He stared at Chu Ze with resentment, with endless hatred and unwillingness rising in his heart.

"Chuze!" Genghis Khan gnashed his teeth and said, "Even if I lose to you today, my Mongolian army will never give up easily! One day you will pay the price for today's victory!"

Chu Ze smiled coldly, his tone disdainful: "You lost, and you still think about the future? Genghis Khan, after today, you will no longer have the opportunity to threaten the Ming Dynasty!"

After saying that, Chu Ze jumped on his horse without hesitation, and the long sword in his hand turned into a sharp cold light, piercing Genghis Khan's heart.

Genghis Khan was shocked. He was seriously injured and could no longer confront Chu Ze head-on. In desperation, he suddenly turned his horse and fled towards the depths of the palace.

Upon seeing this, his trusted guards immediately stepped forward to protect him, standing between Chu Ze and Genghis Khan, attempting to use a human wall to stop Chu Ze's pursuit.

Chu Ze's eyes turned cold and he shouted angrily: "Kill him! Don't let Genghis Khan escape into the palace!"

The disciples of Wulongzhai and Wuyue Sword Sect stepped forward one after another and killed the enemy guards.

Although Genghis Khan's guards were skilled in martial arts, they were unable to stop the Chu Ze army that was coming in like a tide. Men were constantly cut off their horses, and the battlefield was dyed red with blood.

Genghis Khan gritted his teeth, he knew that if he didn't evacuate, he would die here.

At this moment, he looked at the high walls of the palace, and suddenly an idea came to his mind, and a vicious smile flashed across his face.

He shouted sternly: "Come here, set fire! Burn down the palace!"

Following Genghis Khan's order, the Mongolian soldiers who had been lying in ambush in the palace immediately ignited the kerosene that had been prepared. In an instant, raging fires broke out everywhere, and the palace was suddenly engulfed in a sea of ​​fire.

Thick smoke billowed into the sky, flames illuminated half the sky red, and the capital city seemed to have turned into a purgatory on earth.

Genghis Khan laughed loudly: "Chu Ze, although you defeated me, your Ming Dynasty Palace will be reduced to ashes today! Can you save me?!"

Chu Ze watched the palace burning in flames, his heart filled with rage.

He knew that this was Genghis Khan's revenge before his death, and he wanted to completely destroy the symbol of the Ming Dynasty.

"Genghis Khan!" Chu Ze roared, with murderous intent in his eyes.

He galloped on his horse, broke through the encirclement of the guards and approached Genghis Khan.

When Genghis Khan saw Chu Ze rushing towards him with murderous intent, he felt a little scared.

He swung his sword with all his might, but he was already at the end of his strength, his movements were sluggish, and he no longer had the domineering and sharpness he had before.

Chu Ze's eyes were cold, and the long sword in his hand cut through the sky and directly pierced Genghis Khan's heart.

"Puff!" Blood splattered, Genghis Khan's eyes widened, and blood foam overflowed from the corners of his mouth.

He looked down at the wound on his chest in disbelief, and said in a weak voice: "How could I lose to you?"

"Because your ambition is destined to be unable to defeat the destiny of my Ming Dynasty!" Chu Ze said coldly, and with a flick of his wrist, the long sword was pulled out from Genghis Khan's chest.

Genghis Khan trembled, fell off his horse, and fell heavily to the ground, his eyes wide open, and he died with his eyes open.

With the death of Genghis Khan, the morale of the remaining Mongolian and Western Xia troops was greatly reduced, and they were no longer able to resist the attack of Chu Ze's army.

Soon, the capital city was completely occupied by Chu Ze's troops, the remaining enemies were all wiped out, and the entire battlefield fell into deathly silence.

The palace was still burning in flames. Chu Ze looked at the billowing smoke and felt a lot of emotions in his heart.

He knew that although he won today, the price of this battle was extremely heavy.

