Chapter 1195 Yang Jian’s Death (Part 1)


    Chapter 1193: Yang Jian’s Death (Part 1)


    Yang Jian never expected that his lifetime reputation would fall into the hands of a woman. Chang''e was so capable of pretending that he had not seen any problems for such a long time.


    "Calm down, you must be calm." Yang Jian kept saying to himself in his heart.


    Under Li Shimin''s plan to make one step at a time, the military power of the Fourth Battalion has been taken away by the Liang clan again, and Yang Jian''s direct troops have been lured and sent to Lantian again. The Liang clan and the Tang clan have already obtained absolute control of Chang''an City.


    Chang''an is the political center of the entire Guanxi. Getting Chang''an means getting most of Guanxi. It has to be said that Li Shimin hit Yang Jian''s key with one blow.


    Now the entire Chang''an is under the control of Li Shimin. Not to mention that Yang Jian is still besieged in this narrow Xuanwu Gate, even if he escapes from Xuanwu Gate, he still cannot escape from Chang''an.


    "I lost, completely defeated. I didn''t expect that Yang Jian, a wise man, would eventually lose the world because of a woman."


    Yang Jian said to himself with a depressed look on his face. He was not convinced of losing to Li Shimin this time, but nothing he said was useless.


    "Yang Jian, you no longer have any chance to turn the tables. If you know the truth, just surrender. Don''t increase unnecessary casualties..." Li Shimin shouted and persuaded to surrender.


    Hua Xiong on the side saw that Li Shimin had no intention of killing Yang Jian, and couldn''t help but hurriedly said, "Lord, Yang Jian is..."


    Li Shimin waved his hand and whispered: "Yang Jian''s crime is unforgivable, but he cannot die yet."


    All the generals, including Hua Xiong, looked puzzled, but they had never heard of leaving the other party with their lives after launching a coup.


    Seeing this, Li Shimin explained in a low voice: "Although we have seized the military power of the Fourth Battalion of Chang''an, Yang Guang''s army of 70,000, Wu Yun summoned 20,000, and Zuo Tiancheng''s army of 10,000, these three troops are still outside.


    The Sui army has a total of 100,000 troops. Once Yang Jian dies, these 100,000 troops will surely riot, and internal struggles in the Liang army will be inevitable, and then it will only benefit other princes.


    Only by capturing Yang Jian alive and pursuing Yang Jian''s orders can this part of military power be regained, and then it will be Yang Jian''s death. ”


    The generals couldn''t help but realize it when they heard this. They just wanted to avenge Dong Zhuo, but ignored the consequences of killing Yang Jian. None of them wanted to see the Liang army''s internal struggle continue to decline. Now that Yang Jian is already in the jar, he might as well let Yang Jian live for a few more days.


    Yang Jian naturally couldn''t stand to die, but under Li Shimin''s bewitching, the Guards still had weapons that nearly half of the people put down, and the remaining half were Yang Jian''s iron-core, and they would never surrender no matter how they persuaded them.


    Seeing this, Li Shimin decisively ordered: "Attack, remember to capture Yang Jian alive."


    "No."


    Hua Xiong and others will shout in unison.


    "Squeak..."


    At this moment, what Li Shimin and others did not expect was that the gate of Xuanwu Gate suddenly opened.


    And this sudden change made everyone shocked.


    Yang Jian didn''t know what was going on, but when he saw the city gate open, he couldn''t help but be overjoyed. He decisively drew his sword and shouted: "Get out."


    [Dingdong, Yang Jian’s skill “Sword General” is activated, with force +2, basic force 83, equipment +2, current force has increased to 87. 】


    Although Yang Jian knew that even if he escaped from Xuanwu Gate, he would still not be able to escape from Chang''an, he would definitely die if he stayed, and there was still a glimmer of hope to leave Xuanwu Gate.


    After escaping from Xuanwu Gate, Yang Jian will definitely face siege and intercept them from all directions. With his current military strength, he is destined to be unable to escape from Chang''an, but Yang Jian can hide in the residence to avoid the search. It is not easy for Chang''an to search him out at such a big age. Seeing this, Li Shimin asked with a look of shock and anger, "What''s going on?"


    "The soldier in charge of the city gate was suddenly killed. Although our people have recaptured the office, the switch has been destroyed. Now Xuanwu Gate is completely unable to close."


    "What?"


    Li Shimin couldn''t help but clench his fists.


    The archers on the Xuanwu Gate Tower, with tens of thousands of arrows at the same time, caused considerable casualties to Yang Jian''s guards, did not stop Yang Jian from escaping from Xuanwu Gate.


    Shortly after Yang Jiangang escaped from Xuanwu Gate, soldiers and horses surrounded and killed him appeared in every street in all directions, and thousands of troops started fighting in the streets.


    Li Shimin stood on the Xuanwu Gate Tower and saw that Yang Jian''s troops, who were not far away, were caught in a tough battle. He saw that he would be captured alive soon, but he had an inexplicable premonition in his heart.


    "Report... Yang Guang led his army back to Chang''an, and now he is at the city and is ready to attack the city."


    "What? Why did Yang Guang come back so soon?"


    Li Shimin was shocked.


    Yang Guang''s early return was completely beyond Li Shimin''s expectations. Yang Guang, who was in his plan, should have arrived in Tongguan at this time. Yang Guang not only returned early, but also acted as a siege as soon as he came back, and obviously had learned something in advance.


    "Qin Hao, you are so cruel." Li Shimin said gritting his teeth.


    Although there is no evidence at present that Yang Guang''s early return is related to Qin Hao, Li Shimin is 100% sure that this matter will definitely not be delayed with Qin Hao, and even if it is not Qin Hao, it is his subordinate''s work.


    "Lord, lord, lord can only appease Yang Guang''s army by capturing Yang Jian alive as soon as possible." Li Ru said with a serious face.


    "I know."


    After Li Shimin replied hatefully, he decisively pulled out the long sword from his waist and joined the ranks of capturing Yang Jian alive.


    An hour later, Yang Jian''s guard team had been killed, but the most critical Yang Jian disappeared.


    "Look for me. Yang Jian must be still in Chang''an. He will find Yang Jian even if he digs three feet into the ground."


    Li Shimin roared angrily, and he also felt a little regretful at this time. Why didn’t Li Yuanba be brought over? If Li Yuanba was there, Yang Jian would have no chance to escape.


    The reason why Li Shimin did not take Li Yuanba was mainly because he was afraid that Li Yuanba could not suppress his anger. If so, Yang Jian killed it, it would be a bad thing. So he sent Li Yuanba to Li Keyong''s army to prevent Li Keyong from losing to Wu Yunzhao and Shi Longsui.


    Although Li Shimin failed to catch Yang Jian, he successfully controlled Chang''an, and then released the detained generals such as Yu Juluo, Zhang Xiu, Zhang Ji, Xin Wenli, Shang Master and Apprentice.


    These detained Liang generals were completely disappointed with Yang Jian, so they all decisively chose to surrender to Li Shimin, and their surrender also strengthened Li Shimin''s status.


    While taking over Yang Jian''s power, Li Shimin continued to promote Yang Jian''s killing Dong Zhuo, and at the same time sent troops to search for Yang Jian''s traces throughout the city.


    Late at night, in a basement in Chang''an City, Yang Jian and Dugu Jian were hiding in it.
