He took a deep breath, suppressing the sorrow in his heart, and walked up to the Jiuli Tribe, saying in a deep voice, "Your leader has passed away; there is no need for further resistance. I, Emperor Huang, govern the world with benevolence and promise to treat you well. Together with my people, we will build a home."
Emperor Huang's voice was loud and powerful, echoing across the battlefield. Upon hearing this, the soldiers of the Jiuli Tribe raised their heads, looking at this merciful victor, a glimmer of hope igniting in their eyes.
This protracted war had finally come to an end.
====================
Emperor Huang's low voice reverberated across the vast battlefield as the soldiers of the Jiuli Tribe looked up in confusion at this merciful victor, their eyes filled with uncertainty and fear for the future. Noticing the unease in their eyes, Emperor Huang slowly walked over to Chiyou's corpse, silently gazing at his former opponent.
"Give Chiyou a proper burial," he instructed softly after a moment, his tone carrying a hint of barely perceptible sorrow and respect. He hoped that through this act, he could comfort Chiyou's spirit and demonstrate his goodwill to the Jiuli Tribe.
Several soldiers from the Xuanyuan Tribe immediately stepped forward upon hearing the order, preparing to carry away Chiyou's body. Just then, a roar erupted from the crowd: "No! Chiyou is the root of all evil; he must not be allowed peace in death!"
A burly leader of the Xuanyuan Tribe burst out from the crowd, his face contorted with anger and his eyes ablaze with hatred. This man was named Limu, a fierce general under Emperor Huang's command, known for his bravery in battle but also for his volatile temperament and deep-seated hatred for Chiyou.
"Limu! Do not be disrespectful!" Emperor Huang scolded sternly, frowning slightly.
"But my lord, Chiyou has committed heinous crimes and caused the deaths of so many of our kin. How can we easily forgive him?" Limu retorted defiantly, his neck stiffened. The generals behind him nodded in agreement, believing they should completely eradicate the Jiuli Tribe to prevent future troubles.
Emperor Huang looked at the agitated Limu and then at the fearful soldiers of the Jiuli Tribe around them, sighing inwardly. He understood that while Chiyou's death had ended this war, the real challenge was just beginning. How to handle post-war affairs, how to resolve hatred, and achieve true peace and unity were the difficult issues he would have to face next.
Emperor Huang was silent for a moment, then turned to face Limu and said firmly, "Limu, I understand your feelings, but when will the cycle of revenge end? Chiyou is dead; we should let go of our hatred and look to the future. I have made up my mind to give Chiyou a proper burial and treat his people well, allowing them to become part of us as we build our home together."
Limu wanted to say more, but seeing Emperor Huang's resolute gaze, he had no choice but to suppress his anger and lower his head reluctantly. The other generals, seeing Limu acquiesce, dared not voice any further opposition.
Seeing this, Emperor Huang nodded in satisfaction and then turned to the soldiers of the Jiuli Tribe, proclaiming loudly, "In the name of Emperor Huang, I promise that as long as you lay down your weapons and obey my leadership, I will guarantee your safety and interests. Together, we will create a better future."
The soldiers of the Jiuli Tribe exchanged glances upon hearing Emperor Huang's promise, their eyes shining with hope. They were all loyal supporters of Chiyou, and now that their leader was gone, they had lost the will to continue fighting. Emperor Huang's promise undoubtedly pointed them toward a path of survival.
"We are willing to submit!" An elderly elder of the Jiuli Tribe was the first to kneel on the ground before Emperor Huang in submission. He was Uncle Li, Chiyou's uncle, and held great prestige within the tribe. His submission inspired the other Jiuli Tribe soldiers to lay down their weapons and kneel before Emperor Huang to express their allegiance.
Watching this scene unfold before him, Emperor Huang felt a mix of emotions. He knew this was just the beginning; the road ahead would be long. However, he believed that as long as he held onto his convictions, he could overcome all difficulties and ultimately achieve the desire for peace and unity.
Emperor Huang stepped forward, bent down, and personally helped Uncle Li up, speaking sincerely, "Elder, please rise. I believe we will become friends and create a beautiful future together."
Uncle Li looked up into Emperor Huang's sincere eyes, and all his remaining doubts vanished. He nodded gratefully, tears streaming down his face.
Emperor Huang raised his head and surveyed the war-torn land around him, filled with hope and anticipation. He knew that a new era was about to dawn.
