Looking at the remaining more than 100 people, Li Zhaochang breathed a sigh of relief, it was not too bad, it was better than nothing.

Li Zhao knew very well that not all of these people who stayed were willing to be loyal to him. Some of them were worried that their lives would be in danger when they returned, and because they had no good place to go, they stayed with Li Zhao for the time being.

Among these people left behind, the generals Liu Xuan, Zhou Wen and others were good at charging on the battlefield, and Wang Zichen was good at planning.

Wang Zichen has repeatedly persuaded Li Qi and his son not to rush to rebel, and to keep a low profile as much as possible, the time has not yet come. It's a pity that Li Qi didn't listen to him.

In the end, Li Zhao kowtowed to his mother Bai and father Li Qi. This time, among the people who fled Chang'an, there were several brothers and sisters of Li Zhao, and they didn't know if they would be able to see each other alive in the future.

Li Zhao said to Liu Xuan and the others: "Dugu Ling is a shrewd person and will not easily relax his vigilance. Even though we ride fast horses, we may still be overtaken, and we still need to wait for the right time. Pointing

to the departing crowd, he added, "Wait until all these people leave." The other side will temporarily mistakenly think that we have all surrendered, and their hearts will be relaxed. At the same time, the scattered crowd can also temporarily block the opposing cavalry. There is only one chance, and if you see me turn over and get on my horse, run with me at once, and don't look back. Even if there are thousands of arrows in the back, whip the mount and speed away. "

Everyone thinks it's a good plan, and there's no better way to do it right now.

Half an hour was about to come, and Dugu Ling saw many people, and walked towards this side in frustration. There is also the figure of Yongwang Li Qi in this.

Dugu Ling breathed a sigh of relief, since the mastermind Li Qi had given up resistance, it meant that this pursuit had ended. Most of the corporal thought the mission had been accomplished. Dugu Ling didn't think that Li Zhao dared to leave alone.

After all, Li Qi is the eldest son of the emperor, and Li Kun has not abolished his prince for the time being. Dugu Ling dismounted and greeted Li Qi and the others.

Li Qi was like a frosted eggplant, his voice was weak, and he asked, "What does my father plan to do

with me?" Dugu Ling said lightly: "The last general has not received the holy decree yet, please His Royal Highness King Yong go back to Chang'an with me first."

At this moment, a lieutenant under his command suddenly said: "General Qiyu, there are more than 100 horsemen in front of you who suddenly fled south.

Dugu Ling's expression tightened, and he suddenly thought of something, and said hurriedly: "His Royal Highness King Yong, dare to ask where is the prince of the world?"

Li Qi said: "Zhao'er is not here, he doesn't want to go back to Chang'an."

After hearing this, Dugu Ling immediately turned over and got on his horse. led his cavalry to chase in the direction of Li Zhao.

Just chased less than 100 paces, because there were still many surrendered crowds ahead. Dugu Ling didn't want to bump into them and was forced to slow down. After passing through the crowd, accelerate again to catch up.

Li Zhao could vaguely hear the sound of iron hooves constantly trampling the earth behind him. Even so, he doesn't look back. Li Zhao even took off his armor, just to be faster. Fortunately, I learned to ride a horse in my previous life, otherwise I would have really died.

After chasing a stick of incense for a while, the distance was never pulled in, and seeing that Li Zhao and the others were about to enter the mountain, Dugu Ling decisively ordered archery. Because of the lack of distance, less than ten people were shot off their horses.

The road ahead was getting rougher and bummer, and it was no longer suitable for horseback riding. Li Zhao ordered everyone to abandon their horses and run deep into the mountains.

Dugu Ling chased here, and saw that the deep mountains and mountains in front of him were intertwined, and the trees were luxuriant. The same order was given to dismount and run to continue chasing Li Zhao.

The roads in the mountains are potholed and extremely difficult to walk. In order to hurry up, Dugu Ling didn't pay attention to his feet, and fell carelessly, eating a handful of soil in his mouth. Annoyed in his heart, he ordered his subordinates to catch Li Zhao no matter what, whether he lives or dies.

