Zhao Junsheng and the three of them were helplessly coerced back to the city, he looked left and right, and whispered to Gao Xiu and Xue Andu: "We have to find a way to go out of the city to keep up with the 10,000 cavalry, and track down which direction they played, this is a 100,000 urgent matter!" ”

Gao Xiu responded in a low voice: "Captain, now that the street is crowded with people, there is no way to turn around, let's fall back to the foot first and then find a way!" ”

Zhao Junsheng turned his head to see that a steady stream of Rouran cavalry behind him was coming in from outside the city, and the city gates were crowded, where could he still get out?

He thought for a moment and whispered to the two, "Let's go to the West Gate and go out of the city!" ”

Gao Xiu and Xue An had no choice but to follow him to the West City Gate, but there were a large number of Rouran cavalry in front of them, and they couldn't run if they wanted to ride their horses and gallop, so they could only wait for the Rouran cavalry in front to return to the house where they were staying, and then speed up and go in the direction of the West City Gate.

The three of them rode horses and ran to the west city gate, but found that the west city gate was guarded by soldiers, and the city gate and outside had pulled up the horse to block the road.

The three of them had to stop their horses, their faces changed when they saw this scene, and Xue Andu asked in a solemn voice, "What's going on?" Why did you suddenly tighten your guard? Have we revealed our identities and whereabouts? ”

Zhao Junsheng frowned: "We are all very careful in our actions, we should not have been discovered by the Rouran people, I think something else must have happened." Let's go to the south gate again, let's go! ”

The three of them immediately turned around and galloped towards the south gate, and encountered many Rouran cavalry who returned to the city in twos and threes along the way.

Coming to the south gate, the three of them had to stop again, the south gate was still strengthened by a large number of Rouran soldiers, and the passage out of the city pulled the horse to resist, how could they get out? forcibly rushed through the pass, but I was afraid that not only would I not be able to get out of the city, but I would also expose my identity and whereabouts, and finally be trapped alive in the city.

"Let's go, go to the North Gate!" Zhao Junsheng gritted his teeth, pulled the reins and turned around and galloped in the direction of the north gate, and Xue Andu and Gao Xiu had no choice but to follow behind and gallop wildly.

It took another cup of tea to run to the north gate, Zhao Junsheng saw the situation at the north gate, and his heart was cold, and there were many Rouran soldiers guarding the north gate, so he only needed to enter, not go out.

Xue Andu and Gao Xiu were also very worried, and Gao Xiu stepped up to Zhao Junsheng's side and whispered comfortingly: "Duwei, why don't you ······ Let's go to the East Gate again? ”

"You don't have to go to the east gate, the three city gates in the north, south and west are all arranged with a large number of guards, the east gate can't be without, even if there is not, there may be a trap set there, if this action of the Rouran people is aimed at us, we will go to the east gate to throw ourselves into the net!"

Zhao Junsheng's words made Xue Andu and Gao Xiu's hearts sink, and the situation became more and more severe for them.

Xue Andu said: "Captain, now that this has happened, I'm afraid that we can't go to the original foothold, we have to find another foothold!" ”

Zhao Junsheng thought for a while and shook his head: "No, we still have to go back to our original foothold, if we don't go, once that place is broken in by other Rouran people and the body is found, the Rouran people will know that there are spies infiltrated in the city, and our situation will be even more dangerous, we can only cover up the traces by returning there!" Let's go, let's go back! ”

The three of them cautiously returned to their foothold, and after inspection, they found no signs of anyone breaking in after they left, and they were a little relieved.

Although he was safe for the time being, Zhao Junsheng did not dare to relax his vigilance at all, he had to find a way to find out where the Rouran people's military action was aimed at, and he had to act immediately.

Zhao Junsheng said to Xue Andu and Gao Xiu: "We have to find a way to catch a tongue, and this tongue must be heavy enough to be qualified to know what the military operations of the Rouran people are!" ”

Gao Xiu's mind turned, and he said to Zhao Junsheng: "Du Lieutenant, the general Rouran who left with 10,000 cavalry appeared outside Nantian Fort, at that time there was an old Rouran nobleman and that Tuzhen princess by his side, according to the news we learned, the general of Rouran who guarded Shengle City was called Shelun, I think that person is Shelun, and he also has a deputy general named Afugan, if I guess correctly, the general who stayed in Shengle City is Afugan, if we can catch the people around him, we should be able to force us to ask for the news we want to know!" ”

A strange light flashed in Zhao Junsheng's eyes, and he got up and grabbed his weapon: "Let's go, let's go to the palace!" ”

The three of them swaggered through the streets, and soon came to the vicinity of the palace, where they observed the surrounding terrain and found a hidden house with a clear view of the palace gates.

As soon as the three of them hid in the house, a team of Rouran cavalry came to the gate of the palace, led by one person who looked at the outfit was a general, Zhao Junsheng had cultivated his internal strength, and he could see clearly at a glance that this Rouran general was the one who stayed outside the city with five thousand cavalry.

