Al Ain's soldiers halted the siege, but did not withdraw. Pen~Fun~Pavilion www.biquge.info Their army was waiting outside the city, and the smell of gunpowder in the air did not dissipate.

Capper's soldiers retreated into the city, awaiting the general's next instructions.

Although Princess Rusi used her special status to stop the fighting between the two armies, it was not so easy to get Aine to obediently collect the troops and go back. The consumption of more than 100,000 troops on a single expedition is huge, and it has caused a lot of casualties in the battle just now, so it is impossible to count it in vain.

And even if they were to go back like that, it wouldn't be of much use. I'm going to leave here soon, so what if Ain's army comes back?

Isn't a tragedy a tragedy that you don't see?

The princess thinks of a solution to this problem. If you want Ain to retire from the army, you must give them enough compensation...... What can Capper give them?

Compensate...... She thought about it quickly. Isn't your "right to protection" the best compensation?

"City Lord, Ain has asked to negotiate with us. A grizzled herald ran into the basement, "Say I'm going to let you go in person!"

Princess Dream's idea was the same as Dream's original plan. Now it's time for implementation!

The venue for negotiations was set up on the battlefield outside the city. The governors of both sides sat at a makeshift negotiating table outside the city. Not far from them, there were many corpses that still had their temperatures.

The city lord also knew that just letting the opposing side retreat only relieved the urgent need, and could not fundamentally solve the problem. It was necessary to find a way to sign an armistice with the other side, so that the emperor would have enough time to deploy his troops.

In a land full of intrigues, an armistice is one of the few provisions that everyone will abide by. If the armistice is torn up, it means that the country will lose its basic credibility, and it will bring considerable obstacles to its diplomacy, and basically the disadvantages far outweigh the advantages.

However, signing an armistice was not so easy. The city lord does not have many resources in his hands, and it is difficult to meet the other party's requirements.

Dream projected the negotiation venue into the basement and Princess Quisi out of the city. In this case, Princess Sisi is equivalent to being present at the scene.

The request made by the commander of Aine was exactly what the city lord thought of but was unwilling to agree to - to hand over the protection of Princess Iron.

Gaining the favor of the Floating Continent is far more important in his eyes than this one city. If the Floating Continent is willing to protect Capper, no matter how bold it is for other countries to attack. The city lord believes that even if he gives his life and this city, he will let Princess Yu Si be sent back to the floating continent by the Capper Empire.

Princess Sisi also saw his thoughts in the reluctant look of the city lord. However, she thought completely differently from the city lord.

If he did not surrender himself, the battle would continue, the soldiers would fall in pieces, and the people of the city would surely suffer when Ain breached the city, and the blood would continue to flow, and the screams and cries would fill the city......

This war was caused by her in the first place, and she no longer wants more people to die. Now as long as we can broker an armistice, and the rest will be talked about later, there will always be a way to ......!

"I am willing to accept Ain's protection. She said firmly.
