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

"Your Majesty, I second the proposal!"

"I second the proposal!"

"I second the proposal!"

Civil and military officials all agreed, and no one objected.

"If that's the case, then send a message to the King of Qin and the Crown Prince, ordering them to capture the Chagatai Khanate without any mistakes."

"Your Majesty is wise!"

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

Chagatai Khanate!
In the royal court!
When the news of Huerta's defeat and the annihilation of his entire army was reported back to the royal court, the whole country was in a panic.

At this time, the atmosphere in the big tent was very depressing, and everyone looked sad.

"Everyone, now that the Khan has been captured by the Ming Dynasty and is imprisoned, you are all the backbone of the royal court."

"How should we respond to this critical moment of life and death?"

A woman sitting in the main seat spoke slowly.

She is Hurta's wife, Surido. Now the Chagatai Khanate is leaderless and urgently needs someone to take charge of the situation.

And Surido, as Huerta's legal wife, was pushed up.

"Khatun (the wife of the Khan of ancient nomadic tribes, generally called "Khatun" by the people below.) I think the Ming Dynasty has captured the Khan, and they will definitely not let him come back easily."

"Even if they want to release it, they won't do it in a short time. They will definitely want something from us, but we don't know what it is."

"go on!"

Surido spoke!

"Since they won't send the Khan back anytime soon, we must elect someone to take charge."

"As the saying goes, a country cannot be without a ruler for a day. We must have someone to take charge of the situation and lead us to attack the Ming Dynasty and rescue the Khan!"

Once this was said, everyone agreed.

"Alitai's words make sense. We must elect someone to take charge of the situation."

"Who should I choose then?"

"The Khan has more than one son!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere immediately exploded. Some suggested choosing the eldest son, some chose the second son, and some chose the third son.

Everyone has their own reasons, who knows?

"Everyone be quiet!"

"How can this be so?"

Surido looked at them arguing and shouted loudly, and everyone suddenly quieted down.

Huerta had three sons when they grew up. All three of them showed extraordinary abilities and each one was a good person.

"You can make a quarrel by arguing like this?"

"Khatun, the eldest prince is the eldest son of the Khan and has outstanding abilities. When the Khan was in power, he often let him handle state affairs."

"It is in accordance with etiquette and law, both in public and private, and in terms of emotion and reason."

At this time, a minister stood up and spoke.

"That's wrong. The Second Prince is not bad either. He is also the Khan's legitimate son, and his abilities are no less than the First Prince's."

"that is!"

"The Third Prince isn't bad, is he?"

"..."

Suddenly, the quarrel started again, and Surido, who was sitting on the main seat, suddenly turned gloomy.

"Shut up, everyone!"

With a loud shout, everyone suddenly quieted down.

"Everyone thinks what they say is reasonable. The stalemate continues, and the Ming Dynasty's grandson Zhu Xiongying is eyeing the border covetously."

"If this continues, I'm afraid we will follow the footsteps of the grasslands. Our Khan has always been the most capable one."

"Since all three princes are candidates, let them compete. Whoever wins will be the Khan."

"What do you think?"

After Surido said this, everyone nodded in agreement, indicating that they had no objection.

"In that case, it's settled!"

"Pass the order down. A competition will be held in three days. A kurultai will be held in seven days, and a ceremony to inaugurate the Great Khan will be held."

"Yes!"

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

On the border!
Ming army camp!

Inside Zhu Xiongying’s tent!
"Your Highness!"

Yuan Tiangang suddenly appeared beside Zhu Xiongying.

"Is there news?"

Yuan Tiangang nodded.

"Talk about it!"

"They hold a general election in three days and three people are elected."

"Oh?"

"Interesting, with such a short time, I'm afraid there won't be much chaos!"

After all, it is impossible to make a good plan in such a short time.

"Do you think they can mess up?"

"Disaster!"

"There are a lot of people at their conference. It's obviously impossible to suppress them by any means."

"Just some small moves!"

Hearing this, Zhu Xiongying frowned slightly.

"It seems that there are still capable people on the other side!"

"Who is in charge now?"

"It's Sulido, Hurta's wife."

"Surido?"

"Exactly!"

Yuan Tiangang nodded.

"She knows we will definitely attack them, so she wants to end the battle as quickly as possible!"

"Only when the political situation is stable can they focus on dealing with us. This woman is not simple."

"That's fine!"

"In this case, it will be useless even if we try to stop it."

"Then take this opportunity and take action!"

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

next day!

