Lan Yu escaped, or to put it nicely, he withdrew.
However, neither Zhang Wuji nor Zhao Min had any intention of letting him go.
Finally, after another fierce battle, there were only less than two thousand soldiers left by Lan Yu's side.
What is certain is that Xu Da asked him to hold on for half an hour, but he certainly could not hold on for that long.
Fortunately, when Lan Yu was being chased, he happened to meet Fu Youde who was also on the run.
"General Fu, God helps me that I can meet you here."
Fu Youde was stunned for a moment: "General Lan, meeting me is not necessarily a good thing. Duan Zihao chased me and beat me. If the Marshal hadn't ordered me to hold on for another half an hour, I would have collapsed long ago."
The two of them looked at each other in bewilderment, and looking back, they saw that the remaining soldiers under their command totaled only a little over 3,000.
Lan Yuyan said: "The Marshal must not have gone far. We must not let Zhang Wuji and Zhao Min attack our large army at this time."
"You and I should hold on a little longer."
Fu Youde looked back and said: "General Lan, look at these soldiers behind us, they have already collapsed, and I'm afraid it will be difficult for them to form any effective combat force. I'm not afraid of death, but if people like you and me die in a place like this, I'm afraid it will cause a shock to the entire Wei army."
Lan Yuyan said: "The soldiers under my command also told me the same thing."
"We don't have to die in battle. You and I can leave a few guards around us. If all else fails, we can run away."
The two of them looked at each other, and Fu Youde said, "Well, I'll listen to you. Otherwise, it will be difficult to explain to the Marshal."
Fu Youde and Lan Yu stopped fleeing. As long as they were not surrounded and were only facing attacks from one direction, they could still do something even if they had no defenses.
After Lan Yu raised the sword in his hand, he first killed several of his own soldiers who were fleeing, and then shouted loudly: "Don't run away, General Fu's reinforcements have arrived, fight back."
After Lan Yu finished shouting this, Fu Youde was a little confused. "Oh my goodness, if you say that, what should I say?"
…
After killing several fleeing soldiers, the Wei army's retreat was barely stopped.
However, even if it was stopped, the Wei army was still in an irreversible disadvantage.
…
"Min'er, Zhiruo."
Zhang Wuji finally found the two women he missed most.
However, what made Zhou Zhiruo unhappy was that Zhang Wuji actually called out Zhao Min's name first.
She was filled with joy and wanted to be reunited with Zhang Wuji, but Zhang Wuji called out Zhao Min's name first. What's more, the only man in her heart actually gave Zhao Min a big hug first.
"Min'er, are you hurt?"
Zhao Min said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'm not as useless as you think."
"Who else in this world can hurt me except you?"
After hearing Zhao Min's answer, Zhang Wuji felt relieved.
"Brother Wuji..." At this moment, Wei Xiangjun and Yang Buhui also threw themselves into Zhang Wuji's arms.
Zhang Wuji also said with a distressed look on his face: "Buhui, Xiangjun, how are you two? Are you hurt?"
Yang Buhui and Wei Xiangjun shook their heads desperately: "No, we are fine."
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Zhang Wuji turned his gaze to Zhou Zhiruo.
But at this moment, tears welled up in the corners of Zhou Zhiruo's eyes.
There was a small moment when she even thought that Zhang Wuji no longer loved her. Why was she the last person this enemy cared about?
However, when she found that Zhang Wuji looked at her with the same eyes as before, her heart softened.
"Zhiruo, why are you crying? Are you hurt?"
In his life, Zhang Wuji hated seeing Zhou Zhiruo's tears the most.
Of course, Zhang Wuji was not the only one who saw this scene. Zhao Linger and Yu Fei, who arrived later, also saw it.
Zhao Linger asked Zhao Min: "Sister Min'er, what is this little slut doing? Why is she crying? Look at her aggrieved look, it really makes people feel distressed."
Zhao Min was also wondering: "Who knows what bad things she is planning."
"However, Zhang Wuji is the most susceptible to her tricks. We should learn from her in the future. Sooner or later, there will be peace in the world. The most powerful weapon for us women is not the swords in our hands, but our tears."
"This vixen Zhou Zhiruo has already mastered the use of this weapon to perfection."
…
Zhang Wuji looked at Zhou Zhiruo carefully again, and seeing that she was really not injured, he became even more confused: "Zhiruo, you, you have suffered any injustice."
After hearing this, Zhou Zhiruo burst into tears: "Wuuuuuu... Zhang Wuji, didn't you promise me that you would let me stay by your side for the rest of my life?"
"Why did you lie to me? Do you know what that bad woman Zhao Min did to me while you were away?"
"She teased me, humiliated me, and simply didn't treat me as a human being."
Zhao Min widened her eyes: "Hey, stop talking nonsense. When have I ever bullied you?"
Zhou Zhiruo pointed her finger at her cheek and said, "Zhang Wuji, look, my face is all red. This is because of Zhao Min's pinching. She also pinched my waist hard several times. She did a lot of harm to me during the time you were away."
Zhao Min was so shocked by these words that she took several steps back before she could regain her footing.
It was not until then that she truly realized that the highest level of pillow talk was not actually blowing on the pillow.
Zhang Wuji turned around and said somewhat unhappily: "Min'er, you, you are going too far."
Zhao Min said angrily: "You enemy, you can't just listen to Zhou Zhiruo's one-sided words."
Zhang Wuji said somewhat unreasonably: "Zhiruo is crying, what she said must be true."
On the surface, he was scolding Zhao Min, but in fact, Zhao Min still saw a hint of pleading in Zhang Wuji's eyes.
Zhao Min understood that Zhang Wuji was merely venting his anger on Zhou Zhiruo. However, Zhao Min felt that she had already made such a significant contribution today, so why did Zhang Wuji insist on using Zhou Zhiruo as a scapegoat? Was it because she could cry?
Zhao Linger is an older sister after all. Seeing that the atmosphere seemed a little weird, she hurriedly pulled Zhao Min and said, "Sister Min'er, the battle is not over yet. You are not allowed to argue with that little slut Zhou Zhiruo. She can only cry. How can she compare with you, the empress of the previous dynasty who commands tens of thousands of soldiers."
"Do what you need to do immediately, otherwise you will lose your value."
