In fact, Su Cheng also discovered that Chai Shao did not have many cavalrymen, but Su Cheng had no expression of worry on his face because he knew that Li Shimin must have made complete preparations.

The reason why Li Shimin gave him a secret order to protect the palace was just to protect firearms. Therefore, Su Cheng's target was musketeers, and the rest was left to Chai Shao.

Even if Chai Shao couldn't do it, Su Cheng didn't believe that Li Shimin had no other arrangements.

So Su Cheng's face was still very calm and he said lightly: "It's just that big, it's useless if there are too many people."

"That's right, isn't it just one or two thousand people, afraid of a ball?" Cheng Chumo said a little disdainful.

Yuchi Baolin shouted: "Here is here! Here!"

The sound of horse hooves is getting closer and closer, and a torch is already appearing in front of him.

Su Cheng took out his telescope and observed it carefully, and said in a deep voice: "Sure enough, there are muskets and two cannons, but they are just small cannons."

Li Yun also took out the telescope and observed it carefully. Cheng Chumo and the others next to him were scratching their heads in a hurry. Originally, they also had a telescope, but because they suddenly stayed in Sujiazhuang, they did not bring the telescope.

"What have you seen?" Although Cheng Chumo and others tried hard to stare at each other, they couldn't see clearly.

"There are indeed one or two thousand cavalrymen, and nearly a thousand musketeers. The prince is quite prepared." Su Cheng said with a smile.

Cheng Chumo hurriedly asked, "Captain can build muskets and cannons? Can it be used?"

"It looks like that. I don't know whether it can be used. After all, with the design drawings, if you can't even make a look, it's not right. At least the musket can be used. After the musket is made, they must have tried it." Su Cheng shook his head slightly and said.

Cheng Chumo and others couldn't help but be shocked when they heard this. They said that there were actually muskets in the rebels, and the shadows of the famous trees, not to mention that they had played muskets themselves, and they knew deeply how powerful muskets were.

If it is a bow and arrow, they are wearing armor and wielding spears, and they are confident that they can block it, but they really can't stop it when facing the musket volley.

Not only are they unable to stop it, but no one in the world can stop it, and no matter how good the martial arts are, it is impossible.

However, when they saw the three rows of musket soldiers next to them, they felt much calmer again. Li Chengqian showed off his muskets in front of Su Cheng. Isn’t that a squad show off? After all, muskets were caused by Su Cheng, and Su Cheng can be said to be the ancestor of muskets.

In the distance, Hou Junji, who was riding on a horse, also raised his telescope and observed it carefully.

Li Chengqian, Du He, Helan Chu Shi and others stared at Hou Junji because they didn't have telescopes.

Telescopes are treasures, and military generals attach great importance to this. Some caravans also attach great importance to it and try every means to obtain telescopes, even if they are very precious.

As Prince Li Chengqian, it is not difficult to obtain a telescope. As long as you speak to your father or Su Cheng, you will definitely be able to obtain a telescope, but he did not.

As soon as he was unwilling to bow to Su Cheng, in his opinion, Su Cheng should take the initiative to present the telescope to him. How could he have the reason why the prince took the initiative to ask for it?

Secondly, he didn't think he could use a telescope.

But now, he regretted it a little. He would have asked his father for a telescope if he had known it.

"Duke, how about it?" Li Chengqian asked impatiently.

Hou Junji said in a deep voice: "There are archers on the gate tower, and there are ambushers on the left side of the palace gate. The shadows are so vast that they can't be seen clearly. In front of the right side of the palace gate is Su Cheng."

Li Chengqian, Du He and others were stunned when they heard this. They thought that there would be archers on the gatehouse. After all, His Majesty may have known that they were going to rebel, so it was normal to be prepared.

However, they did not expect that there were ambushers at the palace gate. After all, even if His Majesty knew that they would rebel, he would not know that they were going to rebel tonight. How could they set up ambushers at the palace gate in advance?

What shocked them even more was how could Su Cheng be here?

After all, Su Cheng has always lived in Sujiazhuang outside the city. How could he appear at Xuanwu Gate late at night?

Unless, Your Majesty and Su Cheng already knew that they were going to rebel tonight!

So who revealed it?

Li Chengqian, Du He and the others thought of a person, Hegan Chengji.

It must be Hegan Chengji who confessed, otherwise how could there be ambushers outside Xuanwu Gate? How could Su Cheng be here late at night?

At this moment, Li Chengqian was full of hatred for Hegan Chengji.

However, Li Chengqian immediately comforted himself, what could Su Cheng do if he was here?

Just as Li Chengqian was thinking this way, Hou Junji's voice came to his ears.

"If there are musketeers, if there are three columns, there will be about a thousand musketeers!"

"impossible!"

"How is that possible?"

"Where did the musketeers come from?"

"Didn't the muskets and artillery of Shenji Camp have not returned to Chang'an yet?"

Li Chengqian, Du He and others couldn't help but exclaim when they heard this. Their biggest reliance was that they had firearms in their hands. Unexpectedly, Su Cheng had musket soldiers!

The question is where did the musketeers come from Su Cheng?

Hou Junji pondered and said, "Although the musketeers from Shenji Camp have not returned to Chang'an yet, the firearms surveillance must have stock musketeers, so it is easy for Su Cheng to pull up a musketeer temporarily, but I'm afraid there is no time to train."

When Li Chengqian heard this, he suddenly realized it and felt relieved. Yes, the musketeers that Su Cheng temporarily pulled up must have not undergone much training, and I am afraid they will not be of much use.

If you want to break through Xuanwu Gate, you must first break through the city gate, and the other hand, you must defeat the ambush in front of you.

Li Chengqian stared at the Xuanwu Gate in front of him, and was very excited. It was here that his father launched the Xuanwu Gate Incident and ascended the throne in one fell swoop. Now his father is no longer as brave as he used to be, and he has also led his troops to the Xuanwu Gate.

Li Chengqian suppressed the excitement in his heart and said in a deep voice: "Duke Chen, please give orders!"

Hou Junji was not polite, and said in a deep voice: "Put up artillery and prepare to bombard the palace gate. Musketeers lined up to step forward, and cavalry lined up behind and waited for fighter planes!"

Du He clasped his fists and said, "Get orders!"

After saying that, Du He immediately turned his horse's head and drove the horse to the back and shouted: "Hurry up, musketeers come forward to form the array. I'll all be quick, be more neat, and you must remember your usual practice!"

The musketeers running behind ran up with muskets and started to line up. With Du He and Helan Chu Shi's loud shouts, they finally arranged into three rows. Although they were a bit crooked, they were indeed three rows.

Hou Junji frowned slightly, but Li Chengqian looked at the three rows of musketeers but felt very much looking forward to it.