Inside the central military tent!

Zhu Xiongying stood up and looked at everyone, then said, "Everyone, they are going to hold an election meeting in three days."

"We don't have much time!"

"So fast?"

Everyone was a little surprised!
"It seems that some of them are not simple!"

"So...we have to take action too."

"Take advantage of their unstable political situation and catch them off guard."

"It would be best if we could catch them all at once when they hold the kurultai."

Hearing this, everyone looked at Zhu Xiongying in surprise.

"Your Highness, I'm afraid these few days won't be enough?"

"We don't even know where their royal court is right now. Even if we knew, they must be hiding deep inside. It would take us several days to find them, right?"

"This... there's no time!"

Li Jinglong stood up and spoke.

"So I have to leave now. Time is short and the task is heavy."

"what?"

"No!"

"Your Highness, you must not do that!"

Hearing this, everyone became anxious. What's the difference between going deep behind enemy lines and seeking death?
"Only in this way can we completely defeat them, otherwise they will just come back to life again."

"That being said, it's too dangerous!"

"Yes! Your Highness, this is too dangerous. If anything happens to you, how can we explain it to His Majesty and the Crown Prince?"

"No, no, it can't be solved."

Everyone waved their hands and refused to let Zhu Xiongying go no matter what.

"Brother, let me go!"

"Oh! Your Highness, Prince Wu, please don't join in the fun."

"Once you are there, we can explain this to His Majesty and the Crown Prince?"

“No, no, no…” The generals immediately waved their hands to refuse. What’s the difference between Zhu Yunhuan going and Zhu Xiongying going?
If something happens, everyone will die!
"Xiong Ying, that's going deep into the enemy's interior. It's too dangerous."

"Forget it. Even if we can't catch them all, at least we can cripple them!"

Zhu Chong stood up and spoke, and everyone agreed with his words, nodding in agreement.

"What are you afraid of?"

"I've been to the grassland before, but they couldn't do anything to me. I'm still alive and well now."

"But……"

"But what?"

"Ok, deal!"

"I'll take the bad guys with me!"

"You guys attack head-on, I'll lead my men straight to their kurultai. If you guys are fast by then, I'll give you positions, so you can also experience the feeling of being Huo Qubing."

"But if you guys can't make it in time, you can't blame me. I'll have it all to myself."

The others wanted to say something but were interrupted by Zhu Xiongying.

"Ok, deal!"

"If any of you dare to oppose and stop me, when I become emperor, I will send you all to the frontier one by one."

"Uncle, you are no exception!"

After saying that, he turned and left!
Leaving everyone confused!

Everyone looked at Zhu Chong.

"What are you looking at me doing?"

"He is the crown prince, and I have to listen to him."

Helplessly, he turned and looked at Zhu Yunhuan.

"What are you looking at me for?"

"He is the crown prince, I am the prince, he is the eldest brother, I am the younger brother, I have to listen to him in public and private."

After saying that, he stood up and ran out!

"Don't even look at it, let's get the army moving!"

"If it's too late, we won't even be able to eat meat!"

Zhu Chong on the side spoke up.

Everyone immediately took action!

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

"Brother, brother, wait a minute!"

Zhu Xiongying was about to set off when he heard Zhu Yunhuan's voice. He turned around and saw Zhu Yunhuan running towards him at an extremely fast speed.

"what happened?"

"Hehe...Brother, are we brothers?"

"Yes!"

Zhu Xiongying nodded.

"Then take me with you!"

"Yun-hyun!"

"I'd really like to take you with me, but I'm afraid my second uncle wouldn't want to."

"Ok?"

Zhu Yunhuan looked at Zhu Xiongying in confusion, but before he could say anything, Zhu Chong arrived.

"Yunxun, come back with me!"

"Second uncle, what are you doing?"

"I want to go with my brother!"

"Going to what?"

"Come with me!"

"I do not want!"

Zhu Yunhuan quickly refused.

"Hey? Come back with me, kid!"

As he said this, he grabbed Zhu Yunhuan's ear and took him away. Seeing this, Zhu Xiongying smiled and led his men out of the camp.

Zhu Xiongying is the crown prince, so Zhu Chong cannot do anything about it, but Zhu Yunhuan is not like that.

They are both princes, but Zhu Chong is his uncle. If he can’t punish Zhu Xiongying, how can he punish Zhu Yunhuan?

After all, if the main force was missing a powerful general like Zhu Yunhuan, the speed of advancement would be greatly reduced.

