Chapter 26 The Battle of the Castle
There is nothing outside the heart. Just like my heart has a thought of filial piety, filial piety is something.

When we came to the periphery of Helian Fortress, from a distance, all the cavalry surrounded the entire castle and the trees on the hill were lit. The fire spread upward along the hillside. The thick smoke filled the Helian Fortress and could only see the flag of the Golden Wolf Guard being stuck on the castle.
"From this perspective, there are tens of thousands of cavalrymen. It seems that this time, Tuli has invested a lot of money and wants to kill Jieli." Zhao Deyan observed the situation and made a judgment. "The south slope of Helianbao hills has the gentlest slope, the longest slope, the shortest north slope, and the steepest grass and trees burning among the rocks. It is difficult to burn a clear light for a while, and they will not attack for the moment."
"Then what are your plans?" Zhu Yuyan asked calmly.
"This time, thank you Master Zhu for helping you. Zhao is very grateful." Zhao Deyan thanked, "Let's go in and explore the situation first. I guess if you can last until dawn, Jie Li's reinforcements will come. If the situation is critical, we just need to rescue Jie Li. As long as he is here, there will be a chance to start over."
"According to your words," Zhu Yuyan agreed, "This place is among thousands of troops. Does the Holy Lord still need to go in and take risks? Then there will be another person who needs help."
"Zhu, now the Holy Sect has been unified. I am about to introduce the Holy Lord to Jie Li Khan. As the leader of the Holy Sect, I will naturally come forward." Zhao Deyan said in a deep voice, "This time, if Zuhu is accompanied to rescue, it can just show the strength of my Holy Sect. In the future, Zhao will also have more weight in front of Jie Li Khan."
Zhao Deyan's wishful thinking was very good. On the one hand, he used me to suppress Zhu Yuyan to prevent Zhu Yuyan from leaving halfway, and on the other hand, he used the strength of the Holy Sect to increase his personal political bargaining chips. If this rescue operation is successful, his influence on the prairie will greatly increase in the future.
We found a smoky area, and there were not many cavalry defending here. Zhao Deyan set the way in front, and Zhu Yuyan took me and the little girl from Goryeo broke the back.
Because the sword of Goryeo was broken by Yin Zuwen, the little girl in her hand was a sharp sword found in the iron shop. At this time, there was almost no one in Tongwan City, and everything could be taken in vain. I put a dagger in my arms.
The three of them were all very fast. If they tried their best to perform their body skills, they were like wind. Only then did I see Zhao Deyan's move. He saw his hands coming out, and he could not see any movement. The two cavalry were dead under his sharp claws. He threw his hands and the bodies of the two cavalry flew towards the cavalry in front. Before these two corpses landed, he had already killed the other two cavalry and threw the bodies forward. He wanted to use the corpses of the Turkic soldiers to open a road leading to Helian Fort.
According to Wanwan's introduction, Zhao Deyan's martial arts is called "Eighteen Claws of Guihun", also called "Evil Claws of Guihun". His kung fu is all over his hands. These hands are as hard as gold and stone, and even with magical weapons, he can fight for it. Moreover, his moves are domineering and ruthless, and once he takes action, it will never be merciless.
I think this is somewhat similar to Mei Chaofeng's Nine Yin White Bone Claws, but I don't know if Zhao Deyan used human skulls when practicing.
On the other hand, Zhu Yuyan held me in one hand and waved out Luoshui with only one hand. The white Luoshui seemed gentle and powerless with the spirit of the demon, but actually implied murderous intent. As long as it touched the body of the cavalry, the cavalry would die. This move was elegant and calm and full of beauty.
The beautiful fairy's Liuyun Shuixiu was learned from Zhu Yuyan. Unfortunately, Wanjing has always liked to use long whips and has not practiced much in the sleeve technique. This kind of kung fu should be learned by girls, which makes people unable to guard against and is also ornamental.
These two people are killing here, which is probably a secret battle. Both masters can infer the advancement of each other's martial arts from each other's moves over the years. In the holy sect where the strong are respected, martial arts represent everything.
The little girl from Goryeo was much more relaxed, running behind her as if nothing had happened, and occasionally swung her sword to knock down the arrow feathers. We quickly crossed the encirclement and headed towards Helian Fort along the hillside. The cavalry who reacted here began to catch up and shoot arrows.
"Listen to the Golden Wolf Army, it's me, Zhao Deyan." Zhao Deyan shouted in the air before approaching the castle.
This shout alarmed the people in Helian Castle, and several faces were exposed from the thick fog and looking towards us. To be honest, it is difficult to recognize the people opposite in this thick fog. If you don’t shout, it will easily lead to misunderstandings.
"It's really the national teacher. Don't shoot arrows, let the national teacher come in!" said a rough voice.
"Can Khan be safe?" Zhao Deyan asked anxiously.
"Haha, if you have time, the national teacher is worried. I have nothing to do. If the national teacher comes to help the battle, I will be worried." Jie Li laughed.
At this time, we arrived at the highest point of Helian Fortress. Jie Li and his men were watching here. Can this place play the role of a watchtower, and even in the thick fog, you can roughly see the surrounding layout. This sight really scared me. The surrounding area of Helian Fortress is surrounded by dense cavalry, and there are probably tens of thousands of people.
Jie Li looked at Zhao Deyan's arrival happily. The two looked at each other and laughed loudly at the same time, with a bit of mutual appreciation.
"Great Khan, this is the Lord Zhu of the Holy Sect, and he has a great power in the Central Plains." Zhao Deyan introduced enthusiastically, "This time he was invited by his subordinates to help the Khan."
"Although I am in the grassland, I have been famous for the Queen of Yin for a long time." Jie Li said excitedly, "This time, with Queen of Yin for help, why not be afraid of the rampant children in Tuli."
"The great sweat is too good." Zhu Yuyan said lightly.
"This is the Holy Lord of the Holy Sect. The Holy Lord is the common leader of my Holy Sect in Tongwancheng." Zhao Deyan explained, "This time the Holy Sect fully supports the Khan's actions."
"Oh." Jie Li was stunned for a moment, looked at Zhao Deyan, and then smiled, "That's really gratifying. I'm here to congratulate the Holy Lord."
"Thank you, Da Khan. I came on behalf of the Holy Gate this time to express the meaning of the Holy Gate. Da Khan is our friend on the grassland, and we firmly stand on Da Khan's side." I made my position, "Let's take a look at the current situation!"
"Okay, the Holy Lord is really quick to speak. Ben Khan likes cheerful men." Jie Li said generously, "This time Tuli's son gathered a group of masters to raid my camp. Ben Khan was driven here by him without any warning. There are still thousands of Turkic men in the fort. I have sent people out to ask for help. As long as I persist until dawn, I believe that reinforcements will come. Then it will be the time for our army to counterattack."
Jie Li said it easy, and it is probably not easy to use thousands of people to block the impact of tens of thousands of people. He could only rely on the solid city walls of Helian Castle to stand firm and wait for help.
Just then the sound of the trumpet sounded below, and the cavalry began to advance slowly. The drums of war sounded, and the whole prairie seemed to be shaking and trembling. The sound was terrifying. The cavalry patrolling around the hillside stopped and prepared to attack under the hillside, and the atmosphere became more and more tense.
