Somewhere in the battle circle, a young man in a green robe, armed with a long sword, engaged the honored soldiers in front of him.

Behind him, more than a dozen guards and more than half of the dead and wounded, there were five honored soldiers in front of him.

Their faces were hideous, and the scimitars in their hands slashed at the man in green clothes.

The strength was strong, and the next moment it forced the man in Tsing Yi to retreat, and the Rong Bing sneered.

Taking advantage of the situation, he shouted, "Die, garbage waste!"

The scimitar turned, slashing an arc, and the cold light flashed towards the neck of the man in Tsing Yi.

At this critical moment, the next moment, a black shadow rushed out from the side and knocked the man away.

The scimitar slashed through the black shadow's arm, blood splattered, and the black shadow snorted coldly, but instead of retreating.

Instead, he stepped forward, and the big knife in his hand had already taken advantage of the situation and plunged into the chest of the honored soldier.

This black shadow, with surprisingly great strength, clenched the hilt of the knife and slammed the dead honoraries in front of him towards several honoraries in front of him.

The big knife was pulled out violently, and several honored soldiers were knocked away by this force.

Seeing this, the man in Tsing Yi took off the bow and arrow on his back with his backhand, pulled the bow and arrows, and completed it in one go.

The arrow flew away, and one of the honored soldiers was unable to dodge and was shot in the chest, killing him instantly.

The next moment, in the darkness in the rear, more than a dozen big men rushed out, although these big men were wearing guard clothes, but their skills were quite extraordinary.

There is no fear of the soldiers in front of them, and they cooperate with each other, there are archers attacking from afar, there are melee sword and axe hands, and there are defensive shield players.

cooperated with each other, but in a dozen breaths, they directly slashed the remaining few honored soldiers on the spot, and only two or three of them were slightly injured.

The battle ended cleanly, and these people quickly came to the man in Tsing Yi and protected his safety.

The man in Tsing Yi stepped forward, looked at the big man who was blocking the knife for him just now, and asked with concern. "Lao Xie, how is it, is the injury serious, do you want to go down for treatment?"

Lao Xie shook his head, looked at the blood oozing from his right arm, just bandaged it simply, and said.

"Don't worry about Marquis Sun, this injury is nothing, hurry up and defend this section of the city wall."

The man in Tsing Yi was none other than Sun Wen, and the group of big men who protected him were not ordinary guards, but the twenty new soldiers who Su Qi'an left for him to protect his safety when he went to the Hanlin Academy.

The situation in Kyoto is urgent, and a Hou Ye like him, who has fought with the Honored Soldiers, is naturally drafted.

And he also led the guards of the mansion and a group of security forces, responsible for defending a section of the southern city wall.

These invading soldiers were all deadly, and there were only a dozen or so people left in the small squad of security forces he defended.

If it weren't for the protection of this group of new troops, Sun Wen would probably have been planted here.

Seeing Lao Xie's solemn expression, Sun Wen nodded, and he said, "Liu Meng, Tangtang, are they safe?"

Lao Xie nodded, "Don't worry, they are safe at Mr.'s residence, and they are also protected by more than twenty of our brothers by their side."

Sun Wen breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and when the Rong soldiers attacked, Sun Wen immediately sent Liu Meng and Xu Tangtang away, and asked the two to quickly go to Su Qi'an's residence.

In today's Kyoto, the only thing that can reassure Sun Wen that the two of them are safe is Su Qi'an's residence.

If something happens to the two of them, then Sun Wen will die without redemption.

After making sure that the two of them were safe, Sun Wen raised his head, looked at the darkness in front of him, and said softly, "Do your best, I believe that Mr. will fight like us."

"Old Xie, let's go!"

Sun Wen, who was cleaning up his mood, took a deep breath, his eyes were resolute, and then he led a group of new troops and the honored soldiers who climbed up to fight again.

The Kyoto Castle Wall, basically, is staged in every section, and fierce battles are fought between the two sides.

But not everyone can be as lucky as Sun Wen, with the support of the new army, and some parts of the city wall were breached by the Rong soldiers.

The Eimira army rushed towards Kyoto.

But not long after, several groups of security forces quickly engaged the Rong soldiers who rushed in, and the soldiers who heard the movement around them also quickly reinforced, this time it was the forbidden army that came to support.

Although the casualties of the security forces continued to increase, the two sides were at a stalemate due to their numerical superiority, and the Rongjun could not move forward in a short time.

The second and fourth princes sitting on the front line looked around in front of them, and the flames soared into the sky.

His face was silent, and as the casualties increased, the guards of the various provinces that had been assembled earlier had been sent to the battle lines of the city walls.

Now, even the 1,000 forbidden troops they brought were taken away.

There are not many troops around them, and the two princes who are divided into different battlefields have maintained a tacit understanding at this moment.

The order was given to the messengers, and soon the casualties on the battle line of the Kyoto City Wall were quickly reported back to the Imperial Castle.

In the Imperial City Council, everyone's faces were quite solemn, and there was no excitement at all just now.

Because according to the military report that came back, in a fierce battle for an hour, the number of dead and wounded of 10,000 security troops reached 5,000, but as for the wolf cavalry, it was ominous.

But their offensive momentum is still fierce, and they have no intention of withdrawing.

And what's even worse is that the request for help sent to Tongguan has not moved at all so far.

Everyone's hearts sank, and they understood that the Tongguan guards were afraid that they would be entangled.

