At that time, Taizong feigned an attack to the east and turned to the southwest. Fortunately, General Pei Yun responded and he was able to break out. However, the rebels pursued him for hundreds of miles. Taizong was almost surrounded several times. Fortunately, he was protected by all the generals and martyrs and was able to escape.
.
——"Yong Shi·The Chronicles of Taizong"
Just before King Yong broke out, Pei Yun, the commander of the northern camp of the Forbidden Army, encountered an unprecedented crisis. Surrounded by his brothers, he could only face the enemy alone.
With a slight sigh, Pei Yun tore off a piece of his shirt and wrapped it around the injury on his shoulder. Opposite him, a young man with a jade-like face and a jade tree facing the wind - Xiahou Yuanfeng, was standing next to him with a smile.
, are four female swordsmen in snow clothes, one of them has bright red blood on her sword edge.
Outside the six people, Xiahou Yuanfeng's group of forbidden troops surrounded the six people, and further outside were the forbidden troops loyal to Pei Yun. The two sides were confronting each other at the moment. Xiahou Yuanfeng did not dare to push Pei Yun too hard, otherwise the forbidden troops outside would be very big.
In anger, their flesh and bones might be turned into mud, and Pei Yun did not dare to let his subordinates attack, otherwise he might be killed before he could break through the siege.
Xiahou Yuanfeng smiled and said: "Why is General Pei so stubborn? You were originally under the command of King Qi, and His Highness King Qi was also the servant of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. How could the small favors King Yong showed you be like the great love shown by His Highness King Qi back then? If the general had stopped at the cliff,
, I promise that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Highness King Qi will never embarrass the general."
Pei Yun sneered and said: "This general is the general of Dayong and is not subject to random orders. I don't believe that the emperor will issue an edict to execute King Yong, so you, Xiahou Yuanfeng, don't waste your words. Who doesn't know that you and Fengyimen are both here?"
It's the prince's party, and the prince wants to conspire to cause rebellion, probably because he has a bad reputation and is worried that the emperor will depose him."
Suddenly the swords of the two female swordsmen were like lightning, crossing each other. Pei Yun flashed and grabbed the blade. The other two female swordsmen activated it at the right time. The saber in Pei Yun's hand turned into a copper wall. Five people fell, and four women fell.
The swordsmen still surrounded Pei Yun. Xiahou Yuanfeng pounced again. The dazzling sword light was extremely beautiful. The four female swordsmen also activated again. Pei Yun's martial arts was already on par with Xiahou Yuanfeng's. For a moment,
Somewhat overwhelmed, at this time, the imperial guards outside shouted in unison, Xiahou Yuanfeng smiled bitterly, and had to slow down the offensive. Pei Yun could barely hold on this time.
At this moment, a cyan figure passed through the siege in an instant. Xiahou Yuanfeng felt as if his vest was being stared at by an eagle and wolf. He quickly stepped back, but was still hit by the palm wind on his back. He was unable to fight back for a moment, and the cyan figure had already
Breaking into the center of the sword formation of the female swordsmen of Fengyi Sect, Pei Yun felt a gentle palm wind sending him out of the sword formation. At this time, the four female swordsmen shouted softly at the same time, and the sword light was like snow, unscrupulous
He rushed towards the man in Tsing Yi. His figure flashed, and with his bare hands he suppressed the fierce and beautiful attacks of the four female swordsmen. After less than ten moves, the figure of the man in Tsing Yi flashed in a dizzying manner.
Then there were four screams. The four female swordsmen were all hit by the men in green and fell to the ground dead. However, their crazy attacks also left traces on the man in green. His green shirt was already
The hem is broken.
Xiao Shunzi frowned and looked at the female swordsmen lying on the ground. These swordsmen were crazy and ruthless. If several of them joined forces, their power would be even greater than that of Li Hanyou and others. It seems that this is Fengyi Sect's trump card.
, his eyes fell on Xiahou Yuanfeng, and his murderous intent condensed.
Xiahou Yuanfeng felt a chill in his heart. At this time, he had recovered his internal strength and quickly said: Let's rush out.
