How could this general of the Shenlong Empire be so cruel, beheading the two rulers of Shule and Khotan at the slightest disagreement!
Seeing Deng Ai's icy eyes and looking over here, King Jingjue, King Pishan and others were so frightened that their legs became weak and they knelt down on the ground involuntarily!
"General of the Celestial Dynasty, I... we were forced to."

"Yes... yes, King Shule and King Khotan threatened us. If we don't join them, they will deal with us first."

"We are all forced to be helpless!"

All the lords of the Western Regions, who were high above them all, were as humble as slaves in front of the army of the Dragon Empire, kowtowing their heads and begging for mercy!

"Being helpless?"

Deng Ai's expression eased, he sat down on the chair, stretched out a finger, tapped the table lightly, and suddenly showed a smile,
"Since this is the case, it is not impossible to spare your lives, but it depends on your attitude."

our attitude?

King Jingjue was taken aback for a moment, then reacted instantly, and shouted,
"I, Jingjueguo, wish to swear allegiance to the Dragon Empire to the death from now on!"

The lords of the other countries also shouted in unison, as if waking up from a dream.

"I, Pishan Country, wish to serve the Dragon Empire!"

"Qule Kingdom is willing to serve the Dragon Empire!"

"The Kingdom of Shache pledges allegiance!"

"..."

One after another, voices resounded in the crowd.

Seeing this, Deng Ai couldn't help showing a satisfied smile.

He waved his hand,
"Come, give seats to the lords of the country!"

The big stone in the hearts of all the kings fell to the ground, and they sat on the chair carefully.

"Since you are willing to be loyal to our Shenlong Empire, what do you say to Shule and Khotan who dare to disrespect our Shenlong Empire?"

King Jingjue didn't even think about it, so he acted like he was filled with righteous indignation,

"Naturally, it will be soon after it is destroyed!"

Deng Ai laughed loudly,
"Very well, then please, lords, hand over all your troops for the time being, and we will take care of the armies of Khotan and Shule."

"This……"

King Jingjue and the others looked at each other with hesitation.

"Why, don't you want to?"

Deng Ai's complexion sank, and a cold light shone in his eyes!

King Jingjue's heart skipped a beat, and from the corner of his eye he caught sight of the corpses of King Yutian and King Shule on the ground, and said quickly,
"I am willing!"

With the first one taking the lead, the rest naturally nodded in agreement.

It didn't take long for Deng Ai to gather all the troops from these ten countries, about [-] people.

Although it is not as good as the [-] troops of Khotan and Shule, at least it has the power to fight.

At this moment, the fire on the west side of the city had been extinguished, and the soldiers from Khotan and Shule, who had learned of the situation on Wangzhang's side, were rushing over here.

"Zhang Bao! Zhao Guang! Zhao Tong! Guan Xing!"

Deng Ai said in a low voice.

"The end is here!"

The four people came out more and more and responded in unison.

"Lead your soldiers immediately to face the enemy, remember to kill the enemy first, and don't love to fight!"

Deng Ai ordered.

"Here!"

The four of them went out hand in hand, leading [-] elite soldiers of the dragon army and [-] coalition troops to kill them from the king's tent!
……

Due to the darkness of the night, and the strength of the [-] coalition forces, which were far inferior to those of Shule and Khotan, the war did not end until dawn.

Under the brave fighting of the four generals of Guan Xing, the [-] troops of Khotan and Shule were defeated, and there were countless casualties!
It was bright day, standing on the sand dunes outside the city, looking at the half-ruined west city under his feet, the kings of Jingjue, Qule and other countries all felt fear in their hearts.

Is this the power of the Han people? It's simply too terrifying!

When they were in a daze, Deng Ai came over from a distance with his soldiers.

The crowd rushed up to greet them, respectfully saying,

"I've seen the general!"

"Excuse me."

Deng Ai waved his hand and smiled casually,

"Last night, the Khotan and Shule armies were defeated. This cannot be done without your efforts."

"The general is serious. Without you, how could we defeat them?"

King Jingjue's words came from the heart.

Don't say that their military strength is smaller than Khotan and Shule, even if they are evenly matched, they are probably not opponents.

Everything lies in the four generals of the Dragon Empire and the two thousand elite soldiers!

"Let's not talk about the Shule Kingdom for the time being. The King of Khotan is dead, and the Khotan Kingdom has no leader. It can't continue to be chaotic like this. We should think of a charter."

Deng Ai said lightly.

The Jingjue King, Pishan King, and Shache King all had bright eyes!
They all heard the implication of Deng Ai's words.

The kingdom of Khotan has no leader, which is a good opportunity to annex it!

You must know that the Khotan Kingdom has a large population and a vast territory, occupying several large-scale oases in the southern part of the Western Regions.

No matter who annexes it, its strength will definitely be greatly improved!

"Then... according to the general, how should we manage it?"

King Jingjue swallowed his saliva, suppressed the heat in his heart, and said carefully.

Deng Ailue pondered for a moment, then smiled and said,

"King Jingjue is loyal to our Dragon Empire, so why don't you manage the cities bordering Yutian Kingdom and Jingjue Kingdom!"

As soon as this remark came out, not to mention King Jingjue, even the other kings were taken aback!
These Khotanese cities occupied almost half of the territory of Khotan, and they were handed over to King Jingjue so lightly?
"Please rest assured, General, I... I will swear allegiance to the Dragon Empire to the death, and manage... Khotan!"

King Jingjue came back to his senses, he was so excited that he stuttered when speaking.

And the eyes of the other kings looking at him are also full of envy, jealousy and hatred!

Seeing this situation, the corners of Deng Ai's mouth could not help but curl up slightly.

Threatening all the kings with their lives first, they were forced to deal with Khotan and Shule together.

Then take out a part of the territory of Khotan, and award it to King Jingjue who responded first.

In this way, the rest of the kings will only be envious of King Jingjue, and thus hug the thigh of Shenlong Empire even more for the benefit.

This is what Cao Mao once taught Deng Ai, a slap and a sweet date!
Now it seems that it really works!
"This general intends to go on an expedition to Shule Kingdom immediately, are you willing to accompany me?"

Deng Ai said lightly,

"After conquering Shule Kingdom, the most outstanding performer will be rewarded heavily by this general!"

Upon hearing this, all the kings immediately rushed to express their opinions,
"Pishan country is willing to follow!"

"Go to Shache Kingdom!"

"And we, Qule Kingdom!"

All the kings responded without the slightest hesitation!

joke.

If you don't accompany them, I'm afraid you will end up in the end of Khotan and Shule!

And if they go together and perform well, they are very likely to get huge benefits like King Jingjue!

Any fool knows how to choose!

In this way, after simple discussions, Deng Ai formed a coalition army composed of Jingjue, Pishan and other countries.

These country lords deployed troops from their respective countries, and finally reached [-]!

Just when Deng Ai was planning to lead the [-] coalition troops to conquer Shule, bad news came.
