Zhang Wuji felt helpless after hearing these words.
"Sister, Zhiruo, you should consider the occasion when you quarrel. We are on the battlefield between two armies and we are still fighting. In this situation, it is better to be careful. Better days are yet to come. If anything happens to any of you, even the slightest accident, I will be heartbroken."
Zhao Linger smiled and said, "I believe what you said, sir. Don't worry, my sister Zhiruo and I have a love that is stronger than gold and we have a very good relationship."
"None of us will take noisy things to heart."
"Sister Zhiruo, don't you agree?"
There is only one answer to this question, and that answer must be one that promotes unity.
Zhou Zhiruo gritted her teeth and said, "That's right, I believe you won't take it to heart. After all, I'm the one who has been bullied, not you."
"As for me, I'm used to swallowing my anger. You don't have to care about my feelings. I was born to be bullied."
After Zhao Linger killed several Wei army soldiers, she came to Zhou Zhiruo with a smile on her face.
"You little slut, no wonder Sister Min'er always finds trouble with you. You have a really hard mouth and you can't stand any loss."
"Today is a big battle, so I won't bother with you. You better be careful. It's okay for us sisters to bully each other. But if you are bullied by outsiders, I will be heartbroken."
…
While chatting and laughing, the masts and oars were reduced to ashes. Zhou Zhiruo and others would not feel fear as long as they were with Zhang Wuji.
Because just being with Zhang Wuji is what they want in their life.
On the other side, Zhu Wenzhen was still constantly dispatching troops to the top of the city. He had already anticipated the situation at this moment. Therefore, even if Zhang Wuji and others occupied the position on the top of the city, it did not mean that they had occupied the entire Changsha.
Countless Wei troops continued to rush towards Zhang Wuji and others.
Just then, Zhu Wenzhen walked behind a cannon.
As a general, his cultivation might be a little bit lacking, but his strength is really great.
Zhu Wenzhen turned the gun barrel and said, "Load."
Zhu Yuanzhang, who was not far away, was stunned.
If your cultivation isn’t enough, you can use cannons.
With a loud bang, a cannonball weighing more than ten pounds was launched directly at Zhang Wuji.
The cannonball first pierced the body of a Wei army soldier, and then hit Zhang Wuji's sword.
But even so, the power of the cannonball remained undiminished, and Zhang Wuji's body was directly blown far away by the cannonball.
No matter how high a person's cultivation level is, he is no match for a cannon.
Seeing that Zhu Wenzhen's trick was effective, the Wei army soldiers on the city wall followed suit.
Below the city, the sound of the cannon just now did not escape Zhao Min's ears.
Although her vision was obstructed and she wasn't sure what had happened, a hint of unease filled her heart.
"Send the order to retreat, quickly."
Accompanied by the sound of gongs, the Ming army soldiers began to retreat.
Zhou Zhiruo hurried to Zhang Wuji and asked, "My dear, are you okay?"
Zhang Wuji said: "Zhiruo, don't worry, I'm fine."
Zhao Linger hurriedly shouted to the two of them: "Retreat quickly, the Wei army is about to fire again."
At such a close distance, the speed of the shells is so fast that it is invisible to the naked eye.
If the cannonball that was fired at Zhang Wuji just now had not first pierced through a Wei soldier standing in front of him and then happened to hit Zhang Wuji's sword, Zhao Linger and others would probably have become widows by now.
It's too dangerous. They can choose to bear this danger themselves, but they absolutely don't want Zhang Wuji to bear this danger as well.
At the critical moment, the women and Zhang Wuji jumped down from the top of the Changsha city wall.
If it had been a little later, a dozen or so shells would have left them here forever.
"Zhang Wuji retreated, the Ming army retreated..."
On the top of Changsha City, countless Wei army soldiers cheered.
This even includes Zhu Yuanzhang.
"Wen Zheng, well done, I knew you were good."
Zhu Wen Zheng smiled bitterly and said, "Uncle, I was just improvising. But it was a close call."
"If Zhang Wuji continues to be so arrogant on the city wall, it won't be long before a major incident occurs."
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said: "A huge accident could indeed happen, but it did not happen in the end. No matter what, your uncle has seen your bravery today."
…
Under the city, after hearing the sound of the retreat, countless Ming troops retreated like a tide.
"Are you okay?"
Zhao Min's face seemed to have never been so flustered. She was worried about Zhang Wuji's comfort more than her own comfort.
Zhang Wuji laughed and said, "It was almost there, but it's okay, men like you are not that fragile."
Zhao Min said angrily: "Still laughing? When will you change your habit of smiling so frivolously?"
Zhou Zhiruo said angrily: "Hmph, why are you so proud and shouting?"
"Zhang Wuji was up there just now and an accident almost happened. As a woman, is this how you treat your man?"
Zhou Zhiruo couldn't help herself and started arguing with Zhao Min again.
After hearing this, Zhao Min just glared at Zhou Zhiruo fiercely.
"Fox spirit, stop talking nonsense here. If I didn't have Zhang Wuji in my mind, why would I order the troops to retreat?"
"I am not only Zhang Wuji's woman, I am also the commander-in-chief of this army. Therefore, when you are in front of the soldiers, you'd better be respectful to me."
"Otherwise, be careful or I'll use your head as a sacrifice."
After hearing this, Zhou Zhiruo froze in place.
She knew that what Zhao Min had just said must have been just an angry remark.
However, this kind of angry words are already very scary.
Although they often quarreled with each other, no one had ever joked about sacrificing the other's head.
Zhao Linger glared at Zhao Min fiercely: "Sister Min'er, why do you say such scary words? We are sisters. Don't do this again next time."
Zhao Min didn't reply, which was barely an admission of her mistake.
Zhou Zhiruo also remained silent. After all, what she had just said was really scary and she had not yet recovered.
…
Half an hour later, inside the central army tent.
Zhao Min smiled and said, "My fellow generals, we have failed today. I originally wanted to surprise the Wei army on the city wall, so that our masters could rush forward and take Changsha in one fell swoop."
"Unfortunately, man proposes, God disposes. Zhu Wen was on the top of the city wall, and he was stunned by a few shots."
"We lost thousands of soldiers today and have not achieved any success. The responsibility is all mine. But now is not the time to denounce me. If there is anything else, let's wait until we take over Changsha City."
