Qin Yunyun held on to the city wall tightly, staring at the battle below intently, her brows slightly furrowed, obviously quite nervous.

Looking at the battlefield again, Guo Huai and Tuoba Tianlang had been fighting for dozens of rounds in a row, and both were evenly matched.

Tuoba Tianlang's eyes were red, and he roared, "Guo Huai, your Ming generals are no better than this! I will take your head today!"

Guo Huai was not in a hurry. He sneered and suddenly rode his horse back. After he had distanced himself from them, he suddenly shouted, "You Xixia bastard, look at the gun!"

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly threw the spear in his hand like lightning. The spear turned into a bolt of lightning and rushed straight into Tuoba Tianlang's chest.

Tuoba Tianlang was horrified and hurriedly swung his hammer to block, but he was still a step too slow. The spear pierced his left shoulder and blood gushed out.

Tuoba Tianlang screamed, fell off his horse, and the wolf-fang hammer flew out of his hand.

His face was filled with pain and he struggled to stand up, but Guo Huai quickly approached him.

Guo Huai drew the sword from his waist and said coldly: "Today, I will let you, the Xixia thief, die here!"

Tuoba Tianlang widened his eyes and looked at Guo Huai in horror, but he was powerless to resist.

Just as Guo Huai was about to swing his sword, a horn suddenly sounded in the distance, followed by a Western Xia reinforcement force rushing in, with hundreds of cavalrymen pouring onto the battlefield like a tide.

Seeing this, Guo Huai quickly put away his sword and rode his horse back.

He looked back at the city wall and shouted, "Your Majesty, the enemy reinforcements are coming very quickly. I'm afraid I can't resist them alone!"

Chu Ze frowned slightly, then said coldly: "What a Xixia thief, he actually has a backup plan.

Order the entire army to prepare for battle!"

When the order was given, the city suddenly became noisy, the sound of war drums shook the earth, and the soldiers were ready to go.

Chu Ze turned to Lin Ye beside him and said, "Lin Ye, you must take a team of elite soldiers to support Guo Huai immediately. I want you to stop the enemy outside the city and not let them get close to the city wall!"

Lin Ye bowed and accepted the order, then quickly led a team of elite soldiers out of the city gate and joined the battlefield.

The soldiers of both sides were fighting outside the city, and the shouts were deafening.

Chu Ze stood with his hands behind his back, observing the battle calmly.

At this time, the Western Xia reinforcements had already clashed with Guo Huai's troops, but the training and discipline of the Ming Iron-Blooded Army gave them the upper hand.

Guo Huai galloped on his horse, with the spear in his hand flying up and down, constantly repelling the enemy, and the battle situation gradually stabilized.

Qin Yunyun stood aside and whispered, "Your Majesty, the battle is fierce. Do you need me to pray for the soldiers?"

Chu Ze heard this and chuckled, "I appreciate Yunyun's kindness.

However, on the battlefield, only strength and iron blood can determine victory or defeat. Praying is not enough!"

As they were talking, Lin Ye had already led his elite troops into the enemy camp. Amidst the flashing of swords and sabers, he quickly killed several enemy soldiers and went straight to Tuoba Tianlang's side.

Tuoba Tianlang was already seriously injured. Seeing this, he was horrified and hurriedly called for reinforcements, but to no avail.

Lin Ye raised his sword and chopped it down. Tuoba Tianlang's head rolled to the ground and blood splattered everywhere.

Upon seeing this, the morale of the Xixia soldiers collapsed and they began to retreat.

Chu Ze stood on the city wall, watching all this coldly, and said calmly: "The Xixia barbarians are nothing more than that.

Order the entire army to pursue the enemy while they are victorious and not let a single person escape!"

The messenger quickly conveyed the order, and the Ming Iron Blood Army, led by Guo Huai and Lin Ye, began a full-scale counterattack. Outside the city, the sound of swords and sabers and the sound of killing were endless.

The Western Xia army was defeated and scattered, with many soldiers abandoning their weapons and fleeing.

