At the foot of Juyong Pass.
The sky had already turned dark, and there were many soldiers holding torches on the city wall.
Zhao Rui shouted in the Xixia dialect,"
"City Lord has returned. Quickly open the city gates."
The Western Xia soldiers guarding the city had already seen Zhao Rui and the others.
This was because Zhao Rui and the others were all wearing Xixia armor.
That was why they did not give up on attacking.
Now that he heard that it was the City Lord's team, he felt a little strange.
"Didn't the City Lord just leave the city not long ago?”
"Why are you back so early?"
The soldiers guarding the city were all personal guards trained by Li Jichong.
She could not help but feel that something was wrong.
However, they could not act rashly now.
What if the City Lord really came back on a whim?
If they offended the City Lord, then even the general would not be able to protect them.
"Inform the general."
A city guard said to the soldiers beside him.
The soldier understood and carefully left the city wall.
Zhao Rui and Great Qin's people also saw this.
Even Zhao Meng and the others were extremely anxious.
They were just waiting for Brother Rui's order to charge up and forcefully attack the city.
"The current situation is special. Anyone has to confirm their identity before they can enter the city pass.”
Hearing the voice on the city wall,
Zhao Rui's face did not have the slightest fluctuation. Clearly, he had long expected this.
He immediately pretended to be furious and continued shouting,
"Impudent!"
"You lowly soldiers actually dare to stop the City Lord from entering the city. Who gave you the courage?”
"Let me tell you, before the City Lord gets angry, if the City Lord gets angry, all of you will have to bear the consequences!”
Hearing Zhao Rui's angry voice.
The soldier who had made the decision earlier also had an ugly expression on his face.
Because he knew that everything the other party said was true.
This city lord of his was one of the top nobles in the entire Xixia Kingdom.
If he was really angry,
Even General Li Jichong would not be able to escape punishment.
However, the general had already given the order.
Anyone who wanted to enter Juyong Pass had to check their identity.
This was really troublesome!
Zhao Rui saw the conflicting expressions on the faces of the Xixia soldiers on the city wall.
He knew that he only needed to add fuel to the fire.
Then, this Juyong Pass would belong to Great Qin.
He retreated slightly.
Zhao Rui made an invisible gesture to Zhao Jiuyin behind him.
Zhao Jiu immediately understood.
"Get them to open the city gates!"
Zhao Jiu held a sharp dagger that was flickering with cold air in his hand.
Helian Qi, who was the target of the hostage, could even feel the coldness of the dagger.
This cold air told him that if he didn't listen well, the result would definitely be death!
At the thought of this, Helian Qi's little thoughts instantly disappeared.
"Hurry up and open the city gates for me!"
"If you bastards don't open the city gate, I'll kill all of you when I enter!”
He listened to Helian Qi's voice.
Many soldiers on the city wall knew that it was the real city lord.
"Commander, let's hurry up and open the city gates. It really is the City Lord's voice.”
"That's right, Commander. It's definitely the City Lord's voice.”
"Commander, if you don't open the city gates, I'm afraid we will really be severely punished by the City Lord!”
Everyone knew Helian Qi, the City Lord.
This was an existence that they, the border soldiers, absolutely could not provoke.
"This..."
The commander who had just given the order was completely shaken.
Everyone was right. If he continued to be in a stalemate like this...
If he really waited for the City Lord to come in, he would definitely not have a good ending.
Thinking of this, the commander made a decision and shouted to the people below,
"This subordinate welcomes the return of the City Lord. Open the city gates.”
As soon as he said that, most of the guards on the city wall heaved a sigh of relief.
After all, if the City Lord was really angry.
It wasn't just the commanders who were punished. The ordinary soldiers would only end up worse.
"Open the city gates!"
Two sturdy doors made of refined iron slowly opened in front of Zhao Rui and the others.
He looked at the opened city gate.
Zhao Meng, Zhao Jiu, and the others all revealed wolf-like and tiger-like gazes.
After several months of training by Zhao Rui.
They had already seen blood in the previous battle.
Right now, they were like wolves that had seen their prey and were ready to attack.
He was ready to use his full strength to devour all the Xixia soldiers.
"Wait!"
Just as the door was about to open completely.
A cold voice came from afar.
Because they were quite far away, only Zhao Rui, who had a profound cultivation, heard it.
"The time has come!"
Zhao Rui understood that this was the best opportunity.
"Great Qin's soldiers, charge with me!”
"Kill!"
Zhao Rui no longer hid it from himself. He threw away the Xixia armor on his body, revealing the black armor of the Great Qin Dynasty.
"Kill!"
After finding Zhao Rui, the other elites of Great Qin also followed suit.
The group of people drove their horses and charged towards the city gate.
"Sou!"
"Bang!"
Colorful fireworks flashed in the sky.
This was a signal flare from Great Qin's army, and it was specially used to quickly inform the battlefield of the situation.
On the other side, Meng Ze led 10,000 elites and had already finished reorganizing.
They were only waiting for Zhao Rui and the others 'signal.
"Sou!"
"Bang!"
Seeing the fireworks in the sky, Meng Ze knew that Zhao Rui and the others had succeeded.
An uncontrollable smile appeared on his face as he waved his hand and ordered the army to move out. Their target was Juyong Pass!
