The two talked for a whole night, and Long Jie accepted the order and became the general again.

However, compared to when they left, there were 130,000 fewer soldiers in the army, and Long Jie, who was in his forties, already had a head full of white hair.

In prison, he spent the darkest moments of his life.

The Daqian army rushed forward in a black mass, and Long Jie made a decision that no one expected.

Open the city gates and surrender.

Looking at the huge army below, he no longer had the slightest desire to resist.

Firstly, he couldn't hold on, and secondly, the Wolf King had completely disappointed him.

Looking at the wide-open city gate, the Daqian soldiers stopped and soldiers from the Tianlang Kingdom walked out one by one, about forty to fifty thousand people.

Long Jie took off his armor and walked towards him alone.

"I surrender."

When he saw Lin Xiaofan, he felt as if all the energy in his body had been deflated.

"What does the Heavenly Wolf King mean?"

Lin Xiaofan asked.

"My personal opinion is that the Heavenly Wolf Emperor is incompetent and has done whatever he wants. He wants to save the lives of his soldiers."

Long Jie sighed.

If there was still hope of defending the city, he would not surrender.

But as the war has progressed, the gap is too big.

"Let them all take off their armor."

Lin Xiaofan nodded slightly.

Even if the Tianlang Kingdom does not surrender, we can still capture the city if we give them some more time.

However, it must be said that Long Jie's action reduced many casualties.

The soldiers took off their armor, tied their hands behind their backs with ropes, and were collected together for processing.

Daqian's army entered the city.

The Sirius Emperor made a final resistance, and three thousand palace guards defended the palace to the death.

But under the fierce attack, the Tianlang Kingdom's palace fell after only an hour.

The Sirius Emperor was hanged in the palace with a three-foot-long white silk cloth, and all members of the Sirius royal family were thrown into the dungeon.

From this moment on, the situation in Tianlang Country changed completely.

Half a month later, Bao Tan returned with hundreds of personal guards and brought a letter of surrender.

"Bao Tan has surrendered. The battle is over."

Lin Xiaofan looked at Bao Tan's letter of surrender, let out a breath, and felt much more relaxed.

The capital was gone, the emperor was gone, the chances of winning were slim, and there was no reason for Bao Tan to fight to the death.

"Zhang Cheng, we conquered the Tianlang Kingdom together, and many of your brothers died. How do you want to divide it?"

Lin Xiaofan asked.

In this battle, Zhang Cheng led an army of 140,000, but only 60,000 were left at the end. He suffered heavy casualties, but his contribution was also great.

Zhang Qi chuckled and said:

"My brothers and I have discussed it. Now that we have avenged our grievances and the royal family of the country has been wiped out, my brothers and I are not good at governing the country, so we should just merge into your Daqian."

After this period of contact, he also felt that Lin Xiaofan was a good person. Daqian had been benevolent in recent years, and the people's lives were getting better and better. Instead of being independent, it would be better to merge directly into Daqian.

"Brother Lin, do you want us?"

"Yes, Brother Zhang's decision is an honor for Daqian."

Lin Xiaofan's expression was filled with gratitude.

"Not really. Not really."

Zhang Cheng waved his hands repeatedly.

"Since you have joined Daqian, we will follow the rules of Daqian. You will be rewarded one tael of silver for each enemy you kill, and another for meritorious service. Those who died in battle will receive a pension of ten taels of silver. In addition, your family will be exempted from taxes for three years, and you can receive five shi of grain from the government every year."

Lin Xiaofan said.

"So good treatment?"

Zhang Cheng's eyes widened. He decided to join Daqian purely because he didn't want to have a lot of trouble in the future. Unexpectedly, there was an unexpected surprise.

"Daqian will not treat any soldier unfairly."

Lin Xiaofan said.

……

The capital of Nanlong Kingdom.

After several months of fighting, Jiashan Kingdom was destroyed and only Nanlong Kingdom was left struggling to survive.

Compared with Daqian's army, they are far inferior.

