At that moment, after Lord Pan discussed the details with Tianci, he ordered Captain Chu to select twenty soldiers with superb martial arts, change into civilian clothes, and follow Tianci's dispatch, and set to start acting that night.

Tianci and Chu Wei were ordered to go down and prepare. Here, Lord Pan summoned the generals of the three armies to dispatch soldiers and horses, and ordered Chen Su and Ma Jin to lead 20,000 soldiers and horses each, with the rank of each person, and the horses picked up the bells, and before midnight, they quietly ambushed the left and right sides outside the city of Xiamaguan, and after seeing the signal in the city, they led the troops into the city. Only 2,000 men and horses were left in Tongyuan City, and the 4,000 local defenders of Chu Duwei were left to do a good job in the defense of the city. After taking the Xiama Pass, Master Pan led the remaining 2,000 troops into the city to take over, and Chen Su led his 20,000 soldiers and horses back to Tongyuan County to garrison.

After the arrangements were made, the generals took their orders and went back to prepare.

That night, Tianci changed into black clothes and set off with the twenty strong men sent by the captain of Nachu to the front of the military prison camp.

Tianci led the five-man camp to lay an ambush in front of the camp, and ordered the other fifteen people to arrange three carriages to meet them outside the gate behind the prison camp.

Tianci waited in ambush in front of the door for a while, and saw that the guard had changed in front of the prison door. Tianci led the five people straight to the gate.

When Tianci and the others came to the gate, the sentry was treated as nothing, and a few people were allowed to enter.

According to the drawings provided by Lord Chu, Tianci successfully found the door of the death row where Zhao Jian was held.

After smashing the door lock with a hammer, he woke up Zhao Jian, who was still asleep. Zhao Jian turned over and sat up, and when he saw that it was a godsend coming in, he couldn't help but be surprised and happy.

"Brother Zhao, you have suffered, and my little brother has come to save you. Tianci entered the cell and held Zhao Jian's shoulders and said.

"Thank you brother for risking death to save me, I don't thank you for my kindness, and I will serve my brother's life and death in the future. Zhao Jian clenched his fists and said, "Who are these brothers?"

"It's all sent by Lord Chu, my own people, and then I will send you back to Xiama Pass. ”

Without further ado, Zhao Jian came out of the cell with Tianci and others, and was very vigilant all the way, lightly in case someone found out. But when he saw that the godsend was striding forward, as if he had entered a no-man's land, he carefully reminded: "Brother be careful, and meet him with a defensive guard." ”

Tianci said: "Don't worry, you can rest assured, just follow me, no one dares to stop you and me." ”

Walking out of the cell all the way, Zhao Jian found that there were really no jailers or guards, and the usual sentry seemed to be hiding from them.

The seven men climbed out of the back wall and saw three wagons and a group of people waiting outside. After he and Zhao Jian and a few others got into a carriage, he ordered someone to take the other two carriages outside the city to wait.

Tianci ordered the carriage to drive towards the palace of the imperial envoy Pan, Zhao Jian was puzzled and asked, "Why am I waiting to go here?"

Tianci smiled and said: "Brother Zhao is going back to the Western Regions to restore his life, and the younger brother should have a big gift to give him, so that Brother Tai can go back to take credit and ask for a reward, let's go and get a big gift." ”

Zhao Jian was confused when he heard it, he didn't know what a big gift was, and he didn't want to ask more.

After the group came to the backyard of the Shuai Mansion by car, God ordered the five people to wait here to watch the wind, and then took out two sharp swords, handed one of them to Zhao Jian, and asked him to follow him over the wall and enter the Shuai Mansion.

The two of them walked around and around, and when they came to a room, they saw that the room was brightly lit, and a figure in the room was pacing back and forth.

The two came to the window, and Tianci and Zhao Jian poked a small hole in the window paper and looked inside.

Zhao Jian looked at it, it was amazing, isn't this the defense envoy of the imperial court, Pan Tianshou Pan. I saw him holding a book in the room, pacing while flipping through it, looking thoughtful.

Tianci whispered to Zhao Jian: "You wait here, and wait for me to go in and get his head with you." ”

Zhao Jian was worried about fraud, and besides, Pan Tianshou's martial arts were also good, and it was difficult to subdue easily, so he was about to hold Tianci and let him slow down, but he saw that Tianci had already stood up and entered through the window.

Lord Pan was taken aback when he saw someone breaking into the room, and shouted: "Bold thief, dare to trespass into the Shuai Mansion." With that, he threw the book in his hand at Tianci, and then dodged into a side room, and Tianci followed with a sword.

