Chapter 350

Datong, camp outside the city,

When Anda learned of what happened last night, he was stunned on the spot.

Because he hadn't sent anyone to assassinate Qiu Luan at all!

"Great Khan, this is very likely those Southerners framing you!"

When the military advisor beside Anda learned of this, he immediately guessed this possibility.

Because Southerners loved internal strife the most; it was very likely that Qiu Luan died at the hands of his own people!

"Damn Southerners, they are truly too cunning, actually letting me, the Great Khan, help them take the blame!"

Speaking angrily, Anda couldn't help but scold.

But just as Anda's camp was filled with shared hatred, the atmosphere inside Datong city was also very wrong.

Inside the Regional Commander's Mansion,

Zhang Cheng stood to the side, looking at Qiu Luan covered with a white cloth, his whole person very serious: "Now that the Regional Commander has been assassinated, I'm afraid we are also hard to absolve from blame!"

Hearing Zhang Cheng say this, the generals beside him also felt distressed one after another.

Because Qiu Luan was the newly appointed Regional Commander; he had been in Datong for less than two days, no songs were sung, no dances were danced, and the person was gone. Whoever this happened to, they couldn't accept it!

And if the Jiajing Emperor knew, he would think they in Datong were excluding outsiders?

After all, everyone guessed that Anda couldn't have assassinated Qiu Luan.

If they fought openly and honestly, they could rub Qiu Luan on the ground, why play these tricks?

Sweeping his gaze over all the generals before him, Zhang Cheng said: "Now the most urgent task is, before being judged for crimes, everyone should find their own connections. Anyway, I am backed by the Embroidered Uniform Guard, but I don't know about you all!"

"I beg Lord Zhang to save us!"

Seeing Zhang Cheng say this, many generals prayed one after another.

Because this matter, if small it's not small, if big it's also big!

The Regional Commander was assassinated on his second day in office; who would believe there was no problem in Datong!

But everyone suspected many colleagues, yet no one dared to suspect Zhang Cheng.

Because he was an Embroidered Uniform Guard, it was impossible for him to do such a thing!

And it was precisely this kind of thinking by everyone that allowed Zhang Cheng to complete an operation of "hiding in plain sight"!

Just like Bai Yutang back then, she was hiding inside the Kaifeng Prefecture; who would dare believe that!

"The only plan now is to perform meritorious service!"

His eyes flashing, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but look at the crowd in Datong.

"But Lord Zhang, Datong only has forty thousand garrison troops!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng, the Vice Regional Commander hurriedly spoke up.

"So what if there are forty thousand? Forty thousand is also an advantage for us!"

Looking at the Vice Regional Commander, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but slap the table and roar: "If we don't succeed today, everyone just wait to meet at the vegetable market execution ground!"

Gritting his teeth and looking at Zhang Cheng, the Vice Regional Commander said: "Fighting against Anda's cavalry is really unfavorable for us!"

"I will be the vanguard, charging directly into the enemy camp. If I die in battle, it's my bad luck, but if we succeed, everyone might as well think about it: not only will there be no crime, but we might even be promoted three ranks!"

Looking at the crowd before him, Zhang Cheng said: "My brothers in the Embroidered Uniform Guard are all not afraid of death; it just depends on how you soldiers are now!"

"Let's do it. Anyway, the Regional Commander is dead, and the imperial court's condemnation will come down in a few days. When that time comes, what will we do!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng, the guerrilla general beside him also hurriedly roared.

Because to climb to this step, everyone had gone through more than ten years of military life.

Now, to be the scapegoat for the death of this unlucky guy Qiu Luan, who could accept that!

Hearing the words of the guerrilla general before them, many Datong generals also agreed one after another.

Attacking outward, although success wasn't certain, at least there was a glimmer of life.

But if they waited for the people sent by His Majesty to take over Datong, then they would all be judged for their crimes!

After nightfall, the soldiers who were putting on their armor fell silent one after another.

Standing above, Zhang Cheng said: "Today's battle is not for glory, but for the Great Ming, because behind us, there is no way to retreat. Once Anda breaks through, the people who will suffer behind us will be your fathers, elders, family, and friends..."

