Let’s not talk about how incompetent the Japanese soldiers were. Let’s look at the Ming army soldiers. The long-handled axes of the heavy armored infantrymen would only need one hit to seriously injure them if not kill them. The power of this long-handled axe is simply incomparable to the ridiculous Japanese swords.

Let’s talk about the strong bows and crossbows of the Ming army. The Ming army’s bows were not as long as those of the Japanese, but they were well-made and could be compared with the Shenbi bows of the Song Dynasty. With one iron arrow shot out, the Japanese, without the protection of heavy armor, could at least penetrate one person and then kill him.

In this battle, the Ming army suffered no disadvantage except in terms of numbers.

The emperor is an emperor who can lead by example, and Zhao Min's talent as a commander is recognized by the world. The morale of the soldiers is high, and they are equipped with excellent armor and equipment. Almost all of them are willing to sacrifice their lives.

At this moment, Inoue Yu was really at his wit's end. Although he had an army of 200,000 soldiers, today, his army had only advanced more than 20 miles and had no time to rest before they went straight into battle. Moreover, the battle that started was a decisive battle. Such a swift offensive and such a selfless charge were something they had never experienced in their lives.

Wherever the Ming army passed, there were corpses of Japanese soldiers. In other words, the Ming army rushed forward by stepping on the corpses of Japanese soldiers. How could this not scare the Japanese army?

In the Ming army, whoever rushes to the front is glorious. As for the families of these Ming army soldiers, Zhang Wuji has already made arrangements. Even if they die in battle, their wives, children and the elderly at home can receive a generous pension. Therefore, the Ming army soldiers only need to fight on the battlefield and do not have to worry about other things.

But the situation was different for the Japanese army.

Let’s first talk about the 200,000 troops that Musashi Hideki abandoned in China five years ago. 200,000 people were dead, and their bodies were burned to ashes. I’m afraid they would have become fertilizer for the soil by now, but Hirohito Koichi didn’t care about the families of those who died in the battle.

Besides, some time ago, after the Japanese navy was defeated, not all of them died in the battle. There were still many survivors, but those people were stripped naked by Zhang Wuji and sent back.

When Hirohito saw this, he immediately sent all the naval officers and soldiers to work as laborers.

You know, most of the defeats in that war were simply due to the incompetence of the commanders. Why should ordinary soldiers be treated like this?

From this we can see that being a soldier in Japan is not a very good job.

All these reasons combined have gradually worn away the morale of the Japanese army.

Fortunately, at this moment, Inoue Yu's flag was still standing there. If the flag was cut down, the situation would be even worse.

At this moment, Zhao Linger shouted to Fei: "Junior sister, how about we go and cut down that general's flag?"

Before Fei nodded in agreement, Zhang Wuji and Zhao Min said in unison: "No."

Zhang Wuji glared at Zhao Linger fiercely: "Sister, at our current speed of advancement, it will take at most another quarter of an hour for us to reach the Japanese flag. But at the moment, there are still countless Japanese guarding around the flag. You two must not take risks, otherwise I will replace you as the queen."

After hearing this, Zhao Linger quickly gave up the idea of ​​vying for merit. She was not afraid that Zhang Wuji would replace her position as queen. Zhao Linger believed that as long as she was alive, no one could shake her position as queen. She just didn't want to disobey Zhang Wuji.

However, at this moment, Zhao Min threw the sword to Yu Fei beside her.

Yu Fei was stunned for a moment, and then she saw Zhao Min snatch a strong bow from the hands of a soldier not far behind her.

After an iron arrow was loaded on it, the strong bow was instantly pulled like a full moon. The arrow whizzed past and actually hit the flagpole of the Japanese general's flag directly. The iron arrow pierced directly into it, shaking the flagpole and making it creak.

Zhao Min was a Mongolian after all, and her ability in riding and shooting was far superior to others. However, just when she was feeling proud of her previous arrow, she saw three iron arrows whizzing past her not far away.

The owners of the three arrows were Zhou Zhiruo, Yang Buhui and Wei Xiangjun.

After all, they are all people with cultivation. Although their skills in riding and shooting are far inferior to Zhao Min, fortunately they are shooting at a dead target. The Japanese general's flag is right there and cannot be moved. In addition, the three of them are all people with good cultivation. Even if they are not proficient in this, they can't help but have steady hands.

However, out of the three arrows, only one hit the flagpole of the general's flag. But that's okay.

Zhao Min turned around, glanced at the three of them, and then shouted loudly: "Come again."

Immediately afterwards, several more arrows whizzed past. In just a dozen or so breaths, the flagpole of the Japanese commander's flag began to feel shaky.

All the arrows either missed or hit almost the same spot as the arrow that Zhao Min shot first on the flagpole.

Everyone could feel that if a few more hits were to happen, the Japanese general's flag would definitely be broken in half.

"Come again," Zhao Min's eyes were extremely excited.

Inoue Yu, who was still hiding behind the carriage, was extremely panicked: "Hurry, protect my flag, don't let it fall."

The Japanese weren't all fools. The guards protecting the commander's flag were already dead or wounded. Who would have the guts to go down there now? Would they use their bodies to block the arrows?

Your life is your own. Once you die, you're really dead. Who will take care of your wife, children, and elders at home?

For a moment, none of the Japanese soldiers guarding Inoue Yu dared to step forward. Although Inoue Yu was roaring hysterically, she knew very well in her heart that the situation might really develop to the worst possible situation.

However, at this moment, Sasaki drew the command knife from his waist: "Baga, didn't you hear what the Marshal said?"

"The commander's flag is the soul of our Japanese army. Don't you even want your own soul?"

Sasaki was ready to kill people to stabilize the morale of the army, but at this moment, he just heard a click. Sasaki thought something was wrong, and when he turned around, he saw that the general's flag had been shot in half.

Looking at the place two hundred steps away, Zhao Min excitedly shouted to Zhang Wuji: "Did you see it? I shot down the Japanese general's flag."

Almost at the same moment, Zhou Zhiruo also shouted excitedly: "Wuji, I, I shot down the Japanese general flag."

Poor Zhang Wuji looked left and right, and all he saw were his beloved women. For a moment, he didn't know who to side with.
