Chapter 281- The War Is Over

Just as Zhuo Kuo led his troops to attack Ying Bao's camp, Baiqi similarly dispatched his troops to attack Gu Pass.
Two hundred thousand troops surrounded the south side of Gu Pass.
With the help of the sets of three-bow arcuballistas that Ouyang Shuo and Mulan Yue brought, numerous step arrows were shot into the walls. This allowed the Qin soldiers to climb up and attack like a flood.
Zhao Zhuang's forces tried their best to retaliate, as numerous rolling wood and giant rocks pelted down from above the wall, crushing wave after wave of soldiers. The fire defense line formed by the alchemical fire oil cabinets burned the enemy. When their bodies fell to the ground, they instantly fell apart.
Apart from that, the Zhao army used their height advantage to rain down arrows.
The Qin army was also fearless. They used the corpses to fill up the moat and ate away at the defensive resources that the Zhao had. Under the city wall, the bodies of the Qin soldiers piled up to 2 meters high.
The soldiers stepped on the bodies and continued to climb upward.
The attack of the vanguard team became the last straw that crushed the Zhao Zhuang forces.
Gu Pass had finally fallen. The remaining soldiers inside had no other place to go. Hence, they raised their hands and surrendered.
The fall of Gu Pass meant that the Battle of Changping had entered its final stages.
Upon learning that Gu Pass was lost, the Zhao army, which was attacking the Ying Bao camp, no longer had the motivation to attack. Looks of despair filled their faces.
After a little struggle, shortly after Zhao Zhuang surrendered, Zhao Kuo surrendered too.
Based on Zhao Kuo's personality, he would rather die than surrender; furthermore, based on what Di Chen and the rest said, the Qin army would kill off troops that surrendered and wouldn't let them survive.
Only, history had already changed. Zhao Kuo would follow Chun Shenjun to step onto another journey and into another world to continue his fight against Baiqi.
At this point, the war was officially over. The Zhao camp had no way to fight back, and the battle notification sounded.
Maybe Gaia couldn't bear to see 200 thousand Zhao soldiers being slaughtered, thus ending the battle when they surrendered.
"Battle report: the Battle of Changping is officially over. Now based on player's contribution and their use in the battle, calculating bonus battle contribution points."
In this battle, Ouyang Shuo wasn't the only shining light. Di Chen, Zhan Lang, and Chun Shenjun had all affected the proceedings and played a huge role. As such they all gained high amounts of points.
A system notification resounded by Ouyang Shuo's ear.
"System Notification: Player Qiyue Wuyi, player representative of Qin Country, the Shanhai City cavalry that he led had huge contributions, and he thought of the method to break the chariot circle formation. Awarded bonus 20 thousand battle contribution points."
Compared to the two battles before, Gaia's evaluation of his performance had largely dipped and even his points was at its lowest yet.
Even so, based on the killings of the 10 thousand cavalry, his battle contribution points were still at the top of the leaderboard.
