Chapter 42: Don’t think so beautiful

As the saying goes, there must be brave men under heavy rewards. As Li Yuanji rewarded the soldiers with the founding baron, the morale of the soldiers under his command was greatly boosted.

If Li Yuanji had promised all the soldiers, Dukes and Dukes Wanda, they would not believe that for soldiers without background, being able to enjoy the barons of the fifth-rank founding county was already the greatest gift they could get.

"Swish swish swish swish..."

The dead soldiers under Li Yuanji, who were inspiring morale, had a tremolo of metal bows and crossbows in their hands, and the sound of arrows that made people's hair stand up and broke through the air, and a thundering sound made people's hearts tremble.

A terrifying sea of ​​blood rose from the formation of the left prison guards under Li Anyan's command. Many soldiers were shot and flew everywhere, even turning into blood gourds. Under this blow, the formation of the left prison guards, which was originally at an absolute disadvantage, inevitably became in chaos.

The wailings were everywhere and screaming, and it was quite unstable. Originally, if Chen Ying had not improved the Tang Dynasty's crossbow, the Shansang Bow and Tuomu Heavy Crossbow of the Tang Dynasty would have been beneficial to the Tang Dynasty, but they could not cause fatal damage to the Mingguang Armor. However, in order to investigate the killing effect, Chen Ying's standard arrowheads of the Tang Dynasty had completely turned into triangular arrows. Triangular arrows penetrated the wounds and were difficult to heal, and the close-range armor-breaking ability was extremely high. In addition to the Mingguang Armor Heart Protection Mirror, they were really weak, like the joints between armor blades, they could enter in as little as the joints between armor blades.

But the left supervisor guards are just close-range troops. The heavy armor they equipped can serve as shields at any time, but the crossbows in their hands are too far from ordinary Tang army troops. At this time, the left supervisor guards can only passively be beaten and resist without any strength. If you can't bite a hair after a long time, you can't kill or injured someone with a volley. How can you fight this battle?

More than a thousand soldiers from the Left Supervision Gate were beaten up and turned into blood. In just one round, more than 300 soldiers were hung on the spot, and at least more than a hundred heads were cut off by soldiers under Li Yuanji and swung them on the tip of the gun!

Anyan Li is also a powerful general with the inappropriate courage of thousands of men. But now this powerful general is not strong at all.

Leyanzong, a left-level guard guard with a bloody face, knelt down in front of Li Anyan with a loud bang and shouted: "General Li, this battle cannot be fought! The rebels have a large number of strong bows and crossbows. Every time our army kills one of them, one or two will be killed or injured! You can't continue to fight anymore, retreat, protect the Supreme Emperor and retreat!"

Li Anyan had clenched his teeth and his face was as cold as ice. He could see clearly just now that the soldiers had tried their best, but there was no way. As Li Jiancheng's army leader, Li Anyan knew very well the importance of Li Yuan. Once Li Yuan fell into Li Yuan's hands, the Tang Dynasty would change. What's more, retreating would not work at all. Once Li Yuanji ordered Li Yuan to be shot and killed, Li Yuan was injured or died, and even if Li Jiancheng jumped into the Yellow River, he would not be able to wash it.

Li Anyan looked at Li Yuanji, his eyes were about to spit out of fire, and he said angrily: "Attack, continue to attack!"

Leyanzong was stunned and almost cried, saying, "General Li, calm down! How can you fight like this when fighting in war... Avoid the enemy's edge and attack their weak brigades, and how can you form a dignified formation and fight head-on..."

Li Anyan suddenly slashed down with a knife, and Leyanzong's voice stopped abruptly. His big head flew out with a blade, bringing a bloody rain.

Everyone was shocked.

Li Anyan shouted sternly: "Turn your mind and think about it seriously! Who is behind us? The Supreme Emperor, we can retreat, but our family will soon face a catastrophe!"

The soldiers looked sad and angry, and who doesn't understand the principle of success and defeat of the enemy? Now, Li Jiancheng is the emperor. They all enjoy the treatment of a superior Tang army from Long Yuanxun. However, once Li Yuanji wins, they will become traitors. Not only will they die, but their families will also be imprisoned. The mild ones are free from thousands of miles, and the severe ones are beheaded.

Ang Lee pointed to the military formation pointing to Li Yuanji's side. Li Yuanji's men were immediately energetic, and there were constant death soldiers attacking the left supervisor's battle formation.

In an instant, the imperial soldiers guarding Ganlu Hall were killed and injured, and the battle formation of the left supervisor guard had retreated to the steps of Ganlu Hall.

The soldiers under Li Yuanji shouted proudly.

An Yan roared out loud: "This is our last chance! Your Majesty's reinforcements will arrive soon. If you don't want to fight, you can leave immediately. I want to stay here and fight them to the end!"

After saying that, Li Anyan raised his horse spear and rushed towards Li Yuanji with a group of personal soldiers. The soldiers of the left prison guards' eyes were red, and they were entangled for a moment, and they rushed up screaming.

