West of Chang'an City, Golden Light Gate.

This is where the Guanlong army hoarded heavy troops, not only to intimidate the Xuanwu Gate in the north of the city, but also to guard the city's government, Yanshou, Xishi and other lifangs. After all, the Guanlong family are all in charge of Yanshoufang to command the battle, making it a hub for front-line command. Once it is raided by the Eastern Palace army, it will suffer heavy losses and even completely subvert the situation.

Outside the Golden Light Gate, flags were waving, and the camp was tents were more than ten miles long. Tens of thousands of soldiers were stationed outside the city. Although there were all kinds of military weapons and military uniforms were chaotic, the military appearance was still high. At this moment, they were all in a row, and the murderous aura was fierce.

In the middle of the night yesterday, the Sixth Army of the East Palace, who was guarding the Taiji Palace, mobilized a large-scale defense exchange, and then recruited a Youtun Guard from Xuanwu Gate outside the city to enter the palace. At dawn, it launched a huge counterattack. The Guanlong army was caught off guard and was completely driven out of the Taiji Palace. However, Changsun Wuji made a quick decision and mobilized a large number of troops from outside the city to reinforce, and suppressed the Sixth Army of the East Palace.

A grand battle is in full swing in Tai Chi Palace. The two sides started war from dawn. It is approaching noon, and there are countless casualties.

The Guanlong army stationed around Chang'an City all received orders, requiring all troops to be on guard and wait for the decline to enter Chang'an City at any time to reinforce Tai Chi Palace.

The soldiers in Guanlong complained.

I dare not disobey the military order, but it is an indisputable fact that I am full of boredom with this war. For ordinary young and strong men, the purpose of joining the army is to reduce taxes and exempt the family. How many civilians are truly able to get meritorious? Therefore, the perfunctory mentality is extremely serious.

Moreover, as spring plowing is approaching, the war has not only continued, but has become increasingly fierce. Once the farming time is delayed, it will lead to the inability to cultivate and the land will be completely harvested. What if the tax is reduced or exempted? The whole family is afraid that they will die of freezing and starvation.

Especially as more and more soldiers were put into battle, it meant that the number of casualties continued to expand. The tenacity and toughness of the East Palace Liusu far exceeded the expectations of Guanlong. Countless people's lives were filled in the imperial city, and they captured the imperial city in an inch of land and blood. Now they have to fill in the Tai Chi Palace again.

For the glory of the head of the family, ordinary young men and women have to easily throw their lives into this magnificent and majestic city. Maybe they will even bear the reputation of "rebels". Who is willing to do so?

The unstoppable war-weariness grew rapidly in the hearts of the soldiers in Guanlong, causing the political army to be in a state of turmoil and morale degradation. It was based on this point that the Guanlong families had to risk the risk of turning against Changsun Wuji and forcibly promote peace talks, striving to end the war at the negotiating table.

...

There were bloody battles in Chang'an City and fierce battles continued. Outside the city, whether the Guanlong army or the Right Guards were all waiting to be on the verge of battle, ready to fight at any time.

Thirty miles outside the Golden Light Gate, a banner with a slightly higher terrain suddenly floated up on a hill with a slight height. Under the banner are more than a thousand elite cavalry, with iron hooves and majestic momentum. Looking from the Guanlong army formation outside the Golden Light Gate, I happened to see the afterglow of the sunset. This iron cavalry stood tall on the hill with its head held high. The glorious afterglow poured down, and all the soldiers were covered with a layer of golden light, and it was as majestic as heavenly soldiers.

Such an army that suddenly appeared suddenly made the Guanlong army noisy and inconsistency.

The generals of Guanlong hurriedly sent a school captain to appease the soldiers, and at the same time wanted to ask the scout to investigate and see the origin of the cavalry...

"Hey, look at the flag, isn't it a word 'room'?"

"Could it be that Fang Jun is back?"

The surname Fang is rare, and there are even more generals in the court. At a glance, the generals who saw him saw the flying flag on the hilltop, and the character "fang" that was a big fighter. The identity of the general in commanding the army was naturally about to emerge.

"No, right? I heard that Duke Zhao has sent all the cavalry in his family and went to Shangyu Ancient Road in two groups, vowing to kill Fang Jun in it. This guy can come back alive with all his strength?"

The general who knew the inside story was shocked.

It is said that Fang Jun only led 300 personal soldiers from Shangyu to Luoyang, intending to persuade British Duke Li Ji to surrender to the East Palace, and raided and killed Changsun Anye halfway, causing Duke Zhao to be deeply saddened and furious, and he sent thousands of Changsun family cavalry to intercept them.

Thousands and three hundred, and there are rugged and narrow areas like Shangyu Ancient Road...

How could he come back alive?

