Ming Dynasty: Pick up attributes from the battlefield to create the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 165 Zhu Ying: From this day forward, the Ming Dynasty's iron cavalry will be number one in the world! (Summarizing the findings!)
As Guili Chi's head fell to the ground!

His headless body fell directly off the horse and lay in eternal slumber.

at the same time.

The notification sounded in Zhu Ying's ear at just the right time: "Slay the Northern Yuan General [Ghost Power Red], collect 300 points of all attributes, collect 300 days of lifespan, and receive a Tier 2 treasure chest as a reward."

The addition of 300 points to all attributes allowed Zhu Ying to instantly feel an increase in all of his physical attributes.

The slight fatigue was also swept away by the blessing of all attributes.

"As expected of the Northern Yuan General, he has gained a hundred more in all attributes than when he killed Nahachu."

"There's also a Tier 2 treasure chest."

Zhu Ying thought excitedly.

Subsequently.

Without the slightest hesitation, Zhu Ying swiftly reached out and firmly grasped Gui Lichi's head in his hand.

next moment.

Zhu Ying surveyed the panicked Northern Yuan cavalry around him, then coldly shouted, "Your generals have been personally slain by my own hand!"

Inner breath blessing.

Zhu Ying's voice echoed across the chaotic battlefield like a thunderclap.

But the words hadn't completely faded from his lips.

Those who surrender will be spared!

"Those who refuse to surrender will be killed!"

The words were a compensation, but the sound of the general being killed by me was sharper than any sword or blade on the battlefield, piercing directly into the hearts of the Yuan soldiers.

After Wei drank it.

Zhu Ying didn't think much of it and casually hung Guili Chi's head on his warhorse.

He then gripped the tiger-headed battle sword tightly once more, exerted force with his legs, and with a neigh, charged once more towards the surrounding Yuan soldiers!

Zhu Ying naturally wouldn't let go of such a great opportunity to kill enemies and collect attributes.

Unlike battles fought within a city, once a city falls, many enemy soldiers have nowhere to escape.

But now, on this vast plain, facing Yuan cavalry, they would never surrender easily; instead, they would choose to flee.

Zhu Ying knew this well, so he seized every opportunity to eliminate as many enemies as possible.

Zhu Ying was still charging left and right on the battlefield, his sword flashing incessantly, his movements incredibly sharp. With each flash of his blade, Yuan soldiers fell with screams of agony, the slaughter continuing.

And this time!
"General's Divine Might!"

"The Yuan army's general has been killed by the general!"

"Bros!"

"Kill all the Tatars!"

"kill……"

"The general has ordered that anyone who refuses to surrender will be killed without mercy!"

"kill……"

Liu Lei and his many personal guards, their eyes gleaming with fanaticism, roared with boundless excitement.

Their voices merged together, forming a powerful wave that spread across the battlefield.

While roaring to intimidate the Yuan army, the swords in their hands ruthlessly reaped the lives of the enemy.

The news that Guili Chi had been killed by Zhu Ying spread rapidly across the battlefield along with their roars.

Just as Zhu Ying had predicted.

When the surrounding Yuan soldiers saw Guilichi being beheaded by Zhu Ying, they also heard the news of Guilichi's death.

The faces of the Yuan soldiers instantly drained of color, filled with terror and despair.

Morale, fighting spirit!
At that moment, it collapsed like a flood bursting its banks.

They couldn't care about anything else; all they wanted was to escape this terrible battlefield as quickly as possible and save their lives.

"The general is dead!"

"Retreat, retreat quickly!"

“Retreat…”

"We lost."

"..."

The shouts of the Yuan army retreating echoed throughout the battlefield, each shout filled with fear and despair.

Many Yuan soldiers abandoned their battle with the Ming army and turned their horses around to flee north in a panic and helplessness.

A fleeing soldier can take away ten people.

Ten can take away a hundred.

This was precisely the case for the Yuan army, which had lost its commander.

On the vast battlefield, many Yuan soldiers saw their comrades fleeing, and their fear was amplified to an extreme. They fled northwards desperately, disregarding everything else.

"Don't lose formation."

"Charge, defend."

"If we retreat, we will face certain death."

"Let's fight the Ming army! What do we, the sons of the Great Yuan, have to fear from Han barbarians?"

"Go on."

……

Seeing the soldiers fleeing in disarray, many Yuan generals and officers tried their best to hold on.

but.

