Farmer sister: Escape from wilderness and farm with Lingquan space

Wherever the Yue Ma army went, it did not massacre innocent civilians, but only took away weapons and property from government offices and military camps.

Although they hate the Japanese, they cannot kill unarmed civilians; such heavy killing will surely incur divine retribution.

Of course, those civilians who took up arms and launched attacks were not innocent. From the moment they picked up weapons, they were Japanese bandits, they were enemies, and they deserved to be killed.

The next two major cities were also captured by the army.

Although both major cities received the news and made preparations for battle in advance.

However, even with the combined strength of several surrounding small towns, the Yue Ma army, equipped with foreign guns, large catapults, and improved crossbows, could not withstand them.

After sweeping through cities and handling the aftermath, it was a month later when the army arrived outside the Eastern Capital.

The Eastern Capital, the largest and most prosperous city in Japan, was surrounded by high walls and had heavy iron gates at its gates.

At this moment, the city gates were tightly closed, and figures were moving about on the city walls, tensely preparing to defend the city gates to the death.

However, under the overwhelming attack of fire, oil, and large stones, flames raged both on and inside the walls, and everywhere there were severed limbs and writhing, screaming figures of fire.

Taking advantage of the fact that the defenders on the city wall were preoccupied, a wave of battering rams rammed into the thick city gate, causing it to collapse with a deafening roar.

Just as the army was about to rush into the city, a group of officials escorted a short, stout old man dressed in fine clothes as he timidly walked out of the city gate.

It turns out that the Japanese emperor was not as fearless as his soldiers; he was an old man who valued his life and was reluctant to give up his power, status, and wealth.

So as soon as the city gates were breached, he immediately led a group of officials out of the city to surrender.

The old emperor handed over most of the national treasury, as well as all the weapons and fine iron, and signed a treaty promising never to invade the Kingdom of Agate and Dai Viet and to pay tribute to Dai Viet every year before Qiao Ran let it go.

"Ranran, we've already come this far, why don't we just storm the capital and empty the palace and the treasury?"

Qiao Dajiang asked, puzzled.

Qiao Ran shook her head:

"The cost would be too high. Our catapults are better than theirs, making it easy to breach the city gates from the outside. But once inside the city, we'll have to fight street battles. We're not as familiar with the terrain as the Japanese; they're in the shadows while we're in the open, so we'll be the ones who suffer."

Moreover, the Japanese are known for their ferocity and willingness to die for money, but we still have families waiting for us, and we can't let them down.

Since Japan was willing to hand over most of its national treasury and all its weapons and refined iron, and signed a treaty, it would be unable to invade other countries for at least several decades.

As for the remaining state treasury and any weapons that might be hidden there, I'll just quietly take them away.

After she finished speaking, she winked mischievously.

Thinking about his daughter's abilities, Qiao Dajiang finally understood her plan.

"Good, that's good too. The country of Agate has a shortage of able-bodied men, and every single one of them is very important. This time, almost all the able-bodied men have come out, and it would be a loss if even one person were to go back."

The naval camp and the secret guards are people who have been kind to us, and we must not lose a single one of them. We should try our best to protect them!

After returning, the Kingdom of Agate worked hard to multiply and strengthen its national power, so that the Japanese would never dare to invade again. In the future, they would be able to firmly guard that sea area, preventing Japanese pirates from passing through, and Da Yue would be safe.

"But Ranran, I'm worried about you going into danger alone. Let the Prince accompany you!"

Mo Beihan, who had been watching the conversation between the father and daughter, spoke up at the opportune moment:

"Uncle, rest assured, I will protect Ranran with my life."

Qiao Ran glared at him.

She has her own space; it's uncertain who will protect whom!

However, she did not doubt his intentions, as he had indeed risked his life to protect her several times.
