As the first rays of sunlight touched the earthen walls of Wolf Head Fortress, Li Tian and his six soldiers were already fast asleep, leaning against the walls.

Suddenly, the sound of rapid hoofbeats woke Li Tian from his sleep.

Li Tian was the first to get up. He peered over the wall and saw two cavalrymen riding fast horses charging toward them.

The cavalrymen wore brand-new leather armor, carried large swords on their backs, and had two large wooden barrels tied to the back of one of their warhorses, presumably to deliver food.

"Hey guys, wake up! Lu Zhao'an's men are here."

Li Tian whispered something to Wu Laoliu and the others, who immediately woke up, rubbed their eyes, and joined Li Tian as they peered over the earthen wall to watch.

"Only two people came, Corporal. What do we do?" Wu Laoliu said casually. For them, who had killed scout squads before, ordinary soldiers were no longer a threat.

Li Tian looked around and said to Zhao Yong and Chen Junshan, "You two get ready and shoot with your bows and arrows to keep these two guys here."

"Lu Zhaoan dared to seize our Wolf Head Fortress, it's time to teach him a lesson."

Zhao Yong and Chen Junshan nodded, took the large bow off their backs, and quietly moved away.

"Brothers of Wolfhead Fortress, I've brought you food. Hurry up and lower the drawbridge."

Two cavalrymen quickly arrived under the drawbridge, one of them craning his neck and shouting towards it.

Whizzing!

Two cold arrows flew out from behind the earthen wall.

One of them shot the cavalryman in the throat, and the cavalryman fell off his horse without uttering a sound.

The other man, however, was shot in the shoulder. He turned his horse around and immediately fled.

"unlucky!"

Zhao Yong cursed under his breath, then drew his bow again and aimed at the fleeing man's back.

Whoosh!

The arrow flew like a shooting star.

The arrow pierced the man's neck, causing him to fall from his horse. The wooden bucket on the horse's back also fell off and rolled several times on the ground.

Zhao Yong then put away his bow and arrows with satisfaction and sat down behind the earthen wall.

"Sergeant, what should we do next?"

Wu Laoliu didn't participate in this hunt, but he was eager to fight, so he couldn't help but ask.

"That brat Lu Zhaoan has lost two more men, he will definitely send more men to besiege our Wolf Head Fortress."

"Everyone, get your spirits up and your weapons ready. This time, we're going to give Lu Zhaoan a good beating."

Li Tian said casually.

.......

The news that the two cavalrymen who delivered the food had died did not reach the vanguard camp until noon.

The reason was that the vanguard battalion had been waiting for the two food-delivering cavalrymen to return to their unit for a long time, but they never came, so they sent out scouts to check.

They discovered that the two cavalrymen who delivered the food had died under the drawbridge at Wolf Head Fortress.

The rebel flag was raised again on Wolf Head Fortress.

They then learned that Wolf Head Fortress had been recaptured by Li Tian and his gang.

"But it might not be appropriate to report this directly to Lieutenant Lu!"

The scout in charge of the reconnaissance was very uneasy.

He knew that Lieutenant Lu was furious about Miss Qin Shuang's disappearance.

If you hear that Wolf Head Castle has been taken over by that kid Li Tian again, what would you do?

I wonder how angry she'll get.

"But if you don't report this to Lu Zhaoan, you'll lose your head."

After thinking it over for a while, the scout reluctantly opened Lu Zhao'an's tent.

"Captain, Wolf Head Fortress has been captured by Li Tian's gang. The thirteen brothers we left there to guard the fortress are probably in grave danger."

"We lost two more brothers this morning, shot down under the suspension bridge," the scout whispered.

"What did you say?!"

Lu Zhaoan, who was looking at the map, suddenly raised his head, his eyes flashing with murderous intent.

"Wolf Head Castle has been taken back by Li Tian again?"

"When did this happen?"

"It must have happened last night. When we delivered food yesterday, Wolf Head Castle was still in our hands."

boom!

Lu Zhaoan kicked over a low table in the tent and started cursing.

"Li Tian, ​​you little brat, you've gone too far! If I, Lu Zhaoan, don't kill you, I swear I'm not a man."

He paced back and forth in his tent somewhat anxiously, then suddenly waved his arm.

"Pass down my order: assemble one hundred cavalrymen. Today I will once again raze Wolf Head Fortress to the ground."

"yes!"

The scouts retreated silently.

Lu Zhaoan's mood gradually calmed down.

Wolfhead Fortress has fewer than ten people.

He has thirty times the troops of Wolfhead Fortress.

Even if Li Tian temporarily takes Wolf Head Fortress, so what?

In the end, it was still a loss.

But Miss Qin Shuang...

The thought of Qin Shuang gave Lu Zhaoan a headache, and he slumped down in his deerskin chair.

.......

At noon, a large group of cavalrymen set off from the vanguard camp.

Lu Zhaoan personally led the team.

He vowed to retake Wolf's Head Castle.

On Wolf Head Fortress, Li Tian and the others had slept all morning and had lunch, so they were full of energy.

Suddenly, the earth trembled, and a group of cavalrymen charged menacingly toward them.

The soldiers at Wolf Head Fortress were immediately awakened and peered over the wall.

A cavalry force of about a hundred men charged menily toward them.

The cavalrymen on horseback were clad in full armor, and the lead cavalryman carried a large banner with a huge character "陆" (Lu) on it.

"It's that kid Lu Zhaoan who's here."

"Brothers, get ready, get ready, let's give Lu Zhaoan a good drink."

Li Tian burst into laughter.

Before long, Lu Zhaoan's men arrived and saw that the rebel army's flag was indeed fluttering on the wall.

Lu Zhaoan felt his blood rush to the top of his head.

Deceiving too much!

Li Tian has gone too far!

He said he wanted to take Wolf's Head Castle back into his hands.

He actually did it in less than seven days.

This is something no military commander could tolerate.

Lu Zhaoan spurred his horse forward and shouted at the top of the wall, "Li Tian, ​​I don't know what despicable means you used to seize Wolf Head Fortress."

"But you only have ten men under your command. I advise you to lower the drawbridge and surrender obediently. Otherwise, once my cavalry launches an attack, you will surely die."

"Ha ha!"

Li Tian laughed as he stood up from behind the earthen wall. "Lu Zhaoan, you lost Wolf Head Fortress because your men were incompetent. If you're so capable, then take Wolf Head Fortress back honorably."

"Trying to persuade me to surrender? Heh heh, you think you can stop killing me if I surrender? Dream on!"

At the same time, Li Tian whispered an order to Wu Laoliu and the others who were squatting beside him, "Load all the repeating crossbows. When Lu Zhaoan's cavalry charges, shoot them as many as you can."

Wu Laoliu and the others nodded slightly and began to draw their bows.

"Li Tian, ​​you really don't know what's good for you. Since that's the case, you can just wait to be trampled into mincemeat by my cavalry."

Lu Zhaoan was so angry at Li Tian's words that he almost fell off his horse.

He rode his warhorse around twice, then turned back to camp and gave orders to his soldiers.

"First, send the cavalry forward for a volley of mounted archery, then send men to seize the drawbridge. We must slaughter this Wolf Head Fortress again today."
