    Night falls and the full moon hangs high.

    It was almost May night and it was no longer cold, so it didn¡¯t have much impact on the soldiers.

    After Yan Zhong and Zhu Huai escaped for a while, they asked their soldiers to stop and rest.  All the soldiers sighed and looked decadent and miserable.

    In the battle during the day, the armies led by Yan Zhong and Zhu Huai were defeated like mountains, and those who fled to their deaths were killed. So much so that the two men now have only more than 6,000 troops around them. The losses can be said to be huge.  .

    Zhu Huai sighed and said: "General, we suffered heavy losses in this battle, and even our camp was lost. We are going to withdraw to Zhuoxian. Do you think we can withstand Wang Zongxi's attack?"

    Yan Zhong said: "If we can't stop it, we have to stop it. What's more, although we were defeated, King Zhao was not defeated. King Zhao is in Jizhou, with profound knowledge and powerful strength. Now we only need to defend Zhuoxian and wait for King Zhao's reinforcements  that is."

    Having said that, Yan Zhong still felt a little uneasy in his heart.  He came to Zhu Huai's aid on Zhang Shiqi's order, not only to help defeat Wang Zongxi, but also to control the entire Youzhou.

    Now he has failed.

    It is equivalent to saying that Zhang Shiqi¡¯s layout in Youzhou was all in vain.

    He, Yan Zhong, is the sinner.

    Yan Zhong thought for a while and then said angrily: "Speaking of which, this time it's all the fault of the Xianbei people. These people clearly promised us to help us attack Wang Zongxi. In the end, they turned against each other before the battle. It's really abominable."

    Zhu Huai was also filled with hatred and immediately echoed: "This matter is indeed caused by the Xianbei people's defection. In fact, looking back now, this matter is a bit strange."

    "You must know that King Zhao sent envoys to lobby Tuoba Chen. Although Xianbei sent people to say that they agreed to go south and would help us attack Wang Zongxi, from the beginning to the end, King Zhao's envoys never returned."

    "Obviously, he was killed by the Xianbei people, or handed over to Wang Zongxi to surrender. Otherwise, it would not be that the envoy did not come back. But at that time, we all thought it was okay and thought he was just staying in the Xianbei army, so  I just didn¡¯t care.¡±

    "Now that I think about it, the two of us are really stupid."

    Now Zhu Huai is also full of regrets.  I thought it would be easy to attack Wang Zongxi, but I didn't expect that the final result would be extremely difficult. He was calculated early.

    Yan Zhong also smiled bitterly.

    yes!

    It¡¯s stupid enough!

    Yan Zhong took a deep breath, stabilized his emotions, adjusted his state, and said solemnly: "Now that things have happened, what we have to do is to adjust our strategy, hold on with all our strength, defend Zhuoxian, and control Zhuoxian. As long as we hold on, we will wait until the king  With reinforcements, nothing is a problem. If we can't hold on, Youzhou will be completely gone."

    Zhu Huai also nodded. He was unwilling to admit defeat because he once attacked Wang Zongxi's rear and was once affiliated with Zhao Zhi. He had a grudge against the Wang family.

    Zhu Huai had no way to retreat and said: "General, keep your spirits up. We will withdraw to Zhuoxian early tomorrow morning."

    Yan Zhong nodded and said no more. He closed his eyes and rested.

    After a night of nothing, the next morning.

    It was just dawn and the night had just dispersed. The team led by Zhu Huai and Yan Zhong had already set off and quickly headed towards Zhuojun.  Retreating along the way, Zhu Huai waited until he reached Zhuojun and encountered a town, then led his soldiers to supply grain, grass and meat.

    After the soldiers had a full meal, they recovered a little.  The army continued on its way, and on May 3, the team led by Zhu Huai entered Zhuoxian and approached the county seat.

    The closer to the county seat, the more excited Zhu Huai became.

    Finally come back.

    Although he was defeated on the front line, Zhuoxian is his current base camp. A large amount of food, grass, equipment, etc. have been moved back from the former Jixian. No matter what situation he encounters, Zhuoxian can provide sufficient logistical supplies, allowing him to  Zhu Huai makes a comeback.

    Today, Zhu Huai and Yan Zhong have more than 7,600 soldiers.

    This is where some people gathered along the way. You must know that when we went there, there were nearly 60,000 people.  Now, only more than 7,000 people have returned. They have really lost their face and lost the capital to fight with Wang Zongxi.

