Zhang Wuji thought for a moment and said, "In this battle, the most crucial thing is speed. The soldiers are traveling day and night, relying entirely on the breath in their hearts."
"So for Longcheng, we must also make a concerted effort. When the army arrives at Longcheng, we must immediately attack the city. Longcheng is only a few hundred miles away from Jinyang. We only have 60,000 soldiers and horses. If we can't take Longcheng within one day, when Zhao Min comes to support, I'm afraid we will be in a dilemma."
Zhou Zhiruo said: "You have a point, but the walls of Jinyang City are high and thick, it is not so easy to attack. What's more, the tens of thousands of soldiers behind us don't even have a siege ladder. After the army arrives at the foot of the city, are we going to let them fly to the top of the city?"
Zhang Wuji glanced at Zhou Zhiruo, and then said, "Zhiruo, sometimes you can be very meticulous."
As he spoke, Zhang Wuji pulled the reins of the warhorse.
Zhou Zhiruo said: "The horses can still hold on for a while, there is no rush for us to rest."
Zhang Wuji said: "Let's stop for a while. I'm afraid we three won't have time to rest in the next period of time."
Zhou Zhiruo didn't even frown: "You, you want to go first?"
Zhang Wuji said: "Yes, what you said just now reminded me that we didn't even bring a siege ladder. Even if we reach Longcheng, the soldiers can't fly to the top of the city."
"So, only a few of us have to go ahead. After the army arrives at the city, the three of us will open the city gate."
Zhou Zhiruo said: "It's a good idea, just like when we captured the cities in Hexi. At that time, we seemed to do this often."
Zhang Wuji said: "Indeed, at that time, it was you and sister who stayed with me and helped me a lot. Without you, there would be no me."
Zhao Linger, who had not spoken for a long time, suddenly said: "What are you talking about, sir? Only with you does my life and that of my sister Zhiruo have meaning."
Zhang Wuji rolled off the horse and extended his hand to Zhao Linger: "Sister, please get off and have a rest first."
Seeing this, Zhou Zhiruo said unhappily: "Hey, Zhang Wuji, I think you are becoming more and more biased. It seems like you haven't helped me get off the horse for a long time."
After hearing this, Zhao Linger quickly retorted: "You little slut, it's already this time and you're still jealous. It's not certain whether I can keep my child. If you continue to be jealous, I will take it out on you."
After hearing this, Zhou Zhiruo quickly said: "You, you, forget it, I'll give in to you this time. You are not the only one who is worried about Xiao Yuxiao. I also treat him as my own son."
Zhao Linger said: "Biological? Even if you still regard him as your biological son, he is still my son. If you have the ability, you can give birth to one yourself."
Zhou Zhiruo was stunned for a moment, tears still welling up in her eyes.
After Zhao Linger said this, she felt a little regretful, but some words are hard to take back once they are spoken.
Only Zhang Wuji was in an extremely awkward position. He didn't know who to side with. Zhao Linger was angry, and Zhou Zhiruo was now the only person she could vent her anger on.
Although Zhang Wuji didn't say it, he was already on Zhou Zhiruo's side in his heart. After all, what Zhao Linger had said just now was indeed a bit too much.
Just when Zhang Wuji was unable to decide who to side with, a large group of soldiers had already caught up.
Zhang Wuji sighed and said, "You two, rest here for a while. I'll go and talk to Yin Yewang and the others."
Men are sometimes in a difficult position, especially when they are caught between two women.
At this moment, Zhang Wuji could not think of any other solution except to escape in disgrace.
However, as soon as Zhang Wuji left, Zhou Zhiruo could no longer control the tears in her eyes.
Big tears poured down from her eyes.
This stunning beauty cried very sadly, but Zhou Zhiruo quickly covered her mouth with her hands, not daring to make a single sound.
Because she was afraid of alarming Zhang Wuji, which would only put Zhang Wuji in a difficult position.
Seeing this, Zhao Linger could only sigh helplessly.
She walked up to Zhou Zhiruo, took out the handkerchief in her arms, and wiped his face a few times.
But during this process, Zhou Zhiruo's delicate body was still dodging backwards.
Zhao Linger said: "You little slut, you better behave yourself."
"I said the wrong thing just now. It was my fault, but I'm in a bad mood. You have to understand that I really can't find anyone to vent my anger on. Just now, there were only you, me and the young master. Do you want me to get angry at the young master?"
"Give your sister some face and stop crying. Wei Xiangjun and Yang Buhui, those two girls, will be here soon. If you cry like this, they will laugh at me."
Zhou Zhiruo sobbed and said, "You, you bully people. This time, you really went too far."
Zhao Linger quickly grabbed Zhou Zhiruo's wrist, and then used a handkerchief to wipe her beautiful face a few times.
"Good sister, I promise you that there won't be a second time, isn't that enough? Please don't cry. I can see that the young master was on your side just now, but he just couldn't say it out loud. Please give me some face and stop crying."
…
Just as Zhao Linger was wiping the tears from Zhou Zhiruo's face, two horses in the distance were galloping towards them.
The two people on the horse were Wei Xiangjun and Yang Buhui.
Seeing this, Zhao Linger said a little panickedly: "Sister Zhiruo, I've already apologized to you, why are you still crying? Are you trying to embarrass me on purpose?"
Zhou Zhiruo sobbed and said, "I, I can't help it."
Zhao Linger said, "If you can't help it, then I will help you bear it. As she spoke, Zhao Linger gently pinched Zhou Zhiruo's waist."
Zhou Zhiruo exclaimed: "Old woman, why are you still here?"
Zhao Linger didn't stop her movements. In just a moment, the two of them started to make a fuss.
Zhao Linger's method was very effective. It distracted Zhou Zhiruo and she stopped crying.
By the time Yang Buhui and Wei Xiangjun came to them, Zhou Zhiruo had already wiped the tears from her face.
After the two of them dismounted, Yang Buhui said to Zhao Linger, "Sister Queen, you and Sister Zhou have such a good relationship. Even at this time, you can still play and fight with each other. I'm really envious."
