Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

Seeing this, Li Yuan knew something was wrong, because the aura of loyal officials throughout the ages is the easiest to contagious, the easiest to confuse people's hearts.

Immediately, he flew into a rage and urged: "Guo Aiqing, what are you waiting for? Do you still not do anything?"

"Leader!"

Guo Ye yelled loudly, then held the saber with one hand, suddenly turned his wrist and raised the saber to Li Yuan who was above the Dragon Court, and shouted: "All the officers and men listen to the order, and by the order of the emperor, quickly send the Supreme Emperor, Prince Chengqian, and King Lu to the throne. , Jing Wang and other rebels took it down! If there are rebels, they will be shot and killed!!!”

"Here!"

Hundreds of soldiers moved after hearing the sound, but in the blink of an eye, Li Yuan and Li Chengqian on the Dragon Court were surrounded.

King Lu, King Jing, and King Daoxiao were pinned to the ground by a group of soldiers, unable to move at all.

In an instant, strange peaks protrude, the universe changes abruptly, and the color of the world changes.

Guo Ye was alone, supporting the sky with one hand, turning the situation upside down, and the chaos stopped in an instant!

Before everyone in the court could fully react, Guo Ye suddenly turned around, swung the horizontal knife and placed it on Changsun Wuji's shoulder, moving the blade half an inch closer, it was Changsun Wuji's neck.

Looking at Changsun Wuji who was stunned, Guo Ye shook his head and sneered, "Master Changsun, if you want to keep your head, you must not move around, or the sword will have no eyes. But I have to give you back a word, we are not Family!"

After finishing speaking, he shouted loudly: "All the officers and men obey the order, take down Tang Jian and all the officials who defected to the party and rebel, and wait for the return of the royal driver before releasing them!"

So much so~

For a moment, almost [-] leading guards surrounded more than half of the officials of Tiance Mansion, pointing their blades at them, and they were all the generation who were just now supporting the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan.

Changsun Wuji sighed, looked at Guo Ye bitterly, gritted his teeth, and said, "You... you, you..."

Unexpectedly, for a long time, I was stunned and couldn't say a word.

At this time, Wei Zheng, Wei Ting, including Chu Suiliang and the others realized that Guo Ye hadn't betrayed him, and they misunderstood him just now.

For a while, all the officials who had cursed out of anger just lowered their heads in shame. They scolded so hard before that they nearly dug up the ancestral grave of Lao Guo's family. It would be strange if they didn't feel ashamed.

Only Kong Yingda, an old ghost, squinted his eyes and was whispering in Wei Zheng's ear, as if he was explaining something, and his expression was more like showing off.

On the Dragon Court, Li Chengqian was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground, and he was about to foam at the mouth unconsciously.

And Li Yuan was also shocked by the sudden reversal of the chess game in front of him. It was difficult for him to accept this reality, but he had to believe that he mistrusted Guo Ye, and was tricked by this thief instead.

Lost!

Lost in unknown people!

Although Li Yuan was surrounded, he was still able to open his mouth and yell loudly, yelling at the court: "Guo Ye, Guo Ye, you have been hiding from Gu for so long? Are you deliberately getting close to Gu?"

"bingo!"

After the two soldiers around Guo Yechong took down Changsun Wuji, he put away the horizontal knife in his hand, put it into its sheath with a bang!

Then he replied to Li Yuan: "The Supreme Emperor, didn't you also say that that night? I, Guo Ye, am the emperor's confidant. Since I am a confidant, how can I be controlled by others if I am threatened by you, and I will humiliate my ancestors and cause chaos What about the affairs of the country and the country?"

"Bastard, aren't you afraid that your brother will die because of you?"

"Haha, you mean Guan Jiujiu? I guess this kid is already on his way back to Chang'an under the protection of the Black Armored Xuanbing. As for Wang Bodang, don't worry, I'm probably waiting for news of your loss of power." Rumor has it that Tuyuhun has been completely rescued, and he hid in some deep mountain forest to drink."

"So you've been doing things in secret all this time? Good, good!"

Li Yuan suddenly knocked off the purple golden crown on his head with a wave of his hand, and his silver hair swayed in the wind, like a howling lion, he roared: "Guo Ye, have you forgotten the Hou Junji outside Chang'an city? Just relying on the [-] leading guards in your city, how can you stop the Jinwu Guards from attacking the city. As long as you miss in the palace alone, Hou Junji will definitely lead the left and right Jinwu Guards to attack Chang'an City. Hmph, as long as Hou Junji can delay it until The arrival of Li Xiaogong's army in Tuyuhun will mean your death without a burial!"

