Zhao Jing's words dispelled Zhu Yong's arrogant thoughts, and Xue Ping also said: "Shi Le suffered a defeat in Yangcheng and is looking for someone to vent his anger on. Let's retreat first."
"We went deep into the hinterland just to contain the frontline troops. We should not go head-to-head with Shi Le."
Zhu Yong thought about it again and again and felt that what Zhao Jing and Xue Ping said made sense.
"Go, retreat!"
Zhu Yong made a decisive decision and immediately retreated with his troops and horses, continuing to plunder westward.
When Shi Le rushed to the city with his troops and horses, Zhu Yong's troops had already fled.
Cavalry General Sha Wenchen said: "Your Majesty, these are rebels who have rebelled against the country and surrendered to the enemy. I will ask to be hunted down."
Shi Le said coldly: "Pursuit? If you have the ability, go kill Long Chengen."
Sha Wenchen took a mouthful of mud and did not dare to say anything more.
Xiao Liang, the garrison of Guancheng, immediately opened the city to greet him.
"General Xiao Liang pays homage to the king."
When Shi Le saw that Xiao Liang had defended Guancheng, he happily comforted him and said, "Thank you for your hard work, General Xiao. The garrison of Guancheng is only a few thousand. It's not easy for you to defend the city."
Xiao Liang bowed and said: "As a general, you have the responsibility to defend the territory. This is your job. I dare not say that you have meritorious service."
Shi Le nodded slightly and said, "Okay, let's go into the city."
Shi Le turned around and helped Monk Kongji go inside, while Tie Yaozi and Monk Bing followed behind and walked inside together.
Xiao Liang looked at the seriously injured Kong Ji and the listless Xixia soldiers behind him, and he already guessed that Yangcheng was broken.
News that Yangcheng was besieged spread throughout Xixia. Xiao Liang's city was not far away, so he naturally knew about it.
Xiao Liang also thought about reinforcing Yangcheng, but his reason told him that the thousands of soldiers and horses in Guancheng were of little use.
It was more useful to defend Guancheng and give Shi Le a stable rear, so Xiao Liang defended Guancheng.
Now that Shi Le was defeated in Yangcheng and returned, Guancheng really worked.
The defeated soldiers slowly entered the city, and Xiao Liang just watched.
Suddenly, Xiao Liang saw three soldiers walking in with their heads lowered. The three men looked injured, but they were not walking slowly.
There were too many soldiers, so Xiao Liang just glanced at them and followed them inside without paying much attention.
These three people are pretended to be Shen Wanjin, Heifeng and Gan Xin.
The three of them wore the clothes of Xixia soldiers and followed the large army inside.
Shen Wanjin had been watching Kong Ji from a distance, looking for opportunities along the way, but Shi Le was always beside him, and Shen Wanjin did not dare to act rashly.
After entering Guancheng, the soldiers were looking for places to rest one after another. Xiao Liang took out the grain and rice in the city and distributed clean water.
The soldiers lay down in the city to rest, and the horses were tired.
Shen Wanjin and the others deliberately stayed away from the others and sat down next to the city wall.
"Master, Kong Ji has entered the General's Mansion, it will be even more difficult for us to attack."
Heifeng was a little disappointed. Logically speaking, it would be best to take action on the road.
It's a pity that Shi Le has been protecting Kong Ji and hasn't found a suitable opportunity to make a move.
But Shen Wanjin shook his head and said, "No, the opportunities are better here."
"While on the road, Shi Le was worried that Kong Ji's body wouldn't be able to bear it, so he watched closely."
"After entering Guancheng, they will relax and our chances will be greater."
Gan Xin agreed with Shen Wanjin's point of view and said: "It is really dark when it is dark under the lamp. After entering the general's mansion, Shi Le will not keep guard all the time."
Shen Wanjin nodded slightly, and several soldiers came over carrying a basket of pancakes, picked up three and threw them to Shen Wanjin.
"Brother, you look so strange. Whose soldiers are you?"
The soldier who was sharing the cake saw that Shen Wanjin and the others were strangers and asked casually.
Shen Wanjin said: "We have just joined the army not long ago, and we are not very familiar with our brothers."
The soldiers who shared the bread didn't really care, just asked and left.
