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, and still did not take the city gate, and the losses on both sides were not small, with nearly 100 dead and wounded. In order to capture the castle, Liu Yan completely broke with the Immortal Kingdom, and almost spared no blood. The besieging officers and soldiers were already tired, and his men suggested that they take a break before attacking the city.

Liu Yan disagreed, and ordered his men to continue the siege of the city, not to give the other party a chance to kick. 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 would have 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 castle gate, the officers and soldiers of Hao Qiang's guard troops planted in the palace began to mutiny, and they fought with Hao Qiang's small detachment, killed the military division, and quickly occupied the palace. Hao Qiang raised the skull banner at the gate of the palace and lit a blazing fire signal on the beacon tower of the sentry box on the mountain road leading to the kingdom, reporting to Liu Yan's troops outside the city that they had captured the palace.

Zhao Feng, who was commanding the defense of the city, stood on the city wall and ordered the soldiers to shoot Liu Yan's soldiers who were besieging the city with bows and arrows, when suddenly, a soldier came up to him and reported:

"Report to the king, the palace has been occupied by Hao Qiang and his group."

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

The soldier pointed to several beacon towers next to the sentry box on the road leading to the kingdom, and said:

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

Zhao Feng saw several beacon towers on the city wall that lit fire signals, and he secretly cursed in his heart: [Hao Qiang, you guy, I really regret that I didn't execute you immediately. 】

Zhao Feng was calm on the surface, but he began to panic in his heart, he had to recapture the palace, which was a symbol of mutual assistance. He left some of the soldiers for the captain of the palace guard, and ordered him to continue to defend the city, and the rest of the officers and soldiers ran with him with all their strength towards the palace mountain road, and he vowed to take the palace back.

The mountain of the palace was difficult to attack, and Hao Qiang had already arranged for archers to wait for Zhao Feng's guards to arrive at various crossings. When Zhao Feng's guards reached the entrance of the first sentry box, they were stopped by Hao Qiang's archers, and dozens of soldiers were killed and wounded, but they could not attack the sentry box. Zhao Feng was in a hurry, he personally picked up the big knife, shouted, and led the soldiers to rush forward, wanting to rush out of a bloody way.

Zhao Feng's speed is very fast, the light skill is very good, but the mountain road is steep, the pass is narrow, he rushed up more than 20 stone steps in a row, and he was about to reach the sentry box, but he was shot by a rain arrow, he struggled to push it away with a big knife, but was shot in the left chest by an arrow. Zhao Feng didn't care about his injuries, and wanted to rush to the sentry box in one go, but he suddenly pushed down a few big boulders on the mountain and smashed them towards him, and everywhere he went, no one could stop him, Zhao Feng had to quickly dodge, making him extremely embarrassed, and finally he couldn't carry out a high-intensity attack due to his injuries, so he had to retreat down the mountain.

Zhao Feng returned to the bottom of the mountain, and the military doctor pulled out the arrow on his chest, fortunately the arrow did not hit his heart, and his life was in danger. After the military doctor bandaged him, Zhao Feng stood up and still wanted to continue the attack, but was stopped by the military doctor.

The guards beside Zhao Feng suggested that the troops should be withdrawn to the high-rise building first, and then find an easy place to attack the palace from elsewhere after the soldiers had rested. Zhao Feng thought about it and felt that it made sense, this is still the first pass, and there are still four passes to go up, and if it is consumed like this, all the outposts will be cleared, and his soldiers will also be consumed. Besides, now that he's injured, his body won't be able to support it if he continues to attack. So, he ordered the siegers to withdraw to the bottom of the mountain.

On the way back, a soldier came in a panic to report that the city gate had been breached, and Liu Yan's soldiers drove straight into the castle. Zhao Feng did not believe the soldier's report 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 already defected, and it was he who took the initiative to open the city gate and surrender to Liu Yan." ”

"It's over......" Zhao Feng muttered in his mouth, he immediately ordered the soldiers to hurry up in the direction of Houshan Town, he wanted to join the patrol force of the town's mutual aid gang, and use the town's houses to start a street battle with Liu Yan.

Zhao Feng's more than 200 guards were ambushed by Liu Yan's troops halfway through. Zhao Feng ordered the soldiers to resist desperately, wanting to fight their way out of the encirclement, and the two sides launched a fierce fight. After Liu Yan commanded the soldiers to shoot fiercely with bows and arrows, as well as spear stabs, they repelled dozens of charges of Zhao Feng's soldiers, causing more than half of Zhao Feng's soldiers to be killed and wounded.

Zhao Feng was not willing to be trapped, and commanded the soldiers to break through again. Unexpectedly, Hao Qiang's guards descended from the mountain road and killed them from behind, attacking Zhao Feng's troops on both sides. Zhao Feng looked at the situation, he only had a battle against the water, he rode a horse and held a spear, rushed into Liu Yan's formation, stabbed left and right, and wanted to lead the soldiers to kill a blood.

Zhao Feng's kung fu was indeed good, the soldiers besieging him were all stabbed by him with spears, and he danced his spears to block the arrows that shot at him, opening up a way for the soldiers behind him to move forward, and they were about to kill a way.

Suddenly, Liu Yan rode a horse and held a broadsword, leading a cavalry to block Zhao Feng's escape, Liu Yan's broadsword against Zhao Feng's spear, the two sides launched a life-and-death battle, and the two sides fought back and forth for more than 30 rounds without winning or losing. In terms of martial arts, Zhao Feng is slightly better than Liu Yan, if it weren't for Zhao Feng's arrow wound in the chest, Liu Yan would not be Zhao Feng's opponent at all.

