Under the influence of the enemy's momentum, the morale of the Alliance Central Army was noticeably wavering. The second-line troops were okay, able to hold their ground, but the prisoner units had already begun to glance around, preparing to run.
They were all Sika people, who already didn't want to fight against their own compatriots. Additionally, they knew how strong the five-thousand-man corps coming toward them were and didn't think they were a match. Perhaps the entire Central Army could withstand this wave of attack, but they, stationed at the front, would likely become sacrifices, killed.
And they absolutely did not want such an outcome. They surrendered because they didn't want to die—didn't want to die then, and still don't want to die now.