Soon, the war ended, Guo Huai and Lin Ye returned victoriously with their troops, and the city gate slowly opened.

Chu Ze stood on the city wall and said loudly: "Today I will personally lead the battle, kill the enemy general, and defeat the enemy army! Who dares to challenge the might of the Ming Dynasty!"

All the soldiers shouted in unison: "Your Majesty is wise! Long live the Ming Dynasty!"

Outside Tiandu City, the drums of war gradually stopped. The originally noisy battlefield was now in a mess, with corpses strewn all over the ground and blood flowing like a river.

Chu Ze still stood on the city wall, grimly scanning the retreating enemy troops in the distance. The atmosphere inside and outside the city was still tense, and the soldiers all held their weapons tightly, ready for battle.

Qin Yunyun also walked to Chu Ze's side and said softly, "Your Majesty, although the enemy has retreated, I don't know what will happen next. Will they attack again?"

Chu Ze smiled slightly, his eyes still as sharp as a knife, and said coldly: "Yunyun, I know that the Xixia barbarians are unwilling to accept this failure, they must have a trick up their sleeve.

However, I personally led the army to fight, and Tiandu City is impregnable. I am not afraid that they will come again, but I am afraid that they will not come!"

Qin Yunyun nodded slightly, feeling a little comforted, but still did not dare to be careless.

She said softly, "Your Majesty is wise. I firmly believe that Your Majesty can pacify the four directions. However, the situation inside and outside Tiandu City is unstable. I am afraid that other rebels will also take advantage of the opportunity to act!"

Chu Ze heard this and nodded, saying, "That's exactly what I'm worried about.

Although Chen Haitao from Jiangnan claims to be loyal, he may not have ulterior motives behind his back.

And those barbarian tribes outside the city, once they connect with Xixia and Mongolia, they will inevitably become troubles! "

As they were talking, Lin Ye and Guo Huai had already returned to the city. Although their bodies were covered in blood, they looked extremely excited.

Guo Huai bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I have fulfilled your mission and killed the enemy general Tuoba Tianlang. The enemy army has retreated and dared not attack again!"

Lin Ye followed closely behind, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I have completely wiped out the enemy's vanguard and searched the enemy's camp, and found no signs of other large-scale troop movements.

But this victory is only temporary, the enemy has reinforcements in the rear, I am afraid we will have to fight again soon!"

Chu Ze narrowed his eyes, his tone still calm: "I expected that Xixia and Mongolia's wolfish ambitions have not been extinguished. Although Tuoba Tianlang is dead, their leaders have not wavered.

I am not in a hurry to completely destroy them at this moment, but I have to wait for them to reveal more flaws!"

Lin Ye hesitated slightly and asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, Chen Haitao from Jiangnan has something to say. I wonder if I should say it or not?"

Chu Ze's eyes flashed with a sharpness, and he said lightly: "Lin Ye, you have been with me for many years, you can say whatever you want!"

Lin Ye looked a little solemn, and whispered: "Your Majesty, although Chen Haitao claims to be loyal, there are rumors in the martial arts world that he controls the waterways in Jiangnan and recruits soldiers, and it seems that he is secretly making unusual moves.

I am worried that if Xixia and Mongolia join forces to attack the city, Chen Haitao is likely to collude with the foreign enemy, and we must be on guard against being attacked from both sides!"

Chu Ze heard this and pondered for a moment, a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes: "I have already seen through this old fox Chen Haitao.

This time he brought the navy here, ostensibly to help me defend the city, but actually he was spying on the strength of Tiandu City.

I will not touch him for now. I will deal with him after I have completely pacified the border!"

Guo Huai bowed and said, "Your Majesty is wise. I am willing to lead an elite force to closely monitor Chen Haitao's movements. If there is any unusual movement, report it immediately!"

Chu Ze nodded: "I'll leave this matter to you. I want to see when Chen Haitao will show his true colors!" (End of this chapter)