"Left and right Jinwu guards? Don't dream, too emperor!"

Guo Ye curled his lips, shook his head disdainfully and said, "Do you think Hou Junji can support the left Jinwu guard in Helan Bridge Mountain? As for Hou Junji's right Jinwu guard, heh heh, I'm afraid he can't protect himself, right? You Didn't you notice who was missing in today's early court?"

Li Yuan scanned the hall subconsciously, and shouted: "Li Jing? Li Jing left the city?"

"Hahaha... A wise man will make a mistake if he thinks about it! The Supreme Emperor, thanks to your clever calculations, you missed the Duke of Wei Li Jing!"

Guo Ye looked at Li Yuan who was gone with pity, shook his head and said with a light smile: "By virtue of Duke Wei's prestige in the army and the familiarity of his disciples in the army, believe it or not, he only needs to go to the right in front of the tens of thousands of Jinwu Guards. With such a stop, can you kill without bloodshed, and even a few words can cause the tens of thousands of troops of the Right Jinwu Guard to mutiny, and capture the rebel Hou Junji alive?"

Chapter 1022 Confrontation between the two armies outside the city

At this time, it was less than three miles away from the east gate of Chang'an City, on an open plain.

Because there was no news from the palace, Hou Junji led more than 2 soldiers and horses of the Right Jinwu Guard and marched towards the east gate of Chang'an City according to the established plan that the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan had discussed with him earlier.

This time, he is going to use the second set of plans to break through Chang'an City and force the palace to remonstrate, in order to respond to the actions of the Supreme Emperor in the palace.

But less than three miles away from the east gate of Chang'an City, the team stagnated, as if they had encountered a block ahead.

"Report..."

The scouts in front rode their horses to report back to Hou Junji, who was sitting in the middle army, and shouted: "Report to Duke Lu, there is General He Lanqiaoshan of the Zuo Jinwu Guard in front of us blocking our way and preventing our army from moving forward. Move half a step."

"Helan Bridge Mountain?"

Sitting on the horse, Hou Junji raised his hand, tightened the reins suddenly, and cursed sullenly, "Helan Qiaoshan, that bastard dares to block my way. Is he going to rebel?"

At the same time, there were two lieutenants of the Right Jinwu Guard, Xu Xiangbiao, the left lieutenant of the Zuo Jinwu Guard, and Zheng Baozhong, the right lieutenant of the Zuo Jinwu Guard, flanking Hou Junji on horseback.

And behind Hou Junji, there were also six captains of the Left Jinwu Guard who rode their horses.

Everyone stopped their horses one after another, and after listening to the scout's report and Hou Junji's cursing, the two lieutenants on the left and right looked at each other with suspicion on their faces.

And the six leading lieutenants were talking in low voices, all with dazed expressions.

Hou Junji was full of evil fire, and when he noticed the clues of the people behind him, he immediately turned down his face and shouted: "Shut up, and anyone who talks in private, beheaded!"

After finishing speaking, he raised the whip in his hand and shouted at the scout scout: "Lead the way ahead, this general will personally meet that ungrateful bastard Helanqiaoshan!"

After the words were finished, Hou Junji had already galloped out with his whip and horse, and galloped to the front of the formation.

The left deputy general Xu Xiangbiao and the right deputy general Zheng Baozhong shouted in unison: "Go, I will go to the front of the battle to take a look."

The six leading lieutenants behind him were naturally not to be outdone, and chased after them one after another.

After a while, several people followed Hou Junji to the front of the formation.

A hundred steps away from the front of the formation, flags were already flying, and the sound of drums was shaking the sky. When one looked up, people and horses a hundred steps away could be seen moving quickly from side to side, as if they were arranging troops.

"One word long snake formation?"

Left deputy general Xu Xiangbiao blurted out subconsciously: "It seems that General He Lan is determined to intercept our army's way."

"Yes, if that's the case, it's not good."

Right lieutenant Zheng Baozhong smacked his lips and muttered: "Our Right Jinwu Guard is as strong as their Left Jinwu Guard, and the Long Snake Formation only defends but does not attack, and maximizes its defensive power. If you enter Chang'an City, even if you are lucky enough to defeat the opponent, you will kill one thousand enemies and lose eight hundred. At that time, entering Chang'an City will do nothing."