Captain Guan rode a horse and killed Fang Tianhalberd, he joined the battle with Zhao Feng, the three of them killed in the dark, and gradually Zhao Feng's physical strength was exhausted, he held back his strength and violently turned over with a harrier and stabbed Liu Yan in the chest with a spear, he used a trick to kill Liu Yan as soon as possible, and then rushed out of the road blocked by Liu Yan and fled in the direction of Houshan Town.

Liu Yan saw Zhao Feng's moves, his body flashed, and he held a big knife to slash at Zhao Feng, Zhao Feng saw Liu Yan's big knife slashing at him because he used too much force, and wanted to use a spear to pick up the big knife that was chopped down, Liu Yan's cut down was very powerful, the spear held by Zhao Feng was shocked to the ground by Liu Yan's big knife, Zhao Feng turned over on the horse and wanted to pick up the spear that fell to the ground, Captain Guan's Fang Tian halberd was killed, Zhao Feng's arm was stabbed heavily and fell to the ground, and then Liu Yan's big knife was slashed over, Zhao Feng hurriedly rolled on the spot, He picked up the big knife left on the ground by the soldier on the ground, stood up and prepared to resist stubbornly, but was unexpectedly killed by Hao Qiang with an arrow from behind, and an arrow was shot in the back of the heart. Zhao Feng wanted to struggle, but Liu Yan arrived on horseback, raised a big knife in his hand, and went down with a knife, and Zhao Feng's head fell to the ground.

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

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

Hundreds of tables were set up in the square, not only to entertain the officers and men of the troops, but also to include all the meritorious personnel who surrendered to the army. Hao Qiang used a horse-drawn cart to transport dozens of jars of wine for everyone to drink happily.

Liu Yanshou happily raised his wine glass and climbed onto the specially built high platform with a smile on his face to toast everyone:

"Come on! Cheers to our victory in the castle and to the upcoming Skull Nation! ”

The officers and soldiers shouted:

"Long live the Skull Nation!"

"Long live Liu Yan!"

……

Liu Yan drank the wine in his hand very boldly, and the soldiers drank the wine in their hands with it. Before the election of the king of the castle began, many soldiers had already begun to identify Liu Yan as king, and they shouted:

"Liu Yan, King!"

"Long live the King!"

Liu Yan thought that he was already a king, and raised his wine glass and drank two glasses in a row. At the instigation of Liu Yan, the soldiers drank and danced in the square, and carnivaled to their heart's content.

Hao Qiang did not join the carnival, today he took the initiative to lead his troops to patrol the city gate and the castle. He did this to prevent the miniature people from sneaking up on the castle, leaving a garrison to guard the gates. He agreed with Liu Yan that after the officers and soldiers in the square had drunk enough, he would rotate their troops defending the city to drink.

Liu Yan, who has always drunk too much, this time the amount of alcohol was not good, he only drank three glasses before he felt dizzy, his eyes could not be opened, he could not control his body and fell on the stage, half of the nearly 1,000 officers and soldiers in the audience drank and drank and fell down. When the officers and soldiers woke up, they found them tied up and locked up in a cattle and sheep pen.

It turned out that more than 500 officers and soldiers under Liu Yan were all drugged, of which nearly 200 were soldiers of the mutual aid gang who originally came to Chengcheng, and they were screened and untied, and the remaining miniature people who followed Liu Yan in the living cabin were third-class citizens and miniature people in the fairy cave, adding up to more than 300 people, all of whom were disarmed by Hao Qiang's soldiers as prisoners, and sent to the cattle and sheep pen as slaves, and cattle and horses for the king.

Liu Yan and several of his right-hand men were tied up and escorted to the cage of the Colosseum.

Liu Yan, who was locked in a cage, was very unconvinced, and when he saw Hao Qiang, who came to visit him, he scolded:

"Hao Qiang! You are a despicable villain, you must not die well! You let me out, and we'll duel one-on-one alone. ”

Hao Qiang sneered: "How can a person like you who can only fight and kill be the king of our Skull Country, you owe the blood debt of the Mutual Aid Gang, and you must repay it." Let you also taste what it is like to be killed. ”

Liu Yan originally had a bad reputation in the dungeon, and he had hurt the people of the mutual aid gang, and many people in the mutual aid gang hated him. Hao Qiang used the excuse that Liu Yan had killed his compatriots in the Mutual Aid Gang, and held a public trial meeting in the square of the castle.

Liu Yan and several of his accomplices were weak after drinking the soft and crispy water, and they were escorted to the judgment seat in the square. Liu Yan and several of his accomplices were sentenced to death for hacking and injuring more than 30 members of the mutual aid gang, and were hanged on the day of the sentencing meeting.

After Liu Yan was executed, Hao Qiang naturally became the king of the Skull Country.

The people in the castle rejoiced and applauded the killing of Zhao Feng and Liu Yan, but since Hao Qiang became the king, he was more brutal than Zhao Feng, he practiced slavery in the castle, all the land and houses in the castle, including the captured soldiers, belonged to Hao Qiang and his cronies, in the castle Hao Qiang alone had the final say, he could kill people at will, the people had no right to speak, anyone who slandered the king or did things that damaged the skull country must be punished, and the serious ones were reduced to slaves, which made the people in the castle panic, dare not speak out, Hao Qiang, the king of the Skull Country, made the people of the earth planet who once lived in the era of primary civilization regress to the slave society overnight, which made it difficult for the people in the castle to accept, and they were very disappointed in what Hao Qiang did, and the people's rebellious hearts became stronger and stronger, and they began to yearn for the life of the fairy country.
