When taking stock of Ming Taizong at the beginning, Lao Zhu was stunned!

Chapter 86: With military power in hand, the world is at hand!

Chapter 86: With military power in hand, the world is at hand!

Ming Dynasty, Yongle 16th year.

Zhu Di already understood that Li Shimin could achieve this step. Not to mention the whole Yuan Cong Forbidden Army, there were probably eighty-nine percent of them who were convinced by Tang Taizong and took refuge with Li Shimin.

You know, although Li Shimin is also part of the royal family and knows many defenses, he is able to conduct palace battles and even has ambushes and cavalry!

It is definitely not the effect he can achieve by buying some people or infiltrating some people into the palace!

Even within the Forbidden Army, it is very difficult to regain some officers. If you want them to turn a deaf ear, unless the entire Forbidden Army turns against you, this big move of sending troops into the palace will inevitably be discovered and questioned.

[There are two records in history about the incident of Li Shimin leading troops into the palace. 】

[First, nine people including Gongsun Wuda, Dugu Yanyun, Zheng Rentai, and Zhang Gongjin entered the Xuanwu Gate to crusade, Li Yuanji, and Li Jiancheng. 】

[Another record states that Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty led Changsun Wuji, Yuchi Jingde, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and others to raid the Xuanwu Gate and behead Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji. 】

Tang Dynasty, Wude Ninth Year.

At this time, Li Yuan has been couped, and now he is no different from the puppet emperor.

But when I saw the three characters Xuanwumen appearing in the miracle, I still felt dissatisfied.

Even if the miracle said that the Tang Dynasty would flourish in the hands of Li Shimin in the future, it did not prevent him from feeling dissatisfied and angry after losing power.

However, there was Li Yuan who was even more upset than him.
-
Tang Dynasty, Wude eight years.

Li Yuan sat in the front seat and almost gritted his teeth and said: "Erlang, you really gave me a big surprise!"

The miracle had clearly said that the three of them were going to start an open battle, so I thought it would be so thrilling, but I never thought that it wouldn't even make a big splash!
Just within this palace, the overall situation has been decided!

They were easily captured by Li Shimin without even making any waves, so what did their previous decades of suppression and fighting mean?
Really ridiculous, ridiculous!

He is a majestic emperor, but the power in his hands has been emptied and he doesn't even know it!
Li Jiancheng also looked pale. He always knew that he was not as talented as Li Shimin, so he kept suppressing Li Shimin.

But he really didn't expect that even if he, his fourth son, and two thousand elite soldiers were ambushed in the palace, they wouldn't have much effect.

The entire palace and even the guards were captured by Li Shimin. How could he fight?
No chance at all!
Even if the two of them were lucky enough to escape Li Shimin's ambush and lead 2000 elite soldiers, they would probably be trapped and still fighting, and it would be a dead end!

At the same time, thinking of this, he also complained a little about Li Yuan. As an emperor, your power in the palace has been emptied out by others, and you don't even know it. Which emperor is like you?

[Actually, before Li Shimin took action, Li Yuan actually planned to summon Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji. 】

[Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji discussed it before entering the palace. Finally, they thought that their troops and horses were ready and they should enter the palace to check the situation first, so they entered the palace through Xuanwu Gate. 】

[I just never thought that I would not be able to reach the place I prepared. As soon as I arrived at the Linhu store, I met Li Shimin holding weapons, riding a war horse, and wearing armor, and a group of soldiers behind him. 】

[I don’t know whether it was because he was intimidated by the opponent or because his own skills were not good. Li Yuanji took the lead in shooting a few arrows, but failed to hit Li Shimin. Instead, Li Shimin bent his bow and nocked an arrow. In three nights, Li Yuanji hit the arrow. 】

[Subsequently, while chasing Li Jiancheng, Li Shimin's horse accidentally got caught on a branch in the woods, and Li Shimin himself was unable to get up for a while. 】【Subsequently, Li Jiancheng attempted to strangle Li Shimin with a bowstring, but was stopped by Yuchi Jingde. Then Li Jian fled to Wude Hall again, but was captured by Qin Shubao and others halfway. 】

[And the reason why he ran to Wude Hall was probably because he wanted to ask Li Yuan for help. 】
-
Tang Dynasty, the third year of Zhenguan.

Seeing himself ascending the throne amidst the miracle, Li Shimin's expression was still a little complicated.

At that time, he was actually not very happy. After all, it was a brother-in-law killing, which was against human ethics.

He stood up and said to everyone present: "The reason why I can conquer the world today is all due to the power of you. Without you heroes, there would be no me!"

[Although Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji failed, their troops who entered the palace in advance still started to move. 】

[Xie Shufang and others led 2000 elite soldiers from the East Palace and Prince Qi’s Mansion to Xuanwu Gate. 】

[However, Zhang Gongjin and others from the Qin Prince's Palace who were guarding the Xuanwu Gate refused to retreat in the face of the incoming Second Palace troops. Later, people from Su Wei came to support them and jointly fought against the Second Palace troops. 】

[At this time, Li Shimin came to Xuanwu Gate with the heads of Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji. In addition, soldiers and horses from the Qin Palace also came to support, and the elite troops from the East Palace and Qi Palace began to disperse. 】
-
Han Dynasty, the fourth year of Yuanshou.

Liu Che sighed: "The most important thing in the country ultimately lies in military power. With military power in hand, the world is in control!"

Looking at the miracle, it is clearly Li Yuan's place. The soldiers who protect the emperor's safety actually fight side by side with the rebel Qin King's army. This scene is really absurd!
Even Emperor Li Yuan looked extremely ridiculous.

Li Shimin's prestige among the army is too high!
And his influence is too great.

The Xuanwu Gate change did not happen overnight. Li Shimin's continuous control of the army and infiltration of all parties over the past decades were also extremely critical factors.

Maybe he really didn't want to use force, but his advance arrangements and penetration in all aspects are irrefutable.

Moreover, it was impossible for Li Shimin to control everyone who happened to play a role.

What was revealed in the miracle was far from the full strength that Li Shimin truly possessed!
Wei Qing also commented at this time: "It is not complete just to rely on the surrender of the middle and upper-level generals. The reason why Li Shimin was able to get the support of the guards and make them willing to turn a blind eye to Li Shimin's rebellion must be that the soldiers at the grassroots level are also willing to surrender to him." , otherwise it will be difficult to carry out the military affairs!"
-
Ming Dynasty, Hongwu 13th year.

At this moment, Zhu Bai felt that the history books were fake!
You must know that what was recorded in the history books in their library handed down from the Ming Dynasty is that Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty was clearly forced to have no choice but to fight back at the end of his rope. It is really a pity to see him.

But among the miracles, he was obviously prepared!

Zhu Di also sighed: "No matter what happens, after all, Tang Gaozu is the orthodox in this area, and Tang Taizong can limit the venue to the palace in a very short period of time."

"The waves of the battle have not spread from Chang'an at all, which shows his control over this area!"

"It's no different from my hometown of Luoyang!"
