The Datong River Bridge was not destroyed.

Even if it is destroyed, the Dragon Army can appear quietly in Xijing City, then it can also appear under Ningyuan City.

In other words, staying in Ningyuan City is no different from waiting for death.

In particular, there is not much food in the city. This time, we met to support the army to go on the expedition, and basically all the grain that could be harvested was collected, and now many people in the city are already facing the situation of having no food to eat. If you stay in the city, how long can you hold out?

Thinking of all kinds of terrible consequences, the three of you are looking at me, and I am looking at you, my face is very ugly, and my eyes are full of worry about the future.

"Surrender. Contact the Dragon Heavenly King, and we will take the initiative to sacrifice the city to see what kind of conditions can be given to us." Yin Kun spoke.

This general, who has been abandoned by Yin Yuhu and survived completely on his own ability, is full of resentment towards King Xijing in his heart.

"The king may not agree." Yin Yuan and Yin Zhihao did not answer immediately, but thought for a moment before speaking. It can be seen that they have no resistance to surrender, after all, they do not want to die.

What they were worried about was whether the Dragon Heavenly King would accept their surrender. The results of the previous investigation showed that the Dragon Heavenly King hated the gentry and the powerful very much, and there were no such people in his territory, or that such people had been killed.

"Send someone to reach out. But before that, you have to control the king." Yin Kun didn't know if Su Shi would accept their surrender, but now they really had no other way.

Seeing that the Dragon Heavenly King's army was approaching, what else could they do at this time? Ask for help from Liao?

It's not that I haven't thought about it before, but since Su Shi sold low-priced grain to Liao, they have been abandoned.

Surrendering to the King of Goryeo?

Let's not talk about whether the king of Goryeo will agree, let's just say that the distance between the two sides is so far away now that it is too late in time.

Thinking about it, there is only one way to go, surrendering Sushi.

"That's... So be it." Yin Yuan sighed, although he didn't want to do anything to Yin Yuhu, but for his own survival, he could only do so.

"Alright, I'll go to see the Dragon King myself, hoping that he can give us a way out." Yin Zhihao also opened his mouth. As a wise man among the younger generation of the Yin family, he really didn't want to die, so he could only take risks.

Poor Yin Yuhu, who has only been the king of Xijing for only a few months, was kidnapped by Yin Kun and others in his mansion after the defeat.

Yin Yuhu, who was full of alcohol, scolded when he saw Yin Kun leading the troops coming, and even ordered other soldiers to resist. It's just a pity that his cronies were basically lost in the last battle, and there are not many soldiers who really listen to his orders at this time, and they can't do it on a large scale.

......

Lou Heyang picked up a life under Zhang Miao's hands.

He has now been sent back to the health center in Dingzhou City, where he has a separate ward.

Each city has its own wards, but there are never many of them, and they are usually reserved for high-ranking officials and generals. Lou Heyang can have this treatment, but also because of the result of Su Shi's concern.

Lou Heyang, who was saved from life, is recovering, her nutrition has kept up, and she doesn't have to do anything, at this time, she is a few pounds fatter than before she was admitted to the hospital, and her whole face is also very ruddy.

That is, Su Shi took special care of her, otherwise with her current recovery, she would have been discharged from the hospital a long time ago.

No one urged him to leave, and Lou Heyang did not take the initiative to leave. During her time at the health center, she really learned a lot.

The nurses knew that she was a meritorious person, and they were also very concerned about her, and they were all young women, so it didn't take long for them to get acquainted. From the mouths of these nurses, Lou Heyang also knew more about the Dragon Heavenly King.

Especially when she learned that Long Tianwang advocated the policy of equality between men and women, as a woman, she was even more moved.

I just did something trivial in order to survive, but I was grateful

Su Shi personally ordered to save himself, this is the grace of saving his life, Lou Heyang had nothing to repay, so he decided to work for Su Shi.

During this time, she begged the nurse to find some Han books for herself, and began to learn to write Chinese characters and learn to speak Chinese. To say that interest is the best teacher, when a person has made up his mind independently, his learning progress is far faster than that of some students who are forced to study to be much more efficient.

After being hospitalized for more than ten days, Lou Heyang was able to speak a few simple words of Chinese, and he knew more than 20 characters, and he made progress every day.

It was only morning, Lou Heyang, who had taken the medicine, continued to learn to write Chinese characters, and then the door of the ward was pushed open from the outside, and then a group of people poured into the ward.

Lou Heyang raised his head, and the first thing that caught his eye was a person who was extremely beautiful, with the appearance of a captivating city, like a fairy in a painting.

The person who came was Su Shi's side concubine Ye Lengchan.

Ye Lengchan, as the lieutenant of Yongcheng County, came to Dingzhou City this time to take up a post, and after seeing Su Shi, she was asked to come to the hospital to visit the hero Lou Heyang.

