Although the pass guards fought to the death, the Northwest Army rushed into the pass like a tide. In terms of military strength, the defenders were already at a completely disadvantage.

The Northwest Army that attacked Xigu Pass this time were elite soldiers in the northwest, most of which were trained on the battlefield, and although the Xigu Pass defenders have always been subjected to strict training, their combat experience is now much weaker than the Northwest Army.

Since the founding of the Great Qin Kingdom and stabilizing in the northwest, there have been few large-scale wars in the Great Qin Empire, not to mention that this extremely strong pass has few swords and weapons.

Although morale is extremely important when two armies fight, when the sword and gun are fighting, the skills and experience of combat are also the key to victory or defeat.

The morale of the defenders was not above the Northwest Army. The defenders always believed that the pass was as solid as a rock and could not be broken. If they had strong self-confidence and morale were in full swing, but when the copper gate opened and the Northwest Army rushed into the pass, the morale of the defenders was hit hard in an instant.

When the Northwest Army charged, the losses were quite large, and the defenders had the upper hand. The Northwest soldiers were full of anger. Now they rushed into the pass and poured out their anger. The morale of both sides increased and weakened, and the Northwest Army had the upper hand.

Thousands of officers and soldiers from both sides gathered within the pass, and every corner of geometry was filled with figures. The Northwest Army had an absolute advantage in military strength, and both in overall and local fighting, it had an absolute advantage.

Many defenders knew that the situation was hopeless. Since the Northwest Army rushed in, there was no possibility of repelling the Northwest Army. Instead, they continued to fight, which was nothing more than a death to the country.

Although some soldiers did resist tenaciously and had the intention to die for the country, for most soldiers, there was no need to continue to resist when the situation was already hopeless.

Many soldiers had already abandoned their weapons and surrendered to the Northwest Army, but some stubborn people retreated to the juncture and made the final desperate resistance.

After a fierce battle overnight, countless casualties were killed and injured. Only more than 200 people were left by Da Xi Zhang. He had been forced to retreat to the edge of the wall. The black northwest soldiers surrounded him in a semi-arc shape, trapping Da Xi Zhang and others.

Da Xi Zhang's intention to drink had long disappeared, and the fierce battle ended, and his whole body was covered with scars.

Originally, there were 5,000 troops inside and outside Xigu Pass, and they were very familiar with the terrain of the pass. If they were carefully deployed, they might not be able to fight the Northwest Army.

However, the reinforcements from the camp were blocked by the bronze gate and could not enter the reinforcements at all, so they could only watch inside the gate.

"General!" He Changqing was already stained with bloody armor. He held the big knife and stared at the Northwest Army like a tiger and wolf, and said in a deep voice: "We have no way out, we can only fight to the end with them!" He raised his arm and was about to lead the remaining hundreds of soldiers to rush forward. Da Xi Zhang had already raised his hand to grab his arm. He Changqing was stunned and looked at Da Xi Zhang, but he saw that Da Xi Zhang looked very calm and couldn't help but whisper: "General!"

Da Xizhang looked at the dark Northwest Army and said in a deep voice: "Where is Xuanyuan Sheng? Let him come to see me!"

However, the Northwest Army was eyeing Da Xizhang and staring at people like wolves staring at prey, and could rush forward at any time.

"Xuanyuan Shengcai!" Seeing that no one was paying attention, Da Xizhang shouted loudly: "You shameless villain, you don't get out of here, even if you die, you must see what your despicable villain is now!"

A cold voice came from the crowd: "You want to see me?" In the voice, the crowd separated a gap, and one person slowly walked over, his hair was disheveled, his armor was broken, and his body was covered with blood, as if he had just climbed up from the sea of ​​blood, his face had been covered with blood, and he could only see the general outline clearly.

Seeing Xuanyuan Shengcai's appearance, Da Xi Zhang was stunned at first, then he looked resentful and angry in his eyes. He raised his hand and pointed at the blade, "Xuanyuan Shengcai, you two-faced and three-sword shameless villain, I didn't expect that you would not even recognize your ancestors. How can you be worthy of the Duke and the Emperor?"

"Duke?" Xuanyuan Sheng smiled contemptuously: "I'm just afraid he doesn't have the face to see me!"

Da Xi Zhang was stunned.

"Da Xizhang, you are a hero." Xuanyuan Sheng said slowly: "If the world is peaceful, you and I may be able to really drink and talk. It's a pity that the chaotic times are in power, and you and I will be the master of their own!"

Da Xi Zhang had multiple wounds on his leg. He limped forward two steps and said sternly: "You are such a villain, I blame me for being blind and actually sitting with you!"

At this moment, a noise was heard, and Xuanyuan Shengcai heard a shout from behind: "Let's go, go quickly!" Many people were a little surprised and looked over, but saw several soldiers pushing a middle-aged man in a wide robe coming over. The man was in his early forties, his hands were tied behind his back, and his hat had long disappeared. His hair was messy, his clothes were disheveled, and his face was full of horror.

