Zhu Yuanzhang in the room frowned: "A general decision?"
"How to decide?"
"The decision-making power lies in the hands of Zhang Wuji. How can I decide?"
Liu Bowen said: "That's right, the decision-making power on the general situation of the world is indeed in Zhang Wuji's hands."
"But the decision we can make now is to fight, or..."
Liu Bowen still couldn't utter the last word.
Zhu Yuanzhang in the room sighed.
"Sir, has it really come to this?"
Liu Bowen said: "Life and death in one thought."
"Your Majesty, it's time to make a decision."
"If Your Majesty wants to fight, there is absolutely no possibility of defeating Zhang Wuji in the current environment."
"But if Your Majesty wants to make a comeback, the soldiers in the city will naturally be willing to follow Your Majesty. At the very least, they will fight to the death to get you out of the city."
"When the time comes, the world will be big, and we can start over again. It's not like we haven't failed before."
…
It’s not like I haven’t lost before. What a great sentence. It’s not like I haven’t lost before.
Zhu Yuanzhang in the room fell into deep thought.
It's not like he has never been defeated before. He said this to his soldiers yesterday when he was boosting morale.
However, today, Liu Bowen applied this sentence to himself again.
Zhu Yuanzhang sighed and said, "Sir, you and I are both wise men."
"Those morale-boosting words are just morale-boosting words."
"If I want to leave, maybe I can, but what good will it do if I leave? Will I really be like a lost dog?"
"Things are different now. Even if there is a three-way confrontation in the world, there is still someone who can help me restrain Zhang Wuji for two or three years. I really don't care about what happened today."
"But at this moment, who can restrain Zhang Wuji?"
"If he kills me, I will never have a chance to turn things around."
Liu Bowen was also a little speechless, but now, even if it was the general trend, something had to be done.
The Wei Dynasty was once a prosperous country. If we go back a hundred years, it would have become the Song Dynasty. Could it be that it really disappeared like this?
After so many years of hard work and the loss of so many lives, this empire was finally built. Could it be that it is going to end like this?
After thinking about it, Liu Bowen said: "So what? Either I will be like Chen Youliang who committed suicide by burning himself after his defeat, or I will be like Zhao Min who is inferior to me."
Liu Bowen's words are no longer a metaphor.
He used two contemporary figures to give Zhu Yuanzhang some advice.
"If you refuse to break through, it will really be a matter of life or death."
There are two outcomes, choose one.
In the room, just when Zhu Yuanzhang was lost in thought, a beauty grabbed him and saved him.
"Your Majesty, I am a little scared."
"Can you please not leave here?"
Looking at the beauty in front of him, Zhu Yuanzhang's heart suddenly drifted back to the scene in Changsha City a few days ago.
At that time, there was also a beautiful woman holding me back and not letting me leave.
However, Zhu Yuanzhang at that time said to her, don't worry, the evil cult leader Zhang Wuji is no match for me, I will come back to find you later.
Some of the scenes seemed to have happened just a moment ago.
The current scene is similar to the previous scene.
How can one not feel pity for the beauty in front of him who is in her prime?
Zhu Yuanzhang sighed helplessly, then stood up and dressed, no longer looking at the beauty.
He felt a little sorry and didn't know what to say to the beauty.
He no longer dared to say words like promises.
He did not keep his word when it came to the same beauty in Changsha City before, but the situation was critical now, especially since Changsha City was several times larger in size.
It's really the point where once you walk out of this door, you're not sure if you can come back.
At this time, how could Zhu Yuanzhang dare to make any promises to this beauty?
…
Zhu Yuanzhang finally left the room.
To be honest, if possible, he would really like to die of exhaustion in that small room, but as Liu Bowen said before, something had to be done. If Zhang Wuji attacked Xinwu by force, it would be better for him to die on the battlefield than to be blocked in the room by the cult leader.
He is an emperor after all. It would be too embarrassing if he did that.
…
It was unknown how long it took, until Zhu Yuanzhang drank two bowls of mutton soup and ate four baked buns before he finally arrived at the top of the city wall.
Just standing here, I can hear the dirty words coming from the city.
Zhang Wuji had been waiting for a long time, but he was not that bored.
After shouting and cursing a few times, he let his own soldiers sate their anger.
As time goes by, when Zhang Wuji first took over Dadu, he was still surrounded by Zhu Yuanzhang.
Zhu Yuanzhang slowly walked to the edge of the city wall and looked around. In fact, the number of Ming troops was not that large, no more than 40,000.
For Zhu Yuanzhang, who was used to seeing armies of hundreds of thousands, 40,000 people was a small scene, but the key point was that he didn't even have 30,000 people under his command.
Zhu Yuanzhang knew that Zhang Wuji had just captured Changsha not long ago, and in the past few days, he must have received some troops to support him.
The situation on Xinwu's side will only get worse.
Zhu Yuanzhang just stood on the top of the city wall, but he didn't know what to say. Could it be that he really cursed Zhang Wuji?
After seeing Zhu Yuanzhang's figure, Zhang Wuji slowly raised his hand, and the voices of the soldiers behind him stopped abruptly.
"Zhu Yuanzhang, let's go out of the city and talk. After all, you and I were on the same front before, so there is nothing we can't talk about."
As soon as Zhang Wuji finished speaking, Zhao Min gave him a fierce look and said, "You enemy, when you two were on the same front, were you always against me?"
Zhang Wuji felt a little embarrassed, but after careful consideration, he believed it was true.
He whispered to Zhao Min, "Min'er, it's all in the past. I was just saying it casually."
"Don't think about unhappy things."
After comforting Zhao Min, Zhang Wuji continued to shout to Zhu Yuanzhang on the top of the city wall: "Come out, come out and talk, there is nothing that cannot be discussed."
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled bitterly: "You are a cult leader. God must be blind to have allowed you to force me to this point."
"Forget about talking outside the city. If you have the guts, come in. Come into the city and let's have a good chat."
Obviously, Zhang Wuji did not dare to enter the city. The current situation was so good, how could he, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, take the risk?
When their eyes met, Zhang Wuji was happy, because after all, he was the one who would unify the world, but Zhu Yuanzhang was angry. In his eyes, Zhang Wuji, the leader of a cult, was not worthy of such a great country.
At this moment, Zhou Zhiruo on the side whispered to Zhang Wuji: "My dear, didn't Liu Bowen come out to surrender before? Do you want to tell this matter and kill the morale of the Wei army in the city?"
