Chapter 1373

Chen Gong's words sparked a glimmer of hope for everyone present, but Wei Xu's words dashed everyone's hope.

"How can we leave the Tang army smoothly?"

"Alas..."

When they heard the speech, they all sighed. Yes, now nearly 100000 Tang troops are outside Jinyang city. It is almost impossible to leave without being aware of them. The most important thing is that they must take a lot of family members to leave, otherwise even if the army leaves Jinyang City, it will not run far, and the soldiers will mutiny.

"If you really want to leave, unless we can go to heaven and earth." Lu Yi sighed; The tone is full of reluctance and loss.

"Otherwise, just choose elite people to escort the queen and Princess out of the siege, as for others..." after considering for a moment, Wei Xuzhong was unwilling and said;

"Yes, leave, daughter. You must leave. Fengxian has no daughter. You must not fall into the hands of Tang Jun." Suddenly, everyone was frightened by Yan's roar.

"Tunnel!" Yan also realized that his voice was too loud, so he whispered, "I told you earlier that there is a tunnel in the palace."

"Really?" Hearing the speech, the three asked in unison;

Yan nodded: "Fengxian said that the palace was originally expanded from the largest haozhai in Jinyang city. Later, Fengxian inadvertently found a secret Road, and the entrance was behind Fengxian's bedroom."

Yan's words surprised all three people. Unexpectedly, the opportunity they couldn't think of was close at hand. Chen Gong immediately asked, "does the queen confirm that this secret way is still there?"

Yan Shi shook his head: "this matter was only told by Fengxian once without personal confirmation. If you want to come to Fengxian, you should not deceive me."

"In this case, the matter needs to be confirmed before making arrangements. General Wei, please arrange personnel to confirm. If there is no problem, we will discuss how to make subsequent arrangements." Chen Gong thought and turned to Wei Xu;

"Rest assured, I will go to confirm this in person." After that, Wei Xu turned and left the harem, and the other three followed and went towards Lv Bu's bedroom.

Under the guidance of Yan, several people soon found the entrance of the secret way in the Lv Bu sleeping palace. However, Wei Xu didn't go to explore in person after all, but sent several confidants to enter the secret way, and the four of them discussed leaving in the palace.

In less than an hour, the soldiers who explored the secret road returned to the palace again and confirmed that the exit of the secret road was indeed outside Jinyang City, located in a valley of Longshan. What's more, to everyone's surprise, there was a secret camp in the valley. Because they had no order, they didn't enter rashly, but just took a look outside quietly, But it is said that the neighing of war horses can be heard occasionally.

The news made several people feel refreshed. It seems that this place is indeed a retreat prepared by the former king.

Now that they got the exact news, several people also discussed several evacuation plans within this time. Soon, several people selected the most suitable scheme from the negotiated scheme and began to implement it.

Soon, the king's orders came from the palace. First, officials and generals with more than five grades in Jinyang city were recruited into the palace. Under the arrangement of Chen palace and Wei Xu, most officials and generals worshipped LV Lingqi. As for those who didn't want to, LV Lingqi didn't embarrass them, but ordered them to be detained in one palace, He was not killed on the spot.

Soon, almost the whole city of Jinyang moved. The families of officials and generals were led into the palace, and then the important items of government offices and Treasuries outside the palace were sent into the palace. Not only that, senior talents and their families in several official workshops were also recruited into the palace.

The movement in Jinyang city was also learned by the Tang army outside the city. However, although the city was noisy, the Zhao army on duty at the head of the city did not slacken at all. Even Wei Xu appeared at the head of the city several times, which made the Tang army outside the city not find any abnormality.

Although there are also spies from the shadow guard of the state of Tang in the city, when they saw the action of the state of Zhao, they thought it was the people in the Chen palace who were ready to recruit important personnel into the palace and guard the palace city. They didn't think they were going to escape from the secret road in the palace.

Just when the Tang army didn't know whether to learn or not, the personnel and materials in the king's palace of the state of Zhao were quickly transferred to the valley deep in Longshan. What LV Lingqi didn't expect was that the secret camp in the valley was so well prepared.

LV Lingqi stood at the gate of the camp and looked at the last batch of soldiers coming in. Her eyes were full of loss, helplessness and bitterness. Only four thousand of the five thousand most elite soldiers in Jinyang city came out, including one thousand Bingzhou wolf cavalry, two thousand forbidden guards and one thousand ordinary soldiers.

Another thousand soldiers were left in the city and handed over to the commander of Chen Xuan, the second son of Chen palace. In addition, there were five thousand new soldiers under the command of Zhang Wei, the second son of Zhang Liao. As the last force to defend the city, they tried to delay the time of being evacuated by the Tang army and buy time for most people to evacuate.

The reason for this arrangement is also a helpless move. Chen Gong's mother is too old to be suitable for long-distance escape, and the old man also hopes to have the opportunity to return to his hometown, so Chen Gong leaves his second son Chen Xuan behind, and then he leads the army to surrender.

Not only Chen Gong's old mother, but also some old, weak, sick and disabled officials, generals and soldiers who fled together. Originally, LV Lingqi disagreed. She was afraid that the king of Tang would vent her anger on these people, but Chen Gong was sure that the king of Tang would never embarrass these relatives and relatives. Considering the inconvenience of escaping, In the end, many people left the old and weak at home.

In addition to the 4000 elite who eventually fled with LV Lingqi, there were only nearly 10000 officials, generals and their families, as well as all kinds of talents and their families.

"Minister of state, how long has the herald left?" LV Lingqi looked at Jinyang city in the East and asked Chen Gong a word without looking back.

"Tell your Lord that it has been four or five hours since the messenger left." Chen Gong bowed and replied;

LV Lingqi and Chen Gong were the first to leave from the secret road. After arriving at the secret camp, LV Lingqi immediately arranged ten messenger soldiers to ride on the war horses in the camp and detour to Lishi, Jiexiu and lengquanguan.

The garrison of Lishi is Chen Yi, the eldest son of Chen palace, while the chief officer of Jiexiu City is Xu Ji, the son of Xu Si, and the chief General of lengquanguan is Zhang Quan, the son of Zhang Yang. These people are all loyal to the state of Zhao. LV Lingqi can't give them up. Moreover, they still have nearly 10000 troops in their hands. LV Lingqi hopes that they can bring at least 5000 or 6000 people to join him. In this way, At that time, we will have more than 10000 troops in our hands, which is very important for the follow-up development.