Their soldiers slashed at the enemy with their swords, but they could not break the enemy's defense. However, the enemy's swords were deadly.

Plus the tower cars, catapults, and thunder blasters.

The combat power of the two sides is not at the same level at all.

"drop."

Emperor Nanlong led all the officials out of the city gate.

Facing the attack from Daqian, they could hold out for a while, but not forever.

If you surrender earlier, you can stop the loss in time.

Jianbai's army entered the city and changed their flag to Daqian.

At this point, Nanlong State and Jiashan State, a total of twelve counties, were all incorporated into Daqian.

The capital of Ningchuan State.

On the city wall, Jian Feng was already killing madly.

His armor was already red, and the sword wound in his hand was dripping with blood. There were still countless enemies around him, but no one dared to approach him.

Even when he rushed forward again, everyone retreated backwards.

More and more soldiers climbed up the city walls of Ningchuan’s capital.

The defending general was fighting with Lu Gou.

"Lu Gou, you are a running dog. You betrayed Ningchuan and surrendered to the enemy."

Lu Gou sneered, without any explanation, he stabbed the guard's neck with his sword.

The capital of Ningchuan State fell completely, the Emperor of Ningchuan committed suicide, and all 27 counties of Ningchuan State were incorporated into the territory of Daqian.

After the country was destroyed, the ministers of Ningchuan Kingdom told the whole story why they attacked Daqian.

It was because of an old man named Ling and a young man named Qing Ziqing.

Qing Ziqing...

Lin Xiaofan thought for a long time before he remembered that when the Qing family of Canghai County was destroyed, someone escaped.

I didn't pay attention to it at the time, but I didn't expect that there would be a storm behind me.

Who is Ling?

The one who could persuade Emperor Ningchuan must be no ordinary person. He sent people to investigate in Tianlang Country for a long time, and finally found out that it was Emperor Tianlang who did all this.

The knife in his hand came from the Blood Shadow Sect, the world's largest killer sect.

This organization stayed in the Tang Dynasty for hundreds of years, and finally found out that it was actually the sword of the Tianlang Kingdom.

The sudden death of the former Tang Emperor might be closely related to this sect.

He wrote a letter to Li Zhao. After reading it, Li Zhao immediately sent troops to encircle and suppress the Blood Shadow Sect.

As the world's largest assassin sect, the Blood Shadow Sect is no pushover. Hiding everywhere, killing officials, and causing a big disturbance in the Tang Dynasty.

However, the world of the Tang Dynasty ultimately belonged to the Li family. With Li Zhao's determination, the No. 1 assassin sect was destroyed in three months.

……

A year later, all the territory of Tianlang Kingdom was incorporated into Daqian, and Dashang Kingdom also brought people to surrender.

Today, Da Shang only has 600,000 to 700,000 people, and it is difficult to support even 30,000 soldiers. Moreover, all four sides of Da Shang have been occupied by Da Qian.

Surrender is the last dignity of the Great Shang Emperor.

As for the fall of the Shang Dynasty, Yu Cai, the Grand Commandant of the Shang Dynasty, played an indispensable role and could even be said to be the first meritorious official.

The Yu family became more and more powerful, swallowing up several other major families in the city, and its power was unprecedented.

But soon Kang Hong raided their house.

He couldn't leave a time bomb in Daqian's territory. And what the Yu family did was beyond the rules.

That day, the government seized tens of millions of taels of stolen money from the Yu family, shocking the whole country.

When the Shang Dynasty was about to fall, the taxes collected each year were only 700,000 or 800,000 taels.

The Tang Dynasty successfully destroyed the Tianwu Kingdom, which had been jumping around all the time. The territories of the two countries were unprecedentedly large, and the Great Qi was simply not enough to match them.

Under the leadership of Sun Wufeng, the interests of Datang and Daqian increased and expanded, and their friendship also deepened during this period.

The two countries would occasionally bully Da Qi, taking a city today and another city tomorrow. Da Qi's territory was gradually reduced, but they did not dare to resist at all.

If you offend these two masters, you will have to cede five or ten cities to others.
