How many Huns came?
"Steward Wu said hurriedly."
"Only a hundred or so people."
Xiao Mei smiled and immediately gave the order.
"Go quickly and inform the Imperial Guards in the city to come immediately."
After saying that, Xiao Mei immediately led the hundreds of people behind her to rush towards the south gate city wall.
As these Xiongnu charged fearlessly, the defenders on the city walls had no time to react and were immediately slaughtered.
When the Imperial Guard captain in charge of the garrison rushed out upon hearing the sounds of fighting, he was stunned by what he saw.
Without any hesitation, the Imperial Guard captain immediately roared.
"Quickly! Kill these Xiongnu!"
"Immediately report to Her Highness the Ninth Princess! The South Gate has been attacked!"
Having said that, the captain drew his sword and charged forward like a tiger descending a mountain!
With the addition of the Imperial Guards who remained on duty, the shouts of battle from the south gate rang out once again.
Upon seeing this from afar, Yelü Junba was overjoyed and immediately gave the order without hesitation.
"Ashina, lead five hundred Ironclad Cavalry and charge forward immediately! Open the city gates for me!"
"Yes, sir!"
In the darkness, five hundred heavily armored Ironclad Cavalrymen rapidly approached the siege ladders erected at the south gate.
At that moment, Xiao Mei led hundreds of guards and servants to join the battle.
Xiao Mei, holding a beautifully decorated longsword, laughed loudly.
"Kill all these Xiongnu!"
With Xiao Mei's hundreds of people joining the battlefield, the original unfavorable situation was instantly reversed.
Xiao Mei was thrilled. Just as he had predicted, these Xiongnu were merely testing the waters.
As long as he leads his men to drive back these hundred-odd Xiongnu, he can take this opportunity to suppress Xiao Xiuning.
In no time at all, all of the hundreds of Xiongnu people were killed.
The Imperial Guard captain, covered in blood, walked up to Xiao Mei and asked her a question.
"I wonder why His Highness the Third Prince has come here?"
When the Xiongnu attacked the city, the third prince arrived just in time, and he was even wearing armor. No one would believe there was nothing wrong with that.
Before the captain could react, a flash of sword light appeared.
Xiao Yu pierced the throat of the captain in front of him with a single sword strike.
The captain stared at Xiao Mei in disbelief, blood gushing from his mouth, yet he could not utter a word.
Xiao Zi gave the order in a cold voice.
"Not a single person was left on the city wall."
At his command, hundreds of guards and servants from the Third Prince's residence immediately rushed forward.
If there's no way to prove anything tonight, then I can make a perfect story out of it.
The deaths of the imperial guards and civilians can all be attributed to the Xiongnu.
He himself was the hero who saved the capital.
Just as Xiao Mei was immersed in joy, a series of muffled footsteps suddenly echoed from the darkness in the distance.
Xiao Mei turned her head, and immediately! A tall figure enveloped Xiao Mei, who was laughing loudly.
Beneath the heavy armor, a pair of cold, chilling eyes stared intently at Xiao Mei.
