Ming Dynasty: A hundred-year-old immortal cultivator, Zhu Yuanzhang’s biological father

"My Lord, now that Si Lunfa has been killed, the rebels are leaderless, and they will definitely be unstable."

"We should seize the opportunity to pursue them and wipe them out in one fell swoop."

At this time, a general spoke.

"My Lord, what you said is absolutely true!"

"Their internal situation is unstable. It is a great opportunity for us to take action and destroy them."

"Yes!"

"..."

Other generals seconded the motion.

"Ok!"

"Not bad!"

"The imperial army is also ready. When the time comes, we will go out with them and destroy them."

Mu Ying nodded.

....................................

The rebel camp!

Inside the central military camp!
The atmosphere in the big tent was quite depressing at this time. Si Lunfa was dead, and the group was leaderless.

They lost nearly 50,000 troops in the attack on Dian Cang Mountain, which was a heavy blow to them.

"Everyone, what should we do now?"

"Unfortunately, the Grand Marshal was killed by Zhu Xiongying. Now we are leaderless. We must quickly elect someone to take charge of the situation."

"I propose that the eldest son be appointed as the Grand Marshal, so that he can inherit his father's career."

Someone immediately stood up and recommended Si Lunfa’s eldest son Si Xingfa.

"I agree!"

"I have no opinion!"

"..."

This proposal was instantly agreed by everyone, as chieftains have always been succeeded by the eldest son.

As Si Xingfa was the eldest son of Si Lunfa, he naturally inherited the throne.

"Young Master, Southern Yunnan depends on you from now on."

"Meet the Generalissimo!"

Everyone knelt down immediately, and Si Xingfa did not show any panic about this sudden incident.

But very calm!

"I have no talent or virtue. I am grateful for your care. I will definitely avenge my father and kill Zhu Xiongying."

"The Generalissimo is wise!"

Everyone knelt down immediately.

"Grand Marshal, the Ming army is about to arrive. When they learn that the former marshal was killed, they will definitely come to kill us."

"Besides, their morale is high now, and they will definitely not miss such a good opportunity."

“How should we respond?”

Everyone looked at Si Xingfa, hoping that they could think of a way to deal with the situation.

"Based on what my father did before, he should have been able to kill Zhu Xiongying, but he was killed by Zhu Xiongying instead."

"This proves that we have a spy among us. Otherwise, how could such a confidential matter be discovered by Zhu Xiongying?"

"Our top priority is to find out who the spy is, and at the same time we have to prepare for defense."

"Resist the Ming army's attack!"

Si Xingfa's words were recognized by everyone.

"What the Grand Marshal said is absolutely right!"

"Grand Marshal, leave the matter of investigating the spy to me. I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer."

The military advisor at the side spoke.

"Uh-huh!"

"Others, strengthen the city's defenses. If possible, set up an ambush on the road they must pass through."

"Let them have a taste of our power."

"The Generalissimo is wise!"

............................................................

Time flies like a galloping horse, and in the blink of an eye it’s already three months later!
Fu Youde's army finally arrived, and Mu Ying and his men followed, as did Li Jinglong and Zhu Yunhuan.

Inside the central military tent!

"Everyone, His Majesty ordered me to cooperate with Xiping Hou to eliminate the Tusi."

"Assign tasks now!"

"Zhu Xiongying, Zhu Yunxun, Li Jinglong, Mu Chun!"

"The general is here!"

"Zhu Xiongying orders you to be the left vanguard, and Li Jinglong to be the left vanguard deputy general, leading 30,000 soldiers to clear the way for the army."

"Zhu Yunhuan orders you to be the right vanguard and Mu Chun to be the deputy general of the right vanguard, leading 30,000 troops to clear the way for the main army."

"No mistakes!"

"The last general takes command!"

In the army, everything must be done under military orders!
"..."

Fu Youde then continued to assign tasks.

"The army will set out in three days, without any delay!"

"Yes!"

....................................

Outside the big tent!
"Yunxun, now that you're here, who's going to take care of Xiaolin?"

"Brother, don't worry!"

"The Empress Dowager is watching over it personally, no one dares to move!"

After hearing this, Zhu Xiongying finally felt relieved. With Empress Ma taking care of him, no one in the entire Ming Dynasty dared to mess with him.

"That's good!"

..........................................

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye it’s already three days later!
The Ming army sets out!
Zhu Xiongying and Li Jinglong led 30,000 troops to clear the way for the army.

Jiwen Valley!
When the troops arrived here, Zhu Xiongying ordered them to stop.

"Your Highness, what's wrong?"

"Cousin, there is an ambush ahead!"

