Dominate Marvel

Respect it and destroy it with your own hands!

On its corpse, build a new world.

Regardless of whether they are bandits or Tatars, they are not qualified to destroy the Ming Dynasty! Ying Yi did his part.

Holding Li Chuang's head, Ying Yi walked faster and faster, and suddenly let out a long roar that shook all directions. In a trance, it was clear that the clouds had cleared and the mist had dispersed, and a golden ray of sunlight tore through the sky and illuminated the earth!

Song Xiance was frightened by Ying Yi's roar and fell to the ground. He looked up at Ying Yi's back and couldn't help but murmured: "The clouds have opened..."

Yes, the clouds are opening.

After nearly ten days of heavy rain, it was a gloomy day, and finally the sky opened.

The bright and scorching sun, overlooking the heaven and earth and all things, shining in all directions, is the parent of all things!

Zhang Shi surrendered the prisoners, walked quickly forward, and worshiped: "My lord."

Ying Yi nodded and saw that the ground in front of him was full of prisoners and said: "These prisoners are all old thieves and their crimes cannot be forgiven. However, since I have promised to disarm and not kill them, I will not kill them. But it is difficult to forgive the death penalty, but it is difficult to forgive the life penalty. You Go and cut off one ear of each of them, mark it, and let them do all the heavy work in the future."

Zhang Shi suddenly knew what was going on, and he beat his chest and said, "Yes, my lord."

Ying Yi handed Li Chuang's head to him: "This is the head of the thief. You can cook it up."

After a pause, he added: "Send someone to Yuzhou again, and ask Sun Xiucai and Zheng Yunzhi to arrange matters in the three counties of Nanyang and come to Kaifeng as soon as possible."

Zhang Shi was startled, cupped his fists and said, "Here."

Then he pointed at the humble Song Xiance beside him: "This man Song Xiance is the one who advises the intruder. He has information about the intruder's treasure. Please inquire clearly and get it as soon as possible. If this person lies, kill him. If it is true, spare his life and put him in a slave labor camp."

Zhang Shi glanced at the trembling Song Xiance, bowed and said, "Yes, my lord."

Then he stayed there for two nights and took Song Xiance into custody.

Ying Yi is not a pedantic person, but he is not an untrustworthy person either. Song Xiance made suggestions for Li Chuang. Song Xiance was responsible for Li Chuang's sins, and he would never be able to atone for his sins even if he died. But he was exempted from the penalty of death, but he had to suffer the penalty of living. The slave labor camp was where he went.

By the time Ying Yi strolled back to the gates of Kaifeng City, the war had been settled.

Li Chuang's 40,000-strong army consisted of more than 38,000 people, except for the more than 1,000 who escaped. Twenty-two thousand people were beheaded and sixteen thousand captured.

Ying Yi summoned Zhu Bingkun, Zheng Wu, Zheng Jiu, and the young general named Li Huan who was the first to respond at the top of the city to him, and had a detailed understanding of the war.

In this battle, heads were captured, with Zhu Bingkun, Zheng Wu, and Zheng Jiu leading the way. Three people and four troops, totaling 10,000 troops, totaled 21,000 levels of fighting. The remaining level 1,000 was the capture of the Kaifeng garrison led by Li Huan.

But among the 16,000 people captured, 12,000 were captured by Li Huan. Only 4,000 people were captured by the other four tribes in total.

Ying Yi had already expected this.

Ying Yi was mentally prepared for the bloodlust of his troops. It is said that during the civil war, Ying Yi was not willing to kill wantonly. But the tens of thousands of thieves are not among them. It can be said that Li Chuang, the last 40,000 thieves, are all evil thieves, and they are beasts who do not want to die. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have become Li Chuang’s main force.

Since he deserves to die, there is no harm in killing him.

Even the 16,000 captives had to go through selection. Thinking about it, there are not many people who can be called kind. Most of it is a one-size-fits-all item.

With such great gains in this battle, his own family also suffered losses.

Ying Yi's original army of 10,000 troops now has 9,300 troops. There were enough places, which meant that there were 700 casualties in this battle. Among them, more than 200 people were killed and more than 400 were lightly or seriously injured.

As for the Kaifeng troops and horses under Li Huan's command, there are currently more than 4,000 troops. As for the amount of damage, we haven't had time to calculate it in detail. After all, Li Huan was not the commander-in-chief of this army before. He was temporarily appointed by Ying Yi. He did not know the specific data of the Kaifeng defenders.

"Zheng Jiu."

Ying Yi said.

Zheng Jiu beat his chest and clasped his fists: "Lord."

