Kyoto City.
The originally bright sky was now covered with thick clouds.
Originally, the Han army surrounded the city with three and one missing, but now the last gap was blocked by the Han soldiers of five thousand households led by Wang Gui.
Now we are surrounded on all sides and singing Chinese songs from eight sides.
at the same time. The Han army stopped attacking. The ladder trucks, well trucks, and wooden curtain trucks were all removed, and the Han soldiers were resting or recuperating in the camp.
The bustling battlefield was quiet.
But the Fuso warriors guarding Kyoto City felt no sense of relief at all.
Ronin Inaba Kogoro raised his head, looked at the dark sky, then lowered his head and looked at the Han army camp in front, his expression was extremely solemn and his heart was very depressed.
As a poor ronin, he needed a war to get a chance to get ahead. In other words, becoming a daimyo, or even a retainer of the Toyotomi family.
So he fought desperately and stood out among the Ronin. He gained the attention of Okubo Tadamitsu and was promised that he would be accepted as a retainer of the Okubo family after the war.
But if Kyoto is defeated and Okubo Tadamitsu is killed, then this promise will be worthless.
Wu Nian's intention was too obvious, and the Han army stopped attacking again.
If Hidenobu Honda is defeated, then Kyoto will be doomed.
Now Inaba Kogoro can only place his hopes on Honda Hidenobu, the third best man in the world, the Daimyo who holds Fuso's famous spear [Leng Yanqi], the governor of the Honda family, and a peerless military commander.
He was able to defeat the Han army and successfully led his troops into Kyoto.
"Lord Honda. Everything I have is pinned on you. I hope your military fortune will be prosperous and you will defeat the Han army." Inaba Kogoro lowered his head and murmured.
In the city.
He is in charge of the Yamen. Inside the hall. Okubo Tadamitsu sat cross-legged behind the screen alone, his head slightly lowered, his face looked haggard, and his body exuded a sense of fatigue visible to the naked eye.
Use your own power to control the mob and defend Kyoto. He has tried his best.
If he wins, he will have a share of the reward based on merit.
But if it fails, there is only one way to commit seppuku.
Maybe the Okubo family will be wiped out as a result.
"Sir Hidenobu. I leave everything to you." Okubo Tadamitsu bent down and pressed his forehead against the tatami.
Royal palace, in the study.
The young Emperor Mingzheng was restless, his brows were always furrowed, and he stood up from time to time, pacing back and forth.
He stood up again, walked out of the study, came to the corridor, looked up at the dark sky, and said to himself: "It's really depressing."
Still using [Crane Sound].
The four maids serving in the study hurriedly knelt in the direction of Emperor Mingzheng. They put their white hands on their thighs and lowered their heads tightly. Their beautiful black hair fell down.
As maids in the palace, each of them is carefully selected and carefully trained.
The first one is that she looks good.
In the city of Kyoto.
Countless people have pinned their hopes on Hidenobu Honda, who is ranked third in the world, but this hope often comes to nothing.
On the city gate.
Inaba Kogoro's eyes narrowed and he shouted quickly: "Be on guard."
The soldiers of the Fuso Army guarding the city wall quickly cheered up and looked forward.
The closed door of the Han army camp suddenly opened. Then countless Han troops filed out.
There was doubt in Inaba Kogoro's eyes. The Han army did not seem to be attacking the city.
Of course the Han army was not attacking the city. They pulled out one large baggage truck after another, which was filled with the corpses of Fuso soldiers.
Then the Han soldiers piled the corpses together regardless of the stench and nausea. Put the flags on the ground.
As more and more corpses piled up, Inaba Kogoro's face became paler and paler.
The flags of the Sasaki family, the flags of the Honda family, and the flags of the Ryuzoji family.
The banners of the famous clan among these samurai, the daimyo family, were just casually planted on the ground. When finally, Hidenobu Honda's armor was found on a stand by Han soldiers and erected under the city.
Inaba Kogoro was completely shattered.
But it's not over yet. Honda Hidenobu's head and the world's famous spear [Leng Yanqie] were tied to the flagpole, and were held up by several tall and strong Han soldiers protected by shield soldiers, and appeared in front of the Fuso defenders.
"That's [Leng Yanqie], I was lucky enough to see it once."
"That's the head of Honda Hidenobu-sama, the third best person in the world. It can't be wrong. It can't be wrong. Hidenobu-sama has been defeated, and we have no hope."
"That's Lord Hidenobu's armor."
There are so many corpses of Fuso warriors, so many Fuso-style armors, so many daimyo banners, and the fragmentary objects left behind by Hidenobu Honda.
Like a huge storm, it destroyed the confidence of the Fuso defenders.
it's all over.
They won't have any more reinforcements in a short time. And the Han army is still so strong.
As long as the Han army launched an attack, they would lose.
Countless samurai, ronin, and soldiers either closed their eyes or collapsed on the ground. Some samurai even took off their armor and planned to commit seppuku.
at this time.
A Han soldier who was proficient in Fusang language, protected by shield soldiers, slowly came to the bottom of the city step by step, and shouted towards the city in fluent Fusang language: "People on the city, listen."
"The governor of the Honda family, the great lord, and the third best general in the world. Hidenobu Honda has been beheaded by our King of Han formation."
"Yes. You heard it right. The one who leads the Han army is none other than the great king of Han, King Jianwu."
"Liaodong tiger."
"Now. Our king gives you two choices. One. You resist desperately. After the Han soldiers enter the city, they will definitely take revenge."
"Two. You open the city gate and surrender. The Han army will strictly enforce military discipline and promise not to use swords on civilians."
"Our king also guarantees that as long as the emperor is willing to surrender, he will be treated with courtesy."
You can hear needle drops both above and below the city.
For a moment, it seemed that the only sound in the world was the sound of Han soldiers.
Surrender or not surrender.
This is a multiple choice question.
But the Fuso defenders showed no reaction. Their heads felt like they had been hit hard by a hammer, and they were completely stunned.
It was actually the King of Han, the King of Han who was not even famous in Fusang, who landed in Fusang, led the Han army, and came to occupy our Kyoto?
The third person in the world was beheaded by the King of Han?
A person's name, the shadow of a tree.
Wu Nian had a small reputation in Fuso, and with a small test, he defeated Honda Hidenobu, who was third in Fuso. The head is placed here and cannot be faked.
His reputation, his presence.
It was more shocking and more impactful than the piles of corpses of Fuso soldiers below the city.
Not even a drop of the psychological defense of the Fuso defenders was left.
After a long time, a warrior came to his senses, crawled down the city wall with sweating profusely, sat on his horse, and galloped towards the yamen.
It's over, it's all over.
