Chapter 272 Turning around

Tiance Army!

Behind the counter, the Tiance army in black armor kept coming out of the secret passage, one, two, ten, twenty, and still not over.

Some soldier thought the counter was in trouble and chopped the counter to pieces with a Park knife.

Some soldiers also thought the entrance of the secret passage was too small, so they simply cut it towards the wooden floor.

After a few slashes, half of the floor of Zhengtang collapsed, opening the hole that had only allowed one person to pass through, revealing the armored soldiers who were still waiting inside.

The smooth scales of the Tiance Army's armor were shining against each other, and the dense armored soldiers under the floor looked like beetles. Chen Ji felt his scalp numb.

Zhang Zheng murmured, "So many?"

The shopkeeper of Longmen Inn did not lie. There is really a secret passage leading out of the city, but this secret passage is no longer a life path, but a dead end!

Zhang Xia looked at Chen Ji and said, "If these people know clearly that the prince is here, someone must have reported it to me... I have never seen the shopkeeper again after I came back in the morning. It must be him!"

Chen Ji suddenly understood many things, no wonder the shopkeeper asked him in the early morning if he would come back!

Strange, was the shopkeeper worried that he would be implicated when he came back before he went to inform him?

At this time, the soldiers of the Tiance army rushed towards the stairs. The Yulin army in the main hall roared "Protect Your Highness" and pulled out their long swords from their waists to guard the stairs.

Chen Ji carried the prince and turned around and ran upwards. He kicked the second floor room and broke into it.

Chen Liqin in the room, Liang asked anxiously, "What's the matter with the shouting of killing outside the door?"

Chen Wenzong said anxiously: "Father, Jing Chao's thief came up from downstairs!"

Chen Liqin was shocked: "I think they just came to Xuwei Lane, how did they come here?"

After saying that, he looked at Chen Ji, but Chen Ji didn't have time to pay attention to him.

Chen Ji walked to the window frame and said, "Zhang Xia, Zhang Zheng, I will take you downstairs and leave from the backyard..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw the scene outside the window and was stunned.

Zhang Xia came to him and looked out through the window that had just been opened. Xiao Wu limped out of the stable with a kitchen knife covered in blood, waved to Chen Ji on the second floor, and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Call, run quickly! Run, Jing Chao is coming!"

Chen Ji was silent and had no way out.

The next moment, the soldiers of the Tiance army broke out from the stable. Instead of chasing Xiaowu, they surrounded the inn as soon as possible to avoid being escaped by the prince.

Chen Wenxiao stammered, "Father, where did these soldiers come out?"

No one answered him.

Listening to the shouts of killing in the main hall, Chen Wenxiao hurriedly said, "Chen Ji, aren't you an official? Go out and help the Yulin Army kill the enemy."

Zhang Xia looked at Chen Wenxiao coldly, then looked at Chen Ji: "You can go out and go to the Tibetan cellar. If you can leave alone, you will definitely not be able to walk with us."

Chen Wenxiao was anxious: "No, father, brother is still here, how can he leave?"

Zhang Xia said angrily: "Jing Chao promised not to massacre the city, but Hu Junxian agreed to open the door to offer the city. Now Jing Chao is betrayal, and someone in Guyuan City must return to the Central Plains to inform the world of Jing Chao's betrayal. In this way, I would never have the door to offer the city again!"

Chen Wenzong was stunned: "Miss Zhang Er's words are reasonable. This is a major family and country matter. Chen Ji, please leave quickly. You must return to Beijing alive to report this matter to the court!"

Everyone looked at Chen Ji, but Chen Ji silently put the prince down without saying a word.

Liang and others became nervous. Chen Ji was the only one here, who was an official. If Chen Ji ran away alone, what should they do?

Liang said in a panic: "Chen Ji, haven't you always wanted to return to the property left by your aunt? Ask Zong, ask Xiaoruo can return to the capital alive, the Gufu Tower outside Donghua Gate, the Yujing Garden in the Eight Great Hutongs, Chenji Grain and Oil Shop, the Silk House outside the Bell and Drum Tower, and the 320 acres of fertile land in Changping, you can all return it to you!"

"Mother!" Chen Wenzong said in surprise: "These are all the property left to him by Aunt Chen Ji? You said earlier that this is your dowry."

Liang's face suddenly became stagnant.

Chen Wenzong whispered loudly: "If it was really left by Aunt Chen Ji, then I should have given it back to him. How can I use it as a bargaining chip for trading? Mother is confused!"

Liang covered his face and cried: "I don't think about it either, but you and Wenxiao can't have anything to do!"

At this time, Chen Ji listened to the shouts of killing outside the house and said calmly: "I won't leave."

When Zhang Xia heard this, he immediately pulled him aside, lowered his voice and said, "Chen Ji, there is no one in this inn worthy of your rescue. You have to live to meet the princess! She is now lonely and helpless. If you are gone, what will she do? Who else can she wait for?"

Chen Ji said calmly: "Guyuan may not be lost."

Zhang Xia was stunned and thoughts were heard: "Do you think Hu Junxian..."

Chen Ji lowered his head and thought. He didn't understand Hu Junxian and Zhou You, but he knew King Jing and Bai Long.

