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. Ladder trucks, well trucks, and wooden curtain trucks were all withdrawn. The Han army soldiers were resting or recuperating in the camp.

The noisy battlefield was quiet.

But the Fuso warriors guarding Kyoto City felt no sense of relief at all.

The 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 needs a war to get a chance to stand out. That is to become 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 after the war, he would be accepted as a retainer of the Okubo family.

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 hope on Honda Hidenobu, the third best man in the world, holding the famous Fuso gun [Cold Kiri], 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 that your military fortune will be prosperous and that you will defeat the Han army." Inaba Kogoro lowered his head and murmured.

In the city.

In the office hall of the office, Okubo Tadamitsu sat cross-legged behind the screen, his head slightly lowered, his face looked haggard, and he exuded a sense of fatigue visible to the naked eye.

He single-handedly controlled the mob to defend Kyoto. He had 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 option: 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, inside the study.

The young Emperor Meisho 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."

The one still used is [Crane Sound].

The four maids serving in the study hurriedly knelt in the direction of Emperor Meisho, putting their white hands on their thighs, lowering their heads tightly, and their beautiful black hair hanging 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 quickly shouted: "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 soldiers filed out.

Inaba Kogoro's eyes were filled with doubts. The Han army did not seem to be attacking the city.

Of course, the Han army was not attacking the city. They came out with heavy baggage carts filled with the corpses of Fuso soldiers.

Then, regardless of the stench and nausea, the Han soldiers piled the corpses together and planted the flags on the ground.

As more and more corpses piled up, Inaba Kogoro's face became paler and paler.

The flag of the Sasaki family, the flag of the Honda family, and the flag of the Ryuzoji family.

The banners of the daimyo family, the most famous among these samurai, were placed on the ground casually. When finally, the Han army soldiers found a stand for Honda Hidenobu's armor and erected it under the city.

Inaba Kogoro completely collapsed.

But it’s not over yet. Hidenobu Honda’s head, as well as the world’s famous gun [Lengyanqie], were tied to the flagpole, and were held up by several tall and strong Han soldiers protected by shield soldiers, and appeared in

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 soldiers, 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 will not receive any more reinforcements in a short period of 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.

Just then.

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 name, and the third best military commander in the world. Honda Hidenobu has been killed by our Han King formation."

"Yes. You heard it right. The leader of 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."

"2. You open the city gates and surrender. The Han army must enforce military discipline and promise not to wield swords against civilians."

"Our king also promises that as long as the emperor is willing to surrender, he will be treated with courtesy."

You can hear the drop of a needle 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, don't surrender.

This is a multiple choice question.

But the Fuso defenders didn't react at all. Their heads felt as if 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 famous even in Fusang, who landed in Fusang and led the Han army 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 beheaded Honda Hidenobu, the third-ranked Fuso man. His head was placed here, and it couldn't be faked.

His reputation, his existence.

It was more shocking and more impactful than the piles of corpses of Fuso soldiers under 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. He was sweating profusely and climbed down the city wall. He got on his horse and galloped towards the yamen.
