Chapter 66 Night Fire

All of these white figures were wearing white cotton robes. The cotton robes were very rough, and the white inside was mixed with natural light gray, but they were very similar to the color of the snow valley at this time.

The most important thing is that the white white robes are set against the black scabbard below, and these figures are orderly as they move. The silent and cold temperament makes Song Wei conclude at a glance that this is only possible that it is the Qin army.

The responsibility of guarding the outpost at night is to warn the fastest speed when discovering the enemy situation at the first time. However, at this time, Song Wei looked at these silent white figures, and the thoughts filled with his mind were that even if he warned, would it be useful?

But in this moment, the white figures that appeared in his sight had far exceeded 2,000, which was twice the number of defenders in Xuegu Pass. The white figures in Xuegu Pass were still emerging.

Song Wei couldn't understand why there were such a number of Qin troops here to break through, but he was sure that this Qin army must still bear a more important mission, and its purpose was not to get to the Xuegu Pass this night.

That useless thought only hovered in his mind for a few breaths. In the next moment, he used all his strength to smash the porcelain bottle that had been clenched in his palms outside the hidden tent.

The mouth of the porcelain bottle is sealed with wax, and the inside is filled with red phosphorus cinnabar made with special means. As long as the bottle is broken and exposed to the air, bright flames will immediately ignite, no matter where it is in a cold place.

However, Song Wei just made this fierce throwing gesture, but the porcelain bottle did not fly out of his hand.

An extremely cold wind came from outside the camp, blew into the camp, and penetrated into the depths of his body along Song Wei's hand.

Song Wei opened his mouth in horror, but he couldn't make any sound. Not only him, but the five people who were crowded with him were also instantly "frozen" by this cold wind.

He watched the Qin army, like a white ghost, pass silently on the road below, until there was no new white figure at the end of the army. The total number of this Qin army exceeded 5,000!

What shocked him even more was that the several checkpoints behind him did not make any sound, and the Qin army was extremely smoothly pressing towards the sleeping Xuegu Pass.

"Don't warn, you people in Xuegu Pass already know."

When the last few soldiers of the Qin army passed the road below for dozens of breaths, a strange and young voice suddenly came from Song Wei's ears.

Deeper fear and shock spread in this cramped space of the camp.

A few feet outside the tent, a young man appeared at some point.

The young man was wearing an ordinary black cotton robe and his face was covered with black cloth.

He stood calmly, completely opposite to the depressing atmosphere of Qin's army pressing towards Xuegu Pass at this time, giving people an extremely strange feeling.

"What's the meaning?"

"Who are you?"

Song Wei inexplicably found that he could speak out. He lowered his voice, suppressed the shock in his heart, and whispered a few words. With the other party's accent alone, he could be sure that the other party was definitely not a Chu person.

"Don't be nervous. If I were with the Qin army below, you would have been dead now."

The young man slowly turned around, looked at Song Wei, and said.

This is definitely not a matter of life and death. Song Wei took a strong breath and said in a trembling voice: "Do the people inside really know?"

"I've notified it inside before coming here."

The young man did not play the puzzle and said, "The more the Qin army feels that your Xuegu Pass is not prepared, the more they will let go of attacks, and the more you Xuegu Pass can defend it."

How can a five-fold enemy be defended no matter how it is, no matter how lazy the tactics are used?

This was the first thought that came to Song Wei's mind.

But for some reason, the young man's extremely calm eyes made him not say such words directly at the first time. Instead, he asked subconsciously: "So many Qin troops have to pass here, and the number of them has arrived here, and what are they going to do with such a sneak attack in the dark night?"

"Da Yongguan."

The young man simply spit out three words, and then knew that Song Wei could not understand, and explained quickly: "This Qin army will raid Da Yong Pass with the fastest speed. As long as you can burn your Da Yong Pass for the forage farm, in more than ten days, the 40,000 to 50,000 troops in your area will be extremely unfavorable."

Song Wei was not a general, but he had been serving here for many years and almost immediately reacted.

During the war, the forage farm in Dayongguan would provide forage to Juyong and Zhushan two border cities, and those two border cities were extremely important transit border cities for transporting food and grass on the Chu army's border.

If the large number of military horses in these two border cities cannot obtain enough forage, even if the two border cities are not lost and have enough military rations, it will be extremely difficult to transport them effectively.

At this moment, even Song Wei realized that if the Xuegu Pass was broken and the Qin army successfully attacked Da Yong Pass quickly, the loss of several seemingly inconspicuous levels along the way would probably have a huge impact on the entire battle situation in an instant.

This is definitely a terrible loophole.

Before this, the Chu army's upper peak generals should not have noticed the movements of this Qin army and had no time to plug this loophole.

Thinking of these terrible things, Song Wei felt cold sweat all over.

"You can burn cinnabar now."

At this moment, the young man turned to look at him and said calmly.

Song Wei was stunned again, and then realized that the young man wanted to let him throw out the porcelain bottle in his hand.

"quick!"

The young man uttered a word in a hurry, with a heart-wrenching force.

Song Wei saw that the Qin army was only ten feet away from the wall of Xuegu Pass. He gritted his teeth and threw out the porcelain bottle in his hand.

With a bang, a fire gushed up on the hillside.

The fire light shone purple like a long candlelight. When blown by the wind, it disperses like countless purple-red fireflies and flies up the sky.

The purple fireworks set against the snow below, which is very beautiful. If it is usually romantic, it only gives people a feeling of suffocation and death.

At the height of the wall of Xuegu Pass, dozens of Chu army generals stood like stones, and they were extremely nervous.

In front of them was a female practitioner.

The female cultivator stared coldly at the Qin army rushing in front of her. When the fire surging on the hillside far behind, she didn't even sweep the light of her eyes to that place. All her perception and attention were concentrated on the Qin army below.

Many people in the ghostly Qin army turned their heads at this moment.

But only she captured the difference at this moment. She found out from these people that the body was the fastest intuition to react. She was the first to discover the strangeness on the hillside behind and the first to turn her head.

Her perception fell on this person.
