Li Wei snorted listlessly, raised his hand and pointed outside: "Insistence? How can this king insist? Listen to the surrounding movements, the Zhenjiang army has broken through the city wall, and it looks like they are about to enter the city......"

"We can break through!" Ye Rongcheng said in a firm tone: "I still have an iron horse in my hand, if I rush hard, I can give it a try!" ”

Li Wei glanced at him and said in a deep voice: "General Ye, this king doesn't have the strength to hold on anymore...... You go by yourself, break out with your brothers, go to my master to meet, and help him turn the tables...... Avenge me. ”

Ye Rongcheng was stunned when he heard this. He heard the meaning of Li Jiong's words, and the young King Jin was planning to give up. It is no wonder that in the face of a terrible opponent like Li Jiangyao, and in the face of hundreds of thousands of imposing Zhenjiang troops, whether it is to defend the city or to break through, the hope is very slim.

After being silent for a moment, Ye Rongcheng finally gave up his hand and said, "Your Highness...... That...... The end will be ......"

"Let's go," Li Wei waved his hand weakly, and said bitterly: "I'm afraid it's too late." This king stays and burns with the enemy! ”

Ye Rongcheng showed a sad expression on his face, said "Your Highness take care", and then turned around and strode away. Now the Zhenjiang army is still fighting with the defenders for the defense line of the city wall, and if the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry attacks along the city gate, there may be a chance to survive.

Looking at Ye Rongcheng's back as he walked farther and farther, Li Rong's eyes gradually narrowed, and a cunning light kept flashing in his eyes.

"Cold Mountain!"

"Humble in office. Your Highness, please! ”

"Act immediately," Li Zhihuo got up, and while taking off the armor on his body, he ordered: "Ye Rongcheng led his troops to break through, and it will definitely attract all of Li Jiangyao's attention." Take this opportunity to go out of the city through the secret passage! Fuck, let's go! ”

Li Zhi's movements were not dragged in the mud and water, just when Ye Rongcheng went to gather his soldiers and horses, ready to attack outward regardless of everything, he was already protected by his own soldiers, transferred from the secret passage of the Jin Palace's palace to a stable not far from the north city wall, and then absconded from the tunnel outside the city.

This route was set up by Lao Jianhua himself, and no one knew about it except for Li Jiong and his personal captain Leng Shan. And the letter left by Lao Jianhua to him also specifically mentioned that if Hangzhou could not hold it, he would use this road to transfer safely, save his life first, and try to make a comeback.

The reason why Li Jiong was disheartened in front of Ye Rongcheng, and even planned to stay and fight with the Zhenjiang army, was because he needed to let the other party act as a scapegoat to attract Li Jiangyao's pursuit and encirclement, so that he could calmly get out of danger.

This cold-blooded and vicious plan, if Ye Rongcheng knew about it, he didn't know how this loyal Xuanjia general would feel.

Li Jiong followed the secret passage all the way to the stable in the north of the city. However, he did not rush to find another entrance and flee outside the city, but ordered his soldiers to hide temporarily, and when it was later, the Zhenjiang army completely attacked the city, and began to besiege Ye Rongcheng, and then take advantage of the darkness to act.

At that time, there were chaos outside the city, and the line of sight was unclear, and it was very easy to jump out of danger.

Li Wei hid in the hay room, sitting on the haystack and nibbling on dry food, while pricking up his ears to listen to the movement outside. At this time, the north of Hangzhou had been broken through by the Zhenjiang army, and a large number of hoplites entered the city, pursuing and suppressing the remnants of the rebels, and at the same time advancing to the city gates of the Jin Prince's Mansion, the Governor's Mansion and other directions.

The sound of horses' hooves, footsteps, and passwords in the streets indicates that the rebel stronghold is being retaken.

Li Ji looked through the wooden grille at the height of the forage room to see that it was getting dark outside, so he shook the bread in his hand to the ground and shouted in a low voice: "It's almost, start acting!" ”

With his order, the four pro-soldiers took the lead in drilling into the secret passage and were responsible for opening the way, while Li Jiong, accompanied by Leng Shan, followed into the secret passage. Behind them, four other master guards accompanied them to cover.

The group walked cautiously through the deep passage, and after about half an hour, the flat road began to slope upward, indicating that they were getting closer and closer to the exit.

Li Ji panted and asked, "Is it reliable?" War horses are okay, right? ”

Leng Shan, who was following him closely, hurriedly responded: "Please rest assured, Your Highness." The exit is located in a small forest, surrounded by shrubs and weeds, and is very remote and hidden. However, the horses remained in the distant woods, and it is not known whether they have been found. ”

"Let's take one step at a time!" Li Wei wiped his sweat helplessly: "It's really not good, so I'll steal and rob it." If there are many wars and chaos, it should not be a big problem to engage a few lone Zhenjiang troops. ”

As he spoke, the soldiers in charge of scouting the way in front had stopped, and two of them were cooperating to push up the cover above and secretly observe outside.

Li Ji knew that the exit had arrived, and he couldn't help but feel a little nervous, and whispered to the front, "How is it, is there anyone outside?" ”

The pro-soldier at the top looked at it for a while, and whispered: "No, it's quiet all around, and it's almost dark." ”

"Good!" Li Bing was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly urged: "Hurry up, go!" ”

The soldier agreed, and together with his companions, he struggled to break through the heavy cover, and then turned over and climbed up.

