    The arrows in Goshawk's hand shot out like a barrage of cannons, and almost one Japanese soldier was killed with every arrow.  ¡ùThe goshawk was about to kill, but the hand that reached into the arrow pot found nothing.  Unknowingly, the thirty arrows he carried with him had been shot.  Goshawk reluctantly drew out his saber and once again joined the pursuit.  ¡° Killing is actually a manual job, and blood will fly out with just one cut.  It seems simple, but it is actually very energy-consuming.  After all, the Yun family guard is still holding a saber, not a laser sword.  There are people everywhere running for their lives, disheveled or even naked.  The Yun family guards, all covered in armor, were panting from exhaustion. In the end, they didn't kill many people.  Instead, the men of Dayuanjun, who were wearing bamboo armor, moved swiftly and killed many Guardsmen.  "Mom, if our cavalry was here, would we let these people run away?" Goshawk gritted his teeth in hatred, if the invincible cavalry of the Yun family were here.  There was absolutely no way that so many Guardsmen could be allowed to escape under the cover of darkness.  But at this time, Goshawk could only watch the figures disappear into the darkness.  The guards of the Yun family, wearing dozens of kilograms of armor, could only stare at the scene from behind and sigh.  When Yun Xiao set foot on Xiaguan, the fiery red sun had already risen.  The rising red sun dyed the sky and the earth into blood. Lord Dayuan's men, Goshawk and others were bathed in this blood.  They searched for the surviving Guards soldiers, and killed the seriously injured ones with a knife.  Anyone who was pretending to be dead was picked up and sent to a prison camp.  Both the Yun family and Dayuanjun need some workers.  Mr. Dayuan took Fusang to greet Yun Xiao at the beach with an extremely humble attitude.  "The last general led his dog Fusang to meet Mr. Yun Hou!" Mr. Dayuan saluted Yun Xiao, and Yun Xiao was a little surprised by the thoroughness of the etiquette.  Usually at this time, the person being kneeled will often help the person kneeling up.  Then he said, "Brothers are broken" and other boring nonsense.  Yun Xiao did not take the usual path, he stretched out a hand and put it on the head of Dayuan Jun.  "This head of yours. I originally planned to take it away. But you made the right choice, so I have to let it grow properly. I hope you don't give me a chance, otherwise it won't grow here.  ¡± Faced with the threat of Chi Guoguo, Mr. Dayuan became even more submissive.  Because he knew that Yun Xiao actually didn't lie to him.  Facing such a powerful opponent, being submissive is actually the only option.  Since I chose to be a dog.  Mr. Dayuan is very conscious of being a dog.  "Please don't worry, Mr. Hou. Since you have surrendered to Mr. Hou, you will be in the fire and in the water. You will be driven by Mr. Hou." Yun Xiao was very satisfied with Mr. Dayuan's answer, although the words in his mouth were unreliable.  But listen to his words and watch his actions. After listening to his words, the next step is to see what he does.  "What do you think of Mr. Dayuan next?" Yun Xiao glanced at the battlefield with green smoke curling up in the distance. Many soldiers were still cleaning the battlefield in the morning light.  "In my opinion, the Marquis should reorganize his troops and go straight to Kyoto. Minamoto no Yoshikyo will definitely send a quick horse to report what happened tonight to Kyoto. The Emperor knows that our soldiers in the Hyogo have mutinied. I am afraid that he will send people to the Hyogo to massacre the families of our soldiers.  ." Ohon-kun is right, if the emperor knows about the mutiny of Ohon-kun and his men.  The first thing he did was to send the Guards to kill all the women and children in Hyogo Prefecture.  "Oh, what is the situation in Kyoto? How many people are there in the garrison, and what is their combat strength?" Yun Xiao did not answer Da Yuanjun in a hurry, but first asked about Kyoto's war preparations.  "Returning to the Marquis, Kyoto is the largest city in Japan. When Xu Fu landed in Japan, it had already taken some shape. After more than a hundred years of expansion, it has been built to an extremely large scale. The population actually has more than 20,000 households.  , a total of about 120,000 people. One in four of Japan's population lives in Kyoto. The standing army in Kyoto is 10,000 Royal Guards. We use the best training equipment in the Japanese army.  , they all wear bronze armor. We only have a few bows and arrows, but they have powerful crossbows. This is only a peacetime armament. If it is a war, the emperor can temporarily recruit more than 30,000 young men.  Although these people are not as good at fighting as the Guards, they are large in number and can be used to defend the city. "The population of 120,000 to 30,000 is considered to be huge.  Yun Xiao couldn't help laughing.  If you see Luoyang and Chang'an with a population of more than one million.  I don¡¯t know what the Lord of the Courtyard will think. Tu Baozi is Tu Baozi and has never seen the world at all.  "How about the food reserves in Kyoto?" This is Yun Xiao's concern, if the food reserves in Kyoto are enough.  I worked hard on the expedition, and the supply line was so long by water and dry road.  Want to surround Kyoto.  It's also impossible.  "Returning to the Marquis, the rice has been very ripe in recent years. If I eat sparingly the grain stored in the Kyoto state warehouse, I'm afraid it can last for more than two years." "Hiss" Yun Xiao??Taking a breath of cool air, this emperor is quite capable of saving money.  Just storing food can last for two years, and this city is still surrounded by shit.  At that time, Prince Li's fleet will cause trouble.  There are tens of thousands of Japanese soldiers inside who are trapped and still fighting.  This battle is difficult to fight, and we must not let the situation develop to this extent.  