Chapter 380: 378

Yang Yong escaped, and to say I wasn't disappointed would be a lie, but Yang Yong is a person in an awkward position.

The fact that Xiyue Country had to eventually lay down their arms and surrender, was in part, because he failed to handle matters competently.

Carrying such a stigma, he wouldn't receive a warm welcome even upon returning to Xiyue Country.

After suffering two major defeats in wars, Xiyue Country simply could not afford any more. What they needed now was a period of peace and recuperation.

However, for people living in a barren land, peace and recuperation were luxuries they couldn't afford.

In any case, for the next few years, Xiyue Country posed no threat.

As for the signing of unequal treaties such as surrender letters and the payment of indemnities, the presence of General Li was enough to handle this.

Tomorrow, Xiao'er and Shangguan Xuanyi plan to set off back to the Imperial Capital.
