In the middle of the night on January 16, 427 of the Great Jin Dynasty, outside the northwest corner of the palace of Zhuqicheng, a large group of heavily armed warriors suddenly appeared, and these warriors were the rescue team composed of the Holy Fire Sect's Holy Fire Guardians and the masters of the Gaochang Kingdom.

"Quick, while the patrol of the Jin people has just passed, hurry up and enter the palace!" Rashid, the head of the Holy Land Guard of the Eastern Diocese of the Holy Fire Sect, commanded in a low voice.
Some of the Holy Fire Guardians of the Holy Fire Sect and the masters of the Gaochang Kingdom took out the flying hooks one after another and threw them on the inner city wall more than four meters high, so that the hooks of the flying hooks hung on the city wall, and then these Holy Fire Guards and the masters of the Gaochang Kingdom followed the rope of the flying hook and quickly climbed towards the city wall, and soon one hundred and forty Holy Fire Guards and eighty masters of the Gaochang Kingdom all turned into the palace, and in order to avoid being discovered by the patrol outside the palace wall, they put away the flying hooks.
After entering the palace safely, the leaders of the four rescue teams, Rashid, Merzug, Adufu and Said, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, if they could rescue the holy Maiden Agu Yili and Hanati Lamu without alarming the people of the Jin Kingdom, it would be the most perfect.
After the Guardians of the Holy Flame and the masters of the Gaochang Kingdom climbed over the wall and entered the palace, a person immediately walked out of the bushes, and Rashid immediately made a gesture to the crowd, meaning that it was his own person.
"How many Jin soldiers are guarding that palace tonight?" Rashid asked in a whisper to the man who had suddenly appeared.
"Your Excellency Rashid, there is also a wall outside that palace, and there are four Jin soldiers standing guard at the gate of the wall, as for how many people are inside the wall, I haven't found out, and every once in a while, there will be a patrol in the palace that passes through the gate of that palace."
Rashid immediately did not hesitate, "Quick! You lead the way immediately! ”
After the Sacred Flame Guards and the masters of the Gaochang Kingdom arrived outside the palace wall where the Holy Maiden Agu Yili and Hanatiram might be imprisoned, Rashid pointed to the four Jin soldiers standing guard at the gate of the wall, and waved his hand behind him, followed by four gold-level Sacred Fire Guards, tiptoeing towards the gate of the wall.
After these four gold-level Flame Guards sneaked up to the gate of the wall, they dealt with one by one, and easily killed the four Jin soldiers standing guard, and barely made a sound.
The two gates of the wall were closed, but a gold-level holy flame guard gently pushed it with his hand, and found that the two gates were hidden, he gently pushed one gate open a gap, and looked into the courtyard, and found that it was pitch black inside, and he could vaguely see that there were two Jin soldiers standing at the gate of the palace.
The gold-level Flame Guardian turned to Rashid and made a gesture to them, and then Rashid, Merzug, Adufu, and Said, with a large number of Flame Guards and Gao Changguo masters, quietly gathered at the gate of the wall.
Rashid took a look at the situation inside through the gap in the gate of the wall, and then summoned two Diamond-level Flame Guards with great archery skills to his side, and made a few gestures, and then the two Diamond-level Flame Guards took the bow and arrow from their backs, and put the arrows directly on the bowstring, and stood in front of the two gates of the wall.
Rashid stood in the middle of the two Diamond-level Flame Guards, put the long knife in his hand behind his back, and then quickly pushed open the two gates of the wall with both hands, and at the same time as the two gates were pushed open, the two arrows of the two Diamond-level Flame Guards shot out.
The two Jin soldiers standing at the gate of the palace heard the sound of the door opening, and as soon as they turned their heads, two arrows pierced their necks respectively.
Seeing that the two Jin soldiers standing guard at the gate of the palace were shot dead, Rashid drew his long knife and rushed into the courtyard where the palace was located, and a large number of holy fire guards and Gaochang masters rushed in after Rashid.
