After winning Nanyou through psychological tactics, the army moves to the surrendered nation as they prepare for the next move in Kingdom Chapter 808, according to the latest raw scans, spoilers, and leaks.
The chapter titled ‘Flags‘ starts with Tou’s army catching up with the Hi Shin Unit as they enter Nanyou, a city in Han. Lord Ryuu’an immediately greets them and officially claims their surrender.
Previously, Nanyou faced a dilemma as 260,000 soldiers marched towards its gate led by Tou, which forced the city’s general to devise a strategy to save their faces quickly.

Moreover, the team decides to focus its strength on Shintei by providing the remaining soldiers and supplies to the capital, abandoning Nanyou’s citizens while safely transporting the essential people out of the castle.
As chaos rises in the city, the battalion rejoices following their bloodless surrender. Still, a revelation mentions that Tou used old people from their kingdom to increase the number of their troops.
Likewise, Tou provided money to all the people who posed as the army to scare their opponents. In the leaks of Kingdom 808, the general agrees not to abuse the civilians while taking charge of the city before someone from Kanyou claims the throne.
The general orders his army to remain outside the castle and avoid causing trouble in Nanyou!
As they arrive at the castle, two children hold up a Han flag atop the structure’s walls, their parents having been killed in a battle with the Qin army.
In response to such behavior, Ryuu’an offers to receive punishment instead of the children, but Tou responds with his plans to keep the flags as they are in the city.
Instead, Tou orders that all the Hans flags be raised again with the flags of Qin next to them to give the civilians a sense of security despite their surrender.

ياله من جنرال سماوي عظيم تو😔❤️، لا عجب اختياره اوكي كنائبه وهذا ما يميزه من باقي الجنرالات الآخرين، خبرته كقائد عسكري تفوق كل القادة العسكريين بتشين، فحركته هذه يأمن على اهل القلعة اننا اتينا فاتحين لم نأتيها غازين وأملنا بتوحيد الصين لا للسيطرة… pic.twitter.com/Lzjmr2dd9K
The spoilers then move to Shin and Tou’s discussion about their stay at Nanyou for a while instead of attacking Shintei immediately, as the capital holds a large army that could be deadly for Qin’s army.
However, Ryuukoku mentions that the general at Shintei is already on the move, training their army for a gruesome battle. They recruited most people in a rush, and those recruits had no experience in a real army.
In addition, Tou journeys through the city alongside their lord as it’s the only smart option to keep civilian attacks at bay. Ryuukoku also agrees to provide full support, but Goukei interrupts and orders to take down the Han flags.
He claims that under Qin’s law, the people of Nanyou must obey the law, and anyone who disobeys will face execution and expresses his plans to behead Ryuu’an.
Following such remarks, Tou glared at Goukei, clearly showing his disappointment, as the general had different plans, which he would reveal after chapter 808.
