"The rat is in the cage?" Yun Xiao was lying on a recliner, and his body was a little unbearable after a night of hard work. Over the years, the body has become more and more poor, and the bones of the human body that is not yet thirty years old seem to be sixty years old. Could it be that the ages of the two lifetimes have been added together?

"Master Hou is clever, Dayuanjun really went to the slope that is full of stones. At this time, our army only needs to hold a few key roads, and those guards will not be able to fly. Besides, they are far away from the water source, and it is estimated that it will not last more than three days if it does not rain. ”

Dayuanjun was very excited, and Yun Xiao's tactics were very much his appetite. Harness the power of nature and solve a qiē with a bow and crossbow. He has always advocated not to contact the war, but in Dongying. The bow and crossbow were strictly controlled by the emperor, and it was a capital offense for a local daimyo to possess a bow and crossbow.

"Ben Hou rested for a while, leaving the goshawk to guard here. You go and arrange the pockets, you are a good hand at arranging the pockets. There is only one request, not a single soldier or horse from Kyoto will be left behind by Benhou. Can it be done? ”

"Master Hou, please rest assured, with a bow and crossbow, it is easy to do. If one of the guards escapes back to Kyoto, you can take the head of the last general. ”

"Don't talk so much, you really have to do it. Go ahead, time is running out. Presumably, tomorrow the Guards will set out from Kyoto to rescue the Prince. ”

Yun Xiao could trust the methods of the courtyard king, and he was as fierce as the Yun family's guards, and they all suffered heavy losses under his calculations. Not to mention the fact that the guards in bronze armor had already equipped him with a sufficient number of bows and crossbows. In addition, with the Yun family's guards, even if they don't completely annihilate the reinforcements this time, they will greatly damage the vitality of the Japanese soldiers.

If the body can hold on, Yun Xiao really wants to command it himself. This damn body was sore after two nights.

After the courtyard gentleman walked away, Yun Xiao fell asleep and had the strictest communication with Zhou Gong.

Yuan Yijing Pegasus rushed back to the capital, and the journey of one and a half days took this guy to complete the whole journey in less than half a day.

The crossbow bolt on the shoulder was not removed. He was to carry this bolt to show that he had fought bloodily. Otherwise, the enraged emperor would really have cut off his head.

"His Majesty the Emperor!" Gen Yoshikyo cried again and threw himself into the main hall.

Hearing the report of the inner servant, Emperor Jimmu was already without a master. When he saw Gen Yoshikyo, who was covered in blood and had a crossbow arrow stuck in his shoulder, he almost fainted.

"Tell me, what's wrong with Prince Wu'erzhi?" Emperor Jimmu asked tremblingly. Prince Nao was his eldest son and was favored by Emperor Jimmu since he was a child.

When he grew up, he was born in the wind, and his martial arts surpassed his younger brothers. Although he has not yet been crowned crown prince. But Emperor Jimmu has already tacitly acquiesced that he is his future heir.

"Your Majesty, Prince Nao is surrounded in the wasteland of Nasuno. The minister was ordered to lead more than 100 people who dared to die to break through and come back for help, but only me and the two stood out. His Majesty, the fate of Prince Zhi is in the middle of nowhere. Ask Your Majesty to send troops quickly and reinforce the Prince. Otherwise, I'm afraid that Prince Zhi won't last long. ”

To this day, Gen Yoshikyo has not forgotten to show his merits to Emperor Jimmu. Prove how you broke out of the siege and rushed back for help.

But Emperor Jimmu is now thinking about his own son, where can he still have the heart to listen to what Gen Yoshikyo has to say.

The son is still alive. Emperor Jimmu's somewhat scattered mind immediately calmed down. He lowered his head and thought for a moment, he had to send someone to the rescue. But who to send to lead the troops is a question, and the most capable of fighting among the princes is now besieged by enemy troops.

The rest of the sons were a group of wine bags and rice bags, and they were asked to lead the troops to relieve the siege. I'm afraid that the encirclement will not be resolved, but I will have to take another one.

The other daimyo couldn't be trusted, and now they can barely be trusted. There is enough ability to command, I am afraid that the only one is Prince Li. But at the beginning, he ignored his opposition and used the construction of the dam to motivate the courtyard to guard the pass. Prince Li was already very angry. Would he still be willing to help at this time?

"Your Majesty, Prince Li asks to see." The chamberlain came quietly. A whispered passage.

It's really evil, whoever you want. Is there something wrong with this? Emperor Jimmu was immediately alert, and the backlash of the Courtyard King hit him very hard. Now he doesn't trust any daimyo anymore, including his own brother. At the beginning, he was a strong contender for the position of emperor, and Emperor Jimmu also took a lot of effort to sit in this position.

"Xuan!" Emperor Jimmu made up his mind that if it was Prince Rei who asked to lead his troops into battle. Then he will be placed under house arrest immediately. God knows if he is in collusion with Dayuan-kun. If he goes out with his soldiers, he conspires with the courtyard to kill the elite guards in his hands. I'm afraid the position of the emperor is ......

Prince Rei strode in, he had been anchoring in Yokosuka to rest the navy. This time, I came back to ask Emperor Jimmu for some food, and I happened to meet Gen Yoshikyo to bring back news. Prince Nao was besieged in Nasuno and his life was on the line.

After all, it's the same lineage. Prince Li decided to put aside the contradiction and lead the troops to rescue his nephew first.

