Chapter 1623: Cannon Fodder



Sarina gritted her teeth in anger, but in the end she could only return to her small tent.

"Damn it, damn it! How did Zhang Wuji, such a lustful man, become the emperor of the Ming Dynasty?"

"He is so lustful. Sooner or later, this kind of person will die in a woman's belly. Sooner or later, my father will not only destroy Persia, but even the Ming Dynasty of that lustful man will be in my father's pocket."

In grief and anger, Sarina kept cursing Zhang Wuji, but with Zhang Wuji's ability, her curse was ultimately just empty talk.

Zhang Wuji could die from anything, but not from something like this.

The next morning, the Ming army continued to march westward.

In a few days, we will reach the border of Persia.

"Your Majesty, Timur's cavalry has been spotted ahead."

Zhang Wuji remained calm and said: "We will continue to march at a steady pace. If they dare to do anything presumptuous, we will crush them to pieces."

Zhang Wuji's casual military order was an order that the Ming soldiers had to follow at the risk of their lives.

Seeing that the Ming army was marching at an unslow pace, Timur's cavalry general in the distance wondered, "Did he not see us, or did he not take us seriously at all?"

The deputy general said on the side: "I think Zhang Wuji doesn't take us seriously at all."

"However, they do have the capital."

"Look at their army formation. Although they are on the march, they are in a state of readiness for war. With so few of us, if we fight head-on and are not allowed to escape, you and I can survive for more than two quarters of an hour, which is considered the most."

The commander sighed helplessly: "This is still in our own country. It's really embarrassing. Since Zhang Wuji refuses to stop, we have no choice but to meet him in person."

The deputy general said: "You can go to meet them, but either you go or I will go. But don't bring any soldiers with you. If a fight breaks out, the soldiers will be killed."

The commander sighed again: "Well, you stay and I'll go."

As he spoke, the general of Timurid Khanate galloped towards the direction where Zhang Wuji was.

"Timur Khanate, Cavalry Captain Duolun requested to see the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty."

The general of Timurid Khanate stood alone in front of Zhang Wuji's army. However, tens of thousands of soldiers were still marching forward in an orderly pace. Duolun was a little surprised and thought to himself, "What does this mean? Do they want to trample me to death?"

Duolun was very embarrassed. No one paid any attention to him, and no one stopped because of his arrival. Countless Ming army soldiers passed by him. After an unknown amount of time, a middle-aged man riding a tall horse passed by him and said to him leisurely, "I am the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty. What brings you here?"

Duolun looked up at Zhang Wuji and felt that the man in front of him was handsome and looked like an emperor.

Duolun was surprised for a moment, then said, "I am here on the orders of His Majesty, to serve Her Royal Highness the Princess!"

Zhang Wuji sneered: "What does he mean? He wants to send thousands of people to Sarina to command. What does he want his good daughter to command? Is he going to send her to stab me in the back?"

Duolun was speechless after being retorted: "Your Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty has misunderstood. It's just that we will reach the territory of Persia in a few days. When the war breaks out, I am afraid that Your Majesty may not be able to expect my princess. I have led 3,000 cavalrymen here. I am sending orders for the princess and also for His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty."

"What's more, there are cities of my Khanate ahead. Having me lead the way for Your Majesty can save you a lot of trouble."

Zhang Wuji hummed: "Well, this sounds like a normal thing to say. If you have this idea, it wouldn't hurt if you came a few days earlier."

As he spoke, Zhang Wuji turned his gaze to Zhao Min, who was also riding a tall horse beside him: "Min'er, should we keep these thousands of cannon fodder?"

Zhao Min smiled and said, "Then keep them and use them to test the fighting power of the Persians."

Duolun was stunned. How could they say such shameless words so openly?

Duolun was a little angry, but at this moment, a crisp voice came into his ears.

"Duorun, why are you here?"

Duolun looked up and saw that it was Princess Sarina. Duolun hurried over to pay his respects and said, "Greetings, Her Royal Highness."

Sarina said: "General, please get up quickly. Did my father ask you to come?"

Duolun said: "It was your Majesty who asked me to come. Your Majesty calculated that the Ming army was about to enter Persia, so he asked me to bring 3,000 cavalry to protect the safety of Her Royal Highness the Princess."

Sarina said: "To protect my safety, father, are you afraid that Zhang Wuji will kill me, or that the Persians will kill me?"

Duolun was speechless. It would be embarrassing if such words were said so loudly in public and by others.

Duolun said cautiously: "Your Highness, if Zhang Wuji wants to kill you, what can I do with the three thousand soldiers under my command? Your Majesty sent me here because he is afraid that Zhang Wuji will not be able to take care of you after the war with Persia. If that time really comes, I will be able to protect you."

Sarina was also speechless: "Father is really getting old and confused. Marching on two fronts to attack Persia together is obviously the best way, but he insists on sending thousands of cannon fodder to Zhang Wuji. I really don't know what he is thinking."

"I can't believe that my little sister has the same idea as me." As she spoke, Zhao Min rode over on horseback. Sarina's heart tightened. Ever since she was almost beaten to death by Zhao Min last time, she would be extremely nervous every time she saw Zhao Min, and her calves would be extremely weak.

"Sister, well, well, otherwise, let's let these people of my father go. I don't need them."

Zhao Min smiled and said, "You are a girl who changes your expression very quickly. You may not need it, but your sister can."

"Duolun, lead your troops and clear the way in front. Don't play any tricks, otherwise, don't blame me for being rude to this little sister."

As she spoke, Zhao Min immediately turned sideways and pinched Sarina's face.

Poor Sarina didn't dare to dodge and could only allow Zhao Min to do what she wanted.
