"It seems the messengers have delivered our message...," Prime Minister Ying Ke said with a sigh of relief upon hearing the news that the Tang Army's bombardment had ceased.
He was truly grateful that he had sent out the messengers in advance, thus sparing Wuyang City from a major calamity. The city was already in chaos, and if the Tang Army's shelling continued, he would soon lose effective control over the entire city.
It was unimaginable: countless rebels would roam through the city like wolves and pigs, causing more destruction than the artillery shells, turning the entire city into an inferno.
"It seems so, sir," said the officer beside him, also breathing a sigh of relief. They were indeed at a loss for what to do, and if the Tang Army attacked, nobody knew what actions to take.