Upon hearing this, Li Jinglong's face changed drastically.

"I'll take some people to destroy them."

"Not urgent!"

"Let's go over there!"

Li Jinglong was stunned when he heard this.

"What?"

"Your Highness, did I hear you correctly?"

"walk over?"

Li Jinglong thought there was something wrong with his ears.

"Cousin, you lead the men to move up from the flank, and I will lead the men over there."

"Your Highness, this is too dangerous, let me do it!"

Zhu Xiongying shook his head.

"Cousin, they want me. If I show up, they will get suspicious."

"But it's too dangerous!"

"No problem! You don't need to venture into the tiger's den to get the tiger cub."

"Go!"

Li Jinglong couldn't persuade Zhu Xiongying, so he had no choice but to lead his men to sneak over.

........................

"General, will they really pass by here?" "What if they don't pass by here?"

"Don't think too much. The intelligence must be accurate. They will definitely pass through this side."

"Just wait patiently!"

"Yes!"

Not long after, Zhu Xiongying and his men were seen passing slowly.

"General, they are coming!"

Hearing this, everyone immediately became alert.

"Everyone prepare to fight!"

"Crossbowmen prepare!"

"put!"

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh….
A dense rain of arrows flew towards Zhu Xiongying's army, immediately causing a commotion.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!!!"

A scream suddenly woke everyone up.

"Protect His Highness!!!"

Everyone rushed to protect Zhu Xiongying.

Arrows flew in from all directions like locusts.

"what"

Suddenly screams were heard and blood splattered everywhere! ! ! !

"Li Jinglong, if you don't come out, we're going to die."

"Hold!"

Zhu Xiongying roared.

"kill!"

"Brothers, follow me and kill!"

Li Jinglong suddenly rushed out from behind the enemy, and the rebels were terrified.

"kill!"

The two sides immediately started fighting each other, with swords flashing and shouts shaking the earth.

Li Jinglong rushed forward with a long sword in his hand and fought with the enemy.

He chopped down a man with one blow, then chopped him in half with another blow, and blood spurted out.

Li Jinglong was like a wolf among a flock of sheep, waving the long sword in his hand and killing the enemy by surprise.

Zhu Xiongying also immediately led his men to attack and support Li Jinglong.

Those holding spears fell down one after another wherever they passed.

The two sides fought on the hillside, and the scene was extremely fierce.

"what!"

"what!"

There were constant screams as both sides suffered increasing casualties in the fight!
On the hillside, dust was flying, and the battle between the Ming army and the rebels had entered a white-hot stage.

The sunlight shines through the thick smoke, sprinkling across the battlefield of blood and fire, dyeing every inch of land with a tragic color.

Zhu Xiongying was wearing heavy armor and holding a long spear that was shining with cold light. He was like a god of war. Wherever he went, the enemies were terrified.

Every time he swung his gun, he was accompanied by a low roar. Wherever the tip of the gun touched, an enemy would fall down, and blood would splatter everywhere, staining his battle robe red.

"kill!"

Zhu Xiongying roared and swept his spear across, instantly repelling several rebels who were trying to besiege him.

His figure shuttled across the battlefield, and every charge was like a tiger descending from the mountain, unstoppable.

Under his leadership, the morale of the Ming army soldiers was greatly boosted. They followed his example and fought with their lives, vowing to completely eliminate the evil from this land.

However, the rebels were no ordinary people. There were many brave men among them, and their numbers were large, so the battle was extremely brutal.

Arrows rained down from all directions. Although the Ming soldiers were brave, they still suffered casualties under the dense rain of arrows.

In the pool of blood, broken limbs and body parts were everywhere, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood, which was suffocating.

Li Jinglong, on the other hand, was holding a long sword, his body covered in blood, and he cut a bloody path from the enemy's rear and went straight to the enemy's main general.

Every time he swung his sword, it was accompanied by the enemy's wailing, and no one could stop the sword.

He and Zhu Xiongying responded to each other from a distance, one on the left and one on the right, like two sharp blades, constantly cutting the enemy's defense line.

"Kill! For the Ming Dynasty, the Ming army is mighty!"

Li Jinglong shouted, and the Ming army soldiers responded one after another.

The battle became increasingly fierce, with both sides charging and killing each other repeatedly on the hillside, with each encounter resulting in the loss of life.

Zhu Xiongying's spear was already stained red with blood, but he seemed to feel no fatigue, and each swing of the spear became more powerful.

His figure drew brilliant tracks on the battlefield, and every charge was like the god of death's scythe, reaping the lives of the enemies.

