Daming: After self-explosive time travel, Lao Zhu's mentality collapsed

Chu Ze stared at the battlefield in front of him, feeling vaguely uneasy.

Although Temujin was dead, the barbarian army retreated too quickly, as if they had been prepared.

Could it be that this is just a trick of theirs, meant to paralyze our army and wait for an opportunity to make a comeback?
Just as Chu Ze was deep in thought, a burst of hurried horse hoof sounds came from behind him.

It turned out that the scout who was sent out for reconnaissance had rushed back. He jumped off his horse in panic, rolled and crawled to his knees on the ground.

"Report! Report! General Chu, something bad has happened!" The scout's voice trembled and his face was full of fear.

Chu Ze's heart tightened, and he asked sternly, "What happened? Tell me quickly!"

The scout trembled all over and stammered, "General, I have discovered another army of barbarians in a valley ten miles away! The number of their troops and flags is far greater than the one we fought this time!"

As soon as these words were spoken, all the soldiers present changed color.

Chu Ze's face darkened and he thought to himself that something was wrong.

It seems that I guessed the barbarians' tricks correctly. They deliberately used Temujin as bait to lure the tiger away from the mountain so that the main force could outflank him from the side!
Our army’s morale is high right now. If we retreat now, all our previous efforts will be wasted.

But if he rashly accepted the battle, he might be outnumbered and put in danger. Chu Ze had made up his mind in the dilemma.

He looked around at the soldiers with a sharp gaze and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, the barbarians are cunning and want to use evil tricks to severely damage our army. At present, the enemy is numerous and we are few, and we are afraid of exhaustion, so it is not advisable to linger in the battle."

Chu Ze paused and suddenly raised his voice: "But our Ming Dynasty is full of righteousness, how can we be underestimated by these barbarians? Even if we are outnumbered, we will fight to the death and never retreat! Are you afraid of fighting?"

The soldiers shouted in unison: "We will follow General Chu until death and kill all the barbarians who come to attack us!"

Chu Ze was overjoyed, stroked his sword and shouted: "Great! You are so loyal and brave, I have no regrets in my death! Pass the order down, the whole army regroups, immediately rushes to the valley, and fights the barbarians to the death!"

"Yes!" The generals received the order and immediately dispersed to pass the message.

After a while, the army lined up in a solemn battle formation, and under the leadership of Chu Ze, they rushed towards the valley. The army was so powerful and imposing. The invincible Chu camp cavalry was mighty and unstoppable.

However, when the army arrived outside the valley, the scene in front of them stunned everyone. The valley was empty, and there was no trace of barbarians. The scout was already scared out of his wits, and said in a trembling voice: "General, I clearly saw tens of thousands of enemy troops here, and it is true!"

Chu Ze frowned, reined in his horse and shouted, "Be careful, there's a trap! Everyone, be alert and be ready to fight at any time!"

Before he finished speaking, whistles suddenly sounded all around. Then, barbarian soldiers all over the mountains and plains emerged from the bushes in the valley like a tide and surrounded the Ming army!
It turned out that this group of cunning barbarians had dug a large number of tunnels in the valley and ambushed us for a long time. Now our army has fallen into their trap, which is exactly what they want!
Chu Ze immediately ordered: "All soldiers, listen to my order, fight your way out of the encirclement at all costs!" Immediately, the two armies started a fierce hand-to-hand fight in the valley. The barbarians had the advantage in numbers and were well prepared. Although the Ming army was brave, they were outnumbered. For a while, the battle was close, shouts were heard, swords flashed, and blood rained.

Chu Ze himself was so bloodthirsty that he charged left and right in the enemy's formation. However, there were too many enemies and he was about to be overwhelmed. In a hurry, he took out the mysterious jade seal of destiny from his arms, silently chanted a spell, and prayed for divine protection.

In an instant, the jade seal shone brightly, turning into a golden light that enveloped the entire army. The originally exhausted soldiers suddenly felt refreshed and their fighting spirits were high. However, the barbarian soldiers seemed to have lost their will to fight and retreated one after another.

