"My lord, it's not good—" In the Yuxing City Prime Minister's Mansion, the soldiers guarding hurriedly ran back to the main hall to report to the Wuluo Belt Todo.

Chang Yuchun took advantage of the internal and external cooperation between the general Rongwu, and the main force quickly entered the city of Yuxing, and the place of the city tower suddenly burst into flames, and the sound of fighting and screaming continued, and the Wuluo belt Todo, who was still sleeping in the prime minister's mansion, was completely unknown.

Seeing the guards hurriedly coming, Wuluo took Toduo to know that something was wrong, so he hurriedly sorted out his clothes, and then asked urgently: "What happened, why is it so noisy outside the door?"

The guard bowed down and said, "Oh no, my lord, Chang Yuchun's troops are coming into the city." The defenders in the city are still desperately resisting, but I'm afraid they won't last long......"

"What about General Rongwu?" Wuluo took Todo to think of Rongwu guarding the city at this time, so he asked again, "Isn't he ordered to guard the city tower, why would the defenders in the city be so vulnerable that they directly let Chang Yuchun's people kill into the city?"

"General Rongwu has rebelled...... the guard said with some slurification, "it's General Rongwu...... It was the gate of the city that he ordered to be opened, and the army that often met spring came into the city......"

When the Ullo took Todo to hear the news, he immediately became furious. He picked up the wine glass on the table, threw it heavily on the floor, and then gritted his teeth and said: "Rongwu, Rongwu, the king trusts you so much, I didn't expect you to betray the court and take refuge in Zhu Yuanzhang——"

The guard paused for a moment, and then persuaded again: "Please make a decision quickly, look at it." The enemy's target is the Prime Minister's ...... here."

"What about the cavalry vanguard?" asked the Ulo with Todo urgently, "Isn't the main cavalry unit rescued?" Defend the Prime Minister's Mansion!"

"Useless ......," said him, when a badly wounded soldier suddenly entered from outside the door, covered in blood, and saw him slowly move into the main hall with staggering steps, leaving a trailing blood mark on the floor - it seemed that he was a survivor who had fought desperately from the fierce confrontation.

Urlo took Todo to see the soldier and was a little taken aback, but then he stepped forward anyway, picked up the soldier's armor and asked, "Tell me." What the hell is going on, please, for what is it that says 'useless'?"

Due to the severe injury, it was sick and coughed twice. Then he continued: "As early as when General Rongwu first asked your lord for his life, he had already surrendered to Zhu Yuanzhang...... The reason why he took the initiative to come back and ask for his life was to transfer the elite troops of Yuxing City, and then collect the surrendered troops outside the city. He came back again and falsely reported the victory. So that we can relax our vigilance, in fact, we must cooperate with the inside and the outside, and sit in the city at night...... The vanguard of the cavalry army before Yuxing City was naturally Zhu Yuanzhang's surrender, and now coming back is just their response. Just now, the villain saw the troops of the cavalry vanguard, and they had already joined Chang Yuchun's troops and came towards the Prime Minister's Mansion together...... Come...... Here it ......."

With that, the soldier died of his injuries. The Ullo took Todo to see it, and Tigar's hands were thrown hard. The soldier's body was slammed against the threshold.

When the previous guard saw this, he hurriedly persuaded, "My lord." The enemy army is coming towards the Prime Minister's Mansion, and I ask you to sign your gear as soon as possible and evacuate Yuxing City-"

Wuluo took Todo to look at the burning city tower outside the door with unwilling eyes, and heard the screams of fighting that pierced his heart, he resolutely pulled out the Miao knife at the head of the bed, and said in a fixed voice: "The secret of the Tang Gate is mysterious, and the fate of Meng Yuan is unclear, how can this king abandon the city and leave?"

