Of course, there were also some unruly remnants who were willing to put down their weapons but refused to kneel;

for these people, Ye Chuxue's order was to shoot them on the spot.

The continuous sound of gunfire echoed one after another, apparently, there were still many who couldn't see clearly what was happening.

The scene before their eyes was unbearable for those with a slightly fragile heart.

Everyone who had survived until now had endured, they did not collapse, but the will to resist no longer existed.

"Enough!"

Ye Chuxue reached out and issued new orders to the remaining subordinates who could still move:

"Take all these people away and clear a path for our side to travel through!"

After experiencing many things before, the remaining remnants cooperated quite well.

They contributed their own transport vehicles, allowing the knights to load their weapons into the vehicles, watching their own mounts being taken away by the enemy;

The few surviving low-ranking officers even ordered their soldiers not to resist, and even took the lead in collecting the weapons and horses of their subordinates.

They no longer cared about the future, nor did they care whether the knights would return their weapons and horses later;

In the present moment, they just wanted to save their lives first.

Soon, the area was cleared of people.

The battle that took place on the plains largely decided the fate of the kingdom of Achima.

After that, the Flame Strike Knights arrived at the border town and, by showcasing the prisoners, shattered the remaining defenders' psychological defenses.

With the main forces either dead or captured, and only a few hundred men left in the city, the defense was impossible.

Because they knew that continuing the fight would lead to a dead end, the defending army, in a helpless situation, chose to surrender.

As a result, Inran's army occupied the border town, and the members of the knight's group truly set foot on the land of another country at this moment.

It appeared that Inran's war with Achima had just begun, but in reality, it had already ended.

During its peak, Achima had eighty thousand regular troops and could engage in warfare against several smaller countries simultaneously.

After the Battle of Dibiles, the country shifted from prosperity to decline, and the overall quality of the military significantly declined;

In the following period, Achima had to sacrifice a considerable number of soldiers due to invasions from other countries to ensure that its territory would not shrink.

At the beginning of the conflict with Inran, the country's regular troops were reduced to sixty thousand, and the previous wave of troops sent to the plains numbered up to thirty thousand...

Undoubtedly, Achima had now lost half of its military strength, and it was questionable whether they could even maintain control over the remaining territory, let alone reclaim lost lands.

And what caused this outcome was not the main force of the Inran Empire, but merely a knight's group with a strength of ten thousand.

The performance of the army disappointed the nobles within the country and made many vested interests worried;

They might think:

The main Inran army has not even entered the battle, yet the situation has turned out this way. It seems that winning this war is impossible.

Except for a few families closely tied to the royal family, the rest of the nobles were all considering what they needed to do next to protect their own interests.

Current Achima resembled a sinking ship.

The majority of people on this ship did not immediately think about how to save it, but instead racked their brains to find a way to switch to another ship.

In such a situation, the spies dispatched earlier by Inran to Achima became active in the shadows;

For their own interests, the "sailors" could sometimes even sacrifice the "captain".

By the earliest tonight and the latest tomorrow morning, this war could end.

Ye Chuxue was not prepared to think much about the remaining tasks, the first thing she did after entering the city was to find a place where she could bathe.

In the past, for the sake of not causing trouble for the general public, the army would bathe in dedicated bathhouses.

However, the bathhouses they used were relatively simple, and Ye Chuxue had higher requirements in this aspect, so she directly abandoned that place.

There was only one suitable place!

To inspire the border soldiers, members of the royal family were occasionally dispatched by the king to this place to reward the troops, and sometimes their families would accompany them.

To ensure that the royal family's female members had a decent bathing place, the commander of the legion (the one who was shot) specifically built a new bathhouse.

The difference between the two bathing places was as significant as the difference between a regular player and a VIP player.

Ye Chuxue found this place suitable for her needs and happily went in.

She had no intention of enjoying it alone, and allowed her subordinates to enter as well.

At that time, she had no idea what kind of consequences her kind decision would bring.

An hour later...

"Phew, I'm done!"

Although the bath time was not long (according to her standards), it was enough to make Ye Chuxue feel completely relaxed.

She felt as if she had shed five years and returned to the most energetic "girlhood" period.

