Li Hong was not threatened by Tang Yin and instead laughed wildly: "Why would my People of Zhen Country be afraid of you and your group of lackeys?"

Tang Yin walked in front of him, and said in a low voice: "Royal Brother, you can ignore the life and death of the common people within the Xitang City, could it be that you can even ignore your own children, wives, and daughters?"

These words caused Li Hong's expression to change. Tang Yin then continued to speak in his ear: "You yourself should be able to see that although Li Dan has been disrespectful to you, but deep down, he still respects you, the King Father. He is even willing to apologize to the Son of Heaven and accept the punishment of the Son of Heaven. With such a loyal and filial son, do you really have the heart to let him be your funeral? "

Don't look at how Li Hong hated him to the point that the roots of his teeth itched, it was a hatred that could not be suppressed and was not strong enough. Now that Tang Yin said that he was going to kill Li Dan, the old man's eyes reddened and he roared: "You dare?!"

Saying that, he grabbed Tang Yin's collar.

Tang Yin ignored his anger, allowing him to grab onto his own collar, he said with a smile: "There is nothing that I don't dare to do, furthermore, other than me, there are also the Five Kings of Chuan, Mo, An, Huan, and Jade. However, if this king protects him, it is sufficient to ensure that Young Master Li Dan is safe and sound. If this king does not care, Young Master can die at any time, and at that time, Royal Brother will have no descendants, no successors, and the Li Clan will be exterminated! Royal Brother wouldn't not think for the future generations, right? "

Looking at Tang Yin's smiling face that was as vicious as a snake or scorpion's, Li Hong wanted nothing more than to eat its flesh and its bones, but he could not do so, and did not dare to do so.

The hand holding Tang Yin's collar slowly loosened, and after that, the old man sat on the ground as if he had all his energy sucked out, unable to come back to his senses for a long time.

That's right, now he could grit his teeth and not order the entire army to surrender, but doing so would be meaningless. If he only fell into Li Dan's hands, his attitude would be too tough, and Li Dan would not dare to do anything to him, while the ministers would not be held hostage by Li Dan. But now that Tang Yin had come, as long as Tang Yin dragged him out of the Young Master Mansion and placed a blade on his neck, who would dare to disobey? At that time, the Xi Tang would be in chaos, the city's defenses would be broken on their own, and the situation would become even worse.

It could be said that Li Hong didn't have any other choice, and could only follow Tang Yin's instructions. He was dumbstruck for a long time, slowly raised his head, looked at Tang Yin, and asked: "If I were to pass down the order for the entire army to surrender, would you let my son go?"

Tang Yin shrugged and said, "Of course! I'll make sure they're safe. "

Li Hong looked at him again, and then took a deep breath, and his gaze returned to the brush, ink, and paper. He tremblingly picked up the papers and pens that were scattered all over the floor and spread them out on the table. He then picked up the pen, but did not put it down.

He was very clear that once he surrendered, it would be an irreparable calamity for his Zhen Country. However, if he did not surrender, the result would be even more miserable. Li Hong, who was over fifty years old, seemed to have aged by ten years all of a sudden.

Seeing that Li Hong had not started writing yet, Tang Yin felt impatient and asked coldly: "What is Royal Brother waiting for? This is Royal Brother's last chance, if the allied forces were to break down the city later, Royal Brother wouldn't even have the qualifications to bargain with me. "

Li Hong muttered to himself: "Did you send out troops to suppress my Zhen Country just to avenge your original Zhen Country?"

Of course not! As long as the Zhen Country was there, there would always be a powerful and terrifying enemy south of it. Zhen Country could be said to be an internal threat to the Feng Country, so Tang Yin naturally would not let go of any opportunity to exterminate the Zhen Country.

He did not answer, but asked with a smile, "Is this very important?"

Li Hong heaved a long sigh, steeled his heart, and wrote down Capitulation s on the paper.

Amongst the Capitulation, Li Hong had blamed all of his mistakes, indicating that all the disputes were because of him, and that they had nothing to do with Zhen Country. He was also willing to pay the appropriate price and receive the appropriate punishment for it.

After he finished writing, Li Hong read through the details, then turned and threw the Capitulation back to Tang Yin. The latter did not accept it, but said while beaming: "Royal Brother seems to have missed a bit."

"What?" Li Hong glared at him.

"If we do not seal the Imperial Jade Seal, who knows if this Capitulation was actually written by the Royal Brother?" Tang Yin reminded his slowly.

Li Hong clenched his teeth, and in the end, took out the Chastity King's seal from his sleeve, and fiercely stamped it on the Capitulation.

The moment he finished covering the seal, Tang Yin reached out his hand and pulled the Capitulation away. Holding it in his palm, he looked at it from head to toe and then, without saying anything else, he walked out of the side room.

"Tang Yin, don't forget your promise to this king. If you dare to go back on your words, this king will not forgive you even if I become a ghost ?"

"Haha ?" Tang Yin laughed, and shrugged as he walked out: "As a person, I'm not afraid of you, but as a ghost, how would I be afraid?" As he spoke, he walked out without looking back.

