In fact, there was no need for Zhao Min to say this. The Yuan army soldiers present did not lack courage, but they had no choice but to do so. Even if they wanted to retreat, it would be extremely difficult for them to do so.
The tunnel behind them was more than a mile long and very narrow. If they wanted to withdraw the people in the city, they had to at least wait for the people at the tunnel entrance outside the city to withdraw first. Unfortunately, the space in their tunnel was dark and narrow, and the information could only be transmitted by the people in the front speaking one by one.
Therefore, a lot of time is wasted.
In the end, the Yuan army in the city had been compressed beyond recognition, while more than a mile away, at another entrance to the tunnel, a large number of Yuan troops were still desperately trying to squeeze in.
…
Anyway, Zhao Min finally gave the order to retreat.
Logically speaking, today's casualties are not very large, at most only a few hundred lives. Compared with the casualties suffered by Wang Baobao during the three-day siege, it is simply not worth mentioning.
However, this incident was a huge blow to Zhao Min.
Such accidents cannot happen in such extraordinary times.
Wang Baobao attacked the city for three days, but that was actually just a cover to attract attention. The three days were actually for this moment.
With the success on the verge of failure, a feeling of powerlessness and despair instantly filled Zhao Min's entire heart.
She knew very well that it would be difficult for her to leave Daxing City today. More importantly, she didn't want to get out alive.
Because she was a little tired, she suddenly felt that there was no point in living, there was nothing happy, it would be better to die.
Zhang Wuji stabbed Zhao Min in the heart again.
At this moment, Zhao Min smiled. Logically, she should have raised her sword to block, but Zhao Min did not dodge or evade. She also stabbed Zhang Wuji's vital point with a sword.
This tactic of exchanging life for life was very effective. Zhao Min didn't want to live, but Zhang Wuji didn't want to die at all because he had so many beautiful wives.
How could Zhang Wuji be willing to not let each of them leave behind three or two children?
Therefore, Zhang Wuji could only dodge for a moment.
But at this moment, the sword in his hand was indeed off target, a miss of a thousand miles away. He originally wanted to kill Zhao Min with this sword, but it ended up scratching her shoulder.
Zhao Min laughed and said, "Zhang Wuji, you coward, you are so afraid of death. It seems that today, I still have a chance to exchange my life with yours."
"You destroyed my Yuan Dynasty and everything I have. Why did I meet you in this life? Damn it. Let's go to hell together. In hell, we will fight again."
…
Zhao Min went crazy, perhaps because he had been suppressing his emotions for too long, or perhaps because she had been tired for too long.
…
As early as a few months ago, when Dadu had just fallen into the hands of Zhang Wuji, Zhao Min encountered a maple forest on her way to Zhigu Village alone. It was autumn then, and the leaves on the maple trees were half on the ground and half on the trees. At a glance, they were all red and very beautiful. In fact, there was a moment when Zhao Min wanted to live in seclusion there. She didn't want to care about anything and didn't want anything, but the burden on her shoulders made her leave there two days later.
After all, the lives and property of more than 200,000 soldiers are in her hands. Zhao Min can be selfish, but she can't be too selfish.
But things are different now. It's a real desperate situation. Even if Zhao Min was in her prime before she was injured, she might not be able to escape, let alone now.
Zhao Min waved the sword in her hand frantically towards Zhang Wuji. At this moment, Zhao Min had given up all defense.
She just wanted to exchange her life for Zhang Wuji's, "Since I, Zhao Min, am in a desperate situation, you, Zhang Wuji, can never succeed."
But as I said, the idea is good, but the reality is another matter.
After all, for people who have reached their level of cultivation, exchanging life for life is impossible, unless both people are in their prime.
Zhao Min suffered internal injuries, and her internal organs were probably almost shattered. It was too late for her to exchange her life for Zhang Wuji's.
…
Zhao Min stabbed Zhang Wuji's vital point with another sword. Zhang Wuji dodged it easily and then punched Zhao Min in the chest.
The force of this punch was so great that Zhang Wuji naturally would not hold back at this moment.
After this punch, Zhao Min felt as if her body was churning, and then a large amount of blood spurted out of her mouth.
Zhao Min's body flew backwards more than ten feet and then fell heavily to the ground.
However, at this moment, those Yuan army soldiers in the city who had not been killed yet hurriedly stood in front of her and said: "Your Majesty, please go quickly. It is the honor of our lives to follow you. Today, even if we die, we will protect you and get out."
Another Yuan army soldier also hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, please leave quickly. As long as you are alive, you can start over. We soldiers will definitely not be able to leave, but you can leave..."
The sounds that came one after another echoed in Zhao Min's ears.
But at this moment, Zhao Min had already become disheartened, so how could she possibly have the intention to escape?
However, it was at this moment that Han Yulou risked his life and finally got rid of the entanglement of Zhao Linger and the other two.
Fighting one against three, he lived up to his title of the second best in the world.
Han Yulou flew to Zhao Min's side and said, "Your Majesty, I will take you away."
Zhao Min smiled bitterly and shook her head: "Master, I'm sorry, Min'er finally disappointed you."
"I don't want to leave anymore, and I can't leave. Master has a high level of cultivation, so you'd better go by yourself."
"We can escape," said the surviving Yuan army officers and soldiers, "We risked our lives to hold these people back for Your Majesty. With Your Majesty's level of cultivation, how could we not be able to escape?"
"Brothers, we die for His Majesty today, and it is a worthy death."
"Don't worry about this life. Come on, let's buy some time for His Majesty. As long as His Majesty can get out alive, we will have done our duty to our ancestors."
…
The shouts and cries of killing became louder and louder.
The Yuan army soldiers who were still alive seemed to have shown the bravest side of their lives.
They went forward one after another, and as long as Zhao Min could get out alive, they didn't care about anything else.
Looking at Han Yulou at this moment, he no longer cared about etiquette.
He put his hand on Zhao Min's waist and suddenly stood up.
Zhao Min didn't want to leave, but she had no choice. She didn't want Han Yulou to die with her even more.
