For a full year, the defenders in Hangu Pass remained unmoved, and the Wei army, which was originally defending outside the pass, actually lived a pretty good life.

Although the exercise is a little harder, everything is the same. Even if both sides meet scouts, they will not kill them. At the beginning, they just keep a distance from each other and keep a guard. Later, it becomes even more outrageous. They simply approach, say hello and greet a few words, and then go back to report.

This tacit understanding has been established for two years, and now it is full of joy inside the pass, and both sides are not alert at all.

However, the vast Wei army began to increase its troops continuously, and the states in the world had almost been pacified. So this time, Qin Shaoyou mobilized almost any force that could be mobilized in the world to gather here. The 300,000 army was in a mighty manner and had arrived at the city. The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Standing under the gate and looking at the towering gate wall, Qin Shaoyou had no expression on his face. He knew that taking down Hangu Pass was the most important problem that needed to be solved at the moment. He did not order an attack, but at this time, he sent an envoy into the gate.

The envoy was chosen from Zhulou, who had held important positions in the imperial guards, so when he asked to enter the pass, he soon met many old acquaintances.

Most of the defenders at Hangu Pass came from the imperial guards. Seeing hundreds of thousands of troops gathering outside the city, storming and covering the sun, the people at the gate didn't understand that this winter, the situation was a little different, so while letting people into the city, someone flew to Wei Xuanzhen.

At this time, Wei Xuanzhen seemed to have felt something wrong.

He stayed here and held the last barrier for the Wei family. No one in the world knows that the Wei family now has no chance of turning around.

Who would have thought that Qin Shaoyou could defeat the coalition forces of the Wei family's seven towns in one fell swoop? Who would have thought that Qin Shaoyou would soon gain a foothold in the seven towns and quickly began to annex other princes.

What is even more unexpected is that Qin Shaoyou's time to merge with the seven towns was so fast, and his power was really expanding too strong. Now... nearly 400,000 troops appeared outside Hangu Pass. These Wei troops were obviously all elite soldiers, tall and well-equipped. Obviously... Qin Shaoyou's arrival and hundreds of thousands of troops arrived. It is no longer as fast as before.

He sighed softly, and became even more worried.

At this point, how could he not understand that the Wei family is now in a desperate situation? Don’t he know how the whole Chang’an was shaken after the princes of the world became vassals of Qin Shaoyou. The trees fell and the money scattered. How many people had wanted to change their ranks, and how many former best friends had begun to contact people outside the pass. They even used any relationship. A few days ago, Jingzhao Mansion took a liar, the whole liar

He claimed to be a spy sent by Qin Shaoyou to Chang'an, but just such a liar quickly gained the favor of many people in the temple, and almost he became a guest of honor in all the mansions. Wherever he went, he was entertained with kindness, and everyone was scrambling to flatter him. He took it as honor to make friends with him, and waited until the entire scam was exposed. The court had no way to do anything. From beginning to end, except for secretly executing this person, he almost never asked him to admit any accomplices.

After all, it is just because once this person is asked to explain clearly, it means that countless people will be pulled out of the water, and everyone is tacitly informed. In Chang'an, no one is truly loyal.

Chang'an is like this, what about Hangu Pass? Hangu Pass is obviously even worse. All the soldiers have no energy in training and garrison. Everyone is planning their own way of retreat. People are creatures that seek benefits and avoid harm. There will be no one in this world who is so stupid that they will put their own lives onto a Wei family that has no future. Even if they have made contributions to the Wei family now, these contributions will become their own crimes in the future and bring disasters to themselves and their families. Then everyone can imagine what they think.

What's more, the military horses in Hangu Pass are singing Kanto songs now, and they are proud of their Kanto accent. Things are changing. This change is like spring rain, moistening things and silently. However, when Wei Xuanzhen was alert, she found that she had no choice except waiting to die.

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Dozens of generals had gathered in the central army camp, while Wei Xuanzhen sat high in the first place, and Zhang Jin was with him.