As he helplessly watched Tang Yin's figure disappear outside the door, Li Hong was like a deflated balloon, and he instantly collapsed onto the ground. His face was deathly pale and his sweat poured down like rain.

When Tang Yin returned to the great hall, Li Dan and the others who had been waiting impatiently gathered around him and asked, "How is the discussion between Feng King and King Father (Great King) going?"

Smiling at everyone, Tang Yin handed over the Capitulation that Li Hong had written down to Li Dan and said: "The Chastity King has agreed to surrender. This is the Capitulation that the Chastity King has personally written down!"

Ah? Although everyone had expected such an outcome, hearing Tang Yin personally say it, they still couldn't help but take in a breath of cold air. Their eyes then focused on the Capitulation that was in Li Dan's hands.

Li Dan's hands trembled as he lowered his head to look at the Capitulation his father had written down.2

He understood King Father's temperament, making him surrender was even harder for him to accept than killing him. But now, King Father had actually written down the Capitulation, and from every single word that was said on the Capitulation, he could not see through King Father's helplessness and pain.

The feelings of the other ministers and Generals s were also very complicated. The surrender of an entire country was undoubtedly a great humiliation to the normally tough Zhen Country. As People of Zhen Country, they had no face to face with it, but what was fortunate was that the war had finally ended and they had finally not become the victims of this ridiculous war.

"The King is wise!" Tears welled up in one of the Zhen Country Ministers' eyes. With a plop, he knelt on the ground and repeatedly kowtowed towards the side room. The moment he knelt down, the other ministers and Generals s also knelt down, and as they kowtowed, their faces filled with tears.

Very quickly, Li Hong's Capitulation s spread from the Young Master Mansion to the outside of the manor. The gathered Zhen Country ministers and warriors had seen this Capitulation before, and the entire plaza immediately fell into silence. Not long after, cries could be heard from outside the Young Master Mansion.

Many of the Zhen Country soldiers involuntarily threw away the weapons in their hands. Their faces were blank as they stood there dumbly, not moving at all. To them, the sudden appearance of this Capitulation was too shocking, and too baffling.

The news of Li Hong's personal letter, that the entire country had surrendered, quickly spread throughout the Xitang City like a pair of wings. Not only did the citizens of the city hear about this, the news also spread to the ears of the defending armies of the four cities.

No matter how fierce and frequent the attacks of the allied forces were, they had never been able to reach the top of the city. But just as they were fighting with all their might against the enemy, the King behind them gave the order for the entire country to surrender, so what was the point of them fighting here right now?

Li Hong's Capitulation was able to deal as much damage to the soldiers as an atomic bomb. The morale of the people immediately plummeted and crumbled, the crowd of soldiers gave up resisting and rushed off the city walls like floodwaters, fleeing into the city.

However, at this time, the Great General, the Left and Right Prime Minister, as well as the Censors's four great officials all rushed to the four cities and officially announced Li Hong's order to the four cities' garrison. The entire army immediately gave up resisting, opened the city gates, and respectfully welcomed the allied army into the city, surrendering to the allied army.

When the Capitulation officially reached the four cities, the soldiers fell into complete despair. The sounds of fighting outside the city remained the same, but the top of the city walls were terrifyingly quiet. The Zhen Jun soldiers held the long spears in their hands and slowly slid down to the ground, crying loudly.

This was the first time the entire nation had surrendered, and an indescribable sense of humiliation was imprinted itself onto the hearts of every single People of Zhen Country in these thousands of years.

However, Li Hong, the Sovereign, had already personally ordered it. No matter how unreconciled the soldiers were or how unconvinced they were, it was useless.

Not long after, a white flag was erected on top of the four cities in the Xi Tang. At the same time, the suspension bridge was lowered and the city gates were opened wide.

After a short period of shock, Ling Shuang, Yue Ze and the other two people immediately reacted. It was definitely because of Tang Yin sneaking into the Zhen Country Palace that had a miraculous effect, and was even very likely to have already captured Li Hong, so the Virgo Army could only force themselves to surrender.

The three kings were overjoyed, and almost at the same time, they ordered the army to enter the city and temporarily imprison the surrendered Zhen Jun soldiers in their own camps.

There were no less than three hundred thousand defending troops within the Xitang City. Fortunately, the area of the allied army camp was large enough, so they easily accommodated the surrendered Zhen Jun soldiers.

Just as Yu An, Huan, and Zhen Xing were about to receive the Zhen Country attack, the Feng Army suddenly rushed in at the fastest speed possible.

After arriving, the Feng Army dispersed and surrounded the palace in three layers. The outer layer was watertight and it was tightly controlled.

The palace of the Zhen Country was filled with a large amount of treasures, and most of the important figures like Wang Qinghui and Wang Qinghu were also there, so of course the Feng Army had to seize this opportunity.

By the time Ling Shuang, Yue Ze and Li Xin reacted, they would be too late to send their own country's army to take over the palace. The Feng Army had already enclosed the palace in an iron bucket array, not a single inch of the palace's people could leave, and even outsiders would not be able to come in.