After all, Li Qi, the king of Yong, was the eldest son of the emperor, and Dugu Ling did not dare to kill him. And Li Zhao is the grandson of the emperor, and he is deeply involved in forcing the palace, and the emperor's more than 20 imperial grandsons, even if they kill Li Zhao, they will not severely punish Dugu Ling, at most they will be reprimanded.

Li Zhao was also bitter in his heart, the road in the mountains was so difficult to walk. I just fell a few times, resulting in minor falls on my knees and arms. In order to speed up, only a long sword was left on his body, including money and food, and everything that should be thrown was thrown away. Eating in the future is a problem.

Think about the experience of traveling through these two days, either running for your life or on the way to escape. It's really poured eight lifetimes of blood mold. He was miserable by King Yong and the original body, a strange father and son.

Recently, I carefully combed through the memories of the original body, and found that King Yong was really a person with great ambitions and talents. only blindly seeks the position of the crown prince, but he doesn't know that others are also calculating the Yongwang Mansion. Li Zhao seriously suspected that someone in the mansion had already been bribed. Otherwise, as soon as King Yong's soldiers and horses arrived in the East Palace, how could Emperor Li Kun have made careful arrangements in advance.

Li Zhao shook his head, it was not appropriate to think about it at the moment, he wanted to get rid of Dugu Ling's pursuit as soon as possible.

Enduring his exhaustion, Li Zhao accelerated forward. The entourage, among the elderly, was so tired that he couldn't run, lying on the ground, caught by Dugu Ling behind him.

Li Zhao was worried that the others would not be able to hold on, so he comforted everyone: "Don't panic, everyone, we have already moved forward lightly, but Dugu Ling and his subordinates are all wearing armor, and they are definitely not as fast as us." And he is not familiar with the mountain roads, and when it gets dark, we can get rid of the pursuit behind us. Li

Zhao was right, after dark, it was dark in the mountains. Dense trees, blocking out some of the moonlight. Even if Dugu Ling lit the torch, his vision was still limited.

By the dawn of the next day, Dugu Ling had completely lost the traces of Li Zhao and the others. In the vast mountains, it is very difficult to find Li Zhao.

The adjutant general beside him persuaded: "General, our army has recovered King Yong and others, and the task has basically been completed." Ahead is the border of Hanzhong, and if you continue to chase it, it is difficult to guarantee that you will not encounter the Qi army.

Dugu Ling was really unwilling in his heart, but the dry food he brought with him couldn't last long, so he said helplessly: "Go back to Chang'an." What

Dugu Ling didn't know was that Li Zhao and the others were on a hillside to his right. The distance was less than two hundred steps, and everyone did not dare to breathe, for fear of being discovered.

Li Zhao was depressed, and wanted to use the cover of the night to completely get rid of Dugu Ling. I never thought that I would go the wrong way. He took a few turns in the deep mountains, thinking that he had successfully escaped from the pursuers, and when he was secretly rejoicing, he looked up and saw that Dugu Ling was not far away. Fortunately, the other party did not continue the search and led people back.

Zhou Wendao: "Shizi, Dugu Ling has left. We have to get out of here as soon as possible.

Li Zhao hesitated and said, "I know that it has not been easy for you these days, but Dugu Ling is cunning. I don't know if I will come back. We're in a more secluded position now, suitable for hiding, and good for escaping in all directions, so it's best to stay where you are. After one or two hours, if Dugu Ling doesn't come back, I'll go out later.

Unexpectedly, he was guessed by Li Zhao, and Dugu Ling left for less than an hour, and returned the same way. I checked that there was no movement around and finally gave up completely.

Li Zhao breathed a sigh of relief, this level is over. The next question was: Where are the people going?

Seeing everyone looking at him in unison, Li Zhao showed a calm appearance, with a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth, as if everything was within his expectations.

In fact, he was nervous to death, there were only more than 100 people left in this team, and everyone had different thoughts. He is currently the backbone of everyone, and if there is a little panic on his face, the team will collapse immediately, and everyone will most likely leave him. The identity of King Yong's son is no longer of much use, and he doesn't want to be a bare-bones commander.
