Daming: At the start of the showdown, Lao Zhu was stunned

Chapter 563: Wherever the sun and moon shine, and wherever the rivers reach, they are all the land of my Ming Dynasty!
The hoofs were thunderous.

The sky was already slightly bright, and there were still traces of the Meng's presence on the ground, but now there was only a mess left.Everyone was disappointed, and Zhang Yu waved his riding whip angrily.

"Your Highness, ran away."

"As expected." Zhu Di's eyes were a little tired.Although he has practiced equestrian skills since he was a child, he is not as familiar with it as Yuan Ren.Spending several days on horseback was quite overwhelming.Not only him, but other Ming army officers and soldiers also had tired looks on their faces.Zhu Di raised his hand and whipped the horse whip towards the buyer: "Your father runs very fast. In which direction will he run?"

"I...I don't know..." Libala, who had been bought, was hung upside down behind the horse all the way, and he was already so upset that he could no longer hold his tongue.Seeing Zhu Di whipping him again, he hurriedly said: "Maybe it's to the west to Oarabu, or maybe it's to the north... King Yan, King Yan, don't fight me, I, I really don't know!"

This seemingly rugged Mongolian man actually burst into tears.

"I said it, but I didn't say it." Zhu Di complained and turned to check the traces on the ground.Although there are many abandoned tents and luggage here, there are not many things like footprints to track outside the camp.The wind on the grassland covered everything completely.

"Your Highness, what's next?" Zhang Yu asked. "How about going back to look for Xu Shuai?"

"No, keep chasing." Zhu Di said.

"The Yuan Lord may be surrounded by a large army of guards. Even if we are lucky enough to catch him, we may not be able to capture him in one fell swoop." Zhang Yu said. "Your Highness, the son of a rich man cannot sit down in the palace, so why not go back and look for another good opportunity..."

"The Yuan Lord fled in a hurry. This is the best opportunity to capture him. If we miss it this time, we don't know how long it will take until we get this opportunity next time." Zhu Di shook his head. "Even if they have a large number of troops, they are just a bunch of chickens and dogs when they are panicked. No matter how bad they are, they can still bite the Yuan people and wait for Xu Shuai's army to come to rescue..."

"Po He Lin can indeed intimidate Bei Yuan. But after all, there is no danger outside the pass. If you want to truly expand the territory of the Ming Dynasty beyond the Great Wall, you must destroy the Yuanting Ancestral Temple..."

"Otherwise, the Yuan Lord will be relieved and summon his soldiers to snatch He Lin again... Do we have to keep fighting with the Yuan people outside the pass?"

"Even so, it can't be done anymore..."

"It all depends on manpower." Zhu Di said decisively and no longer discussed with Zhang Yu whether to retreat.Instead, he looked at Ribala who bought it. "Since this person is no longer useful, let's kill him."

"No... no, King Yan, I'm still useful, I'm still useful..." said Li Bala, who bought it. "I...I am willing to submit to the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty can support me as a puppet emperor just like the Khitan supported Shi Jingtang and the Da Jin supported Liu Yu."

"I would like to worship the Emperor of Ming Dynasty as my adoptive father, be filial to Ming Dynasty from generation to generation, manage the grassland tribes for Ming Dynasty well, and protect the peace and tranquility of Ming Dynasty's northern border for thousands of years..."

This guy has actually read a lot of books, and he also knows about the son-emperor Shi Jingtang and the pseudo-Qi Liu Yu.However, Zhu Di was unmoved at all. What Ming Dynasty wanted now was not just temporary peace and tranquility in northern Xinjiang. "My father is majestic and majestic, walking like a dragon and walking like a tiger. All my brothers from the Zhu family are like crown jewels, and they all have the appearance of a master. You want to be my father's son with a shoehorned face? Why don't you take a pee first and see what he looks like?" Doesn’t it look like it?”

"King Yan, why don't you and I use the Great Wall as a boundary to divide and rule the two countries? If your majesty thinks that my adopted son looks ugly, I can also worship King Yan as my adopted father..."

