Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ revealed to His Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم, ‘I killed 70 thousand people in lieu of the murder of Yahya Bin Zakariyya (عَـلَـيْهِمَا السَّلَام) and I will kill double the number of people in lieu of your grandson.’ (Al-Mustadrak, pp. 485, vol. 3, Hadees 4208)
History delineates that Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ deputed an oppressor like ‘Bakht-e-Nasr’, who claimed to be god, to take revenge for the unjust assassination of Sayyiduna Yahya Bin Zakariyya عَـلَـيْهِمَا الـسَّـلَام. Similarly, Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ deputed the liar Mukhtar Saqafi, to take revenge for the unjust assassination of Sayyiduna Imam Husayn رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ. (Shaam-e-Karbala, pp. 285)

Only Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ knows what His strategies are. Based on His sole intent, He عَزَّوَجَلَّ sets the oppressors to destroy the oppressors. Hence, it is stated in verse 129 of Surah Al-An’aam:
وَ کَذٰ لِکَ نُوَ لِّیۡ بَعۡضَ ا لظّٰلِمِیۡنَ بَعۡضًا بِمَا کَا نُوۡا یَکۡسِبُوۡ نَ ﴿۱۲۹﴾٪
And likewise we empower some of the oppressors over others the recompense of their deeds.
[Kanz-ul-Iman (Translation of Quran)] (Part 8, Surah Al-An’aam, verse 129)
