Chapter 844
The gates of Haojia City swung open, and Qian Tongyu led all the civilian and military officials, along with their families, to kneel in welcome as Cheng Dalei entered the city.
Qian Tongyu's heart pounded like a drum; although terms had already been negotiated, Cheng Dalei's character truly inspired distrust. What right did a defeated general have to negotiate terms? If he hadn't been driven into a corner, Qian Tongyu really wouldn't have wanted to open the gates and surrender.
After all, there was no other choice, and he didn't know how Cheng Dalei would deal with him.
Cheng Dalei rode his Black Steed into the city. Qian Tongyu and the others bowed their heads, kneeling on the ground, worried not just for their own safety, but also feeling a sense of humiliation.
Having lost the battle, they had no right to hold their heads high and stick out their chests.
