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

A piercing sound was heard, and everyone on the city wall woke up.

I saw a steady stream of enemies climbing up from below, some of them had already climbed onto the city wall and killed several people.

The soldiers defending the city immediately rose up to resist!

"Fire arrows!"

The commander on the city wall shouted loudly.

In an instant, countless arrows shot towards the enemies under the city wall like locusts.

However, the enemies seemed to be prepared. They raised their shields and blocked the arrows.

Arrows rained down like raindrops, but failed to stop the enemy.

They continued to climb, and some even succeeded in scaling the wall.

Once these enemies climbed onto the city wall, they pounced on the Ming soldiers like mad dogs.

Their scimitars were waving in the air, and blood and flesh flew wherever they went.

"kill!"

The Ming army soldiers roared, waving their spears and swords, and fought a desperate battle with the enemy.

Every soldier knew that this battle concerned his own fate and they must not retreat.

The battle on the city wall was extremely fierce, and the Ming army soldiers fought bravely without fear.

Their spears were like dragons emerging from the sea, piercing the enemy's chest; their swords were like lightning that cut through the night sky, slashing at the enemy's neck.

Every soldier tried his best, because they knew that only by killing the enemy could they protect their homes and loved ones.

However, the number of enemies was too great. They seemed endless, and they poured towards the city walls in wave after wave.

Although the Ming army soldiers were brave and fearless, they were ultimately no match for four hands.

They began to feel tired and their movements gradually became slower.

"Brothers, hold on! If they break through the city wall, we will be dead! Kill!"

The commander on the city wall shouted loudly.

He knew very well that morale was crucial at this moment.

If they were to back down, death would be waiting for them. In the Ming Dynasty, there were only soldiers who died in battle, no surrendering soldiers.

However, Chagatai Khan's army did not seem to intend to give them this opportunity.

They sped up their climbing, and some even began to use ropes and other tools to help their companions climb the city wall.

The Ming army soldiers faced unprecedented pressure and began to feel overwhelmed.

"Assholes! Damn it, I'll fight you, brothers, kill them!"

A Ming army soldier shouted loudly.

His voice echoed in the night sky, like an invisible force, inspiring every soldier.

They all cheered up and threw themselves into the battle again.

At this moment, every soldier on the city wall seemed to have turned into a god of war. They waved their weapons and fought the enemy more fiercely.

Their eyes were full of determination and resoluteness, as if they were willing to use their lives to let the enemy know the strengths and weaknesses of the Ming soldiers.

However, the cruelty on the battlefield was far beyond their imagination.

The enemy's scimitar was like the god of death's scythe, constantly reaping the lives of Ming army soldiers.

The corpses piled up like a mountain on the city wall, and the blood dyed the entire wall red. The air was filled with the pungent smell of blood and death, making people feel suffocated.

"I can't die! I still have to go home. I can't die."

A young Ming army soldier said this silently in his heart. He tightly grasped the spear in his hand and fought a desperate battle with the enemy.

He had multiple injuries on his body, but he still gritted his teeth and persisted, refusing to give up.

Under his leadership, more Ming army soldiers began to cheer up.

They took up arms and launched the final decisive battle with the enemy.

Their hearts were filled with anger and hatred, and these emotions transformed into infinite power, making them braver and stronger.

Chagatai Khan's army began to feel the pinch.

They originally thought that they could easily capture this isolated city, but they did not expect that the Ming army soldiers would be so tenacious and brave.

Their offensive began to slow down, and some people even began to retreat.

"Kill! Kill them all!"

The commander of Chagatai Khan's army roared.

He waved the scimitar in his hand and personally led the soldiers to rush towards the city wall.

His eyes were filled with madness and desire to kill, as if he wanted to kill all the Ming army soldiers.

However, the Ming army soldiers at this time were no longer afraid.

They stood up one after another and launched the final decisive battle with the enemy.

The battle on the city wall once again entered a white-hot stage.

The Ming army soldiers waved their weapons and fought fiercely with the enemy.

Their bodies were covered in blood and mud, but their eyes were still full of determination and resoluteness.

………………

Zhu Chong's place!
He had just finished dealing with some matters and was about to go to sleep when he heard an urgent knock on the door.

"Come in!"

"Your Highness, something bad has happened. The enemy is attacking at night!"

"what?"

Zhu Chong's face changed drastically.

