Ming Dynasty: Pick up attributes from the battlefield to create the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 144: A tremendous achievement! Zhu Di: This boy must be one of us, or he must be eliminated!

But for Zhu Di.

At this moment, his heart was full of complexities.

Zhu Di stared closely at the city gate in the distance where a fierce battle was going on, in front of the city.

His gaze seemed to be able to penetrate layers of troops and fixate on the brave and unparalleled figure in the city.

Zhu Di's face was solemn, and he murmured in his heart: "Zhu Ying, you are not an ordinary person!"

"With such bravery, even compared to the mighty and powerful King of Western Chu, he is probably no less powerful, or even more so."

"The city gate is strong and the walls are thick. It is impossible to break it open without human power!"

"But he broke it easily."

"Is he really a mortal?"

Thinking of this, Zhu Di frowned unconsciously, and the uneasiness in his heart grew wildly.

He subconsciously clenched his fists, and a picture emerged involuntarily in his mind: on the battlefield of the future, he would meet Zhu Ying in battle, Zhu Ying's devil-like figure would gallop across the battlefield, and none of his soldiers could withstand his edge, and they fell one after another.

……

Thinking of this, Zhu Di felt a chill running from the soles of his feet up his spine, making him feel a little cold in his heart.

For him, Zhu Di knew clearly that Zhu Ying's performance on the battlefield was amazing and his combat power was extraordinary. He was definitely a truly unparalleled general.

For the Ming Empire, having a powerful general like Zhu Ying is undoubtedly an indestructible barrier, enough to terrify foreign enemies and become a powerful deterrent that can shock all directions.

If Zhu Di did not have those ulterior motives hidden deep in his heart, he might have simply expressed pure admiration for Zhu Ying's bravery like an ordinary general and would not have thought about anything else.

But the reality is!
Over the years, Yao Guangxiao's devilish provocative words had already planted the seeds of ambition in Zhu Di's heart.

As time went by, the seed took root, sprouted, and grew vigorously, causing Zhu Di to have thoughts that he should not have had in his heart, and he wanted to covet the supreme throne.

Because of this, when he thought that Zhu Ying might very likely become an obstacle on his way to the top in the future, an irrepressible fear welled up in his heart.

He knew very well that Zhu Ying was a very brave man and that he was not someone who could be easily dealt with.

"anyway,"

Zhu Di's eyes flashed with ruthlessness, and he thought to himself, "If Zhu Ying cannot be used by me, then I must not let him reach the highest position in the government."

"Otherwise, in the long run, he will definitely be my most powerful enemy, capable of destroying everything I have painstakingly built in an instant."

"Even if it means destroying him, he must not be allowed to continue."

As he thought about it, the fierceness in his eyes turned into an imperceptible murderous intent.

……

At this moment, the situation on the battlefield became increasingly tense.

The biting cold wind mixed with endless shouts and cries raged between heaven and earth, blowing up sand and dust on the ground, adding a bit of murderous atmosphere to this cruel war.

The offensive of the Daning border army is continuing in an orderly manner.

Under the leadership of Zhang Wu, the 30,000 Daning infantry troops advanced towards Zhenxia City like a black torrent.

They were dressed in heavy armor and advanced step by step.

soon.

Tens of thousands of archers approached the city gate like a tide.

On the city wall.

Inside the city.

It has already entered the range of the Daning archers.

"Bros!"

Zhuang Wei, the deputy commander of the archery corps, shouted with all his might, "Shoot! Shoot these damned Tartars to death!"

"Kill, kill, kill!"

Thousands of archers roared in unison, and the sounds gathered together to form a powerful wave of sound that soared into the sky.

They all drew their bows and arrows with skillful and swift movements. The bowstrings were pulled to the full moon, and the arrows flashed coldly in the sunlight.

Then, they all let go, and the sharp arrows shot out indiscriminately towards the city walls and the city like a flock of birds out of a cage, covering the sky and blocking the sun.

