There were several people beside Chi Nu'er, one of them was Shi Zhao, he answered the call first, and after a while, he came with a small stove and a teapot, and put it down in this corner, and a small piece of white coal had been placed in the hearth, and the fire was lit, and the water was boiled.

Shi Zhao poured a bowl of hot tea and carefully and respectfully handed it to Chi Nu'er, who glanced at him, took it, pointed to the large plain outside the pass and said, "Shi Zhao, do you know where to go from there?" ”

"Yes, Xingyuan Mansion." Shi Zhao bent his waist slightly, with a respectful and flattering smile on his face.

"Yes, Xingyuan Mansion, what about going over again?"

"Chengdu."

"Yes, it's Chengdu, Chengdu!" Chi Nuer stood up, holding the tea bowl in one hand and pointing into the distance with the other, arrogant, scolding Fang Xuan, "As long as we win Chengdu, our foundation will be stable, hahaha!" ”

"Yes, the general's banner is victorious and wins Baocheng Pass, and Xingyuan Mansion is no problem, then Chengdu Mansion is nothing more than waiting for another two or three months, and it will still be in the general's pocket after all."

Shi Zhao's series of flattering words came out of his mouth without money, and several guards around Chi Nu'er all looked at him with disdain, while several people who were former Liao generals with Shi Zhao were expressionless, just as if they didn't see or hear.

A few days ago, in the battle of Baocheng Pass, Chi Nuer led the army to win a big victory, although he did not pursue Shi Zhao's crime of being captured by mistake by virtue of the great victory, but Shi Zhao's life was still not very good these days, for example, today he even asked him to do the matter of boiling water, but he didn't seem to care at all, it was better to be despised than to be pushed out and beheaded.

Chi Nuer was very comfortable by his sycophants, it seemed that the Chengdu Mansion was broken in front of him, Xu Zizhen would also become his ghost, the dark night sky was the stage of his dreams, and all the good things he hoped to happen were staged there.

It's just that he didn't notice a subtle tangle flashing in Shi Zhao's eyes, today it was time to unite his dozen or so former Liao compatriots to rebel, but Shi Zhao's heart was really bottomless, there were still 30,000 people under the Red Nuer, and now although most of them were scattered and camped outside the pass to resist the attack of the Song army, there were at least two thousand in the pass, how could they make this rebellion with a dozen of them? Even if the red slave is captured alive, what should I do next?

Suddenly, the corner of Shi Zhao's eyes swept to a certain corner of the wall, where there was a seemingly ordinary Jin soldier, holding a gun in his hand and guarding it, Shi Zhao was just casually glancing, but when he saw the face of the Jin soldier, he suddenly trembled.

Isn't that the master who touched his house the other night, why is he here? The master also noticed that Shi Zhao was looking at him, a cold smile appeared on his lips, his chin was slightly raised, and he was pointing in the direction of Chinu'er.

Shi Zhao's reaction was still very fast, and he returned to normal in an instant, and no one noticed that there was anything wrong with him, including the red slave beside him, but his heart tightened all of a sudden.

The man asked for a list of a dozen people on his side, and promised to rescue their families, but who knows if what he said counts? Although he didn't say it too carefully that day, Shi Zhao also understood that if nothing else, Xu Zizhen should lead his troops back tonight, seeing that the dark wind was high this month, it was a good weather to steal the camp and grab the pass.

Originally, he planned to depend on the situation, if Xu Zizhen came back, then depending on which side the battle situation fell towards, he would deviate which, even if he wanted to catch Chi Nuer, he would at least have to do it himself when Xu Zizhen entered the pass, otherwise someone was arrested here, but Xu Zizhen lost his hand and retreated, wouldn't he be dead?

The appearance of this master made Shi Zhao secretly complain, the abacus failed, he was under the surveillance of others, he couldn't steal chickens if he wanted to, he could only do it as agreed, but he was just nervous for a moment and calmed down, the things asked by the master were not done by himself, the dozen or so compatriots he had already communicated secretly, there was no difficulty in this matter, they and their own mentality was actually about the same, the gold reduction was originally a helpless move, who would like to be a slave to the country if he could be free, now he is secretly looking at himself with more than a dozen pairs of eyes, As long as they make a move here, they will naturally cooperate immediately, but they are still blind to how to do it.

Chi Nu'er was obviously in a good mood, sitting there with a bowl and sipping tea from time to time, shaking and shaking with Erlang's legs, as if waiting for Xu Zizhen to send him to the door.

Suddenly, a fire burst into the darkness in the distance, followed by a low explosion, not too clear, and it was expected to be several miles away.

Chi Nu'er's hand shook, and she stood up suddenly, her eyes widened, and she shouted, "What's the matter? ”

The lookout soldiers on the side of the city wall came to report: "General Qiyu, it seems that the road ahead has been attacked, the details are unknown!" ”

Chinuer was furious: "Rubbish! What is unclear? Why don't we go find out! ”

"Yes!" The lookout soldier hurriedly retreated, and greeted the mother of the red slave in his heart, what can you see in this black light?

At this moment, everyone in the city took action, the sword was unsheathed, the bow was wound, and the defense was ready in an instant.

The firelight just now was the troops they had arranged at the forefront of Baocheng Guannan, and it was the first line of defense to block the incoming troops of Xingyuan Mansion, and the night attack was expected by them, so no one was nervous, and the reason why Chi Nuer was out of shape was not because he was nervous and afraid, but that he was fantasizing about Xu Zizhen lying at his feet and shouting for mercy, it was when he was most happy that his dream was suddenly interrupted, and that kind of gap made him a little flustered.

And at this moment, another fire broke out in the distance, this time in another place, a few miles away from the place just now, and it was clear from the city, which was the second line of defense after the front line, which was also attacked.

Chinu'er's brows jumped, and before she could open her mouth to curse, the third flame lit up again.

Three fires in a row.

At this time, the faces of everyone on the head of the city rose solemnly, there were thousands of troops in each of the three places, and they were not close to each other, but they were attacked almost at the same time, which shows that the Song army was very well prepared, and the key thing is that the fire that exploded was not ordinary*, the brightness, the sound, you don't have to guess to know that this is the movement brought by Xu Zizhen's firearms.

Chi Nuer's temples also began to jump, Baocheng Pass is very thin, it can't withstand the beating, if Xu Zizhen really wants to lead the army to kill back, he will definitely not be able to hold it, and the bastard will not die until now, and he is still looking for some chicken feather ambush, isn't it fatal?

Just when he was secretly hating, suddenly there was a strong force behind him, and his back and arms were grabbed and he fell hard, and then the sky spun around, and he fell to the ground with a bang, so that he almost lost his breath in front of him, and when he came to his senses, he found himself lying on the ground, and a short knife was pointing at his throat.

Looking up at the knife, Chinuer opened her mouth and couldn't believe it.

Shi Zhao?