"His Majesty the Emperor, my younger brother heard that Prince Naoshi was besieged in Nasuno. The courtiers are willing to take the royal guards and go to Nasuno to rescue Prince Nao. Please allow His Majesty the Emperor! ”

Prince Li never imagined that the suspicious Emperor Jimmu already had a draft. As soon as he says that he is willing to lead troops or something, take him down.

All right! I really can't wait, I am in a hurry to take my guards before the news spreads.

Emperor Jimmu stared at Prince Li with a pair of dark eyes, what exactly was going to do with this younger brother. Whether to be imprisoned according to the original plan, or to simply kill once and for all.

Prince Rei saw Emperor Jimmu looking directly at him, thinking that he was worried about himself. Then he said: "Your Majesty, what Dayuanjun is best at is ambushing. Prince Zhi is besieged by the lord of the courtyard, and if you hesitate for a while, it will be more dangerous. He also asked His Majesty to make a decision as soon as possible, and his brother and the prince's uncle and nephew naturally tried their best to rescue him. ”

is in such a hurry, it must be collusion with the courtyard king. There is no evidence yet, and it is impossible to see what happened to him. However, this navy can't let him go back and take it, otherwise he may be the next one to mutiny.

"Prince Li, you're tired all the way. You don't have to worry about rescuing Prince Nao. You need to take a break, come and take Prince Li to the harem to rest. The service should be thoughtful, and the garrison commander is personally in charge of the guard. ”

Emperor Jimmu didn't communicate with his subordinates beforehand, and he couldn't speak too bluntly. I can only explain the matter briefly when I am half-covered and half-exposed, and I will explain it in detail to the commander of the guards after it passes.

"Your Majesty, ...... are you" Prince Li became a little uneasy, he didn't understand why he would be treated like this when he asked to lead his troops on an expedition.

"I said you're tired and need to rest. Come on, Prince Fuli go down. Emperor Jimmu shouted with a cold face.

At this time, the commander of the Guards also recalled, and hurriedly ordered his subordinates to set up the prince and go out.

Emperor Jimmu was pacing in the main hall, and now there was really no candidate to lead troops. Let himself go on the expedition, he doesn't have the courage to do so. The Japanese soldiers have failed repeatedly, and even he, the emperor, may not be able to return to defeat late.

looked at Yuan Yijing, who was already stupid below, and had to use him as a last resort. Send him more troops, and as long as he can rescue Prince Zhi, let Prince Zhi lead these soldiers to continue to fight against the Han army.

Emperor Jimmu made up his mind, and his tone softened. Said to Gen Yoshikyo, "How is your injury?" I don't need to pass the imperial doctor to show you. ”

"Back to Your Majesty, this injury is nothing. It's just that the situation is in crisis there for Prince Zhi, and he asked His Majesty to send reinforcements as soon as possible. I'm afraid it's ...... late."

Yuan Yijing is oily and slippery, and naturally knows when to say something. At this time, Emperor Jimmu should try to focus his attention on his son's siege. If a person accidentally says the wrong thing, blame himself. Then this Liuyang leader will definitely not be able to keep it.

"Yuan Yijing, you've been following me for fifteen years. After so many years, it's not easy. You are familiar with the situation in Nasuno, and I still mean to lead troops to relieve the siege. After joining up with the Straight Prince, he handed over the generals to the Straight Prince. Would you like to go back to Kyoto to recuperate? ”

Gen Yoshikyo's soul was about to fly, and he really didn't want to face those elusive black-armored warriors. But he knew, don't look at Emperor Jimmu saying this with a smile on his face. If he really dares to shirk it now, then his little life will immediately fly away.

"Loyalty to the Lord is the self-reproach that the courtiers should fulfill, and His Majesty is kind to the ministers. In case the minister is broken, the minister is willing to lead the reinforcements to rush to Nasuno to rescue His Royal Highness Prince Nao. ”

Yuan Yijing was unwilling, but he still had to say beautiful things.

"Okay, I'll rest assured with your words. Send the imperial doctor to bandage you, and immediately lead the troops to set off. I have allocated you 10,000 soldiers, plus 2,000 guards. You must rescue Prince Nao, and wait for your triumphant day. I have crowned you with a great name! ”

Emperor Jimmu has made a bloody contribution for his son, and it is not counted as a wish to be a feudal official. More than 10,000 soldiers were sent out, which was almost half of the troops he could mobilize now.

Fortunately, Kyoto began to mobilize some time ago, and these soldiers were ready to set off after regrouping. Nasuno is only a day-and-a-half-day journey from Kyoto, and if you travel overnight, you should be able to reach it tomorrow afternoon.

"The minister will definitely live up to the expectations of His Majesty the Emperor!" Yuan Yijing retreated after giving the salute, and this head was temporarily saved. But the thought of having to face those black-armored warriors again gave Minamoto Yoshikyo a headache.

This time he deliberately found a bronze shield from the arsenal, albeit extremely heavy. But he knew that maybe this was the only thing that could withstand the deadly ballista.

Gen Yoshikyo only wanted to rush to Nasuno and hand over this huge team to Prince Nao, and then quickly retreat himself. Who knows if Prince Nao can beat those black-armored samurai with elusive bows and crossbows.

"You are always by the side of the general, and there must be no mistake." Gen Yoshikyo commanded several soldiers with bronze shields in a loud voice. (To be continued......)