Just as Xiao Shunzi raised his palm, Pei Yun had already shouted: "Master Li, now is not the time, it is more important to rescue His Highness."
Xiao Shunzi frowned and said nothing, and Pei Yun did not stop him. The imperial army and the imperial guards controlled by Xiahou Yuanfeng were all elite soldiers. There was no need to take action here. If he was entangled, it would be too late to rescue Li Zhi. Pei
Yun Ke knew very well that if it hadn't been for King Yong over there, Xiahou Yuanfeng would not have taken action against him. What's more, if Xiao Shunzi came here not to ask for help, what else could be the reason.
Xiao Shunzi hurriedly said to Pei Yun: "Wei Ying is a member of the prince's party. He falsely preached the edict. Your Highness wants to break out of the encirclement. I need you to support him."
Pei Yun immediately gave the order to set off. He knew the terrain of the hunting palace very well, and Xiao Shunzi led the way. Not long after, he saw the light of fire rising into the sky and heard the sound of killing. Pei Yun looked behind him and saw what was going on.
Before the attack, the new defense plan sent by Commander Huang of Dongying dispersed the 4,000 forbidden troops who were leaning toward him on the west side of the hunting palace, while the 1,000 forbidden troops from Xiahou Yuanfeng were concentrated together. Although Pei Yun was confused at the time, he also
He didn't expect such a change, so even though he issued the summons order, there were still only two thousand people who could follow him to protect King Yong. Can these few people protect King Yong from breaking through the encirclement, Pei Yun thought worriedly.
When Pei Yun and Xiao Shunzi rushed to the southwest corner gate, it was when King Yong was blocked by the Forbidden Army outside. The Forbidden Army in this direction was the direct line of General Qin, and the deputy commander of the Dongying Forbidden Army Sun Ding was under the jurisdiction of Sun Ding and Feng
There is no connection with Yimen, but just before he set up his defense, General Qin Qing's guards came with Qin Qing's military talisman and issued a strict order. No matter what happens tonight, no soldiers are allowed to go out in this direction. So although
They were doubtful about King Yong's shouting about the prince's rebellion, but King Yong had neither the emperor's order nor the order from General Qin or General Qin, so they absolutely did not dare to let King Yong pass. After the two sides argued, it became
An endless stalemate. King Yong only had more than a hundred followers, and no matter how powerful he was, it would be difficult to pass through the defense line set up by the imperial army. At the height of the fierce battle, behind King Yong, the pursuing figure of Wen Ziyan could already be seen.
Pei Yun didn't care about the enemy being outnumbered and he shouted: "Your Highness, the last general, Pei Yun, is here to protect you."
A look of relief flashed across King Yong's stern face. Without Pei Yun's imperial army, it would have been difficult to rush out of the palace. He said loudly: "Pei Yun, open a bloody path for me."
Pei Yun loudly accepted the order, and with a wave of his hand, many imperial troops rushed towards the palace gate with King Yong and his guards protected among them.
As soon as Wen Ziyan saw Pei Yun, she knew something was wrong. She flashed in the direction of King Yong. She was highly skilled in martial arts and had been to the battlefield many times back then, so she avoided the obstruction of the Forbidden Army and quickly approached King Yong.
King, at this time, a green shadow rushed towards him from the sky. Wen Ziyan thrust out his sword. The green shadow grabbed it with his bare hands like a sword. Wen Ziyan was furious. This man looked down upon himself too much. He was so focused on it.
On the sword, she heard a crisp sound at this time, and her sword that could cut gold and jade was actually broken from it. Wen Ziyan was stunned, and the man had already slapped her chest with a palm. After all, Wen Ziyan was Xinru.
Tie Shi had already been stabbed with a short sword. This sword move was a move that hurt both sides. As expected, the man hesitated for a moment, and the two started fighting in the chaos. At this time, Wen Ziyan could see the man's face clearly.
The person was none other than "Evil Shadow" Li Shun. Wen Ziyan was shocked. If she killed this person, then there would be no masters around King Yong who could rely on, so she calmed down and fought Li Shun with all her strength. At this time,
A female swordsman in white threw a long sword, Wen Ziyan took it smoothly, and then the Fengyi Sect's world-famous Swift Wind Swordsmanship finally unfolded. The fast sword that exceeded the limits of the human body covered up the sky-high flames and the fighting parties.
