Chapter 778 - 779: Persuasion to Surrender (1)_1
A vast expanse of the great North Prairie Ridge, endless in magnitude, was enveloped in an ink-colored hue, blending with the verdant green of the abundant grass. The fragrance of the grass and the whispers of the Qing County air slowly dispersed in the open.
Under the moonlight, a white-coated giant tiger frolicked freely, with a young girl mounted on its back. Pressing her lips together, she gazed out towards the barely visible royal city in the distance. She was nearing the tent of the Khan of the Meng Slaves. Tonight, she was going to accomplish something for the Great Jin, the civilians and the soldiers of Lingbei -- she was going to persuade the Khan to surrender.
Although she didn’t expect Tuoba Kui to surrender immediately, she hoped that, at the very least, she could instill fear and desperation into him tonight as a precursor for future thoughts of surrender. If he was willing to surrender, it would help prevent the demise of the myriad lives in the Great Jin and Lingbei and it would also facilitate the completion of her man’s mission. Therefore, he must surrender.
By this time, the night was advanced and the Royal City of the Meng Slaves was enveloped in silent tranquility. People had succumbed to their dreams of the night, except for a hundred elite Meng Slave soldiers dutifully stationed in front of the royal tent, safeguarding the safety of the Great Khan.
Riding the bouncing white-coated tiger, Cai Wei easily entered the Meng Slaves’ Royal City and in no time was in front of the Khan’s tent.
Her sudden appearance left the soldiers standing guard outside the tent dumbfounded. They didn’t know how to react. The mountain-like white giant tiger and the magnificent and beautiful maiden formed an imposing duo under the moonlight, creating an aesthetic yet eerie sight before them.
"Go, tell your Great Khan that someone wishes to see him," said Cai Wei, as she dismounted from the tiger, loftily addressing the stunned soldiers.
At this moment, one of the soldiers who could understand the Jin language regained his composure and scurried towards the royal tent in a frightened manner.
