records were still left in the palace. Now the rebels were raging in Chang'an, burning, killing, and looting. The people in the palace were All the civil and military ministers were worried and agitated. How could they sleep?
Battle reports flew into Wude Hall like snowflakes.
Sudden heavy rain, Youtunwei's firearms malfunctioned, and its combat power was limited. The rebel offensive was fierce and the battle situation was tense
Many ministers who stayed in the palace looked at each other and remained silent.
"The induction of heaven and man" has existed since ancient times and is a Confucian theory. It was carried forward by Dong Zhongshu. Dong Zhongshu combined "Heaven and Man's Induction" with the theory of disasters in "The Legend of Gongyang" and the Mohist theory of "Heaven's Punishment". He believed that "Heaven also has emotions of joy, anger, sorrow and joy", giving "Heaven" a personified charm. , and "Heaven" will express his emotions through various natural phenomena, and then "warn"A consolation that is not a consolation: "being born early is enough."
The world is unkind and treats all things like rotten dogs. However, there has never been any fairness in this world. Xiang Yu, the most domineering king in the world, will eventually commit suicide in Wujiang. Liu Bang, a shameless child in the market, can enjoy the world and ascend to the throne. How can there be any fairness? Can it be said?
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Taking one step early, and being born one day before, is enough to doom it to great things, and no matter how great the talents are, and the plans of the world, they are still out of reach
Li Chengqian turned his head, looked at Li Ji with a faint look, and said after a while: "Young Master is really sharp in words and able to comfort people."
Li Ji ignored the teasing in His Majesty's words, smiled, and said calmly: "It is destiny for Your Majesty to sit on the throne. Why should you doubt yourself just because someone is unsatisfied, unfaithful, and unfilial?" (note) Please visit our website: www.hlnovel.com