The generals were shocked and suspicious, but they did not dare to be careless. After all, Fang Jun was really "unprecedented" and many Guanlong children were killed by their swords. They quickly sent people into the city to Yanshoufang to report to Changsun Wuji, while gathering a cavalry unit of thousands of people and tentatively encircling the Qiuyuan.

...

On the hilltop, Fang Jun and Li Junxian stood side by side, looking at the endless military camp under the Golden Light Gate and the soldiers who were neatly lined up to be ready.

The latter smiled bitterly and said, "Why do you have to do this? Since you have returned to Chang'an, you will be able to enter the palace from Xuanwu Gate. Why have to come here in person and let the rebel soldiers see the true appearance of Duke Yue?"

This is clearly showing off one's power!

Changsun Wuji, didn’t you send two groups of people to intercept me? Look, the shrimp soldiers and crab generals of your Changsun family were beaten to death by me, throwing their armor and abandoning their armor. Then I still stood here with all my tails, and asked if you are angry...

It's just a child's temper.

Fang Jun's eyes passed by the rebel array, his face was solemn. He did not respond to Li Junxian's words and said in a deep voice: "The Sixth leader of the Eastern Palace intends to launch a large-scale counterattack to severely damage the rebels and pull Guan Long to the negotiating table... However, look at the Guan Long troops in front of him, and they are all ready to enter Chang'an City for reinforcements at any time. It can be seen that Changsun Wuji is well aware of the strategy of the Eastern Palace and has set a counterattack early. This counterattack is not only difficult to achieve results, but may even be attacked by the rebels in silence."

Li Junxian's face also became heavy. He was also a man of war, so he naturally understood what the Guanlong army in front of him meant.

He said worriedly: "Changsun Wuji is scheming and conceited. If he had prepared for it, the Eastern Palace would probably suffer a big loss this time."

When he left Chang'an and rushed to Shang on the ancient road, he was still full of heart waiting to celebrate his achievements when he came back. After all, if the Sixth Minister of the Eastern Palace unexpectedly counterattacked at a stalemate, it would probably lead to a major defeat by the rebels. However, just looking at the situation where the Guanlong army was prepared, we knew that victory was no longer possible.

Fang Jun sneered: "Although Changsun Wuji is very cunning, it is just a tough move in the government. If you really want to discuss the strategy of the uprising, which on the ground is he? The reason why he is so prepared is that he is just a slut in the East Palace."

Li Junxian was stunned: "Who does Duke Yue refer to?"

Fang Jun said: "Whoever proposes to mobilize the army to counterattack the rebels, causing the good situation to collapse and countless soldiers die meaninglessly in the battle formation, will be the insider's response!"

Li Junxian was stunned, then was startled and said: "Duke Yue cannot say anything nonsense! This counterattack was a strategy set by His Highness the Crown Prince, and Duke Wei also allowed it!"

The person who advocated this counterattack was Xiao Yu. No matter what Xiao Yu's original intention was, if it really caused the Sixth Ranger of the East Palace to suffer a severe blow, then Xiao Yu would be able to blame.

At this moment, if Fang Jun insisted that Xiao Yu had "unwillingness" or even "do it on purpose", the original intention was to push the East Palace Liuru to the edge of the rebels and suffer a heavy blow... With Fang Jun's current status and status, it would be a storm, and even Xiao Yu might not be able to withstand it.

Even if it can bear it, the civil servant system headed by Xiao Yu will suffer a huge blow, and its power will be further compressed, and even from now on, there will be no shortage of suggestions on the military.

This consequence is too serious, and it may lead to the collapse of the power structure of the Eastern Palace...

Fang Jun snorted coldly, held the hilt of the knife on his waist, and looked at the rebel cavalry lined up under the Qiuyuan, gradually approaching, and said: "The establishment of the Tang Dynasty is in line with the will of the people and the destiny of heaven, but the big men in the court who are invincible to make a contribution. It is precisely because of the existence of these people that they have established the foundation of the Tang Dynasty in one fell swoop, thus sweeping across the six harmony and unifying the world."

He let go of his hand holding the knife, took off the musket on his back, calmly loaded the projectiles, and then aimed at the short gun.

He continued: "However, there are always some people who deceive the world and steal the reputation, who rely on their past achievements, intend to be involved in military affairs as civil servants, and they are shameless without being able to do so. The current situation is urgent and there is always a disaster of overturning. It is very different from the usual rule of the country. We should gather the power of civil servants and let the army control the overall situation. As long as the army belonging to the Eastern Palace does its best and is not afraid of death, we will definitely defeat the rebels and make trouble correct!"

The word "正" was spit out, and the trigger was hooked. With a "bang", an enemy cavalry that rushed in front of the hill fell from the horse's back.

After putting away the muskets, Fang Jun turned his horse's head, rode his horse and galloped down from the other side of the Qiuyuan, and headed straight for Xuanwu Gate.

Under the afterglow of the sunset, the majestic Chang'an City is like a majestic city in the sky, exuding an unparalleled magnificent aura.
