It was not only the soldiers of the Xia Kingdom who were deeply influenced by the Xinghua Army. In fact, the defenders of Wangdong City also clearly witnessed the changes that had taken place outside the city, especially the huge sound from the mortar bombardment of the temporary camp in Zanglong Valley, which made the defenders of Wangdong City unstable.

At this time, the Xinghua army outside the city, the military uniforms they wore were really familiar to the army in Wangdong City. At that time, the memory of the Xinghua army's attack on Wangdong City still lingered in their minds. That was a great shame and a lingering nightmare for Dongli to leave the country.

"The Xinghua Army is coming!" At this moment, this news has spread throughout Wangdong City, and it is precisely for this reason that there is a serious atmosphere everywhere in Wangdong City.

Even, compared with the Xinghua Army, the Dongli Army was actually more willing to face the Xia Army. The reason is very simple, the Dongli army once defeated the army of the Xia State, which made them always feel more confident and calm when facing the Xia army. But the opposite was true for the Xinghua Army, who were defeated by the Xinghua Army, and, more importantly, more importantly, more than once.

When the same setbacks occur repeatedly, the army that has left the country from the east will inevitably feel a sense of fear and uneasiness from the bottom of the country when they hear that it is the Xinghua army.

Not only the army, but also the people who left the country in the east, from the imperial power to the ordinary people, are already very clear that to this day, the three major cities where they left the country have been occupied by the Xinghua State!

The loss of most of the country's land not only made the common people disappointed in those in power, but also had a great fear of Xinghua, and they had long lost the courage to fight back against Xinghua's army. The situation in the country is volatile. It even caused confusion and panic among the people who left the country about their future lives. Because they don't know what day they just got together. You might find out. The city or region where they are located may no longer be from the East Departure, and they will no longer be from the East Departure.

The people of Dongli who may become slaves of the country can only hope that the imperial power will be hostile to Xinghua State, or if one day, Dongli Kingdom is really annexed by Xinghua State, and the new lord will be merciful to them.

Even, the people who have left the country have gradually begun to be a little uneasy about waiting for the results. He began to inquire about the king and ruling class of Xinghua from all possible channels.

And today, the people of Dongli in Wangdong City are naturally the most like ants on a hot pot - the invincible Xinghua army is just across the wall from them, and if the Dongli army defending the city is not enough to defeat them, then today, their city will become the next city to fall.

Those who bear the same mental pressure are naturally the Dongli kings and hundreds of officials in the Dongli Palace. Therefore. When the city gate guards sent an urgent report into the palace of the east of the king. The king of Dongli and the hundred officials of Dongli, who were discussing how to defend the city, suddenly couldn't stay, and the atmosphere in the entire palace hall was quite terrifying, so quiet that even a needle could be heard on the ground.

What's more, no one wants to be the first to open their mouths to break the silence. They almost, at a loss, don't know how to respond. As a result, on the huge court, the breathing sounds of hundreds of people are intertwined with each other, in addition to hearing each other's breathing, everyone is panicked in their hearts, as if they have been hit by something, their faces are blue, and cold sweat is rising.

What to do?

In the middle of the court, the situation seems to be even worse, as if he is a prisoner who is about to be executed, with a numbness and resignation to his known fate, but also a muttering of a dying struggle. I saw that he had abnormally lost the stability and majesty that a generation of kings should have, and the panic and anxiety on his face were obvious, pacing back and forth above the court, and he suppressed his voice and shouted to the court: "Ministers, the enemy army has pressed the border, how should we deal with it?"

Outside Wangdong City, the original Xia army camp was hung with the banner of the Xinghua army, and the Xinghua army had successfully occupied the summer army camp.

However, capturing the Xia army camp was not Yi Xingchen's ultimate goal, so he did not miss the Xia army camp such a little success, and after letting the Xinghua army rest well, he immediately ordered the mortar troops to aim a hundred mortars at the main gate and city wall of Wangdong City, and at the same time, asked the artillery troops to calibrate and wait for orders.

The mortar of the Xinghua Army was visible to the defenders of Wangdong City, but what they didn't know was that Yi Xingchen had another trick to win the battle - in Wangdong City, there had always been intelligence officers from the Xinghua Kingdom.

Therefore, an hour later, the Xinghua Army learned about the situation in Wangdong City from the intelligence officers lurking in Wangdong City. A few agents of the Xinghua Intelligence Bureau and a few walkie-talkies reported the inside of the entire Wangdong City to the Xinghua Army.