There was blood on the sword, but Li Shun's figure was very strange, looming in the sword light. On normal days, some people would be amazed and impressed by this fight, but at this moment, neither side had time to pay attention.
At this time, under the charge of Jing Chi, Sima Xiong and Pei Yun, the forbidden troops outside the Hunting Palace could no longer hold back. Although Commander Yang was also a fierce general, facing Dayong, in terms of bravery and strategy, he was ranked first
The three top 30 generals finally showed their flaws, and the battle formation revealed a weak point. King Yong and others were all experienced generals in the battlefield. They saw through it at a glance. Jing Chi shouted loudly, Ma Shan
Sweeping across, beheading the Forbidden Army general who was blocking the way, the Forbidden Army was even more weakened. King Yong took the opportunity to order a fierce charge, and more than a thousand cavalry rushed out of the hunting palace and disappeared in the vast night. In this short time,
In just a few minutes of burning incense, nearly half of Pei Yun's warriors fell within the walls of the hunting palace. At this time, several Fengyi Sect disciples had already forced over, and Wen Ziyan was determined to keep Li Shun behind.
.
Xiao Shunzi's mind was as clear as a mirror. Although his martial arts were strong, he might not be worth the loss under the fierce attack of these swordsmen. Moreover, the forbidden troops were gradually surrounding him. If he didn't leave, it would be too late. Thinking of this, his figure suddenly changed.
Strangely stuck in the air, several female swordsmen did not expect it, and the sword force could not help but reveal flaws. Xiao Shunzi had already rushed towards Wen Ziyan. Wen Ziyan calmed down and thrust out with one sword. This sword force
Like thunder, Xiao Shunzi raised his right hand, but there was a hairpin between his index fingers. When the sword edge scratched Xiao Shunzi's right rib, the hairpin also scratched Wen Ziyan's cheek.
, Wen Ziyan only felt a wisp of cold air coming towards her face, and subconsciously turned her head to the side, thus avoiding the disaster of being blinded. Xiao Shunzi had already taken the opportunity to cross her side and kicked a forbidden soldier off his horse.
, rode his horse to chase King Yong.
Wen Ziyan's eyes were full of anger and said: "Bite them to death, and I will kill King Yong even if I chase them for hundreds of miles." After saying that, he took the reins of the horses handed over by others and chased after King Yong and others.
Wei Ying frowned slightly as he stood at a high place. In this hunting palace, they could only fully control the Forbidden Army of five thousand people. The other Forbidden Army could only help them defend themselves. They could only control the Xiaoshuang Palace and hunt down King Yong.
The imperial army who could play with his trusted friends went forward, so the manpower was very tight. After thinking about it, he sent two thousand people to follow Wen Ziyan to hunt down King Yong. The remaining three thousand people should be enough to control Xiao
Shuangdian and the other Imperial Guards.
What a pity. Wei Ying looked at the billowing smoke and dust in the distance. He didn't know how King Yong discovered the trap and escaped from the hunting palace for him. If it hadn't been for something wrong with King Qi, Princess Qi might have stolen King Qi's treasure.
However, they could mobilize King Qi's army to change defenses. They wanted them to attack King Yong's army or besiege the hunting palace, but they refused to agree, claiming that they would not obey the order unless they saw King Qi's order. It seems that they still have to do so.
Put some effort into King Qi. Now that King Yong has escaped, if he is allowed to join the Guards, then without the support of King Qi's army, his side will be defeated. Wei Ying thought while frowning deeply
, I thought I had thought of everything before launching the palace coup, but I still didn’t expect that King Yong would see through the false edict so quickly. What was going on?
At dawn, the crisp sound of horse hooves came from the cold mist. That night, I heard that Zi Yan led the imperial army in pursuit. Even though King Yong was proficient in military strategy, there was nothing he could do. King Yong originally wanted to ignore the pursuers and march with all his strength,
However, King Yong's breakthrough this time was very hasty, and there were even cases where two people rode one horse. However, the pursuers first requisitioned horses from other forbidden troops. Each person brought an average of two horses, and they could change horses at any time. In this way, the speed was very low.
