The group changed their clothes, King Xiang pretended to be a merchant, and the others pretended to be bodyguards and followers.
King Xiang walked into the courtyard and looked back at Wangcheng with complicated eyes.
Since Zhenyuan Escort Agency has a way to deal with falcon, it will definitely not be used only on him.
Although he has not received any news from Brass Gou yet, King Xiang can already guess the result.
Although he felt extremely unwilling, King Xiang had to admit that Jin Feng and the Ninth Princess had achieved great success, and they had broken away from the restraint of Ying Falcon. No one could stop the rise of Sichuan and Shu.
This also means that he may have to spend the rest of his life on the run.
"Let's go!"
King Xiang sighed and motioned to the dead men to lead the way.
When I first chose to place the exit of the secret passage here, I considered the retreat in advance.
Xiangwang City is built on the mountain. Behind the small courtyard is a hill. After climbing over the hill, there are endless mountains behind.
The small courtyard is in the northwest outside Xiangwang City. Although it is not far from the West City Wall, it is not close to the West City Gate and the North City Gate. Usually few people come here. That is to say, the soldiers on the city wall occasionally shout down.
Two voices.
Now even the government soldiers have fled, and the city walls are empty without a soul.
The followers behind King Xiang were all his confidants who were absolutely loyal to him, and they left through a secret passage, completely eliminating the possibility of being followed.
As long as he entered the mountains, even if Jin Feng had great abilities, he would never be able to find him in the vast mountains.
Led by the dead man, a group of people walked from the small courtyard into the hill.
After walking a few hundred meters along the narrow mountain road, a forest appeared in front of us.
"Your Majesty, through this forest is the Bailian River. I have prepared a fishing boat. Your Majesty can take the fishing boat to Langtou Mountain."
The dead soldiers lead the way.
King Qin prepared a retreat in the mountains in advance, and King Xiang naturally also prepared.
Langtoushan was one of the escape routes he had prepared, and it contained more supplies than King Qin.
Led by the dead man, the group walked through the woods and saw a small river with a fishing boat tied to the river.
There are many rivers and lakes in Xiangdi, and many people have fishing boats at home, and they fish in their spare time to supplement their household income.
However, the fishing boats in ordinary people's homes are mainly wooden rafts. King Xiang originally thought that the dead soldiers would prepare this kind of small boat. However, the fishing boat in front of him is seven or eight meters long. In the homes of ordinary people in Xiangdi, it is considered a very big fishing boat.
It's enough for King Xiang and his party to ride.
The captain of the Royal Forest Army went up to check the fishing boat first. After confirming that there was no danger, he bowed to Prince Xiang and said: "Your Majesty, please!"
King Xiang nodded and boarded the fishing boat.
There were fishing nets piled up in the cabin, and there was a strong fishy smell.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I didn't know that Your Majesty was coming today and did not clean up the cabin in advance. I have wronged Your Majesty!"
The dead man explained while dragging the fishing net outside.
"It doesn't matter, I'm not the kind of squeamish person, not to mention that this is a special period, and there is not so much to pay attention to!"
King Xiang waved his hand and praised: "You did a good job!"
After saying that, he winked at the chief eunuch.
The great eunuch understood, took out a golden bean from his arms, and handed it to the dead man.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward!"
In the feudal era, rewards from the king could not be declined casually. The dead man quickly put down his fishing net, knelt on the floor, raised his hands above his head, and took the golden beans.
He kowtowed to King Xiang again, then picked up the fishing net again and walked out of the cabin.
King Xiang glanced at the stool next to him but did not sit down.
When the eunuch saw this, he quickly squatted down and wiped the stool vigorously with his sleeves.
After the eunuch stood up, King Xiang sat down.www.81zw.????m
"Everyone, please get on the boat and be careful not to be seen by the airship!"
The captain of the Royal Forest Army said to his men.
In fact, the straight-line distance from here to King Xiang City is only one or two miles, and they can clearly see the airship, which means they can also be seen from the airship.
Fortunately, the fishing boat was parked at the edge of the woods. The place to get on the boat was blocked by the woods, and there were many fishing boats parked around. The airship was focused on bombing the Imperial Guards and did not notice them at all.
The Royal Guardsmen all boarded the ship with their waists hunched over, and then squeezed into the cabin.
There were only two people left on the deck, the captain of the Royal Guards and the dead soldier.
"Let's sail the boat!" The captain nodded to the dead man, who jumped to the shore and untied the rope tied to the tree.
Then he jumped back into the fishing boat, picked up the bamboo pole and propped it up, and the fishing boat began to move slowly.
The team leader looked at the woods that kept retreating and felt slightly relieved.
The bombing in King Xiang City has not stopped yet, and explosions are heard one after another. If you stay in the city, there is only one way to die.
No matter what happens in the future, at least for now they are out of danger.
The team leader withdrew his gaze and was about to enter the cabin when he suddenly heard two roars.
The team leader subconsciously turned his head to look in the direction of the sound, but unfortunately he saw nothing. He felt as if he had been hit by a running bull and flew straight away.
Then, I felt a sharp pain in my chest and back.
Looking down, I found that there was a big hole in my chest.
When he fell into the water, the team leader immediately realized that he had been hit by an arrow, and it was a heavy crossbow arrow!
"There's an ambush!"
The squad leader murmured, and then his consciousness sank into darkness.
It sounds slow, but it's actually very fast.
From the time the arrow appeared to the time the team leader fell into the water, it only took a few seconds.
"There is an ambush!" The great eunuch's face changed drastically. While protecting King Xiang with his own body, he shouted: "Protect Your Majesty!"
The imperial guardsmen in the cabin immediately divided into two teams. One team rushed up to surround King Xiang and the eunuch, while the other team guarded the entrance to the cabin.
On the deck, the dead man leaned over and hid under the side of the ship, staring intently at the woods on the left bank.
In fact, there was another arrow that was shot at him just now, but he happened to be in the direction of the arrow, and with his quick reaction, he rolled on the spot to avoid the arrow.
"Chen Peijun, I know you are on the boat. Stop hiding and come out!"
A cold shout came from the woods, and then a dozen bodyguards came out of the woods, all holding muskets in their hands.
"Someone betrayed His Majesty!"
The great eunuch turned to look at the dead man.
The same goes for other Imperial Guardsmen.
It can be inferred from the attire and tone of the bodyguards that this team of bodyguards has already laid an ambush and is waiting for King Xiang.
And they followed King Xiang from the moment the airship appeared, without stopping for a moment, and they didn't know the existence of the secret passage at all. Even if they wanted to betray King Xiang, they had no chance.
Only the dead men knew about the existence of the secret passage, and the captain of the Royal Forest Army was shot to death by a heavy crossbow just now, but he survived.
In the eyes of the eunuch and others, this was a collusion between the dead man and the bodyguard.
"Why betray me?"
King Xiang also gritted his teeth and looked at the dead man.
But the dead soldier said with an aggrieved look: "Your Majesty, I didn't betray you!"