"The Ming Army is mighty!"

Drawing his horse-slaying saber, Zhang Cheng roared.

"Long live the Ming Army!"

Roaring, the gate was seen being slowly opened.

And just at this moment, Zhang Cheng, who had mounted his horse, immediately roared: "Kill!"

"Kill!"

Following behind Zhang Cheng, Ding Xiu also immediately drew his Miao saber and dropped the scabbard.

Accompanied by five hundred Krieg soldiers following closely behind, three thousand cavalrymen also followed fiercely.

"I don't know if his plan can succeed!"

Standing on the battlements, the Vice Regional Commander couldn't help but speak up.

"Success or failure depends on tonight!"

Looking into the distance, many people became serious one after another.

Leading the way in front, Zhang Cheng took the cavalry to bypass the patrols and then launched a charge at an extremely fast speed. When the people in the large tent sensed something was wrong, they were immediately stunned on the spot.

Because in the middle of the night, where did the galloping sound of hooves come from?

"It's bad, enemy attack, the Ming Army is here!"

Roaring, a Mongol immediately shouted angrily.

And just after a large number of people got up, they saw Zhang Cheng, wearing armor, coming head-on, lifting his hand to flip the anti-cavalry obstacles away.

"Clatter!"

Looking up at the anti-cavalry obstacles flying over their heads, the Mongols were astonished: "Eternal Blue Heaven, what kind of monster is this..."

"Swish!"

The horse-slaying saber fell, Zhang Cheng swung it backhanded, and then roared: "Kill!"

"Clatter, clatter!"

The burning torches were lit, immediately causing a continuous fire.

And just as cavalry from all directions rushed over, Zhang Cheng also took out a rough whistle and blew it.

"Beep, beep, beep!"

Under the harsh sound, the Krieg soldiers in the rear immediately became crazy, charging forward without fear of death.

Facing the silent "roar" of the Krieg soldiers, the original cavalry immediately had their rhythm broken, and were even being pushed back.

Holding the horse-slaying saber to clear the way, Zhang Cheng roared fiercely.

Looking at the monster that seemed like a god descending, many cavalrymen were so scared that their eyes widened.

Because he was simply too terrifying!

"Great Khan, Great Khan, the Ming Army has already attacked, let's retreat quickly!"

Pulling Anda, many grassland warriors hurriedly advised.

"Impossible, I bear the bloodline of the Golden Family, how can I retreat here!"

Roaring, Anda shouted: "Why are they even angrier than me!"

"Because their Regional Commander was killed by you!"

Looking at Anda speechlessly, the military advisor beside him explained.

But looking at the military advisor, Anda roared: "Fart, I didn't!"

Galloping on his horse, the horse-slaying saber in Zhang Cheng's hand swung continuously, setting off waves of blood and gore head-on.

Looking at the brave Zhang Cheng, a Mongol warrior also roared and stepped forward.

However, just at the moment of contact, the opponent was shaken away by the powerful force.

Seeing this scene with his own eyes, Anda swallowed his saliva and said: "Actually, retreating isn't so bad!"

"Where is the Wolf Banner?"

Roaring, Zhang Cheng wiped the blood from his face.

Hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Ding Xiu also pointed to the front and said: "There!"

"Kill!"

Charging out on his horse again, Zhang Cheng rushed toward Anda's direction.

And looking at Zhang Cheng, who was like a demon god, Anda was shocked: "It's bad, he's coming for me!"

Just as Anda finished this sentence, the sound of hooves came from all directions.

After seeing the Mongol camp on fire, the Ming Army inside Datong also rushed over, because now was the time to beat the drowning dog!

"Clatter!"

Not finding Anda, Zhang Cheng backhanded and cut down the Wolf Banner.

Looking at the disappearing Wolf Banner, the Mongols who originally still had the strength to fight lost their confidence instantly and fled in a panic.

"Ah! The Ming Army is mighty!"

Raising the horse-slaying saber in his hand, which had already become notched, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but roar.

"The Ming Army is mighty!"

Hearing Zhang Cheng's roar, the other soldiers also roared one after another.