The guard thought for a moment, and then persuaded: "My lord, abandon the city and leave, but abandon a city and save your own life, so that you can make a comeback." Besides, the reinforcements of Lord Timur have already arrived from Luoyang, so you can go west first, and wait until the reinforcements arrive and return to the enemy's position, it is not too late——"

Wuluo took Todo to listen to it, thought about it carefully, and then nodded lightly and said, "It's okay, at this moment, I'm afraid I have to retreat to the west first...... Pass my order to order the defenders in the city to gather in the Yuxing Prime Minister's Mansion and desperately resist Chang Yuchun!"

"Yes, my lord—" The guard replied, then turned and left the main hall......

In the dungeon, Tang Zhan and the others were still waiting quietly. Of course, they also heard the sound of the army fighting at the gate of the city tower, and even the light of the fire at the city tower also reflected a little skylight in the dungeon, which made the four people who were already near the skylight notice......

"I really let Sister Jing say it, there are really hundreds of horses' hooves......" Li Yuru stood up a little excitedly, and couldn't help but exclaim, "It's not just the sound of horses' hooves, it seems that there is also the sound of fighting, what happened?"

"It seems that there are more than a few of us who are making trouble in Yuxing City," Lu Jing smiled slightly......

"How can there be a sound of fighting, is it ...... Got a war?" Zhao Zichuan also had some questions.

"It seems that there is a civil strife in Yuxing City, and there must be spies who have set up an ambush in Yuxing City, so that General Xu Da's troops can successfully enter the city...... Lu Jing continued.

"Hey, it's just a war, Sister Jing, how do you know that there must be spies in Yuxing City who are ambushing?" Li Yuru wondered.

Lu Jing sat up from the ground, and then continued to say with a smile: "Yuxing City is located at an important pass in Beiguan, and the terrain is difficult and dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack. When I heard the sound of horses' hooves ten miles away just now, it was only an hour's effort, and it was impossible to attack the city of the pass in an open and honest manner, and to fight the enemy at the gate of the city. The only way is to instigate the internal response in the city, induce the enemy army defending the city to relax their vigilance, and then open the city gate from the inner should to welcome the troops to enter, so I am sure that there are spies planted by Zhu Yuanzhang in Yuxing City...... Looking at this, Zhu Yuanzhang is really scheming and has a good way to lead the troops, no wonder Guo Zixing will hand over the position of leader of the rebel army to Zhu Yuanzhang......"

"But there are murders outside, and we are still in prison, how can this be good?" Tang Zhan asked worriedly.

"This is even more worry-free, and not only is it not worried, this is still a great opportunity......" Lu Jing stood up and glanced at the jailer next to him, who was also a little nervous and couldn't sit still after hearing the sound of fighting outside. continued to say softly, "It is rumored that Zhu Yuanzhang loves the people like a son, and his subordinates have invaded Yuxing City. I will not disturb the people of the city. In other words, according to the direction of the internal spies, their target will definitely be this prime minister's house. Now there must be chaos in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and we can take this opportunity to escape from here...... I have also explained to my brother and my brother before, and this time Zhu Yuanzhang's sudden attack on the city just gave us a golden opportunity, it depends on when the two of them will come......"

"It turns out that Sister Jing, you have already arranged for Brother Lu Zhao and Xiao Meng to save us. Why didn't you say it earlier?" Li Yuru complained.

"Before, it was for them to act on the opportunity, so there was a lot of risk...... "Lu Jing continued, "but this time it's really a godsend. Zhu Yuanzhang raised troops to attack the city, and took advantage of the war outside to get out, there is no better opportunity than this......"

As he was talking, the jailer in the prison was indeed as Lu Jing expected. I also panicked. They don't care about anything. Lifting the burden on his body, he ran directly to the dungeon stairs, preparing to leave the Prime Minister's Mansion. However, just as they reached the door of the staircase, they were suddenly kicked down by someone outside, and they fainted on the spot - other people took advantage of the chaos to break into the dungeon.

"Brother Lu Zhao, are they here?" Li Yuru said with some joy.