Everyone was summoning a man named Wang Rang with his own worries.

Wang Rang bowed and expressed his respect for Wei Xuanzhen enough, and then expressed his identity: "I am the deputy envoy of the King of Wei. At the order of His Highness of the King of Wei, I will come to report to Wei Shizhong and all the generals."

Wei Xuanzhen could almost imagine what the other party would say, and he pursed his lips and didn't make a sound.

Zhang Jin said: "You just say it's okay."

Wang Rangcai said: "Your Highness of the King of Wei, respecting the second prince as his respect, and for the Emperor Wei's behalf to fight against the Queen Wei's crimes, I will not repeat them."

Speaking of this, Wei Xuanzhen's face changed slightly. In front of everyone, he scolded his daughter, and the empress of the current dynasty. If it were the past, he would have dragged it out to slaughter. However, at this time, he said nothing, just pursed his lips and said nothing.

Wang Rang continued: "Now His Highness, the King of Wei, has integrated 37 towns in the world, led 300 prefectures, and counties, with more than 2,000 counties, with a group of millions of soldiers and sufficient food, and the people under the account are full of talents. Now he wants to enter the pass, and kill the Empress Wei family to safeguard the people. If he wants to surrender from the pass, if he wants to surrender to Xianguan, my Highness will not only not investigate the previous matters, but also ensure that all military generals can remain in office and will not be difficult. Those who were formerly the Minister of the Secretariat were still the Minister of the Secretariat, and those who were formerly the Minister of the Secretariat were still the Minister of the Secretariat. As for soldiers, if they were willing to stay in the army, His Highness of the King of Wei had their own arrangements, but if they were unwilling to join the army, they could also distribute travel expenses and dismiss them."

Although this condition is not very favorable and there is no rebellion to promote the title, it has a fatal attraction for everyone now.

Moreover, the other party specifically mentioned that the former Shizhong was still the Shizhong. This means that even Wei Xuanzhen could be pardoned. Of course, anyone understands that if Wei Xuanzhen really surrendered, even if he really became Shizhong, he would probably only occupy a void position and would not be able to hold real power. However, the defeat of the Wei family was only a matter of time, and Qin Shaoyou was already interested in Wei Xuanzhen.

As for retaining official positions, it seems that the appetite for many generals is also to take their own life. The willingness to surrender seems to not affect oneself.

Although many people didn't say anything, their minds were already moving.

Wang Rang continued: "After half a month, the King of Wei will order the attack. If he still resisted stubbornly at that time, the governor would use millions of elite troops to break through the pass. Any soldier who was killed and injured in the attack. Your Highness will take this account on your head. At that time, the heads will fall to the ground and no one will be spared..."

This is a threat. This threat is not just as simple as saying harsh words, but almost everyone knows that what Wang Rang said is very likely to become a reality. If everyone believes that harsh words will be realized, it is impossible to be indifferent.

Wang Rang didn't say much: "Please think twice with the generals, and Wang said goodbye."

Wang Rang left.

It was still very quiet here. No one spoke, everyone's eyes looked at everyone. The people who were seen were also looking around for traces of the expressions on other people's faces.

The needles fall in the tent can be heard. The silence is heard.

Wei Xuanzhen sighed: "Okay, I'm tired, everyone, let's go down."

The generals all looked at Wei Xuanzhen, and everyone's emotions were extremely complicated.

However, everyone still responded to Wei Xuanzhen's famous order and then left.

Only Zhang Jin did not move, and he was still sitting here, his face stiff.

"Governor Zhang...is there anything else?" Wei Xuanzhen's face suddenly had a bit of mockery. This time he did not call Zhang Jin, but was called an official position.

Zhang Jin bit his lip and said nothing.

Wei Xuanzhen frowned: "If you have something to say, it's time to come, what else can embarrass you? Alas."

Zhang Jin hesitated and said, "Shan Tai should go?"

