nAt the same time, the Jin army that was attacking the city finally took down the tower of Wolf Fang Pass and opened the city gate.

nXu Yan was ecstatic when he heard the news.

nHe mobilized another 10,000 soldiers to join the battle, vowing to annihilate the Nangong Army and trample Wolf Fang Pass.

nAt this moment, the Nangong Army and the imperial court army began to retreat. They retreated in all directions.

nSeeing this, the general of the Jin army did not stop the Jin army from pursuing. Of course, most of the troops were still left behind.

nHe was prepared to enter the pass and clean it up.

nWhen Xu Yan heard the news, he was happy to take down Wolf Fang Pass and planned to enter the pass later.

nAt this moment, they heard the sound of horse hooves.

nIt was the Chu army.

nYuchi Tianqiong led 40,000 troops to surround the Jin army stationed outside the city.

nAt this moment, Xu Yan finally realized that something was wrong with the situation. However, he still felt lucky and felt that he could talk to Yuchi Tianqiong.

nAt this moment, another piece of news came.

nIt turned out that the Yan army that had fled in all directions had returned.

nMoreover, the number of people who came back was even greater than before.

nNot only did these people exterminate the Jin army that chased after them, but they also took back Wolf Fang Pass as soon as they returned.

nThe Jin army that had entered Wolf Fang Pass had now become a cornered prey.

nWhen Xu Yan heard the news, he instantly fell into his chair.

nIt was over. The 100,000 strong army had been destroyed by him…

nSoon, several generals of the Jin army barged into the tent.

nThe sound of quarreling quickly rang out.

nSome requested to fight with the Chu army, while others requested to surrender. They could not let all the Jin army die on the battlefield.

nAfter learning that the envoys from Chu and Yan were outside the tent, Xu Yan asked someone to invite them in.

nThere was no point in questioning him now. If he wanted to make peace, he had to agree to the other party’s conditions.

nYan requested to take back the cities that they had previously ceded to Jin and Chu.

nFurthermore, Jin that entered the city would not be released.

nAs for the remaining 20,000 soldiers of Xu Yan, the Yan handed over the right to deal with them to Chu.

nThis was considered an exchange for the return of Yan’s city.

nThis was the condition that Li Xiao and Yuchi Tianqiong had agreed on before, and both sides had reached an agreement long ago.

nChu’s request was for Jin to leave behind the weapons and supplies of these 20,000 soldiers, as well as compensation of money and food.

nThe number was not small, but it was still within the tolerance of Jin.

nXu Yan didn’t agree immediately, nor could he make the decision to agree. He could only send a letter back to Jin.

nBefore receiving the Jin Emperor’s reply, the high-ranking generals of Jin army were all invited into the Wolf Fang Pass.

nAs for the 20,000 soldiers of Jin, they were all trapped and could only wait for the imperial court to redeem them.

nInside Wolf Fang Pass, the Yan army had won a great victory, and it was a joyous occasion.

nYuchi Tianqiong personally congratulated him.

nThree days later, Xu Yan and Xu Qing hung themselves in the wing room.

nSix days later, Murong Xuyang’s imperial edict arrived.

nLi Xiao was granted the title Prince Anyang and was rewarded with a golden book and an iron warrant. He also let Li Xiao be in charge of all the matters of the peace talks.

nThe next day, when the Jin army was almost out of food, the Jin envoy finally arrived.

nAs expected, the Jin Emperor agreed to the request of Chu and Yan.

nAfter that, the three countries signed a new peace treaty in Wolf Fang Pass.

nAfter that, Chu and Jin’s army retreated back to the country.

nLi Xiao also took advantage of this period of time to quickly sort out the military affairs at the border, and then brought Lin Xiaoyue back to the capital to report on her work.

nWhen he entered the capital, Murong Xuyang personally led all officials out of the city to meet him.

nThe people in the capital lined the streets to welcome him.

nAfter that, Li Xiao handed over the military power and proposed to bring his wife home.

nAt this moment, the Imperial Advisor’s Residence sent a grievous news. The Imperial Advisor had passed away.

nWhen Murong Xuyang heard this news, he was speechless.

nHe had just returned to the capital. Now that he saw that his granddaughter and grandson-in-law were leaving, he did not want to wait any longer.

nYes, he mentioned to him that he wanted to retire and had even found himself an heir.

nWho was the heir?

nOf course, it was Liang Chengcai.

nHe was not very satisfied with that Young Master Liang, but…

nHe was a member of the Liang family.

nMoreover, the Imperial Advisor had already promised him that if there was anything in the future, he could still go to Qingshi Town to look for him.

nMurong Xuyang could only express his grief for the Imperial Advisor and announce the funeral.

nThe next day.

nThe weather was nice.

nLi Xiao rode a horse and escorted the two carriages back to Qingshi Town under the protection of Xiao Yang and the others.

nThe border, the chaos of war, the capital, everything was over.

nHappy and peaceful days were just around the corner.

nAfter returning to Qingshi Town, Prince Anyang stayed there for more than half a month before going back.

nThen, he issued an order to plant sweet potatoes, potatoes, cabbages, and other crops on a large scale in Anyang County.

nHalf a year later, the imperial court sent a group of ministers to personally inspect Anyang County.

nThey took away a large number of sweet potatoes and potato seeds.

nAfter another year, these two crops had spread throughout the Great Yan. The people’s livelihood had been greatly improved.

nAfter the war at the border, the Great Yan was recovering at an extremely fast speed.

nAs for the Liu Company, they were already preparing to expand outside Anyang County.

nHowever, Li Xiao had his eyes on his wife’s abdomen.

nIt was time to add a member to the family..