For a moment, the air was filled with the rustling sound of sharp arrows flying through the air, as if there was a continuous rain of arrows.

of course.

Under a volley of arrows.

The archers naturally and cleverly avoided the city gate.

after all.

At this moment, cavalrymen have already rushed into the city and are engaged in a fierce battle with the Yuan army. They know very well that they must not accidentally hurt their comrades due to momentary negligence.

The attack has just begun. Even if some cavalry successfully rush into the city, they are still fighting with all their might and cannot penetrate deep into the enemy's hinterland.

These archers had followed Zhu Ying for a long time. Through countless battles, they had become familiar with Zhu Ying's tactics and knew exactly when to shoot and when not to shoot.

Thousands of arrows were fired outside the city. Under the dense barrage of arrows, the breath of death spread and murderous intent was evident.

Many Yuan soldiers on the city walls were ruthlessly pierced by sharp arrows before they could react.

"Ah...ah..."

"The Ming army archers are coming."

"Quick...quickly release the arrow..."

Countless Yuan soldiers screamed in agony, and some fell directly from the towering city walls like kites with broken strings.

Many Yuan soldiers in the city were also caught off guard and were pierced through the bodies by the arrows that rained down from the sky.

Many Yuan soldiers opened their eyes wide, their eyes full of fear and unwillingness. Before they could put up any resistance, they fell in a pool of cold blood. The blood quickly spread on the ground, dyeing the ground a shocking red.

With the addition of the Daning archers, and the cooperation of the Daning cavalry who had already attacked the city, the Ming army's offensive became even more powerful and unstoppable, and they fell into a frenzy of killing.

"Kill, kill!"

"Kill all the Tartars."

"Recover the country."

"Kill..." The Daning cavalrymen rode their war horses and charged through the city, waving their long swords with flashing cold light. Wherever they went, the Yuan army fell down and screamed.

The shouts of the Daning soldiers and the sounds of weapons clashing intertwined and resounded throughout the battlefield, like a passionate and tragic war song.

The appearance of the Daning archers and their mad shooting of arrows successfully suppressed the Yuan army archers who had originally had the advantage on the city wall.

The two sides continued to shoot at each other.

Although the Daning archers outside the city did not have the natural advantage of being high above the city, and faced with the increasing casualties from the rain of arrows fired by the Yuan army on the city wall, they did not show any fear.

They pulled their bows and shot arrows frantically, using all their strength every time, as if they wanted to pour all their hatred for the Yuan army into those sharp arrows, vowing to shoot all the Yuan army to death.

The 20,000 infantry vanguards carried heavy ladders and attacked the city wall like a torrent.

Since ancient times, siege battles have mostly been fought with infantry leading the way and cavalry following behind.

however.

Here in the Da Ning border army led by Zhu Ying, all the rules seemed to be broken and the tactics were completely reversed.

"Climb the city."

"kill!"

As the ladders were placed steadily on the city wall, many Ming soldiers, with swords tightly in their mouths and determination and fearlessness on their faces, climbed up the city wall with difficulty but determination under the full cover of the archers.

They used their hands and feet to climb at an extremely fast speed, determined to fight the Yuan army to the death.

Inside the city.

The most brutal hand-to-hand combat is still going on cruelly.

As Zhu Ying's personal guards charged bravely, the place where the city gate was located instantly turned into a hell on earth.

The corpses of the Yuan army fell one after another, piling up like mountains, and blood flowed, gathering into rivers of blood, emitting a disgusting fishy smell.

Zhu Ying, who was charging in the front, looked like a killing god from hell, emitting a terrifying aura.

Zhu Ying swung the sword in his hand wildly. Every swing carried a thousand pounds of force. In the flash of cold light, it would take away the lives of several Yuan soldiers.

In this chaotic army, ordinary fighting methods had long lost their meaning. Zhu Ying relied solely on his astonishingly powerful strength to slash madly. Wherever he went, no one could withstand the power of his extremely sharp blade.