Beside him, Fairy Yanyu quietly walked up to Chu Ze and whispered, "Your Majesty, victory belongs to the Ming Dynasty, but I'm afraid the palace can no longer be saved!" Chu Ze looked calm and nodded gently, "The palace can be rebuilt if it is destroyed, but the foundation of my Ming Dynasty cannot be shaken!"

He turned to face the soldiers behind him and said in a resounding voice: "In today's battle, all the soldiers fought bloody battles and saved the Ming Dynasty.

You are all heroes of the Ming Dynasty! From today on, the Ming Dynasty will rise again, drive out foreign enemies, and protect the eternal foundation of the Ming Dynasty!"

"Long live our emperor!" The soldiers shouted in unison, their voices shaking the sky.

On this day, Chu Ze finally recaptured the capital and threw Genghis Khan's body into the wilderness.

Time flies.

It has been more than a year since Chu Ze ascended the throne again, and the capital has been reborn from the ruins of war.

The city walls were repaired and the palaces were magnificent. People's livelihood was gradually restored, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and the market was once again prosperous.

With the reconstruction of the capital, the imperial power of the Ming Dynasty reappeared. People from all directions came to pay tribute, and all nations submitted to the Ming Dynasty. The whole world was thriving.

However, just as the Ming Dynasty was gradually reviving, an urgent message arrived from the border, breaking the tranquility.

"Your Majesty, the Western Xia and Mongolian barbarians have repeatedly invaded the border, and the border is in danger!" The messenger knelt in the hall, looking anxious and speaking in a hurried tone.

Chu Ze frowned, slammed the memorial in his hand, his eyes were like torches, and an ominous premonition suddenly arose in his heart.

He once thought that Genghis Khan's death would make the Mongols retreat, but the cruel reality proved that these barbarians never intended to give up.

"Report!" Immediately afterwards, another soldier rushed into the hall with an urgent report, his voice filled with undisguised fear: "Urgent report from Tiandu City! The enemy army is gathering, tens of thousands of troops are approaching the border, Tiandu City is in danger!"

Tiandu City is the gateway to the northern border of the Ming Dynasty. If this line of defense is lost, the enemy will march straight in and approach the heart of the Central Plains.

"Tiandu City," Chu Ze whispered, with huge waves rising in his heart.

He knew that Tiandu City was the last line of defense of the Ming Dynasty.

If the Western Xia and Mongolian coalition forces were allowed to capture Tiandu, the entire Ming Dynasty would be exposed to the enemy's iron hoof. At that time, the people would once again fall into dire straits and the country would face a catastrophe.

Chu Ze stood up suddenly, with a cold light flashing in his eyes. He had made his decision.

"Pass on my order to mobilize 50,000 troops and lead the army in person!" Chu Ze spoke every word with sonorous and powerful force.

He decided to lead his army to Tiandu City in person, defend the border to the death, and never let the Ming Dynasty fall into crisis again.

Upon hearing this, all the ministers in the hall were shocked.

They knew that His Majesty's determination was unshakable, and this campaign would be a crucial battle for the survival of the Ming Dynasty.

Chu Ze immediately summoned all his civil and military officials to discuss military affairs.

Chen Hong, the leader of Wulong Village, Li Changfeng, the head of Wuyue Sword Sect, Lu Bing, the loyal deputy general, and other talented people all came in response.

"Your Majesty!" Chen Hong's face was solemn: "The pass of Tiandu City is dangerous, but the enemy is coming fiercely, I'm afraid they won't retreat easily!"

Li Changfeng also nodded and added: "Western Xia and the Mongolian barbarians have joined forces, and their numbers are superior. In addition, after years of war, their cavalry is extremely powerful. This battle cannot be underestimated!"

Chu Ze's eyes were calm and he had already made a plan in his mind.

"My dear ministers, don't worry. Although the enemy is powerful, our Ming army is strong and powerful, and Tiandu City is easy to defend but difficult to attack. As long as we work together, we will be able to defend the city and repel the enemy!" (End of this chapter)
