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

Chapter 192 Ambush? Zhu Ying had already seen through it! The final battle of the Northern Expedition!
"This time, if they dare to come."

"I will definitely tear these damned barbarians to pieces."

“Especially Zhu Ying, I want him to know what the price of blood is.”

Ma'er Ke'er's eyes were filled with coldness.

This battle.

Under his strategic planning, he naturally felt that the odds of winning were very high, or rather, that victory was assured.

For him, everything was ready except for the final push.

The next day!

The sun is rising.

Zhu Ying's 50,000-strong army had arrived at a place less than five miles away from the Northern Yuan royal court.

From a distance.

The Northern Yuan royal court tribe is almost within reach.

and.

There are still no obstacles ahead.

"The whole army obeys the order."

"Proceed slowly and at my command at any time."

Zhu Ying raised his battle sword and shouted loudly.

"Yes."

The generals shouted in unison.

now.

Chen Heng and Zhang Wu followed behind Zhu Ying, with Liu Lei leading seven hundred personal guards closely behind.

Under Zhu Ying's leadership, the 50,000 border cavalry of Daning did not rush forward, but steadily advanced, gradually approaching the Northern Yuan royal court.

Five miles.

Three miles.

The continuous tribes of the Northern Yuan royal court were already in sight ahead.

And this moment.

As the Northern Yuan royal court appeared, all the generals and soldiers except Zhu Ying tensed up. They were already close to the royal court, but the Northern Yuan army did not offer any resistance. The seemingly calm area was actually hiding a deadly trap, and the Northern Yuan army could attack at any moment.

but!
None of the soldiers knew, nor did the Northern Yuan army.

High in the sky, a pair of eagle eyes looked down, taking in everything on the land below. Zhu Ying, while riding his horse, also focused his gaze on the golden eagle's eyes, looking down at the land.

Golden eagles circled and soared, and from high above, nothing could hide from their view.

"Northern Yuan, are you ambushing us from three sides?"

"Just wait for our army to storm into your now-empty royal court, and then we'll surround and annihilate our entire army in one fell swoop."

"That's a great idea."

"If I were to lead my army into your royal court, I might very well end up being completely annihilated by you."

"This time, your Northern Yuan is so confident in your deployment, with ambushes on three sides, it seems you really know the strength of our army."

"This matter really needs to be considered carefully."

"only."

"One was the one who leaked intelligence, and the other was the Northern Yuan's plan to annihilate our army."

"You all underestimate me, Zhu Ying."

"Ambush is simply not a possibility for me."

Zhu Ying sneered inwardly.

From the golden eagle's perspective, looking down from high above, Zhu Ying could clearly see the Yuan army's deployment around the Northern Yuan royal court.

The Yuan army had been amassed on the north, west, and east sides, and was now hidden away.

Once Zhu Ying leads his army into the Northern Yuan royal court, someone will send out a signal, and then they will be surrounded from three sides. Zhu Ying's 50,000-strong army will be trapped and unable to escape.

Under Zhu Ying's gaze.

This time, the Northern Yuan forces numbered no less than 200,000, several times the size of his forces.

If we are unaware of the ambush and the true nature of the Northern Yuan, we will be surrounded by the Northern Yuan unless we retreat directly, and our army will be annihilated.

Only now.

Zhu Ying had already figured out the Northern Yuan's troop deployment, so their ambush naturally became a joke.

Wu Feng slowly walked towards the Northern Yuan Royal Court, with 50,000 cavalry following closely behind. However, they deliberately slowed down, and every soldier was waiting for Zhu Ying's command so that they could charge without fear.

Meanwhile, within the Northern Yuan royal court.

Many eyes were watching the approaching Ming cavalry, who carried tinderboxes and gunpowder. It seemed that as soon as the Ming army stepped into the royal court, they would set the entire court ablaze, both to inflict heavy losses on the Ming army and to signal a three-pronged encirclement and annihilation of the invading Ming army.

"Chief of a thousand men."

"The Ming army is less than a mile away from our royal court."

"A Yuan soldier, who was hiding at the royal outpost, said in a low voice."

"Sons."

“The Ming army is cruel. They seized our Yuan territory and slaughtered our Yuan tribes. Our loved ones died at the hands of these damned barbarians.”

"They deserve to die."

"Once they enter the royal court, immediately ignite the gunpowder and drag these damned barbarians down with them," the Northern Yuan commander on duty said in a deep voice.

"Yes."

"Let's die together with these damned barbarians."

"They deserve to die..."

Many of the Yuan soldiers hidden within the royal court were prepared to die.

The goal was clearly to inflict heavy losses on the invading Ming army at minimal cost.

