On September 27, the fourth tragedy occurred, and the town that was massacred this time was only three hundred miles away from the imperial capital.

Without the analysis of the chief aide of the Empire, Hua Ruohan, everyone attending the Empire Conference saw the enemy's intention: starting from Tuoyu City fourteen days ago, the four towns that had massacres were connected into a straight line on the map and extended straight towards the imperial capital.

As the core of the Ruitang Dynasty, the capital was located on a 300-mile-wide plain surrounded by mountains and steep mountains and only five roads can be crossed. The empire built five passes in the mountain pass, and has never been captured by any enemy in history. At the beginning of the founding of the country, Emperor Wuwei used 2,000 soldiers to linger outside the pass and could not move forward. Now, each pass has 20,000 elite troops.

Tianxiong Pass, located in the southern throat road, is even more dangerous. When this pass is built, there is no city wall built. The five city gates are directly installed between the mountain walls, and then an arch bridge fortress is built on the gate, which becomes a natural gateway. All the barracks and warehouses are caves chiseled on the mountain walls. Faced with such natural dangers, even the most powerful leopard cavalry of the Beiwu Legion has no place to use their skills.

In order to ensure the completeness, the Imperial Marshal Corro personally led 60,000 soldiers to Tianxiong Pass.

On the night of September 28, Marshal Corot reported the whereabouts of the army to Queen Rong Xuetian again. Forty thousand infantry had already met with the main force and headed towards Tianxiong Pass early tomorrow morning. Then the contact between the military headquarters and Tianxiong Pass was normal.

But an hour later, when the military headquarters called again, Marshal Corot's army and the Tianxiong Pass defenders disappeared without any response.

The military headquarters was busy all night, using all kinds of methods, and even contacted the most distant Nanxiang Legion to prove that the equipment was not damaged. In the end, it was necessary to admit that it had lost contact with Marshal Corot, who was close to him.

In the early morning of September 29, boundless haze shrouded the heaven and earth. The sacred imperial capital lost its glory and its luster was dim.

In the hazy mist, countless black iron cavalry appeared and the pure black flags continued, like a black rope, lying around the neck of the empire.

No one knows how they conquered Tianxiong Pass and how they wiped out the 60,000 army led by Marshal Corot himself. However, the living reality is right in front of us - the imperial capital has been surrounded by the enemy.

In fact, Galinglan has not cared about the situation outside these days. Since she started practicing on September 12, she has spent almost twenty hours a day in the dream world for more than twenty hours a day in the dream world. In addition to the chip itself, she has spent more than forty days and nights in the world of Swordsmanship.

Galinglan's current attributes are: Strength 5 (5), Agility 8 (8), Intelligence 17 (17), Physical constitution 7 (7), Will 14 (14), Charm 11 (11).

In the world of Smiling and Proud Wanderer, the Fuwei Escort Agency has been destroyed, the Golden Basin Hands-washing Ceremony of the Hengshan Sect has ended, and Lin Pingzhi has also joined Yue Buqun's disciple. The Qingcheng Sect searched the Fuwei Escort Agency in vain. The people who coveted the Evil-Breaking Sword Book in the martial arts world have focused all their attention on Lin Pingzhi and the Huashan Sect.

Jialinglan did not participate in these previous martial arts events. She was very self-aware. With her current strength, she probably could not even beat the Four Shows of Qingcheng. Participating in these events will not only make any benefits, but may also be in danger of life. The top priority to do now is to practice the Nine Yin Scriptures.

When all attributes reach more than 30, you will have the strength equivalent to Mei Chaofeng back then. In this world, you can fight with the head of the Five Mountains Sword Sect.

On this day, she was practicing in the inn, but was suddenly forced to return to reality. This is the chip's protective measure. When the host's body is displaced in reality, or there is a drastic change in thermoelectric, light and magnetism nearby, the dream enhancement mode will be automatically paused.

When Galinglan woke up, the tremor of the earth was not over, and there was a buzzing sound in her ears. Before she could react, a huge roar sounded again, the walls of the house were shaking, the room was pitch black, and the dust on the roof fell down.

"Is this a shelling?!" Compared to the indigenous people of the Sky World, Galinglan was more familiar with this situation. In a panic, she escaped from the collapsed room wrapped in a quilt and lie down in the garden.

The shelling lasted for a whole day before it stopped. In the evening, the palace maids found Galinglan and sent her to the bedroom of Queen Rong Xuetian. In the bedroom, Galinglan saw his sister and brother.

The little face of Emperor Qiongyu was pale. The moment she saw her sister, she immediately rushed over, crawled into Galinglan's arms, and burst into tears. Galinglan's body stiffened, and then hugged Galingjie hard, gently stroked her spine to show comfort.

The six-year-old prince Jia Lingyang had a calm expression. He protected his two sisters and urged the palace maid to get him armor and swords. He declared solemnly: "Don't be afraid, I will protect you!"

When it was almost midnight, Queen Rong Xuetian rushed back to the bedroom. The Emperor Qiongyu Ji Jialingjie immediately got into her mother's arms and cried: "Mom..."

While comforting her little daughter, Queen Rong Xuetian looked at Galingjie who was sitting nervously and quietly beside the bed. Seeing the alienation in Galingjie's eyes, her heart ached.

Jia Lingyang walked over, put on his helmet and armor, held the hilt of the sword in his hand, and said proudly: "My mother! Why don't we fight against the enemy?"

Queen Rong Xuetian was stunned for a while before asking softly: "Do you want to go to the battlefield?"

"Sister told me that our Galing family is the king of the battlefield and has never defeated any war! Mother, I want to defend the empire like my father and Yingwu's ancestors!"

Queen Rong Xuetian stroked her son's soft hair, "Of course your empire needs you to protect, but you are still too young now. Would you wait a little longer?"

"But the enemy is outside..."

Queen Rong Xue's heart was shocked. The enemy did not rush into the imperial capital as expected. What were they waiting for?

An officer rushed into the bedroom regardless of etiquette, plopped down and handed over a roll of sheepskin while panting.

Queen Rong Xuetian only glanced at her and the parchment fell to the ground. Her face turned pale, and then she turned a blush of shame and anger.

The sound of cannons outside sounded again, as if urging something. Queen Rong Xuetian was stunned for a moment and rushed out in a hurry.

Jialinglan curiously picked up the little lamb skin with a line of black handwriting on it: "Present the Princess of Flower Moon before dawn." Her mood immediately fell to the bottom of the valley.