"Let's go?" Wei Xuanzhen's face did not have a look of surprise.

Zhang Jin finally gritted his teeth, as if he made up his mind: "Don't Taishan know that even if he stays here, he can't stop the Wei army? Does Taishan know that even if Taishan insists on being here, it will only cause a disaster for death? The matter has broken to this point today. Does Taishan still want to be lucky? Taishan, if you are willing to listen to my good words, please set off quickly and leave Hangu Pass. The sky will be dark. Does Taishan still understand? No one is willing to protect this Hangu Pass with his life. No one will leave the Wei family, Chang'an, the emperor, and Empress Wei even if it is a drop of blood. Staying here at Mount Tai is just a waste of his life. It will not be the Wei army that killed Mount Tai, but the people within the pass. Taishan is still able to leave now, but it is too late to regret it!"

Wei Xuanzhen was surprisingly calm. He raised his eyes and looked at Zhang Jin who was anxious and said calmly: "It is not just the people in the pass that killed me. If I guessed that, if I insisted on staying here and killing me, I am afraid that Governor Zhang would be the one who killed me."

Governor Zhang's face turned red, as if his thoughts were exposed by him. He looked depressed and smiled bitterly: "If Taishan has to say this, then the son-in-law will admit it. Yes, Taishan must leave, Taishan will not surrender, but the son-in-law still wants to survive. The son-in-law has parents and wife and children. Should he really ruin himself for Empress Wei's ambition? Qin Shaoyou is already the world's heart. If the son-in-law doesn't attack Taishan, then others will take action. If the son-in-law doesn't want such a letter of fame, the son-in-law will want it. The son-in-law knows that Taishan will be disappointed after hearing the son-in-law's words. The father-in-law and son-in-law will be broken at this point. This is ridiculous, but the son-in-law really doesn't want to take action. The son-in-law only hopes that Taishan will leave immediately and go far away and never come back. The son-in-law... The son-in-law can at least endure the greed in his heart now, and after tomorrow, he will lead the generals in the city to surrender."

Wei Xuanzhen sighed quietly, but she was speechless.

Zhang Jin couldn't help but say, "Please make plans early."

Wei Xuanzhen suddenly smiled and said, "No, I won't leave."

Zhang Jin was already frowning and looking at his father-in-law.

Wei Xuanzhen smiled bitterly: "This is the evil of my daughter. If she is more responsible, why should she reach this point today? If you want to surrender, I can understand it. It's good. Even if you resist stubbornly, it will be just a death and will not have any meaning. There is no hope. Now, there is no hope. But... If you ask me to leave, where should I go? Go to Chang'an? I went to Chang'an with my front foot and then the hundreds of thousands of troops were directed to Chang'an and went out of the frontier? I am old and can't stand the torture. Where can I go? No, I can't go anywhere. I can't surrender. I am the father of Queen Wei, others can

Since then, although Qin Shaoyou is willing to recruit surrender and betrayal, I can't. So... I can't leave, so stay here. You... You are right, not at all. If you don't kill me, others will kill me. If you don't use my husband's head as a letter of fame, others will take my husband's head to seek credit and reward. Governor Zhang, from now on, you are not your father-in-law and son-in-law. You can give up, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's not that you Zhang Jin is sorry to our Wei family, but that our Wei family is sorry to you, so... I won't resent anything you do. Let's do it now. If it's too late, it's really too late."

Zhang Jin bit his lip without saying a word.

Wei Xuanzhen stood up: "Be more accurate in starting, just stab the heart..."

Zhang Jin stood up, wanted to draw his sword, but finally chopped his feet hard: "Oh... Taishan..."

Wei Xuanzhen opened her eyes and said sternly: "Come!"

This may be the bravest moment in Wei Xuanzhen's life. He has been cowardly for the rest of his life, or incompetent and stupid for the rest of his life. At this moment, he has an inexplicable courage: "Come on, hurry up, don't delay, time can't be delayed."
