Chapter 417: To Go or Not to Go
When Zhu Xinghe reacted and looked at the city gate, he found that this huge Kyoto city gate had been blown out of a big hole!
The defenders around the city gate were dead and wounded, and they looked particularly miserable.
And Xia Yuan, who was above the city tower, was also dumbfounded: "What...... How so?! ”
Ling Tian laughed coldly, and pulled out his sword from his side, but it was actually their guards who snatched the door from the capital and protected them!
Not to mention Xia Yuan, even Zhu Xinghe was extremely surprised when he saw such a scene: when did Ling Tianhan arrange these people in Beijing? How could he blow open the gate of Beijing so easily?!
Ling Tianhan looked at Xia Yuan's shocked appearance and sneered: "This is still the back road that Prince Ping has left for himself all these years!" Such a measure of gunpowder is also a loss to him to be able to get his hands on. But now I want to thank him for making a wedding dress for this king! ”
This made Zhu Xinghe not expect, and naturally Xia Yuan would not have thought that such gunpowder was actually arranged by Prince Ping!
When Ling Tianhan was about to go to the capital, Xia Yuan finally reacted, drew the order flag on the side, and waved it at his head: "Stop him, stop them for me, don't let anyone enter the capital!" ”
"Bang-"
However, as he pulled out the Command Flag, a chilling orange flare bloomed in the sky. The meaning of this flare is: The gate of Kyoto has been opened, and the army can enter Beijing!
It won't be too long before the 50,000 people of Zhenyuan's army will swarm in.
Xia Yuan never expected that the door of Kyoto would be opened so easily by Ling Tianhan!
He hurriedly ran down the city tower, but Zhu Xinghe saw that Ling Tianhan was not in a hurry to enter the city, thinking that it would be safe to wait until the army arrived here.
Xia Yuan hurriedly ran down from the city tower, and Zhu Xinghe also found that this city defender army that should have belonged to the royal family was all back to Prince Ping's men and horses at this moment. He didn't know how many years he had been preparing for this day.
And Ling Tianhan slowly walked towards the gate of the city, and saw that Xia Yuan also led his troops to come, blocked the city, and looked at Ling Tianhan firmly: "Please stay, Your Highness!" If His Highness goes further, his subordinates will have to ignore their kindness! ”
In fact, Zhu Xinghe was very curious, what was the reason why Xia Yuan was so loyal to Prince Ping, and he could even ignore Ling Tianhan, the life-saving benefactor!
But Ling Tianhan didn't care so much, he only raised the long sword in his hand and aimed it at Xia Yuan: "If you still want this life, let this king get out of the way!" Today, this king wants to enter Beijing, and no one can stop him! ”
He had such a decisive temperament that Zhu Xinghe, who was standing behind him, couldn't help but shiver.
In Xia Yuan's eyes, there was also fear.
In the past, on the battlefield, he had seen Ling Tianhan's decisive killing.
But even if he was afraid, Xia Yuan did not flinch, but instead had an expression of looking at death as if he were at home: "His Royal Highness King Han, it should be regarded as a subordinate begging you, stand back!" If you don't get involved in the battle between Prince Ping and Prince Xun, any of them who sit in that position in the future will not be disadvantaged to His Royal Highness King Han! ”
Xia Yuan's words are true, even if Prince Ping ascends to the throne in the future, I am afraid that he will be afraid of Ling Tianhan and take the power in Ling Tianhan's hands, but he will never take Ling Tianhan's life. may even give Ling Tianhan a large rich fief, as long as he is an idle prince.
But he is Ling Tianhan, how can he retreat?
Ling Tianhan's eyes were already a little impatient, and he was also giving Xia Yuan a final order: "One last question for you, do you let it go or not?" If you still want to save your life, it's best not to get in the way of this king. ”
Xia Yuan's eyes gave birth to a little sadness: "Subordinate...... I'm afraid that I will live up to the rescue of the prince that day! ”
He knew that he couldn't fight Ling Tianhan, but he still raised the spear in his hand and aimed it at Ling Tianhan: "It's also an honor for my subordinates to have a competition with the prince's soldiers!" ”
"Ahh
With a shout from him, the spear in his hand also came straight towards Ling Tianhan-
Zhu Xinghe was surrounded in the center of the guards, guarded by Shuangxi himself, so naturally Ling Tianhan didn't have to worry about anything.
Zhu Xinghe knew that Ling Tianhan's martial arts were very strong, but he still didn't expect it, but after a moment's effort, the long sword in Ling Tianhan's hand disappeared into Xia Yuan's chest!
Before Xia Yuan even had time to resist, his eyes were full of despair.
The long sword pierced Xia Yuan's armor, which showed the depth of Ling Tianhan's skill.
And in Xia Yuan's eyes, in addition to the pain of pain, the only thing left is bitterness: "Being able to die at the hands of His Royal Highness the King of Han can be regarded as my Xia Yuan not living in vain!" ”
This Xia Yuan can see it, so that Zhu Xinghe has no way to hate him.
Ling Tianhan's eyes remained unchanged, and he lowered the long sword into Xia Yuan's chest a few more points: "Your martial arts are not as good as before." ”
Xia Yuan smiled bitterly and slowly knelt in front of Ling Tianhan, and a mouthful of blood gushed out: "Your Highness...... Wise! ”
Then the light in Xia Yuan's eyes went out little by little, and those defenders of the city also panicked for a moment when they saw that Xia Yuan was dead.
"Boom-" When the long sword in Ling Tianhan's hand was pulled out of Xia Yuan's chest, Xia Yuan's body also fell in response-
The person who was once saved by Ling Tianhan himself is now also dead under Ling Tianhan's sword, I don't know if it is time and fate, or the reincarnation of heaven.
Although Xia Yuan is dead, and the defenders of the city are like headless flies, the real test is not here.
After they successfully entered the city, they found that the huge capital was already in chaos.
The people were all closed, only some windows were flickering, and they were curious about the situation outside.
The streets were empty, and there were still traces of blood on several major streets, indicating that there had been a fierce battle here.
It's just that there are no other armies in the city except for the defenders and the small soldiers who later collected the corpses.
But after Zhu Xinghe and Ling Tianhan entered the city, they looked in the direction of the palace almost at the same time: I am afraid that at this moment, Prince Ping has gathered all his troops there, and it is an army comparable to the Zhenyuan army!
Prince Ping's sudden forced palace caught everyone off guard.
But the chaos in the capital proves that the emperor and Zhuo Anxun in the palace may still have the strength to fight against Prince Ping.
Ling Tianhan's eyes remained unchanged, and without even pausing for half a minute, he rode his horse in the direction of the palace.
When Zhu Xinghe heard this, Shuangxi said to Ling Tianhan: "Master, are we going to help find His Royal Highness?" This time, no matter what the outcome is, there is no turning back! ”