It was much faster than King Yong and others. In desperation, King Yong went round and round, mobilized his pursuers, and set up ambushes and sneak attacks along the way, hoping to annihilate the pursuers. However, the two people who led the pursuers, Huang Commander Huang Xia
He is a veteran on the battlefield, and Wen Ziyan is an assassin who has been on the battlefield for many years. One of them is cautious and proficient in the art of war, and the other is a strong martial artist. They are the most outstanding scouts. They did not let King Yong take advantage of anything along the way.
Cheap.
A clever woman can't make a fool of herself. Regardless of the strength or speed, King Yong has no advantage. The advantage in tactics is offset by the powerful force. King Yong has never been so embarrassed. Until an ambush at dawn, all the masters under King Yong join forces to attack
Only by setting up an ambush at a narrow valley entrance did the pursuers suffer greater losses. King Yong, who had been running around all night, could finally breathe a sigh of relief temporarily.
King Yong knew very well that these forbidden troops who were responsible for chasing him were definitely the strength that Fengyi Sect could use like an arm and a finger. Although they were not many in number, in comparison, his own troops were weaker, unless they could join his own guards.
, otherwise he will encounter the most dangerous situation in his life. The top priority now is to rendezvous with his army. King Yong still cannot believe that Qin Yong will help him. Now Fengyi Sect may have obtained the military talisman, and by then Qin Yong will probably
He would only obey Jiao's edicts, so joining the army led by Changsun Ji and Dong Zhi became King Yong's biggest goal.
At this time, a horse came galloping from a distance, and King Yong and others were all frightened. Although there was only one horse, if Wen Ziyan or the female swordsmen of Fengyi Sect were to serve as scouts, their whereabouts would be leaked immediately.
, if you can't take a rest, you will probably be exhausted if you continue like this. As the person approached, a guard with excellent eyesight said loudly: "Your Highness, this is Mr. Li Shun." Everyone felt relieved.
Xiao Shunzi was originally lagging behind, and his equestrian skills were not as good as those of King Yong, so he simply hid in the dark, changed into the armor of the Forbidden Army, and followed Wen Ziyan and others. Although there was only one horse,
However, he had been using light body skills to reduce the burden on the horse as much as possible, and then he caught up with the forbidden army led by Wen Ziyan. He originally wanted to take the opportunity to assassinate, but the forbidden army led by Wen Ziyan was also an elite soldier of Dayong, so it was so easy there.
Although they sneaked in several times while they were sitting on the horse to judge the whereabouts of King Yong and others or when they were giving the horses water, they had little effect. The last time, they were surrounded by Wen Ziyan and his men. Fortunately, Xiao Shunzi
He was very clever and had prepared an escape route in advance, so he was able to escape. Seeing that this would not have any effect, Xiao Shunzi devoted himself to catching up with King Yong. With his superb tracking skills and some luck, he was finally chased by him first.
After boarding King Yong, he saw King Yong's golden armor from a distance. Xiao Shunzi was overjoyed. He should be able to see the young master, but he was very worried that Jiang Zhe would be harmed in the chaos.
But the closer Xiao Shunzi got to King Yong and others, the more uneasy he felt, and his expression became colder and sterner. When he came to King Yong, he asked directly: "Why aren't you here, Master?"
If someone else asked this, King Yong would be angry even if he meant to explain. After all, the difference between monarch and ministers, and the distinction between superior and inferior cannot be ambiguous. But when Xiao Shunzi asked sternly like this, no one, including King Yong, became angry.
Who doesn't know that this man only has one master in his heart. He obeyed Jiang Zhe's order to pass the order to Pei Yun, so that everyone could successfully break out. At this moment, his body was covered with blood. Thinking of his usually spotless image, it was even more disturbing.
Angry at him, King Yong said calmly: "Suiyun stayed in the hunting palace."
