There was not much time left for the eldest prince to think, and Yancheng still stood firmly in place under their desperate attack.

Although some casualties were unavoidable when defending the city, the spirits of the soldiers in Cangnan City were still very excited, and they all cheered up.

Because they have already received the news that their wise and mighty His Majesty has directly overturned the old nest of the Huns with his elite troops, and captured the King of the Huns, and now he is hanging on the opposite wall!

As long as they defend Yancheng for a period of time, these fierce-looking Xiongnu will weaken a little bit because of lack of food and grass, and the victory will eventually belong to the Great Zhou!Belongs to His Majesty!

After accepting the Hun King's surrender, Zhou Xingzhi didn't turn back right away, but let Liao Xian take the prison cart to the front line to deal with it first, and he brought [-] imperial soldiers into the Hun King's Court, and began to ask about the catapults and shells things.

"Your Majesty, we have already interrogated. The shells that can be thrown by the improved catapults were all brought by the Japanese." In less than half a day, the commander of the Royal Forest Army came with the prepared confession and physical evidence.

"People from Dongying?" Zhou Xingzhi rummaged through his memory, "They like to do business with people from the south of the Yangtze River, why did they come to the Xiongnu?"

"Your Majesty, this is a confession. I have already written what those people know." The commander of the imperial forest army did not express his personal opinion, but just handed over the confession respectfully.

Zhou Xingzhi took it and looked at it carefully.As far as she knows, the shipbuilding industry in this era is relatively average. It is no problem to go out to the small islands around, but if you are unlucky and encounter strong winds and waves, it will basically be over.

Under such a premise, it is impossible for the people of Dongying to spend so much time in order to spread the so-called knowledge. They must have a conspiracy to do so.

What are the benefits of provoking the Zhou Dynasty and the Huns to the Dongying people?Can they still take the opportunity to attack the Zhou Dynasty?

This is not right, every province and state capital has a local garrison.Unless the Dongying people come here with 10,000+ people in one brain, otherwise in the territory of Dazhou, the Dongying people will have no advantage, and they will not be able to use catapults or anything.

"Where are those Dongying people? Have you caught them?" Zhou Xingzhi asked after reading the confession.

The commander of the Imperial Forest Army shook his head, "They were all taken away by the eldest prince of the Huns, who said they wanted to fight together."

Zhou Xingzhi put the confession aside, picked up the brush on the other side, and quickly wrote a letter, and then stamped his personal seal.

"Send this letter back to the capital as quickly as possible, and it must be delivered to the Queen. Only when you see the Queen open the letter with your own eyes." Zhou Xingzhi paused, "Forget it, you go there yourself. ,be careful on the road."

"But, Your Majesty..." The commander of the Imperial Forest Army stopped before he finished speaking, and immediately changed his words, "I obey the order, and I will definitely deliver the letter to the Empress Dowager!"

"Well, let's go." Zhou Xingzhi was very satisfied with the response of the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, so that obedient subordinates could use it smoothly.

While the letter was still on the way, the first and third princes of the Xiongnu couldn't hold on.When they attacked, they formulated a strategy of supporting war by fighting. Now that they have been attacking Yancheng for a long time and cannot get supplies, the food they brought has already been eaten. The morale of the army has already dissipated.

Holding the last hope, the eldest prince and the third prince meet up to see if they can take back their homeland.

There was no doubt that this move was nothing more than a waste of the day.After seeing the people on the city wall who had already vented more air than breathed in, they had nothing to do.

"I want to see the emperor of the Zhou Dynasty, and I want to have peace talks with the emperor face to face!" After finding that he had no way to turn the situation against the wind, the eldest prince could only choose to compromise in the end.

"Your Majesty is always busy, so there is no time to see you." Liao Xian sneered, "We are not talking about a truce when the two armies are confronting each other, but our Majesty is benevolent and can't bear to let 10 of you starve to death here. Give you a chance to surrender and live, understand?"

At this time, I still want to put on airs. If these people can be used as labor force in the future, Liao Xian would like to shoot with a bow and take this person's life directly.

The eldest prince's face was very dark, but no matter how angry and dissatisfied he was, he was powerless to refute Liao Xian's words, because what he said was true, if Da Zhou did not accept their surrender, most of these people would have died here.

"Surrender, I surrender." The eldest prince and the third prince got off their horses, walked to the city wall, dropped their weapons and knelt on the ground.

Following their actions, the remaining Huns dropped their weapons and knelt on the ground to express their submission.

Zhou Xingzhi stayed at the Xiongnu's side to finish the work, and he didn't realize it until after he was busy.When I was in Cangnan City, I ordered them to deliver a letter every seven days, and a few days ago, I asked the commander of the Yulin Army to go there personally. Bar?

I don't know if the commander of the Imperial Forest Army is clever enough, and if he can help him get things back.

"You said that you collected these evidences to tell His Majesty?" Ye Ningxuan almost received two letters. The completely different contents of the letters aroused her suspicion.

It doesn't make sense that the front foot is still recuperating in Cangnan City, and the back foot ran to the court of the Huns to give him a pot.

"Yes, His Majesty saw that the main force of the Xiongnu was besieging Yancheng, so he ordered his subordinates and General Liao to surprise the Xiongnu." The head of the Imperial Forest Army Commander was not bad, and he barely dealt with Ye Ningxuan's question.

"That is to say, the Hun King was captured?" Ye Ningxuan asked, although there is no problem reading the two letters individually, but when reading them together, there are many contradictions.

"Yes, there are only more than 1 Xiongnu guarding the city. We didn't have to take any action until the end. They all chose to surrender after walking around with people." The commander of the Imperial Forest Army said half-truthfully.

"Did the King of the Huns surrender to that so easily? Did His Majesty issue so many orders in advance? Or did His Majesty just follow you?" Ye Ningxuan felt something was wrong.Zhou Xing knew that this was a personal conquest by the royal driver, would she go if she had such a good chance to gain prestige?

"Your Majesty is a man of gold, and it is impossible for the ministers to let His Majesty take risks! Your Majesty has a far-sighted vision, and has set out a rough strategy when we set off. Our actions are all within His Majesty's expectations." The back of the commander of the Imperial Forest Army Already started to break out in a cold sweat, the empress's questions became more and more sharp, he was about to be overwhelmed!

"Oh? Then when did His Majesty give you this letter?" Ye Ningxuan continued to ask, squinting slightly at the commander of the imperial forest army, as if she wanted to see through him with her eyes.

"This..." The commander of the Imperial Forest Army had a crazy brainstorm. If he came back from Cangnan City, it would only take three days.

"Return to your mother's words, three days ago!" The commander of the Imperial Forest Army gave the answer.

"Oh?" Ye Ningxuan smiled, "Then you started attacking the Huns a few days ago?"