However, Lu Jing's face was not very happy, but her eyes were fixed and said, "No." If it were my brother and my brother, there would have only been two of them. But something seems wrong......"

Soon, several people walked in from the door of the dungeon, all of them carrying weapons down the stairs and walking towards the place where Tang Zhan and the others were being held. Obviously, they are not the Lu Zhao and Lu Meng that everyone expects.

Tang Zhan looked back, a little stunned, the person who came turned out to be Lao Jiu.

The person who came was none other than Lao Jiu, the staff officer of the "Tangying Society", and he was naturally followed by several brothers of the "Tangying Society".

"Old Jiu?" Lu Jingyi turned out to be a member of the "Tang Ying Society", so he asked cautiously, "There is a sudden war outside, what are you doing in the dungeon at this time, is it because of Dou Deyong's order to come and take our lives in advance?"

Lao Jiu slowly walked to the two cells of the four, and then said slowly to Lu Jing: "Miss Lu, don't misunderstand, the old body is here to save you from the ......."

"Save us?" Lu Jing asked in a rhetorical voice, "Could it be that Dou Deyong has changed his ways and is ready to let us live?"

"Don't mention him again...... Lao Jiu said in a low voice, "The old man has seen what you have done these days, and knows that you are the people of righteousness and righteousness that the old gang leader said." The old man admires your character, even in the face of strong and evil forces, you can still not change the way of justice, serve the people wholeheartedly, and risk your life to come to Yuxing City......"

Hearing Lao Jiu's words, Lu Jing was a little uncomfortable, but she still understood what Lao Jiu meant, obviously Lao Jiu was no longer in the same group as Dou Deyong.

Lao Jiu paused slightly, then turned to Tang Zhan again, and said earnestly: "What Tang Shaoxia said to the old body during the day, the old body benefited a lot and remembered it. Although Tang Shaoxia volunteered, but in the face of the predicament of his friends, Tang Shaoxia, you can still be desperate to go to the soup and fire, rather face the threat of death, but also rescue your brothers and friends, such a love and righteousness are admired in your heart!" As he spoke, Lao Jiu bowed deeply to Tang Zhan.

"Needless to say, Brother Tang Zhan is a good brother worthy of the name, let alone us, if he encounters danger, we will not ignore Brother Tang Zhan-" Zhao Zichuan added with a smile, obviously, they didn't have the previous prejudice against Lao Jiu, but regarded him as a friend who forgot his year.

Lao Jiu ordered the brother behind him to cut the chains of the cell with an axe, and then continued: "Dou Deyong learned the news of the attack on Yuxing City, and now he is fleeing in a hurry...... The old body has already decided, the old body has parted ways with him, and he is willing to take the like-minded brothers of the 'Tang Ying Club' to rescue Tang Shaoxia and your friends. Since Tang Shaoxia refused to escape for the sake of his friends during the day, and now that the old man has rescued your friend, you can leave with peace of mind, right?"

As he spoke, the ropes tied behind Tang Zhan and the others were also untied, and the four of them regained their freedom. Tang Zhan moved his muscles and bones that had not moved for a long time, and then thanked Lao Jiu: "Thank you, Lao Jiu, I know that you are doing this for us, and we are also very grateful...... However, I have unfinished business to finish before I leave......"

As he was talking, suddenly, many Mengyuan soldiers with knives poured into the door of the dungeon. I only heard the Meng Yuan soldier who broke in first, shouting loudly: "Lord Dou has an order, before leaving the Prime Minister's Mansion, you have to take the lives of the descendants of the Tang family and the rest of these people, and kill me-"

As soon as the words fell, all the soldiers rushed in and prepared to attack in the direction of Tang Zhan and the others along the stairs.

When Lu Jing saw it, she bared her teeth and said, "Hmph, it must be that Dou Deyong who wanted to cut the grass and eradicate the roots before he escaped." But he never dreamed that we had been rescued by Lao Jiu now, and it didn't take much effort to deal with these minions......"

