"General Gar, Li Duozuo is here to help, please make way." Not far away, Li Duozuo, with a stern look on his face, shouted loudly to Gar Gongren.
When this voice came, it was a calm moment before the next wave of fierce fighting between the two sides, so the soldiers on both sides heard it very clearly.
It's just that the performances of the two sides are somewhat different. The soldiers under Gal Qinling's command are all in high spirits, because they finally received strong reinforcements after suffering huge losses, which means that they will most likely not die.
Although the commander-in-chief Gal Gongren did not tell them the main purpose of this battle, they knew clearly that this was a life-and-death war. As long as they won the war, they could save their lives, but if they failed, they wanted to
It’s just too hard to survive.
It is precisely because of this that after they met Li Duozuo's reinforcements, their morale was immediately boosted, and at the same time they began to mock the soldiers under Wang Fangyi's command.
"Haha, thieves, are you no longer so arrogant now?"
"Haha, you are right. Although your weapons are powerful, they are almost useless. Besides, how many people do you have? Can you deal with us and General Li's men at the same time?"
"Hey, this is the fate of rebellious ministers and traitors. Kneel down and surrender now. I might not be happy, but I might even spare your life and reduce you to slaves."
…
Words of ridicule rang out among the Tubo army. Such words made all the officers and soldiers of Wang Fangyi's Shenji Battalion change their expressions. Their colleagues were also furious and said to Wang Fangyi and Chen Zi'ang: "Marshal Wang, Deputy Marshal Chen, give the order,
Even if we don’t have firearms, we can still kill people!”
"That's right, Commander-in-Chief, Deputy Commander-in-Chief, this time let the thieves see the sharpness of the steel knives in our hands!"
"Exactly, I would rather die than fight to the death with the thieves!"
…
The soldiers all had eyes wide open and clenched their fists. They were passionate and vowed to fight to the death.
At this time, Chen Ziang also said loudly: "Commander, now we have reached a critical moment of life and death, and now that the morale of the army is available, why should we fight for your majesty and the country? Commander, give the order, and the general will be the first to lead the army to kill!"
But Wang Fangyi smiled faintly and said: "Shuai Chen, don't worry. His Majesty has already planned all this. Just don't worry. Even if we stay here and do nothing, the Tubo thieves will collapse on their own."
"Ah? What? How is this possible?" Chen Ziang couldn't help but be shocked after hearing what Wang Fangyi said, because he simply couldn't believe it was true, even though it contained Li Xian's guarantee.
I saw Wang Fangyi smiling, but he was very moved in his heart. He naturally knew the whole story, because Li Xian had already told him the details in detail. Li Xian didn't even tell his most trusted disciple about this matter.
I just told him, which shows my trust in him.
"Haha, sister, your grievances will be clarified. Although the murderer may not be executed in the end, I believe you will be happy under Jiuquan. After all, your reputation will be restored, and His Majesty will also
I agreed that as long as my reputation is restored, I will honor your status as queen and let you be buried in the Qianling Mausoleum with the late emperor. I believe that both our family and you, who are under the Nine Springs, will definitely hope to give you justice, right?
"
Wang Fangyi's eyes almost shed tears, and then he forcibly held back the tears in his eyes. Then he patted Chen Ziang's shoulder and said with a mysterious smile: "Brother Ziang, just wait and see, which time will His Majesty do this?"
Something you’re not sure about?”
Before Wang Fangyi finished speaking, Chen Ziang heard Gar Gongren shouting from the opposite side: "General Li, what are you doing?"
But Li Duozuo's heroic voice came over: "It is your Majesty's decree that the thief Gal Gongren gathered a crowd to conspire and committed a heinous crime. I was ordered to capture the thief. Your Majesty said that this time only the culprit will be captured."
Don’t ask, there is no need for you Tubo soldiers to die innocently for the traitors, just step aside obediently.”
"Wha, what? General Gar is plotting rebellion? How is this possible?"
"Yes, General Gar is protecting the Queen Mother."
"Haha, it's not like you don't know that the Queen Mother and Your Majesty have never dealt with each other. What I don't understand the most right now is why General Li actually obeyed His Majesty's orders. Could it be that he was surrendered by Your Majesty?"
But at this moment, some people obediently stepped aside. Although they were Tubo people, Tubo had already perished. For them, the most important thing at the moment was to save their lives, so whether they were Tang people or Tubo people,
People are no longer important to them. They simply do not believe that Gal Gongren can successfully restore the country. Even if the restoration of the country is true, it will be of little benefit to them.
Therefore, these people are very realistic. They know that facing opponents twice or even three times their size, the possibility of saving their lives is very, very low. For now, surrender is the most correct choice.
It can be said that those who chose to surrender accounted for the majority of the Tubo army, but there were also some soldiers who were loyal to Gar Gongren. They had long been brainwashed by Gar Gongren, and they were as fervent as religious beliefs about the restoration of Tibet.
Now that he saw that his own side was in danger, he immediately protected Gar Gongren, and then said loudly: "Commander, we have resisted the traitors, you take the brothers and leave first."
While shouting, these people took out their weapons and engaged in a life-or-death struggle with Li Duozuo's or Wang Fangyi's army that was gradually attacking them.
Gal Gongren saw that Li Duozuo had already led his army to kill him, and knew that the current situation was irreversible. If he did not take the opportunity to break out, I am afraid that not only the king's hegemony would be reduced to water, but his life would eventually be lost here.
"Let's go!" Gal Gongren led his elite troops and retreated desperately to Empress Wu's palace. At this time, he already knew that Empress Wu's power in the palace was very weak and was not enough to stop Wang Fangyi and Li Duozuo's rebels.
, if he wanted to save the situation now, he would have to invite the Sixth Army of the East Palace controlled by Prime Minister Li Dan, or some of the troops controlled by Princess Taiping. Therefore, he did not hesitate at all and just sent a few confidants to report to Empress Wu, without taking into account the people in the palace.
Empress Wu instead took a direct detour to the east gate, reported to Li Dan, and asked Li Dan to send troops to exterminate the rebels.
At the same time, he sent several soldiers to report to Princess Taiping.
As soon as Gal Gongren walked out of the east gate, he met the men and horses led by Li Dan. He was overjoyed and hurriedly stepped forward and saluted Li Dan: "See you, Your Majesty. I am here to report to Your Majesty that something serious has gone wrong.
The rebel Wang Fangyi and Li Duozuo led their troops to besiege the south gate guarded by Wei Chen. The situation is very critical. I implore the king to lead his troops to put down the rebellion!" (To be continued.)
