Zhang Wuji said with a wicked smile, "Sister Zhu'er, are you telling your brother a riddle?"
"What aspect do you mean?"
Zhu'er said shyly: "Brother Wuji, you are so bad."
"I, I will ignore you today no matter what you say."
Han Zhao on the side was speechless. She said in her heart, "My Miss Zhu'er, you ignored the young master today."
"It was a whole night last night... If I hadn't taken it all in for you..."
"I guess you won't be able to get out of bed again today."
…
Compared with the gentle land of Zhang Wuji, the situation in Longcheng at this moment is tense.
In front of the Ming army, more than a dozen cannons were lined up in a row.
At Yang Xiao's command, the rumbling sound of cannons pierced the sky.
Wang Baobao, a veteran general, was naturally familiar with this kind of weapon.
After all, Zhang Wuji is not the only one who has this thing.
Just last night, Wang Baobao had also lined up more than a dozen cannons on the top of the city wall.
When Zhang Dingbian gave the order to open fire, Wang Baobao on the city wall also gave the order to open fire.
…
The two armies clashed with each other, and iron lumps weighing more than ten pounds flew everywhere.
This kind of shell would be fine if it didn't hit the body, but if it did, it could split the person in two. At this moment, Wang Baobao had a good field of view and a clear shooting range.
As the saying goes, the higher you stand, the farther you hit.
As a result, dozens of people were killed or wounded in the Ming army.
Seeing this, the commander-in-chief Yang Xiao hurriedly said, "That's nonsense! Quick, the army retreat a hundred feet."
…
Yang Xiao and Zhang Dingbian were very angry. They had just been joking, but ended up with dozens of casualties.
The two of them looked at each other in surprise.
It’s not a big deal if there are some casualties when leading troops to fight, but it also depends on the time.
At this time, dozens of people were killed or injured, which was really not worth it.
If Zhang Wuji were here, these two generals would definitely be punished.
Looking at the slowly retreating Ming army, Wang Baobao on the top of the city laughed loudly and said, "Hahahaha, the Ming army is nothing but this."
"Soldiers, what are you waiting for?"
"Start cursing."
In an instant, the sound of insults like a tsunami reached the ears of the Ming army soldiers.
As ordinary soldiers, there are some things they can decide on their own without the commander's orders.
That is to insult the Yuan army on the city wall.
In just a moment, the soldiers of the Yuan and Ming armies uncontrollably did the same thing as yesterday.
The insults resounded through the sky.
The soldiers of the Yuan army were greeting Zhang Wuji's ancestors, while the soldiers of the Ming army were greeting Zhao Min's ancestors.
There were even many Ming army soldiers who were suggesting that Zhao Min become Zhang Wuji's concubine.
In short, all kinds of nonsense came out.
Yang Xiao said: "It's so cheap and embarrassing."
"I have an army of 200,000 here, those Tartars are too arrogant."
Zhang Dingbian on the side said: "General Yang, a lack of patience will ruin great plans."
"It's not the case now. When we fight the Yuan army, we must not ruin your majesty's plan."
Yang Xiao frowned and said, "Don't worry, General Zhang, I won't act impulsively."
"Fighting with the Yuan army now will only deplete our strength."
"If I ruin your majesty's great cause, I, Yang Xiao, will be held responsible even if I die a thousand times."
…
The Ming army soldiers retreated about a hundred feet.
However, the artillery battle between the two armies continued.
After the rumbling sound of cannons, hundreds of pits the size of plates were smashed on the walls of Longcheng.
Seeing this, Yang Xiao burst into laughter: "Good stuff, this cannon is really a good stuff."
"It's a pity that there are so few of these things."
"If we had a few hundred cannons and tens of thousands of artillery shells, we could take Dragon City easily."
Zhang Dingbian on the side quickly reminded: "General Yang, we don't have many artillery shells and gunpowder. Not long ago, when Zhao Min attacked Jinyang, our gunpowder was basically used up."
"Look, should we use it sparingly?"
"Should we wait until we actually attack Longcheng to use these dozen or so cannons, as well as the remaining gunpowder and shells?"
After thinking about it, Yang Xiao said, "General Zhang is right."
"Then let's use it sparingly."
"But for things like catapults, let's not set a limit, right?"
Zhang Dingbian said: "Of course, catapults and stones are inexhaustible. During this period of time, we can use these things to create momentum."
Under the command of Zhang Dingbian, the Ming army collected their limited number of cannons.
Instead, dozens of catapults appeared in front of the formation.
On the top of the city wall of Longcheng, Wang Baobao laughed and said, "Damn Yang Xiao, I'm afraid he wants to use this thing to create momentum."
"Unfortunately, I also have everything you have."
At this moment, Wang Baobao's idea was to use the same thing as the Ming army to create momentum."
"As long as he is not inferior to the other party in momentum, he doesn't care about other things."
…
Under the Dragon City, the battle was already in full swing.
On the other side, Zhu Yuanzhang's 400,000 troops had already assembled in Longping Prefecture.
The 400,000-strong army was divided into two groups and marched north from Longping Prefecture.
The two armies stretched for more than ten miles, and their momentum was earth-shaking.
