Chapter 85 The Desperate Capital



Then he saw a head stuck in a spear, and Li Qin's army began to shout at them.

"This is the head of Guo Zifeng, the governor of Xuanfu. The Xuanfu army has been defeated by our army and has now surrendered to us."

The reinforcements you hoped for have vanished. You are now isolated and helpless; it's only a matter of time before we break through your defenses. Surrender now!

As the head on the spear drew closer, some officials on the city wall immediately recognized it.
