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

Chapter 693 Night attack on enemy camp
His eyes were full of recognition and trust in Ye Qingzhou's abilities.

Lin Qiming also came over at this time, and he quickly gave his soldiers orders to organize the battlefield and guard the camp.

His voice was calm and composed, which reassured people: "Now is a critical moment for the future, and we must not let our guard down."

Although the enemy was in retreat, Ye Qingzhou was clearly aware of the potential danger lurking behind them.

She turned to Lin Qiming and said, "Their coach is still here. If the regrouping is successful, they might retaliate against us."

Lin Qiming frowned, thought for a moment, and replied, "Indeed, we cannot underestimate them. However, if we can deliver a fatal blow before they regroup, the enemy will have no chance of turning the tide."

Zhu Xiong Ying nodded in agreement, adding firmly, "Pursuing the victory is crucial. This is not only a good opportunity to weaken the enemy's strength, but also a major consolidation of the borders of our Great Ming."

Ye Qingzhou nodded firmly, her eyes revealing an indomitable fighting spirit: "Let me join the pursuit team. With my keen insight, their movements will never escape our notice."

The two armies immediately began to prepare for battle, and the camp was bustling with activity yet orderly.

The pursuing force was quickly ready, and Zhu Xiong Ying, mounted on his horse, had a firm and serious look in his eyes.

He said approvingly to Ye Qingzhou beside him, "Qingzhou, you're going to have a tough time again. The mission to scout out the enemy will still rely on your wisdom and courage."

Ye Qingzhou smiled slightly, his expression resolute: "Your Highness, rest assured, I will do my utmost to make the enemy have nowhere to hide."

She mounted her horse and galloped towards the open ground ahead, the sound of hooves like a stirring war drum, resounding in the ears of the soldiers.

Meanwhile, Lin Qiming remained at the camp to direct the defense and strengthen vigilance.

Inside the camp, the soldiers moved swiftly and orderly, carrying out their defensive deployment.

He walked to the command platform and calmly surveyed the surroundings, making sure that every soldier was at their post.

"Everyone must remain vigilant. Although the enemy is retreating, we must not let our guard down!"

Lin Qiming loudly reminded him.

He knew that only with a secure rear could the pursuit from the front proceed without worry.

The pursuit team moved quickly, and Ye Qingzhou's keen eyes constantly searched for any clues the enemy might have left behind in the darkness.

In the dense forest, she sensed something unusual.

She quietly ordered the entire team to stop, and alone she walked around a grove of trees and discovered the enemy commander's temporary headquarters.

Ye Qingzhou leaned against a tree, holding his breath and observing the enemy's movements.

Although the enemy is trying to reorganize, they are clearly still in disarray.

She quickly relayed this information back to Zhu Xiong Ying.

After receiving the intelligence, Zhu Xiong Ying pondered for a moment and decisively ordered: "We will divide our forces to encircle and catch the enemy off guard!"

His voice was filled with unwavering confidence and determination, as if an imminent victory was already foreseen.

The pursuit team swiftly launched its operation as planned, hovering around the enemy command post like ghosts under the cover of night.

As Zhu Xiong Ying raised his arm and gave the order, the soldiers surged towards the enemy like a tidal wave, launching a precise and fierce attack on the command post.

Caught off guard, the enemy's command was thrown into disarray, and their defensive line was gradually breached.

Under Ye Qingzhou's flexible and insightful guidance and Zhu Xiong Ying's outstanding command, the enemy's ability to reorganize and counterattack was completely dismantled.

Several hours later, the remaining enemy troops were routed, and their commander had no choice but to retreat again. As the signal of victory reached the camp, the soldiers erupted in deafening cheers.

Lin Qiming relaxed slightly and organized a simple yet enthusiastic celebration to boost morale.

The campfire illuminated the joy on everyone's faces. The security of the Ming Dynasty's borders was secured, and the soldiers knew that this victory was hard-won.

On the battlefield, Zhu Xiong Ying patted Ye Qingzhou on the shoulder, his tone full of pride: "Qingzhou, you did an excellent job. This victory is inseparable from your contribution."

The soldiers were busy dealing with the battlefield and handling all the affairs following the victory.

Ye Qingzhou walked near the command post, his eyes scanning the surroundings carefully and attentively, searching for any important information that might have been left behind by the enemy.

Just as she bent down to sift through a pile of scattered documents, an important document that caught her attention suddenly appeared in front of her.

She quickly flipped through the documents and confirmed that they not only recorded the movements of enemy reinforcements but also detailed their schedules.

Her expression turned serious as she realized the importance of the document, and she immediately went to find Zhu Xiong Ying.

Stepping into the makeshift command tent, she saw Zhu Xiong Ying discussing the follow-up action plan with several generals.

Holding the document, Ye Qingzhou said firmly, "Young Master Zhu, I have discovered intelligence about enemy reinforcements. We need to take immediate action."

Zhu Xiong Ying put down the map in her hand, her eyes flashing with a mixture of caution and decisiveness.

He took the document, quickly glanced through it, and a resolute smile appeared on his lips: "This is a golden opportunity. We must strike first and not give the enemy a chance to breathe."

Soon after, in another corner of the temporary camp, a simple yet enthusiastic victory celebration was underway.

The joy on everyone's faces was clearly visible in the light of the campfire.

Lin Qiming raised his glass and addressed the assembled soldiers in a powerful voice: "This victory was hard-won! Thank you to everyone for your courageous contributions."

Inspired by his words, the crowd responded with enthusiastic applause and cheers.

The celebratory atmosphere of the victory banquet gradually spread, elevating everyone's mood to a new level.

At the same time, Ye Qingzhou did not relax his vigilance because of this temporary victory.

During the brief preparation time, she contacted the reconnaissance teams on the perimeter to confirm the exact location of the enemy reinforcements.

After confirming that the intelligence was accurate, she met with Zhu Xiong Ying again to discuss the details.

"For tonight's operation, we will launch a night raid."

Zhu Xiong Ying confirmed the new battle plan, his voice revealing his usual composure and confidence.

"We must strike decisively, leaving the enemy no room for counterattack."

The soldiers quickly finished packing and were ready to go.

Their fighting spirit was rekindled, and they were filled with anticipation for the mission ahead.

Zhu Xiong Ying patted Ye Qing Zhou on the shoulder, thanking her for the timely information. The trust between the two was further strengthened by this success.

As night deepened, the pursuit team regrouped, preparing to carry out a new mission.

At Zhu Xiong Ying's command, they once again swiftly slipped into the night like cheetahs, launching a silent pursuit towards the direction of enemy reinforcements.
