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

Chapter 442 The situation turns sharply
At this moment, a general, upon hearing this, hurriedly said something with great anxiety.

"General, this is absolutely unacceptable. Those people already have some conflicts with us. If we do this, and word gets out, it could be detrimental to us, and it might even cause considerable trouble within our ranks!"

It should be noted that the Timurid Khanate had pacified many countries that had previously differed in language and customs. Now, due to the Timurid Khanate's formidable strength, these countries dared not utter a single complaint.

In addition, the previous Khan of the Timurid Khanate governed very well, which greatly eased the conflicts between these tribes and strengthened the national power of the Timurid Khanate.

However, when the current Khan ascended the throne, he did not particularly care about these other inadequate people, and even felt some disgust towards them. He was especially dissatisfied with the power they had acquired and had suppressed them on several occasions.

This also led to his generals having the same idea.

They soon began plundering the belongings of the surrounding tribes.

Before long, they had plundered all the power of these tribes.

The effect was very obvious; they obtained quite a lot of things. The leading general was extremely pleased with himself. I told him that these guys still had quite a few good things in their hands. It was a real pity to leave so many things in their possession.

The people in these tribes were extremely angry when they learned of this situation.

"What are you doing? We're all from the same country, and we haven't done anything wrong. Why are you targeting us?"

Upon hearing this, the leading general burst into laughter.

"Don't think I don't know what you're thinking. You're all a bunch of treacherous people!"

"If my Timur Khanate ever becomes weak, you will definitely rebel under the pretext of restoring our homeland. You people are all ungrateful wretches. What use are you? It would be better to kill you all!"

"Besides, we are currently dealing with the Ming army and urgently need a large amount of supplies, so consider this a loan!"

The tribal chiefs were furious upon hearing this; this was not borrowing, it was blatant robbery.

"You wait, when we get back I will definitely report you to the Great Khan!"

Hearing this, everyone felt extremely disdainful.

They didn't seem to take his words seriously, and at that moment the leading general snorted coldly.

"Let's talk about it after you come back alive. I never said I could let you go back alive!"

The next day, Prince Yan, Zhu Di, led his army to the city wall again. They saw that the troops below were fully prepared and had not suffered much damage. More importantly, in addition to them, there was a large amount of engineering equipment, which made them wonder if the trees in the vicinity had been cut down.

Where did they get the tools to manufacture engineering equipment? Especially since their army was much larger than before, that was what shocked them.

Prince Zhu Di of Yan sighed.

"Although we don't know what happened, let's continue our defense for now. We'll investigate what happened later." Everyone nodded and resumed their defense.

The generals of the Timurid Khanate placed these troops, recruited from various tribes, at the forefront.

They even threatened these people's families, leaving them no choice but to agree to charge forward recklessly. This posed a great threat to Prince Yan, Zhu Di. Prince Yan gritted his teeth as he watched this scene. These guys were truly despicable, actually coming up with such a method.

Everyone sighed upon hearing the news. They hadn't expected such a thing to happen, but since it had already occurred, there was no way to change it. At this moment, Zhang Yu said...

"Although this method will only hasten their defeat for them, it is indeed the best approach in the short term. We have suffered heavy losses, but we must hold this place no matter what, otherwise things will become very difficult!"

For the next period of time, Prince Yan Zhu Di used almost all the skills he had obtained from Duke Wei Xu Da in order to defend this place. He was very clear that if this place could not be defended, the whole battle would be greatly affected.

After a battle,

They finally captured Ili, the capital of the Chagatai Khanate. Seeing this achievement, they breathed a sigh of relief; they had finally accomplished their mission.

These things.

The only pity is that although we captured Yili.

The Chagatai Khan and several important ministers could not be found; it is estimated that they escaped in the chaos.

After we occupied this place, Li Wenzhong looked at General Ping An beside him and said.

"Now that we have captured this place, my biggest concern is the current situation of Prince Yan, Zhu Di. Prince Yan is under tremendous pressure, and if he encounters danger, he may not be able to hold out for long. Therefore, our top priority is to help him. I hope you can lead our elite troops to provide support!"

Ping An nodded after hearing this, as he knew that Prince Yan, Zhu Di, was a prince whom His Majesty valued highly.

If anything goes wrong, they'll probably have a hard time.

Ping An nodded after hearing this, his eyes filled with determination.

"Rest assured, Commander, I will definitely bring His Highness Prince Yan back safely!"

Upon hearing this, Duke Li Wenzhong of Cao State nodded, and then Ping An led his troops directly towards Almaty.

Meanwhile, the war in Almaty was extremely fierce.

This time, the general of Timur Khanate brought out almost all the troops he could muster. The two armies fought fiercely together in the direction of the city wall.

Corpses were everywhere, yet the attacking soldiers still rushed up the floors, stepping over them.

Prince Yan, Zhu Di, mobilized all the troops at his disposal, and in order to win this war, he spared no effort to use up all the gunpowder, causing considerable damage to the enemy. Looking at the situation now...

The general leading the Timurid Khanate looked extremely grim; their losses in this battle had been very severe.

The losses inflicted on them were especially great by that particular type of musket.
