The next day, before dawn, a hurried alarm bell woke all the soldiers, and more than 2,000 soldiers woke up from their sleep and ran out of the hut barefoot, talking about what had happened.

At this time, a patrol came from the mouth of the valley and ran towards the wooden house where Yang Xuangan lived, and everyone asked loudly, "What happened?" ”

The patrol just ran with his head down, ignoring everyone's inquiries, causing a lot of shouting and scolding.

Not long after, several of Yang Xuangan's personal soldiers rushed out of the big wooden house and shouted: "The lord has an order, and all officers above the brigade commander will come to discuss the matter." ”

The officers squeezed out of the crowd and walked briskly towards the big wooden house, and everyone stood beside the wooden house in groups and talking.

Zhang Xuan walked quickly to another room next to the big wooden house, this is Yang Wenjun's residence, just as Yang Wenjun came out of the house while getting dressed, and when he saw Zhang Xuan, he hurriedly asked, "Zhang Gongzi, what happened?" ”

"The sentry won't say, but I guess Yuwenshu's army has arrived."

Yang Wenjun was taken aback, hurriedly pulled Zhang Xuan aside, and said in a low voice: "I negotiated with Xuan Gan yesterday, he will disband the army today, and then leave with us." ”

"Go to Yangjiazhuang?"

"Nope! No! He planned to go to Liangjun, and we went back to Yangjiazhuang, and he promised not to involve Yangjiazhuang again. ”

At this time, a personal soldier came and said to Yang Wenjun: "The marshal, please come over immediately." ”

Yang Wenjun patted Zhang Xuan on the shoulder, turned around and followed the soldiers.

After a while, chaos began to arise in the barracks, and the officers finished their brief deliberations, and came back to convey the commander's intentions, and the whole army was disbanded, and each person was given five yuan and three buckets of rice, and everyone found their way home.

The valley was in chaos, shouting, scolding, and shouting, everyone went back to the house to pack their things, and the officers ran to get money and food, and the money and food were first distributed to the officers, and then the officers were issued to the soldiers under them, as for how the officers distributed it, Yang Xuangan didn't care.

At this time, Yang Wenjun walked quickly and whispered to Zhang Xuan: "Go to the big boat quickly, we will leave immediately." ”

The situation was already very critical, and the sentinels found the main force of the Sui army ten miles away, and 10,000 troops were killing along the mountain road towards the valley mouth.

Yang Xuangan made a plan to get rid of the golden cicada, dragged the officers and soldiers with money and food, and asked them to distribute their belongings by themselves, while he escaped from behind with a dozen personal soldiers, burrowed into the woods, and rushed to the river from the path.

The two big boats on the river have untied their cables, Yang Wenjun and the children of the Yang family have already taken the first step to get on the boat, and after a while, Yang Xuangan took more than a dozen personal soldiers out of the path and ran towards a big boat behind.

Yang Xuangan waved his hand as he ran, "You guys go quickly!" ”

At this time, Zhang Xuan was in a hurry, how could he be separated from Yang Xuangan, in a hurry, he said to Yang Wenjun: "My master still has very important information for me to convey to Yang Shangshu." ”

Yang Wenjun was so anxious that he stomped his feet, "Hey! Why didn't you say it earlier, go quickly, follow him! ”

Zhang Xuan rushed onto the board, jumped ashore in a few steps, and chased Yang Xuangan with his feet, and heard Yang Wenjun shouting behind him from a distance: "Zhang Gongzi, remember to go back to Yangjiazhuang!" ”

"I see!"

Zhang Xuan ran extremely fast, and rushed to Yang Xuangan's big ship in a blink of an eye, at this time Yang Xuangan had already boarded the boat and was beckoning the boatman to open the boat, Zhang Xuan rushed forward and shouted: "Yang Shangshu, wait a minute!" ”

"What else is going on with you?" Yang Xuangan knew that he was the one who came with Yang Wenjun.

Zhang Xuan raised the seven-star sword high, "My master Yang Qi, there is important information for me to convey to Yang Shangshu!" ”

Yang Xuangan recognized the Seven Star Sword, which was his father Yang Su's former sword, and was later awarded to Yang Qi, who was also his confidant, and trained reserve warriors for him in Luoyang in the name of running a martial arts hall.

Suddenly, a personal soldier pointed to the mountain road in the distance and shouted: "Lord, look, Sui army!" ”

Yang Xuangan also saw that there was a dense army on the mountain road, he didn't have time to think about it, and said to Zhang Xuan urgently: "Get on the boat quickly!" ”

Zhang Xuan jumped onto the big boat, the boatman swayed the boat, the big boat headed towards the center of the river, the big boat of the Yang family took a step ahead, just dozens of steps ahead, and the two big boats headed east one after the other.

As soon as the boat left, Yuwenshu led 10,000 elite Sui troops to rush down from the mountain road, instantly crowding the riverside, Yuwenshu came one step late, and saw Yang Xuangan's big boat go away, he was so angry that he slammed his helmet on the ground.

At this time, dozens of soldiers came out of the woods carrying money and food, and when they looked up and saw the Sui army, they immediately shouted in fright, "The officers and soldiers are here!" ”

They threw down the money and food and turned around and fled, Yuwen Shu gritted his teeth with hatred, and said to the second Taibao Shang master and apprentice: "You take 3,000 troops to kill it, kill everyone, and leave no one!" ”

"Obey!"