"Kill the Northern Yuan soldiers, pick up 1 point of strength, pick up 10 days of life."

"Kill the Northern Yuan soldiers, pick up 1 point of internal energy, pick up 10 days of life."

"Kill the Northern Yuan soldiers and gain 1 point of speed..."

"Congratulations to the host for killing 6000 enemies. You will be rewarded with a [First-Level Treasure Chest]."

Prompts kept appearing on the panel in Zhu Ying's mind.

"The total number of enemies killed actually exceeded six thousand."

Zhu Ying thought to himself, with a sneer on his face: "Very good!"

"In this battle today, I must break through at least 7,000 people."

"The Yuan army in the city, today, I, Zhu Ying, will slaughter them endlessly!"

Thinking of this, Zhu Ying shook the sword stained with endless blood violently, and blood rain fell, and he swung it again.

"Bros!"

Zhu Ying roared, his inner energy strengthened, his voice like thunder, shaking the air around him and revealing endless murderous intent.
"Kill all the Tartars! Leave no one alive! Kill them!"

The sword swept and chopped wildly, and every movement was full of power and murderous intent.

Wu Feng seemed to be in tune with Zhu Ying's thoughts, and he advanced forward on his own without Zhu Ying's control.

Wherever Zhu Ying passed, it was as if swept by the scythe of the god of death, and in an instant there was a tragic scene of mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

He completely transformed into a killing machine, slaughtering the Yuan army crazily.

Any Yuan army soldier who came within ten feet of Zhu Yingzhou would, without exception, die.

In front of Zhu Ying's powerful strength, they were like fragile ants and could not withstand a single blow.

"monster!"

"He's a monster!"

"He is invulnerable to swords and guns. We can't hurt him at all!"

"He is not human..."

The surrounding Yuan troops were forced to charge forward by the supervising troops holding sharp blades, in an attempt to stop the Ming army from entering the city.

But when they looked at Zhu Ying, who looked like the Shura Demon God in front of them, they all had expressions of horror on their faces, and their eyes were filled with deep fear.

but.

Even though they knew that approaching Zhu Ying would mean embarking on the road to the underworld, under the pressure of the supervising army, they had no choice. Because they knew that if they did not advance and fight, they would also die, and die a more miserable death.

"The whole army rushes to kill!"

The Yuan general on duty at the foot of the city had a ferocious look on his face and roared loudly, his voice almost hoarse: "We must not let the Ming army break through the defense line! If one man dies, it will cost ten men!"

"Ten men killed in battle are worth a hundred!"

"Once the city is breached, everyone will die! Charge on!"

The Yuan general roared and waved the blood-stained long sword in his hand, frantically supervising the battle at the rear of the team.

But even though he shouted at the top of his lungs, his own feet seemed to be nailed down, and he kept retreating involuntarily, always letting his soldiers rush to the front to resist the attack of the Ming army for him.

"kill."

"Fight the Ming army."

"Kill..."

Under his intimidation, the Yuan army soldiers, although filled with fear, had no choice but to rush forward and kill Zhu Ying and the guards behind him.

They let out desperate and shrill cries, waving their weapons wildly, trying to find a glimmer of hope in this doomed situation.

The bloody battle continued and became more intense.

Zhu Ying seemed tireless, slashing wildly and chopping the enemies madly without any regard, maintaining an extremely terrifying killing speed.

Compared with the killing power of his personal guards, Zhu Ying's killing power is not inferior at all, and is even stronger.

Every time he slashed, blood was drawn and every time he slashed, he was deadly and extremely precise.

Zhu Ying, relying solely on his own strength, drove the seemingly endless Yuan army in front of him into retreat. His guards, well-trained, followed their general closely, expanding their killing spree around Zhu Ying.

They cooperated with each other tacitly, like a closely connected fighting entity. Every movement and every attack was just right, showing their well-trained state.

Where the city gate is located, the first street and the second street are being gradually cleared by the Ming army.

