755 Battle for Power 5
The Habayashi guards guarding the Daming Palace are here to resist with all their strength because they all know one thing, that is, as long as they report to the guards of the Forbidden Garden outside the city, it will not take long for reinforcements to arrive. As long as the reinforcements arrive, It was not difficult to quell the rebellion, so Habayashi's resistance was so fierce.
What Xie Xiu did not expect was that he brought troops to support him and found that Wang Yanzhang had run away. There was not even a figure of the Longwu Army in sight. Only Yu Linwei was here with Zuo Xiaowei and You Wuwei’s betrayal. The army attacked and killed each other, which really made him a little anxious. But the good thing is that Habayashi can at least hold it, and it hasn't been disintegrated because of the retreat of the Dragon Martial Army.
Upstairs in Danfengmen City, Xie Xiu looked at Zuo Xiaowei’s camp in Changle Fang. He didn’t know what to do. The one stationed here was Zuo Xiaowei led by Feng Yao. From the current point of view, all of them were shrunk in the camp. It didn't look like a rebel at all, but Xie Xiu didn't dare to adjust these two thousand people. But seeing that the two thousand people here are unavailable, this must be a little frustrating in my heart.
And the farther Ruyuanfang and Xingningfang can obviously see the movement of the torches. It seems to know that something must have gone wrong, but even if this is the case, Feng Yao’s Zuo Xiaowei still doesn’t move. Xie Xiu couldn't understand.
But no matter whether Xie Xiu can see it or not, he can't control it. Now what he has to do is to defend here with all his strength, and he can't have the slightest idea of waiting for reinforcements to arrive. The messenger has been sent out, plus the city of Chang'an. The beacon has been ignited a long time ago, and the other military guards must have been preparing. I believe it will not be long before people will come.
In the Prince's Mansion, Tong Lihui brought people here, and combined with the guard rate in the original Prince's hand, it can be considered as a pool of nearly 3,000 people. With these people, for a time, Xingqing Palace will not send anyone to attack. One thing, Du Hongjian is quite sure.
Because he still knows how many soldiers there are in Xingqing Palace, besides, the right leading and right guards are coming soon, and the Xingqing Palace cannot be defended. This has to be said. Now send soldiers to attack. Here in Shengyefang, there is no possibility at all. He believes that Li Longji must be waiting for reinforcements.
Li Heng returned to the Prince's Mansion and looked all over his eyes, full of soldiers from above and below, and the sound of kneeling and worshiping one after another, instantly let his heart taste the pleasure of the power granted to him. This is completely different from kneeling on weekdays. This kind of inexplicable and powerful force, in his opinion, is probably the emperor's imperial power.
In the meeting room, Li Hengduan was above the first place and asked Du Hongjian: "Mr. Du, when can we attack Xingqing Palace? Now the beacon in the city has been ignited. I am afraid it will not be long before reinforcements are coming!"
"His Royal Highness, as long as Zuo Xiaowei and You Wuwei take over the gates of Chang'an, we have a lot of time. We are not in a hurry at this time. When the right leader Wei and the right guards all arrive, we can start to initiate the final against Xingqing Palace. It’s a blow, and I hope His Royal Highness will be patient."
The number of the right-leader and the right-back army is quite large, more than 20,000 people. It takes some time to come in from outside the city. Besides, the task of the right-leader is not only to rush here, they also Leave one as a backup to defend the Tai Chi Palace Imperial City. As for the first task of the Right Guard Army, the mission was to attack the Daming Palace. Only when these tasks began to be carried out, the two armies would come to reunite, otherwise they would not arrange for Tong Lihui to bring someone over to protect the prince.
It didn't take long before Zhang Huaishen and Xue Qilian came to Shengyefang with the leading soldiers in tandem. They did not visit Li Heng, but sent someone to pass the news. All they have to do is to quickly make the final preparations for attacking Xingqing Palace.
Although Xingqing Palace is separated from Shengyefang by the same street, it is still difficult to capture Xingqing Palace in one fell swoop. After all, there is news that there are about 5,000 soldiers in Xingqing Palace, but In any case, they are the offensive, and when they are not ready, they still dare not be too aggressive.
On the Daming Palace side, the First Guard from the Right Guard rushed to support it, and the battle started under Danfeng Gate. All of a sudden, people shouted and killed. The people living in the nearest Guangzhaifang and Yishanfang were scared. It's dying, I didn't even dare to make a sound, or even light the light.
The right guard attacked Danfeng Gate, Zuo Xiaowei attacked Jianfu Gate, and You Wuwei saw the tower on the tower. In this way, the two sides continued to wear out their own vitality. According to the current attack of this intensity, it would not pass half an hour. , One of the custody parties could not stand and was defeated, and this sign was more manifested in Habayashi, and there was no way. They have no reinforcements now, and the opponent’s number is twice as many as theirs. Unless reinforcements follow, otherwise They can't hold on for long.
In the Jiaotai Hall of Xingqing Palace, Li Longji had received the news from Xie Xiu, which made him almost unable to stand firm, and was so angry that he drew his long sword and slashed at the imperial case. Wang Yanzhang ran away. This was something Li Longji had never expected. Wang Yanzhang looked honest and honest and never procrastinated in doing things. He didn't expect that the problem would lie with him at such a critical time.
This news not only made Li Longji angry, but even Yuan Jaw and Gao Lishi were equally astonished and indignant. Without Wang Yanzhang, the Zuolong military army, it was impossible for Habayashi to hold on until the reinforcements arrived. By now, the big guys also know which troops are participating. No matter how you look at it, it is impossible for Yu Linwei to guard the Daming Palace.
Yuan Ja had no choice but to suggest: "Your Majesty, should you arrange a part of the internal guards to support the Daming Palace?"
Li Longji didn’t say a word. He was very upset now, but Gao Lishi said to Yuan Ja: “Lord Yuan, it’s not the case. Nowadays, the rebels are very powerful. It is the urgent task to defend the Xingqing Palace. There are not many guards in the wing. Going all the way is probably not enough to make up for the lack of troops."
Of course, Yuan Jai also knew what Gao Lishi said that the entire wing was less than a thousand people. If all of them were to pass, at most they would help Habayashi to hold on for two quarters of an hour. At this time, the reinforcements may not be able to reach the Chongxuanmen to explain Daming. Palace in danger. If you don't do this, if Daming Palace is lost, Xingqing Palace can hardly be kept.
There are as many as forty thousand rebels. This way, they occupy Chang'an and confront the rest of the imperial army. It is completely possible to hold on for a few days. Regardless of the 5,000 defenders in Xingqing Palace, I feel like I can hold on for a while, but here It is too small, and the Tai Chi Palace has been lost. Where there are so many siege equipment, if the rebels attack with all their strength, it will not take long before they will be captured.
Yuan Jai finally courageously proposed to Li Longji again: "Your Majesty, the Tonghua Gate and Chunming Gate have not been captured by the enemy yet, or else..."
Speaking of this, Yuan Jai was too embarrassed to continue speaking, let the emperor run off the road, just a little bit, if you really say it, I am afraid that it will be troublesome. Li Longji naturally understood. He held a long sword and pointed at Yuan Jaw in anger and said, "Even if I die, I will never run away. If you dare to make any suggestions, I will cut you off."