Master Shang clasped his fists and saluted, turned around and ran to lead the troops, Yuwenshu looked at Yang Xuangan's ship again, and said coldly: "Yang Xuangan, I think you can escape there!" ”

He waved his hand, "The rest of the soldiers will chase me along the river, and we must chase Yang Xuangan!" ”

Yuwenshu rushed out on horseback, and thousands of Sui soldiers turned around one after another and followed Yuwenshu along the riverside path to the east.

At the same time, the nine black-clothed men who were originally ambushed on the opposite bank also chased along the path on the other side, closely following Yang Xuangan's big boat.

．．．．．．．．

In the following thirty miles away, neither Yuwenshu nor the black-clothed man on the other side had a chance to catch up with Yang Xuangan's big ship, and when he was about to reach Luonan County, the opportunity finally came.

Located at the junction of Shangluo County and Hongnong County, Luonan County is a distribution place for medicinal herbs and furs, and a large number of medicinal materials and furs are transported from the mountainous areas to be traded in Luonan County and transported to Luoyang.

A few large merchants from Luoyang set up shop here, they had their own fleets, and there were docks built on both sides of the Luoshui River.

In addition, Luonan County is also an important ferry port, from which merchants from the north and south take boats to the other side.

It is for these two reasons that the docks in Luonan County are full of boats of all sizes.

Although Yang Xuangan let Zhang Xuan get on the boat, he was not interested in Yang Qi, and he did not ask Zhang Xuan what important information Yang Qi wanted to give him.

Yang Xuangan left Zhang Xuan aside, he stood at the bow of the boat with his hands in his hands, looking at the water in front of him worriedly, the other boat of the Yang family had already sailed away, and even the shadow of the boat could not be seen, they did not have any burden, they just wanted to stay away from Yang Xuangan's troubled water as soon as possible, and everyone rowed and sailed with all their might.

But Yang Xuangan did not allow the boatman to go fast, he seemed very cautious and hesitated, whether he should abandon the boat and go ashore.

Zhang Xuan sat on the deck only a few feet away from Yang Xuangan, holding a horizontal knife in his hand, silently watching Yang Xuangan's tall and majestic back.

He still clearly remembered the superb martial arts shown by Yang Xuangan a few months ago, the kind of impermeable lance method, thousands of arrows could not be shot into his side, and the kind of courage that was improper, the kind of violence that killed thousands of people in the wild, if there was no comparison of Yuwen Chengdu, he almost thought that Yang Xuangan was the number one fierce general in the world.

If he assassinated Yang Xuangan now, how sure would he be that he would succeed? Zhang Xuan has no bottom in his heart.

But he knows one thing very clearly, the reason why he has not met an opponent until now, and he has won a hundred battles, is not that he is too strong, but that the opponent is too weak.

He is far inferior to Wang Bodang, and may he be the opponent of Yang Xuangan, a fierce general?

Zhang Xuan slowly put the war knife back again, and temporarily let go of the idea of sneaking up on Yang Xuangan in his heart.

"What's your name?" Yang Xuan asked coldly.

He didn't look back, but he knew that Jang Hyun was watching his back.

Zhang Xuan secretly shouted that he was glad, it turned out that Yang Xuangan had been secretly observing himself, and he hurriedly said: "Under Zhang Xuan!" ”

"Is it the same as me?" Yang Xuangan asked again.

"Nope! No! There is also a gold side. ”

"Gold is a sword, does it mean to add a blade to Xuan?"

Yang Xuangan suddenly turned his head and looked at him sharply, "Are you here to assassinate me?" ”

Zhang Xuan's heart jumped violently, he never thought that his name still had the meaning of assassinating Yang Xuangan.

But the shock in his heart was not revealed, and he smiled slightly: "Yang Shangshu is joking!" The name was given by his parents since he was a child, how could there be any meaning of assassinating Shangshu? Besides, my Hyun means the frame of the Tuoding, and it has nothing to do with the blade. ”

Yang Xuangan stared at him for a moment, his gaze softened again, and said with a smile: "I'm just joking with you, don't mind." ”

"I know!"

Zhang Xuan felt that his vest was a little wet, he restrained the tension in his heart, and said in a low voice: "Master is willing to help Yang Shangshu, he hopes that Shangshu can go to Luoyang." ”

Yang Xuangan shook his head and let out a long sigh, "He can't help me, no one can help me now, only the sky can help me, but it seems that even the sky can't be relied on now." ”

His eyes were fixed on the riverbank, Zhang Xuan looked at the riverbank, and saw that the soldiers of the Sui army were rushing along the riverbank, and dozens of large ships were moored in front of him, and the Sui army had already begun to get on the boats.

Yang Xuangan shouted to the soldiers: "The ship is on the opposite shore, and we are ready to abandon the ship and go ashore." ”

At this moment, the boatman, who was holding the boat, let out a terrible scream, and saw a short arrow stuck in his neck and plunged into the water.

As soon as everyone turned around, they found that a big ship was rapidly approaching them, and there were more than a dozen black-clothed people standing on the boat, nine men and three women, led by a bearded man with a bearded face, holding a double halberd, and staring at Yang Xuangan coldly.

"Xuanwu Fire Phoenix!"

Yang Xuan exclaimed, his face turning pale.

Zhang Xuan's eyes also slowly narrowed, and he recognized the figure of one of the women, although she was masked, Zhang Xuan was very impressed by her, it was the woman who killed Yang Qi.

She is likely to expose that Yang Qi is dead, so will Yang Xuangan doubt herself.......

Zhang Xuan slowly tightened his grip on the hilt, and the corner of his eye shot at Yang Xuangan's back like an arrow.
