After the grand army of Lan Tu completely departed.
City Lord Li Ren glanced at the desolate battlefield and then at the exhausted and shocked remnants atop the city gate.
The twenty thousand surviving soldiers paused for quite a while before realizing they were saved, Helan Pass was saved, and Rouran City was saved.
"Long live... Long live..."
"Long live City Lord Li Ren!"
The twenty thousand soldiers atop the city gate, having survived the calamity, cheered desperately.
City Lord Li Ren nodded slightly, then turned and left. Even now, she had no intention of addressing the soldiers publicly.
After returning to her tent, she rested her eyes for a moment.
Four hours later, the ten thousand troops gathered from behind took up positions at Helan Pass.
This ten thousand-strong force was the second-line militia drawn from various senior samurai domains.