"That must be Avogan! Pay attention to the people around him, as long as there is a single person, we will seize the opportunity to arrest him and interrogate him! ”

Listening to Zhao Junsheng's instructions, Xue Andu and Gao Xiu immediately opened their eyes wide, trying to remember all the people around Ah Fugan.

"They're all in the palace!" Xue Andu whispered.

Zhao Junsheng: "It's okay, sooner or later it's going to come out!" Let's wait patiently here! ”

After waiting for a full cup of tea, someone finally came out of the palace, Zhao Junsheng's eyes lit up, "This person was by Afugan's side just now, as Afugan's cronies, he should know something!" Xiuda stayed to answer, and Zihao went out with me to arrest people! ”

Banu walked out of the palace with a smile on his face, he was very happy in his heart, just now, the deputy marshal Afugan promoted him to an official and made him the chief of the guard, responsible for Afugan's diet and personal guards, this is a fat difference, full of oil and water!

He received his first errand since taking office, gathering people to slaughter cattle and sheep, preparing a feast, and recruiting singers, because Afugan had to hold a feast in the afternoon to buy the lieutenant generals.

"My lord, I haven't seen you for a long time, but I didn't expect you to go to the side of the handsome Afugan on an errand!" Two Rouran soldiers walked over with a smile on their faces, and one of them greeted Banu.

When Banu looked at the two of them, he didn't seem to know each other, and he wondered, "Who are you?" ”

"My lord, I'm your distant nephew, my name is Juyan, don't you remember?"

Banu looked confused: "Distant nephew? Juyan? ”

"Yes, I'm Juyan!"

A person next to him quickly stepped forward and slapped Banu on the shoulder, Banu only felt an inexplicable force pouring into his body, and his whole body was numb, and he couldn't use any strength.

"It's been a long time since I saw you, so I'll invite you to have a drink and take a walk!" Gao Xiu and Zhao Junsheng held Banu who had lost the power of resistance from the left and right sides of the hostage, and a sharp blade was pressed against Banu's ribs, so that Banu did not dare to shout loudly.

Banu was thrown in the corner by Zhao Junsheng, and he asked with a frightened face: "Who are you, and why are you holding me hostage?" ”

Zhao Junsheng stroked his lips at Gao Xiu, Gao Xiu nodded, and threatened Banu with a dagger: "What's your name?" What is your position at Avogan's side? ”

"You······ You don't know my name? ”

"Hey, should I know? Say it quickly, or I'll poke you in a big hole! ”

"Don't, don't kill me, I said, my name is Banu, and I'm the head of the guard of Afugan!"

Gao Xiu looked at Zhao Junsheng and Xue Andu, and Zhao Junsheng motioned to Gao Xiu: "Ask him, where are Princess Wuluhu and Princess Tuzhen, and where did Shelun go with 10,000 cavalry!" ”

Gao Xiu repeated Zhao Junsheng's question to Banu in soft words, and Banu muttered for a while.

"Captain, he said that Wulu took Princess Tuzhen to find a wizard forty miles away to heal her, and Shelun took 10,000 cavalry to attack the Jinling camp!"

Zhao Junsheng's face changed, "It turns out that Wulu and Princess Tuzhen are not in this Shengle City, no wonder Shelun dares to lead troops to attack the Jinling camp!" Ask him, which way did the 10,000 cavalry led by Shelun go? ”

As soon as Gao Xiu asked, Banu immediately replied in a soft language: "The army of Marshal Shelun should be on Tunqi Mountain, only this road is the closest, and there is no danger in the middle!" ”

Zhao Junsheng felt a chill in his heart, after the fortress of Tunqi Mountain was destroyed by the Rouran army, there was indeed no dangerous obstacle from Tunqi Mountain to the Jinling camp, and there were only a few checkpoints, outposts and beacons, which naturally could not stop the Rouran Iron Cavalry, and could only play a role in early warning.

Things have come to this point, Zhao Junsheng knows that it is useless for him to be in a hurry, and he has missed the best time to send the information back, even if he has a way to go out of the city now, when the information reaches the Jinling camp, he is afraid that Shelun has already taken the Rouran Iron Horse to the gate of the Jinling camp.

"I only hope that the Jinling battalion will get an early warning in time and gather troops to meet the enemy!"

Zhao Junsheng sighed secretly, walked up to Banu and asked sharply: "Why did the four gates of Shengle City suddenly strengthen the garrison, who is it aimed at, say!" ”

Gao Xiu translated Zhao Junsheng's words, Banu saw Zhao Junsheng's dangerous face, saw that Zhao Junsheng was the leader, and hurriedly said: "This is an order from Afugan, the purpose is to prevent someone from reporting the news that Shelun led troops to attack the Jinling camp to Princess Wuluhu and Tuzhen!" ”

"Oh?" Zhao Junsheng was stunned, this ····· There seemed to be dirt and filth inside Rouran, he thought for a while and asked: "Shelun led the troops to attack the Jinling camp at the instigation of Ah Fugan?" What does he want to do? ”

"Yes, yes, you guessed it right, it was Avogan who instigated it, and he wanted to replace him!"

"I see!"

At this moment, Xue Andu whispered by the window: "Duwei, come and see, there is a new situation, Wuluhu and Princess Tuzhen are back!" ”