"Kill-" The Meng Yuan soldiers shouted again, and in such a narrow cell, all the soldiers still rushed in the direction of Tang Zhan and the others desperately.

"Ahh When the soldiers at the head of the platoon saw it, they all looked back, only to see two Mengyuan soldiers waving their swords and leaping forward, taking advantage of the scattered soldiers, to raid and kill the soldiers who were about to rush into the dungeon.

"What are you two doing?" the soldier at the front of the line shouted at the two soldiers at the door.

The two Mengyuan soldiers didn't say a word, and after finishing off all the soldiers at the staircase, they took off the armor on their heads at the same time, and two familiar faces came into everyone's eyes.

"Brother Lu Zhao-" "Xiao Meng-" "Why did you two come here at this time?" Tang Zhan was here, and everyone shouted excitedly.

"There is a mole—" The leading Meng Yuan soldier noticed it, but it was too late.

Without waiting for the leading soldier to come to his senses, Tang Zhan and Zhao Zichuan took the lead, stepped up one by one, and easily leveled the few Mengyuan soldiers in the front row of the most rear, and then rounded up with Lu Zhao and Lu Meng, the two brothers on the ladder......

It turned out that when she was fighting with the Mengyuan army in the deep alley during the day, Lu Jing had already made a plan. After defeating the first few Meng Yuan soldiers who were looking for the way at the key ambush intersection, Lu Jing designed his brother and younger brother to wear the armor of the Meng Yuan soldiers and blend in with the troops. After all, their original purpose was to see Wuluo and Todo, so they were later caught by Dou Deyong, which was naturally deliberately done by Lu Jing. After everyone deliberately surrendered to the Wuluo belt Todo, Lu Zhao and Lu Meng, who pretended to be Mengyuan soldiers, pretended to take everyone's weapons, and then waited for the opportunity to take advantage of the people in the Prime Minister's Mansion to relax their vigilance, and then robbed the prison to rescue everyone and make the next step. After all, there were no names of Lu Zhao and Lu Meng on the wanted warrant before, so naturally no one would pay attention to the two brothers. It's just that they themselves may not have expected that Zhu Yuanzhang's sneak attack plan secretly helped Lu Jing's plan to be implemented in advance, and they didn't expect that Lao Jiu would actually rescue Tang Zhan and the others before them......

However, since the salvation was successful, Lu Zhao and Lu Meng returned the pear flower spear and Qiankun two sword that they had pretended to be taken into custody to Tang Zhan and the others who were saved, and said with a smile: "Here, your weapons are taken-"

Everyone took back their weapons, and the heavy stone hanging in their hearts fell down. After Zhao Zichuan saw the second sword of Qiankun, the symbol of the family, come back, he said excitedly: "Great, the second sword of Qiankun is intact......

Lu Jing walked to Lu Zhao's side, but complained a little: "Really, I didn't expect you to come here so late." You don't know what to do, if it weren't for Zhu Yuanzhang's unexpected attack on the city tonight, Lao Jiu rescued us from Lu, and tomorrow, the fool would have to make a difficult choice......"

"It's not that Sister Jing, you have to come up with such a dangerous solution, Xiao Meng and I have been waiting for the opportunity for a long time......," Lu Zhao responded.

Lao Jiu saw that everyone had been saved, so he said to everyone: "Okay, now that we are out of trouble, it is not appropriate to stay here for a long time, let's leave here quickly, maybe Chang Yuchun's army will soon come to Xiangfu." ”

However, Tang Zhan clenched the pear blossom spear that came back with his right hand, and then looked at the door of the dungeon with both eyes, and said firmly: "You guys go first, I still have family grievances, I have to go to Wuluo to take Todo to ......settle it first."

As soon as Tang Zhan said this, everyone looked at Tang Zhan's back with amazement...... (To be continued......)