    Although the soldiers under Zhu Huai's command were all well fed and energetic.  However, everyone's clothes were torn and worn, and they looked very embarrassed at this time.

    Zhu Huai rode his horse to the city gate and shouted: "The king is back, open the city gate."

    "The king returns to the city and opens the city gate!"

    On the city tower, some soldiers shouted.

    With this cryThe city gate opened with a creak, revealing an empty and spacious urn city.  Zhuo County, as the seat of Zhuo County, is also a strong city. It is for this reason that Zhu Huai regarded it as the temporary capital of the Yan Kingdom.

    When Zhu Huai saw the city gate open, without any doubt, he immediately ordered: "Enter the city!"

    Yan Zhong and his men hurried on quickly. More than 7,000 soldiers rushed to the city and entered the city in a short time.

    Boom!  !  !

    After everyone entered the Wengcheng, within a moment, the thousand-jin gate at the city gate fell with a clang.  When the voice came out, many people turned around to look, including Yan Zhong.

    Everyone looked back and saw the blocked door and the fallen gate.

    Yan Zhong became nervous for a moment, and quickly looked towards the city gate leading to the inner city. He suddenly discovered that the inner city gate that had been open before was now closed.

    Yan Zhong, Zhu Huai and others were completely surrounded and became turtles in a jar.

    "Hahaha, Yan Zhong and Zhu Huai, I have been here for a long time, waiting for you."

    A loud voice sounded from the city tower.

    A scribe stood on the tower. This person was Fan Yong.  When he was lurking in Fanyang County under Wang Qi's order, he kept a low profile and never exposed his identity.

    Now he acted under the orders of Zhou Zishan, and went north under the pretense of Zhu Huai's orders. He captured Zhuoxian County with one move, held Zhuoxian County in his hands, and then quietly ambush on the city tower.

    Fan Yong had no unnecessary nonsense and ordered: "Archers, release arrows!"

    On the city tower, archers stood up one by one and shot arrows into the city.  Because there were many soldiers from Yan and Zhao entering the city, more than 7,000 people. When there were more people, they gathered together. There was no need to aim the bows and arrows, they just needed to keep shooting.

    Under such circumstances, dense bows and arrows fell on the crowd, and screams could be heard one after another.

    There were countless dead and injured people.

    Soldiers one after another were shot and killed.

    Yan Zhong¡¯s face was livid, and he was not willing to be defeated. He quickly said: ¡°Everyone listen to my orders and follow me to the tower. If we go up the street and kill, we still have a chance to reverse the situation. Follow me and kill!¡±

    As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Zhong took the lead and charged out first.  He was wearing a helmet and a golden armor, and he was holding a large sword. His expression was sharp, and Yan Zhong's identity could be understood at a glance without any need for identification.

    Fan Yong looked very calm when he saw Yan Zhong brave the rain of arrows and take the lead to kill.  He looked at Feng Fenglei, who was looking serious, and said, "Feng Fenglei, it's up to you now."

    "no problem!"

    Feng Fenglei answered immediately.

    In the past, Feng Fenglei was a first-class master in Fanyang County. By virtue of his submission to Queen Wang Qi, he gained more resources and now has entered the Grandmaster realm and become a Grandmaster realm master.  His archery skills were quite good. As soon as he heard Fan Yong's words, he immediately drew his bow and arrow and aimed at Yan Zhong who was coming to kill him.

    Yan Zhong was extremely fast. He swung his sword to deflect the incoming bows and arrows. In a blink of an eye, he had already reached the Chi Road and was already sprinting towards the Chi Road.

    "middle!"

    Feng Fenglei took aim and let go of his hand, and the arrow was like a shooting star.

    The bow and arrow made a sound as they streaked through the air, and in an instant they were in front of Yan Zhong.

    "A little trick!"

    Yan Zhong resisted the other messy bows and arrows, but also noticed that the bow and arrow that had just been shot were different.  He growled lowly, swung his long knife, and swung it out violently.

    "Snapped!"

    There was a crisp sound.

    The blade hit the arrow shaft, sending the bow and arrow flying.

    Yan Zhong raised his head and looked ahead, and saw no soldiers coming down to block the road leading to the city tower, only a few rows of resisting horses.  A sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, thinking of using a few horses to stop him, and letting some archers stop him, that was a fool's dream.

    He will definitely go to the tower and kill the person who fired the cold arrow.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
