The next day, when the sky was just dawning, a huge group of men and horses appeared in the city of Xiama Pass and marched towards the city gate. Wu Zheng led a team of brocade-clothed guards to ride in front, followed by seven luxury carriages, the king of Zhenxi, Wang Junshi and a family general sat in the first carriage, the rest of the family members and a few Wenchen sat in the back carriage, forty or fifty armed soldiers followed behind the carriage, and then eight large carriages full of goods, one of which was covered with a thick black cloth, I don't know what it contained. At the back were a group of people who looked like housekeepers, maids, and maids.

A team of men and horses came to the city gate, Wu Zheng took out the handwritten handwriting of the king of Zhenxi, and asked the soldiers defending the city to open the city gate immediately and let the team out of the city. Because it was a wartime situation, the soldiers definitely did not dare to open the door at will, and immediately reported to Li Zhenshan, the general who was on duty at the city gate that night.

After a while, Li Zhenshan, escorted by several guards, came to the city gate to inquire about the situation.

Seeing General Li Zhenshan coming, Wu Zheng said to him: "General Li, please open the city gate quickly, the king of Zhenxi has important business, and if he wants to leave the city immediately, there must be no mistake." ”

Li Zhenshan heard that it was the king of Zhenxi who was going out of the city, he couldn't believe it, he turned his head to look at the convoy behind, and saw that in a carriage in front of him, the personal general of the king of Zhenxi was waving to him.

Li Zhenshan immediately walked forward, came to the carriage and looked inside, and sure enough, the king of Zhenxi was sitting in the carriage, and immediately stepped forward to pay respects.

The king of Zhenxi motioned for General Li to come close to listen to the order, and he lowered his voice and told General Li that he was preparing to secretly go out of the city to negotiate an armistice with Tufan, and asked him to open the door and let him go quickly, and he must keep it secret and not publicize it.

After receiving the order, Li Zhenshan did not dare to slack off, and immediately asked the soldiers to open the door and let them go. Seeing a group of men and horses leaving the city one after another, Li Zhenshan was still standing in a daze, he couldn't figure out what the king of Zhenxi was going out of the city for at this time, and was he really going to negotiate peace with Tufan? With such a large group of men and horses, and even his family and supplies, was this still a "secret trip"? Could it be that the king of Zhenxi was afraid that the city would not be safe, so he fled from the battle? But the outside of the city was already heavily surrounded by the Tufan army, how could he escape? He really couldn't understand it.

Li Zhenshan didn't notice that among the soldiers who went to open the city gate, one of the soldiers had quietly followed the team out of the city, and this person was Chen Gengsheng.

It turned out that after Chen Gengsheng came to the city gate last night, he wanted to ask the soldiers guarding the city where King Yuwen was, but he didn't even know how many people asked, saying that he hadn't seen him in the afternoon.

It happened that a sergeant guard officer happened to be on the side when King Yuwen met with Chen Gengsheng that day, and he recognized Chen Gengsheng and enthusiastically stepped forward to ask him what he was doing to find King Yuwen.

Chen Gengsheng said that King Yuwen asked him to help the troops defend the city earlier yesterday, and he came to report today. The sergeant guard officer said that this is a trivial matter, do you still need to find King Yuwen, you can help me here.

Chen Gengsheng immediately agreed. After the sergeant guard officer asked Chen Gengsheng to immediately find a set of soldier's clothes for him to change into, he arranged him in the team guarding the city gate.

Not long after Chen Gengsheng took up his post, Wu Zheng came over with a team of people, Chen Gengsheng saw it very clearly, the leader was the person who led the team to break into King Yuwen's mansion at night, he thought at that time, since this person dared to break into King Yuwen's private house at night, it must have been controlled by King Yuwen in advance, and only by following him could it be possible to find out the whereabouts of King Yuwen and the purpose of their trip.

After opening the city gate, when he saw that a large group of people were about to leave the city, Chen Gengsheng took advantage of the unpreparedness and sneaked into a group of servants and servants at the back of the team, and followed the team out of the city.

After the team left the city for some distance, Chen Gengsheng walked to the front of the family line, shouting loudly for the family members and servants to go faster, while directing the team to keep it neat. The soldiers in the Zhenxi Wang's guard in front thought that he was a soldier who was transferred from the army by the Zhenxi King to manage and supervise the Jiading team, and they didn't care.

Chen Gengsheng followed the procession, and when he looked at the carriages full of goods in front of him, he found that one of the carriages covered with black cloth was a little strange, this carriage seemed to be very light and fluttering in the process, whether it was from the driving state or from the indentations on the ground, it looked like an empty car. But if it was an empty car, why was it covered with a black cloth, which made Chen Gengsheng very curious.

When Chen Gengsheng came to the carriage, he saw that the handlebar of the carriage was dozing off in the carriage. He stepped forward and knocked heavily on the wheel with the spear in his hand, and the handlebar immediately woke up from his sleep, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that it was a military master calling himself, so he quickly nodded to the military master with a smile, and regained his spirit to drive the carriage.

Chen Gengsheng jumped into the carriage and sat side by side with the handlebar type, and he asked the handlebar type: "What's the matter? I fought with my mother-in-law last night, look at you like a gelding." ”

"Hey, hey. The handlebar smiled honestly and said, "The military master said that I laughed, I have been on the road for a few days, and I called out of the car in the middle of the night last night, do you say that you can not be sleepy?"

"Oh, you're not from Xiamaguan, where did you come from?"

"I came from the capital, and I first heard that there was a war here, and I didn't dare to come to Ha, but then I said that I would follow the imperial envoy and not fight, and I added a lot of silver before I agreed. With a hand-shaken hand and a whip gently on the horse in front of him, he continued: "Alas, there is no way, it is not easy to beg for food." ”

"Oh, why did I let you go back with an empty car after bringing you all the way here, so that it wouldn't deduct your wages?" asked Chen Gengsheng pretending to be worried.

"Hey, hey, hey. The handlebar smiled stupidly and didn't answer, and after a while, he leaned closer to Chen Gengsheng's ear and whispered: "My car is loaded with things, I saw them carry a dead man on the car last night." ”

"A dead man?!" Chen Gengsheng was suddenly shocked in his heart! He thought to himself, could it be that King Yuwen had already been killed by them? Is this car really carrying King Yuwen? This information had a great impact on Chen Gengsheng, and he tried hard to control himself before he gradually calmed down.

As he spoke, the team had already arrived at the place where the Tufan army was stationed, and at this time the sky had gradually brightened, and a large group of men and horses could be seen in front of them waiting in the distance, which was the surrender force sent by Tufan.

After Deyong decided to accept the surrender of King Zhenxi, he was already preparing to move back to the court. He sent a marquis named Dadan Zhenta to lead 5,000 men and horses to accept the surrender of the king of Zhenxi, and he really didn't want to see Yuwen Haotian again.