When Xiao Shunzi heard this, his expression changed drastically, and murderous intent rose to the sky. A cold light suddenly appeared in his eyes, and he stared at King Yong fiercely. Everyone subconsciously protected King Yong. At this time, Jing Chi stepped forward and said: "Master Li,
It is Mr. Jiang's own decision." Xiao Shunzi glanced at him and his eyes became a little softer. After all, this Jing Chi has been in and out of Hanyuan all year round, and she has supervised him copying books many times, so he is quite familiar with it.
Seeing that his mood was gradually calming down, Li Zhi rode his horse forward and whispered something in a low voice. A strange color flashed in Xiao Shunzi's eyes, and then he bowed and saluted: "I have offended Your Highness, please forgive me."
Li Zhi smiled and said: "It's good if you can understand. I also feel that if I take Suiyun with me, I will probably escape death, but this way I have a little more chance of survival. If you are worried, you might as well rush back to the hunting palace. With your martial arts, you should be able to survive."
It can protect Suiyun Zhouquan.”
However, Xiao Shunzi looked solemn and said calmly: "No, I'm asking for orders to go see Qin Yong in person."
Li Zhi asked in shock: "Why is that? Aren't you worried about Suiyun's safety?"
Xiao Shunzi said coldly: "If something happens to my young master, my servants will kill all the enemies even if they are broken into pieces. But now the young master's life and death are unknown. If the young master's plan fails, he has fallen into the hands of the enemy now. I'm afraid he will die."
Wusheng, there is no use even if I rush there. If the young master is alive, then the servant alone cannot rescue the young master from the siege. In this case, I can only do my best to get the young master out of danger as soon as possible. Now His Highness is alone.
Therefore, the pursuers from behind will arrive within half an hour. His Highness's army and King Qi's army may not be able to come. The two sides are monitoring each other. No one can escape from the battlefield, so General Qin's army is His Highness's only chance of survival.
, but His Highness cannot command the Qin army. If the prince's side obtains the imperial edict of the military talisman, the Qin army will become the enemy of His Highness. But at this moment, only by letting the Qin army, His Highness, can win this battle, and in this way can my young master be rescued.
Only Li Shun can do this. My young master has made arrangements for Qin Yong. I am the only one who knows about this matter. Although the young master did not say anything, I know what he means."
Li Zhi looked excited and said: "I see, your master and servant are all men of unparalleled wisdom and courage, so I entrust you with my trust." After saying this, he handed a small bag of tips to Xiao Shunzi, who took it without looking at it.
, said lightly: "Your Highness, be careful. Even if the Qin army can come to help Your Highness, it will not come in a short time. Although His Highness is excellent in military strategy, but Wen Ziyan has strong soldiers and horses and strong martial arts, it must be extremely difficult for Your Highness, but as long as Your Highness
After delaying for two days, I promise that the Qin army can come to rescue His Highness. If I fail, there is nothing to say. I will just die with Your Highness."
Li Zhi said: "I have always known what you are capable of, so you just have to do your best. I am somewhat sure of the two-day appointment."
Xiao Shunzi gave a gentle salute, turned around and rode away. Li Zhi looked at his back and said loudly: "Let's rest for a while and continue on our way. If we can meet up with General Changsun, at least we will be safe. But we can't join up with the army."
, and you can’t have a head-on confrontation with Wen Ziyan.”
Everyone agreed in unison, and everyone took the time to rest. Li Zhi looked at the rising sun and said, "Suiyun, I am counting on you."
When King Yong broke through, the hunting palace was already in a state of alarm. Li Yuan was dining with the queen and concubines. He frowned and said, "Leng Chuan, what happened outside?"
Leng Chuan walked out of the palace door in response, and then saw the fire in the distance. He was shocked. A fire in the hunting palace was definitely unusual, not to mention the faint sound of fighting. He quickly returned to the palace and reported: "Your Majesty
, it seems that something happened. Your Majesty, would you like to summon General Qin?"
At this time, heavy footsteps came from outside, and someone said in a deep voice: "Qin Yi, Cheng Shu wants to see your Majesty."
Li Yuan said quickly: "Come in."