With a sudden swing of his spear, he immediately knocked the surrounding enemies to the ground. He took advantage of the situation and rushed forward with his spear like a dragon, instantly piercing an enemy's chest. Blood gushed out, staining his battle robe red.

Even as Zhu Xiongying single-handedly penetrated the enemy's formation and was invincible, the situation on the battlefield did not undergo a fundamental change.

The rebels seemed to be aroused with greater anger and determination. They began to counterattack in an organized manner. The sounds of trumpets and shouts intertwined to form a tragic and passionate war song.

As for Li Jinglong, although he had penetrated deep into the enemy's rear and was approaching the enemy's main general, his path was also blocked by more and more enemies.

Every swing of the knife requires greater strength, and every move forward is accompanied by the collision and splash of blood and flesh.

The blade of his long sword was bent, and the blood groove was filled with the blood of the enemies, but his eyes were still firm, as if he could penetrate the heavy fog and look directly at the dawn of victory.

"Brothers, rush with me!"

Li Jinglong's voice became hoarse due to long roaring, but his appeal was not diminished at all.

The Ming army soldiers seemed to be injected with an invisible force. They forgot the pain and the fear, and only knew to follow this brave general, forward and forward!

On the hillside, the battle between the two sides entered its most brutal stage.

The Ming army's defense line began to waver under the rebels' wave after wave of attacks, and even gaps appeared in some places.

But every time this happened, Zhu Xiongying or Li Jinglong would always appear in time. They would fight one against ten, or ten against a hundred, and built an insurmountable barrier with their flesh and blood.

Zhu Xiongying's spear was cut off by the enemy in a fierce confrontation, but he did not hesitate at all. He drew out the spare short blade from his waist and continued to fight.

His face and arms were covered with scars and blood was constantly oozing out, but he seemed to feel no pain, only the fire in his eyes burned brighter and brighter.

"Kill them all!"

Zhu Xiongying's voice echoed on the battlefield, inspiring every Ming army soldier who was still fighting.

They began to spontaneously organize a counterattack, taking advantage of the terrain to ambush and outflank the rebels.

On the battlefield, swords flashed and blood and flesh flew everywhere.

The boundary between the Ming army and the rebels became blurred, and only the disappearance of life and the roar of anger constantly reminded people of the cruelty of this war.

As the sun sets, its afterglow shines on the battlefield, covering this land of blood and fire with a golden coat.

Li Jinglong finally had a head-on confrontation with the enemy's main general.

He was a burly man with a fleshy face, holding a huge saber in his hand. Every blow was enough to cut through a soldier's armor.

But Li Jinglong was not afraid. He nimbly dodged the opponent's attacks while looking for opportunities to counterattack.

In a moment of passing each other, Li Jinglong seized the opportunity, and his long sword slashed at an incredible angle, directly cutting off one of the enemy general's arms.

"what!"

The enemy commander let out a shrill scream, and the saber in his hand fell to the ground.

The enemy commander who had lost an arm had pain and anger intertwined on his face. He roared, as if he wanted to pour out all his unwillingness and humiliation in this one blow.

However, Li Jinglong did not give him a chance to breathe. He took advantage of the moment when the opponent was off balance and approached him quickly. His long sword was as fast as lightning and went straight to his heart.

But the enemy commander is also a fierce general after all. His many years of battlefield experience have allowed him to unleash amazing potential at this critical moment of life and death.

Relying on the strength of one arm, he barely dodged the fatal blow by leaning sideways. At the same time, he pushed the ground hard with his other foot, and his body shot towards Li Jinglong like an arrow, attempting to fight a final battle with his physical strength.

Li Jinglong flashed and cleverly used the terrain on the battlefield. He rolled over to avoid the opponent's charge. At the same time, his long sword drew a graceful arc in the air and chopped directly at the waist of the enemy commander.

However, the enemy commander managed to grab the blade with his remaining left hand at the critical moment. Although his face was covered in blood, his eyes flashed with a fierce light.

The two men were in a stalemate, the long knife bit into his muscles, and he gripped the hilt tightly, as if he wanted to inject the strength of his life into this final resistance.

The air around them seemed to freeze, all sounds disappeared, leaving only the heavy breathing and heartbeats of the two people.

Li Jinglong took a deep breath, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes, and he suddenly loosened his hand holding the knife, turned his body to the side, and with the help of the opponent's strength, kicked the enemy commander in the knee with lightning speed.

The enemy commander's knees went weak, his balance was unstable, and he fell forward.

Li Jinglong took the opportunity to leap up, and his long sword flipped in the air, falling at an incredible angle. This time, he completely ended the life of the enemy commander. (End of this chapter)