Ying Yi said: "You lead your troops to guard and select prisoners outside the city."

Zheng Jiu took the order: "Here."

Then Ying Yi said: "Li Huan opens the way ahead, Zhu Bingkun and Zheng Wu, follow me into the city."

"Here!"

The army was prepared and came outside the city gate. The city gate had been closed for a long time. At this time, seeing the army arriving at the city, it took a long time to slowly open the city gate.

Then I saw a group of officials leaving the city. The first person was Gao Mingheng.

Seeing Gao Mingheng, Li Huan's troops stopped and heard Gao Mingheng say: "I am the governor of Henan, where is General Ying?"

Li Huan frowned, feeling embarrassed for a moment.

"Separate the two sides and make way for the passage!"

An order was sent from the rear, and Li Huan's troops hurriedly moved out of the way. They saw Ying Yi coming on horseback, with Zhu Bingkun and Zheng Wu crowding on both sides.

Seeing Ying Yi approaching but not dismounting, Gao Mingheng felt a thump in his heart, but said forcefully: "What is General Ying doing?"

Ying Yi smiled and said, "Is it Governor Gao?"

"That's what I am." Gao Mingheng said, twisting his beard.

Ying Yi said: "In that case, please give way to the governor."

Gao Mingheng's expression trembled and he said, "It would disturb the people. It would be better for General Ying not to send troops into the city."

Ying Yi waved his hand: "Take it."

Ying Yi didn't say much to him at all. He waved his hand and soldiers like wolves and tigers swarmed up and captured Gao Mingheng and other Kaifeng officials without any explanation.

Gao Mingheng was shocked and shouted: "Ying Yi, are you planning to rebel?!"

Ying Yi made no secret of it: "Would you rather be a prince, general or minister? The Ming Dynasty is at the end of its road, and the descendants of Hongwu no longer have anyone to lead the Xia. Why can't I be the leader?"

His voice is as loud as a bell, and he is not afraid of his remarks being leaked out.

Gao Mingheng's face was ashen: "Rebellious ministers and traitors, traitorous ministers and traitors!" He stared at Li Huan's troops with his eyes wide open: "Why don't you and I quickly capture this thief!"

Li Huan and others remained silent.

Ying Yi smiled and said: "I am not a bandit. I will not kill or plunder. I am willing to shoulder the responsibility of the Xia and inherit the ancestors."

He shouted loudly: "All the soldiers will follow me into the city to suppress public security and control key points. Don't disturb the people, otherwise they will be killed without mercy!"

"Here!"

The three armies shouted in unison, shaking the world.

Ying Yi said again: "Li Huan, hurry into the city and protect King Zhou."

Li Huan bowed: "Here!"

Gao Mingheng and others' faces were ashen and lifeless.

Ying Yi waved his hand and ordered Gao Mingheng and other Kaifeng officials to be escorted down. Then he rode into the city and commanded the soldiers to control the key points without causing any harm to the people.

By nightfall, all of Kaifeng was under Ying Yi's control. Only then did Ying Yi begin to sort out post-war matters.

First, 700 people were selected from the more than 4,000 troops in Kaifeng, and the four divisions were supplemented by 10,000 troops. Then he selected 2,500 people from the remaining three to four thousand people, established another branch, with Li Huan as the general, and ordered Li Huan to patrol the inner city of Kaifeng and control the security by military.

The remaining more than a thousand people were ordered to leave the city and clean up the battlefield with Zheng Jiu's troops. Zheng Wu and Zhu Bingkun led their troops to garrison the city wall to guard against accidents.

As a result, the number of soldiers and horses under Ying Yi's command increased to seven, including the whole night. There are seven troops and six generals, namely Zhu Bingkun, Zheng Wu, Zheng Jiu, Qian Yue, Li Huan, and Zhang Shi. There was only one remaining unit, which was supposed to be Ying Yi's personal guard, but Ying Yi was used to riding alone, so this unit of troops was usually temporarily replaced by Zhu Bingkun.

However, at this time, Ying Yi had captured Kaifeng, the bandits were eliminated, and the whole of Henan was under his nose. Naturally, he could no longer go alone as usual.

Zhu Bingkun suggested, so this troop finally performed their duties.

Ying Yi then selected a man named Wang Yisheng from among the troops and appointed him as a general. Wang Yisheng is the one with the highest military merit and the strongest physique among the soldiers and horses. As a general, no one refuses to accept him.

After entering the city, Ying Yi temporarily stayed at the governor's Yamen to handle important matters. The personal guards patrolled, protected and conveyed information.
