It has been rainy in Guanzhong this year. After the continuous heavy rain in the first two days, it changed to continuous rain. This humid and cold weather is a great torture for people with weak bodies and depleted roots. Changsun Wuji relied on his perseverance to go into battle and supervise the battle for a day.
, it was really difficult to persist, so we had to return to Yanshoufang to take command from the center.
At this time, the entire East Palace on the front line of Chengtian Gate has been captured. The six troops in the East Palace have all retreated into the Taiji Palace, and they are fighting every step of the way. Every palace and every courtyard is fighting bloody battles. However, after losing the advantage of city defense, the Guanlong army relied on its superiority in military strength to surge forward.
Generally, it is constantly impacting the entire Tai Chi Palace, the advantage is expanding step by step, and victory is already in sight.
Changsun Wuji was finally able to take a break...
After brewing a pot of hot tea, Changsun Wuji and Yu Wenshi sat on either side of the desk in front of the window, and said with concern: "You can't stand this body, you have to rest when it's time. Now in the whole Guanlong, everyone
His mind is unpredictable. It’s okay if the battle goes well, but if it goes wrong, there will be many dangers. One of us must be able to withstand it, but we can’t fall together.”
In the past, he was most afraid of Yuwen Shiji within the Guanlong Xungui family, because only the Yuwen family could surpass the Changsun family and become the new leader of Guanlong.
But now the "Woye Town private soldiers" have suffered heavy losses outside the city, and the remaining troops have been transferred into the city to charge on the front line of the Taiji Palace. This has caused immeasurable damage to the foundation of the Yuwen family. Today's Yuwen family
We can only rely on the Changsun family and do our best to promote the success of this mutiny. Otherwise, once the Changsun family falls, the Yuwen family will never rise again.
In short, the two of them are now grasshoppers on the same rope, sharing weal and woe, and both suffer losses...
Yu Wenshiji took a sip of tea, shook his head and said: "Don't worry, I know my body well. These years of pampering and pampering have depleted my roots, and I don't even realize it. Only when I'm consuming so much energy do I realize that I'm about to be depleted."
After taking a rest for a day, I have already improved a lot. If I want to return to my previous physical strength, I have to cultivate my body and mind for three to five years."
At this time, how dare he leave the whole battle to Changsun Wuji?
Everyone has selfish motives, and he seems to be on the same page with the Yuwen family at the moment, but if the time comes when sacrifice is necessary and he no longer wants to sacrifice himself, Changsun Wuji will probably throw away the last bit of the Yuwen family's wealth...
Changsun Wuji nodded and said: "As long as you know the number, I won't go on too much. The battle situation is going well now. It's just a matter of time to capture the Taiji Palace. It's no longer possible for the Six-rate East Palace to turn defeat into victory. The only thing that can be worried about is Zhang Shigui's tendency.
Anyway, if he is determined to carry out His Majesty's decree and block the Xuanwu Gate, the prince will be unable to fly, and we are done; if he falls to the prince's side, opens the Xuanwu Gate and lets the prince leave the city, then the prince can escape under the protection of Youtun Guards.
God, there will be a lot of trouble in the future."
Once the prince withdrew from Xuanwu Gate and retreated to Hexi under the protection of Youtun Guards, it would be impossible for the Guanlong army to take advantage of the victory and pursue them to achieve their full success. The Youtun Guards were so powerful that just thinking about it made him tremble.
"That's not necessarily the case. If the prince retreats to Hexi to command the world in the name of the crown prince and prepares to counterattack Chang'an, he can just contain Guanzhong. Li Ji also throws a trap and has to rely on us. Our losses may be minimized and we can gain some additional gains.
."
Yuwen Shiji's point of view is just the opposite. The most important thing now is not to overthrow the East Palace, but to use the overthrow of the East Palace to help the Guanlong clan to occupy a dominant position and gain an advantage in the subsequent negotiations with Li Ji. A prince in Hexi gave him How could Li Ji be willing to overthrow Guanlong, support the new king himself, and then fight with the prince to death?
The Guanlong family can be used as the "sword" in his hand. Instead of killing Guanlong, he will try his best to open up a few areas to help Guanlong regain his strength and fight against the prince and Youtunwei... …
Changsun Wuji thought for a while, nodded in approval, let out a long breath, and said with a wry smile: "I have always been arrogant and thought that the general situation of the world was under control. Instead, I raised my troops this time and faced many setbacks in the process. Realizing that not only was my body inadequate, but it was even more difficult to see God's will, I single-handedly pushed the Guanlong clan to the brink of life and death, losing everything at every turn and overturning. Fang Jun's fire outside the Jinguang Gate almost burned my life. ...But fortunately, the clouds have finally cleared and the moon has brightened, and we have regained control of the situation. As long as we fight steadily, victory is within easy reach. It’s time to plan how to negotiate with Li Ji.”
Yu Wenshi was convinced.
The grain stored outside the Jinguang Gate was burned down by Fang Jun, a divine general. This directly caused the Guanlong clan to completely abandon the private armies of clan clans from all over the country who had entered Guanzhong. Even their own army fell into a food shortage, and everyone was wailing. , morale is reaching its lowest point.