"Go! Damn it!"

Zhu Chong immediately picked up his weapon and left.

Soon they arrived at the city wall and saw that a fierce fighting was going on there.

"You bastard, take your men and guard the city gate. Don't let them take advantage of the situation. If the city gate is lost, you will be held responsible."

"Yes!"

A general immediately took his men to guard the city gate.

"Everyone else, follow me and kill the enemy. Kill!"

Zhu Chong drew his sword and rushed towards the city gate first, followed closely by his soldiers.

The night was as dark as ink, and the battlefield was filled with the flashing of swords and the shadow of sabers. A battle of life and death was taking place every second.

Zhu Chong led the troops, his sword flashing like a dragon, and enemies fell down wherever he passed.

His swordsmanship was fast and accurate, and each strike was aimed directly at the vital points, leaving the enemy no chance to breathe.

Under his leadership, the Ming army soldiers also fought bravely. Amidst the flashing of swords and shadows, enemies kept falling, but more enemies came like a tide.

On the battlefield, screams, roars, and the sounds of weapons clashing intertwined together to form a tragic war song.

The scimitars of Chagatai Khan's army flashed coldly in the sunlight. They were also extremely ferocious, constantly waving their scimitars in an attempt to break through the Ming army's defense line.

But the Ming army soldiers were not afraid. They used their flesh and blood to build an indestructible line of defense.

Zhu Chong was like a flash of lightning on the battlefield. His figure shuttled among the enemies, and no one could stop him wherever his sword went.

His bravery inspired every soldier of the Ming army, and they all followed Zhu Chong's example, fighting bravely and never retreating.

With the joining of Zhu Chong, the morale of the Ming army was obviously greatly boosted and became more brave.

The enemies who rushed up fell one by one!

The battle did not end until dawn. Relying on its strong willpower, the Ming army managed to block the attack of the Chagatai Khanate.

However, the price paid was also very high, and the sky was turning pale.

At this time, the city walls were littered with broken limbs and human internal organs, and the corpses were piled up so high that there was almost no place to step.

The entire city wall was stained with blood, as if it was coated with a layer of red coating.

The whole battlefield was quite tragic!

"Your Highness, are you okay?"

The deputy general came to Zhu Chong and hurriedly checked whether Zhu Chong was injured.

Zhu Chong pushed him away: "It's okay, it's not a big deal, just some flesh wounds." "How are our casualties?"

"Your Highness, after this battle, there are less than 5,000 men left to fight."

"If the imperial court's reinforcements don't arrive, and the enemy launches a large-scale attack, we may not be able to hold on."

The deputy general said worriedly.

Hearing this, Zhu Chong felt sad. Now the city was surrounded by a hundred thousand troops and no one could get in or out.

If they really launched a large-scale attack, they might not last more than a day.

Now they are in danger!
"I understand, you go down first!"

"Yes!"

The deputy general glanced at Zhu Chong, turned and left, but before he had gone far, Zhu Chong called him back.

"Your Highness!"

"Take all your equipment to the city wall. I have a feeling they will launch a large-scale offensive soon."

"Yes!"

"Also, tear down all the houses of the people in the city and bring all their belongings to the top of the city walls."

"Your Highness, this... this is not good, right?"

"The people will..."

The deputy general wanted to say something but was interrupted by Zhu Chong.

"Tell them that if the city is captured, no one will survive and their wives and daughters will be raped."

"The house has been demolished. I will build him a better one in the future. I will repel the enemy first."

"Yes!"

"Oh, and call all the adult men to the top of the city to defend against the enemy."

"Only in this way can we hold out until reinforcements arrive, otherwise everyone will die."

"Only with unity can we have a chance to survive. Go!"

"Yes!"

The deputy general hurried down to make arrangements!

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

noon!

The sun is shining!

Huerta led the army to the city!
"Listen up, people above, let your King Qin come out and answer!"

An enemy general came to the city and said arrogantly.

Zhu Chong poked his head out, looked at the people below, and said in a cold voice: "I am Zhu Chong, what do you have to say?"

"Your Highness, Prince Qin, you are now surrounded by us. There is no possibility of escape."

"Why not open the city gates? Our Khan has said that we will ensure your highness' safety."

"Hehehe...haha..."

Zhu Chong burst into laughter when he heard this.

"Are you trying to make me surrender?"