He was pushed by the soldiers and stumbled. He saw spears and swords everywhere, and his armor was cold. The middle-aged man looked horrified, but his eyes were filled with a trance.

Suddenly seeing Xuanyuan Shengcai who was like a bloody man, the man was surprised, then saw the outline clearly, and said in a lost voice: "General Xuanyuan Xuanyuan!"

"Sir, are you sleeping well this time?" Xuanyuan Sheng sneered: "I disturb you to rest, please don't blame me!"

"General Xuanyuan, what's going on?" Huang Qi looked confused, perhaps in horror, and his mind was dazed, and he had not yet seen clearly what happened.

When Da Xizhang saw Huang Yi, his eyes immediately showed anger, and laughed angrily, saying sternly: "Mr. Huang, this is the good thing you did. Your Highness asked you to go northwest to ask him to raise an army, but you brought a great rebel to the court!"

"Rebel?"

"Master Huang, can't you still see that you were playing with by Xuanyuan Sheng as a fool. He was a traitor sent by Chu Huan." Da Xizhang sneered: "You, Master Huang, always said that this person was forced to escape here, but this person deliberately used you to enter the pass together!"

Huang Wei's whole body was shocked. After all, he was not a fool. He understood a little at this time and said in a lost voice: "General Xuanyuan Xuanyuan, have you betrayed the court?"

Xuanyuan Shengcai sneered: "What is the need for such a bullshit court?"

"You!" Huang Yi finally realized that he had become the clown who had played with the clown in the applause after Xuanyuan Sheng. He suddenly felt angry, but he thought of something and asked, "So, in order to enter the pass, you should pay for Lu Cunxiao's life?"

"Lu Cunxiao?" Xuanyuan Shengcai said lightly: "If nothing unexpected happens, Lu Cunxiao is now gathering troops with General Pei!"

"Impossible!" Huang Tu immediately said: "I saw you kill him with your own eyes and stabbed him in the heart!"

Xuanyuan Shengcai sneered: "If you don't act a play, how can you believe me? If you didn't lead us into the pass, how can Da Xizhang believe that we were defeated? That knife did stab, but it did not stab his heart. If you had the courage to go over and check it at that time, you would find that the stabbed part was still a little distance from the heart. In order to implement this plan, Lu Cunxiao was willing to take the risk. When I stabbed that knife, I was worried that I would hurt him!"

Huang Tu immediately understood, but Da Xizhang looked at Huang Tu at this moment as if he was looking at a clown.

"In this way, what you mentioned are the plan to assassinate Pei Ji!" Huang Tu's voice couldn't help but tremble.

Xuanyuan Sheng said lightly: "Since you came to me that night, I knew that a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity had come. I was thinking of delaying you for a few days and making detailed plans, but Duke Chu had already returned to the northwest at that time. Just after you left, Duke Chu had already arrived in Jiazhou City, and we made detailed plans that night!"

Huang Tu just felt cold hands and feet.

"Assassination of General Pei is only part of the plan." Xuanyuan Shengcai said lightly: "You go to the northwest and you are escorting the Divine Clothes Guards. I thought about using you to enter the pass at that time, but there is no Divine Clothes Guards around you. The Divine Clothes Guards have always been cautious, and their feelings are extremely sharp. If you don't catch all the kids around you, the plan is likely to be defeated by them!"

Huang Tu understood: "So you deliberately said you wanted to assassinate Pei Ji and set up a trap, but that trap was not set for Pei Ji, but for the Divine Uniform Guard?"

Xuanyuan Shengcai sneered: "You understand now. You don't think about it. Lu Cunxiao suddenly disappeared. If I really wanted to kill General Pei, how could he easily fall into the trap with General Pei's shrewdness? We originally wanted to design the plan more complicated so that you would not have any doubts. It's just that time is tight and we don't have much time, let alone!" Looking at Huang Tu contemptuously: "There is no need to be too complicated to deal with a role like you!"

Huang Tu was both ashamed and annoyed, regretting, "I just blamed me for not believing Zhang Baihu's words at that time. He was suspicious of you at that time!" His face was full of annoyance.

"So Zhang Haizhu and others must catch them all in one go." Xuanyuan Shengcai smiled and said, "Without the Divine Yiwei, you are a deaf and blind man, so let us fiddle with him!"

"Xuanyuan Shengcai!" Huang Tu said angrily: "I believe in you just because you are a child of the Xuanyuan family. I did not expect that you don't even care about your own family. You are not only a traitor, but also a traitor of the Xuanyuan family. What is your face in the world, you are an unfaithful and unfilial person?"

"Unfilial?" Xuanyuan Shengcai's already red eyes suddenly burst into cold light, his voice as cold as a knife: "It is precisely for the sake of loyalty and filial piety that I want to take Xigu Pass!"
