Emperor Ming Dynasty

Chapter 294 Extraordinary Victory
The snowflakes are still there, and the huge city of Xi'an still stands on the fertile Guanzhong Plain.

However, Xi'an at this time is quite different than before.

Under the city of Xi'an, countless soldiers knelt down and begged for mercy, chariots and horses were overturned, flags were broken, countless weapons were randomly discarded on the ground, and there was almost chaos.

"Surrender without killing, surrender without killing—"

Words filled with Shaanxi dialect continued to resound on the battlefield, and more and more troops surrendered, like a colony of ants.

Zhu Yixi rode a horse and strolled on the battlefield.

At first glance, it looked like a large body of corpses, many of which had been mixed and entangled, almost inseparable.

Although the battle is over, the cleaning of the battlefield is still going on.

Since it was only after the war, the entire battlefield was filled with a tragic atmosphere.

Almost every soldier seemed to have been reborn, with bursts of unique murderous aura, especially the firearms battalion, with their heads held high and their faces full of excitement.

"Your Highness—" And many people who were obviously officers continued to patrol, their bodies were covered with blood, and when they saw King Yu, they shouted loudly, full of confidence.

Many wars have been fought, and no matter how tragic it is, Zhu Yixi's heart cannot be shaken, but this big battle is, after all, the biggest war he has ever experienced.

The combined scale of both sides exceeds 200,000, fighting from morning to afternoon, close to dusk.

The Chinese army was defeated, and the Chuang army almost formed a chain reaction, especially when the city of Xi'an suddenly changed hands. Thinking of being pinched from front to back, the left and right wings of the Chuang army panicked and were defeated continuously.

At this time, no one can organize a counterattack anymore, only to run for their lives, running for their lives desperately.

Li Zicheng, who was coerced, no longer returned to his Chang'an, but went westward without a goal.

This is not a bet!
Zhu Yixi couldn't help shaking his head and laughing: "The thief is still the nature of a rogue, and a dog can't change eating shit."

Bai Guangen at the side, full of entanglements, accompanied King Yu, not knowing what to say.

Zuo Guangxian, who was on the side, kept hitting him with his elbows, full of desire to survive.

"Your Highness is wise and martial, and uses soldiers like a god. Of course, burglars are not your opponents!"

Bai Guangen's mouth trembled for a while, and he was so stiff that he flattered him.

Zhu Yixi turned his head and looked at Bai Guangen and others who were following him. He couldn't help thinking of the scene when he first entered the Qin army.

At that time, the difference between the two was cloud and mud, and now, it is also the difference between cloud and mud.

Fate is such a fantasy.

"Don't worry."

Zhu Yixi glanced at the nervous crowd, and softly comforted:

"Since Governor Sun was defeated, the main force of the Qin army has been wiped out. Under such circumstances, it is understandable to surrender to the trespassers."

"Furthermore, on today's battlefield, you were the first to counterattack and deal a fatal blow to the intruder.

Hearing this, several people behind him breathed a sigh of relief.

"but--"

Everyone fell into a tense atmosphere again.

"Your soldiers and horses cannot continue."

King Yu said lightly: "Change is the basis of victory. To be honest, those old, weak, sick and disabled no longer meet the standards of the Ming army. It is necessary to abolish and incorporate them."

"How dare you disobey a humble position?"

This time, they were relieved.

Conditional surrender is the most sincere.

In this way, after wandering around for a while, it was already dark, King Yu went directly to the city, and returned to the city of Xi'an that he had always dreamed of.

In this war, the frontal battlefield played a major role, but the decisive factor was the change of ownership of Xi'an City.

The changes made by Bai Guangen and others did not have a single point of effect.

You know, since the 16th year of Chongzhen, Li Zicheng has been in Xi'an for two years now.

Not only a large number of military generals and dignitaries took root in Xi'an, but many ordinary soldiers also started families and businesses in Xi'an.

From top to bottom, Chuangjun gradually moved towards the feudal court.

Home, something that was easily abandoned in the past, was shattered after being owned again, which dealt a great blow to Chuangjun.

Of course, at a critical moment, Li Zicheng made a reckless move, abandoning the city of Xi'an and withdrawing his troops westward.

It directly contributed to the collapse of more than [-] intruders.

And you must know that even the fighting of the Firearms Battalion is only a casualty of 20,000 people.

"Your Highness—"

Facing everyone's envious eyes, Zhu Meng bent down and cupped his hands neither humble nor overbearing, and said respectfully: "The last general will fulfill his mission."

"Okay, okay!"

King Yu patted his shoulder fiercely, his joy was beyond words, and he said loudly:

"You have made extraordinary achievements, and the widow will reward you a lot."

Noticing the eyes of everyone, he smiled and said:

"In this battle, there are rewards, and the merits can be eight points—"

"Long live—" the generals didn't have time to react, and the soldiers at the gate of the city immediately shouted loudly, their faces flushed with excitement.

There were not many soldiers and horses entering the city, only ten thousand people in the barracks, and the rest were counted in the barracks and on the battlefield.

King Yu did not enter the palace of King Qin.

Even though Chen Dong hinted that Li Zicheng's empresses, Gao and Dou, were still beautiful and charming.

But Zhu Yixi understood that this is not the time to enjoy.

Comfort is the most important thing.

"Pass down my military order, curfew at night, and any soldiers who take advantage of the fire to rob and violate military discipline will be dealt with strictly by me."

On the way, King Yu ordered in a deep voice.

With quick steps, he came to his former home, the former Jinyiwei Qianhu House.

At some point, this place became a warehouse.

Zhu Meng explained: "Maybe it's the bad luck of disliking Jinyiwei, and it's far away from the Qin Palace, so no one occupies it. Large and small prisons have become warehouses for storing weapons."

"Really?" Zhu Yixi walked along, observing the plants and trees with mixed feelings in his heart.

After a long time, Zhu Meng saw that King Yu was lost in thought, and he couldn't help saying:

"Your Highness, the Prince's Mansion of Heyang County is still there, why don't you go for a walk?"

"is it?"

Zhu Yixi became interested.

Although it is said to be the enshrinement of King Heyang, the throne was gone several generations ago, and he has never lived in King Heyang's mansion.

"Go, go and have a look."

A group of people rode horses again and quickly arrived at Heyang Palace.

As a sealed palace, it is obviously valued by the Chuangjun generals, and there are groups of maids and servants, full of popularity.

The wives and concubines were even more beautiful, with melancholy faces, weeping silently, and panic written on their little faces.

Having experienced many battles, Zhu Yixi no longer looks down on these women, and has no intention of kissing Fangze.

"Keep them well!"

Zhu Yixi waved his hand and said, "I will live here tonight, and I don't need anyone to serve me."

"By the way, when Li Jingwu, You Shiwei and others come back, wake me up directly."

Going straight to the fairly clean study, Zhu Yixi didn't dislike it, and directly covered her with a quilt and fell asleep.

Whether it is the Military Justice Department or the Staff Department, they are busy tonight, and he only needs to wait for the good news tomorrow.