Then we really won’t be able to eat meat.

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

On the border between the two countries!
The armies of both sides held a confrontation!

Yellow sand filled the sky and battle flags fluttered.

The Ming army camp was covered with iron armor, and the soldiers were holding spears and swords, with sharp eyes, ready for battle.

Chagatai's army not far away was equally aggressive.

They rode tall horses, held scimitars in their hands, carried bows and arrows on their backs, and had a strong build.

The sound of horse hooves and the neighing of war horses intertwined together, forming a powerful sense of oppression, as if it was going to swallow up the world.

The two armies were facing each other, with an open area in the middle, as if it was the stage specially reserved by nature for the upcoming war.

The air was filled with tension, as if even the wind had stopped breathing, waiting for the war to break out.

The generals of the Ming army stood in front of the formation, their eyes as sharp as lightning, scanning the enemy troops opposite.

Without any nonsense, the opposing commander directly ordered an attack on the Ming army, and Chagatai cavalry rushed towards the Ming army at lightning speed.

The beating of the war drums was as deafening as thunder, and it seemed that this heart-stirring sound was the only thing left in the world.

Chagatai's army was like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins, sweeping in like a hurricane. The sounds of horse hooves and shouts of killing intertwined into one, as if turning this empty area into a living hell in an instant.

In the Ming army camp, the battle flags were still fluttering, but they seemed more resilient amid the strong wind and the shouts of killing.

The soldiers tightly grasped their spears and swords, without any fear or retreat in their eyes, only the desire for victory and military merit.

Chagatai cavalry came like a tide, their scimitars flashing coldly in the sun, as if each one was enough to cut off the fragility of life.

They brandished scimitars and, accompanied by the galloping of their horses, launched a fierce charge towards the Ming army camp.

The air was filled with the smell of blood, which was the prelude to battle and the foreshadowing of death.

The Ming army soldiers did not retreat. They lined up in neat rows with their spears like a forest, forming an indestructible line of defense.

Then a rain of arrows poured down from the sky.

shhhhhh...

Countless arrows flew towards them in a dense stream like hail.

Chagatai's soldiers' bodies were pierced by arrows, and blood spurted out, dyeing the soil red.

But soon, they paid with their lives for more arrows.

Blood flowed from their wounds and gathered in the muddy ground, forming a small puddle.

“Pfft, pfft!”

One by one, Chagatai soldiers fell in a pool of blood, with ferocious expressions on their faces, as if they had lost their lives before they could even react.

War is so cruel.

Either you die or I live.

Chagatai's soldiers rushed forward with all their last strength, as if they knew no fatigue and disregarded the danger to their lives.

However, the Ming army's tactic was to wait for the enemy to tire themselves out. When Chagatai's soldiers rushed forward, they were already prepared.

When Chagatai's cavalry rushed forward, the Ming soldiers shouted in unison and thrust out the spears in their hands like angry dragons.

The spear and scimitar collided in the air, making a crisp sound of metal hitting each other and sparks flying.

The battle instantly became intense, and soldiers on both sides were blood-thirsty.

The hooves of Chagatai's cavalry trampled the bodies of the Ming soldiers, while the Ming soldiers used their flesh and blood to build a barrier of life.

Amid the flash of swords and the shadow of sabers, life is like fragile grass, being ruthlessly harvested.

The Ming army's archers stood behind the formation, aiming at the gaps in Chagatai's cavalry and continuously shooting arrows.

The arrows were like dense raindrops, cutting through the sky and shooting into the enemy army.

Chagatai's cavalry were shot by arrows and fell off their horses one after another, but their charge did not slow down, but became even more frantic.

There is no mercy or sympathy on this cruel battlefield.

There is only a contest between life and death, only a choice between victory and defeat.

The battlefield was filled with flashing swords, blood flying everywhere, and corpses being thrown everywhere.

Many bodies fell into the deep ditch, and after rolling a few times, there was no sound anymore.

The blood dyed the land red, and the corpses were spread all over the ground.

In a world of blood and fire, war is an eternal melody and something that mankind must endure.

It's not just blood and fire, it's also brutal killing and destruction.

The Chagatai people rode on horseback as if they were walking on flat ground. Even when the Ming army shot arrows at them, some of them were still able to easily dodge them.

Many Chagatai soldiers jumped up with scimitars in their hands, waving their scimitars and slashing at the Ming soldiers.

One by one, the Ming soldiers were hacked to pieces, their bodies cut in half, blood splattering. (End of this chapter)
