Since the system became my girlfriend

Chapter 195 Looking for Evidence

At the start of the battle, casualties in Xuanwu City rose almost instantaneously. Before anyone even entered Tarrenburg, hundreds of soldiers had already been shot dead.

However, after soldiers entered Tarrenburg, Tarrenburg's soldiers also began to suffer casualties. At this time, the casualty rate on the Xuanwu City side was higher, after all, they were the attacking side and were naturally at a disadvantage.

As time went on, more and more soldiers from Xuanwu City entered Tarrenburg, and then the casualties of the soldiers on Tarrenburg's side began to soar. Although they all belonged to the kingdom's army, the soldiers from Xuanwu City, trained by Lord Daryl, were far more powerful than the second-line troops on Tarrenburg's side.

So, just half an hour later, the soldiers of Xuanwu City had already captured the city tower and opened the city gate. A large number of Xuanwu City soldiers swarmed in and instantly surrounded the main fortress inside.

"Kova, I advise you to surrender!" Lord Daryl shouted into the main castle.

"Dallier, are you crazy? You actually killed so many of my men. Are you really going to rebel?" Kova was also dumbfounded. He didn't expect that Darlier would actually dare to order an attack on the city. Now, not only have the soldiers of Tarrenburg suffered heavy losses, but Darlier, as the attacking side, has also lost a lot of soldiers.

"That's right, I'm insane! If you don't surrender, don't blame me for not sparing your family either!" Lord Daryl threatened.

"You..." General Kova was dumbfounded. He never expected that the Lord of Daril would actually dare to rebel.

"And you too! Although you are Kova's men and must obey his orders, if you do not surrender now, when the castle is breached, I guarantee that not one of you will be spared, including your families! This is my final ultimatum to you!" Lord Daryl roared.

"My lord...why don't we surrender?" Several officers pleaded with General Kova after hearing the threat from Lord Daril.

"You...you dare call yourselves soldiers?!" Kova was so angry that he couldn't speak when he saw the officers kneeling in front of him.

"Sir, as soldiers, we would have no regrets even if we died on the battlefield, but we have families, and they are in Tarrenburg..." These soldiers also shed tears of pain. How could they not feel humiliated? But for the sake of their families, they could not care about their personal honor or disgrace.

"No! We will never surrender!" Although Kova's family was also in Tarrenburg, he still refused to surrender.

"General...I'm sorry..." Just then, a sharp knife was placed against Kova's neck.

“General, I’m sorry, I will commit suicide to atone for my sins after this matter is resolved, but please order a surrender. My parents, wife and children are in Tarrenburg, and my son is only two years old. I don’t want him to die like this!” said the officer who kidnapped General Kova.

"General! We beg you!" The officers kneeling before General Kova pleaded. Just as they said, they could die on the battlefield, it was their destiny, but their families were not soldiers, and they could not be buried with them!

At this moment, everyone present understood that the main fortress was definitely not going to hold. Xuanwu City had too many soldiers, and these soldiers were all elites with extremely strong combat power. With the limited forces that Tarunburg had, it was impossible for them to stop them.

Once the main castle is breached, according to Lord Daryl, he will slaughter everyone inside the city, leaving no one unafraid.

Although General Kova was willing to die in battle, his men certainly wouldn't allow it!

"Please, General, save us!" the officers pleaded.

Unlike ordinary soldiers, who enlist alone and move around with their units, officers are different; they usually bring their families with them, so they are the ones most threatened now.

"Oh well! Do as you please..." General Kova waved his hand helplessly. He himself had been taken hostage, so he had no right to negotiate. He could only do whatever they said.

"Thank you for your help, General!" The officers then stood up and helped General Kova complete the drafting of the surrender document.

Soon, the surrender document was delivered to Su Rui, and at the same time, the soldiers of Tarrenburg opened the city gates, then walked down the city wall in an orderly manner and became Su Rui's prisoners.

After being captured, these soldiers were imprisoned. They were still useful to Lord Daryl, who needed them to uncover the truth behind the conspiracy.

As the soldiers walked out, the officers and General Kova, who had been detained, came up behind them.

"Put them in separate rooms!" Daryl waved his hand, and his soldiers took General Kova and his officers away.

"Lord Daryl, you must keep your word and not make things difficult for my parents, wife, and children!"

"Yes! Lord Daryl, we promise to tell you everything you want to know, we just beg you to spare them..."

……

As these men were being dragged away, only General Kova remained fearless; the others were all begging for mercy.

"Search them!" After these people were taken away, Lord Daryl waved his hand, and a large number of soldiers rushed into the main castle. They searched everywhere, hoping to find evidence of collusion between General Kova and the Moraka Brotherhood.

The search lasted for nearly half a day, but in the end, Lord Daryl could not find any clues.

“Dalil, I don’t know what you’re looking for, but it looks like you’re going to be disappointed. I, the general, am fair and honest. I have never embezzled or accepted bribes, not even a needle or thread. You can kill me if you want, but it’s impossible to find any stain on my record!” Before surrendering, General Kova had already guessed Lord Daril’s purpose, so he had made preparations and hidden all the evidence. Finding it wouldn’t be so easy!

"Brother, where do you think he'll hide the evidence?" Lord Daryl turned to Su Rui and asked. They hadn't found any evidence in the past half day, which made Lord Daryl a little panicked. If she couldn't find any evidence of General Kova colluding with the Brotherhood, then Lord Daryl would be in trouble.

"I'll go take a look!" Su Rui dismounted and stepped into the main castle. Taking advantage of being a player, Su Rui began to look for things that were glowing in his field of vision. These were usually quest items or key figures.

After searching high and low, Su Rui finally discovered something extraordinary under General Kova's bed—a secret door to the tunnel!

"Haha! Found it!" Su Rui shouted!