From the information coming out of Wangdong City, Yi Xingchen mastered several things:

First of all, the upper floor of the king's palace in the east, for the arrival of the Xinghua army, the army pressed the border and looked outside the eastern city, the reaction was extremely frightened, as for what they would do, it is not yet known;

Secondly, the residents of Wangdong City generally did not have high expectations about the possibility that the Dongli army would be able to hold Wangdong City. Yi Xingchen knew that this was the result of the Xinghua army repeatedly defeating several cities in the east;

In addition, according to the agent's report, although the common people in Wangdong City generally expressed their disappointment with the Dongli Army, they did not have a good impression of the invasion of the Xinghua Army, but under the mixture of the two forces, the common people seemed to be a little numb, and few people resisted the possibility that the Xinghua Kingdom might take over the ruling power.

This is actually understandable, because after Xinghua Kingdom captured the two cities of Xilin City and Nantu City, it took over the ruling power of these two big cities, and then it really went on a killing spree. It's just that most of the people they killed were nobles and big landowners who refused to surrender, and for ordinary people, Xinghua has always tried its best to protect the common people. As the days go by, the common people will not be desperately resistant to outsiders who will not directly endanger their lives and property. This is also the strategy of Xinghua Kingdom, making them think that even if the king of Dongli loses, they will just change the king.

In short, the inhabitants of Wangdong City are accustomed to convincing the strong. Of course. Former king of Dongli. It was also the murderer who came to power. The prestige is high, but the reputation is very average.

Of course, the corresponding is that the nobles and large landowners who left the country in the east are full of hatred for the Xinghua army. However, the Dongli army led by them could not defeat the Xinghua army, and fear prevailed. They did not dare to fight, but they did not dare to surrender. I'm afraid when the Xinghua Army will come to a reckoning.

Therefore, the big aristocratic landlords who held the power of the Dongli Kingdom such as the king of Dongli would never surrender.

The details of Wangdong City were placed in front of Yi Xingchen and the Xinghua officers.

Yi Xingchen frowned, he wanted to get the East Departure, but he didn't want to lose too much. This is also the reason why Yi Xingchen and the cabinet want to gain the hearts of the people and postpone the war of annihilation so late.

Yi Xingchen decided to give Wangdongcheng a strategy to attack and divide. He ordered a military Chinese book. A letter of persuasion was prepared and delivered to the Dongli Imperial Court with arrows.

In the Book of Persuasion. Yi Xingchen made it clear that the Xinghua army demanded that the king of Dongli surrender to the Xinghua army in order to prevent Dongcheng from falling into war and being destroyed. As long as the king of Dongli surrendered and ordered the soldiers to lay down their arms, the Xinghua army guaranteed the safety of the lives of the hundred officials in Wangdong City, as well as the safety of some private property......

In short, as long as the king of the east is gone, everything is easy to say.

When King Dongli saw the letter of persuasion, his first reaction was to tear it up, throw it on the ground, and then step on it a few times. However, many of his officials and ministers persuaded him one after another, "No!" Then, he said a lot of loyal and patriotic words, and suggested that he send someone to negotiate peace.

King Dongli felt cold to the bone, he was not a three-year-old child. No matter how well these ministers said, they didn't know where the king was left, but his ministers had a heart to surrender. However, the king of Dongli could not kill his ministers, they were the basis of his rule.

However, it is impossible to surrender to the king of Dongli!

The king of Dongli did not want to lose his royal power, and the king who lost his royal power was no longer a king. On the one hand, the king of Dongli sent envoys out of the city in accordance with the advice of his ministers, and on the other hand, the king of Dongli sent the royal family and the loyal generals who were deeply entangled with the royal family to control the military power.

Not long after, the two ministers of peace talks in the east left the country, riding a large basket, fell vertically from the city wall to the outside of the city.

Yi Xingchen did not directly meet the minister of Dongli peace talks, but at the gate of the barracks, handed over the ultimatum of the Xinghua Army to them and asked them to take it back.

The ultimatum was very simple, that is, the king of Dongli would decide within two hours whether to open the city gate and surrender. As long as the king of Dongli agrees to surrender, under this premise, the Xinghua army can negotiate with Wangdongcheng. If you don't agree, two hours have passed, and the Xinghua army will start attacking.

The two peace ministers got the ultimatum and had to run back, under the city walls, and then in baskets, and crawl back to the palace.

King Dongli really did not expect that Xinghua Kingdom would be so resolute in demanding their surrender without any discussion. King Dongli could even feel the centrifugation of hundreds of officials in the main hall of the palace.

