249, the war in the castle

After Liu Yan's troops set up camp at the gate of the castle, they began to attack the city the next day. Hundreds of soldiers attacked the city gate for a day and a night, but still did not take down the city gate. Both sides suffered considerable losses, with nearly a hundred casualties. In order to capture the castle, Liu Yan broke with the Immortal Kingdom completely and spared no expense. The officers and soldiers who attacked the city were already very tired, and his subordinates suggested that they rest and then attack the city.

Liu Yan disagreed and ordered his subordinates to continue to attack the city, so that the other party could not have the chance to get angry. In fact, Liu Yan did this to attract Zhao Feng's main force and weaken the combat effectiveness in the palace, so that Hao Qiang had a chance in the castle to fight back against the soldiers placed in the palace and occupy the palace.

When Zhao Feng personally led his palace guards to support the gate of the castle, the officers and soldiers of the guards stationed in the palace, Hao Qiang started to mutiny. They cooperated with Hao Qiang's team to fight, killed the military advisor, and quickly occupied the palace. Hao Qiang raised a skull flag at the gate of the palace, and ignited a raging fire on the beacon tower of the guard post on the mountain road leading to the kingdom, and reported to Liu Yan's troops outside the city that they had captured the palace.

Zhao Feng, who was commanding the city to guard the city, stood on the city wall and ordered the soldiers to shoot Liu Yan's soldiers who were sieging the city with bows and arrows. Suddenly, a soldier came to him and reported:

"Report to the king, the palace was occupied by Hao Qiang and his gang."

"What?" Zhao Feng didn't believe his ears.

The soldier pointed at several beacon towers next to the guardhouse on the Wangguoshan Road and ignited a fire, saying:

"King, look, the signal on the beacon tower was sent by Hao Qiang and his gang."

Zhao Feng saw a signal of fire on several beacon towers on the city walls, and he cursed in his heart: [Hao Qiang, you guy, really regret not executing you immediately.]

Zhao Feng was very calm on the surface, but began to panic. He had to take back the palace, which was a symbol of the Kingdom of Mutual Help. He left some soldiers to Captain Guan of the Palace Guard and ordered him to continue to defend the city. The remaining officers and soldiers worked with him to run towards the mountain road of the Palace. He vowed to take back the palace.

The mountain roads of the palace are easy to defend and difficult to attack. Hao Qiang had already arranged archers to wait for Zhao Feng's guard to arrive at the important intersection. Zhao Feng's guard walked to the first door, but was blocked by Hao Qiang's archers. Dozens of soldiers were killed and injured, but they could not attack the door. Zhao Feng was anxious, and he personally picked up the big knife and shouted, leading the soldiers forward, trying to break out of a bloody road.

Zhao Feng was very fast and had good light skills. Unfortunately, the mountain road was steep and the pass was narrow. He rushed up more than twenty stone steps in succession. He was about to reach the guard post, but was shot by a shower arrow. He used a big knife to push it away, but an arrow shot into the left chest. Zhao Feng did not take into account his injuries and wanted to rush to the guard post in one go. However, he suddenly pushed several large rocks down the mountain and smashed him towards him. Wherever he went, no one could stop him. Zhao Feng had to dodge quickly, which made him extremely embarrassed. In the end, he could not conduct a high-intensity attack due to his injuries, so he had to retreat to the foot of the mountain.

Zhao Feng returned to the foot of the mountain, and the military doctor pulled out the arrow from his chest, glad that the arrow did not hit his heart and was in danger of life. After the military doctor stopped him from bleeding, Zhao Feng stood up and wanted to continue the attack, but was stopped by the military doctor.

The guards around Zhao Feng suggested that the troops be withdrawn to the high-rise building first, and then find a place where the soldiers are easy to attack and attack into the palace from another place. Zhao Feng thought about it and thought it made sense. This was the first pass. There were four passes up. If you continue to consume this, you would open up all the relevant sentries and consume his soldiers. Moreover, now that he is injured, his body will not be able to hold on if he continues to attack. So he ordered the soldiers attacking the mountain to withdraw to the mountain.

