The city gates of Chang 'an were tightly shut, and the Mingde Gate tower was filled with Imperial Army soldiers armed with bows and arrows. The crowd was moving, and they were on high alert.
Li Xuan led Feng Li, Xie Shufang, and company's 2,000 Imperial Guards in front of the city gates. Both sides were at loggerheads.
But what was even stranger was that none of these Imperial Army soldiers dared to shoot at Li Jiancheng. They seemed to be purely defending, and even their defensive posture was somewhat timid.
"Now that the King of Qin has already sealed the city, I'm afraid that something has happened in the palace. Look at the commander of the Imperial Army, Zhang Gongjin has also been replaced. I'm afraid that His Majesty is in trouble.”
" Your Highness," Feng Li said impatiently," we shouldn't delay any longer. Let's attack the city."”
"No, there are 30,000 Imperial Army soldiers in the city, while we only have 2,000.”Xue Wanche immediately denied it and looked at Li Xuan.""The Crown Prince's status is special. Even if Li Shiming controls the army, no one else would be so bold.”
Sitting on the horse, Li Xuan didn't say a word.
He knew Li Er's style of doing things better than anyone else. He was a typical killer who liked to be extravagant and achieve great things. He was extremely ruthless in the struggle for power. Such a person must not be given time to breathe.
But now, it was too difficult to break through the city gate.
The pistol was out of bullets. Damn it, this was the biggest problem. He could not help but summon the God-level Lottery System again.
"System, when will I be able to get my lottery points?”Li Xuan said angrily.
"Answer host, as you currently have the authority to command 2,000 imperial soldiers, your points have reached 30,000. You can now draw the reward!”
The system's pleasant voice sounded, making Li Xuan smile.""Click to draw."
" Alright, host. Please wait a moment…"
The virtual image in his mind flashed, and a spinning roulette began to spin rapidly. After a few seconds, it suddenly stopped, and a black box popped out.
"Congratulations, host. You have received 30,000 bullets and two grenades.”
“……”
Li Xuan wanted to curse on the spot." That's all? Can you have something else?"
Compared to bullets, he needed a large army to attack the city. Now that Li Er and Li Jiancheng had fallen out, it was a bloody political battle. If they fought, it would definitely be a life-and-death battle. What use was bullets?
Although there were two grenades, the city gate was impregnable. It was not clear if it could be blown up.
" Please calm down, host. The prizes are randomly drawn…"
Ignoring the nonsense, Li Xuan checked how to use the bullets. They were automatically loaded, which meant that he didn't have to consider changing the magazine. He was only responsible for firing.
"Forget it."
Without any time to delay, Li Xuan turned to look at Zhao Zilong. He was dressed in a white robe, riding a Yulan White Dragon Stallion and holding a silver spear. He looked very awe-inspiring as his eyes were filled with fighting spirit.
"General Zhao, do you have a way to take down this city?”Li Xuan asked.
"Reporting to my lord." Zhao Yun cupped his fists and said,"If we break through the gate, I will protect you even if I die."”
“……”
Li Xuan was taken aback. To put it bluntly, he had to wait until they broke through the city gates. Helpless, he waved his hand and gradually retreated. He looked up at the city gate and asked,""Who is guarding the city?"
"Your Highness, the general guarding the city is Zhang Gongjin, the aide of King Qin's residence!”
After Xie Shufang's reminder, Li Xuan knew that he couldn't wait any longer. He gritted his teeth and quickly headed for the city gate.
They checked the city gate. It was half a meter thick and made of northeast pine wood. It could not be blown open with a grenade.
"Your Highness, I advise you to surrender obediently…"
Just as he was hesitating, a sneer suddenly sounded from the city tower. Li Xuan looked up and saw a fully armored man holding a Mo Saber looking down at the city gate. He threatened,""I hope that Your Highness will not make things difficult for me. Now that His Majesty has already given the throne to His Highness the King of Qin to represent the country, why is Your Highness the Crown Prince so stubborn?”
Li Er really forced him to abdicate.
Li Xuan wasn't surprised at all. He slowly pulled out his pistol and estimated the distance between him and Zhang Gongjin. It was completely within range and didn't affect his accuracy.
He smiled.
"Zhang Gongjin, what do you think this is?”
Li Xuan couldn't be bothered to waste his breath on him. He raised his pistol, looked at the crosshair, and suddenly pulled the trigger. A red-hot bullet shot out of the barrel and instantly pierced through Zhang Gongjin's glabella.
His entire body stiffened, and his body leaned forward, falling down from the city gate.
Instantly, all the imperial guards were dumbfounded. They looked at Li Xuan as if he was a monster, and everyone revealed fearful expressions.
"Zhang Gongjin colluded with the King of Qin to rebel and ended up like this. You're just a small soldier.”
Li Xuan snorted coldly and continued." His Majesty is in grave danger. If anyone continues to persist in their wrongdoings, their entire family will be executed. Open the door!”
"Open the door!"
"Open the door!"
Feng Li, Xie Shufang, and the others roared.
The Imperial Army soldiers guarding the city were afraid. They had never wanted to participate in this political struggle, but they were only afraid of the might of the Imperial Army commander. Now that Yuchi Gong and Zhang Gongjin were dead, they began to waver.
" No, if we open the city gates, His Highness the King of Qin will definitely kill us…"
"His Highness the Crown Prince is the future emperor, why would I be afraid of Li Shi Min…"
Suddenly, a loud commotion came from inside the city gate. The door was slightly opened, and it was sometimes closed and sometimes opened.
Upon seeing this, Li Xuan pulled out a grenade without any hesitation and threw it through the crack of the door. With a flick of his whip, he said with a sonorous voice,""All soldiers, listen up. Follow me to attack the city. I swear I won't return until I kill the King of Qin!”
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
A voice that could topple mountains and overturn the seas roared over, like a black cloud that passed through the sky, rushing up Ming De Sect.
