Zhao Min glanced at Wang Baobao who was standing beside her and said, "General, pass the order down. Our army must enter Changsha City before noon today. Otherwise, something unexpected will happen."
"If the soldiers fail to make any progress within two hours, I will lead the entire army in a final charge."
"I still say the same thing, either we take Changsha City and capture Zhu Yuanzhang alive, or we die together."
Wang Baobao had already seen the determination in Zhao Min's eyes, and he hurried down to pass on the order. But at this moment, Wang Baobao suddenly thought in his heart that if Zhao Min had gritted her teeth and fought to the death like she did now when she was fighting with Zhang Wuji, perhaps the world would not be like this now.
At this point, everyone has some messy thoughts in their minds.
However, it is just a simple thought. The Yuan Dynasty is a thing of the past. Once upon a time, the last hope of the Yuan Dynasty was Zhao Min. Unfortunately, Zhao Min is now Zhang Wuji's woman. For a woman, the era of Zhao Min has ended. Even if it has not ended, her era must be under the halo of Zhang Wuji.
…
On the top of Changsha City, Zhu Yuanzhang could almost communicate with Zhang Wuji and Yang Xiang at this moment. The two of them were not far apart, probably only a few dozen feet away.
Zhang Wuji wanted to charge forward, but the Wei army's fearlessness and bravery made it almost impossible for him to move forward.
As for Zhu Yuanzhang, he discovered Zhang Wuji's figure last night. During this period, he ordered his soldiers to shoot arrows several times, but they just couldn't hurt this man.
Zhu Yuanzhang felt a little resentful.
A small cult leader, as a poet once said, they are just a group of swallows in the hall.
The people in the martial arts world, the so-called masters of cultivation, are only fit to be the henchmen of the ruler.
But Zhang Wuji and his group have far surpassed the scope of hawks and dogs.
Since they participated in the competition for the world, but forced themselves into this state, this was something Zhu Yuanzhang could never tolerate.
"Kill, kill them immediately. Today, I am with you, and you are not allowed to retreat even a single step."
Hundreds more Wei soldiers pressed towards Zhang Wuji.
Zhang Wuji naturally accepted everyone who came. From last night till now, he could no longer remember how many people he had killed. He only knew that there were so many corpses under his feet that there was almost no place to stand.
Zhou Zhiruo's long blue and white floral dress had already turned blood red, and her embroidered shoes were soaked in blood.
"Damn it, what's wrong with Zhao Min? We have been fighting on the city wall for a whole night, but the soldiers under her command are still so useless. If we don't occupy the entire city wall as soon as possible, we will be driven down sooner or later. If we want to launch an attack of this scale again, it will be almost impossible."
Zhang Wuji said: "Don't panic, Zhiruo. Leave the command of the battle to Min'er. I never doubt her ability, and I hope you can trust her too."
Zhou Zhiruo glared at Zhang Wuji fiercely: "Hmph, if you ask me, it's you, my enemy, who has been bewitched by him. It's already so late. We fought on the city wall all night and now it's dawn. So many people have died. Even if I just scolded her a few times to vent my anger, you shouldn't stop me."
Zhao Linger on the side said: "Indeed, even if we scolded Sister Min'er a few words, she is not wronged. We have been fighting for so long. If I were her, I would have led the entire army to charge. If we win, we win. If we lose, we will retreat to the north and wait for three to five years before starting over again."
…
More than an hour later, the sun appeared above Zhao Min's head.
"It's really not easy. I alone captured Jinyang, which was guarded by Yang Xiao's 100,000 troops. But now, with so many masters and soldiers fighting one after another, we still can't capture a small city wall."
"I really don't know whether Zhang Wuji and the others were incompetent, or I was just too powerful back then."
At this moment, Wang Baobao suddenly came running to report: "Your Highness, tens of thousands of Wei troops have gathered on the mountains on both sides of Changsha City. It seems that they will launch an attack on us in half an hour at most."
Zhao Min frowned: "Damn it, what I fear is what will come true."
Wang Baobao said: "Your Highness, if we fight in the open, no one can be our opponent. We just need to call back a few masters from the city walls and then divide our forces to attack them."
After thinking about it, Zhao Min shook her head and said, "If that's the case, all our efforts from last night until now will be wasted."
"Since the Wei army on both sides of Changsha City will launch an attack in half an hour, we must push all the soldiers into Changsha City within half an hour."
"Beat the drums, and charge the entire army."
Wang Baobao said: "Your Highness, if we do this, it will be a one-time deal. If we win, that would be great. But if we fail to take Changsha within half an hour, we will be badly defeated. By then, there will definitely be a scene of corpses everywhere."
"Corpses everywhere?" Zhao Min smiled and said, "General, actually in the past two years, I have reflected on my life."
"I am the Empress of the Yuan Dynasty. At my peak, I commanded 700,000 soldiers and horses. But in the end, I ended up like this. I concluded that it was not because of my ability to lead troops in battle, nor because of my cultivation, but because I lacked the courage to fight to the death."
"Back then, we led an army of 500,000 to fight Zhang Wuji, but only tens of thousands were killed or wounded. I then lost the courage to fight to the death. This was the first great opportunity I had wasted in my life. If I had gritted my teeth and fought hard, I would be the only ruler of the world now."
"There was a second time, and the second time was before I surrendered to Zhang Wuji. At that time, I still had the majority of soldiers and horses. If I was willing to risk your lives and fight, I might not be the one who failed. Unfortunately, I gave up. What's even more ridiculous is that I actually surrendered."
"Although these things have passed, I still feel uneasy. I don't hate anyone, I just hate myself for not gritting my teeth and fighting, and why I had so many concerns."
"As for now."
After saying this, Zhao Min lowered her voice a few degrees: "General, if we lose this battle, those who die will be Zhang Wuji's men. I don't care, so why should you care?"
"Even if we are defeated, the most we can do is retreat to the north. I will bear all the responsibility for the defeat. Zhang Wuji is reluctant to punish me. At most, we can wait for three to five years and then march south."
"The next half hour is our last chance."
"I can't hesitate any longer."
