The Ming Dynasty: The most ruthless imperial grandson, Old Zhu begged me not to kill him.

Chapter 149 The generals relieved the siege, Xu Da angrily mobilized his troops.

The leader nodded.

"Never mind anything else, as long as we can complete the mission, that's all that matters. That's Zhu Xiong Ying on that high platform. I'll lead my men to fight our way out as quickly as possible. You guys ignore everything else and head straight for Zhu Xiong Ying!"

Immediately afterwards, he led these men in black, armed with concealed weapons, and created an opening among the spearmen.

Lan Yu inwardly cried out in alarm and rushed down, trying to cover up the breach.

However, at this moment, the commander of the scouts led about a hundred men and rushed in, running directly towards the high platform.

Zhu Yunwen, who was standing to the side, was so frightened that he wet himself. At this moment, he also knew that these people's target was Zhu Xiong Ying.

Perhaps it was to protect themselves, or perhaps it was to divert the blame.

It's unclear where Zhu Yunwen got his confidence from, but he pointed directly at the high platform and shouted.

"The Crown Prince is above me. I'm just a son of a concubine, I'm useless. Please don't kill me!"

These words were spoken in a very loud voice, and everyone present heard them. The people present were filled with disbelief; who would have thought that Zhu Yunwen could say such a thing?

These civil officials secretly cried out in alarm.

At this moment, they actually hoped that Zhu Xiong Ying would die in this assassination.

If Zhu Xiong Ying had died in this assassination attempt, they might have been able to get away with it, but if Zhu Xiong Ying had survived, Zhu Yun Wen would likely be in trouble when he returned.

Given Zhu Yuanzhang's personality, this person had absolutely no chance of turning things around.

The group looked in the direction Zhu Yunwen pointed and, sure enough, saw Zhu Xiong Ying, dressed in full armor, sitting on top.

A group of people rushed towards Zhu Xiong Ying's direction.

Behind Chu Xiong, the three brothers in blue hats stood at the very front, weapons in hand.

"Chang Yuchun's son, Chang Mao, is here. Anyone who's not afraid to die, come and get him!"

The three men stood in front of Zhu Xiong Ying and fought fiercely.

Those around were greatly surprised by this.

They originally thought Chang Mao wasn't very capable, especially after the incident with Nahachu in Longzhou, which led to his being disliked by the Emperor and left to stay in the rear, never to go to the battlefield again. But now he has shown extraordinary bravery, especially his martial arts skills, which are truly astonishing.

The commander of the scouts and Chang Mao were locked in a fierce battle.

The commander was utterly astonished. He was considered one of the best fighters in the Yuan Dynasty, yet he had managed to fight this person to a draw.

Upon hearing that this person was Chang Yuchun's son, a murderous glint flashed in his eyes.

Back on the battlefield, Chang Yuchun was always at the forefront of every battle, and many of his men died at his hands.

At this moment, Duke Xu Da of Wei led a group of people to fill the gap in time. Looking at Chang Mao's heroic appearance, he couldn't help but praise him loudly.

"As expected of Brother Chang's son, truly a tiger father begets no dog son!"

Suddenly, a commotion broke out outside, and a troop of cavalry charged directly in that direction.

The leader, wielding a long spear, charged into the battlefield first.

"Xu Yungong, son of Duke Xu Da of Wei, is here! Traitor, prepare to die!"

Seeing the billowing smoke in the distance, Xu Yungong knew something must have happened inside, so he led his men out.

Unexpectedly, they encountered a group of men in black blocking their way.

Left with no other choice, he had to abandon his infantry and charge forward with his only three hundred cavalry.

These three hundred cavalrymen descended like divine soldiers, charging into the battlefield and causing a wave of panic among the men in black.

However, the scouts were all rigorously trained and would never abandon their missions under any circumstances.

The two sides clashed directly.

Just as the battle reached its climax, a man suddenly rushed forward. "Prince Zhu Gang of Jin is here! Traitor, prepare to die!"

When Prince Yan, Zhu Di, heard that his third son, Prince Jin, had come out, his eyes lit up. It seemed their plan had succeeded.

Suddenly, a group of soldiers appeared behind Prince Zhu Gang of Jin. Unlike the other soldiers, these soldiers wore special tight-fitting clothes and each held a short knife. When they rushed into the battlefield, they were like tigers among sheep. Each of them was ruthless and used deadly moves as soon as they made a move.

Although there were only a hundred or so people, they inflicted great casualties on these men in black.

The commander of the scouts looked completely incredulous.

"How is this possible? How can these people have such formidable fighting power?"

The people standing nearby were a little scared.

"Commander, let's retreat. With these people around, we might fall into a trap!"

According to their plan, these reinforcements could not have arrived so quickly. At this moment, he looked up at the calm and composed Zhu Xiong Ying, his face extremely ugly.

"It seems you knew about our actions all along. Damn it, what a brilliant plan! If we had let you grow stronger, our Great Yuan would have been in grave danger!"

After saying that, he rushed straight towards Zhu Xiong Ying's direction.

Unfortunately, he missed his best opportunity. Now, with so many soldiers blocking his view, Zhu Xiong Ying is getting closer and closer, but everyone around him has fallen.

In a fit of rage, he threw his weapon directly in the direction of Zhu Xiong Ying.

Chang Sheng had already noticed that he was instantly cleaved in two with a single strike.

The commander of the scouts sighed as he watched his last move miss. It seemed that today's mission was doomed.

With the combined efforts of Zhu Yungong and Prince Jin, Zhu Gang, the situation was quickly brought under control.

Prince Zhu Gang of Jin looked at his grandson Zhu Xiong Ying and said.

"Your Highness, all the enemies have now been captured. Among them were some officials and palace staff in Yingtian Prefecture who had tried to take advantage of the chaos to attack Yingtian Prefecture and the palace. They have also been taken into custody!"

Zhu Xiong Ying smiled and nodded upon hearing this.

"Third Uncle, you've done a great job this time. I will definitely report this to Grandfather later!"

Upon hearing this, Prince Zhu Gang of Jin grinned.

"Xiongying, you're too kind. We're all family. It's only right for an uncle to help his nephew!"

Those following Zhu Xiong Ying were taken aback.

It turns out that after all this time, His Highness the Crown Prince knew about this matter.

At this moment, some officials looked at Zhu Xiong Ying with resentment in their eyes.

Since Zhu Xiong Ying knew about this, why didn't she tell them, causing them to be so frightened? Zhu Yun Wen was still lying on the ground, not yet realizing what had happened, only knowing that he had been saved.

Zhu Xiong Ying turned his gaze to Xu Da, the Duke of Wei, who was standing to the side.

Xu Da immediately understood and stepped forward.

"These people are so despicable, daring to touch the Grandson of the Regent of the Great Ming Dynasty! I will not let them get away with this, Fu Youde!"

Fu Youde stepped forward.

"The general is here!"

"Immediately send a message to the commander of the Forty-Seven Northern Guards, ordering him to capture the enemy with all his might, and not let a single one escape!"

The court officials looked on incredulously.

"What? Xu Da is actually going to mobilize troops? And forty-seven guards at that?"