The corpses of Yuan soldiers were scattered all over the ground, and pools of blood spread on the ground like a red ocean.

Whether it was the living Yuan army or the corpses of the Yuan army on the ground, none of this could stop the momentum of the Ming army's attack.

At the city gate, more and more Daning cavalry poured in like a tide.

Their war horses neighed, and their hooves raised clouds of dust, injecting new vitality into the battle. They were the fresh force on the battlefield.

On the city floor.

At the same time, more Daning infantrymen successfully climbed onto the city wall and engaged in a close-range life-and-death battle with the Yuan army on the wall.

They wrestled with each other, slashing with knives, punching with fists, biting with teeth, desperate to kill the enemy.

The scene was so tragic that it was unbearable to watch.

"Can't retreat!"

Looking at the army in front of him, which was almost killed to pieces and about to collapse, the Yuan general was extremely anxious. He roared at the top of his lungs again, trying his best to maintain order in the army.

"Fight to the death! No retreat possible!"

"Supervisory troops, advance!"

"Anyone who retreats will be killed immediately!"

General Yuan's voice had become extremely hoarse and almost inaudible, but he was still shouting desperately, full of anxiety and despair, as if this could save the situation.

"You're the one who screams the loudest."

Zhu Ying's eyes focused and instantly locked onto the Yuan general who was roaring madly.

He sat on his warhorse, looking far away. Without any hesitation, Zhu Ying suddenly raised his left hand, and a spear instantly appeared in his hand, which was obviously summoned from his storage space.

Zhu Ying's storage space was filled with a variety of supplies. Not only was there a large amount of food and wine, enough to sustain his army for a while, but he even had a large stockpile of weapons. Even if his army was unfortunately trapped, Zhu Ying was confident that he could keep them alive for half a month, buying time for reinforcements to arrive.

"Die!"

Zhu Ying exerted force with his left hand, strengthened his internal energy, and threw the spear fiercely towards the Yuan general.

A powerful force was wielded.

Whoosh!
The spear cut through the air, making a sharp sound, like a bolt of thunder, bursting out in an instant, carrying the power to destroy everything.

"Ah...ah..."

puff.

puff.

The spear, empowered by Zhu Ying's powerful inner energy and carrying an unstoppable force, instantly penetrated the bodies of several Yuan soldiers.

Even though these Yuan soldiers were wearing sturdy armor, they were like paper and could not withstand the sharpness of the spears at all.

In almost the blink of an eye, the Yuan general, who was still roaring and screaming madly, had no chance to react at all.

boom!
His entire body was pierced directly by the spear. The huge force of the spear sent him flying backwards, and several Yuan soldiers behind him were also pierced through. They were like candied haws on a bamboo stick. The scene was extremely tragic.

"How...how could it be?"

General Yuan looked down at the spear that pierced his body. Severe pain instantly swept through his body, distorting his face.

But as his vitality quickly faded, the pain soon became numb. His eyes were filled with horror and disbelief, as if he could not believe until his death that he could be killed so easily by Zhu Ying.

Together with several of his personal guards, he fell into the endless abyss of hell.

"Kill the Northern Yuan soldiers, pick up 1 point of physical fitness, pick up 10 days of life."

"Kill the Northern Yuan soldiers, pick up 1 point of strength, pick up 15 days of life."

"Kill the Northern Yuan soldiers..."

"Kill the Northern Yuan captain, pick up 50 points of all attributes, pick up 100 days of lifespan, and pick up a first-level treasure chest." The panel prompts kept ringing.

But Zhu Ying's killing moves did not stop at all. He continued to swing his sword and slash at the surrounding Yuan army madly, as if he wanted to kill all the enemies.

Without the strong supervision of the Yuan general, the Yuan army under his command was completely in a state of collapse.

They fled in all directions, abandoning their armor and weapons, with fear and despair in their eyes, like frightened birds.

"Don't mess up!"