And at this moment, they are waiting quietly.

And just then!
When the Ming army was less than a mile from his royal court, the leading Ming general suddenly raised his sword.

"They're finally about to break in."

The Yuan soldiers hidden inside the royal court sneered, waiting for the Ming army to storm into their palace.

But right now!
"Soldiers."

"This royal court is ambush site; entering means certain death."

"Follow me eastward to charge and crush the Northern Yuan army."

"kill!"

Zhu Ying shouted loudly,
Zhu Ying, who was originally heading towards the Northern Yuan royal court, suddenly pulled on the reins and charged directly eastward.

The order will be given.

A murderous intent arose.

The 50,000 Ming soldiers were perfectly aligned and did not attack the Northern Yuan royal court at all. Instead, they followed their general and charged directly towards the east of the royal court.

They bypassed the Northern Yuan royal court!
For every soldier of the Da Ning border army, Zhu Ying's words were an unquestionable command in their hearts, and they had no fear even if there were mountains of knives and seas of fire ahead.

This scene.

This immediately threw the Northern Yuan soldiers who were hiding and lying in ambush inside the royal court into a panic.

"What are the Ming army doing? Why don't they enter my royal court?"

"Why is this?"

"There's no reason?"

Why did they suddenly head east?

"The east is where the Grand General is stationed. Could it be that the Ming army knows the Grand General is in the east?"

"No, absolutely impossible. We set up an ambush on three sides, and the Ming army was rushing all the way. Who could have tipped them off? That's impossible."

"Have they discovered us?"

"How to do?"

"Should we still light the gunpowder now?"

……

The Ming army's sudden shift to an offensive caught the Yuan army in the Northern Yuan court off guard, leaving them bewildered.

They had been watching the Ming army march towards their royal court, and it seemed they were about to enter, when suddenly they turned around!

How can they possibly understand this?
But now!
Zhu Ying didn't care about what they thought at all.

From the golden eagle's perspective, it could see all the ambushes around the Northern Yuan royal court. By circling carefully at low altitude, it discovered the location of the general's flag that was ambushing the Yuan army, which was also the location of their rear guard. As long as they could break through them, no matter how many troops the Yuan army had, they would become a joke.

Let alone 100,000 or 200,000, even if it were an army of 300,000.

Once their commander is eliminated, they will lose their command and be scattered by Zhu Ying's cavalry.

They were routed in a single blow.

But at the moment.

The location is east of the royal court.

It was three miles away from the royal court.

The army to the east was deployed here, with Ma'erke'er personally leading 100,000 troops to garrison the area. They were just waiting for a signal from the royal court; once the explosion was heard, they would launch a three-sided siege.

"General."

"A scout report has just arrived that the Ming army is approaching the royal court. Once the signal is given, we can encircle and annihilate this Ming army from three sides," a Yuan general excitedly told Ma'erke'er.

"Father." "Your spirit in heaven is watching."

"Today, I will personally kill Zhu Ying and use the lives of these 50,000 Ming soldiers to atone for your sins."

Ma'erke'er drew the curved knife from her waist, then held it up with both hands, looked up at the sky, and shouted loudly.

this moment.

He wanted his father in heaven to witness how he annihilated the Ming army and how he killed Zhu Ying, who was known as the God of War of the Ming Dynasty, as a blood sacrifice.

But just as Ma'er was praying devoutly!
Ta, ta-ta.

The endless clatter of horses' hooves swept in, like the roar of endless thunder.

This time!

The Yuan soldiers lying in ambush finally came to their senses and looked ahead.

Under that endless thunderous roar.

Countless red-armored cavalrymen rushed towards their location.

"The Ming army...why are the Ming army attacking us?"

"Aren't they attacking the royal court?"

"How is this going?"

When the Ming cavalry charged madly towards them, the Yuan soldiers stationed there panicked.

Even though they were already lined up and ready, and even though they had a considerable number of troops.

However, the Ming army had completely overturned their original ambush plan.

"General."

"How is this going?"

"Ming cavalry are charging towards our army."

The faces of the many generals who were originally confident changed, and they hurriedly looked at Ma'erke'er.

But at the moment.

The latter was equally astonished and completely bewildered.

even.

He thought he was seeing things and rubbed his eyes, but looking ahead, tens of thousands of Ming cavalrymen were charging madly towards him.

"Soldiers of the Great Ming!"

"The Yuan army intended to ambush and kill our troops."

"What should we do?"

Zhu Ying raised his sword, stared intently at the Yuan army in front of him, and shouted loudly.

"Kill, kill, kill!"

Fifty thousand Ming cavalrymen shouted in unison, their killing intent boundless.

