Something is wrong!

So far, all the steps on the way to retreat have been carried out according to their expectations. It is impossible for the Duke of Zhenguo and the imperial court to arrange troops and horses outside the city for no reason. Even Chang He, who has never participated in the plan, knows this!
But right now, he could already hear the sound of horseshoes like a tide!

What went wrong?
"what should we do?"

Both Zhang Yun and Yang Xie cast their gazes on him, and then they looked at each other, then retracted their posture, keeping calm and sitting upright.

What Chang He said was trembling: "There is only one post road out of the city. In the best case, they have other missions and just happened to bump into us. In the worst case, then we were exposed in advance and were caught They're blocking the way!"

"But how could it be exposed? Obviously there was no flaw at all before! Besides, we were only a moment away from being interrogated, and it is impossible for Lord Zhen to deploy so quickly..."

"you shut up!"

Zhang Yun yelled sharply, and the veins on his forehead popped up.

Then he leaned over the car window and looked out, only to see dust rushing towards him like waves in the distance!

"This is really... where is the front?!"

He stopped Chang He, but asked the same question on his own.

"That's our next stop, Nanjiao Town!"

"Nanjiao..." He murmured, and then his eyes flashed brightly: "The secret road to the east of the Zhang family leads to the south gate!"

"That's right!" Yang Xie's eyes sparkled, "If they find this secret passage and reach the south gate from the exit, they can rush ahead of us to inform the guards at the gate to check out those who leave the city, and then follow them out.

"Although we have no flaws, but it is almost dawn at this moment, and they also expected that we will not delay the time to leave the city, so when we return at this time, they will come to surround you and me!

"What's more, the exit inside the South City Gate has another channel to go out of the city directly!"

It has been [-] or [-] years since their initial planning. Even if they really brought their plan to the point of treason and usurpation, it has been [-] or [-] years. This time span is enough for them to arrange a strict and comprehensive escape in the capital. The passage, which naturally includes the problem of how they will get out of the city if the city gate is closed.

So they dug a secret passage inside the city gate that could lead to the outside of the city wall, but because there was a moat outside the city wall, they could only go by water, and it was not suitable for a large number of people.This is exactly why they chose to come out of the city gate openly and aboveboard this time.

But if Duke Zhen's people tracked down here, they can be sure that this must be the main route for their retreat, and they will focus on hunting!

Zhang Yun originally had full confidence in the secret road located in the Zhang Mansion, thinking that it would never be found, and even if he found it, he would never be able to find the right direction so quickly, let alone activate the machine so quickly to catch up!

He straightened his body and looked at the dust cloud that was getting closer, feeling nervous and in danger, like a frightened bird.

"Half of us are still around, if we fight with them, what are our chances of winning?"

"Half and half." Yang Xie said in a deep voice, "they have a lot of people, but ours are all elite soldiers who have been secretly trained for many years. If we face it directly, we can have half the chance. But right now, there is no other way but to face it, right? ?”

"Then hurry up!"

Zhang Yun was unambiguous, "Drive over as usual, let them prepare, if the situation is not right, break out immediately!"

Chang He had seen the skills of some of the elite soldiers around Yang Xie, which was enough to make people dumbfounded. Seeing that the elite soldiers hiding in all directions immediately responded with whistles, several carriages were tightly surrounded by invisible shadows, guarding and continuing. As he rushed forward, he immediately made up his mind and hugged his burden tightly.

Zhang Yun glanced at his bag, sat down suddenly, and said in a serious voice: "In the bag is the tiger talisman that your father gave you?"

Chang He looked up instantly, but was stared at by his eagle eyes and did not answer.

Zhang Yun stretched out his hand: "You should hand it over."

Such him made Chang He's heart tremble, and he couldn't help turning his head to look at Yang Xie.

Although his mother died at the hands of Yang Xie, compared to Zhang Yun, he somehow felt that Yang Xie was more trustworthy.

Yang Xie also frowned and sat down: "Han Mo's trip to Cangzhou may not be just to check on the refugees, I guess the palace already knows about the leftover tiger talisman, as long as they summon the resident general to check, they will soon know where the tiger talisman came from.

"If the Tiger Talisman in your hand can't work before then, it will also become a waste by then."

Chang He trembled.

He knew what Yang Xie said was reasonable, but without this tiger talisman, he would no longer be of any value.

He still needs it to save his life!

Besides, if the Tiger Talisman was really not that important, why did they ask him for it?
He tightened his grip on the bag: "I hid the tiger talisman tightly, so it's inconvenient to take it. I'll give it to you when I get to the place where I'm staying."

After passing the current hurdle and reaching the foothold, he can try to escape again, these are a bunch of lunatics, he won't be with them anymore!

Zhang Yun looked at him deeply, and took a long time to look away.

The moment he turned his face away, a ray of light just hit his eyes, and the dazzling light made Chang He suffocate for no reason...

Su Wei rode behind Zhen Guogong and Dou Yin, and drove straight to the city gate.

The direction of the secret passage made them bet right. Not long after the third door opened, the soldiers who entered the passage sent back news that the exit of the passage was under the south gate, and another waterway leading to the moat was discovered!

Both Su Luo and Zhen Guogong believed that Zhang Yun and the others would not hide from the waterway in broad daylight, so they immediately issued orders to the imperial guards under the east and west gates, and at the same time went south to encircle the south gate.

Duke Zhen didn't hesitate anymore, and immediately summoned troops to the south city to investigate the secret passage under the city gate.

Su Wei proposed to follow, but Zhen Guogong resolutely agreed. After all, she had even experienced the battle when Fang Mei and Chang Wei were captured, and these things are no longer a problem. There is Yang Xie who is proficient in mechanics, how could Su Wei not go?
Xie Yun didn't follow because she wanted to see Su Shou.

On the way, Dou Yin said: "Miss Su, Mrs. Su told me something before I came out."

Su Luo asked, "Is it important?"

Dou Yin paused, smiled and shook his head. "It doesn't matter, as long as the girl is here."

"Then talk about it later."

Su Luo has no time for him to grow up, at this moment, she only hopes that there is still time to make up for it!

"Report—the two guards at the east and west gates have arrived ten miles away from the moat, and are intercepting a few official cars that have just left the city!"

As soon as he arrived at the city gate, the guards came to report.

Duke Zhen's expression turned serious: "What kind of official car?"

"It's the official car that claims to be going to Liangjiang from the household department. The official is young, and the road citations are complete. But when the carriage he was riding in was checked, it was found that there was a weapon hidden on the roof!"

arms? !
Before Su Luo could react, Duke Zhen had already turned his horse's head around: "Get out of the city!"