The two garrison officers under General Yuan's command were now anxious and shouted loudly, trying to maintain order in the army.

"Keep pushing forward! Stop the Ming army!"

"The Second Prince has ordered that reinforcements are on the way! We must not retreat!"

However, their shouts seemed so weak and powerless in this chaotic battlefield.

Facing Zhu Ying's frenzied and unstoppable attack, with more and more Daning cavalry charging into the city and Daning infantry climbing onto the city walls, the Yuan army's defenses completely collapsed and gradually retreated. And this retreat was like a flood that broke through a dam, unstoppable and impossible to stop.

"Bros!"

Zhu Ying swung his sword to cut down the enemy while roaring and shouting, full of power: "Kill! Kill all the Tartars!"

For the soldiers of the Daning border army, Zhu Ying is their military soul and the invincible god of war in their hearts.

Just listening to Zhu Ying's voice was enough to make their blood boil and make them excited.

As long as they know that their general is still fighting bravely on the battlefield and is still alive, their morale will never be low and will never be extinguished.

"Follow the general and kill all these Tartars!"

"Kill!"

"Leave no one behind!"

"Charge... Kill..."

The Daning soldiers who had already rushed into the city roared wildly, with fanatical light flashing in their eyes, like a group of fearless warriors, launching the most violent attack on the Yuan army.

Their shouts and cries of killing intertwined together, forming a powerful force that seemed to be about to shake down the entire city.

The gate of Zhenxia City had been completely broken through by the Ming army.

The first street was successfully captured by the Daning soldiers, who advanced forward, stepping on the corpses of countless Yuan soldiers.

Immediately afterwards, the second and third streets were also occupied by the Ming army.

The Yuan army was defeated and had no power to fight back.

More and more Daning soldiers rushed into the city like a surging tide, rushing and killing the enemy madly.

Expand the victory step by step.

Outside the city!

Mu Sheng's eyes were always fixed on Zhenxia City.

At this moment, he was anxiously waiting for the moment when the Daning border army would completely break into the city.

Mu Sheng knew very well that only if the Daning border army successfully broke through the city's defense line would the Huizhou guards under his command have the opportunity to follow closely and join the battle.

The structures of Huizhou Guard and Daning Border Army are completely different. Daning Border Army has 20,000 cavalrymen who are unstoppable in charging and fighting on the battlefield, while Huizhou Guard is composed entirely of infantrymen, most of whom are reorganized from surrendered soldiers from Liaodong. Due to their status as surrendered soldiers, they cannot have the right to form cavalry like Daning Border Army.

This is Huizhouwei’s first battle, and we must win.

"General."

The deputy general was very excited: "When will it be our turn?"

The deputy general held the long sword tightly in his hand, ready to rush to the battlefield and fight at any time.

Mu Sheng turned his head slightly, his eyes sweeping across the deputy general's expectant face. He took a deep breath and said calmly, "Wait until all the Daning border troops have entered the city, then we can press forward."

"Wait for the general's order."

Although Mu Sheng was equally anxious and wanted to lead his troops into the city immediately, the Daning border troops had not yet all entered the city, so it was obviously not their turn to show their ability.

At this moment, he appeared calm on the surface, but his slightly clenched fists revealed the anxiety deep in his heart.

"General Zhu Ying is truly a god."

Mu Sheng withdrew his gaze and once again looked at the city shrouded in flames of war. He thought to himself, "The cavalry broke through the city with such bravery."

"The Yuan court expended countless manpower and resources to establish these magnificent fortresses along the border in an attempt to stop the Ming cavalry. However, this fortress painstakingly built by the Northern Yuan was easily breached by General Zhu."

"Such courage and strength, such ability to command troops, I, Mu Sheng, am convinced."

Mu Sheng's eyes were full of admiration and amazement. Being able to witness Zhu Ying's heroic performance in this battle was truly a rare gain for him.

And where the central army is!
Zhu Di and Li Jinglong stood side by side, and through the protection of the shield army, they closely watched every move on the battlefield.