Every cavalryman's eyes were fixed on the Yuan army ahead, filled with killing intent and a resolute determination to risk their lives.

"Mounted archery".

As the Yuan army drew ever closer.

Zhu Ying shouted.

With ten arrows already nocked on his precious bow, his eyes were fixed intently on the Yuan army ahead.

"Kill, kill, kill!"

All the soldiers raised their bows and arrows, staring intently ahead. At the same time, under the command of their respective generals, the cavalry quickly dispersed, spreading out as much as possible.

Zhu Ying's soldiers were all veterans of countless battles. Once on the battlefield, they had a tacit understanding with each other. This was the elite force of battle-hardened veterans.

When they are less than a hundred steps apart.

The Yuan army ahead was in a state of panic. Faced with Zhu Ying's sudden attack, the Yuan army had no way to deal with it and was completely in disarray.

"kill!"

Zhu Ying suddenly released the fully drawn, precious bow with a loud shout.

Shhhhhh.

Shhhhhh.

Ten sharp arrows instantly transformed into lightning bolts, piercing through the air.

Just a moment!

"Ah...ah..."

A series of screams.

The dozens of Yuan soldiers at the forefront had no chance to react at all, and were instantly pierced by the powerful force of the ten arrows. They were standing very close together, and none of the ten arrows missed. Each arrow easily pierced through several Yuan soldiers.

"Kill the Northern Yuan soldiers, pick up 1 points of strength, pick up 5 days of life."

"Kill a Northern Yuan soldier and collect 1 point of internal energy..." the panel directly prompted.

Zhu Ying then fired his arrow.

"Kill, kill, kill!"

Fifty thousand Ming soldiers roared, raising their bows and unleashing a barrage of arrows like a raging storm, hurling them wildly towards the Yuan army.

Under random arrows.

Countless Yuan soldiers screamed in agony.

They fell to the ground, one after another, into pools of blood.

But the rain of arrows from the Ming soldiers did not stop.

They continued to fire arrows frantically, killing as many enemies as possible and inflicting heavy losses on the Yuan army.

During this arrow-firing process, the cavalry raid continued, and many Yuan soldiers retreated in fear. Before the battle even began, their formation had already begun to crumble.

Obviously.

Every Yuan soldier originally intended to ambush and kill the Ming army, never expecting that the Ming army would turn around and attack, directly reaching their doorstep.

The psychological letdown and strategic missteps are perhaps what this means.

"General, what should we do?"

This time!

The panicked Yuan generals looked at Ma'erke'er in horror.

"All troops, listen to my command! Engage in battle! Engage in battle!"

"The Ming army only has 50,000 troops, while my Great Yuan army has 300,000. Encircle and annihilate them immediately!" Ma'er Ke'er came to her senses, immediately raised her scimitar, and roared loudly.

Under his command.

Many generals also came to their senses and ordered their troops to engage in battle.

only.

Their entire army at this moment consisted of infantry.

The cavalry, who were originally preparing for battle, were in the north and would not move without a signal.

When cavalry targets infantry, it's a massacre.

Zhu Ying rode his black eagle and instantly rushed to the front of the Yuan army's already somewhat chaotic formation.

"cut!"

Zhu Ying raised his sword and swung it, slashing at the enemy's face.

As Wu Feng charged in, a group of Yuan soldiers in front of him was instantly cleaved in two with a single slash.

In an instant, people and horses were thrown into chaos, and blood splattered everywhere.

As Wu Feng charged forward, Zhu Ying wielded his sword incessantly, each strike a killing blow against the Yuan soldiers, each strike claiming the lives of several.

"Killed a Northern Yuan soldier, collected 1 point of strength..."

"Kill the Northern Yuan soldiers..."

As the killing begins, notifications keep appearing.

"Follow the general and kill all these Tartars."

"One battle settled the Northern Yuan."

"Kill!"

Chen Heng and Zhang Wu roared.

All the generals brandished their swords and led their troops in a charge against the Yuan army in front.

Cavalry charge across the vast plains; this is the cavalry's home turf.

All that could be seen was the Ming soldiers brandishing their swords, slaughtering Yuan soldiers like poultry.

Just one rush!
The Yuan army's forward formation was instantly torn apart.

The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty followed their general and their champion, like five long dragons, frantically cutting down and killing the enemy.

Countless screams accompanied by flowing blood spread across the plain.

This battle.

This was a massacre targeting the Yuan army.

No surprises.

As Zhu Ying charged forward, his eyes were fixed on the banner of the Yuan general.

If we eliminate him, we can achieve a great victory in this battle and leave the Yuan army leaderless!
Once we've dealt with him, the next step is to seal the wolf's lair and reside in the capital!
