Bai Qingyan's voice was resolute and powerful: "Later, the ancestors of the Bai family understood that only unifying the world can restore peace to the people and the land! Therefore, the Bai family... the Bai family army, along with the soldiers of Zhou, all took the unification of the world as their duty! Now... the reason Zhou must capture Yecheng Pass is to seize Yunjing! Unite the land, ensuring that the people of both nations no longer suffer the ravages of war. It is not to massacre the people!"
Bai Qingyan looked at the Xiliang people quietly gazing up at her and continued: "Whether it's Zhou or Xiliang! We share the same writing, travel the same roads, follow the same laws, adhere to the same principles! We are fundamentally one inseparable family! Now the cities north of Yecheng Pass belong to Zhou, and the people... naturally are also Zhou's citizens! The purpose of the Zhou army is to protect and ensure peace for the people!"
