Three days later, the gate of Chisha City was opened, the pennant on the city wall was unfurled, and Zhang Hao, the Duke of Yiguo, and Niu Shihao, the Marquis of An Yong, led the generals to gather outside the city of Nancheng with joy, ready to welcome the arrival of Li Yuntian and Zhou Zheng.

After three days of fierce fighting, the Northern Yuan army that tried to break through was surrounded and annihilated by Li Yuntian and Zhou Zheng who rushed in, announcing that the battle in Chisha City had officially come to an end.

In addition to the first to escape, the first to escape, Adai Khan and other high-level officials of the Northern Yuan Dynasty were surrendered or captured, and all of them were captured by the Ming army.

In the face of the Ming army, which had an absolute superiority in strength, the army of the Northern Yuan Dynasty was defeated after a little resistance, and the Ming army had been capturing prisoners all over the world for the past two or three days, and was very busy.

Under Li Yuntian's order, Harbara had already led 5,000 cavalry to pursue Tuhuan, and it was imperative to arrest the behind-the-scenes ruler of the Northern Yuan.

It is worth mentioning that Prince Babud of the Great Horde did not engage the Ming army and simply chose to surrender, and he wanted to keep the remaining soldiers of the Great Horde.

"It's coming!" Just when Zhang Hao and Niu Shihao were talking and laughing, a surprise shout came from the crowd that greeted them, and a Ming army appeared on the road in the distance, marching towards Chisha City.

Seeing this situation, the generals waiting in front of the city gate looked up excitedly, the Ming army in Kansai was about to meet with the Ming army in the northwest in Chisha City, which meant that the war that lasted for more than three years was officially over.

Li Yuntian and Zhou Zheng rode side by side, smiling and chatting with the surrounding generals, after all these years of hard fighting, everyone can finally breathe a sigh of relief, and the rest is to deal with the enemy army in the Hetao area.

Since Khordu Khan had already negotiated peace with Li Yuntian, the enemy army in the Hetao area, which was dominated by the Timurid Empire's army, was no longer to be feared, and the Adai Khan had also said that he would surrender the Northern Yuan army in the Hetao area.

Therefore, many generals in the Ming army already wanted to embark on the journey home and go home to reunite with their wives and children.

Li Yuntian naturally knew that the soldiers were homesick, so he planned to disband the Ming army in the northwest first, let the officers and men in the army return to their respective stations, and then withdraw the Ming army in Guanxi after the enemy army in the Hetao area was resolved.

"Meet the prince." When Li Yuntian came to the city gate, Zhang Hao and Niu Shihao led the generals behind them to bow and salute, the two of them are now in high spirits, and they have made great achievements in this expedition, and they will be rewarded by the imperial court after returning to Beijing.

"Your Excellency, excuse me." Seeing this, Li Yuntian smiled slightly, and personally dismounted to help Zhang Hao and Niu Shihao, he fulfilled his previous promise and gave the two people who did not participate in the Western Expeditionary Army a chance to show their strengths.

Subsequently, Li Yuntian was surrounded by everyone and entered the city, and the streets in the city were already full of people, and they stretched out their heads to look at Li Yuntian with great interest, everyone wanted to see the famous Zhongwu King.

Li Yuntian rode on his horse and smiled and waved his hand to the crowded people on the side of the street, showing an extremely close to the people, leaving a very good impression on the people of Chisha City.

In the evening, Zhang Hao held a grand banquet in the city, firstly, to clean up the dust for Li Yuntian and Zhou Zheng, and secondly, to celebrate the great battle in Chisha City.

"Father-in-law, there is no war in Kansai after this war, and now the soldiers are homesick, and my father-in-law is tired of leading the army back to the northwest tomorrow so that the soldiers can return to the camp, this king has written a good table for the court, and the court's reward can be issued within the year."

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Li Yuntian smiled and said to Zhou Zheng, who was sitting at the bottom left of him, that the situation in Guanxi had stabilized, and the Ming army in the northwest did not need to stay here.