Chu Ze was overjoyed when he saw this, and shouted: "Pursue the victory! At one stroke, kill them all!"

The courage of the soldiers increased greatly, and their morale was high. Chu Ze took the lead in charging, and was invincible. The sword in his hand broke through the air, and with the force of thunder and lightning, he swept through the army. The barbarian army retreated step by step and was completely defeated.

At this moment, on a distant hilltop, a tall figure in black armor silently watched all this. He was the true commander of the barbarians, a Khan more ferocious than Temujin—the Revenge King Black Eagle!
"Chu Ze, you damned fellow!" Black Hawk gnashed his teeth, his eyes full of murderous intent: "Temujin, that idiot, can't even deal with you. Forget it, it seems I have to do it myself!"

Black Hawk sneered, jumped off the cliff, and instantly disappeared into the smoke-filled battlefield. He stepped on the smoke and dust, came in front of Chu Ze, and shouted: "Chu Ze! Don't be so arrogant! I will kill you today!"

Before he finished speaking, the giant axe broke through the air, carrying the sound of whistling wind, and chopped towards Chu Ze's head. Chu Ze had no time to react, and he only felt a black screen in front of his eyes and the sound of wind blasting in his ears. However, in the blink of an eye, a green shadow flashed by and blocked his way!
With a "puff", blood splattered everywhere. The one who blocked the fatal blow for Chu Ze was actually the loyal deputy general - Li Xing!
Li Xing was hit by the axe and fell heavily to the ground. Blood gushed out and soon dyed the ground red. Chu Ze was horrified and quickly helped him up: "Li Xing! What are you doing?!"

Li Xing endured the severe pain, blood oozing from the corner of his mouth. He raised his hand tremblingly, pointed at Black Hawk, and said with difficulty: "General, be careful of this man! He is the commander of the barbarians, the Revenge King Black Hawk! He is not an ordinary person. Fight against him"

Before he finished speaking, Li Xing's eyes went dark and he died. Chu Ze was grief-stricken, hugged Li Xing's body tightly, and tears burst out.

Seeing this, Black Hawk laughed strangely and said, "How touching! But, you think you can block my way with these useless people under you? You are just dreaming!"

Chu Ze was furious when he heard this. He gently put down Li Xing's body, slowly stood up, and looked at him with a sharp gaze. He tightly grasped the sword in his hand, pointed the tip of the sword at Black Hawk, and said in a deep voice: "Black Hawk, right? You despicable villain, today is the day you die!"

"How dare you!" Black Hawk turned pale, raised his axe and roared: "You are just a child of the Ming Dynasty, and you dare to speak nonsense to me? I will kill you without a burial place!"

"Then let's see if you have the ability to do it!" Chu Ze sneered and suddenly shouted: "Sword Control Technique! Break the Army!"

Before he finished speaking, a sharp sword light broke through the air and instantly sank into Black Hawk's chest. That was Chu Ze's unique skill, known as "Breaking the Army", a super killing move that combined all his life's skills into one strike!
However, to Chu Ze's surprise, Black Hawk only stumbled and did not fall to the ground. It turned out that his chest was torn open, blood gushing out, and the injury was horrific. But Black Hawk seemed to be unaware of it, and instead licked the blood at the corner of his mouth excitedly.

"Interesting! You, kid, can actually hurt me?" A hint of surprise flashed in Black Hawk's eyes, and then he burst into crazy laughter: "Very good! Very good! This is exactly what I want! It seems that you are much more interesting than that waste Temujin! Come on, let me enjoy the pleasure of killing you!"

Chu Ze's heart sank, thinking to himself that this was not good. It seemed that this Black Hawk was indeed extraordinary! Not only was he highly skilled in martial arts, but he was also ruthless and did not take his life seriously at all. If the battle was not resolved quickly, it would be very dangerous.

Just as Chu Ze was thinking about countermeasures, Black Hawk had already rushed over with big strides. His eyes were red, like an evil ghost demanding his life, he raised the giant axe and chopped down at Chu Ze again. (End of this chapter)
