Finished!

It's all over.

Han Yian sneered: "The Seventh Prince has colluded with the enemy and committed treason. The emperor has ordered that Prince Xiao's status as a prince be revoked and he be demoted to a commoner. If Prince Xiao is caught, he will be killed or alive.

"Bater, Prince Xiao is now in your hands. If you don't want to keep him, just kill him with a single blow. I will return and explain the truth to His Majesty."

Seeing that the only bargaining chip in his hand was useless, Bater lifted Xiao Chu up and kicked him away.

"Han Yan, what exactly do you, the Dongxia Kingdom, want? Tell me what conditions you have, and I am listening."

Almost a month has passed, and Xiluo is on the verge of destruction. It is time for the King of Xiluo to give an account.

"Bater, you killed our merchants, broke the contract first, and then issued a declaration of war. Now you are trapped in your own web.

If you raise the white flag in surrender and voluntarily offer all of Xiluo's territory, the emperor will spare your life. Otherwise, it will depend on who of us survives."

It is impossible for Bater to surrender, and it is even more impossible for him to hand over the territory of Xiluo to Dongxia.

"You Dongxia, you are dreaming!"

General Han raised his eyes and thought that King Xiluo was not in desperate situation yet. If he waited for a while, he would not give in.

Xiao Chu was no longer useful, and his treatment in the border town was worse than before. Even the meals he ate every day were what was left over from the Xiluo army.

While Bater was waiting, another month passed. Xiro was about to perish, and high-ranking officials fled or were killed.

Every time someone was killed, Han Yan would tell Bater, which would make Bater feel depressed.

The most important issue at the moment is their food. In this empty border town, there is no food except water.

In addition, a lot of food and supplies were buried in underground passages, and there was very little left that could be obtained.

The soldiers in the army were injured and had no medicine to treat them, and many died of infection.

There were also people who died of starvation. They were all so thin that they were unsightly. Even Bater himself had a beard and was as dirty as a beggar.

He was also very hungry, and even climbing up the city wall was a difficult task.

Today, Han Yan told him that Xiao Jingchuan had occupied Xiluo, and only Karl was left.

He stood on the city wall of the border town, looking at the Dongxia army below the wall. He had been thinking about a lot of things recently.

When he set out, Wu Fu said that this journey would be very dangerous because he overestimated himself and underestimated the Dongxia Kingdom.

The Dongxia Kingdom today is no longer the Dongxia Kingdom of the past.

Today, people from Dongxia Kingdom sent food and fodder to Han Yan and his men. Bater stared at the person who came to deliver the food and fodder.

It was a woman, and the breeze blew up the veil on her head. Bater looked at her, and Lin Ting also turned his head to look at the embarrassed man on the city wall.

Soon, Xiluo and Dongxia will be unified. She came here to do business and sent a batch of food and vegetables to General Han.

Feeling that someone was watching him, Lin Ting looked up at the city wall.

The man above is Bartel. Apart from his aura, he lacks the sharpness of his previous position.

"General Han, it's the summer solstice. Many fruits and vegetables in Dongxia are ripe. I sent some to the army."

General Han asked someone to unload the things Lin Ting brought, his face full of joy.

"Mrs. Lin brought so much. We can eat more on the way back to Beijing than we can finish."

Back to Beijing?

Lin Ting looked at the people on the city wall. Bater was still unwilling to surrender. He wouldn't go back so soon, right?

"General Han, is there any news about the people inside?"

Han Yan was very confident: "It will be soon. There will be news in the next few days at most. According to my calculations, there is no food left in there.

If Bartel had been a little more normal, he wouldn't have let everyone inside die."

In the past, it was the people of Dongxia who were trapped in the border town, but now the positions are reversed and the people of Xiluo can no longer survive.

Lin Ting didn't know what to say about this feeling.

"In that case, I will go back to the capital to wait for General Han, and by the way, I will help you check on Yi'an."

Han Yan was extremely grateful to Lin Ting. Han Yian was probably going to give birth in the next few days, and he would have a grandson soon.

"Okay... Madam Lin, please leave quickly. When the time comes, I will bring the Xiluo people back with me and let His Majesty deal with it."

Lin Ting said goodbye to General Han. After she left with Bai Lu and her men, Bater kept his eyes on her.

Until his figure disappeared, Lin Ting felt very uncomfortable.

General Han thought he would have to fight with Bater for a few more days, but he didn't expect that he would raise the white flag and surrender that night.

As long as Bater surrenders, Xiao Jingchuan's army will suffer no more casualties and will unconditionally recover the territory of Xiluo.

At night, the gates of the border town were wide open, and when General Han's men entered, they smelled the stench of corpses in the city.

They seized the weapons of the Xiluo soldiers and tied their hands and feet.

In order not to torture the prisoners, General Han gave them some food and locked Bater in a prison car.

Another prison van held Aying and Xiao Chu. Xiao Chu was lucky enough to survive even though he was beaten so badly that not a single piece of skin was left on his body.

However, this trip to the capital marked the end of his and Lady Zhang's lives.

Concubine Zhang poisoned the emperor, and Prince Xiao collaborated with the enemy and committed treason. Before they even arrived in the capital, the emperor's decree to execute him arrived.

Twenty days later, the first thing he did when he arrived in the capital was to execute Xiao Chu and Concubine Zhang immediately.

The behavior of the two men also made the people of the capital sneer at them, and the beheading site at the end of the street was surrounded by people.

He cursed the two of them and the other people in the Zhang family, and hated them to the core.

The executioner raised his sword and ended the ambitious lives of Zhang Yuanhua and Xiao Chu.

Xiao Jingchuan also returned to the capital at the same time. The emperor was seriously ill, but Xiluo and Dongxia were completely unified.

Inside the palace, in the main hall, in front of all the civil and military officials, the emperor kept coughing. He covered his mouth with a handkerchief and spat out a mouthful of blood.

The emperor of Dongxia Kingdom is dying, which may be a good thing for Bater.

"Your Majesty, please take care of yourself. Why don't you call a doctor over?"

Qu Yuanxun saw that something was wrong with the emperor and stepped forward to make a suggestion.

The emperor blinked, and the chief eunuch understood and immediately asked the junior eunuch to call Wan Shen over.

Now that Wan Shen’s eldest son has avenged his great hatred, the worry on his brow has disappeared and he has devoted himself to the research of medical skills.

In the hall, he gave the emperor a few silver needles, and the emperor's cough improved a lot and his breathing became smoother.

Seeing that Dongxia Kingdom is now powerful, he can feel that his wish has come true.

"The Crown Prince and General Han have recaptured Xiluo, which brings me great joy. Now, King Bater of Xiluo is willing to hand over the seal of Xiluo and remain in Dongxia as a hostage."

The emperor looked at Bater who was standing aside, and the eyes of all the civil and military officials of Dongxia Kingdom were also cast on him.

Bater lowered his head, although he was reluctant, there was nothing he could do.

Lift the tray in your hand and walk to the foot of the high position.

"I, Bater, a Xiluo native, am willing to surrender Xiluo to the Dongxia Kingdom unconditionally. I only ask the king to treat the people of Xiluo kindly and not harm their lives. They are innocent."
