Looking at the Luo Ze soldiers who surrendered on the city wall, Yang Yu marked the map with his pen and climbed onto Lotcar's back.
This is a battlefield constrained by giant dragon rules.
No matter how many enemy troops there are or how many of our own, surrender means surrender. If anyone dares to feign surrender, they must pay the price for their actions.
The existence of giant dragon rules to some extent indeed curbs the brutality and baseness of war.
Without the presence of giant dragon rules, the number of soldiers dying on both sides would be countless.
Yang Yu simply couldn't imagine what the battlefield would turn into when the old demons lurking in the dark came out.
Unfortunately, the nature of war has not changed due to the addition of rules.
When interests are involved, expecting the two countries to fight fairly and accept the outcome is virtually impossible.
The Luo Ze Empire has been extremely skilled at exploiting loopholes since long ago, and Yang Yu, on the side of the Wansheng Country, naturally wants to retaliate properly.
Since the other side doesn't follow the rules of warfare, I don't need to pretend to be a gentleman.
Yang Yu asked Bai Jin to inform Ajiket, letting the staff come and take away the surrendering Luo Ze Empire soldiers, and Yang Yu pointed to the next destination on the map for Lotcar.
Then, they set off quickly for the next city.
Yang Yu knows what kind of power he holds in his hand, and he uses the Memory Crystal to let the Luo Ze Empire people know what kind of power they hold.
When one side has a strong power and the other doesn't have equivalent power, one side easily forms a deterrent to the other.
The larger the power gap, the greater the deterrence.
Choosing Benliang City and showcasing only a few people is enough to display the power difference.
A few people can destroy a city with just a gesture, and there's no more straightforward comparison of power.
Now, wherever Yang Yu goes, the Luo Ze Empire surrenders there.
It shouldn't take long for the Luo Ze Empire to be driven out of the Selovomen Plain, and both sides will enter the negotiation stage.
Yang Yu was also surprised that after hearing about Benliang City, the Luo Ze Empire didn't immediately propose to the giant dragons to modify the rules.
It's known that giant dragons don't want mass destruction and would certainly respond promptly. With giant dragons as an intermediary, the Wansheng Country would also give the Luo Ze Empire some face.
So far, there's no news, indicating that the Luo Ze Empire still doesn't want to reach the stage of passive negotiation.

Generally speaking, the party that initiates negotiations first is passive at the negotiating table, and the Luo Ze Empire doesn't want to admit defeat .
They may have gambler's psychology at work, or perhaps they are truly considering something.
The more Yang Yu understands the complexity of this world, the more he dares not underestimate it.
Though most people in the world are foolish, those who can rise to high positions based on their skills are definitely not simple.
After traveling for a while, a tall city appeared in Yang Yu's sight, the next target.
Lotcar slowed down, Bai Jin cast surveillance magic into the sky to estimate the number of enemy troops in the city.
A moment later, Bai Jin reached a conclusion:
"The number of soldiers stationed in that city is very small, likely only a few remaining to try to hold back the upcoming army."
"Very well, there's no value in attacking, let's go to the next city."
After hearing Bai Jin, Yang Yu immediately issued new instructions, marked a cross on the map over the area where the city was located, and decided on the next city to head to.
However, before Yang Yu could issue the next command to Lotcar, a dull explosion sounded from behind Lotcar.
An icy blue light shot into the sky, countless ice shards flew everywhere, and a cold wind swept fiercely over, as if trying to freeze Yang Yu and his companions.
As the blue light continued to disperse, a golden array suddenly appeared above Yang Yu and his companions, rays of dazzling light transformed into sharp spears, striking towards Yang Yu.
This skill is [Holy Judgment], an advanced version of [Judgement Light Array], combining slowing effect and damage.
Withstanding the pressure on its body, Lotcar suddenly accelerated, escaping the range of the Light Spears' pouring.
Seeing the blue light, Yang Yu knew the Luo Ze Empire repeated their trick, digging a trap in advance and waiting for them to arrive at the pit.
Having dodged [Holy Judgment], a complex array appeared above Lotcar.
This skill, Yang Yu has seen before; it's [Holy Light Restriction].
Yang Yu called out to Iyas, and Iyas quickly mobilized the Holy Light within her.
As the restrictive Holy Light descended, Iyas released a gentler Holy Light from her hands, transforming into starlight that freed Yang Yu and his companions from the restriction.
"Lotcar, don't stop. This is a trap, accelerate to shake them off."
With the blue light beam shooting into the sky, the elite Luo Ze Empire soldiers emerged from the ground, without saying a word they swung their weapons towards Yang Yu and his companions.
Ten, twenty, thirty... ninety, the number of arriving Luo Ze elites far exceeded expectations.
According to the rules, if you want to stir things up behind the army, gathering so many elites is against the rules, but if these Luo Ze troops are meant to defend the city, they fully comply with the rules.
It shows that even when retreating, the Luo Ze Empire is constantly thinking about how to exploit loopholes in the rules.
So many Luo Ze elites, Yang Yu and his companions have no chance to handle them.
Moreover, Yang Yu also saw several extremely familiar figures.
"Don't expect to escape."
A black-haired girl darted out from the crowd, having several Acceleration Skills cast by nearby priests, and her figure suddenly disappeared while chasing Yang Yu.
[Broken Wind Style. Wind-stepping] granted Aslit extraordinary acceleration, but unfortunately, this skill allows only linear movement after being used.
Following Yang Yu's command, Lotcar made a 90-degree turn, accelerating along the frozen moat.
Iyas stood up from Lotcar but her target was not Aslit pursuing them from behind; instead, a feather-like arrow flew through the air and landed firmly in front of Lotcar.
Using the boost from [Heavenly Feather], Lotcar's speed further increased.
Just as they were about to shake off Aslit, in front of Yang Yu and his companions, a vast barrier rapidly formed with visible speed.
The elite Luo Ze Empire mages emerging from the ground held hands, using potent magic power to weave an unbreakable barrier.
Bai Jin attempted to use magic to shatter the barrier, but it remained unmoved, woven by the Luo Ze mages.
Even though these mages individually have much less Intelligence than Bai Jin, they enhanced their magic by several times using the Fairy's Magic Stone as a supporting tool.
That's right, it's the [Fairy's Magic Stone].
In order to completely eliminate Yang Yu here, the Luo Ze Empire did not hesitate to use some extremely precious tools.
Even without approaching the barrier, Yang Yu could sense the wall-like texture of the Magic Barrier.