However, when Rashid led a large number of Holy Fire Guards and Gaochang Kingdom masters to approach the palace with only a dozen steps left, the gate of the palace and a large row of windows suddenly opened, and hundreds of soldiers of the Guardian Battalion of the Hawks' Army held crossbow arrows in their hands, facing the approaching uninvited guests.
"First row, launch!" "Second row, launch!" "Third row, launch!" ……
In an instant, wave after wave of crossbow arrows shot at the Holy Fire Sect's Holy Fire Guardians and the masters of Gao Changguo, and the screams one after another immediately rang out.
Rashid used the long knife in his hand to constantly fend off the crossbow arrows that came at him, and at the same time shouted loudly: "Rush into the palace and kill all the people of the Jin Kingdom!" ”
Thanks to Rashid's quick reaction, he rushed to the front and was not hit by the crossbow arrow, but more than two dozen people had fallen behind him.
At this time, Said, the commander of the Gaochang Kingdom next to him, shouted urgently: "We are in ambush, let's withdraw first!" ”
"Her Royal Highness Agu Yili and Viscount Hanatiramu are likely to be inside, let's go in and save people!" The deputy head of the Holy Land Guard in the northeastern diocese of the Holy Fire Sect, Adufu, shouted loudly.
"I'll take people to block the reinforcements of the Jin people, and you guys will take down the palace as soon as possible!" After saying loudly, Merzug, the deputy head of the Holy Land Guard of the Southeast Diocese of the Holy Fire Sect, rushed to the outside of the palace wall with a large number of Holy Fire Guards of the Southeast Diocese.
Chi Yuan, the captain of the guards battalion in the palace, looked at the enemy who was still risking death to rush to the palace outside, a slight sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he continued to order the soldiers of the guard battalion in the palace to fire crossbow arrows.
After Liu Ji captured the palace of the king of Zhuqi, he only eliminated the royal family of Zhuqi's country, and as for the servants in the original palace, Liu Ji stayed in some of them, and the rest were dismissed.
And the main reason why Liu Ji left these servants who originally wished him the king's palace, in addition to the fact that such a large palace must have servants to work, is that Liu Ji hopes that someone can spread the news that Agu Yili and Hanatilam are locked up in a certain palace, and lure the people of the Holy Fire Sect and Gaochang Kingdom to come to this palace to save people.
Of course, this palace is a trap carefully prepared by Liu Ji for the people of the Holy Fire Sect and Gaochang Kingdom, Agu Yili and Hanati Lamu are not here at all, Agu Yili and Liu Ji live together, as for Hanati Lamu, they have long been slaughtered.
At this time, in this palace, Wei Chi Yuan, a first-class general, led four hundred soldiers of the guard battalion equipped with strong crossbows, divided into eight rows, forming a continuous firepower, and suppressed the holy fire guards and Gao Changguo masters who rushed towards the palace, and many holy fire guards and Gao Changguo masters were killed or injured by crossbow arrows.
Around the courtyard of this palace, Liu Ji also secretly arranged a thousand soldiers of the Guards Battalion, these soldiers are also equipped with crossbow arrows, led by Gao Chong and Luo Kun, two top generals, to deal with the martial arts of the Holy Fire Sect and Gao Changguo, Liu Ji hopes to use the crossbow arrow array to solve them.
The Holy Fire Guardians of the Holy Fire Sect and the masters of Gao Changguo, although they are all strong in martial arts, and they are not afraid of life and death, but in the face of the crossbow arrow array commanded by Wei Chi Yuan, there is no way at all, after paying the price of dozens of people, Rashid and the others finally know that they will not be able to attack the palace if they rush so hard.
A gold-level Sacred Flame Guard with two crossbow arrows stuck in his body rushed in from the gate of the palace wall and shouted loudly: "Captain Rashid, there are a large number of Jin soldiers outside, all equipped with crossbow arrows, and the Holy Land Guards of our Southeast Diocese can't stop it!" ”