At this time, the king of Dongli was unwilling to fight without fighting, so he opened the city and surrendered. He ordered the defenders to keep watch over the eastern city. Some officials wanted to persuade the king to leave the east, but it just so happened that the Shenwu cannon of the country left the country - the super crystal cannon was repaired, and the person in charge ran to the main hall to leave the king to the east to express his merits.

Seeing this, King Dongli quickly suppressed the emotions of the hundred officials and told them that Wangdong City had rich food reserves, elite soldiers, and Shenwu artillery, and they were not without the strength to fight. Even, the king of Dongli also told the ministers of the hundred officials that once they defeated the Xinghua army outside the city and recovered the lost territory, it was not impossible!

The restless hearts of the hundred officials suddenly fell silent.

King Dongli is not without supporters, and half of the noble ministers are supporting King Dongli.

Yi Xingchen didn't need a reply from Dongli Guo, so he got the information from the Wangdong Intelligence Station of the Xinghua Intelligence Bureau that Dongli King had strengthened the defense of the city wall.

However, Yi Xingchen didn't care at all.

No matter how thick the walls of Wangdong City are, no matter how many equipment there are to defend the city, and how strong the defenders are, Yi Xingchen really doesn't care at all.

No matter how strong Wangdong City is, the shells of the broken guns carried by the Xinghua army are enough to clean the city wall over and over again.

Then, the default time of the two parties passes little by little.

A long time, two hours passed.

A hundred mortars of the Xinghua Royal Guard, launched the attack on time.

Boom Boom Boom ......

Looking at the city walls of Dongdong City, and the defenders behind the city walls, they suddenly fell into a spark.

The defenders of Wangdong City were wrong in their judgment, they did not expect the attack of the Xinghua army at all, it turned out to be a mortar, a kind of artillery shell projected in a parabolic manner. Their experience is still stuck in the past when the Xinghua Army used bazookas to break the city gates.

The defenders of Wangdong City blocked the entire city gate, but they put heavy troops behind the city walls.

This erroneous experience led to heavy losses for the defenders of Wangdong City.

In order to completely destroy the will of the defenders of Wangdong City, Yi Xingchen ordered the artillery of the Xinghua Army to continue to bombard the walls of Wangdong City for half an hour.

Half an hour later, the Xinghua army stopped shelling.

On the wall of Wangdong City, there was no longer a single defender standing.

The Xinghua Royal Guards had long since learned from the agents in Wangdong City that the gate was blocked. The soldiers of the Xinghua Royal Guard, carrying the ladders left behind by the Xia army, climbed the city wall......

Poor Wangdong City defenders, they didn't even have time to equip the Shenwu cannon, and they lost the city gate.

A thousand Xinghua royal guards marched in, and they followed the king's orders and slaughtered into Wangdong City. Their tasks were, first, to sweep away all the forces of resistance, and anyone who dared to stop the Xinghua army would be killed; second, to capture or eliminate the king of Dongli; and third, to gather the surrendering factions in Wangdong City and to form order.

The Xinghua Royal Guard will be supported by agents of the Intelligence Service to find the surrenderers.

Yi Xingchen did not rush into the city, but stayed in the camp, protected by three hundred artillery and some soldiers of the Xilin Legion, waiting for the result.

After another two hours, the Xinghua army, which entered the city, came with the news that the palace of Dongli had been broken and that the king of Dongli had set himself on fire.

An official of Wangdongcheng gathered the 800 remnants of Wangdongcheng and surrendered to the Xinghua army.

These Wangdongcheng surrendered troops, Yi Xingchen issued an order, sealed them official positions, granted them the position of Xinghua Guowangdongcheng City Guard, gave them the right to kill people and raid their homes, and completely punished the royal family and nobles in Wangdongcheng. Any nobleman who left the East as long as he had a weapon was regarded as an enemy and could be killed.

Yi Xingchen wants these troops to surrender and purge the upper echelons of the Dongli country, this is their vote, and they must not betray again.

Then, Yi Xingchen asked all the people in Wangdong City to be detained. Only those who have been screened, vetted, and have no threat to the Xinghua Army can be released.

Yi Xingchen never entered Wangdong City, and he remotely ordered the Xinghua Army outside the city to rule Wangdong City.

It wasn't until the legions of Xilin City, Nantu City, and Beisha City of Xinghua Kingdom came with some men and horses to completely control Wangdong City, that Yi Xingchen held a ceremony to enter the city, announcing the destruction of the East Departure Country and the rise of the Xinghua Kingdom.
