As the Samanid soldiers endured hunger and thirst, their morale plummeted.

Especially late at night, the temperature in the entire city of Samantha dropped considerably. Coupled with not having eaten or drunk anything for a long time, their strength was also failing.

At this moment, these Saman soldiers were all thinking to themselves: they hoped that the Da Gan army would not launch an attack that night, so that they could have a peaceful night.

However, it is clear that this idea is flawed!

In particular, the Great Khan of Urud, since the retreat of the steppe royal court all the way here, had some understanding of the tactics of the Da Gan army.

Night combat is also something that the Da Gan Army excels at!

Looking back at the few thousand grassland bandits remaining under his command, Khan Urut took a deep breath, his face grim.

"Great Khan,"

The Right Khan beside him sighed helplessly and said, "If Khalkha Beile were still alive, how would he have resolved our current predicament?"

"he?"

Uruq Khan took a deep breath, gazing at the calm night sky, and said, "Khalhana's dying wish was for us to evacuate Saman City, but that method is no longer possible. If he were here now, I guess..."

A bitter expression appeared on Uruq Khan's face as he said, "I guess they'll surrender to the Da Gan army..."

surrender?

Upon hearing these two words, the Right Khan raised an eyebrow, but did not say anything more.

After all, given the current situation, surrendering to the enemy is actually a very good option!

In this way, the last bit of strength of the grassland bandits can be preserved.

If they don't surrender, they'll probably all die in Saman!

"Perhaps!"

The Right Khan sighed.

After a moment, the Right Khan seemed to have thought of something. He turned to look at the Great Khan of Urut and said, "Great Khan, perhaps we should..."

The Right Khan did not finish speaking, but at this moment, his gaze was fixed intently on the Great Khan of Uruq, and the meaning in his eyes and the implication in his words were already very clear.

"Um?"

The Khan of Uruq and the Khan of the Right Banner exchanged a glance, then nodded and said, "Alright, assemble the troops immediately, and let's surrender under the cover of night!"

The two immediately reached an agreement.

Under the cover of night, the Great Khan of Urud and the Right Khan gathered their remaining steppe bandits and quietly made their way towards the outer city.

Upon entering the outer city, the Great Khan of Uruq immediately ordered his men to raise the white flag.

"Battalion Commander, Battalion Commander..."

A staff officer pointed into the distance and said, "Look over there, someone is coming with a white flag. Looks like they want to surrender?"

How many people are there?

The battalion commander was also stunned and quickly picked up his binoculars to look in that direction.

The battalion commander was stunned when he saw it.

In the darkness of night, there was a huge, dark mass of people, numbering in the thousands!

"Warning! Warning! Be careful, everyone!"

The battalion commander quickly gave the order.

With these large army soldiers standing ready, Uruq Khan led his steppe bandits from afar and arrived at this location.

To the battalion commander's surprise, these grassland bandits were not carrying any weapons, and it seemed that they really had come to surrender!

The battalion commander immediately ordered his soldiers to keep these people under guard and also reported the news to the front-line command post.

...

"Oh? Really?"

Zhao Chun, commander of the Northwest Military Region, wearing an overcoat, looked up and stared wide-eyed at his staff officer beside him, asking, "Is what you're saying true? The grassland bandit Khan Urut has surrendered with his troops?"

"Yes, Commander Zhao!"

The staff officer nodded in reply.

"I never expected this!"

Zhao Chun chuckled and said, "These grassland bandits have been on the run for so long, and they've actually surrendered here! I really didn't expect that!"

"Commander Zhao,"

The staff officer asked, "What should we do with these people?"

"Find a location in the prisoner-of-war camp outside the city and gather these people together for safekeeping."

Zhao Chun pondered for a moment and said, "We'll deal with it after the battle is over!"

"yes!"

The staff officer quickly responded.

Not long after, the Great Khan of Urud, the Right Khan, and six or seven thousand steppe bandits and their families were all settled in the prisoner camp outside Saman City.

Meanwhile, the news also reached the ears of Saman Khan Kuli Saman.

"What?"

When Kulisaman heard this news, his eyes widened in shock. "What did you say? Urut and the others ran away? They surrendered to the Da Gan army?"

"Yes, Great Khan!"

The confidant lowered his head and replied in a deep voice.

"Damn it! Scumbag! Scumbag!"

Kulisaman flew into a rage, roaring, "What are these Urut people trying to do? They've even lost their own steppe royal court, and they don't know any shame. Now they're actually joining forces with their enemy's army! Urut has utterly disgraced his ancestors and the Eternal Heaven!"

Even after hurling a few angry curses, Kulisaman remained unsatisfied with his rage.

Although he knew that the number of grassland bandits under the command of the Great Khan of Uruq was not large.

However, for the remaining defenders in the inner city of Samantha, this was a signal!

Even the Khan of Urud surrendered to the Da Gan army and was treated well.

If they surrender, they can probably save their lives!

At least, I won't die here!

News of Uruq Khan's surrender spread throughout the outer and inner cities of Saman. More and more Samanis learned of this news, and various thoughts arose in their minds.

Some of the Samanis had blank stares and were thinking all sorts of things!

Just as these rumors were spreading among the Samanian defenders, a series of shrill screams echoed through the sky once again.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

A faint orange-red light flickered incessantly in the air. In the firelight, even black dots could be seen flying towards the inner city of Saman, growing larger and larger.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

In the blink of an eye, a dense barrage of shells rained down on the inner city of Samantha, creating deafening explosions.

In an instant, flames erupted throughout the inner city of Saman, and the Saman people, who had hoped to have a peaceful night, were utterly disappointed.

"Quick! Hide! Hide!"

Inside the city, shouts, shrill screams, explosions, and the crackling of burning houses mingled together, creating a unique symphony!

"Hurry up! Keep up! Keep up!"

Meanwhile, outside the inner city, large numbers of soldiers launched an attack on the inner city of Saman.

In the firelight, one could clearly see fully armed soldiers rushing in, carrying Yanning rifles.

Da da da!

Da da da!

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The sounds of machine guns and rifles mingled together.

A hail of bullets, trailing orange-red light, shot towards the inner city wall.

In the night sky, they bloom with a unique and dazzling splendor!
