, keeping an eye on possible threats. His heartbeat resonated with the approaching sound of horse hooves in the distance, indicating that this night would be extraordinary.
"Uncle Han Wang, everything has been arranged, just waiting for the enemy to invade." Zhu Biao walked quickly, his voice was soft but he could not conceal his nervousness, and his eyes showed both determination and uneasiness. Zhu Di followed closely behind him,
Wearing armor and holding a spear, he exudes a fighting spirit that cannot be underestimated.
"Okay, let's take our respective positions." Zhu Han ordered in a deep voice, with unquestionable majesty in his voice, "Biao'er, I leave the affairs of the city to you, make sure to ensure stability. Di'er, you lead the elite team and wait for the opportunity.
Remember, safety comes first.”
The two of them followed the order and left, while Zhu Han continued to inspect the city wall and inspected every defensive fortification. The night wind howled, bringing with it a biting chill, but it could not dispel the determination in his heart.
Suddenly, fire flashed in the distance, accompanied by the deafening sound of horse hooves, and enemy troops came in like a tide. Arrows pierced the night sky, carrying the breath of death, and shot densely at the city wall. The soldiers guarding the city reacted quickly and raised their hands.
Shield, forming an impenetrable line of defense.
"Stabilize your position and fire arrows to fight back!" Zhu Han roared, his voice cutting through the noise and inspiring every soldier. The arrow towers on the city wall fired at the same time, and thousands of arrows were fired, like black clouds pressing over the city, shooting at the enemy.
The battle instantly became intense, with arrows from both sides intertwining, and the air filled with a strong smell of gunpowder and blood. Zhu Han shuttled between the defense lines, adjusting tactics from time to time to ensure that every defense could receive the most effective support.
"Uncle Hanwang, look over there!" Zhu Di's voice suddenly came, pointing his finger at the enemy's flank. He saw a group of elite enemy troops trying to bypass the main defense line, intending to raid the city gate.
"Di'er, lead your squad to intercept them and fight quickly!" Zhu Han ordered decisively. Upon hearing this, Zhu Di immediately led his squad to rush out like ghosts and attack the enemy's flank.
The night was as dark as thick ink, and there was deathly silence inside and outside the capital. Only the sound of horse hooves from the enemy approaching in the distance was like a low thunder, heralding the coming storm. Zhu Han stood on the towering city wall, his eyes like torches, staring at the distant place.
A horizon gradually illuminated by firelight.
"Uncle Han Wang, the enemy army has approached three miles away. It seems that they are preparing to launch a general attack." Zhu Biao walked quickly to Zhu Han's side, his voice was calm and powerful, revealing a maturity and courage that belied his age. His eyes
Scan the city walls to make sure every defense is flawless.
Zhu Han nodded slightly, his voice low and powerful: "Biao'er, pass the order and get the soldiers ready. Tell them that we are not only protecting this city, but also the foundation of the Ming Dynasty and our home."
Zhu Biao accepted the order and turned to leave, but was stopped by Zhu Han: "Biao'er, there is one more thing that needs attention. The enemy may send agents to sneak into the city. Patrols must be strengthened to ensure the stability of the city and not allow the enemy to take advantage of it.
"
When Zhu Biao heard this, his expression became more solemn and he nodded: "Don't worry, Uncle Han, I have made arrangements for this matter. The Jinyi Guards are searching for suspicious people throughout the city. Once discovered, they will not tolerate it."
After saying this, Zhu Biao left in a hurry, leaving Zhu Han alone to continue patrolling the city wall.
At this time, Zhu Di had led an elite team to ambush in a dense forest outside the city wall, waiting for the opportunity. He held a long gun and stared at the enemy's movements with eyes like an eagle. The team members held their breath and concentrated, waiting for an order.
When it comes down, it will be like a tiger descending from the mountain, giving the enemy a fatal blow.
"Di'er, look at the enemy's formation, it seems there has been a change." Zhu Han's voice suddenly sounded in Zhu Di's ears, and it turned out that he had quietly come to Zhu Di's side.
Zhu Di looked up at the enemy and saw that their formations were beginning to disperse, as if they were preparing to attack from multiple directions at the same time. "Uncle Wang, they want to disperse our forces and defeat them one by one. But we can't let them succeed."
Zhu Han nodded in agreement: "Yes, we must concentrate our superior forces and defeat their main force first. Di'er, you lead a small team to attack from the flank and go straight to its command center. I will arrange a rain of arrows on the city wall to cover you."
A glimmer of excitement flashed in Zhu Di's eyes, and he accepted the order: "I obey, Uncle Wang. I will live up to your trust!"
"Di'er, remember, this raid must be fought quickly and cannot be fought for a long time." Zhu Han lowered his voice, revealing unquestionable majesty in his tone, "Your team is a sharp knife. It must strike directly into the heart of the enemy and catch them off guard.
."