The army was routed and defeated!
There was no way to stop it.

No matter how Yuan tried to stop him.

"All officers and men obey orders!"

"Those who do not surrender will be deserters!"

"Kill them all!"

Seeing that the Yuan army had collapsed, the desired effect had been achieved.

While fighting the enemy, Zhu Ying watched the fleeing Yuan army and issued another order.

His voice was cold and indifferent, revealing boundless killing intent, without a trace of pity.

"I will obey the general's orders."

"Kill all the Tartars."

"kill……"

Countless Ming soldiers roared loudly, their voices resounding, their fighting spirit boundless.

Each soldier wielded his weapon even more fiercely.

In their eyes, these fleeing Yuan soldiers were no longer a formidable enemy, but a flock of lambs to the slaughter.

Killing one person earns one military merit.

Killing ten people earns you ten military merits.

The Ming cavalry swept towards the fleeing Yuan soldiers like a surging wave, launching a relentless pursuit.

At this point, the outcome of the battle is no longer in doubt.

With the Northern Yuan general Guilichi being overwhelmed and killed by Zhu Ying, the Yuan army's morale plummeted. Moreover, the Ming cavalry's charge, coupled with Zhu Ying's authority and official seal, further fueled the attack.

For a while.

The once mighty Northern Yuan cavalry, hailed as the strongest in the world, has been utterly defeated and is now being slaughtered in a one-sided manner.

The next formation after the Dragon Gate Formation.

Even though they were far apart, Guo Ying and his companions could clearly see the situation of the cavalry battle.

On the battlefield, smoke filled the air, shouts of battle mingled with the sound of horses' hooves.

The cavalry of the Ming and Yuan armies clashed on the grasslands, their swords flashing and blood splattering everywhere.

Zhu Ying led the Ming cavalry to defeat the Yuan army!
"The Northern Yuan cavalry has been defeated."

"Our army has won."

Guo Yingwen said in a somewhat serious tone.

Although he maintained the dignity of a great general on his face, his eyes revealed an uncontrollable excitement.

"The myth of the invincible Northern Yuan cavalry has been shattered."

"I had originally imagined that even if we won this battle, it would be incredibly brutal."

"Even though our army has 150,000 troops, in my humble opinion, we will suffer at least tens of thousands more casualties."

"This battle is possible."

"It far exceeded my expectations."

"Once the results of the battle are tallied, our casualties may be less than 20,000."

"Such a victory is unimaginable!"

Li Jinglong also said with a shocked expression.

It's hard to believe what you're seeing unless you witness it with your own eyes.

The once invincible Northern Yuan cavalry were defeated so easily.

The old days.

The Yuan dynasty, with its iron cavalry, broke through the gates of China, enslaved the Chinese people for a century, and brought endless humiliation to the Han people of the Central Plains.

Now, the Ming cavalry, representing China, has decisively defeated the Northern Yuan cavalry with slightly inferior numbers.

This battle will redefine cavalry warfare and redefine the strongest cavalry in the world.

It will become a significant turning point in the history of the Han Chinese people, and will be forever remembered by future generations.

"Zhu Ying."

"Today, leading my Great Ming cavalry, with a force nearly ten thousand weaker, I decisively defeated the Northern Yuan cavalry, whose force was far greater."

"It will surely leave a mark in history."

"I am not as good as him."

Zhu Di gazed at the distant battlefield, his eyes filled with complex emotions.

The two cavalry forces clashed, and the sheer scale of the battle was overwhelming. Under Zhu Ying's leadership, the Ming cavalry decisively defeated, divided, and annihilated the Yuan army.

These scenes were clearly presented to Zhu Di.

now.

Besides being deeply shocked, Zhu Di also felt a sense of envy.

Zhu Di's greatest ambition had always been to expand the territory and strike back at the barbarian invaders.

But as a prince, as a king of the Ming Dynasty, he had no chance to personally lead troops into battle, let alone accomplish the grand feat he had kept hidden in his heart.

At this moment, watching Zhu Ying lead the Ming cavalry, representing China, to decisively defeat the Northern Yuan cavalry that had dominated the world for hundreds of years, is truly awe-inspiring.

Having accomplished an unprecedented feat, it would be a lie to say that Zhu Di was not envious.

