Ever since the Eldest Prince entered Ying Capital City, marking a new phase in the war, the atmosphere within the Left Army had been grave.
To establish strict military discipline, three assistant commanders and nine commanders were executed. The Eldest Prince, who had been gentle on the journey, personally oversaw the executions, wielding the Sword of the Son of Heaven.
Afterwards, one commanding general was beheaded for failing to observe commands.
Though the commanding general of a local garrison could not compare in status or significance to those in the great Northern or Southern Armies, he was still a commanding general!
He was executed without a second thought.
Several hundred people were implicated, all sentenced to penal servitude, specifically road and bridge construction.
It was then that the military leaders of the Left Army truly realized that the Eldest Prince genuinely had the blood of the Ji Family flowing through his veins!