Zhu Di nodded, his eyes shining with determination: "Uncle Wang, don't worry, I will do my best to live up to my mission."
At this moment, a burst of rapid horse hoofbeats broke the tranquility of the night, and the enemy army began to accelerate and was obviously ready for a general attack. On the city wall, the defenders clenched their weapons and stood ready, and the tense atmosphere almost solidified.
"The whole army listens to the order and prepares to meet the enemy!" Zhu Han's voice echoed in the night sky and spread throughout the city wall. Hearing the words, the soldiers perked up and straightened their backs, preparing for the coming fierce battle.
As the enemy approached, arrows rained down like dark clouds. Arrows suddenly flew from the city wall, intertwined with the enemy's arrows. The air was filled with the pungent smell of gunpowder and the strong smell of blood, which made people feel uncomfortable.

Zhu Han stood at the top of the city, calmly observing the battle situation and adjusting his defense strategy from time to time.
"Let go!" Following Zhu Han's order, the trebuchet on the city head roared, and huge stones cut through the night sky and slammed into the enemy camp. The enemy's formation was in chaos, and many people were hit.
His flesh and blood were bruised, and screams came one after another.
"What a good opportunity!" Upon seeing this, Zhu Han's eyes flashed with joy, "Di'er, now is the best time to make a surprise attack!"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Di immediately waved his hand to signal the team members to prepare for action. They slid down the city wall silently like ghosts, and quickly approached the enemy's flank under the cover of night.

The enemy's outer defense line.
The enemy commander was horrified when he saw this, and quickly mobilized troops to intercept. However, the members of Zhu Di's team were all very skilled. They either slashed with knives or stabbed with spears, and soon cut through the enemy's ranks.
Bloody road.
"Quick! Take the enemy general's head directly!" Zhu Di's voice was low and powerful, echoing in the night sky, and his eyes flashed with determination and coldness. The team members followed closely, and their movements were quick and tacit. Every time
Swinging the sword, every thrust was extremely precise, as if every attack was for the ultimate victory.

people, trying to stop their offensive.
However, Zhu Di and his team members were already prepared. Facing the swarming enemy troops, they not only did not panic at all, but responded more calmly. The spear in Zhu Di's hand was like a dragon swimming out of the sea, and every wave was accompanied by
Watching the enemy's fall. While attacking, he observed the battlefield situation and looked for the best breakthrough point.
"There is a flaw on the left side!" Zhu Di suddenly shouted, and then he dodged, and under the cover of night and chaos, he suddenly rushed to the left side. His movements were as fast as lightning, and he penetrated the enemy's side in an instant.
The defense line is approaching the commander.
The commander was shocked when he saw this. He never expected Zhu Di to be so brave, and he was at a loss for a moment. However, as a battle-hardened general, he quickly regained his composure and quickly drew his sword to face the enemy.
"Well done!" Zhu Di sneered, and the spear in his hand suddenly accelerated, piercing the commander with a roar of wind. The commander hurriedly waved his sword to block, and the two soldiers met, sparks flying. However, Zhu Di's power was obviously stronger.
One step ahead, he used the impact of the blow to dodge again, bypassing the commander's defense, and shot him directly at the throat.
"No -" the commander shouted desperately, but before he finished speaking, his voice stopped abruptly. Zhu Di's spear had penetrated his throat accurately, and blood spurted out, dyeing his battle red.
robe.
With the fall of the commander, the enemy army suddenly fell into chaos. They lost the core of their leadership, their morale plummeted, and they began to flee in all directions. Seeing this, Zhu Di immediately waved his hand to the team members to pursue the victory and not give the enemy any breathing space.
Chance.
"Kill!" Zhu Di's voice resounded through the night sky like thunder. He led his team members to rush into the enemy army like tigers descending the mountain. Their attack was so powerful that enemy soldiers fell one after another wherever they passed. Zhu Di took the lead.
, his spear was unstoppable wherever it went, becoming a nightmare for the enemy.
On the city wall, Zhu Han was overjoyed when he saw this. He immediately ordered the city defense to be strengthened, and at the same time ordered people to prepare kerosene, boulders and other defensive equipment in case of emergency.
"Uncle Hanwang, the enemy's base camp has been breached by our army!" At this time, a messenger hurried over to report.
"Okay!" Zhu Han became more energetic after hearing this. He immediately ordered the entire army to attack to cooperate with Zhu Di's raid to form a pincer attack on the enemy.
Following Zhu Han's order, the defenders on the city wall poured out of the city wall to join Zhu Di's team members. They rushed towards the enemy like an unstoppable torrent and vowed to completely defeat the enemy.
The shouts of killing shook the earth in the night, and the light of fire and the shadows of swords intertwined into one.
"Di'er did a great job!" Zhu Han stood on the city wall and looked at Zhu Di's figure galloping among the enemy troops, and he couldn't help but feel proud in his heart.
