Chapter 568 Support is coming
It seems their country isn't much better now.

They were simply laughing at each other while being no better; thinking of this, everyone sighed.

At this moment, he looked at the envoy beside him and said.

"Now that we are under attack, I wonder if we could ask the people of the Delhi Sultanate for assistance? Even if we can't get their help, at least we can't let them cause trouble!"

The minister standing nearby looked troubled upon hearing this.

"Your Majesty, we cannot do this, mainly because we know that our relationship with the Delhi Sultanate is currently very poor!"

"We're not entirely sure what they're thinking right now!"

"I think we should go and test the waters. At least it would be a good thing if we could get the troops from the border to be mobilized!"

Upon hearing this, the Khan of the Timurid Empire sighed deeply.

"Although they have seized a lot of people and territory, it will take some time to convert them into real combat power. At least they don't have that ability right now."

Who could have imagined that something like this would happen at such a critical juncture?

When the news reached the Delhi Sultanate, the Sultan of Delhi burst into laughter.

"Truly, fortunes change, and now it's their turn to suffer. Weren't they laughing at me just a while ago?"

"You make it sound like they're trying to gain some advantage!"

At this moment, the minister standing to the side hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"His Majesty!"

"Now that we have formed an alliance, I think it's time for us to withdraw our troops from the border. This way, they will be able to send some of their troops to the front lines, and we can also free up that force!"

"Then we can join forces to deal with Lan Yu!"

"Once we defeat Lan Yu, things will be much easier from now on!"

The emperor of the Delhi Sultanate frowned, pondering the pros and cons of the matter.

However, at this moment, Crown Prince Subridamur stepped forward and said with a face full of dissatisfaction.

“We didn’t have many troops stationed on the border before, because we believed they were our allies. But what did these people do? They repeatedly led their troops into our territory to plunder each other. I don’t think they are much bigger than the Ming army!”

"On the contrary, they are not as benevolent as the Ming army."

Therefore, our border troops absolutely cannot retreat. If we retreat the moment they attack, the Timurid Empire will launch a direct attack – that's not something to be complacent about!

"Anyway, Lan Yu hasn't made any major moves at this time, and besides, Li Wenzhong is attacking their Timurid Empire, not our Delhi Sultanate!"

Everyone nodded upon hearing this, especially the generals. They had suffered many defeats and heavy losses recently, especially the soldiers, whom they had recruited bit by bit and who were extremely important to them.

They were all gone, and the thought made them grit their teeth in anger.

The minister sighed as he looked at the generals.

Actually, there isn't really any major problem.

The relationship between the Delhi Sultanate and the Delhi Sultanate is indeed not good, so such things are not surprising.

Soon Zhu Xiong Ying arrived at this place with several people.

Besides the officials, Zhu Xiong Ying also brought two other people with him: Lu Xiang Sheng and Li Ding Guo, whom he had recently recruited. Both were rare and renowned generals in the late Ming Dynasty, and with them in command, he could rest easy.

Then their army also arrived at this place.

Zhu Xiong Ying led his troops, marching continuously along the mountain range.

Looking at the plateau, Zhu Xiong Ying breathed a sigh of relief and said.

"Luckily, Lan Yu occupied this area, so we can walk directly across the valley and riverbed without having to climb mountains. Otherwise, we might have lost a lot of what we had obtained!"

The crowd nodded in agreement. Moreover, there was another extremely important matter: most of their troops came from the Central Plains and were not particularly accustomed to the high plateau. Many of them might faint before even reaching their destination.

It is said that this was the scene when Lan Yu first arrived at this place.

At this moment, Lan Yu and the others were already waiting at the door. Not long after, they saw a troop of soldiers slowly approaching in their direction.

Seeing how long the convoy was, Lan Yu and the others were extremely excited.

I never expected His Highness the Crown Prince to bring us so many things this time.

A general standing nearby smiled and nodded.

"Thanks to the many roads that our Great Ming Dynasty has built over the years, the transportation speed of these supplies is much faster than before, and there is much less damage along the way!"

"Otherwise, if it were in the past, with this much stuff, it would be quite good if 30% of it could be transported to the other side such a long distance!"

Everyone nodded upon hearing this, their eyes filled with pride and smugness. The Ming Dynasty's strength was now immeasurably greater than before.

This also provided them with a lot of convenience; in such a country, it would be difficult not to make a name for oneself.

Soon after the convoy arrived at this place, Lan Yu led his generals directly to Zhu Xiong Ying.

"We pay our respects to His Highness the Crown Prince!"

After the carriage stopped, Zhu Xiong Ying came out, flanked by two generals, Li Ding Guo and Lu Xiang Sheng.

The two of them exuded an extremely sharp aura.

Lan Yu has a good eye for people.

At this moment, he looked at the two men in front of him and nodded with satisfaction. From their demeanor, he could tell that they were definitely rare and exceptional generals.

Zhu Xiong Ying smiled as he looked at the generals and spoke.

"Generals, please rise quickly. You have made invaluable contributions to establishing such a foundation for our Great Ming Dynasty in this place."

"When we get back, we will definitely reward you for your contributions, as long as you continue to make contributions."

"Our Great Ming will absolutely not treat you all unfairly. Furthermore, I believe there are many other places we will conquer, and you will also have the opportunity to be granted fiefdoms and titles!"

Everyone was overjoyed to hear this.

At this moment, Zhu Xiong Ying looked at Lan Yu beside him and said with a smile.

"General Lan Yu, with your current merits, you should already be eligible to be enfeoffed as a king. However, you haven't returned to Yingtian Prefecture for some time, so there's no way to reward you for your contributions!"

"But don't worry, once this matter is resolved, you can return to Yingtian Prefecture!"
