    As soon as the words came out of his mouth, even though Liu Chang had already guessed Ling Xian's plan, when he heard the answer, he still couldn't help but his eyes darkened, he felt blood boiling in his chest, and there was a sweet feeling in his throat. He couldn't bear it anymore.  Unable to hold on, he coughed twice and sat down on the ground, panting for a long time but unable to regain consciousness.

    "My lord, my lord"

    His appearance frightened the soldier, but Liu Changben grabbed his chest and heaved a long sigh:

    "God wills it like this, God wills it like this!"

    Now if you want to save your life, you have to flee to the northwest and escape into the wilderness, where it will be difficult for the Tang army to pursue.

    However, Ling Xian was so ambitious that he refused to admit defeat easily even when he was in such a situation, so he went to Hangu Pass.

    Liu Chang was such a person, how could he have guessed what Ling Xian had in mind? He was probably still thinking about leading troops to invade Luoyang, or he was just trying to imitate what Guo Han and others did to take advantage of his unpreparedness and recapture Xijing.

    The human heart is not enough for a snake to swallow an elephant.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? was the result of all the hard work and infamy that the old Prince Zhongxin had made to come to Xijing, but now it is all ruined.

    When Liu Chang was in agony and worried about whether the Ling family's bloodline was still alive, the soldier who originally reported to him suddenly whispered:

    "My lord, I'm sorry."

    As soon as Liu Chang finished speaking, before Liu Chang could react, the soldier slipped a dagger from his cuff and stabbed him in the stomach with all his strength.

    Liu Changben felt a coldness in his abdomen at first, and then severe pain spread to his limbs.

    He kept trembling and reached out to touch his belly instinctively.

    At this moment, he remembered what his old friends had said to him yesterday.

    Ling Xian had long been dissatisfied with his repeated backbiting, and some people had come to persuade him in private. However, Liu Changben knew that good advice is harsh to the ears, and good medicine is bitter to the taste. There were many villains around Ling Xian who were seeking to gain influence, and Ling Xian heard a lot of good advice.  But someone needs to speak out and tell the truth.

    He had actually already vaguely guessed that Ling Xian had the intention to kill him, but he didn't expect that this day would come so early.

    When Liu Changben thought of this, his face became paler and he held his stomach. The soldier did not even dare to raise his head.

    Someone screamed not far away, as if something strange had happened.

    The soldier hesitated for a moment. Seeing that he was old and already unsteady on his feet after being stimulated earlier, he was stabbed again at this time. Even if he was still alive, the Qin army might not be able to let him go when they came.  Therefore, the man only paused for a moment, then let go of his hand, leaving the dagger in Liu Changben's belly, and turned around and ran away.

    Yu Zhaocheng led 20,000 horses and rushed to Dingzhou City overnight. At this time, Ling Xian's men and horses in the city had already been evacuated. There were not many people left. There were only a hundred or so people who were loyal to Prince Zhongxin. The rest  The people were all the old, weak, sick and disabled who were temporarily recruited from the city. The real elites and young and strong people had long been taken away from Dingzhou City by Ling Xian.

    Liu Changben, who was ordered by Ling Xian to defend the city, was plotted again. The city was leaderless, and Yu Zhaocheng easily broke open the city gate.

    At this time, Ling Xian led his people out of the city overnight and ran all the way until it was getting dark, and they got close to Hangu Pass. The horses and people were already tired.

    The afterglow of the setting sun could not shine into this deep valley. Ling Xian wiped his face at this time, his eyelids twitching.

    Earlier, he received the news that Dingzhou City had been captured by the Tang Army. At this time, Yu Zhaocheng and others had already arrived in Dingzhou. As his counselors said, after these people captured Dingzhou, they would definitely divide their troops into two groups and fight with You all the way.  Qi Shao will join forces in the state to relieve the danger in Youzhou and attack the Khitan leader Qu Ci. Troops may be sent to chase him along the way.

    He could not delay any longer. At this time, people were sent forward to inquire about the news. It had been half an hour, and there was no enemy attack in front.

    While worrying that someone might catch up from behind, Ling Xian was anxious to get his carriage and horses into the valley.

    Some of his counselors dissuaded him:

    "Your Majesty, there is a total of eighteen miles from here to Hangu Pass. Why don't you wait for a while and wait until it is safe before entering the valley."

    "Some people are worried that the Tang army is chasing after them. The troops marching to Lingxian are all on tenterhooks. The spies have been there for more than a quarter of an hour, but there is still no news, so they think it's okay.

    It was very quiet here, and you could only faintly hear the sound of gravel rolling into the valley. If he was ambushed, even if he was defeated, he would always be able to hear a shout, but now it was silent, and I think it was silent.  It's in the way.

    It's just that Ling Xian was frightened to death at this time. Although he thought that the people who were eager to enter the valley were right, he still waited patiently for half a stick of incense. Although he didn't see the spies coming back, he couldn't bear it anymore.  , immediately ordered the army to set off.

      Before arriving at Hangu Pass, no danger was seen. The generals entered the valley first with confidence and boldness. Ling Xian was walking in the middle. He was less than half way there when only the sound of "ka-ka" was heard above his head.

    Everyone at the bottom of the valley looked up and saw that there seemed to be rocks rolling down above their heads.

    This scene frightened all the generals under Ling Xian to death. They turned around and wanted to run away. However, the valley was so narrow that only one car could pass by, and the army was already panicking.

    After bursts of screams, many people died under the rolling stones, and some died in the trampling of each other running for their lives.

    Ling Xian finally escaped out of the valley under the protection of his close men, but he heard someone shouting in front of him:

    "There is a lurch!"

    The sound of ¡®swish¡¯ arrows piercing the air was heard, and from time to time someone made a shrill cry before death.

    Everyone was scared like headless flies and wanted to run back, but the way back was already cut off.

    The 35,000 elite men who followed Ling Xian out of Xijing that day were slaughtered as if they were caught in a jar.

    Amid the soldiers' shrill screams, Ling Xian was protected on a horse, his face pale.

    From time to time, soldiers under the former Zhongxin County Prince's Mansion fell down all around. At this moment, Ling Xian didn't know that he was afraid that he had fallen into the Tang army's plan.

    I am afraid that he will die in Hangu Guanzhong today.

    Every time a guard from the former Zhongxin County Prince's Mansion fell down, his cheeks twitched, and the faces of the loyal guards around him were full of hesitation.

    The original high ambitions were reduced to nothing in the bursts of painful wails.

    Ling Xian¡¯s face was pale and his whole body was shaking.

    He has worked hard for a long time, but now it is ruined.

    Ren Lingxian is a cunning old man, but now that his soldiers are being massacred, he can't think of a suitable solution in his mind.

    His hands and feet were cold, and his internal organs seemed to be grabbed and pulled hard.

    He just let his men push him around and fled in confusion.

    In such a critical moment, for some reason, he remembered what Liu Changben said yesterday, asking him to flee to the northwest above Dingzhou.

    At that time, Liu Changben was certain that he could only flee towards the Sanggan River, leave the pass, and escape into the wilderness, so that it would be difficult for the Tang army to pursue him.

    It¡¯s just that at that time, he hated Liu Changben for speaking harshly, always opposing him, wholeheartedly refusing to praise his great achievements, so how could he listen to him?  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
