Chapter 426 The Powerless Mahmud
He is extremely loyal to me, and now that I have been captured, he will surely not let it go, so he will definitely come to my rescue in the future.

Could it be that these people are after him?

At this moment, he looked at Chang Sheng beside him with some disbelief.

"Do you intend to use me to lure Boromulu out?"

Chang Sheng was extremely surprised. Although Mahmud was young, he had already guessed the whole picture from a single spot. If this person were allowed to grow up, he would definitely have a significant impact on their Ming Dynasty in the future.

At this moment, Chang Sheng yawned and said with a smile.

"I didn't expect you to have guessed it already. Yes, it's exactly what you thought. This person under your command is really an unstable factor outside. In that case, let's just take him down. That way, there won't be any other problems. That shouldn't be a problem, right?"

Upon hearing this, Mahmud's face turned extremely ugly, and he let out a cold snort.

.

"Bolomuru's troops are the most elite troops under my command. They are no weaker than the troops under the former King Qi. You think you can defeat him so easily? You will definitely not succeed this time!"

Chang Sheng smiled. He had never underestimated anyone, so he had prepared a lot this time to ensure everything went smoothly.

"Of course, I have indeed experienced the prowess of this general under your command. However, even the strongest can be overwhelmed by a large force. If this man has already fallen into the trap, how far do you think his troops can run in the face of the pursuit of my Ming army?"

"You are his leader, and he is your most loyal general. If he finds out about this, he will definitely come to save you!"

"Once I know where he is, dealing with him will be a piece of cake for me!"

At this moment, Chang Sheng said confidently.

Mahmud sighed. Although he wanted to deny it, it was indeed the case.

People on the grasslands are as swift as the wind, making them difficult to capture. However, if their tracks are discovered and they are surrounded, given the current weaponry of the Ming Dynasty, it would be tantamount to suicide.

At this moment, a deep sense of powerlessness rose in his heart, his face turned ugly, and he looked at Chang Sheng and said.

"You can kill me, but please spare my brothers in my tribe. The attack on the Ming Dynasty and the luring of the Chagatai Khanate were my ideas, and they had nothing to do with it!"

Chang Sheng smiled and said.

"That's not something you should be worrying about. Once we return to Yingtian Prefecture, I believe His Majesty and His Highness the Crown Prince will give you a satisfactory answer!"

"Just stay put until then. Don't worry, the Ming Dynasty won't treat its enemies as cruelly as you have!"

"You don't need to worry about food and drink during this time; you definitely won't be shortchanged!"

Mahmud sighed as the two thousand soldiers escorted him.

Just after leaving the three northern cities, they were discovered by the men sent by Boromulu to monitor the area. They saw that the person in the prison cart was none other than Mahmud and breathed a sigh of relief. They then relayed the news back to Boromulu, who was lying in ambush on the road. Upon hearing this news, Boromulu's eyes lit up.

"As expected, our information was accurate. It seems these guys really are going to take their leader to their capital, Yingtianfu!"

"Order the troops under your command to prepare."

We must rescue the leader this time.

"At that moment, a bad premonition suddenly arose in his heart, and he hurriedly asked, 'By the way, besides those two thousand soldiers, have any other troops been moved?'"

The man shook his head.

"Apart from these two thousand years, there have been no other troop movements!"

After receiving this answer, Bolomuru breathed a sigh of relief. He figured he must have been overthinking things. Right now, the Ming Dynasty didn't have enough troops to threaten him. Even if they knew his thoughts, they wouldn't be able to send enough forces in a short time.

Soon, the Ming army, escorting the prison carts, arrived at a valley. The valley was densely forested, with many rocks obscuring the view. This place was arguably the most dangerous place for them on their southward journey. Once they passed through this place, they would reach the border. After entering the border, even if these people had great abilities, they would find it difficult to escape.

The leading general looked around warily and spoke.

"Order the brothers to be alert!"

"There might be an ambush here!"

His men nodded upon hearing this and slowly made their way into the forest.

Suddenly, shouts of battle erupted from all around, and hordes of soldiers surged toward them like a tidal wave.

The Ming army showed no panic and immediately formed a defensive formation to launch an attack.

Boromulu launched several attacks, but each one was repelled, and his face turned extremely pale.

"I never imagined that the Ming army would be so powerful. We have launched a continuous attack with so many of our men, and we have more of them in terms of both terrain and numbers. I never thought they could hold out for so long!"

The commander of ten thousand men beside him nodded in agreement.

"Yes, the Ming army is much stronger than before, so we can't let our guard down!"

"But it's not a big problem. They're surrounded in this place now, and no one can break out. Sooner or later we'll be able to wear them down!"

"Their weapons are like our bows and arrows; they are finite. Once they are used up, these people will be lambs to the slaughter for us!"

Boromulu nodded after hearing this.

"Let our soldiers stay behind for now, and let the soldiers from the other tribes charge ahead!"

The lieutenant hesitated upon hearing this before speaking.

"General, won't this provoke resistance from those people? They were all forcibly recruited into the tribe, so they don't have much loyalty to us!"

"If we keep sending them to their deaths like this, these people will probably have something to say!"

Bolomuru snorted coldly.

"Even if they have objections, so what? We are strong enough that they have no choice but to submit. Besides, these people's weapons are really strange. We don't have many of our own brothers left. Can you really bear to watch our own brothers die in battle?"

Boromulu's thinking was simple: since this battle would inevitably require human lives, he might as well use these unstable factors, since these people weren't particularly loyal to him anyway.