"The soldiers of this prince have thanked the prince." Zhou Zheng smiled slightly when he heard this, and said to Li Yuntian, although Li Yuntian is his son-in-law, he is the prince after all, and the respect and humility in the officialdom are indispensable.

"The prince has been away from Beijing for a long time, and now that our army has won a complete victory, the prince should also return to Beijing to report to the imperial court." At this time, Zhang Hao smiled and said to Li Yuntian, Li Yuntian has been in Kanxi for almost two years, and there must be a lot of official business to be handled in the capital.

"After the war in Kansai, it was full of devastation and a hundred ruins are waiting to be rebuilt, and this king wants to stay here to deal with the aftermath." Li Yuntian knew what Zhang Hao meant, so he replied with a smile, "Guanxi is the farthest frontier of my Ming Dynasty, and now it has finally settled down, and this king feels that he should take this opportunity to govern it well." ”

"The prince is far-sighted, and my father admires him so much." Hearing this, Zhang Hao couldn't help but bow his hand to Li Yuntian, and solemnly said that if it were someone else, he would definitely rush back to the capital as soon as possible to report the good news to the Empress Dowager and the Orthodox Emperor.

Therefore, for Li Yuntian, who is worried about the country and the people, Zhang Hao admires it from the bottom of his heart.

Not only Zhang Hao, but also the civil and military officials in the Ming court did not know that Li Yuntian was dedicated to the public, not to mention the post-war places for the sake of the Ming Dynasty's southern and northern wars, and no one among the civil and military officials could reach Li Yuntian's broad realm of serving the country and the people.

"Lord Wang, there is a captive of the Northern Yuan Dynasty who claims to be the attendant of the Hanlin Academy, and asks to see the prince!" At this moment, a guard strode into the banquet hall and shouted at Li Yuntian.

"The attendant of the Hanlin Academy?" Li Yuntian frowned slightly when he heard this, how could someone from the Hanlin Academy appear in the military camp of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, and he was such an important official as a waiter, but then he remembered something and nodded to the guard, "Bring him to see this king." ”

Hearing this, the generals present all showed surprised expressions, and everyone wanted to know who had such great courage to pretend to be the Hanlin attendant of the Ming Dynasty, knowing that the war in the Western Regions did not involve the people of the Hanlin Academy.

"Xiaguan Hanlin talked about Wang Qi and met the prince." Not long after, an old man wearing tattered Beiyuan costumes, unkempt hair, and gray hair was led in by the guards, and when he saw Li Yuntian, his eyes showed excitement, and he hurriedly bowed down and saluted Li Yuntian.

"Lord Wang, it's really you, this king thought you were killed, why did you end up like this?" Li Yuntian glanced the old man up and down, couldn't help but get up and leave his seat, and stepped forward to help him up.

This old man is none other than Wang Qi, a waiter of the Hanlin Academy who went to the Eastern Chagatai Khanate a few years ago in high spirits and wanted to resolve the war between the Eastern Chagatai Khanate and the Timurid Empire with education.

Since Wang Qi entered the Eastern Chagatai Khanate to meet the leading generals of the Timurid Empire, he lost the news, Li Yuntian always thought that he was dead, and never expected to see him here.

"He's Wang Qi?" The generals at the scene couldn't help but look at each other when they heard this, Wang Qi had just passed the age of not being confused, he was an elegant middle-aged man, and now he had become a dark-skinned old man.

"Lord Wang, it's hard to say!" Wang Qi was suddenly touched by sadness when he heard this, and after his nose twitched a few times, he couldn't help but cry bitterly, venting the grievances and depression in his heart.

"Come on, take Lord Wang down to bathe and change clothes, and take care of it." Li Yuntian saw that Wang Qi was emotional, and knew that he must have suffered a lot over the years, so he commanded the guards on the side in a deep voice, preparing to see him again after Wang Qi calmed down.

