Xu Zizhen was angry and anxious: "100,000 Western Xia troops, do you think it's a joke?" ”

Wen Xian suddenly smiled, like a hundred flowers blooming: "If you are given 30,000 troops, can you keep Jincheng overnight?" ”

Thirty thousand? With the steep terrain of Jincheng Pass, it will definitely be able to defend it! Xu Zizhen subconsciously said: "Of course you can!" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately reacted and said in surprise: "The 30,000 defenders of Lanzhou City are also here?" ”

Wen Xian smiled and didn't say anything, her body moved to the side a little, Xu Zizhen looked behind her, but saw a large number of soldiers densely lined up under the pass, all of them neatly lined up.

"This ......" Xu Zizhen was taken aback, the defenders of Lanzhou City poured out, is this planning to fight against the water?

Wen Chengyan stepped forward with a slight smile: "Zizhen, this official has thought very clearly, if the Jincheng Pass is lost, then Lanzhou City will fall into a bitter battle, and the city will be implicated by the people. ”

Xu Zizhen was silent for a moment, Huo Di raised his head, his eyes were blazing, his fists clenched: "Don't worry, my lord, I will never let Xixia occupy an inch of my Great Song Dynasty, let alone this Jincheng Pass!" ”

The sky has gradually darkened, today's weather is not good, the clouds in the sky are very thick, the moonlight is tightly covered, the torches are closed, but it is dark outside the pass, and the Western Xia army on the opposite side cannot be seen at all.

Meng Du had already arranged for it, and countless rolling stones and wooden pieces had been prepared, strong bows and crossbows had also been erected, dozens of artillery pieces were neatly lined up on the gate, and the black and heavy muzzles were facing the outside of the gate.

Xu Zizhen has changed into clean clothes, Li Meng has also eaten and drunk enough, surrounded by a bunch of soldiers, there are talking and laughing there, as if he has become the center of that circle of people, he may be the youngest member of this pass, that is, the dark green little girls all look older than him.

Today, when Xu Zizhen broke into the battle with thousands of people, he followed closely, not worried at all, and even a spear made it majestic, without the slightest timidity, the men who were soldiers were all rough and straightforward people, and when he saw such a little man, he naturally liked it in his heart.

Li Meng's injuries were not good, and there were a lot of new injuries that rushed down today, and now he didn't have clean clothes to change for him, and his body was covered with blood, Xu Zizhen was distressed and relieved, this kid looked like the material of a fierce general, and if he was trained well, he might not be able to become a general in the future.

The three girls didn't seem to care about the existence of the 100,000 army outside the Guan, and they didn't know what Lu Dao said when they sat on the side and whispered softly, Xu Zizhen had a headache, and he didn't know how Lu Dao explained to Wen Xian the matter between him and Shui Liuli, but he found that he didn't seem to have to worry about this matter at all, and the two women approached like sisters and laughed, and Kou Qiaoyi was well-behaved and knowledgeable, which won the hearts of the two.

Xu Zizhen slowly put his mind down, looking at the girls, one charming, one cold and one well-behaved, even the dark green little girl is also bright-eyed and very cute, although she is still young, she is already a complete beauty embryo, it is really good in her own way, he can't help but itch in his heart and wants to squeeze over to join in the fun, but at this moment, a horn suddenly sounded in the distance outside the gate, and it came clearly in the dark and quiet field.

"Not good!" Xu Zizhen suddenly changed color, just stood up and heard a sound of breaking the air came quickly, and then a dense rain of arrows shot towards the pass, the arrow was longer than the ordinary arrow, the arrow was thick and sharp, Xu Zizhen just looked up, and saw that several Guan soldiers were shot through the iron armor by the arrow.

Meng Du hurriedly shouted: "The enemy is attacking, quickly fall down!" But the incident happened suddenly, and the experienced veterans immediately bowed down, while the recruits and those who were slower to react died tragically under the long arrow.

Turning off the torch and brightening it, it became an excellent target in this night, and the long-range attacks of the Western Xia army almost all came towards this place without any mistakes, and this rapid and fast rain of arrows suddenly caught the soldiers off guard, and before they could catch their breath, another stone rain smashed over.

This attack was a round stone ball, about the size of two sea bowls interlocking, the stone was hard, thrown far away and smashed on the wall bricks at the juncture, and suddenly the whole gate was faintly trembling, and not long after, the solid and thick wall tiles were smashed out of cracks in many places.

The rain of arrows and the stone ball beat the soldiers to the point that they couldn't stand up at all, and at this moment, a huge stone dozens of times larger than the stone ball was thrown from afar, and landed accurately in the pass, and anyone who was taken by him to rub it would not die or be seriously injured, and dozens of people had died under this stone in an instant.

Listening to the scream, Xu Zizhen only felt a wave of anger rising from the bottom of his heart, and he couldn't hold it anymore, he lowered his body and jumped to Xin Chou's side, grabbed his big axe, ran quickly to a bronze cannon, turned his head and shouted: "Are there any artillery?" ”

Suddenly, more than a dozen soldiers surrounded him, and Xu Zizhen said: "Fill the gunpowder and fill the shells, and blow them up!" ”

An artilleryman hesitated: "But it's too dark outside the pass to determine the direction, and the Western Xia soldiers' divine arm bow ......."

Xu Zizhen didn't say a word, jumped to the city wall of Guantou with an arrow step, and before his body could stand firmly, more than a dozen sharp arrows immediately roared towards him, he waved the big axe to block them one by one, and roared sharply: "If you don't want me to die, fire the cannon quickly and blow up the damn!" ”

Those artillerymen only felt that the blood was surging violently, Xu Zizhen was like an eternal god, guarding them majestically, who also took those arrows and boulders to heart, and rushed over with a shout, quickly loaded gunpowder and moved the shells, and the soldiers in charge of calibration gritted their teeth and adjusted the angle indiscriminately-bang!

A cluster of fire flared up, and the huge iron ball in the cannon flew into the night with a piercing sound of breaking wind, and suddenly there was a scream and exclamation in the distance.

Xu Zizhen heard it clearly, and his spirits immediately perked up, and he smiled and said, "Just press this angle and continue to blow up!" ”

As he spoke, he didn't stop for a moment, and the arrows and stones came towards him, but the huge axe in his hand was danced like a wheel, and he swept it away one by one no matter what came close, even the huge stone was split by him with an understatement.

Xu Zizhen's behavior undoubtedly stimulated the fighting spirit of every soldier in Guan, and at that moment, many people stood up straight and pounced on the artillery, and the row of artillery on the city wall was soon full of people, even if an arrow stone hit someone between them, someone immediately made up for it.

"Boom!"

"Boom, boom! ……”

The sound of cannons shook the heavens and the earth, and the flames of the muzzle illuminated the entire closed area as bright as day, and there were continuous exclamations and screams from the Western Xia army in the distance, and the rain-like arrows and stones suddenly slowed down.