"Why don't you ask when the Ming Dynasty had a prince surrender?"

"Isn't this a disgrace to the Ming Dynasty?"

"Even if the king agrees, my brothers will not agree."

"Your Highness, Prince Qin, if you don't think about yourself, you should think about your soldiers. Do you want to drag them to death with you?"

"Have you ever thought that they don't want to die, they also have wives and children."

"With so many people, are you so selfish?"

Hearing this, Zhu Chong frowned, thinking that this bastard was trying to shake his military morale.

"Shut up!"

"Damn it, if you want us to surrender, forget it. The Ming Dynasty only has soldiers who died in battle, and they have never known what surrender is."

"Isn't that right, brothers!"

"Correct!"

The deputy general's roar received support from all the soldiers.

When the enemy general saw the Ming army's behavior, he looked somewhat displeased. It seemed that it was impossible to persuade them to surrender.

"Okay, okay! Very good!"

"Then you will die!"

"When the city is broken, everything will be destroyed!"

After saying that, he rode away immediately!

"Get ready, they're about to attack!"

"Yes!"

"Ready to fight!"

At the deputy general's command, everyone was ready for battle.

Not long!
The horn sounded and the enemy began to attack!
As the trumpets sounded passionately, the army of the Chagatai Khanate came rushing in like a tide, raising dust that covered half the sky, and the sound of war drums was deafening.

On the city wall of Pinghua City, the Ming army soldiers gripped their weapons tightly, with an unyielding light flashing in their eyes.

The soldiers of the Chagatai Khanate, dressed in iron armor, riding tall horses and holding sharp scimitars, charged towards the city walls in wave after wave.

Their numbers were huge, seemingly endless, and every charge was accompanied by earth-shaking shouts, trying to crush the will of the Ming army with their absolute numerical advantage.

"Fire arrows!"

The deputy general's voice echoed on the city wall, and along with his order, rows of archers quickly adjusted their posture and aimed at the approaching enemy.

Arrows pierced the sky with a whistling sound and accurately penetrated into the enemy army, causing them to fall down in an instant.

However, the soldiers of the Chagatai Khanate seemed tireless and continued to charge forward one after another. They had only one goal - to capture Pinghua City and conquer this land.

On the city wall, the Ming army soldiers constantly adjusted their defense strategies. They took advantage of the height of the city wall to pour down heavy defense equipment such as boulders and wooden beams. Every impact was accompanied by the enemy's wails and screams.

But these efforts seemed unable to completely stop the enemy. The soldiers of the Chagatai Khanate still advanced tenaciously, and their numerical advantage was fully demonstrated at this moment.

"Brothers, hold on!"

Zhu Chong stood at the highest point of the city wall. His voice was firm and powerful, penetrating the noise on the battlefield and reaching the hearts of every Ming army soldier.

As time went on, the battle became more intense. The Ming soldiers on the city wall were already exhausted, but there was still no intention of retreat in their eyes.

They knew that once the city walls were breached, endless massacre and destruction would await them.

The soldiers of the Chagatai Khanate seemed to have also felt the tenacity of the Ming army. They used equipment such as ladders and siege vehicles to climb the city walls.

On the city wall, the Ming army soldiers engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the enemy. They brandished their weapons and fought a desperate battle with the enemy.

Every confrontation was accompanied by the sound of metal colliding and flesh tearing, and the entire battlefield was filled with a strong smell of blood.

"Kill!"

Zhu Chong personally went into battle, holding a long sword, and rushed into the enemy group, invincible.

His bravery and fearlessness inspired every Ming army soldier, who followed suit and fought more fiercely with the enemy.

On the city wall, the figures of the Ming army soldiers shone with golden light in the afterglow of the setting sun, as if they had become the most dazzling heroes on the battlefield.

However, the soldiers of the Chagatai Khanate continued to pour in, and their numbers seemed endless.

The physical strength of the Ming army soldiers was gradually exhausted, and flaws began to appear in their defense line.

At this moment, a small group of enemy troops successfully climbed up the city wall. They waved their weapons and launched a fierce attack on the Ming army.

"No! Stop them!"

The deputy general was shocked when he saw this, and he immediately ordered his soldiers to counterattack the enemy squad.

After a fierce battle, the Ming army finally repelled this enemy group, but it also made them pay a heavy price.