"It's strange, why hasn't anyone come in until now? These people, who are usually so rude, are acting unusually today."

Ye Chuxue had never thought of such a possibility:

The female members of the knight's group, as they aged and matured, gradually erased their childlike hearts and became qualified adults one by one.

She was certain such a situation could never happen;

She would sooner believe that her own sister would become diligent one day than believe those people would grow emotionally.

When things deviate from the norm, there must be something fishy.

With a cautious mindset, Ye Chuxue wrapped a towel around her damp body and slowly walked towards the changing room.

Once inside, everything became clear to her;

The moment of realization came when she noticed, in the next moment, that her clothes were nowhere to be found!

"Could it be..."

Yes, that "could it be."

A face that she had seen before appeared in front of Ye Chuxue.

The person held her underwear and panties, swaying the soft fabric in a noble manner.

"Big Sis, do you want to take back your clothes?"

Echoing this voice, another figure emerged from the opposite direction, holding the outer clothes.

"Big Sis, as long as you agree to a small request of ours, we promise to return these clothes to you with both hands."

Seeing her "growing up" subordinates, Ye Chuxue felt incredibly "delighted," stamping one foot on the floor immediately.

"Are you itching for trouble, huh?"

If she had had a gun on her, the bathroom would have had a dozen holes by now, and it wasn't easy to predict what those two would turn into.

Perhaps the two subordinates had seized this opportunity, knowing that Big Sis couldn't do anything at the moment, and thus boldly attempted to blackmail her.

"If Big Sis refuses to listen to reason, we (including our companions outside) will have no choice but to give your intimate clothing as a gift to your future brother-in-law."

"Your future brother-in-law is a man at a ripe and vigorous age, and upon receiving your clothes, he might do some strange things."

In terms of knowledge about that aspect, the levels reached by Ye Chuxue and her subordinates were completely different;

So the same sentence might be interpreted differently by them.

In their understanding, the "strange things" referred to materials for doing that kind of stuff and items to wear;

While for Ye Chuxue, the most extreme act someone might do would probably involve smelling the clothes.

Obviously, compared to doing such things, smelling clothes was a trivial matter;

Yet, even this "trivial matter" was unacceptable to Ye Chuxue.

"If you don't want an early demise, do not entertain such dangerous thoughts, otherwise, the consequences will be severe!"

The term "a wolf in sheep's clothing" described her current self.

This pretense of calm could not deceive the two female foxes before her, only exposing the inner tension of the person involved further.

Seeing their plan about to succeed, rather than showing their emotions, the two of them acted even more nonchalantly.

The two subordinates no longer asked for Big Sis' opinion but turned their heads simultaneously, engaging in a conversation:

"Do you think the future brother-in-law will like this kind of gift?"

"He definitely will. According to the standards of our country, he is quite innocent; perhaps he will be moved to tears upon receiving a girl's underwear."

"That makes sense, maybe he will even consider it a family heirloom!"

"Every night when the future brother-in-law is lonely because Big Sis is away, he will take out these clothes, find solace in them, and then release his inner desires..."

As the voices grew louder, Ye Chuxue's ears turned redder; finally, a loud shout rang out:

"That's enough!"

As she shouted these words, Ye Chuxue completely surrendered in her heart, no longer threatening anyone and choosing to yield to the evil force in front of her in the end.

"State your demands, as long as they are not too extreme, Big Sis will do her best to fulfill them."

A great success!

At the moment their conspiracy succeeded, the two subordinates burst into a grating laughter of "hehehe," a smile that gave Ye Chuxue a sense of foreboding.

That evening, Wang Xiaole, who had lazily spent the whole afternoon in bed, went to the dining hall for dinner.

Upon entering, before he could say anything, he was surrounded from multiple directions by female knights who blocked his way.

"Future brother-in-law, tonight you have a date with Big Sis!"

This was not a question but a notification, just like a boss unreasonably demanding employees to work overtime.

When he saw that a somewhat distressed girl was standing next to him, he instantly understood one thing:

At that moment, both he and "Xiao Ye" were victims;

In a place unknown to him, she had suffered a lot of grievances too.

Due to the demons' "persecution," in their hearts, they undoubtedly felt a bit closer to each other.
