Daming: After self-explosive time travel, Lao Zhu's mentality collapsed

Qin Yunyun was listening and whispered, "Your Majesty, Chen Haitao is a cunning man. Although I am not familiar with military affairs, I feel that we should not take it lightly!"

Chu Ze patted her hand gently and said with a faint smile: "Don't worry, Yunyun, I have my own plans in mind.

This person is just taking advantage of my power to seek temporary benefits. I can deal with him at any time!"

After that, Chu Ze looked towards the battlefield in the distance, his tone heavy and firm: "Although we have won the battle on the border, I know that this battle is just the beginning.

Xixia and Mongolia will never give up easily.

"Guo Huai, reorganize the troops immediately. Lin Ye, you and Lu Bing will search inside and outside Tiandu City. If there are spies hiding, kill them immediately. I will never allow any disaster!"

Guo Huai and Lin Ye responded in unison: "I obey your command!"

The two men then turned and left, but the tense atmosphere in Tiandu City had not yet dissipated.

Chu Ze stood on the city wall with his hands behind his back, looking at the vague mountains in the distance, which was the direction of the Western Xia and Mongolian barbarians.

Although the Ming army had a slight advantage in this battle, he knew that this was only a temporary calm and the real test was still ahead.

At this moment, the sky in the distance gradually became gloomy, and the wind swept away the clouds, as if foreshadowing the coming of a bigger storm.

Chu Ze remained calm, gently gripping the black gold sword at his waist, and whispered to himself: "The storm is coming, I am ready, let them come!"

Qin Yunyun stood aside, looking at the sky, feeling vaguely uneasy but speechless.

After a moment, Chu Ze turned around and walked slowly towards the city, his tone calm but unquestionable: "Yunyun, you should also go back to the palace to rest, I will handle everything!"

Qin Yunyun knew what he meant, and lowered her head and said, "I understand, but please take care of your health, Your Majesty!"

Chu Ze chuckled: "My body is not dead yet, but this Tiandu City must not be lost!"

The night was as dark as ink. The lights in Tiandu City illuminated all around. Under the towering city walls, the soldiers were still on high alert, their armor flickering in the firelight.

Chu Ze stood alone on the city wall with a deep look in his eyes.

The footsteps behind him were getting closer. Lu Bing strode over and said with a folded hand, "Your Majesty, I have inspected the defense inside and outside the city. Everything is normal!"

Chu Ze nodded slightly and said calmly: "I have my own plans in mind. Although the enemy has retreated, their wolfish ambitions are still alive. We must not slack off tonight!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Bing bowed his hands solemnly and said, "Your Majesty is absolutely right.

The Xixia barbarians are accustomed to night attacks, so I have sent more elite soldiers to patrol all night long!"

Chu Ze hesitated for a moment, then said softly: "Lu Bing, I am not afraid of their surprise attack, but I am afraid of internal rebellion.

Go and check out the rest of the city, especially the people in the Jiangnan Water Fort. I suspect they are restless!"

Lu Bing frowned slightly, and understood what he meant: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I will search carefully and will not let go of any suspicious person!"

After saying this, he turned and walked away in a hurry, disappearing into the night.

On the city wall, Chu Ze stood alone for a long time, with his hands behind his back, feeling the cold wind blowing towards him.

Suddenly, a fire flickered in the city, and there seemed to be some commotion.

Chu Ze frowned slightly and was about to give the order to check when he saw Lin Ye walking quickly from a distance with a serious look on his face.

"Your Majesty, there is an unusual movement in the city!" Lin Ye whispered as soon as he arrived.

Chu Ze's eyes glared: "What's the matter?"

Lin Ye bowed and said: "Chen Haitao from Jiangnan Water Village is hosting a banquet for a group of heroes in the city. His words at the banquet were quite arrogant, and he seemed to have a rebellious heart.

I have secretly investigated and found that he mentioned many times in his speech that he was secretly communicating with Xixia, which makes him very suspicious of colluding with the enemy! "

Chu Ze sneered when he heard this: "I was right about this old fox Chen Haitao. On the surface, he was helping me defend the city, but secretly he was trying to cause chaos. He really overestimates his own abilities!"

Lin Ye's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and he whispered, "Your Majesty, should we send troops to capture him immediately to prevent future troubles?"

Chu Ze hesitated for a moment, then shook his head: "No hurry, I have already seen through his thoughts, but if we act rashly, we may alert the enemy.

Although Chen Haitao is cunning, he has not really taken any action yet.

I want him to fall into my trap and then capture him in one fell swoop!"

Lin Ye bowed and said, "Your Majesty is wise, but I am worried that if he joins forces with the external enemies, the danger to Tiandu City may be unbearable!"

Chu Ze's eyes were like torches, and he said calmly: "I have already made arrangements.

Chen Haitao is just a chess piece. If he dares to take any action, I will wipe him out completely.

Lin Ye, you should keep a close eye on him and don't let him have a chance to turn the tables! "

Lin Ye knew that Chu Ze was very careful, so he didn't dare to say anything more. He cupped his hands and said, "I understand. I will definitely monitor Chen Haitao's movements in secret!"

Chu Ze waved his hand, signaling Lin Ye to step back.

At this moment, bursts of horn sounds suddenly came from the distant night sky. The low horn sounds seemed to come from ancient times, carrying a heavy sense of war, shaking the night sky of Tiandu City.

Chu Ze's eyes focused instantly, and he said coldly: "What a Xixia barbarian, he can't hold back so soon!"

Soon, a messenger from the city came running over and reported urgently: "Your Majesty, a large group of enemy troops are heading east of our city, and the vanguard cavalry is already fifty miles away!"

Chu Ze heard this, his eyes became more fierce, and he said in a deep voice: "I expected that they would not retreat easily, it seems that this time it is going to be a decisive battle!"

He thought for a moment, then decisively ordered: "Inform the entire army, all garrisons immediately enter a wartime state and strictly guard against enemy night attacks.

If any enemy soldiers approach, counterattack immediately! "

The messenger received the order and left quickly. The trumpets sounded again all around. The situation inside and outside Tiandu City suddenly became tense, and the soldiers all entered a state of combat readiness.

The swords flashed, the armor clanged in the firelight, the war horses neighed incessantly, and the iron hooves stepped on the solid ground, making a dull sound.

Chu Ze stood on the city wall, his eyes as sharp as an eagle.

He knew very well that if he lost this battle, the Ming Dynasty would be in danger. Once Tiandu City was lost, the joint forces of Western Xia and Mongolia would be able to march straight in.

However, he also understood that victory depends not only on military force, but also on strategy.

The wind in the city gradually became colder, and the battle flags fluttered in the wind.

Chu Ze stared quietly into the distance, his heart feeling as if it were a thousand-pound stone, but his face remained extremely calm.

He knew very well that the outcome of this war was related to the fate of the Ming Dynasty.

Soon, Lu Bing came again and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty, everything is ready in the city. The soldiers have entered a defensive state and are fully prepared for battle!"

Chu Ze nodded: "Okay! I will personally stay in the city, and I will make the Xixia barbarians suffer the consequences in this battle!"

Lu Bing clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, if you lead the army in person, you will surely be able to defeat the enemy! I am willing to live and die with Your Majesty!"

Chu Ze chuckled and looked at the enemy's movements in the distance: "I want to see what these Xixia and Mongolian coalition forces are capable of.

In this battle, I will not only defeat them, but also make them unable to fight again!"

The night was dark, the wind was rumbling through the city walls, and the atmosphere was becoming increasingly tense, as if a battle was about to break out. (End of this chapter)
