The Return of the Demon

After several days, the battlefield was completely cleaned up.

Ning Chen ordered that civilians should not be massacred, women should not be raped...but he did not say that looting was not allowed.

Shengguang City was almost looted.

The reason why I said almost was because Ning Chen left food for the people to survive.

Because he would station troops in Shengguang City.

When the king of Xiliang presented a letter of surrender and bowed his head, he would station 50,000 troops in Shengguang City.

Xiliang is now militarily weak and has no power to protect itself. In order to prevent the destruction of the country, Ning Chen will leave 50,000 soldiers to protect Xiliang.

Of course, these 50,000 soldiers must be supported by Xiliang, and food and military pay must be provided by Xiliang.

But now the most important thing is to capture Dingtiancheng.

Dingtiancheng is the last line of defense of the capital of Xiliang.

As long as Dingtiancheng is captured, they can march straight to the capital of Xiliang.

Xiliang now has no soldiers available, so Ning Chen is not in a hurry.

He ordered the soldiers to have a good rest.

In fact, it was also to wait...wait for the news of the surrender of the Xiliang royal family.

At dinner time, Ning Chen had his dinner delivered to Tan Tai Qingyue's tent.

Ning Chen sat at a small low table with wine and food on it.

Ning Chen had his own small kitchen.

"Come here!"

Ning Chen waved to Tan Tai Qingyue next to him.

Tan Tai Qingyue came over silently.

Ning Chen said: "Pour wine for me!"

Tan Tai Qingyue's eyes were cold and stiff for a while, then she clenched her teeth and picked up the wine pot to pour wine for Ning Chen.

Ning Chen picked up the wine glass and drank it all, saying: "This is my Daxuan's fairy dew, which I researched... I plan to sell it to Xiliang in the future and make a lot of money from you Xiliang."

Tan Tai Qingyue: "......."

"Don't just stand there, pour the wine!"

Looking at Tan Tai Qingyue with a frustrated face, Ning Chen smiled and asked: "Do you think your Xiliang royal family will surrender or resist to the end?"

Tan Tai Qingyue was like a mute, not saying a word.

Ning Chen looked at her, "Are you mute? Do you want me to pry your mouth open with a part of my body?"

With a bang!

The wine pot was broken.

It was crushed by Tan Tai Qingyue.

Ning Chen narrowed his eyes and looked at her, "It's a pity to waste such good wine... Tan Tai Qingyue, didn't I tell you not to put on your saintly airs? You are now just a prisoner... As long as the king wants, I can rape you at any time."

"You should be thankful that you still have some beauty, so the king keeps you... But you have to know your identity. You are not the best in martial arts, nor the saint of Xiliang, but the slave of the king."

Tan Tai Qingyue's body trembled with anger.

Ning Chen snorted coldly and asked someone to bring another pot of wine.

Ning Chen pointed to the wine pot, "Take it, if the wine pot breaks again, I will start counting the fragments... One fragment represents the life of a member of the Xiliang royal family."

"Tan Tai Qingyue, you... your name is too long. Since you will stay by my side and serve me in the future, the king will give you a new name, called... Xiao Tanzi."

Xiao Tanzi?

The corners of Tan Tai Qingyue's mouth twitched fiercely.

Ning Chen smiled and said, "It seems that you are very satisfied with the name I gave you... Answer my previous question, will the Xiliang royal family surrender or resist?"

Tan Tai Qingyue was silent for a long time, and slowly said, "For the sake of the people of Xiliang, they should surrender, right?"

Ning Chen burst out laughing.

"Don't flatter the Xiliang royal family. If you flatter them crookedly, they will look like shit...Don't do anything for the people. They surrender because they are afraid of death. They are reluctant to give up the luxurious life and wealth."

"But you said that the Xiliang royal family will surrender. This coincides with my guess...Then why don't you guess again, how long will it take for me to see the surrender letter from the Xiliang royal family?"

Tan Tai Qingyue shook her head, "I don't know!"

"Don't say you don't know. Just give me a number."

Tan Tai Qingyue thought for a while and said, "Ten days at the latest."

Ning Chen laughed, "Okay, then ten days... If I don't see the surrender letter after ten days, I will lead my army to flatten the capital of Xiliang."

Tan Tai Qingyue stared at him intently.

Ning Chen was in a good mood, with a smile on his face.

Ning Chen put down the empty wine glass in his hand and said casually: "By the way, you are so thin, but your silk armor fits me perfectly... I think about it, there is only one reason... yours is very big."

Crack!

Cracks appeared on the wine pot.

Ning Chen's eyes sank, staring at him coldly, his eyes sharp.

Tan Tai Qingyue hurriedly said: "No, it's not broken!"

Ning Chen was stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt that this woman was a little cute.

"Then you have to hold it well, what you are holding in your hand now is not a wine pot, but the life of your Xiliang royal family... Also, you are now like this wine pot, holding it in your hand is a wine pot, and letting go is a pile of dregs, so don't try to provoke me, I don't have a good temper."

Ning Chen finished speaking and stretched, "I'm full... someone come."

The Ning'an Army soldiers guarding the door hurried in.

Ning Chen pointed to the food on the table, "Put it away!"

"Yes!"

Ning Chen stood up and walked out of the tent.

Suddenly, he paused and looked back at Tan Tai Qing Yue, "Have you not eaten yet?"

Tan Tai Qing Yue nodded.

Ning Chen ordered the soldier at the door: "Go, bring her two rations."

Tan Tai Qing Yue: "..."

Ning Chen returned to his tent and found Yuan Long waiting for him.

"What do you want to ask me?"

Yuan Long leaned forward and said, "Your Highness, I just want to ask, what should we do with those captives... More than 100,000 people, it's such a waste of food."

Ning Chen thought for a while and said, "You go and inform Lan Ziyao to lead 50,000 troops back to the border, and escort those prisoners of war, and let them build Xuanwu City."

Originally, he wanted to return these people to Xiliang, but then he thought, this is a 100,000-strong army, and returning it to Xiliang is undoubtedly raising a tiger to harm.

Building Xuanwu City requires a lot of financial and human resources, and this kind of free labor should not be wasted.

If he is right, Xuanwu City should have been started.

Originally, Ning Chen wanted to build Xuanwu City into a modern city with high-rise buildings, but he immediately gave up the idea.

He came from a time travel, but he is not omnipotent.

He is an outsider in infrastructure, not as good as the craftsmen in this world.

Just like being able to eat does not mean being able to cook.

There are too many things he wants to make, tanks, planes, Barrett, he wants to make them all... but he can't make them.

These are all high-precision things, thousands and tens of thousands of parts, how to make them?

First, the technology in this world is not up to the standard.

Second, he doesn't know how to make them.

He is a special forces soldier, he knows guns and can use them, but it doesn't mean he can make Barrett... Just like a swordsman with superb swordsmanship, even if he has reached the point of unity between man and sword, it doesn't mean he can make a sword, because this is the job of a swordsmith.

If every soldier can make planes and tanks, then what are those top technical talents and scientists for?

In the next few days, Ning Chen kept his troops in place.

If Xiliang has no intention of surrendering within ten days, he will send troops to attack the capital of Xiliang.