Shen Wanjin gnawed on the dough and slowly observed the defense of Guancheng.
When the sky gradually darkened, Shen Wanjin and the others quietly moved to the general's mansion.
When they arrived at the backyard, the three of them quietly crossed the city wall and entered the general's mansion.
Several monk soldiers were guarding outside a room, and several military doctors came in and out, splashing out a basin of blood from time to time.
After working until very late, the military doctor came out of the room, gave instructions to the monk soldiers at the door for a while, and then walked out of the yard across the medicine box.
After the people left, the courtyard became quiet, and the monks and soldiers were tired, so they slept against the pillars at the door.
Gan Xin walked over quietly, puffing out smoke from his mouth, and the monk soldier guarding the door slowly fell down.
Shen Wanjin and Heifeng slowly followed and arrived outside the room.
It's very quiet inside.
Heifeng gently opened the door and saw Monk Kongji helping him naked, with gauze wrapped around his abdomen. The gauze was dyed red with blood. Monk Kongji was sleeping.
Long Chen's Bai Niao Chao Feng's spear skills were weird and he could use five spears at a time. Kong Ji was stabbed once and his abdomen was seriously injured.
Kong Ji's body was very weak due to blood loss and escape.
After being treated by military doctors, Kong Ji began to fall asleep.
Quietly walking to the bed, Gan Xin carefully exhaled a puff of smoke into the air.
Under the light, Shen Wanjin could clearly see Kong Ji inhaling the smoke into his nose.
After a while, Gan Xin nodded slightly and said, Heifeng and Shen Wanjin took action together, tying up Kong Ji's hands and feet.
The two of them picked up Monk Kongji and slowly walked out of the door.
When they arrived at the city wall, Heifeng carried Monk Kongji on his back. The three of them jumped over the courtyard wall, and then slowly moved towards the city wall.
Guancheng was on high alert at night, with sentries keeping an eye on the surrounding area to be on guard against a sneak attack by the Long Family Army.
Shen Wanjin waited for a while, and finally waited for an opportunity. The three of them flew out of the city wall with Kong Ji and quickly disappeared into the night.
After running dozens of miles outside Guancheng, Gan Xin led the way into an inn.
When I walked in, the innkeeper immediately came out to greet me.
"My subordinates pay their respects to the hall master."
The shopkeeper saluted respectfully, but Gan Xin ignored it and immediately said: "No one is allowed to approach a clean house."
The shopkeeper said: "There is an underground secret room in the backyard."
Gan Xin was slightly happy and said: "Lead the way!"
The shopkeeper personally led the way to the backyard of the inn and saw a thatched shed.
The shopkeeper pushed open the thatched hut, then pulled out a wooden board from under the bed, and saw a secret passage going down.
Gan Xin walked in front holding an oil lamp, Heifeng was in the middle, and Shen Wanjin followed behind.
When they arrived at the underground secret room, Heifeng carefully laid Monk Kongji down on the bed, and then took a thick iron chain and tied Monk Kongji's hands and feet.
"Go out, no one is allowed to come near without my order."
With all the equipment ready, Shen Wanjin couldn't wait to pry the secret about the Mad Lion Art from Kong Ji's mouth.
But the Mad Lion Technique is top secret, and Shen Wanjin doesn't want anyone else to know about it.
Gan Xin and Heifeng obediently exited the secret room and sealed the wooden boards above again.
Heifeng stayed in the thatched hut and refused to leave. Gan Xin asked, "Why don't you go and take a rest?"
Heifeng shook his head and said: "The building owner is down there, I want to protect him, Hall Master Gan can go on his own."
Gan Xin took out his tobacco stick and said, "I'm going to take a rest. I'm exhausted."
Gan Xin turned around and left, white smoke emitting from the dry tobacco stick in his hand.
When Heifeng saw Gan Xin leaving, he sat on the bed and rested.
When Gan Xin arrived in front of the inn, the shopkeeper immediately came to greet him. Gan Xin winked and the shopkeeper immediately said: "Master, please rest here."
Gan Xin put out his cigarette and went to a guest room on the first floor.
Entering the guest room, the shopkeeper pointed under the bed. Gan Xin nodded, and the shopkeeper went out.