On the battlefield, more and more Daning cavalry poured into the city like a tide, their figures looming in the smoke.

At the same time, the Daning infantrymen also climbed up the siege ladders, climbed up the city gate with difficulty but determination, and fought a desperate battle with the Yuan army.

See this scene.

Zhu Di and Li Jinglong stared at each other, both showing excitement and excitement on their faces!
This... is a military achievement!

On the first day of the siege, they were able to successfully capture the city that was heavily guarded by the Yuan army. This was undoubtedly a victory of extraordinary significance.

Li Jinglong, in particular, relaxed his tense nerves instantly, revealing a relieved smile. He secretly rejoiced in his heart: "Thank goodness the Daning Border Army has been brought under my command. Otherwise, it would be very difficult to capture this city."

"It seems I can also gain some merits in this battle."

"In this way, the emperor will value my Li family even more."

"Zhu Ying, after this battle, I will definitely write more words of praise in my memorial and commend him for his achievements. This will be considered a mutual achievement for us."

Thinking of this, Li Jinglong could hardly hide his inner excitement, and the excitement on his face became more and more obvious.

It was as if he had already seen him returning to Yingtian in triumph one day and being highly praised in the court for his military achievements.

"Zhu Ying's combat power is exceptional."

Zhu Di narrowed his eyes slightly, staring at the city closely, with a complicated feeling in his heart: "This Great Ning Border Army under his command is also extremely brave under his command."

"Every soldier is fearless of life and death. Their physical strength is strong, and their morale is even stronger."

"Although our Beiping Army was once a frontier army with extraordinary combat power, it was once the best among the frontier armies."

"But now it seems that the combat power of the Daning Border Army has surpassed our Beiping Army."

"How exactly does he train his troops? Is it just as simple as having the soldiers train together?"

"No, it won't be that easy."

Worry and fear flashed in Zhu Di's eyes, and the uneasiness in his heart became stronger.

If only Zhu Ying was brave, it would be just the courage of an ordinary man and would not be a cause for concern.

But now the overall strength of the Da Ning border army under his command is so powerful, how can Zhu Di not be wary of this, and he feels mixed emotions in his heart.

"King Yan."

Li Jinglong smiled and turned to look at Zhu Di, his words full of emotion: "This Daning Border Army is truly brave and invincible!"

"I've been in Yingtian for many years, and I've seen both the Imperial Guards and the Jinwu Guards. They are all elite troops carefully selected from all over the Ming army."

"But after seeing it today, the fighting power of the Imperial Guards and the Jinwu Guards may not be comparable to that of the Daning Border Army."

"General Zhu Ying is truly formidable. Not only is he himself invincible and unrivaled, a true overlord reborn, but even his soldiers are equally brave."

"Do not."

Li Jinglong shook his head slightly and continued, "These soldiers of the Daning Border Army are not only brave, but each of them is not afraid of death and is ready to face death."

"This seems to have a lot to do with General Zhu Ying's inspiring leadership."

"With General Zhu leading by example and charging in the front, the generals of the entire Daning Border Army followed suit. When a deputy commander commanded an army of ten thousand, he would charge in front of ten thousand. When a garrison commander commanded a force of five thousand, he would charge in front of five thousand."

"In this way, although there are many dangers, the combat effectiveness of the entire army has been greatly increased."

"This time, I will definitely write a detailed military report to present to the Emperor the bravery and prowess of the Daning Border Army."

As Li Jinglong spoke, he nodded continuously, his face filled with excitement.

And hear this.

Zhu Di's mind was filled with complex thoughts, but a smile of deep approval immediately appeared on his face. He nodded slightly and agreed, "You are right. The Daning Border Army is so brave and valiant, and General Zhu Ying is so brave. We should write a good military report and submit it to the emperor to let him know about our army's heroic performance."

Zhu Di said this.

But a barely perceptible gloom flashed in the depths of his eyes, as if he was thinking about something.