"Don't say that the prince is inferior to him. Look at the whole Ming Dynasty, look at the whole world."

"There is simply no one who can command troops with the same strength and fighting prowess as General Zhu!"

"This battle."

"Even I did not expect to win in this way."

"But from the start of the war, every step was planned by General Zhu."

Guo Ying spoke in a deep voice, her face carrying a profound sense of understanding.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, recalling every detail of the battle, and his admiration for Zhu Ying grew stronger.

Even though he was a great general, he still held him in high esteem.

"General, what do you mean by that?"

Li Jinglong turned to look at Guo Ying, a look of surprise flashing across his face.

"first."

"The reason why this battle was able to defeat the Yuan army was fundamentally due to the Dragon Gate Formation."

"Of course, it is also due to General Zhu's ability to command troops and make strategic decisions."

"General Zhu had anticipated that the Yuan cavalry would underestimate him before engaging in battle. He believed that once the formation was established, the Yuan army would charge in without any precautions."

"It was precisely because the Yuan army underestimated the enemy that they rashly charged into the Longmen Formation without bringing cannons or other weapons."

"Only in this way can tens of thousands of Yuan cavalry be easily trapped in the Dragon Gate Formation, and the power of the formation be used to trap and kill the Yuan cavalry, thus weakening the Yuan army's combat strength."

Guo Ying spoke slowly, with a knowing look in her eyes.

"The Dragon Gate Formation alone trapped and killed nearly 50,000 Yuan cavalry, greatly damaging the elite of the Yuan army."

"That's why General Zhu had 40,000 cavalrymen prepared in advance to fight against the Yuan cavalry and win the battle in one fell swoop."

“Every step, every link, was completely under General Zhu’s control.”

"This battle! I have the utmost respect for it!"

Guo Ying said earnestly, and his tone completely impressed even a general of Zhu Ying's age who was old enough to be Zhu Ying's grandfather.

His face was full of admiration, and he nodded slightly, full of praise for Zhu Ying's military talent.

"General."

"This battle report must be written carefully."

"Let the Emperor know the cause and effect of this battle, and the great victory we achieved."

“Our army could not have defeated these 100,000 iron cavalry, but General Zhu not only won the battle, but also suffered very few casualties. This is a great victory, and General Zhu must be commended.”

Li Jinglong spoke with utmost seriousness and earnestness.

He was a man of strong emotions, and under the influence of his father, he admired military generals.

This battle.

It should have been under his command, as he was the general appointed by the emperor to lead the troops.

But Li Jinglong knew his own limitations; he had no way to deal with 100,000 Northern Yuan cavalry!
This battle was a great victory, and all the results were achieved by Zhu Ying through his own abilities.

His nominal position as deputy general was also due to Zhu Ying's influence.

Having benefited from the situation and made contributions, Li Jinglong was not the kind of person who would embezzle military achievements.

He wanted to report Zhu Ying's military achievements in their entirety.

This is what he should do. "This is a military report."

"I will personally write the memorial to the throne."

Guo Ying said solemnly, her expression equally dignified.

Similarly, as a general, reporting battle results was his duty, and he also recognized Zhu Ying, a junior in the army.

It's also at this time!
A dozen fast riders sped from the battlefield.

Upon arriving at the foot of the high platform where Guo Ying and the other two were, the leading flag bearer, his face filled with excitement, loudly reported, "Reporting to the Great General!"

"General Zhu Ying led his army to defeat the Northern Yuan cavalry, and the Northern Yuan general Guilichi was personally killed by General Zhu Ying."

"The Northern Yuan cavalry has been routed and is fleeing in all directions."

"Our army has won a great victory!"

The little flag's voice trembled with excitement, each word seemingly uttered with all its might.

Such a great victory is a source of pride for all the soldiers in the army.

Upon hearing this, Guo Ying was overwhelmed with excitement. Her eyes lit up instantly, and a smile finally appeared on her previously serious face.

"Good, good, good."

"General Zhu, you truly deserve to be the Champion Earl of our Great Ming Dynasty, and the invincible general of our Great Ming Dynasty."

"I had heard of the name of the Northern Yuan general Guili Chi long ago, but I never expected that he would be killed by General Zhu."

Guo Ying said excitedly, praising the performance repeatedly.

"General."

"Our army has won this battle."

"In future campaigns, the Northern Yuan will be unable to stop the advance of our Great Ming army."