"Lord Wang, the king said that he obstructed the dispatch of troops in the main hall that day, and now he has ended up in this field, which can be described as self-inflicted." After Wang Qi was supported by the guards, a general opened his mouth and said that he thought that Wang Qi was a nerd who misled the country and the people.

"The king is also for the sake of the Ming Dynasty, otherwise he would not be in danger alone, but he doesn't know the sinister nature of the war." Li Yuntian waved his hand when he heard this, correcting the general's statement, no matter what, Wang Qi went to the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, although his approach was a little naïve, but it was also to eliminate the war.

The general bowed to Li Yuntian when he heard this, and did not say anything more, at that time, Wang Qi was quite rude to Li Yuntian who advocated sending troops to fight in the main hall, and now that Li Yuntian gave Wang Qi face, he naturally stopped saying anything.

After the banquet, Li Yuntian summoned Wang Qi, and after bathing and changing clothes, Wang Qi's appearance suddenly changed, although his expression was still haggard, but his spirit was obviously much better.

According to the report of the guards who changed the bath water for Wang Qi, after Wang Qi washed it, the water in the full bath bucket turned into black water, and I don't know how long he hadn't taken a bath.

There is also a Mongolian woman who looks quite standard with Wang Qi to see Li Yuntian, who is Wang Qi's wife here and Wang Qi's savior, if it were not for this Mongolian woman, I am afraid he would have died of illness.

According to Wang Qi's account, after he arrived in the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, he went to meet the general of the Timurid Empire, but was locked up by the general without saying a few words or two.

Originally, Wang Qi thought that the generals of the Timurid Empire would let him return to the Ming Dynasty in accordance with the rule of "the two countries will not fight each other", but the facts made him disappointed and helpless, and he was dragged to the stable to serve the horses after being locked up for a few days.

The dignified Daming Hanlin said that where he had done this kind of rough work, the smell in the stable alone almost didn't make Wang Qi faint, but if he didn't work, he didn't eat, and he was beaten and scolded by the stable steward.

Wang Qi originally wanted to die rather die than starve to death than work in the stable, but the taste of starvation was really uncomfortable, and in the end he couldn't stand the hunger and worked in the stable.

It is worth mentioning that on the first day Wang Qi was brought to the stable, the official robe made of precious silk on his body was picked up by the people in the stable, and he was thrown a tattered, dirty and smelly garment, which almost killed Wang Qi.

Wang Qi worked in the stable for nearly a year, during which he fell seriously ill several times, and because he was an envoy sent by the Ming Dynasty, the officials of the Timurid Empire learned about it and asked the doctor to treat him.

However, since the defeat of the Ming army in Heishui City and Blue Leaf City, Wang Qi was flickered by the officials of the Timurid Empire, and in the eyes of the officials of the Timurid Empire, the Ming Dynasty was unable to resist the attack of the Timurid Empire and the Northern Yuan coalition army after losing the elite Western Expeditionary Army, so Wang Qi lost his value.

Wang Qi's condition became worse and worse day by day, and he finally fell ill again, after all, his thin body could not bear the rough work of the stable.

This time, no one paid attention to Wang Qi, just when he was sick to death, a Northern Yuan general came to the stable to choose a horse, and one of his servants saw that Wang Qi was pitiful, so he quietly brought out Wang Qi, who no one cared about, and recovered after some careful recuperation.

The servant of the Northern Yuan general had a good impression of Daming, so he let his daughter serve Wang Qi and became Wang Qi's wife, and did things for the Northern Yuan general after hiding his identity.

As the Northern Yuan army was wiped out in Chisha City, Wang Qi was also captured by the Ming army, and then revealed his identity to the guards, and was brought into the city to find Li Yuntian for verification.

Li Yuntian knew that Wang Qi had suffered a lot and that his body and mind had been severely damaged, so he told him to recuperate in peace, and someone would send him back to the capital at that time.

This made Wang Qi very grateful, he originally thought that Li Yuntian would take the opportunity to humiliate him, but he didn't expect Li Yuntian to treat him politely, and he couldn't help but feel very ashamed when he thought of his previous offense to Li Yuntian.
