The Ming Dynasty: The most ruthless imperial grandson, Old Zhu begged me not to kill him.

Chapter 342 The End of the Tusi

One person nodded after hearing this, and then another person spoke.

"I heard there's a warehouse nearby that contains a huge amount of grain, gold, silver, and even the firearms and cannons that the Ming Dynasty is currently using!"

"If we can take this place and retrieve what's inside, we can also attract the attention of the Ming Dynasty!"

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement, thinking it was a good idea. However, at this moment, a chieftain shook his head and said...

"We're probably short-handed right now. Although the various chieftains have their own territories now, they have no idea what's going on!"

"It's too troublesome to gather them together in a short time, so I think we should start by attacking outwards and try to connect our territories into a line!"

"Finally, let's gather all our strength and attack that warehouse!"

"Which warehouse has so many good things? If we take it, our future battles will be much easier, and the Ming Dynasty will definitely suffer heavy losses, perhaps even forcing them to retreat!"

Everyone nodded in agreement. It was indeed a good idea, and it wasn't particularly difficult for them. After thinking about this, the local chieftains began to contact each other and prepare to take action against the Ming Dynasty.

Upon learning of this, Yu Huatian felt extremely disdainful.

"Since they want those things, then let them perish in this gunpowder, and let them see that those things are not for them to touch!"

He then commanded his army to fight continuously, blockading all the small tribes and taking them over directly. As for the large tribes that resisted fiercely, he deliberately let them go and then concentrated them all in one place.

The reason these chieftains couldn't be completely eliminated was because the people were completely obedient to them. If they left their tribes with their main forces, there would be no problem.

Soon, under Yu Huatian's deliberate arrangement, the chieftains in those small tribes were basically wiped out.

The villagers agreed and left the place to go to nearby villages. Those who did not agree were killed on the spot.

The armies of the large tribes gathered together, and when they finally assembled, they numbered more than 20,000.

They were extremely happy to see so many videos.

This was a chieftain, who frowned.

"Don't you all find this a bit strange? The Ming Dynasty's encirclement of us was already very tight, yet so many of us managed to break through. Isn't this a bit too easy? And have you noticed that all those who broke through were from large tribes? Not a single one of the smaller tribes made it out!"

Upon hearing this, everyone frowned. They seemed to realize these things as well, and upon closer inspection, it seemed to be true. They felt a chill run down their spines.

"You mean someone deliberately drove us to this place? Impossible, absolutely impossible. We suffered a lot of losses and it took us a lot of effort to get here. You're saying that all of that was arranged by the Ming Dynasty? How could the Ming Dynasty possibly do that?"

They anticipated our movements!

Others also nodded.

"Yes, if the Ming Dynasty finds out about our plan, they will definitely send people to intercept us, and they will absolutely not allow so many of us to gather together!"

"Now that so many of our troops are gathered together, what can they do even if we encounter the Ming army? Are we afraid of them?"

Hearing this, the crowd felt a surge of confidence. Indeed, with so many soldiers, what were they afraid of? The man sighed.

"I only have a guess in my mind. Maybe it's just a coincidence, who knows!"

The elder chieftain frowned upon seeing this situation.

"Alright, the enemy hasn't even appeared yet, and you're already throwing yourselves into disarray. What kind of behavior is this? We don't even know if the enemy is in this place, so there's no need to think about it so much!"

"Now that we have formulated this plan, we must complete it no matter what. As long as we take that place, the Ming Dynasty will be the one to suffer losses!"

Everyone nodded in agreement; it wasn't a big problem.

At this moment, everyone charged directly towards the Ming Dynasty's armory.

When they rushed up there, they found that there were not many troops stationed there at all, and the resistance from above seemed rather anxious.

Upon seeing this, the chieftains' eyes lit up.

"Otherwise, I would have said that these guys could not possibly be prepared. If they were prepared, they wouldn't have left no troops stationed here. Let's rush up and take this place!"

Upon hearing that there was plenty of food and gold and silver treasures up there, everyone disregarded everything else and charged straight towards it.

They captured the place in no time.

The Ming army was forced to withdraw from this place, and they breathed a sigh of relief after they left.

"As expected, the Ming army left this place. It seems they really didn't have any preparations. We were indeed overthinking things!"

"But we should move all the good stuff here back to our tribe, as much as we can. As for the rest that we can't move, we should just burn them!"

These people nodded after hearing this, and then began to move the things inside. However, when they opened the warehouse, their expressions changed drastically.

Especially when they opened the bags of grain and found that the grain was completely covered with kerosene.

"Chief, something terrible has happened! The grain we found up here is completely covered in kerosene, and there's no grain inside at all, just dry grass and charcoal, along with kerosene and gunpowder!"

Upon hearing this, the people's faces turned extremely ugly.

"Damn it, we've been tricked! Let's get out of here!"

However, before he could finish speaking, several shells suddenly flew down from the sky and crashed down. The loudest explosion ignited all the dry firewood and oil around them.

In an instant, the flames began to spread rapidly in all directions, engulfing many soldiers in flames.

Some people frantically ran outside, only to find that the outside was already filled with the army of the Ming Dynasty, who were armed with all kinds of weapons. Anyone who tried to escape would be driven back by them with bows and arrows and muskets.