Zhu Di had already swung his horsewhip and drew a blood mark on Li Bala's face: "Shut up! Are you an ugly guy who still wants to cling to me?"

"Do you know what this word is?" Zhu Di pointed at the flag flying above his head with his riding crop.

"Yes, yes...it's the word 'ming'." The Libala he bought was in pain, but he didn't dare to hide. He reluctantly opened his eyes and took a look and replied.

"It's good to recognize it. The so-called Ming is the combination of the sun and the moon!" "What is the Ming Dynasty? Everything the sun and the moon shine on, and wherever the rivers go, are all the land of our Ming Dynasty!"

"You dare to let me, the Ming Dynasty, divide the Great Wall with you to rule it? What a brave dog!"

Li Bala was whipped again, but this time his heart was trembling.Wherever the sun and moon shine, and where the rivers reach, are they all the land of the Ming Dynasty?What a wild declaration!

The shock that this declaration brought to him felt like déjà vu.He vaguely remembers that when he was young, he was paying homage to his ancestors in the palace of Dadu. For the first time, he heard the words of his ancestor Genghis Khan, "We will turn all the land under the blue sky into the pasture of the Mongols."

The shock of his childhood had faded, and he later forgot this ancestral saying.All the land under the sky?What does it have to do with me.Our ancestors have conquered a huge territory, so why should descendants like me bother with it anymore? We should just enjoy it.

And today, he heard such a heroic statement again, and felt personally the heroic ambition behind it.

This time, however, the Mongols became... enemies of the nation that had made such bold claims.

"King Yan, don't kill me, don't kill me at all, I wish..." Li Bala was still struggling, and his heart became more and more frightened. He looked at the Ming army flag fluttering in front of him, and for some reason he seemed to see it. The invincible Mongolian warriors under the command of our ancestor Genghis Khan.However, even so, he still did not regain the pride of his ancestors. After discovering that Zhu Di signaled Zhang Yu to draw his sword, he began to panic again, but it was too late.

With a "poof", the head fell to the ground.

The blood spilled from the necks of the most superior Mongolian nobles is no clearer and cleaner than the blood spilled from the mouths of the inferior Han people.

"Take some lime and seal the head. It will be useful to bring it back later for the clan sacrifice." Zhu Di said.His grandparents were all forced to death by Yuanting's harsh government. Although he had never met them, bringing a Yuanting clan head back to pay homage was a sign of filial piety.

The Ming Dynasty and Beiyuan have long been fighting to the death, and have no intention of raising puppets on the grassland.Carrying such a Beiyuan clan member all the way is a burden, and even if it is sent to Yitian, it will not be of much use.

Still kill him with one knife.

"Your Highness, what should we do next..." Zhang Yu didn't take the matter of beheading the bought Libala to heart, and wiped the blade with his sleeve very casually, and the blood of the bought Libala made him feel like a mandarin duck. The red color of the jacket became a little darker.Zhu Di was determined to pursue, but he also had to clear the direction.The grassland is vast in all directions, which direction should we look for?

"Go north." Zhu Di said. "Pursue north and leave marks on Xu Shuai along the way."

"I have an intuition that the Yuan Lord must have led everyone to flee north..."

Beiyuan has survived until now, and Oara in the west should have the strongest combat power.If ordinary people think about it, they will definitely think that the Yuan Lord fled to Wala to seek refuge.But Zhu Di's eyes were burning and he was focused on the north.

Of course it's not an intuition, but an unspeakable calculation: He once heard Zhu Su talk about the future of the Ming Dynasty, and clearly remembered Zhu Su saying that in the 21st year of Hongwu in the future, Ming general Lan Yu led his troops to pursue thousands of miles, and was arrested. Yuerhai destroyed the Yuanting ancestral temple.

Since Yuan Ting's first reaction a few years later was to flee to the north, now, the Yuan Lord's first reaction must be to flee to the north.

There is no room for hesitation in the battle formation, just move forward bravely.Zhu Di believed what Zhu Su said, so he decided to lead his army to break through the fishing sea.