Li Jiong waited in place for a while, and saw that there was no movement outside, so he dared to get out, and Leng Shan and the others followed, and then they all climbed out.

The dense forest they were in was dark and dark at this time, and the city of Hangzhou in the distance was blazing with flames and killing sounds, and a large number of Zhenjiang army troops were advancing in the direction of the city from a distance of hundreds or thousands of steps.

Li Ji sighed secretly, and was about to let Leng Shan and them go to find the horses hidden nearby in advance, but before they could say anything, a loud shout suddenly came from the surrounding dense forest, and then, countless torches lit up one after another, illuminating the entire forest as if it were daytime.

Thousands of soldiers wearing black armor, white robes on their shoulders, fast knives on their backs, and flat-ended crossbows surrounded Li Wei and the others.

Li Bing looked at these ambushes who suddenly appeared in front of him in disbelief, and was stunned on the spot for a moment, not knowing how to react. It is definitely impossible to rush hard, and it is even more futile to reflexively escape back to the tunnel. Since the other party can wait for him here in advance, it must be that the entrance to the city has already been exposed and fell under the control of the Zhenjiang army.

It's just that Li Jiong really can't understand how Li Jiangyao did the unpredictable prophet, guessed that he would break through from here, and also knew the specific location of the secret passage.

Just when Li Jiong was at a loss, most of the Zhenjiang army escorted Li Jiangyao and strode in front of Li Jiong and his guards, and beside him, he was followed by a Hu man in civilian clothes.

Li Jiangyao looked Li Zhi up and down a few times, and sneered: "Li Zhi, your movements are too slow, so I have to wait for a long time." Delayed until now, most likely because you want Ye Rongcheng to be that fool to help you attack and lure us away, right? ”

Li Ji looked around nervously and asked sharply, "How do you know that this king will go here?" ”

Li Jiangyao raised his hand and pointed to the Hu man next to him: "This is the leader of the Hangzhou Branch of the Intelligence Department of our Zhenjiang Army, from the Gezitijiang River of Qiuzi Country, your every move on weekdays can't escape his eyes." As for today's situation, let him answer your doubts. ”

Gezitijiang smiled slightly when he heard this, took two steps forward, and then shouted at Li Ji and the others: "Leng Shan, you can leave safely." Your wife, children, and parents have been brought here from Lingling, and they are waiting for you in Yuhang. ”

Hearing this, Li Bing couldn't help but be shocked, and subconsciously turned his head to look at his guard captain Leng Shan. Leng Shan didn't even look at him, walked straight to Gezitijiang, and honestly replied: "Thank you for your kindness and let my Leng family have a way to live, Leng Shan is willing to accept the legal sanctions of the imperial court." ”

Gezitijiang nodded and said with a smile: "You have abandoned the darkness and turned to the light, and the merits will be atoned, our army will no longer pursue it, go back and reunite with your family." ”

Hearing him say this, Leng Shan hurriedly thanked him again, and Gezitijiang waved his hand: "You should thank us for protecting most of us." ”

Leng Shan hurriedly saluted Li Jiangyao again: "Xie Dadu is magnanimous!" ”

Li Jiangyao smiled faintly, motioned for Leng Shan to leave first, and then looked at Li Jiong, who was full of anger: "How is it?" Is it nice to be betrayed and plotted? ”

"Li Jiangyao, you bastard!" Li Bing pulled out his sword and shouted: "Engaging in conspiracy and trickery, what kind of fucking hero is it?!" Leng Shan's parents and children have been taken hostage by you, can he not be obedient? This king is not convinced? ”

Li Jiangyao also slowly pulled out the Xingluo knife and said indifferently: "Who cares if you are convinced or not?" I only care about one thing, how did my teacher, Commander He Jingming, die at your hands? ”

Li Wei was stunned for a moment, and then smiled strangely: "Do you want to know?" This king may tell you. said that the first general of Shengtang, He Jingming is nothing more than that. His fierce blade guards were slaughtered by 3,000 soldiers and horses under my command, and he himself could not even lift his sword, so that the king was stabbed to death with a single sword. Hahaha, the Starfall Sword Method is famous all over the world, but in the end, isn't it still the same defeat in the hands of this king? ”

Knowing that he was under siege tonight, and it would be difficult to have a chance to escape, Li Jiong simply went crazy, laughed and scolded loudly, and derogated He Jingming again and again.

Li Jiangyao's eyes gradually condensed a heavy chill, and when the other party finished those crazy words, he said coldly: "Three thousand people sneaked up on two hundred Saint Tang comrades and poisoned an old man who was suffering from scabies. Li Jiong, you are alive, it is simply the greatest humiliation in this world! ”

"Come, I can't take your dog's life within three moves, let you leave!"

Li Bing raised his eyebrows: "Is this true?" ”

"I swear by the teacher's star-falling sword," Li Jiangyao stared confidently at the big enemy in front of him: "All the white-robed soldiers are witnesses!" If you can take me three times, I will let you live. ”

"Hahaha, good!" Li Zhi looked up to the sky and laughed: "Li Jiangyao, don't regret it!" ”

With that, he leaped forward, and the fierce blade of his sword stabbed straight at the opposite side.
