Chapter 103: A Visitor in the Middle of the Night
In the middle of the night, Liu Kan had already turned off the lights and lay down in his clothes, but a few cat meows suddenly came from outside the doors and windows, and the hoarse voice seemed to penetrate people's eardrums.
Liu Kan was disturbed and unconsciously turned over.
There was a soft "squeak", and the wooden carved window was pried open with a knife from the outside, and then five figures flashed in from the outside, pouring down the cold moonlight.
Before they had time to get close to Liu Kan's bed, they saw the person lying flat suddenly sit up, and when they saw a few black-clothed people suddenly standing in front of them, they didn't panic at all, but went straight to the table and lit the oil lamp with a fire fold, and said in a light tone, "Why are you here now, what happened in the army to delay?" ”
These people are the elite backbone of the Flying Tigers, and it is inconvenient to order them in the camp during the day, so Liu Kan quietly left a secret message for them to come over in the middle of the night, but he never thought that he would be late for a stick of incense, and the husband who was patrolling outside had already passed by this long street for the third time.
The room was lit up with a bright yellow light, and the five people pulled down the black cloth on their faces and knelt on the ground to worship, and after being shouted by Liu Kan, Ji Ming took the initiative to come out, bowed forward, and said: "My lord, you have temporarily dispatched a lot of new generals to come up today, and the army is in chaos, we are afraid that we will be found out at night, so we have waited until now to come out, and we will ask the adults to punish if we are late." ”
The sky in September was still a little colder, and the night breeze blew into the house, making Liu Kan's arm feel a little cool, he walked to the hanger and put on a smock for himself, "Why should I punish you for doing a good job, there are still two days before the wedding day, it's always good to be cautious." ”
Ji Ming nodded, and then reported the matter, "After receiving Lord Zhao's order, his subordinates passed on the news, but his brother has been evacuated from his original position, and I am afraid that he will not be able to open the north gate to make way for the Flying Tigers on the wedding day." ”
For this point, Liu Kan had already thought of a countermeasure, otherwise he would not have replaced the officer guarding the city with Wu Guang's man so easily.
Walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, Liu Kan's half face was hidden in the shadows, his face seemed to be carved out of jadeite, "I didn't plan to go from the north gate, the south gate is in the middle of nowhere, after going out from there, I went into the mountains for more than ten miles, and the team of more than 100 people was hidden in the ancient trees and lush forests, which was simply a mud cow into the sea, no matter how high Chen Sheng's ability was, he couldn't find us." ”
The north gate is the main gate of the city, usually inside and outside the city are that road, if you go out from the north gate on the night of the wedding, it will definitely attract the attention of others, and when the time comes, I am afraid that it will delay the time, and miss the best time to escape, so after thinking about it again and again, Liu Kan still decided that it is better to have more than one thing.
Besides, after going out from the main gate, it is the official road, and the Flying Tigers will leave horseshoe prints when they ride on horseback, even if Chen Sheng's people have already fled to the edge of the sky when they get the news, the traces left by more than a hundred horses will also expose the route they left, and it is only a matter of time before they are caught up.
The South Gate is different, there is no one walking all the way out of the South Gate, and there is no worry when you enter the mountain.
They were preparing to attack Xianyang, but they didn't know that Xianyang had also urgently dispatched troops, and the confrontation between the two armies had long been not something that Chen Sheng could do if he said he wouldn't do it, so as soon as they left, the soldiers would still have to come out, and Chen Sheng would still have the heart to waste time on them if he was worried about internal and external troubles.
It's just that although it is not an important official road outside the south gate, Chen Sheng still arranged an army to be stationed there when he captured Yucheng, and if the two sides met head-on, they were afraid that there would be a disturbance.
Ji Ming was worried, and he didn't vomit or be unhappy, "But the south gate guards the Shenji Battalion, if we don't prepare in advance, we are only afraid of ......."
How could Liu Kan be careless about such a big thing as escaping, he had already contacted Zhang Miao, the commander of the Shenji Battalion, and knew that he was a greedy person for money, so he was not afraid at all.
Waving his hand to stop Ji Ming's words, Liu Kan said: "In the past few days, I have let Zhao Chengfeng find out Zhang Miao's preferences, knowing that this person is greedy for money, I will send someone to send him some gold, silver and jewelry tomorrow, and said that the new lady's mother was buried on Nanshan, and wanted to go out of the city to worship on the night of the wedding. ”
Ji Ming raised his eyes and looked at Liu Kan, who was half of his body hidden in the shadows, and happened to meet the other party's black and star-like eyes also looking at him.
The two lines of sight between the electric light and flint touched, and it actually provoked a little spark, Ji Ming's heart shook and a cold sweat came out from behind, he remembered that when he first saw Liu Kan in the army, the other party was still a young man's face, and he didn't want to be in the rebel army for a period of time, but he gave birth to a lot of overlordship, and that bit of youth has been wiped out by time.
Anyway, they are all people who have sworn to follow him to death, Ji Ming only needs to obey Liu Kan's plan, he knelt down facing Liu Kan Lisuo, and soon a cadre behind him also followed his movements and knelt on one leg, and the cold moonlight came in from the window, reflecting on everyone's face as if it was a layer of frost.
"Follow your lord's orders, and your subordinates will do it!"
After sending Ji Ming and the others away, Liu Kan gradually walked out of the shadows, he walked to the window and closed the door lightly, and a sigh that seemed to be there rose in the room for no reason.
He thought that the plan he had worked so hard to negotiate with everyone would be perfect for everyone's safety.
Early the next morning, after breakfast, Liu Kan called Zhao Chengfeng, Ge Ying and others into the study, and after telling everyone about his plan, he chose Zhao Chengfeng to help him bribe Zhang Miao.
As soon as Zhao Chengfeng left, Ge Ying couldn't sit down in the chair, he had always been Liu Kan's left and right hand before he was injured, whether it was government or private affairs, he was the one who was needed, but now it's good, if he is injured, he can only be the waste person who drags his feet, which makes him who has always been arrogant how can he accept it.
"My lord, if you have anything else, tell me too, or I will feel uncomfortable." Everyone is acting for the plan of the wedding night, even Xia Nan has his own tasks, except for him to accompany General Lu Ming to gossip, which is simply inferior to a woman.
Ge Ying's face was still a little pale, but it was much better than the night he was sent back, he knew that Ge Ying was an idle person, so let him stay in the room for fear that he would be sick if he was not sick.
