Chapter 220: Occupation

"Report to the marshal, no trace of the enemy general has been found." The soldier in charge of cleaning up the battlefield reported to Ye Junwen. Obviously, Duke Seleto and they didn't catch it, most of the dead were soldiers, the main officers and generals of the enemy were not found, and they didn't know when they left the battlefield, the night was dark and windy, and the battlefield was chaotic, although Ye Junwen had night vision devices, he still couldn't find the enemy's escape route.

"But depending on this situation, there shouldn't be many troops left on the other side." Hejiaer next to him said, after all, the words of the large army have long been discovered by Ye Junwen and them, and Ye Junwen and they don't know how many troops Duke Seleto has in total, but it is speculated that the number of people who successfully escaped will not be higher than 5,000.

"It's good luck, but it doesn't matter." Ye Junwen said that he was also looking for trouble with the elves, but now the Duke of Seleto must still go to the elves, otherwise he has somewhere else to go. In this case, Ye Junwen just used them as an excuse for war.

"What now?" Hegar asked, of course there are options for asking this question, there are currently two choices, one is of course to continue to pursue the troops of the Duke of Seleto, and the other is to stabilize the main city first. Theoretically, it is of course more important to stabilize the main city now, after all, the main city has been captured now, and they still have a lot of things to do, and the most important thing is, of course, to build the country, which is the so-called announcement to the world.

Ye Junwen thought about it for a while, and then decided to go to the city first. Although Duke Seleto is very annoying on his side, it is still beneficial to let them join the people of the elven clan, and the remaining strength of the other party will not become a threat, but it can provide an excuse, so although Ye Junwen now let the cavalry team directly pursue them, there is a great possibility to catch up with them, but he still chooses to let the other party continue to run.

The city gate had been opened at this time, and there were still some remnants of Duke Seleto's troops inside, seeing that the situation was gone, they also chose to surrender one after another. Ye Junwen and they still didn't pay any price in this battle, although last night's battle was a bit chaotic, but in fact, it was a one-sided slaughter, the other party's soldiers had no fighting spirit, and it was so chaotic to run around, so they almost didn't encounter any counterattack. The army of more than 100,000 people really makes these people unable to have any sense of continuing to resist.

This is the first time Ye Junwen has come to the main city, entering the gate, what Ye Junwen sees is a huge city, which is much more magnificent than the bust seen outside before, but it is a pity that the current main city has gone through a month of war, and the traces of the siege of the Duke of Seleto's troops are still there a few days ago, whether it is the outer city or the inner city, it has been damaged to a certain extent.

On the street, Ye Junwen can even see those civilians hidden in the corners of the roadside, since the start of the war for a month, these civilians have been poisoned by the war, and the food in the city is given priority to the soldiers, and if the houses are destroyed, of course, there is no time to care about you, the result is that the civilians are displaced, and then they can't get out of the city, and finally they can only wander in the city.

For Ye Junwen and them, these civilians didn't show any emotion, after all, this city has changed several masters in a short period of time, and they don't know what kind of force Ye Junwen is, and now they can't even care about their own survival, do they care who is the emperor?

Of course, Ye Junwen didn't have time to pay attention to them, and rode directly to the direction of the palace. At the gate of the inner city of the palace, Ye Junwen saw something strange.

At the gate of the inner city, Ye Junwen saw a row of things similar to cross torture frames, and on top of the torture racks, there were people, and there were not only men and women, but even children, everyone was bloody, as if they were being tortured. Ye Junwen was still wondering who these people were, but Hejiaer next to him suddenly shouted, "Your Majesty? ”

Ye Junwen immediately understood, yes, these people are obviously the previous members of the royal family, including the emperor, all the princes, concubines, princes and grandsons are now hanging here. This was clearly done by the Duke of Seleto, and the purpose was of course simple, to ensure the legitimacy of his own throne.

Ye Junwen took a closer look, and sure enough, these people all had the characteristics of the beast clan, which was similar to the situation of the Seven Princes he had seen before. After Duke Seleto occupied the palace, in order to make the people in the city support him, he pulled out these royal family members who had become half-orcs, and put them at the gate of the inner city, so that everyone could see that the other party had become half-orcs, so that the people in the city of course believed what Duke Seleto said before.

