Zhang Wuji pinched Yu Fei's pretty face hard and said, "Your little head is too dirty. You are thinking about things that you shouldn't think about."
Yu Fei also cried out in injustice: "It's unfair, sir, I didn't say anything. It's obviously you who thought the wrong thing. Why are you pushing the blame on me? This is unfair."
…
Some things are unfair, so what? You still have to endure it.
After teaching Yu Fei a lesson, Zhang Wuji said to Longze and Aoi, "You two have worked really hard on this trip."
"Go eat something first, take a shower, and then have a good sleep. After you wake up, tell Min'er about the deployment of the Japanese army in Dongchuan City and what you have discovered."
…
The Ming army was not short of food at the moment, so even a one-day delay would not be a problem, so Zhang Wuji asked Longze and Aoi to go and rest.
Inside the tent where they were staying, Aoi simply ate a few bites of food and then said to Longze, "Sister, His Majesty is so kind to us."
"After coming back, he didn't rush to ask about the situation in our city. There is nothing more comfortable than eating something, taking a bath, and having a good sleep."
Long Ze also smiled and said: "That's true. Your Majesty is so thoughtful and so kind to us."
"However, sister, after taking a bath, you can go to bed first. I want to take advantage of my head being still clear and summarize the things I observed in Dongchuan City immediately, so that I won't forget certain things after sleeping."
After hearing this, Aoi said, "If you don't want to sleep, then I won't sleep either. I'll stay with you."
Longze glared at Aoi fiercely: "Your Majesty is the only thing on your mind. How can you think of anything else? It won't take me too much time. One hour will be enough. We have done a great deed this time. His Majesty will definitely come back to see us at night. When the time comes, we must let His Majesty stay in our tent for the night. So, our sisters should wash themselves first, and then you go to bed. At night, you have to perform well."
After hearing this, Aoi's pretty face instantly turned red: "Sister, look at what you said. I didn't behave well that time, but I just did what His Majesty wanted."
…
The two sisters first ate something and then took a bath. Afterwards, Longze began to draw a military defense map of Dongchuan City.
It was not until an hour later that Long Ze nodded with satisfaction: "Nothing was missed."
Long Ze walked out of the tent with a smile on his face.
…
"Your Majesty, this is the military deployment map of Dongchuan City."
Zhao Min took the picture with a smile: "You are a diligent girl. I like people like you. Don't worry, when you are needed, you should do your best to do the work. When you are not needed, you should serve Zhang Wuji wholeheartedly. Every word I, Zhao Min, said counts. From now on, I will take care of you. Not to mention wealth and glory, I promise that you two can spend the rest of your lives in peace and safety by Zhang Wuji's side."
After hearing this, Long Ze knelt down quickly and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty. Nothing is more important than safety. My sister and I don't need gold, silver or other financial things. As long as we have a few sets of clothes to change and two full meals a day, my sister and I will be satisfied."
Zhao Min smiled and said, "Hurry up and get up. There is no need for people in our family to kneel down all the time. Zhang Wuji has told you this many times, but you still don't remember it."
"Come and tell me about the specific situation in this city. Only by listening to you and comparing it with this map can I come up with a solution."
…
In the next half hour, Long Ze and Zhao Min explained the situation in Dongchuan City.
The Japanese in the city were almost about to pile up the rammed earth as high as the city wall. Moreover, Inoue Yu and Sasaki also built another wall inside the first wall. In addition, dozens of strongholds similar to watchtowers were built in the city. Each stronghold could store hundreds to thousands of soldiers...
Long Ze told the whole story in one breath. The more Zhao Min listened, the more she frowned.
"It's a good thing I asked you to go and investigate, otherwise there would be more casualties."
"Go back and rest."
Long Zeyan said: "Your Majesty, I am not tired. If you have anything else to say, please let me know."
Zhao Min smiled and said, "I won't need you before we take over Dongchuan City. However, Zhang Wuji may need you tonight. You should try to get a good rest. Otherwise, you may not be able to cope at night!"
After hearing this, Long Ze's beautiful face instantly turned red: "Empress, I..."
Zhao Min smiled and said, "Forget it, we are all women. Although your background is different from Aoi's, that was in the past."
"You have been imprisoned in the prison of the Imperial City of the Ming Dynasty for five years. Although you did not suffer any hardship in those five years, and your enemy would visit you from time to time, but in the final analysis, you have been trapped in the cell for five years, wasting your best years in vain. So in the days to come, you can try to be more free and easy. As long as you don't do anything to let Zhang Wuji down, I will turn a blind eye."
After hearing this, Long Ze was still a little surprised: "Your Majesty, did you already know that His Majesty had visited us in the prison?"
Zhao Min smiled and said, "That enemy promised me that he would not hide anything from me unless I didn't ask, but as long as I asked, he would tell me the truth."
…
After Long Ze left, Zhao Min thought for a long time. Although some things were not urgent in one or two days, it was better to do them sooner rather than later.
If it is too late, the defensive offensive of the Japanese in the city will only become more and more perfect. Zhao Min never doubted whether she could capture Dongchuan. The answer to this question must be definite. All Zhao Min thought about was to suffer the least casualties while capturing Dongchuan.
After all, this is not a local battle, and it is very difficult to replenish troops. She has now become Zhang Wuji's woman, so she has long been thinking about Zhang Wuji wholeheartedly and will definitely not throw away the lives of Ming soldiers in vain.