Following his shout, Qin Yi and Cheng Shu hurried in. Li Yuan asked: "Qin Qing, what happened?"
Qin Yi looked seriously and said: "Your Majesty, is Wei Ying here?"
Li Yuan was stunned for a moment and said: "I don't need him to draft orders tonight. I'll let him go down and rest."
Qin Yi's expression changed greatly and he said: "Wei Ying came here just now to convey the order, saying that the emperor summoned me and the Duke of Wei. However, as soon as I arrived here, I discovered that there was a disturbance in the West Palace."
Li Yuan said angrily: "What's going on? I didn't ask Wei Ying to deliver the edict. Qin Aiqing, you can see the edict."
Qin Yi smiled bitterly and said: "He said it was your Majesty's oral instruction, and the ministers asked about the hunting palace's defense."
Cheng Shu said anxiously: "Your Highness, I'm afraid someone is going to rebel. We should quickly summon the imperial army and guards to escort them."
Qin Yi's expression changed. Qin Qing should be responsible for guarding Xiaoshuang Palace today. Why didn't he see him when he came in? He didn't bother to ask Li Yuan for instructions, so he rushed out of the palace door and said loudly: "Qin Qing,
Qin Qing, get over here quickly."
However, Qin Yi found that except for the guarding Ouchi guards who responded to the call, the guards around him were silent and holding the hilts of their swords. Qin Qing was nowhere to be seen. Qin Yi's heart gradually sank. He had never
As much as I hate my appeasement today, how could I not have thought that this battalion of forbidden troops has been under the command of Qin Qing for a long time, so the Fengyi Sect may have intervened, this incompetent traitor.
Li Yuan had also walked out of the palace gate and said loudly: "Why don't you hurry up and summon General Qin Qing."
At this time, laughter like silver bells came from the distance, and a group of women came from a distance. The leader was Li Hanyou. Next to her was Princess Qi Qin Zheng and another pretty girl. All three of them were wearing moon-white outfits.
, wearing long swords. Behind them, thirty-six female swordsmen in snow clothes were divided into four columns. Their whole bodies were filled with cold murderous intent, and their steps were vigorous. Their actions echoed each other, and their murderous intent increased exponentially.
Li Hanyou walked to the bottom of the steps, and Fan Fan saluted: "Your Majesty, I have been ordered by the prince to attack the rebellious King Yong. Your Highness is worried about your safety, so I specially sent my concubine to protect your majesty."
Li Yuan's face was gloomy, and he said coldly: "Do you think you can do it?" Leng Chuan walked to his side, and Li Yuan said coldly: "It is impossible for you to control all the Forbidden Army. As long as I shout from the top, those Forbidden Army will be destroyed."
They will defect."
Li Hanyou sneered and said: "Your Majesty is right, the general is very strict in running the army. We really have no way to control the entire Forbidden Army. Even now, we can only control these five thousand Forbidden Army, and we have to send two thousand Forbidden Army to hunt down King Yong. However,
This is enough, as long as the emperor cannot leave Xiaoshuang Palace, then I can control the entire imperial army."
Li Yuan's expression changed drastically and he said, "You stole my gold medal."
Li Hanyou smiled and said: "Your Majesty is indeed wise. The only people who can completely control the Forbidden Army are General Qin himself and your Majesty's gold medal. Now that General Qin is here, your Majesty's gold medal is in our hands. Your Majesty, there is nothing you can do. When we will
The traitors will be caught in one fell swoop, and when the time comes, His Highness the Crown Prince will come to plead guilty to His Majesty."
Li Yuan's body was shaking a little, and he was so angry that he could hardly stand. He said coldly: "Who stole my gold medal."
At this time, the queen and three noble concubines walked out of the palace. The queen's face was as cold as frost, Concubine Ji smiled slightly, Concubine Changsun was trembling all over, and Concubine Yan was frightened. Li Yuan's eyes fell on Concubine Ji, it was impossible.
He has always been very guarded against Concubine Ji, so who is it? Concubine Changsun would never do such a thing. She has no reason to do this. Concubine Yan is gentle and cowardly, and she will not do this. So there is only one person, and his eyes fall.