Seeing Ang Lee rushing over like a moth throwing into a fire, a relaxed smile appeared on Li Yuanji's face.

He picked up his horse spear and rushed towards Li Anyan. While charging, he shouted: "Li Anyan gave it to me, and everyone else will be free from life and death!"

More than 2,000 shooting soldiers holding steel crossbows were lined up in three rows. The first row aimed at the left guard guards who were rolling in, and they all pulled their movements, and a metal tremolo sound was rushing forward at high speed. The left guards were rolling to the ground as if they were fired by Maxim's heavy machine gun.

After shooting this arrow, the first row of shooters handed the crossbow that had been shot to the shooters behind, took the crossbow with the good crossbow arrows handed over from behind, and shot again. A large area of ​​shooters fell down again. The sound of sharp arrows breaking through the air, and the wailing sound of the arrows dying from the arrows came one after another, making people shudder.

Li Yuanji enjoys this sound very much.

As Li Anyan got closer, the smile on Li Yuanji's face became stronger and stronger.

Li Yuanji is very confident about his martial arts.

"Clang!"

The sharp horse spear took action. With one move, Li Yuanji came first and stabbed Li Anyan's spear blade. The two horse spears slowly turned into a full moon. Li Yuanji's wrist shook, and the horse spear in Li Anyan's hand seemed to be stirring with no invisible big hands. He brushed it and swept it to his own cheap price.

Fortunately, this is just a spear face, not a spear blade, otherwise Li Anyan's head would be gone in an instant.

However, after the striking force, Li Anyan's face suddenly lost consciousness. Li Anyan fell to the ground, opened his mouth, and spit out a large mouthful of blood.

Li Anyan planned to be very good. He hoped to capture the thief and capture the king first, and capture Li Yuanji, the thief leader, and turn the situation around with one force.

However, it is a pity that Ang Lee overestimated his skills and ignored Li Yuanji's martial arts. Although Li Yuanji's ability to lead troops was not very good, his whole body of kung fu was not full of moisture.

He knocked down Li Anyan with one move, and Li Yuanji rushed towards Li Anyan with a horse, pointed at Li Anyan and said, "Li Anyan, surrender, I will spare you!"

At this time, Li Anyan could no longer speak. He was seriously injured and vomited a mouthful of blood and spitted it at Li Yuanji. However, the blood just left his mouth and flowed into his chest.

Li Yuanji raised his horse spear and stabbed Li Anyan in the chest.

"Die for me!"

However, Li Yuanji tried hard again, but the horse spear in his hand remained stable.

Li Yuanji looked at it and found that a big black man appeared in front of him, grabbing his horse spear with both hands.

Li Yuanji yelled angrily: "Yuchi Jingde!"

At this time, the soldiers under Yuchi Gong pushed the door-stop chariot and slowly pressed the soldiers under Li Yuanji. Although the power of the crossbow is very strong, it is not omnipotent. If the heavy crossbow at this time is like the heavy machine guns of later generations, then the door-stop chariot is like an armored vehicle.

Dozens of door-stopping knives ignored the shooting of bows and arrows, and the blades on the shield cut the bodies of the rebels under Li Yuanji unscrupulously. Countless soldiers under Li Yuanji were stabbed into their bodies by the door-stopping knives, screaming and dying on the knife cart.

Li Yuanji hurriedly threw away the horse spear in his hand and shouted in horror: "Stop them."

Yuchi Jingde waved his long spear and chopped and knocked down Li Yuanji's follower. He took Li Xiaochang's sword away with one spear, and stepped forward and pulled Li Xiaochang off his horse.

Li Yuanji was about to transfer his horse to escape, and at this moment, thousands of imperial guards appeared on the palace walls. Some of the imperial guards held torches, and some held crossbows, illuminating the entire Ganlu Hall as if it were daytime.

Especially the imperial guards on the palace walls, the crossbows in their hands and powerful crossbows had already been opened, and the sharp arrowheads had already been embedded in the arrow groove, pointing straight at the bells under Li Yuanji outside the Ganlu Hall.

A cold and bloodthirsty aura swept across the palace, which made the whole army under Li Yuanji change their faces. The most terrifying thing was that when they heard the clanging sound of armor, the ground was slightly shaken, and hundreds of heavy infantry soldiers rushed out of the city gate like a group of tanks. Hundreds of giant axes were carried on their shoulders. With only the order of Yuchi Gong, they would immediately chop down without mercy, and they were killed and injured!

The powerful crossbow was surrounded by powerful soldiers, and the murderous aura soared into the sky. Faced with such a battle, Li Yuanji couldn't help but have his liver and gallbladders and almost urinated. Li Yuanji saw the body of Zheng Jun who was shot to death by Chen Ying's powerful crossbow in the battle of Luoyang, and found that most of them were shot in the vital part of the neck and chest, and the majority of them were shot in the chest. The sharp arrow holed the chest and penetrated the heart or lung lobes, and penetrated the spine. The Zheng Jun soldiers who were shot in the arrow often lost consciousness before they could fall to the ground.

