Zhang Wuji continued to talk non-stop for a quarter of an hour.
In this quarter of an hour, he devalued the defenders in Xuzhou City to nothing.
He even said bluntly: "We have an army of more than 20,000 people in the Ming Cult. If we can't even defeat 4,000 Mongolian Tartars, how can we be qualified to be the descendants of Yan and Huang, and how can we be qualified to face our ancestors?"
"If you can't win this battle with such a huge disparity in strength, how can you and I, the leader, have the dignity to live in this world? It would be better for you to kill each other outside the city of Xuzhou."
"If we don't win this battle, it will only prove that the Mongolian Tartars are of noble blood, and we Han people are only made to be slaves. Your wives and daughters will once again be ridden under the feet of those Tartars."
…
Filled with righteous indignation and passionate.
The Ming Cult army was so angry that they were shaking all over after hearing Zhang Wuji's words.
However, they were not angry with Zhang Wuji, but with the group of Mongolian Tartars.
Just like Zhang Wuji said.
If they lose this battle, what face will they have left in front of their ancestors? If they can't even protect their wives and daughters, it would be better for them to just kill themselves under the city of Xuzhou.
…
A moment later, the Ming Cult army set out for the city of Xuzhou.
Yang Xiao, who was standing by, said to Zhang Wuji, "Master, I really want to kowtow to you for three days."
"Look at the morale of the soldiers behind you. Even if I, Yang Xiao, were to practice for three lifetimes, I would not be able to say what you just said."
Zhang Wuji quickly waved his hands and said, "Uncle Yang, there's nothing I can do about it."
“You know that Xuzhou City has 40,000 defenders.
"We are now on the attacking side. Many of those newly recruited soldiers may think that even if they cannot capture Xuzhou, they can retreat to Guangmingding and continue to eat for free."
"But what they don't know is that this battle must be won. Any sign of defeat, even a failure in morale, will lead to irreversible consequences."
"I don't want to lie to them. I just want them to survive this battle, so I have to do this."
In his life, Yang Xiao has never admired anyone except Zhang Wuji.
Zhang Wuji had only been the leader for a short time, but he had refreshed Yang Xiao's cognition time and time again.
Zhang Wuji continued to say to Yang Xiao: "Uncle Yang, when we arrive at the city of Xuzhou, we will start the battle immediately. You lead our Ming Cult, those thousands of old men, to go first."
"You must fight with great momentum. The harder you fight, the more fiercely the more than 10,000 new soldiers behind you will follow you. There is no such thing as a war without casualties. It's like this today, and it will be even more so in the future."
"Do you understand?".
Yang Xiao nodded quickly and said, "Don't worry, Master. I, Yang Xiao, have long since put life and death aside."
…
Under the city of Xuzhou, Zhang Wuji's army was full of murderous intent.
As it was already dark, the Yuan soldiers on the city wall could not see exactly how many troops there were.
However, the walls of Xuzhou City were already brightly lit. Although it was night, it was as bright as day.
Xuzhou defender Muliangha had already been waiting here.
At this moment, he was looking at the dark crowd of people below the city, and he felt a little worried.
This was the first time in all these years that he encountered an attack on the city at night.
"This general who leads the troops does not play by the normal rules at all."
Zhang Wuji looked around at the foot of the city, and found that Zhou Zhiruo and Zhu'er were also looking at him affectionately.
Zhang Wuji slowly said: "Zhu'er, Zhiruo, war is not for women. When we attack the city, you two just stay here."
Zhou Zhiruo shook her head gently: "Did you just get to know me today? On the first night I stayed at Guangmingding, you promised me that I would stay by your side forever."
"Today, it's too late for you to go back on your word."
"What's more, check your conscience. My cultivation is not weak now. That time in Dadu, I accompanied you and fought my way out of the crowd."
Zhu'er also hurriedly said: "Brother Wuji, don't worry. Although my cultivation is not good, I will not be at a disadvantage when facing seven or eight Yuan soldiers. As long as you are here, I will not be willing to die. I will protect myself well."
"As long as you are here, I will not bear to die", what a touching love words. It is true that Zhang Wuji wants to rule the world, but he also does not want to let the two women around him suffer any harm.
Even if it's just for Zhou Zhiruo and Zhu'er, he must take Xuzhou City tonight.
…
Zhang Wuji didn't waste any words. He waved to Yang Xiao who was not far away.
After Yang Xiao nodded, he drew the sword in his hand.
After shouting the word "kill", Yang Xiao led thousands of elders from the Ming Cult and attacked first.
Fifty ladders, with an overwhelming momentum, were placed at the foot of Xuzhou City.
Muliangha on the city wall hurriedly ordered his men to shoot arrows, but it happened just as Zhang Wuji had predicted.
It was already night time, and the accuracy of these arrows had been greatly reduced.
But it’s different for Zhang Wuji.
The Yuan soldiers on the city wall were clearly illuminated by countless torches.
Among the Mingjiao soldiers under the city, there were already hundreds of them, holding bows and waiting for the Yuan soldiers to show up.
For a moment, countless flying arrows from above and outside the city hit the other side like raindrops.
Xuzhou defender Muliangha was extremely surprised when he saw this.
As a general who had experienced many battles, he knew at a glance that the army attacking the city was definitely an elite force.
