The Donglu tribe's intention was very clear. They wanted to sacrifice these 600,000 old soldiers to tie down the Han army's rebellion suppression efforts.

The chief general of the Donglu tribe who stayed behind in Binglong City is Aodu, the leader of the Zhenghei Banner. He is the cousin of the Donglu Khan Dagala and is 58 years old this year.

"Captain, the scouts reported that the Han army has left Yingshan City. According to the Han army's marching speed, they will arrive here in about three days." A white-haired Donglu tribe general said to Ao Du.

Ao Du smiled slightly, "What is coming will eventually come, immediately block all the city gates.

Have the soldiers speed up the demolition of the houses to prepare more logs and rocks. The longer we hold out here, the safer the Khan and his men will be."

"Master, rest assured. All the soldiers in this city have made up their minds to live and die with Ice Dragon City!"

Three days later, Sun Hao led three million Snow Dragon Riders, two Royal Guards and four Wing Guards and arrived outside the Ice Dragon City.

In order to quickly capture Ice Dragon City, Sun Hao used the "Hero Converter" to exchange for a full 500,000 White Horse Volunteers. Then, it took only two days for him to break into Ice Dragon City.

However, it was not until five days after the city was captured that the Han army completely wiped out the remaining Donglu soldiers.

In the end, 600,000 veterans of the Donglu tribe, including Ao Du, the leader of the Zhenghei Banner, all died in the Ice Dragon City.

At this moment, the rest of the Donglu tribe's soldiers, tribesmen, Han slaves and supplies had already crossed the frozen sea and arrived at the continent where the black people lived.

After capturing Ice Dragon City, Sun Hao did not rush to cross the sea to pursue the Donglu tribe.

After all, the Han State has a huge navy. Since it is known that the Donglu tribe has fled to an unknown continent, even if the frozen sea melts, Sun Hao can use the navy's ships to transport troops and land on that unknown continent.

But the Donglu tribe didn't know what Sun Hao was thinking. After learning that the Ice Dragon City did not stop the Han army for long, the Donglu Khan Dagala had no intention of conquering the Eda Empire with a population of over 70 million, and directly led the Donglu tribe to flee to the heart of this continent.

In mid-March of the 237th year of the Han calendar, Sun Hao mobilized more than 3,000 warships and more than 5,000 merchant ships, and transported 3 million Great Snow Dragon Cavalry and four military garrisons to the continent where the black people lived.

The main task of the four military towns is to escort food and fodder for the three million Snow Dragon Cavalry.

The army of the Eda Empire could not tell who were the Han army and who were the Donglu people. In their eyes, these people with yellow skin were all invaders and robbers.

So the army of the Eda Empire took the initiative to attack the Han army.

Sun Hao would never tolerate these black people. He immediately led three million Snow Dragon Riders, as well as two million Mo Dao soldiers and two million white robe soldiers newly exchanged using the "Hero Converter", and swept across the entire Eda Empire like autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves.

Then the Han army almost followed the footsteps of the Donglu tribe, and over the next year or so, they destroyed fourteen other black countries along the way.

On another battlefield, the Han army had completely captured the imperial capital province of the Apulian Empire by the end of April in the 238th year of the Han calendar. At this time, only the northwestern province of the Apulian Empire had not been captured by the Han army.

The western and southwestern provinces of the Apulian Empire had been occupied by the Han army before the fall of the imperial capital province.

Abramo, the emperor of the Apulian Empire, led the remaining troops of the Apulian Empire and retreated into the wilderness of the northwestern province.

The Northwest Province was established after the Apulian Empire conquered the barbarians in the wilderness and formed the entire wilderness. It can be said to be the poorest province among the seven provinces of the original Apulian Empire.

Duke Vasenka, who had been promoted to Prime Minister, said to Emperor Abramo with a dejected look on his face: "Your Majesty, although we still have more than five million troops, we will soon face a problem of food shortage.

The Northwestern Province is too barren. Even if all the food from the barbarian tribes were gathered together, it would not be enough to feed an army of over five million."

Emperor Abramo, looking extremely haggard, said bitterly, “What else can we do?

The Imperial Province has been lost, as have the Western Province and the Southwestern Province. Now, where else can we escape to except the wilderness of the Northwestern Province?"

Prime Minister Duke Vasenka hesitated for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, now our Apulian Empire, to use the words of the Han people, has reached the end of its rope.

Is it possible to consider seeking peace with the Han Kingdom?"

"Ask for peace?"

Emperor Abramo's expression became even more bitter. "It's not that I haven't considered seeking peace, but the Han Kingdom's conditions are simply too harsh. They're actually trying to completely incorporate my Apulian Empire into the Han Kingdom."

Prime Minister Duke Vasenka advised: "Your Majesty, under the current circumstances, even if we do not agree to the conditions proposed by the Han Kingdom, I am afraid that the Apulian Empire will not be able to hold on for long.

Your Majesty, please do not forget how we made the barbarians surrender. As long as the Han army guards a few entrances to the wilderness, we can starve to death our remaining 5 million troops and more than 34 million barbarians.

The output of the wasteland is not enough to feed 40 million people."

Emperor Abramo was silent for a long time before he said sadly, "Let me think about it again!"

Hearing that Emperor Abramo finally gave in, Prime Minister Duke Vasenka couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. If possible, Prime Minister Duke Vasenka would not be willing to surrender to the Han Kingdom, but now the Apulian Empire has no other choice but to surrender.

As soon as Prime Minister Prince Vasenka left Emperor Abramo's tent, a general came over and whispered, "Prime Minister, thousands more deserted last night, including two captains."
