As soon as Xu Zizhen arrived at Jincheng Pass, he found that there were many people lying on the ground, including Song soldiers and masked people in black, and the cold and hard ground was full of bloodstains.

He pulled a sergeant next to him and asked urgently, "What's the matter?" What about Lord Meng? What about the small species? ”

"Zizhen!" Before the sergeant could answer, a voice sounded not far away, and as soon as Xu Zizhen looked up, he saw the seed master looking at him with a smile.

Xu Zizhen breathed a sigh of relief, there was nothing wrong with the seed master, otherwise it would be a great blow to the morale of the Song army, he dismounted and came to the front of the seed master: "The little seed is the prince, is it a three-peer hall?" ”

The planter smiled: "It's just a clown who jumps off the beam, don't pay attention to it." ”

Xu Zizhen glanced around, and roughly counted, there were about forty or fifty people in black, and he couldn't tell what level of martial arts he was, but at the moment, the crisis of the three peerless halls was resolved, but Qian Size and the 100,000 army were still outside the gate.

Thinking of this, he suddenly discovered a strange thing, just now Shui Liuli said that the Western Xia army had arrived, but now it was so quiet outside the pass that he couldn't hear a sound, but there were many places on the pass, and there were several soldiers holding torches and swaying around, and they were also holding steel knives and beating each other, and their mouths were shouting from time to time.

"Little Seed Minister, ...... are you?" Xu Zizhen was a little dumbfounded, and he didn't know what routine these soldiers were playing.

The seed master smiled mysteriously: "Didn't he want to take advantage of the chaos in the pass to kill?" Then Ben Shuai will give him this opportunity, what do you think? ”

Xu Zizhen suddenly said: "I understand, are you planning to trick him into attacking the city and fighting in close combat?" ”

Whether it is the seed master or Xu Zizhen, they all know one thing very well, that is, the benefits of the weapons of the Western Xia people, even if the extreme artillery they secretly made was destroyed by Xu Zizhen, but no one knows if they will have other secret weapons, even if there is nothing else, just the divine arm bow and whirlwind cannon are enough, as long as they are far away from the pass and shoot fiercely, and wait for the firepower on the pass to be dumb, then it is time for them to step on.

But now, Qian Size thought that the people of the Three Peerless Hall had succeeded in harassing Guan, and even successfully assassinated the Seed Master and Meng Du, so he would save his troops and firepower and kill the Guan directly, but in this case, he would fall into the hands of the Seed Master.

The planter patted him: "The main drama is about to start, let's go." ”

"Good!" Xu Zizhen came back to his senses and followed him to the pass.

When he came to the gate, Xu Zizhen immediately felt a strong fighting spirit, dozens of artillery pieces were lined up, the ammunition had been filled, the fuse had been inserted, there were two gunners next to each gun, holding torches in their hands, which had already been prepared, and there were several rows of infantry in the city wall, with steel knives in their waists, spears and steel forks in their hands, nesting behind the battlements without making a sound.

The weather tonight is not good, the moon disappears from time to time, and it is all dark from the gate, and you can't see half of the Xixia soldiers at all, but the aura of slaughter can't be concealed, and it spreads from afar.

The planter glanced at the shut, and shouted in a low voice: "Move!" ”

A soldier who followed him immediately took out a bamboo tube about a foot long, lit the fuse at the mouth of the barrel with a torch, and held it high and pointed it to the sky.

Shout!

A sharp sound of breaking the air sounded, and a small fireball shot out from the mouth of the barrel, flying straight into the night sky with the sound, and a dazzling arc was drawn at the end of the day, and it disappeared.

Xu Zizhen's nerves tightened violently, this signal flare was obviously searched from those black-clothed people, it seems that the seed master is ready to lure the enemy over, and the big war is about to start!

At some point in the night sky, a thick dark cloud drifted in the night, completely obscuring the moonlight, and it was still pitch black outside the city walls, and there was no sound except the whirring of the wind.

Gradually, there seemed to be some strange rustling in the wind......

Xu Zizhen's hand had already grasped the Tang knife, his eyes were staring at the dark land, and suddenly a horn sounded, and a little light suddenly appeared in the darkness, and then the fire was flourishing, and countless torches appeared in sight out of thin air.

The planter shouted in a deep voice: "Artillery preparation! ”

All the gunners were on standby, their torches approaching the fuses, ready to fire.

Xu Zizhen could see clearly, under the reflection of the torches outside the pass, it was clearly a large black crowd, it was the Bubazi in the Western Xia army, in this night like a transit locust, rushing towards Jincheng Pass, and behind Bubazi was a neatly lined up cavalry, but they did not move for the time being, keeping a certain distance from the city gate, as long as Bubazi could open the gate drawbridge, they would immediately sprint and rush straight to the pass.

The army has been pressed, but there is still no trace of fear among the planters, and his expression is indifferent, Xu Zizhen saw it in his eyes, and secretly praised it in his heart: He really deserves to be a famous general of the Great Song Dynasty!

Five hundred steps!

Three hundred steps!

One hundred steps!

Fifty steps......

The distance between the steps and the pass was so close that you could almost see their nostrils, Xu Zizhen only felt that his heart was beating faster and faster, and his palms began to sweat, what the hell did the little seed minister do, why didn't he give the order?

The planter seemed to hear his heart, turned around and smiled at him: "The fire has not yet arrived." ”

Xu Zizhen was stunned, this is not yet the time? Do you want to wait for them to climb up and shoot directly at the door of their heads?

The speed of the step was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye it came to the pass, and the flying ropes were thrown straight up, and a hook was tied to the head of the rope, and it hung up on the city wall at once.

The planter opened his mouth unhurriedly: "Ignition!" ”

The artillerymen, who had been waiting impatiently, immediately lit the fuse, and a series of earth-shattering cannon sounds rang out, accompanied by a neat row of firelight, which looked extremely brilliant and dazzling in the night.

Boom Boom!

The cannonballs landed unmistakably in the distance, at the junction between the infantry and the cavalry, and the Western Xia horses were in a commotion, neighing.

The planter ordered again: "Continue!" ”

Another round of artillery fire was fired, but it still fell in that position, Xu Zizhen suddenly understood, this was to control the Western Xia cavalry from a safe distance from the pass.

At this moment, the footmen had already climbed the city wall, but as soon as they appeared, the Song soldiers who had been lurking in the pass for a long time appeared, and the spears and steel forks came out, and the screams suddenly sounded again and again, and one by one the figures fell down.

It's just that a wave just after another wave then climbed up, after all, the other party has a large number of people, no matter how hard the Song soldiers slash and kill, they are a little powerless, finally, someone successfully turned up, with the first one, there is a second, the first one, but after a moment's work, the closing is already full of short hair, short clothes, fast knives and hemp shoes.

At this moment, there were Xixia people everywhere, and the soldiers of the Song army gradually couldn't resist it, and suddenly a clear whistle sounded, and more than a dozen black shadows swept out from some corner, and flew over, and the sword flashed one after another, and those who rushed up to the pass fell one after another like cutting wheat.

The dozen or so men were agile and swift, and the footmen fell under their swords one by one, but after all, the disparity in numbers between the two sides was too great, and there was still a steady stream of people on the city wall.

Xu Zizhen couldn't hold it anymore, turned over his hand and pulled out the knife, and rushed over with a loud shout.

Let's warm up with Bubazi first, and then I'll give you a big meal when Lao Tzu's Shenji Camp comes over!