Now on their heads, more than half of the 10,000 security troops were killed and wounded, and the 1,000 forbidden troops who went to support also suffered heavy casualties.

If the fight continues, Kyoto will be difficult to hold.

Once the city of Kyoto is broken, it will be difficult to leave when the time comes, and the wolf cavalry, which is less than 10,000 people, will beat the 10,000-person security army so embarrassed, it is really humiliating to lose face.

The situation is critical at the moment, and it is better to lose face than to live here.

At this time, Zheng Guogong took the initiative to speak, "Your Majesty, Ninth Princess, Rong Laochen said something to pour cold water, if the fight continues, Kyoto is very likely to break the city."

"Lao Chen understands that the ninth princess is worried that if she leaves, the hearts of the people in Kyoto will be lost, and the people of the world will laugh at Your Majesty, but compared to Your Majesty's life, these are nothing."

"And in this battle for the defense of Kyoto, His Majesty sent two princes to sit on the front line, and the soldiers have been working hard to support them, and their performance, I think the people of Kyoto are obvious to all."

"The world can understand Your Majesty's distress, Your Majesty, don't hesitate, withdraw, while the Honors have not yet entered, withdraw."

"The old minister seconded the proposal!"

Zheng Guogong's voice fell, and those main walkers behind him seconded the proposal.

What is surprising is that Wen Xuan and Chu Xiong, who have the most opposing views with Zheng Guogong and other main factions, are not in the palace.

Su Xuanyong was silent, and the ninth princess, who was the main guard, did not speak.

Her face was calm, but the hands hidden under the phoenix robe were rubbing, obviously her heart was quite unsettled.

After all, what Zheng Guogong said was indeed right, when the battle came to this, the troops in their hands were too small.

If the wolf cavalry continues to attack, with the distance from Kyoto to the imperial city, it will be possible to rush to the imperial city with less than half a burnt incense, and at that time, if you want to leave, you can only rely on the remaining thousands of forbidden troops, and it will be very difficult.

But if he really leaves, the city of Kyoto will be broken, and the people in the city will really be humiliated in various ways.

This is what the Ninth Princess does not want to see, the reason why she is so determined to defend it.

Not only did she consider the strength of both sides, but more importantly, she always had someone to trust in her heart.

She believes that this outstanding talent, whom she admires very much, will definitely not sit idly by and will definitely surprise them.

But the result was that she couldn't wait for his news, which made the ninth princess feel a lot of pressure in her heart.

Su Xuanyong, who was silent, sighed, the ninth princess knew that this time she could no longer stop her father from evacuating.

Just as Su Xuanyong ordered the evacuation of Kyoto, suddenly, a hurried voice sounded outside the hall.

"Wait Your Majesty!"

Everyone looked up, and it was none other than Wen Xuan.

It's just that this time he didn't come from outside the hall alone, and he was accompanied by Chu Xiong and a team of forbidden troops.

In the middle of the forbidden army, a chief eunuch was escorted in.

This eunuch, who everyone is familiar with, is the former eunuch Huang who was responsible for delivering the news.

Looking at this scene, Su Xuanyong was a little puzzled and asked, "Two Aiqing, who are you?"

Wen Xuan clenched his fists and said solemnly, "Back to Your Majesty, the old minister did not leave during the rest time, but discovered that there is a very hidden female cadre in our palace!"

"Female?" Su Xuanyong was stunned, he was a little confused by Wen Xuan.

"Master, you caught the wrong one, how can Eunuch Huang be a female cadre? He is one of the four great eunuchs of the widow, and he is a female officer, what kind of female cadre can he be?"

Su Xuanyong's incomprehension is also normal, after all, the four major eunuchs are Su Xuanyong's close confidants.

's henchman has become a female cadre, which is not a joke.

Wen Xuan didn't speak, but Chu Xiong on the side said, "Your Majesty, Eunuch Huang is a female cadre, even I don't believe in this, but before, the news in the council hall, according to the old minister's investigation, was always leaked intentionally or unintentionally."

"At that time, the old minister was silent, but he kept an eye on it and has been secretly investigating, among which the old minister dared to ask Master Wen to investigate together, and hoped that His Majesty would forgive him."

Su Xuanyong waved his hand casually, "It's okay, go on."

After all, the current Su Xuanyong doesn't care whether Chu Xiong and Wen Xuan are suspected of forming a party for personal gain.

On the contrary, how this close henchman became the so-called female trunk, this is the point

Chu Xiong nodded and continued, "After the investigation between the old minister and the master, Huang Dajian was locked."

"And just now, the old minister and the master," when passing by the pigeon room next to the council hall, they found that Eunuch Huang had maliciously intercepted the military newspaper sent back from outside.

As he spoke, Chu Xiong's eyes signaled, and the forbidden army led by him stepped forward and immediately handed several military reports to the attendants on the side.

It was transferred to Su Xuanyong by the inner servant.

With the opening of the military newspaper, Chu Xiong's voice sounded.

"These four military reports, sent back, one side is the Tongguan garrison, and the other side is Dongshanbo."

"The four military reports all have one thing in common, that is, they warned in advance that the wolf cavalry would come to invade Kyoto, so that Kyoto could strengthen its guard, and, there is good news, Higashiyama Bo led his 5,000 men and horses to take Hanya Pass."

"At the same time, immediately support the defenders of Tongguan, half an hour ago, the wolf army that attacked Tongguan has withdrawn."

Chu Xiong's voice was not loud, but in the entire meeting hall, there was silence in an instant.