After the nurse next to him introduced Ye Lengchan's identity in Korean, Lou Heyang hurriedly got out of bed to greet him. This is the side princess, in the past, she was a figure who could not have been so close to her.

"You are wounded, so you don't have to salute." Ye Lengchan smiled and helped Lou Heyang, who got out of bed, and then asked how the other party's body was with a friendly face.

After learning that everything was fine, Ye Lengchan said, "You are a meritorious hero, and you just need to take care of your injuries next." In addition, there is also good news, the Xijing army has sent someone to ask the Dragon Heavenly King to surrender, and soon Ningyuan City will be liberated, and you can reunite your father and daughter at that time. At that time, I can also think about what I want to do in the future, as long as it is not too excessive, the Dragon King will be as satisfied with you as possible."

"Has the Xijing Army surrendered?" Hearing this, Lou Heyang also asked a little excitedly.

"Yes, their envoy arrived in Dingzhou City today, and is now in the Heavenly King's Mansion." Ye Lengchan nodded in confirmation.

"Great." Lou Heyang was happy and happy from the bottom of his bones, after all, there were too many people he knew in Ningyuan City, if he could solve the problems there without war, he would undoubtedly be able to kill many people.

Thinking of this, he looked at Ye Lengchan again, and Lou Heyang suddenly wanted to do something for the people, so he asked tentatively, "Your Royal Highness the Princess, are you also an official?"

"Yes, I am a county lieutenant, and according to the system of the Dragon King, I belong to the deputy department officer, and I enjoy the salary of the eighth grade." Speaking of these, Ye Lengchan was proud.

A woman who has an independent financial ability and has her own things to do is undoubtedly a very proud thing in this era.

Looking at Ye Lengchan's determined tone and confidence when she said these words, Lou Heyang asked hopefully, "I don't know, can other women also be officials?"

"Oh, you want to be an official?" Ye Lengchan asked with a smile.

"I want to do something for the people. The people are too miserable, and if there is a good ruler, they will suffer less." Lou Heyang said from the bottom of his heart. This is also a kind of thought she has experienced a lot, seen a lot, and once had.

It's just that in Goryeo, women are vassals of men, and even if you have the talent and ability, it is impossible for you to become an official.

Now that the Dragon Heavenly King advocates equality between men and women, wouldn't she have a chance and the possibility of realizing her childhood ideals.

"Ambition is good. But if you want to be an official under the rule of the Dragon Heavenly King, you must have a lot of knowledge, you must be able to speak Chinese, you must know Chinese characters, and you must be of Chinese nationality, can you do this?" Ye Lengchan was also happy that Lou Heyang had such an independent idea, so she explained it in detail.

"Yes, I will work hard, and I have learned some things these days, although it is still far from enough, but I will continue to study." Lou Heyang said confidently. She has been smart since she was a child, she learned a lot of things after watching them a few times, and she thinks that she is not stupider than others, so why can't she do it well.

"Okay, then you can continue to study and work hard, and this princess is also looking forward to the day when you can become an official." Ye Lengchan said with an encouraging smile.

......

Dragon Heavenly King's Mansion.

Yin Zhihao is here.

In order to show his sincerity, he also brought Yin Yuhu's right arm, which meant to tell Su Shi that he could call the shots about the Xijing Army now.

did not bring Yin Yuhu's head, that is, Yin Zhihao wanted to hand over the life and death of this person to Su Shi to deal with.

These clever practices, in Su Shi's eyes, he was naturally happy. He likes to deal with smart people, which can be a lot less tongue-in-cheek.

"Tell me, what do you want?" Su Shi, who was sitting high on the king's chair, looked condescendingly at Yin Zhihao.

"Heavenly King, we want to live, we want to be treated the same as ordinary people, and if possible, we also want to become officials under the Dragon Heavenly King through our own efforts." Yin Zhihao said as he looked at Su Shi, observing the changes in the other party's expressions and joy and anger.

Su Shi didn't answer immediately, but continued to look at Yin Zhihao, he knew that the other party couldn't settle for these conditions.

Seeing that Su Shi didn't speak, Yin Zhihao's face was somewhat embarrassed, but all of those who can become messengers are either practicing or being cheeky, otherwise they wouldn't be able to complete this errand. "Heavenly King, we still want to keep half of our property, you know, our Yin family is also a big family in Goryeo, and we still have some heritage over the years."

"Anything else?" Su Shi smiled meaningfully.

"Also, we also have to keep half of our land, and we will donate the remaining half, and at the same time, we still have a lot of slaves in the hands of the Yin family, and we hope to keep them all."

When Yin Zhihao just said this, Su Shi on the king's chair was already impatiently saying to Lou Yang beside him, "Come on, blast people out of Dingzhou City."