"This Northern Expedition has yielded results," Li Jinglong said excitedly, his face flushed with excitement.

Zhu Di, standing to the side, remained somewhat silent, but this was only on the surface; his heart was also churning with emotion.

If possible, he also wants to participate, fight on the battlefield, and make meritorious contributions.

Despite having the privileges of being both a prince and a vassal king, he was denied this opportunity.

There was nothing but envy.

Even if Zhu Di wanted to prove his abilities to his father, the emperor, there was no way he could do so this time.

Everyone in the army knew that he was just there to observe, holding the title of commander-in-chief, but in reality, it was just a nominal position.

"When will I be able to possess such glory?"

Zhu Di lowered his head slightly, a look of disappointment flashing in his eyes.

"Send the general's order."

"Extract all the surrendered Yuan soldiers from the Longmen Formation and escort them to the rear city."

"Those with minor injuries will be escorted along with them."

"Those with serious injuries, kill them outright."

"Except."

"Have the soldiers disperse in an orderly manner, and gather the surviving warhorses and weapons."

Guo Ying immediately gave the order.

Now that the outcome of the war is decided, the next step is for him, as the general, to make overall arrangements.

"I accept your orders."

The messengers around immediately responded loudly.

Then, they quickly turned around, rode their horses and galloped towards the direction of Longmen Formation to convey Guo Ying's orders.

On the battlefield!

Despite seeing the fleeing Yuan cavalry, Zhu Ying continued to lead his troops in pursuit.

He charged forward on his horse, his killing prowess like that of a war god.

"Ming soldiers."

"You are truly worthy warriors of our China."

"This battle."

"Our army has won a great victory."

"The reputation of the Northern Yuan Iron Cavalry as invincible has been crushed by our army."

"From today onwards."

"Our Ming Dynasty's iron cavalry is the best in the world!"

Zhu Ying raised his battle sword, his voice filled with indescribable excitement, and shouted loudly.

The sound echoed across the battlefield, carrying with it unparalleled glory.

"The Ming Dynasty's iron cavalry was the best in the world."

"The Ming Dynasty's iron cavalry was the best in the world."

"General's divine might, General's divine might..."

From all corners of the battlefield, countless Ming soldiers chased after the fleeing troops while shouting excitedly.

Their voices merged together, forming a powerful sound wave that seemed to shatter the sky.

Every soldier was filled with boundless fighting spirit and soaring morale.

They also have the deepest respect for Zhu Ying!
This applies to both the border troops of Daning and the cavalry of the Beiping army who participated in the battle.

They were all impressed by Zhu Ying's bravery and his ability to command troops.

In their eyes, Zhu Ying was their war god, an invincible war god.

"The Yuan army has been defeated."

"Those who flee will not surrender to the Yuan army."

"In the name of our Great Ming Dynasty, kill!"

Zhu Ying brandished his sword and ordered another pursuit.

"Follow the general to the death."

"kill!"

Tens of thousands of soldiers behind Zhu Ying shouted in unison, their killing intent soaring to the heavens.

Without hesitation, they followed Zhu Ying and charged towards the fleeing Yuan army.

Kill the enemy and achieve merit!
Time passes gradually.

From the great battle at dawn to midday when the sun was high in the sky.

Until nightfall.

This fierce and bloody battle has finally come to an end.

Zhu Ying did not confine himself to the royal pasture, but led his army to pursue and kill countless fleeing Yuan soldiers for dozens of miles. Finally, he found a suitable place to set up camp.

Inside the newly established camp.

"Hahaha."

"General Zhu."

"That was a satisfying kill."

"This humble general never imagined that he could fight so swiftly against the Northern Yuan cavalry."

Zhang Yu was visibly excited, her face flushed with excitement. She looked at Zhu Ying with utter admiration, completely captivated.

Although both were commanders, Zhang Yu referred to himself as a "minor general," which shows Zhu Ying's status in his heart.

"Yes."

"The Northern Yuan cavalry was known as the best in the world."

"For hundreds of years, no cavalry has been able to rival us, but now, under the general's leadership, we have cut down the Northern Yuan cavalry."

"From this day forward, the cavalry of our Great Ming shall be the best in the world."

Chen Heng said excitedly.

"It is my honor to be able to follow the general in creating such great achievements."

"If we win this battle, I will have no regrets even if I die."

