THE HEAVENLY SWORDSMAN OF FIRE AND ICE

THE MING KINGDOM

Tang He's words immediately got an agreeable nod from Lan Yu and Zhang Yu Chun.

Zhu Yuan Zhang with a joyful laugh said,

"Well then, I must return immediately to the palace to prepare a feast for the victory of all of us.."

"While the three of you please arrange this prisoner well, after that we can gather to celebrate.."

Zhu Yuan Zhang said happily.

Everyone present there, nodded in agreement, a moment later the large entourage immediately moved back into Kai Feng city.

They headed straight for the palace.

Except for Tang He, Lan Yu, and Zhang Yu Chun and his troops, they had to organize the prisoners.

Organizing a victory party at their team camp.

After that, they were only able to catch up to the palace, to attend the celebratory feast that Zhu Yuan Zhang had deliberately held to celebrate their great victory.

While at Kai Feng was rejoicing, in the city of Beijing far north there.

A few days later, after the great defeat the Mongol forces at Kai Feng reached the palace and were heard by Kublai Khan.

Kublai Khan became very disappointed, upset, sad and anxious.

Especially after he heard about his beloved sister and general.

One was lost without a trace, most likely dead outweighing the possibility of life.

Others were struck by lightning in the battlefield.

The heart of Kublai Khan's thoughts and feelings are really disturbed, this affects his health.

Kublai Khan began to fall ill, he was forced to give up his throne to be continued by his young son, under the supervision of his confidants.

Kublai Khan fell ill and eventually died.

Zhu Yuan Zhang and some of his trusted generals, under the support of Nan Thian, Kim Kim and Thian Yi.

They continued to move towards capturing the area of Luo Yang, Xi an, Tai Yuan, Lin An.

After spending almost 8 years, it seized the entire territory of Mongolian power.

They had just entered the capital Beijing.

After they managed to seize the entire village and important cities that were around the capital Beijing.

Finally the capital of Beijing after going through a siege and bombarded by cannon attacks and fire arrows, the defense of Beijing city finally broke down.

The last king of the Yuan dynasty, Togan Temur Khan surrendered to Zhu Yuan Zhang.

After conquering the Mongol Empire, it drove out the remaining Mongolian rebels, as far north as the Great Wall.

Zhu Yuan Zhang was still worried about the rest of the Mongolian rebel forces fleeing to the North.

He immediately sent Xu Da as commander, leading Lan Yu, Zhang Yuchun and Tang He with 200,000 Ming kingdom troops.

Conducting a military campaign to destroy the North beyond the great wall .

Inland Mongolia, seeking out and eradicating the remaining Mongolian rebels to their roots.

Zhang Yu Chun was killed in the North, on his way back to the capital, after his great victory in the Northern campaign against the rest of the Mongolian rebels.

The rest, like Xu Da, Lan Yu and Tang He, they all earned the rank, title, as well as the land, treasures and territories of power that Zhu Yuan Zhang endowed right, to gain their sympathy and loyalty.

With the support of his loyal subordinates, Zhu Yuan Zhang eventually elevated himself to become the first Emperor, the opening emperor of the Ming dynasty state.

After Emperor Zhu Yuan Zhang ascended the throne to become the emperor of the Ming dynasty officially.

He began to remove one by one the generals who were fighting to help him ascend the throne.

Lan Yu was the first victim, who was charged with treason and was later arrested and executed.

After the events of Lan Yu, Chu Yuan Zhang began to withdraw military power from the hands of the great general who helped him ascend the throne.

Tang He himself after returning home from a military campaign in the North, saw the end of the fate of his comrade Lan Yu.

He finally decided to resign his position, resign to become a commoner, then return to his hometown in the south.

Before leaving the capital, Tang He, had time to meet Xu Da and Yue Lin advised the two of them to follow in his footsteps.

He told the two of them, Zhu Zhong Ba Childhood nickname Zhu Yuan Zhang .

The current Zhu Zhong Ba, was no longer the Zhu Zhong Ba they had ever known again.

He was no longer Zhong Ba who had been their friend and brother-in-arms ever again.

Yue Lin had hesitated, but she was tied to the position as a daughter-in-law, she had difficulty resigning despite wanting to.

Xu Da strongly refuted Tang He's opinion, he did not believe Tang He's opinion, who was his childhood friend with Zhu Zhong Ba .

Xu Da, Zhu Zhong Ba, and Tang He, they were childhood friends who grew up together, played, fought, lived a life of devotion, loved to be together.

Until they succeed in achieving success, and achieve their dreams and ideals like today.

Even Zhu Zhong Ba, could join the military, it was also thanks to the recommendation of Xu Da and Tang He, who had first joined the ranks of the red-flag rebel forces of the Ming sect.

Xu Da who did not believe Tang He's advice, after Tang He died, he continued to work and achieve achievements in the military.

His military power continued to expand, his rank continued to rise, his prestige continued to increase, both in the eyes of the people, and among the military, the prestige of Xu DA was very high, not inferior to Zhu Yuan Zhang himself.

Zhu Yuan Zhang had already managed to withdraw all military power from all of his great generals, including the military power of Yue Lin his own son-in-law.

The only one he hasn't managed to pull out is military power Xu Da, his childhood best friend.

Where now is always a wedge and anxiety in his heart.

Asking him directly for no apparent reason, Zhu Yuan Zhang did not dare to do so.

He was afraid that his best friend would rebel if forced.

In addition, his prestige in the eyes of the people will also be damaged.

To appease his own paranoid heart, his throne will one day be usurped.

Zhu Yuan Zhang eventually used the means by proposing a binding family relationship by marrying his crown prince to his daughter Xu Da.

Thus his heart became much calmer, and Xu Da became more and more eager to serve Zhu Yuan Zhang.

He increasingly blamed the attitudes and views of his childhood friend Tang He, who once reminded himself to retreat away from Zhu Yuan Zhang.

Xu Da who is increasingly working really, thanks to his talent in the military.

He added that he had almost no competition, because Yue Lin was no longer in the military.