At that time, even the most optimistic Guan Longxungui could not imagine how an army lacking food could win the final victory...
However, after going around and around, the situation suddenly became clear, especially Changsun Wuji's magical move of deploying the "Woye Town Private Soldiers" into the city, which directly captured the impregnable Taiji Palace defense line, completely reversing the situation of the battle, and victory seemed to be within easy reach.
After passing this hurdle, Guan Long's confidence doubled, and he began to think about how to negotiate with Li Ji, trying to preserve his own strength amidst the oppression of hundreds of thousands of troops under his command...
However, after the two Guanlong bosses imagined the step-by-step process, not only to turn defeat into victory in a desperate situation, but also to preserve as much strength as possible in the negotiation with Li Ji, and even to seize benefits, the door was " Pushing open with a bang, Yu Wenjie rushed into the hall in two steps, his pale face full of panic and disbelief.
The two bosses turned their heads to look at each other at the same time. Yu Wenshiji frowned and was about to yell something like "Be calm when encountering big things", but Changsun Wuji couldn't say more and picked up the tea cup to drink tea.
Then I heard that Yu Wenjie had already taken the lead and said: "The news has just been sent. Fang Jun has used the main force of the Youtun Guards to attack with armored cavalry. The heavy infantry then covered them up. The camp outside Kaiyuanmen has been captured. The Youtun Guards are charging directly outside the Jinguang Gate, Hou Mo and Chen Lin are organizing the troops to form a formation, and the two sides have already engaged!"
"puff!"
The sip of tea that Changsun Wuji had just taken into his mouth spat out, causing him to cough repeatedly and his face turned red. He finally managed to catch his breath and looked extremely ugly.
Yuwen Shi opened his mouth for a moment, but finally swallowed the words that reached his lips.
Changsun Wuji seemed very proud of the step of letting the "Woye Town private soldiers" enter the city, and the effect was indeed very good. However, at this moment, Fang Jun actually caught the "Woye Town private soldiers" and the Jinguangmen camp's combat power was empty after entering the city. Raising troops to attack would be very troublesome.
Once Hou Mo and Chen Lin are unable to stop the Youtun Guard's surprise attack, Jinguang Gate will be completely exposed to the Youtun Guard's attack.
And once the Golden Light Gate falls...
After all, the two bosses have gone through countless ups and downs. Even when faced with such drastic changes, they only panicked for a moment and soon calmed down.
Changsun Wuji calmed down and said in a deep voice: "Keep an eye on the battle at Jinguangmen, and investigate again and report again!"
The war in Taiji Palace is currently in full swing, and the Guanlong army relied on its superior strength to suppress Donggong Liuli. If troops are rushed to Jinguangmen for reinforcements at this time, the war in Taiji Palace will turn around. This is absolutely unacceptable.
of.
Moreover, although Hou Mo and Chen Lin are still relatively young, he can be regarded as a rising star in the Guanlong clan. He has always been calm and capable. He can control the tens of thousands of Guanlong troops outside the Jinguang Gate. Even if they cannot defeat the invading powerful enemy, they can still hold on to the camp.
?
To take a step back, even if the army outside the city is overwhelmed by armored cavalry, there is still a Golden Gate. Dou Dewei is also considered a leader among the younger generation of Guanlong. How can he hold the Golden Gate for a day or two?
After all, siege is no better than a field battle. Without huge casualties and long-term consumption, it is difficult to conquer it in one go...
Yu Wenjie nodded and said, "I'll leave my humble job right now."
He turned around and went out. The two people in the hall were silent for a while. Yu Wenshiji was thinking about how to speak. After all, it was Changsun Wuji's idea to mobilize the "Woye Town Private Soldiers" into the city. It was originally a desperate move, hoping that this defensive loophole would not disappear.
After Fang Jun found out, unexpectedly, things would not go as planned. The more you feared, the more likely it would happen. If he spoke inappropriately, he might cause embarrassment and dissatisfaction to Changsun Wuji...
Changsun Wuji didn't know what to say. He had indeed fulfilled his strategic intention by recruiting the "Woye Town Private Soldiers" into the city. The Chengtianmen defense line was knocked down with one blow, and victory was in sight. It was clear that Chang'an City was besieged on all sides, and the news would never reach Fang Jun.
Going over there, the loopholes left by the defense outside the city might not be caught, but it just happened.
This was a stroke of genius that sealed the victory, but in the blink of an eye, it might have been a foolish move to dig up Guanlong's grave... How could this make Changsun Wuji feel so embarrassed?
There was silence for a long time, and just when Yu Wenshiji opened his mouth to speak, there were footsteps outside the door again. Yu Wenjie almost rushed into the hall, with a face full of panic: "The army outside the city has been defeated. They fled in all directions and were defeated.
The Youtun Guards are attacking Jinguangmen!"
"Bang Dang" Yu Wenshiji accidentally knocked over the tea cup and said in a voiceless voice: "How is that possible?"