Of course, Ye Junwen's side also did not recognize the previous royal family, but considering the relationship between Hejiaer's side, Ye Junwen still asked the soldiers to go up and take a look, and after waiting for a while, Ye Junwen got a report that most of the royal family, including the former emperor, were dead, but there were still two fish that slipped through the net and were still alive. Ye Junwen confirmed that these two living people, one is the eleventh princess, and the other is a royal grandson, the son of the second prince, that is, the eldest emperor's grandson (the eldest prince was exiled for treason, so the second prince is considered the crown prince).

Although the two are a generation apart, they are about the same age, about thirteen or fourteen years old. Because they were subjected to a criminal law similar to torture, both of them were seriously injured, almost as if they were dead, and no matter what they said, it was estimated that they would not last long.

Under normal circumstances, it is naturally better to deal with these two fish that have slipped through the net directly, so as to prevent future troubles, especially this eldest emperor grandson is still relatively troublesome, if someone wants to restore it with his identity, it is indeed an obstacle, but Ye Junwen doesn't care about this.

Isn't it the case that most stage plays are performed like this? The prince, who is hated by the country and the family, works hard, and comes back for revenge after a series of adventures and growth, and the focus is, of course, the word revenge. Although Ye Junwen has put the ticket on the elf clan now, it is not too much, keeping these two people, maybe it will be a good ticket in the future.

He Jiaer, who happened to be next to him, was also waiting for Ye Junwen's decision, looking at him, it was obvious that he wanted Ye Junwen to let these two people go, after all, they were just children, but he also knew the current situation and didn't know how to speak, but at this moment, Ye Junwen also said: "Take it down for treatment." ”

Hegar was stunned for a moment, and then showed a moved expression. Since they were all taken down for treatment, naturally they would not be killed, to be honest, Hejiaer was still very surprised by Ye Junwen's decision, he didn't say anything and didn't think Ye Junwen would let them go, but he didn't expect Ye Junwen to really do it, which made Hejiaer very admirable.

Ye Junwen didn't say much about this matter, and after dealing with it a little, Ye Junwen also quickly entered the inner city. The outer ring of the inner city is the aristocratic district, and all the people living here are nobles, but now the situation here looks quite bad, many houses have been destroyed, and then it looks as if there was a battle here, and the blood on the ground is still there, and there is a faint smell of blood around.

There are no living people in the surrounding houses, I don't know where the nobles here have gone, and Ye Junwen and they continue to walk forward, the traces of the battle are even more obvious, it seems that the Duke of Seleto's troops broke through the inner city before and there was a battle with the royal guards here, of course, they didn't have time to repair these traces after that, they just simply disposed of the corpses, and it is estimated that the corpses are still piled up and not buried.

Walking all the way up, Ye Junwen finally saw the palace. When he was outside the city, Ye Junwen saw the palace, but this time when he came here, his feelings were even more obvious. This is a very magnificent building, the whole is white and brown structure, very aged, the building is indeed very similar to those ancient buildings in the West, there is a sense of sacredness. Similarly, the door of the palace was also open, and it looked empty inside, as if there was no one, it seemed that the Duke of Seleto had left in a hurry before, and even a lot of armaments and materials were left here too late to take away.

Ye Junwen also waved his hand, and asked the soldiers to search here and see if there was any fish that had slipped through the net of Duke Seleto, and by the way, he also cleaned up this place, which is really a bit too messy at the moment. And Ye Junwen and the others came to the main hall of the palace to wait, it was obvious that this main hall was used as a temporary command post for Duke Seleto's troops before, so this side was relatively clean.

The search of the palace continued for a while, and Ye Junwen also received a lot of reports one after another. First of all, there were the ministers of the Imperial Palace, most of whom were imprisoned in the prison after the city was destroyed, and the Duke of Seletto did not have time to deal with them, so they are still there. Some of the ministers had not eaten for three days when they were found, and some had died due to the harsh environment, Ye Junwen didn't say anything, he rescued them all, and healed them all for the time being.

On the other side, the servants of the palace were also found, they were imprisoned in a nearby noblemanor, and they were guarded by the soldiers before, but now the soldiers have run away, and many of them have also run away, but there are also many people who have stayed, and so on, since they have found out, Ye Junwen also asked them to come back, just tidying up the palace.

Then the soldiers quickly brought Ye Junwen a good news, that is, they found the treasure house in the palace, and when they heard this, Ye Junwen's eyes lit up.