The King Jing was in great ambitions but was terminally ill. He was unwilling to die just like this, so he spent several years on his own and made all his work.

The white dragon was cruel and ruthless, and was very wise and close to the demon. Chen Ji didn't believe that Jing Chao could break the white dragon's situation by just burning the granary!

Chen Ji looked at Zhang Xia: "What is the famous Jing Chaotian Ce Army?"

Zhang Xia replied: "Tiance's army was skilled in archery and horses, and long-distance raids were the best in the world. It was known as the world's cavalry together with the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry of Jingchao."

Chen Ji asked again: "How can we severely damage the Tiance Army?"

Zhang Xia shook his head: "It's very difficult. Even in the battle between Qu Wushan, the Tiance army was only killed and injured. They retreated too quickly and could return to the battlefield after returning to Jingchao's army, unless they surrounded them..."

She said this and suddenly looked at Chen Ji: "You mean, Hu Junxian intends to open the door to offer the city, introduce the Tiance Army into Guyuan City, and treat Guyuan as a cage? At this time, more than half of the Tiance Army have entered the city to kill. If there is really an ambush, the Tiance Army will suffer heavy casualties. At least it will take several years to recuperate."

The shouts of killing outside the house were shocked by the sky, and the room was silent. Everyone looked at each other and a glimmer of hope rose in their hearts.

However, Chen Liqin frowned and said, "No, even if the Tiance army has entered the city, why did Hu Junxian use to kill so many Tiance army? Are the border troops missing bowstrings by piercing vine armor and using rust knives? Those border troops are okay to defend the city, and field battles are not the opponents of the Tiance army at all."

Chen Ji was silent, which was his biggest doubt now.

He naturally knew that Bai Long was secretly creating firearms, but he knew very well that the power of firearms in this era was not enough to kill so many Tiance troops, unless the entire Guyuan City had firearms buried underground.

But this is obviously impossible.

Chen Ji looked at everyone and asked, "Where are the troops that Ning Chao can compete with the Tiance Army?"

Chen Liqin said in a deep voice: "The three major camps in front of the imperial court have just fought a battle at Chongli Pass, and it is impossible for them to appear here. This should be the confidence of the Tiance Army to dare to attack Guyuan."

The hope that had just risen in everyone's hearts was wiped out again.

At this time, Chen Ji and Zhang Xia suddenly said in unison: "No, there is still an army..."

The two looked at each other, and Chen Ji turned around and walked out with his knife: "I'll guard the stairs, Xiaoman, you guard the windows, maybe there will be a turning point! We have to drag the time, the longer the better!"

Zhang Zheng asked Zhang Xia in confusion: "What kind of mystery is it? What is the turning point?"

But Zhang Xia did not answer, just looked at Chen Ji's back as he went out.

Xiaoman hesitated for a moment, "Did the young master know that I am an official for a long time and have been teasing me?"

Zhang Zheng said happily: "You don't hide it much."

Xiaoman glared at him: "You can still laugh now?"

After saying that, she took out a small silver scissors from her sleeve and squatted down to cut it on the ground. But she saw that she cut the shadow out of thin air, and the shadow struggled to expand.

Gradually, the shadow grew into a sheep body, a human face, and a bloody mouth spread from the left armpit to the right armpit. The black hair curled on the four hooves was like four black auspicious clouds.

Taotie!

When Liang saw this monster, he was so scared that he retreated repeatedly. A small third-class maid in his mansion was also an official?

...

...

The inn has been surrounded by the Tiance Army soldiers.

In the main hall, there are only five of the thirty Yulin soldiers left. They are covered in blood and are waving their swords in the middle of the stairs, evacuating to the second floor bit by bit.

The stairs were narrow, and the soldiers of the Tiance Army could not rely on the number of people to win for the moment.

Yu Linjun roared as he waved his sword excitedly, "Come on, you have a bride, come on, practice with the man!"

In the main hall, a soldier like an iron tower stood by the counter and took off his helmet. Among all the soldiers, he was the only one with a black pheasant tail inserted on his helmet.

He took apart a jar of burning knives and poured them into his mouth as if nothing had happened: "Good wine!"

After saying that, he swallowed another sip of wine, spit on his heavy sword with both hands, and slowly wiped the blood on it with the hem of his clothes.

When wiping, he didn't even look at the Yu Linjun on the stairs, and said calmly: "There are only five of them left to stop me, Tiance Army? I can replace my life with my life!"

Hearing this, the soldiers of the Tiance Army under the stairs looked at each other and actually used the method of exchanging life for life, rushing up like a life-despite.

When the first person rushed forward, the armor was pierced by the Yulin Army's long sword in his abdomen, but he let the sword pass through his body and chopped the big sword in his hand towards the Yulin Army's head!

The Yulin Army had never seen such a fierce fighting style. They wanted to pull the sword out of the armored soldiers' body, but the blade was stuck by the muscles and bones. They were caught off guard and their heads were cut off.

In just a few breaths, only five Yulin soldiers were swallowed up. The soldiers of the Tiance Army dropped the bodies on the stairs, raised their legs and rushed upstairs.

However, at this moment, footsteps came again at the end of the stairs.

The soldiers of the Tiance Army looked up and stood with a knife.