Just as Li Yuanji was stunned, Xiao Nuoyan quietly approached Li Yuanji, and then pounced on Li Yuanji from the war horse. Before Li Yuanji could get up, Yuchi Gong picked up Li Yuanji with one hand, raised it up, and shouted loudly: "Li Yuanji has been captured alive. Don't you surrender quickly?"

The accompanying soldiers shouted: "Catch Li Yuanji alive, and those who surrender will not be killed!"

Thousands of rebels in chaos, after hesitating for a moment, threw away their weapons and knelt down and surrendered.

Li Jiancheng, Chen Ying, and Li Xiuning then led reinforcements to Ganlu Hall.

The battlefield outside the Ganlu Hall has ended.

Li Anyan, Yuchi Jingde, and Xiao Nuoyan were commanding their subordinates to take the rebels into a clearing.

Li Jiancheng saw Li Yuan sitting on the steps of Ganlu Hall in his pajamas.

Li Xiuning hurried forward, found a piece of clothing, and put it on Li Yuan.

The eunuchs brought the broth and meals.

Li Jiancheng personally arranged the dishes and chopsticks for his father.

Li Yuan said nothing, and was standing indifferently, watching Li Jiancheng busy.

Li Jiancheng stepped forward to support Li Yuan. Li Yuan waved his hand and sat down directly.

Li Jiancheng sat opposite Li Yuan with an awkward expression.

Li Yuan started eating without saying a word.

Li Jiancheng sighed and said, "Dad, do you never forgive me?"

Li Yuan asked coldly: "Do you need my father's forgiveness?"

Facing the new round of confrontation between father and son, Chen Ying quickly gave Li Xiuning a wink.

Li Xiuning struggled for a while, but in the end, as Chen Ying wanted, left the Ganlu Palace and gave the space to Li Yuan and Li Jiancheng.

Li Xiuning and Chen Ying had just left the Ganlu Palace. Li Yuanji, who was originally tied up, seemed to see a life-saving straw. He shouted to Chen Ying and Li Xiuning: "Three sister, third brother-in-law, help me, help me!"

Li Xiuning walked to Li Yuanji angrily, lifted her legs and kicked Li Yuanji on the head, causing Li Yuanji to wail.

Chen Ying ignored the fight between Li Yuanji and Li Xiuning. After all, there are some things that they need to solve by themselves.

Chen Ying didn't expect that this incident was led by Li Yuanji. It seems that there are quite a lot of people in the Li family who want to be emperor. The key is that is, is it really that good to be emperor?

The Tang Dynasty was not a later generation. The disciples and the Secretariat all had the power to refute the emperor's imperial edicts. It was actually very difficult to be a good emperor. The opposition between the aristocratic families and the emperor and the huge conflict of interests did not have the possibility of reconciliation. The emperor had to fight with them well.

Thinking about this, Chen Ying felt a big headache.

At this moment, Wei Ting came hurriedly, and he walked to Chen Ying and bowed, "General Chen, Your Majesty..."

Chen Ying looked up at Wei Ting and said, "The Prince of Yi'an, Li Xiaochang, and the royal families he had contacted him recently, including his family, must be strictly controlled!"

Wei Ting said: "I will arrange this!"

Chen Ying looked at Wei Ting's back and said, "Your Majesty wants to be a benevolent king, Wei Yizhi, don't slander His Majesty."

Wei Ting was stunned for a moment and walked out of the hall.

...

The turmoil in Chang'an City is a bit far away for the people of Chang'an. After all, the people will not care about who is the emperor. They will only care about whether there will be more meat on their dining table, or one or two meters less.

In the early morning, Chang'an City was bustling with gates, and a large number of people shuttled in and out of the gate.

Chang'an City now has three major industrial areas, one is the Datang Military Arts Supervisor near Baqiao. However, most of the people working here are craftsmen and quite a state-owned enterprise of the Datang. The salary here is good and the income is stable.

Located in the direction of Anhuamen, it belongs to the gathering area of ​​private enterprises. The income here is not high and the ups and downs are very high. The key is to use the method of paying by piece. It is not a problem for those who are hardworking and capable to earn two or three taxes a month in Anhuamen, but lazy people cannot even make money.

As for the Qinglin in the southeast, most of them are Chen Ying's industries. Most of the people working here are not from Chang'an, but from Shuozhou, Lingzhou and Hebei. Their income is very high and their salaries are better. They are high-tech talents that major families are rushing to win over.

With the rise of three industrial zones, nearly two-thirds of the people in Chang'an City would choose to work. Under this circumstance, buses and carriages traveling between Qinglin also began to operate.

This kind of carriage is based on a four-wheel load-loading carriage. One carriage can be stuffed into thirty adults, and no one checks the overload. It takes three big money to go to Qinglin at a time and can reach Qinglin in more than half an hour at most.
