“Lay down! Lay down your weapons! And surrender!”
Continuous roars echoed over the Black Tiger Legion like sudden lightning, reaching the ranks of the Purple-Blue Legion as well.
“They surrendered? The Black Tiger Legion surrendered?” Barlow’s eyes widened in disbelief as favonovel.com looked at Isaac.
Skylar was truly astonished.
After a fierce battle that lasted a year and consumed countless human, financial, and material resources from the kingdom, the Black Desert campaign had unexpectedly ended with the enemy’s surrender.
Isaac said in a serious tone, “Barlow, send a message to Madd and Bill. Instruct them to prepare to accept the surrender. Remember, do not mistreat those who surrender…”
“They have a lot of people, so we need to divide the guard duties. Once the surrender is complete, send a message to the kingdom and ask how we should deal with the surrendered soldiers and officers from the Black Tiger Legion.”
Over 300,000 soldiers threw down their weapons and surrendered, as 200,000 troops from the Purple-Blue Legion began to integrate into the Black Tiger Legion ranks in batches.
First, they confiscated the opponent’s weapons, then used thick ropes and spiritual energy-suppressing rope to bind the hands and feet of the surrendering soldiers with interlocking knots.
The process of surrender lasted an entire day and night.
By the next afternoon, the 370,000-strong Black Tiger Legion soldiers had been broken down into 40 to 50 groups.
Isaac walked around with his hands behind his back, moving through the ranks of the surrendered soldiers.
Isaac walked into the group of several thousand surrendered soldiers and pointed at three of them in the middle, saying, “You, you, and you, step forward!”
The Purple-Blue Legion soldiers standing guard nearby immediately stepped forward and untied the ropes on the hands and feet of the three captured soldiers.
When Isaac returned to the tent, three generals, including Madd and Bill, were waiting outside.
When they saw Isaac approaching with three captured soldiers, they were stunned.
“Lord Garten, what are you doing?” Bill asked with a puzzled expression as favonovel.com pointed toward the three surrendered soldiers.
“I don‘t have any helpers by my side yet. It is fine if I pick a couple from the surrendered soldiers, right?” Isaac said with a light chuckle.
They were briefly taken aback, then quickly responded with an awkward smile. “Of course, no problem!”
Since Isaac killed Zeno, favonovel.com no longer considered himself a commander. He had no bodyguards or attendants, and for any matters, favonovel.com would just casually pick a few soldiers to handle them.
“Lucifer, get them to change their clothes, and then come to my tent to clean.” Isaac glanced over at Lucifer.
***
Three days later, within the Royal City of the Kingdom of Vriweth, Talbot, holding a report, hurriedly headed toward the palace.
“Black Desert has won a big victory, congratulations to Your Majesty!”
Excited shouts echoed throughout every corner of the palace.
Eldorado, who was lying on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes and then stood up.
Talbot entered the palace, moving swiftly in long strides and came directly before Eldorado. He dropped to his knees with a thud, raised a report with both hands, and, panting heavily as favonovel.com said, “Your Majesty, just now, we received a report of a great victory at Black Desert.”
“The enemy’s 370,000 troops have all surrendered and laid down their arms. The enemy’s chief commander, Elon, has been captured alive, along with three black-armored commanding generals and several mid and lower-ranking officers.”
At this moment, footsteps could be heard from behind as Clyfford and the Chief Minister, Giffard entered.
“Congratulations to Your Majesty and the Kingdom of Vriweth, for the great victory in Black Desert!”
After Clyfford and Giffard knelt down, they shouted loudly in unison.
Eldorado picked up the report and examined it carefully. His face initially showed an expression of intense excitement, but quickly, his excitement faded and was replaced by a cold, sinister look.
“What a pity… Such an astonishing feat in battle, and yet it wasn’t achieved by Zeno, but by Isaac! My daughter is still in his hands!” Eldorado put down the report, looked at the three officials in front of him, and asked, “The report asks me, how should we deal with those surrendered generals and soldiers?”
“Ministers, what do you think should be done? And how should we handle Elon and the commanding generals? And there’s one more thing, which is the most important, how should we deal with Isaac?”