Yun Xiao looked at the thousands of rays of light in front of him, thinking about how to deal with the enemy.  The current situation in Jiangnan was unstable, and he could not be trapped in a war with Japan for a long time.  It had only been half a month since the war started, and he had already lost his troops and generals.  The Yun family definitely can't afford such a loss, and it seems they have to think of a better way.  Suddenly, Yun Xiao seemed to have an epiphany. He turned around and asked the emperor: "Are you saying that the emperor will send troops to attack Hyogo Prefecture as soon as he knows about your mutiny?" "No, Emperor Jimmu is a man who will take revenge. If he  Knowing that our army is mutinous, we will definitely send troops to the arsenal. "So that's it, a smile appeared on Yun Xiao's lips.  A classic tactical term appeared in Yun Xiao's mind, surrounding the spot for reinforcements.  "Who do you think His Majesty the Emperor will send out to sweep Hyogo Prefecture?" Yun Xiao looked at Ouyuan-kun with bright eyes.  "It must be Emperor Jimmu's eldest son, Prince Naoji, because only Prince Naoji is the best at commanding troops in the court. Emperor Jimmu also has no trust in Prince Rei, and will definitely not hand over the power of commanding troops to Prince Rei." The emperor's eldest son, the throne  The future heir.  Perfect, this is so perfect.  Yun Xiao deeply hoped that things would develop as Mr. Dayuan predicted.  At this time, Minamoto Yoshikyo was struggling on the way back to Kyoto. Countless thoughts passed through his mind along the way.  He wanted to commit suicide and escape.  But after thinking about it, he still has a chance.  As long as you put all the responsibility for the failure on Daewuanjun's mutiny, you will most likely escape.  If the emperor is full of resentment towards Owon-kun, then he, Minamoto Yoshikyo, will not be overly blamed.  Thinking of this, Yuan Yijing cheered up.  While rushing on the road, I was drafting.  He was a close minister next to the emperor and knew the emperor's temper very well.  I've typed up the manuscript, and I'm not afraid that His Majesty the Emperor will not hate the Lord of the Great Hall to the bone.  What surprised Minamoto Yoshikyo was that he gathered a lot of defeated soldiers along the way.  It was not easy to chase them down in the darkness, and many of the Guardsmen were running for their lives.  Minamoto Yoshikyo stopped and walked all the way, and actually gathered more than two thousand scattered Guards soldiers.  Now Minamoto Yoshikyo was more confident. He did not send a fast horse back to Kyoto to deliver the message as Mr. Dayon had guessed.  Instead, they stopped and walked, trying to gather the scattered soldiers as much as possible along the way.  Arriving at the outskirts of Kyoto, Minamoto Yoshikyo actually had 2,500 to 600 men.  "Your Majesty!" Minamoto Gikyo ran into the hall in ragged clothes and unshaven beard.  When the emperor bowed his head, he bowed, and the sound of wailing could not be heard.  "Okay, I won't listen to your mourning. Tell me quickly, what's going on." When the emperor heard that Xiaguan was lost, he was already so anxious that he still had the heart to listen to Minamoto Yoshikyo crying here.  "Your Majesty! That Lord of the Imperial Palace betrayed His Majesty the Emperor and attacked our Guards camp at night. I led my troops to fight back, but there were many enemy troops. I have been fighting and retreating these days. I have retreated to the edge of Kyoto. Maybe.  The Han people and the Emperor were afraid of the majesty of the Emperor, so they abandoned their troops and fled. However, he betrayed His Majesty the Emperor and asked His Majesty the Emperor to make the decision for me and for those soldiers who died unjustly." Minamoto Yoshikyo knelt on the ground.  Kowtow is like pounding garlic.  The sound of "bang bang" was heard endlessly, when two groups of guards pulled him up.  There was obviously blood oozing from his forehead.  "What? Ohon-kun betrayed me! How is this possible!" The emperor did not believe Minamoto Yoshikyo's words, and he had already given enough benefits to Ohon-kun.  How could he betray himself at this moment?  "His Majesty the Emperor! Everything I said is true. If you don't believe me, you can ask the surviving soldiers I brought back. They all saw it with their own eyes. Ouyuan Jun's troops were the first to attack our army. If I hadn't fought to the death to cut off the rear, I'm afraid this would have happened.  By then the whole army had been wiped out. "Father, Minamoto Yoshikyo has been by my father's side for many years. I don't think he is a liar, and why was Minamoto Yoshikyo the only one to escape from the expedition together with Minamoto Yoshikyo?"  If the battle is defeated, the two of them should flee back to Kyoto together. "Prince Nao and Minamoto Yoshikyo usually have a close relationship, so at this time, they naturally have to fight each other.  How could the elder brother not protect the younger brother?  The emperor fell into deep thought, if Ouyuanjun changes sides.  Minamoto Yoshikyo really couldn't be blamed for the defeat in Shimonoseki, but he still didn't believe that Lord Ohon would betray him, because no matter how he thought about it, he had no reason to betray him.  "Summon the generals of the Guards to appear before you!" Emperor Kammu thought deeply and summoned the generals who had escaped.  The corners of Minamoto Yoshikyo's mouth turned up slightly. He had made a confession with these generals along the way.Just waiting for Emperor Jimmu to question, these generals naturally wanted to shirk the responsibility for the defeat.  He actively cooperated with Minamoto Yoshikyo, so it was half true and half false.  Dayuanjun's betrayal was said to have been premeditated by everyone.  Emperor Jimmu was furious because he lied alone.  It¡¯s impossible for everyone to lie, ¡°Here comes someone!¡± (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
