Yan Qianqian

Just as everyone was harboring their own thoughts with exceptionally rich inner monologues, a sudden loud "Bang!" rang out, like a bolt of thunder splitting this eerie silence.

Everyone was startled by this sudden sound, all fixing their gaze to find out what was happening.

It turned out that the sound was made by a Nan Liang soldier. His face was flushed red, looking somewhat embarrassed, and the big saber in his hand had already been thrown to the ground.

This action drew everyone's attention, and all eyes focused on him simultaneously.

Facing everyone's gaze, that Nan Liang soldier scratched his head somewhat sheepishly, then stammered out a sentence: "Military... military orders are like mountains..."

His voice had just fallen when several more "Bang! Bang!" sounds followed, as other Nan Liang soldiers also imitated him, throwing their big sabers to the ground.

At this moment, Xin Hong did not hesitate to raise his voice again, shouting at the top of his lungs: "The Crown Prince of Nan Liang leads the two hundred thousand strong army of Nan Liang in surrender!"

His voice exploded in the air like thunder, the lingering echoes continuing without end, as if to spread this shocking news across the entire world.

This shout not only made everyone present hear clearly, but also awakened the Nan Liang soldiers from their dream.

Only then did the other Nan Liang people come back to their senses, looking at each other with faces full of shock. Immediately, a series of "Bang! Bang!" sounds were heard, and the Nan Liang soldiers threw their weapons to the ground as if discarding hot potatoes.

Yan Wang, standing on the other side, though filled with disbelief in his heart, was after all a general, and soon calmed down. He said in a deep voice: "Someone, collect their weapons first!"

The soldiers on Dachang's side moved upon hearing the order, immediately sending out several agile and highly skilled soldiers who rushed toward the weapons scattered on the ground like a swift wind.

These soldiers picked up the weapons while carefully guarding against possible sneak attacks by the Nan Liang soldiers.

However, to everyone's surprise, all the Nan Liang soldiers stood quietly in place as if under a Ding Body Curse, not a single person making the slightest movement.

At this moment, Xin Hong also came down from the high place, walking steadily straight to Yan Wang and smilingly asking: "I wonder which general this is?"

Seeing this, Yan Wang replied without humility or arrogance: "I am Yan Wang, my father is An Wang."

His voice had just fallen when everyone around couldn't help but gasp. The reputation of An Wang was known to all in the other four states.

Back then, Dachang's ability to become a leader among several countries was largely due to An Wang's brilliant military achievements.

Xin Hong couldn't help but sigh: "Truly a hero among the young! I know Brother Yan must be very puzzled by this. How about we go eat together, so I can answer your questions?"

Yan Wang smiled and nodded, saying: "Alright. Although I don't know why Brother Xin made such a decision, indeed as you said, not fighting is naturally the best."

After speaking, Yan Wang dismounted and instructed Ai Jiao and Tang Qi behind him: "Ai Jiao, Tang Qi, take people to occupy Yiran City. All Nan Liang brothers who surrender are to be incorporated; those who resist are to be killed directly. Move quickly, we still have to go eat at Yiran City together at noon."

Ai Jiao and Tang Qi responded in unison: "Yes, Wang!" The two then each led a troop, rushing toward Yiran City like a swift wind, and quickly began their actions.

Yan Wang turned to Xin Hong and said: "Brother Xin, I will go back to change into casual clothes and rest for a while. Let's meet at Xincheng Restaurant in Yiran City later, how about it?"

Xin Hong readily replied: "Alright, let's go to Xincheng Restaurant in Yiran City." Yan Wang nodded in agreement.

Xin Hong walked firmly to the Nan Liang soldiers and said to all the soldiers: "Brothers, war is something no one wants to see, and Nan Liang has indeed reached a time of decline. In this situation, those who know the times are the outstanding ones. Everyone can rest assured, surrender and not be killed, everyone do not resist."

After hearing Xin Hong's words, the Nan Liang soldiers looked at each other, showing expressions of disbelief on their faces. However, they did not resist, but silently put down their weapons.

Ai Jiao and Tang Qi exchanged glances, both breathing a sigh of relief in their hearts. They had originally thought this incorporation would encounter some resistance, but unexpectedly it went so smoothly.

The two smiled at each other, then began to command the Nan Liang soldiers to gather in an orderly manner.

Yan Wang stood to the side, quietly watching this scene. His face was filled with a relieved smile, and he secretly sighed in his heart: "Truly without losing a single soldier!"

When Tang Qi and Ai Jiao had properly arranged the two hundred thousand strong army, Yan Wang cupped his hands toward Xin Hong in the distance, indicating he would return first. Xin Hong saw Yan Wang's gesture, immediately understood his meaning, and smiled while nodding.

Yan Wang turned and mounted his horse, returning to the camp together with Ai Jiao and Tang Qi. Along the way, they chatted and laughed, feeling exceptionally relaxed.

After returning to the camp, Yan Wang took off his battle robe and put on a set of casual clothes. He sat in the tent, thinking about today's events. Although they had won directly without experiencing a fierce battle, he knew this did not mean they could let their guard down.

"However, everyone is very happy today." Yan Wang muttered to himself. He thought of those Nan Liang soldiers; at the moment they put down their weapons, their expressions were somewhat helpless, but also revealed a feeling of relief.

Thinking of this, Yan Wang decided to take out some silver to give to the people at the Kitchen Camp, asking them to add a meal for everyone at noon. After all, this victory belonged not only to him and his army, but also to everyone who participated.

Yan Wang called a guard, handed him the silver, and instructed: "Go tell the people at the Kitchen Camp to add a meal for everyone at noon, and make more delicious food. Also, there are the two hundred thousand strong army of Nan Liang to feed. Although we don't know exactly how many will finally surrender, we still need to prepare more food."

The guard received the order and left, while Yan Wang leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes, and rested for a while.

After arranging everything properly, Yan Wang secretly pondered in his heart, feeling that he should first investigate the matter thoroughly, and then write a letter to report to the Emperor would be more appropriate. So, after resting for a while, he went to Xincheng Restaurant together with the other two.

Just as the three arrived at the entrance of the restaurant, a clever waiter quickly came up to them, smiling all over his face, saying: "Three guests, Your Highness the Crown Prince has been waiting here for a long time!"

Yan Wang nodded slightly to show he understood, then said: "Lead the way."