On the way back, soldiers came to report in panic. The city gate had been broken, and Liu Yan's soldiers rushed into the castle. Zhao Feng did not believe the soldiers' reports, and asked:

"Captain Guan's soldiers are not vegetarians. Why did Liu Yan break through the city gate so quickly?"

The soldier replied: "Captain Guan has been betrayed, and he took the initiative to open the city gate and surrender to Liu Yan."

"It's over..." Zhao Feng muttered, and he immediately ordered the soldiers to rush towards Houshan Town. He wanted to join the town's mutual patrol troops and use the town's houses to start street fighting with Liu Yan.

Zhao Feng's more than 200 guards were ambushed by Liu Yan's troops halfway. Zhao Feng ordered the soldiers to resist to the death and wanted to break through the siege. Both sides launched a fierce battle. After Liu Yan commanded the soldiers to shoot violently with bows and arrows, and stabbing spears, they repelled dozens of charges from Zhao Feng's soldiers, causing more than half of them to be killed or injured.

Zhao Feng was not willing to be trapped and commanded the soldiers to break through again. Unexpectedly, Hao Qiang's guard soldiers followed the situation from the mountain road and attacked Zhao Feng's troops on both sides. Zhao Feng saw the situation and had no choice but to fight with his back. He rode his horse and raised his spear, rushed into Liu Yan's formation, thrusting left and right, trying to lead the soldiers to come out with blood.

Zhao Feng's kung fu was indeed amazing. He stabbed the soldiers who besieged him with his spear. He danced the spear to block the arrows that shot at him, opening up a way for the soldiers behind him, and was about to break out.

Suddenly, Liu Yan rode a horse with a big knife in his hand and led a cavalry to block Zhao Feng's escape. Liu Yan's big sword fought against Zhao Feng's spear. Both sides fought for more than 30 rounds and did not determine the outcome. In terms of martial arts, Zhao Feng was slightly better than Liu Yan. If Zhao Feng had not been injured in the chest, Liu Yan would not be Zhao Feng's opponent at all.

Captain Guan rode a horse and killed Fang Tianji. He joined the battle with Zhao Feng. The three of them killed the sky and the earth. Gradually, Zhao Feng's physical strength was exhausted. He held his strength and suddenly a kite turned over and stabbed Liu Yan's chest with a spear. He used his ultimate move to kill Liu Yan as soon as possible, and then rushed out of the road blocked by Liu Yan and ran towards Houshan Town.

Liu Yan saw Zhao Feng's moves, and his body flashed. He held a big knife in his hand and slashed towards Zhao Feng. Zhao Feng was too strong and saw Liu Yan's big knife slashing at him. He wanted to use his spear to open the big knife to cut off. Liu Yan's cutting power was very strong. The spear in his hand was shaken by Liu Yan's big knife. Zhao Feng immediately turned over and wanted to pick up the spear that fell on the ground. Captain Guan's Fang Tianji arrived. Zhao Feng's arm was stabbed heavily and fell to the ground. Then Liu Yan's big knife came over. Zhao Feng hurriedly rolled on the ground, picking up the big knife left by the soldiers on the ground, standing up and preparing to resist stubbornly. Unexpectedly, Hao Qiang shot him with an arrow from behind, and shot an arrow in the back. Zhao Feng wanted to struggle, so Liu Yan arrived on horseback, raised the big knife in his hand, and slashed it down, and Zhao Feng's head fell to the ground.

The guards who lost Zhao Feng quickly surrendered, and for this reason, the battle in the castle ended.

In order to celebrate the victory of winning the castle, Liu Yan demanded that pigs and sheep be killed in the castle square and a banquet be held to reward the three armies.

Hundreds of tables were placed in the square, not only the soldiers were invited to entertain the soldiers, but also the meritorious personnel who surrendered this time. Hao Qiang used a carriage to transport dozens of jars of wine to let everyone drink happily.