When Master Pan entered the house, he saw Tianci coming in, so he turned around and pointed to a package on the desk and said, "The head is here, you quickly take it and go to the enemy camp." ”

Tianci glanced at the package and said, "There is no blood on this skull, how can it be taken seriously, it will arouse his suspicion." ”

Pan Tianshou patted his head when he heard this, and said, "Alas, if you don't say it, you forget about it, what should you do now?"

Tianci smiled and said, "Then I have to borrow the adult's head first." After finishing speaking, the knife fell, and a cold light flashed, but unfortunately before Master Pan understood what was going on, the head fell from his neck to the ground.

That Zhao Jian was waiting nervously outside the room, not knowing what to do for a while, but saw that Tianci had come out of the door, holding a package in one hand and a human head in the other, still dripping blood.

Zhao Jian took a closer look, and the head was the head of Master Pan Tianshou Pan, and his eyes were still wide open, looking like he was dead. Zhao Jian was surprised and delighted at the moment.

The two climbed out of the courtyard wall and came to the place where they met. Heaven ordered the person to wrap the head and put it away, and handed over another package to the Chu Mansion to hand over to Lord Chu.

Then several people drove to the outside of the city, and after meeting with the two carriages outside the city, the troika lined up and galloped towards the Western Regions Fortress. Along the way, Tianci explained the situation to Zhao Jian and taught him how to report to the king of Zhenxi.

When everyone came to the city gate, Zhao Jian stepped forward to announce the password to open the city gate and let everyone enter. Heaven ordered the entourage to wait at the gate of the city, and then drove straight to the palace of Zhenxi with Zhao Jian.

When he came to the palace, he informed the guards that there was an urgent military matter to report to the king. After a while, the king of Zhenxi summoned him by herald.

The king of Zhenxi heard rumors that the imperial court would send a large army to encircle and suppress the Western Regions, and sent spies out to investigate everywhere, but he had not yet received accurate information. Hearing that Zhao Jian came back to report, he immediately ordered him to be summoned.

Zhao Jian and Tianci entered the palace and came to the council hall, and after paying homage to the king, Zhao Jian reported and said: "Receiving the king's order, I will investigate the enemy situation in Tongyuan City. Through his brother-in-law Zhang Tianci, he got acquainted with Zhao Weixian, the defense commander of Tongyuan City. Lord Zhao has never been accustomed to the Korean and Chinese armies doing evil in Tongyuan, and he hates the envoy of Pan even more. The day before yesterday, the little son of the Pan family actually molested Miss Chu in public, and imprisoned her under the pretext of being imprisoned. Lord Chu then expressed to me that he was willing to rebel, take refuge in the king of Zhenxi, and support the imperial court. So he and my brother-in-law designed to take down the head of Pan Tianshou and came to offer it to the king. With that, he opened the package in his hand and presented it.

When the king of Zhenxi saw that it was indeed the head of Pan Yu's envoy, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and asked, "Where is the Chu Duwei now?"

"Lord Chu and my brother-in-law Zhang Tianci have already devised a plan to trick the army in Tongyuan City into an ambush outside the city of Xiamaguan. Later, when we give the signal, we will attack the city. Please ask the king to immediately arrange troops and horses, set up an ambush, and then you can annihilate all the invading enemies in this battle. Captain Chu has led the soldiers of the city to control all the military defenses in Tongyuan City, and he is waiting for the king of Zhenxi to send troops to take the city. ”

After hearing this, King Zhenxi lowered his head and pondered, as if he was hesitating.

Seeing this, Zhang Tianze stepped forward and said, "Little Zhang Tianci, dare to speak to the king." ”

"You say. King Zhenxi said.

"Now that the enemy army is in the city, whether the king attacks or not, they will attack the city. Even if the army in Tongyuan City did not attack, the imperial court had sent heavy troops to encircle and suppress the Western Regions, and there was no intention of appeasing the king. Xiama Pass is an important pass in the Western Regions, this city, the Western Regions are lost, and the king will retreat when the boundary is not able to retreat, and there is no way to defend it, and it is too late to regret it. The king might as well take this opportunity to annihilate the Tongyuan army, take Tongyuan City directly, prevent and control it in Tongyuan City, and provide backup support under the Maguan Pass. ”

When the king of Zhenxi heard these words, he suddenly opened his cottage and said with great joy: "This is very true, this king almost made a mistake. It is rare for this young boy to have such courage at such a young age, and he will surely become a great weapon in the future. "After that, immediately send an order to the three armies, and listen to the order in front of the tent.