Liu Zhen said excitedly, his gaze fixed on Zhu Ying with fervor.

It's not just him.

"I would have no regrets even if I died."

Many generals and officers stared at Zhu Ying with fervor.

At this moment, Zhu Ying may have become a kind of military spirit to them.

In this battle, they participated as generals and wreaked havoc on all sides.

Without a doubt, this battle, in which the Northern Yuan cavalry was defeated, will be recorded in great detail in future historical records.

How could they not be excited about such a historic achievement!
Looking at the generals' excitement and fervor.

Zhu Ying smiled slightly, glanced at it, and then said with a laugh, "Alright."

"Be happy, and enjoy your happiness while you're lying in bed tonight."

"Eat properly now, don't choke."

talking.

Zhu Ying picked up a dry biscuit with one hand, took a big bite, and held the water bag in the other hand, tilting his head back to gulp down a large mouthful.

"The last general takes orders."

The generals replied with a loud laugh.

The laughter carried the joy of surviving a great battle and the happiness of a resounding victory.

As soon as Zhu Ying spoke, all the generals, including the soldiers stationed there, began to wolf down their food.

All of a sudden!

This atmosphere temporarily diluted the bloodshed of the battlefield.

After everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, the camp gradually quieted down.

Zhu Ying stood up, his smile instantly turning serious.

After a quick glance.

Zhu Ying slowly spoke: "Alright."

"They've already rested for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn."

"Everyone will obey the order."

Upon seeing this, the generals immediately stood up, looked at Zhu Ying respectfully, and awaited his orders.

Zhu Ying said in a deep voice: "All commanders shall immediately go to their respective armies to count the casualties of their soldiers, and no one shall be missed."

"The wounded must be sent to the wounded soldiers' camp for treatment immediately. We must treat them as quickly as possible."

"The deceased, collect their bodies and carefully record their names in the register."

"These are all crucial matters now, and all generals must personally handle them without any oversight."

Zhu Ying always took such post-war matters very seriously.

"The last general takes orders."

All the generals bowed to Zhu Ying and immediately accepted the order.

Subsequently.

The generals filed out and quickly returned to their respective camps.

Zhu Ying watched as everyone left before turning around to look at the injured Liu Lei beside him.

Liu Lei was wrapped in simple bandages, with a few streaks of blood seeping through the gauze, and his face was slightly pale.

Zhu Ying stepped forward, his eyes full of concern, and asked, "Are you alright?"

"My lord," Liu Lei immediately straightened up, enduring the pain, and said, "I only have some superficial injuries; I'll be fine after some rest."

Zhu Ying nodded, but his brows remained furrowed. He then asked, "How many casualties did the Imperial Guard suffer?"

Liu Lei's eyes dimmed instantly, and his voice carried a hint of sadness: "Originally there were six hundred and fifty brothers."

"Fifty-seven died in battle, and the rest of the brothers were almost all wounded."

When this number is stated.

Liu Lei's expression was complicated, and tears welled up in his eyes.

These guards were all trained by him and were like his brothers. How could he not be heartbroken by their casualties?

Upon hearing this, Zhu Ying's expression darkened slightly, and he sighed softly: "Go and write down the names, and collect the bodies."

"The injured were treated with medicine powder they carried with them."

"After the Northern Expedition ends, in addition to the imperial court's compensation, I will also give extra to my brothers."

talking.

Zhu Ying reached out and patted Liu Lei on the shoulder.

"Subordinates take orders."

Liu Lei immediately bowed, then turned around to record the names on the roster and treat the wounded.

"Ugh."

Zhu Ying watched Liu Lei's departing figure, sighed, and remained silent for a long time.

The battlefield is inherently cruel.

Even though the guards possessed superhuman strength, casualties were inevitable on this battlefield where swords and spears had no eyes.

Moreover, they were the ones who charged ahead of him, enduring the fiercest attack from the Yuan army. Fifty-seven of them died in battle, which was already a very rare achievement.

Compared to the personal guards, the cavalry must have suffered heavy losses in this battle as well.

After all, the defeat of the Northern Yuan cavalry did not mean that their combat strength was low.

Zhu Ying took a deep breath, composed himself, and said in a low voice, "List all the treasure chests."

next moment.

"The host possesses 12 ordinary treasure chests, 5 Tier 1 treasure chests, and 1 Tier 2 treasure chest."
