I am a commoner, but I will lead the empress to unify the world

Chapter 176 Yuhuatian Surrenders

A day passed, and in the afternoon of the next day, the Yan army was patrolling and guarding outside the city as usual.

Suddenly, the east gate of Qianxing City opened.

This scared the cavalry outside.

The Kun Army soldiers inside did not charge, but could only line up in a long queue and walk outside.

They walked out of the city gate, threw their weapons to both sides, and then walked outside with expressionless faces and numb eyes.

The cavalrymen looked at each other and hurried to report to Shen Changgong.

After learning the news of Kun's army's surrender, Shen Changgong immediately took Empress Gongsun Wan'er and others and rode outside on the dragon chariot.

When he arrived at the gate of the camp, Shen Changgong saw the Kun army soldiers outside walking towards him.

At the city gate, a carriage passed through the crowd and arrived outside the camp first.

The curtain of the carriage was lifted by the guards, and Yu Huatian walked out from inside.

Yu Huatian looked at Shen Changgong with bitter eyes, then got off the carriage, came to the front of the dragon chariot, knelt on the ground and shouted,

"Yu Huatian, commander of the Kun Kingdom's Northern Expedition Army, leads all the soldiers of the Kun Army to surrender to the Great Emperor of Dayan. Long live the Great Emperor!"

"Flat body."

Yan Fuyao spoke.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Yuhuatian stood up.

There was no grand surrender ceremony, no prisoner presentation ceremony, and no white-clothed, white-flagged, sheep-leading ceremony. The Yan army had not made any preparations for the surrender of the Kun army except for the prisoner-of-war camp that had been set up long ago, nor did they use it to humiliate the enemy or boost morale.

Even Yan Fuyao came out to take a look just out of curiosity.

All of this was arranged by Yuhuatian himself, wanting to make the other party happy and treat his own soldiers better.

Shen Changgong gave Yu Huatian enough face. He personally got off the dragon chariot and pulled Yu Huatian up.

This was the first time the two coaches had such close face-to-face contact.

Shen Changgong patted Yu Huatian's shoulder and said with a smile,

"Are you feeling better?"

"Much better, thank you for your concern, Your Highness."

Yu Huatian smiled bitterly, and his eyes returned to normal.

It is a kind of calmness that allows the other party to do whatever they want.

"Don't act like you're ready to die. Although we were rivals before, we also have a mutual understanding and similar personalities. I promised you that I'd drink wine and discuss heroes. Today, we can finally get drunk.

Come on, get in the car."

There were seats for attendants on both sides of the emperor's dragon chariot. Shen Changgong pulled Yu Huatian and got on the chariot.

When the Kun Army soldiers saw that Shen Changgong treated their commander with such courtesy, personally supporting him and helping him get on the emperor's dragon chariot, they felt a little more at ease.

As long as they are not tricked out and killed, it will be fine.

Only Zheng Xiong saw this scene and was heartbroken. He saw Shen Changgong holding Yu Huatian's hand, and he looked like a lecher no matter how you looked at him. He felt desolate and sad in his heart, and secretly thought that the commander's position was in danger.

For the soldiers of Kun Army, they are just ordinary soldiers, and no one does not want to survive.

If the commander-in-chief would rather die than surrender and leads them to fight to the death, they will also fight the enemy to the death in order to survive. They will have a spirit of never giving up and fight bravely.

But once the coach ordered surrender, this enthusiasm seemed to be completely drained away, and they were left with only the desire to survive and numbness.

In fact, everyone knows that they need to persist and can persist, but persistence is meaningless and they see no hope.

Their country is no longer able to control them.

Yan Fuyao and Shen Changgong brought Yu Huatian to the general's tent. There were no other people in the tent except Tu Que Ling and Gongsun Wan'er, and the three of them.

"Please take a seat, Marshal Yu."

Shen Changgong pointed to a couch next to a table and said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

He sat aside, while Shen Changgong sat directly next to the empress. The main seat should have belonged to him as the commander-in-chief, but the empress took it instead.

The Empress looked at Yu Huatian and smiled.

"I've long heard that Marshal Yu is the most handsome man in Dakun, and he's also knowledgeable and good at commanding troops. Seeing him today, I can see that his reputation is well-deserved."

"Your Majesty, thank you very much."

Yuhuatian answered politely.

Shen Changgong on the side narrowed his eyes, looked at the empress and said,

"Who is more handsome, me or General Yu?"

Yan Fuyao looked at him in surprise, and seeing his dangerous eyes, he knew that this guy must be jealous, and couldn't help but chuckled, Yin Yang Dao,

"You are handsome, who can be as handsome as you, Marshal Shen?"

"That's pretty much it."

Shen Changgong smiled brilliantly.

"Stop making such a noise, there are people here!"

"What are you afraid of? Master Yu is one of us now."

"Shut up!"

Looking at the empress and Shen Changgong joking and playing, Yuhuatian couldn't help but smile.

He felt that the two people in front of him were completely different from Da Kun's lifeless court.

The two of them are more like a pair of energetic young lovers, supporting each other, with deep feelings, and jointly leading the country, making the country younger.

The three young men sat together. Shen Changgong and the empress did not treat Yu Huatian as an outsider at all. They did not put on airs at all. Instead, they chatted and laughed happily, which eased Yu Huatian's tension and mood a lot.

Taking this opportunity, Yu Huatian raised the question in his mind,

"Your Majesty, I would like to ask a question..."

"Before you ask, change your self-proclaimed name. For example, you can call yourself the last general."

After hesitating for a moment, Yu Huatian thought that he could only try his best to improve his status in Dayan, so that Shen Changgong would treat these soldiers well, so he said,

"Your Majesty, I would like to ask, what do you intend to do with these 150,000 Kun Nation surrendered soldiers?"

"What do you want me to do?"

Shen Changgong asked back without thinking.

The problem was thrown to Yu Huatian. After thinking for a moment, he said,

"Throughout the dynasties, every country has either massacred all the surrendered soldiers, enslaved them, exchanged them for prisoners, or bought them off with gold and silver.

The prince is kind-hearted. He said in front of the armies of both sides that he would not kill them, and he would definitely not go back on his word.

The Kun State did not have any prisoners from the Yan army, so at most it could threaten the Yan State with some conditions or make deals with it in exchange for the return of those troops.

But the prince also said that Dayan will counterattack our country next... Kun Kingdom will definitely not send such a large number of elite troops back and bring trouble to itself.

In this case, they had no choice but to be used as slave laborers to work, such as farming, mining, and river repair.

I have no other requests but to hand over this broken body to the prince and let him do whatever he wants. I only ask that the prince treat them well, give them something to eat, and let them do whatever they want."

Shen Changgong looked at Yu Huatian, a playful smile appeared on his lips, and said,

"Then...how about leaving them all to you to continue leading the troops?"
