The Rhapsody of Mounted Blade Players

The reason why this group of enemies could persist in not surrendering before was because they were still looking forward to the arrival of reinforcements. However, after so many days, none of the reinforcements were seen, and many of them knew about it through their own channels. Those reinforcements had disappeared halfway, and there was no hope of continuing to defend here, so they all suggested surrender to the defenders of Baiyang City. After all, their lives were precious, and coming here was actually gold-plated. I don’t want to be buried here in vain.

The garrison of Baiyang City also knew that these officers had extraordinary status, so seeing that all the troops in their hands had been lost, they could only agree to the requests of these guys, hung a white flag on the city lord's mansion, and chose to surrender.

Although he knew that these enemies had lost their troops and had little power to resist, for the sake of safety, Zhou Xiaoyang still led his troops personally to receive the surrendered troops.

Under the leadership of the Baiyang City guard, groups of enemy troops quickly walked out of the positions around the city lord's mansion. After arriving at the location specified by Zhou Xiaoyang, they obediently dropped their weapons.

Zhou Xiaoyang watched this scene not far away, but found that some enemy soldiers had broken clothes and armors and were covered with various scars, while there were still some guys who were neatly dressed and had no wounds at all.

Obviously, those guys with tattered armor should be ordinary soldiers, while those neatly dressed guys are members of the demon officer corps. Through communication with the rear, Zhou Xiaoyang already knew that these guys had many connections with extraordinary status! So even the Baiyang City defender would not dare to order those related households to fight! This has led to the current strange situation.

Zhou Xiaoyang didn't know how His Majesty the Emperor would deal with these related households, so he didn't dare to kill them directly, but had them imprisoned in isolation. In order to prevent anyone from coming to rob the prisoners, heavy troops had to be stationed to guard the surrounding areas.

As for Ye Tianlong, he was currently negotiating with the envoys sent by the big guys behind the connections.

At the beginning, the attitude of these guys was still very arrogant. They asked Ye Tianlong to release the officer corps that was surrounded by Baiyang City. Otherwise, they would send troops to attack the Qinglong Empire, which would increase the pressure on Ye Tianlong.

However, how could Ye Tianlong be frightened by a few words from these guys! Seeing that these guys were so arrogant, Ye Tianlong simply ignored them, and from time to time deliberately let people know that Baiyang City had been completely captured and that all the officer corps had been captured.

Now the envoys were finally anxious. They were afraid that Ye Tianlong would directly quarrel with him, so they finally chose to sit down and have a good talk with Ye Tianlong.

However, these guys were still very stingy and could not pay much in exchange for the captured connections. Ye Tianlong had been arguing with them for a long time, but these guys were only willing to offer 100,000 gold coins and 1,000 soul crystals.

Ye Tianlong was almost out of patience with these guys, and his eyes slowly revealed murderous intent, which was immediately noticed by the envoys on the opposite side.

In order to be able to complete their mission, these guys finally gave some more benefits to the Emperor of the Azure Dragon Empire.

The new benefits given by these guys also surprised Ye Tianlong. These guys actually said that as long as Ye Tianlong released those related households, the big bosses behind them would convince the demons in Deep Blue Star to sign an agreement with the Qinglong Empire. An armistice lasting at least three years.

To be honest, this Deep Blue Star has suffered heavy population losses due to the invasion of the Xuangu Continent and the demons, and various production facilities have not been able to be repaired! The areas that Ye Tianlong recovered were basically in ruins, so after fighting for such a long time, the Qinglong Empire's money bag was almost empty. If those demons could really make a truce for three years and give him such a period of recuperation. If so, that would be great, but I’m afraid these guys won’t keep their word!

So because of the renegade of these demons, Ye Tianlong immediately made his request, that is, the prisoners should be released in two batches. After the big bosses persuaded the demons of Deep Blue Star and signed an armistice agreement, he would release half of them first. Prisoners, and then after three years, if those demons did not violate the agreement, he would release the remaining half of the prisoners.

Those demon envoys agreed to these requests made by Ye Tianlong after some discussion. After all, just three years was really nothing to a long-lived race like their demons.

As for the interests of those fellow demons in Deep Blue Star being harmed, there is nothing they can do about it. These guys are so useless that they cannot even protect their connections with the big bosses!

And just when Ye Tianlong had just signed the agreement with these demon messengers, a burst of noise suddenly reached Ye Tianlong's ears from outside the house.

After Ye Tianlong sent away the demon messengers, he asked the guard at the door: "What happened?"

"Your Majesty, it's a group of students who are clamoring outside to ask you to expel those demon messengers and not to sign any unequal treaties." The guard replied to Ye Tianlong with an ugly expression.

Ye Tianlong couldn't help being surprised when he heard this. After all, the negotiation between these demon messengers was very confidential. Except for a few senior officials of the Qinglong Empire, no one else knew about it at all. How could these students get it so quickly? After knowing this news, you are still making trouble here!

After just a moment's thought, Ye Tianlong understood that there must be someone behind this, and the rumors that he had signed an unequal treaty with the demon messenger here must have been spread by those guys.

To be honest, Ye Tianlong had not been in power for long and was usually busy fighting abroad, so he did have some lack of management at home. This resulted in the former Song officials whose interests were damaged and the officials and gentry of the original Xinghan Empire having the opportunity to interact with each other. They colluded and made a lot of small moves secretly.

But this time their actions were indeed a bit bigger, and they also directly caught Ye Tianlong's weakness. After all, he valued those students very much, and he hoped that after these students graduated, they could take over and let those double-minded people All the officials of the previous dynasty got out.

But he didn't expect that a group of students were unknowingly deceived by those guys, and even stood up as vanguards against him this time.

In order to prevent the situation from escalating, Ye Tianlong did not even bother to drink a sip of water after the negotiation, and immediately came to the outside of the city lord's palace under the escort of a group of guards.

What makes Ye Tianlong heave a sigh of relief is that the number of students who instigated deception is not many, only about five or six hundred, and the students he currently trains in schools all over the country add up to more than 100,000. .

When the students who blocked the city lord's palace saw the emperor Ye Tianlong, their shouts became even louder. They were all trying to persuade Ye Tianlong not to sign any unequal treaty with those demon messengers, and also wanted Ye Tianlong to kill all the demons in the Qinglong Empire. All were killed and expelled.

Hundreds of people shouted together, and the sound was really loud and noisy. Ye Tianlong's head hurt from the noise. He was so angry that he opened his mouth and yelled: "Shut up!"

With this loud roar, Ye Tianlong blessed some of his internal energy, which immediately shocked the students, most of whom were in their teens, and made them dizzy and unable to continue shouting.