"Uncle Wang, thank you very much." Zhu Di's voice came from the battlefield, although it was a bit breathy but still firm and powerful, "The victory in this battle depends entirely on the sacrifice of the soldiers and Uncle Wang's wise command."
"Haha, well said!" Zhu Han laughed loudly after hearing this. His laughter echoed in the night sky, full of heroism and confidence, "After this battle, my Ming soldiers will be so powerful that no one will dare to underestimate my Ming Dynasty!"
Zhu Han's laughter echoed in the night sky, stirring the hearts of every soldier guarding the city. His eyes were like a torch, scanning the battlefield to ensure that every detail was under control. Zhu Biao stood next to him, also attracted by this
Infected by pride, his eyes sparkled with perseverance and determination.
"Uncle Hanwang, in this battle we not only defended the capital, but also revived the morale of the Ming Dynasty soldiers." Zhu Biao's voice was full of admiration, "Next, how should we consolidate the results and prevent the enemy from coming back?"
Zhu Han put away his smile, pondered for a moment and then said in a deep voice: "Biao'er, although we have won this battle, we cannot take it lightly. Although the enemy retreats, there is no guarantee that they will not wait for an opportunity to attack again. We need to immediately strengthen the defenses of the capital and dispatch scouts at the same time.
Detect the enemy's movements and know yourself and the enemy."
Zhu Biao nodded in agreement: "What Uncle Han Wang said is absolutely true. My nephew will immediately start arranging the waiting arrangements to ensure that the intelligence around the capital is unimpeded."
Zhu Han nodded slightly and turned his eyes to the busy soldiers below the city: "In addition, we need to reward the three armies to appease the soldiers for their hard work in the bloody battle. At the same time, we must strengthen public security in the city to prevent unrest caused by post-war chaos."
Zhu Biao accepted the order and left, admiring Zhu Han even more for his foresight.
As Zhu Biao left, Zhu Han stood alone on the city wall, looking at the battlefield gradually calming down in the distance, but his heart did not relax at all.
In the early morning of the next day, the sun penetrated the mist and shone on the streets and alleys of the capital. Zhu Han and Zhu Biao inspected the post-war capital together, and saw that the people had gradually returned to their former tranquility, shops were open, and the streets were noisy.
The thrilling battle last night never happened.
"Uncle Hanwang, it seems that the people were not too panicked because of last night's battle." Zhu Biao said softly, with a hint of relief in his tone.

, to ensure that they no longer suffer from war.”
The two of them were talking and walking, and unknowingly they came to a house that was damaged by the war. Zhu Han stopped and looked at the dilapidated walls and scattered rubble, frowning.
"This place needs to be repaired immediately to prevent the people from becoming homeless." Zhu Han said solemnly, and then turned to the attendants beside him and said, "Go to the Ministry of Industry and allocate money and supplies as soon as possible.
Repair damaged residences.”
The attendants took the order and left, while Zhu Han and Zhu Biao continued to move forward, inspecting every damage in the capital. Every brick and tile was related to the safety of the people, and there was no room for negligence.
Walking to a market, Zhu Han noticed that several vendors were busy sorting out their goods and preparing to open to welcome customers. He walked up and had a cordial conversation with the vendors, asking them about their losses and needs.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, although we were a little frightened, fortunately we didn't suffer much loss." An old merchant answered with his hands in hand, with gratitude in his eyes. "Thanks to the imperial court sending troops to defend the city in time, we are safe and sound."
When Zhu Han heard this, he felt a little relieved: "You are the foundation of the Ming Dynasty, and the court will protect you with all its strength. If you have any difficulties, feel free to ask the government for help."
The vendors nodded repeatedly, grateful for Zhu Han's care. Zhu Han and Zhu Biao inspected the market to ensure that the people's lives had gradually returned to normal, and then left with peace of mind.
Returning to the palace, Zhu Han immediately summoned his close aides to discuss postwar reconstruction and defense matters. In the study, candlelight flickered, reflecting his resolute face.
"Everyone, although we won last night's battle, the defenses of the capital still need to be strengthened." Zhu Han said solemnly, "I would like to mobilize craftsmen and materials immediately to reinforce and repair key parts such as the city walls and arrow towers."
A staff member stood up and responded: "Don't worry, Your Highness, I will make arrangements immediately to ensure the smooth progress of the project."
Zhu Han nodded slightly and glanced at everyone: "In addition, we need to strengthen patrols and security in the capital to prevent enemy troops from sneaking into the city."
Another staff member cupped his hands and said, "What your Highness said is absolutely true. We have ordered the Jinyi Guards to strengthen interrogations in the city to ensure that everyone entering and leaving the capital can find out their identity."
Zhu Han nodded with satisfaction and continued his deployment: "Also, appeasing the people after the war cannot be ignored. I intend to immediately allocate money and food to help the people affected by the disaster and ensure that they live a worry-free life."
