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

Chapter 504 The Capital is Besieged for the Second Time
The Sultan's emperor's eyes flashed with a murderous glint.

"Damn it! I will never let him take the capital of my Delhi Sultanate again! Order all troops from all over the country to converge on the capital! From this moment on, martial law will be in effect. No one is allowed to enter or leave!"

"Order Dobuachiri to withdraw all his troops. After fighting for so long, they've let the enemy drive them to their own doorstep. What kind of behavior is this? It's utterly despicable!"

The ministers in the court knew that the emperor was truly furious, and they dared not go too far, so they could only agree.

At this moment, on the sea, Zhu Xiong Ying sat on the deck, holding a pot of wine in his hand, and Wu Liang sat next to him.

At this moment, Wu Liang looked at the shore with worry in his eyes.

"Your Highness, the whereabouts of the Duke of Liang and the others are currently unknown, and we are also unclear about the situation on the battlefield!"

"Aren't you worried that we can't get ashore right now?"

Zhu Xiong Ying smiled and shook her head after hearing this.

"Why rush to talk about commanding such a battle? The two of us combined are no match for the Duke of Liang!"

"Moreover, with the assistance of Wang Bi, Mu Ying, and Lu Xiang Sheng, I believe they can make the most suitable choice!"

Upon hearing this, Wu Liang nodded, inwardly sighing with admiration. It was truly rare to find someone like His Highness the Crown Prince who placed such trust in the existence of his generals.

Just then, Wu Liang said in confusion.

"Your Highness, shall we continue to wait in this place?"

Zhu Xiong Ying smiled and shook her head.

"I suspect Lan Yu has no intention of ever returning to this place."

He will most likely head north from this place, cause some trouble, and then return north again, at which point he will retreat from the Ü-Tsang Provincial Administration Commission!

"There's not much point in us waiting here. Since that's the case, we might as well do something else. I've heard that the Delhi Sultanate's navy is quite strong. Would you like to come with me on a sea voyage and see what their naval power is really like?"

Wu Liang was taken aback when he heard this, and he looked at Zhu Xiong Ying with disbelief.

"His Highness the Crown Prince's intention is to completely annihilate the naval forces of the Delhi Sultanate!"

Zhu Xiong Ying smiled and nodded after hearing this.

"Why not?"

Upon hearing this, Wu Liang felt a surge of pride. In the past, he would have thought about it, but now the Ming Dynasty was extremely powerful, especially its navy, which was not to be underestimated. Since it had such a great advantage, why should he consider so many things? He should just go for it. With that thought, he smiled and nodded.

"Since Your Highness the Crown Prince is in such a good mood, I am happy to oblige!"

Zhu Xiong Ying smiled and nodded after hearing this.

"Of course, we don't need to leave all of them. The enemies on the riverbank are no longer a minority. This time, the Duke of Liang is leading his troops to the territory of the Delhi Sultanate once again!"

"I'm afraid the people of the Delhi Sultanate will not let this go so easily this time!"

"Leaving some troops on the border, and even occasionally sneaking ashore to launch a surprise attack, would be quite beneficial to us!"

Upon hearing this, Wu Liang immediately understood what it meant, smiled and nodded, looking at Zhu Xiong Ying and saying, "Please rest assured, Your Highness!"

"Leave this to me. I guarantee I'll make those coastal outposts too busy to pursue them!"

At this moment, the people of the Delhi Sultanate were very unhappy to see that the gates of the Delhi Sultanate's capital were now tightly closed, preventing people from entering or leaving.

"What does it mean?"

"Why did you suddenly close the gate and stop us from coming in or out? What happened?" the general guarding the city asked.

"That demon surnamed Lan is back, and this time he's brought even more troops!"

"We don't have a lot of troops in our capital right now, so we must be on high alert to prevent the enemy from invading!"

Upon hearing this, everyone panicked. They never expected that Lan Yu would come to this place again, and with even more troops.

When Lan Yu came to the capital, he caused them great panic.

Unexpectedly, history is about to repeat itself after such a short time.

Upon realizing this place, everyone felt extremely panicked. Most of the people living in the capital were either rich or noble, and were certainly not ordinary people.

They heard that Lan Yu, coincidentally, had a penchant for targeting nobles like them. The thought of this gave them a headache.

One by one, they fled back to their homes and locked their doors.

The scene outside was quite different from the situation in the capital.

When the people of the Delhi Sultanate heard that Lan Yu had come again, they were not worried; on the contrary, they were all very happy.

After Lan Yu arrived in this place, he almost wiped out all the local powerful families, but it did not have much impact on the common people. In fact, he even gave them a lot of food.

Unfortunately, after Lan Yu retreated, the grain was looted by the nobles. Now, the nobles and the government have joined forces to clear out all the remaining grain in their hands. Whether they can survive is a question, let alone anything else. They are not worried about Lan Yu coming to this place; on the contrary, they are hoping for Lan Yu to come.

Some people even overthrew the local government, opened the city gates, and welcomed Lan Yu out, which greatly shocked Lan Yu.

"I never imagined that attacking a city would be so easy now. It seems that the Emperor of the Delhi Sultanate is truly unpopular despite his good governance!"

However, this is not necessarily bad news for them.

This time, Lan Yu's journey went much more smoothly than the last, something he hadn't expected.

The group marched forward triumphantly, and with their troops, they arrived in no time.

Beneath the capital of the Delhi Sultanate, the emperor looked down at the Ming army with an extremely grim expression. The Ming army was not particularly large; there were only about ten or twenty thousand troops in their city.

In addition, the number of laborers temporarily conscripted recently is also considerable.

Furthermore, since this is a defensive battle, the longer they can hold out, the safer they will be, and other troops will arrive at this location as quickly as possible.

When attacked from both inside and outside, these Ming armies will definitely not be able to hold out for long.
