After Zhang Wuji finished saying this, the murderous aura from Zhao Linger and the others burst out of their bodies.
Several fairy-like women instantly became like Asuras from hell.
The four of them stared at Zhu Yuanzhang with a gaze as deep as the abyss.
Zhu Yuanzhang was a great hero. Years of fighting on the battlefield had already honed his mind to be as tough as steel.
But at this moment, he felt that death was not far away from him.
It seems just a stone's throw away.
Zhang Wuji sneered and said, "Old Zhu, I have said everything I need to say."
"Whether to fight or not, you'd better weigh it carefully for yourself."
"Zhao Min has now retreated to Zhigu Village, which is only a few hundred miles away from here."
"If you and I were to fight, she would never stand by and watch. When the time came, I would defend the city, and you would definitely be the first person to suffer."
…
Zhang Wuji turned and left, followed closely by Zhao Linger and others.
The journey is smooth and unobstructed.
Under the gaze of death, Zhu Yuanzhang was at a loss.
He believed that if he had really taken action just now, he would most likely have died at the hands of Zhang Wuji's sword.
But Zhu Yuanzhang forgot that he also had hundreds of loyal guards around him, and hundreds of thousands of troops behind him.
Even if a fight really broke out, it would only be a situation where both sides would suffer losses. Zhu Yuanzhang might die under Zhang Wuji's sword, but the fate of Zhang Wuji and others would not be good either.
If a real fight breaks out, Zhang Wuji and his beautiful wives will most likely die here.
…
In Dadu, Zhang Wuji and others jumped onto the several-meter-high city wall.
Zhu Yuanzhang and his soldiers could only watch.
Lan Yu, who had recovered from his shock, said to Zhu Yuanzhang, "Your Majesty, are you just going to let Zhang Wuji go like this?"
Zhu Yuanzhang sighed and scolded Lan Yu, "They are all gone, what's the point of saying these things now?"
"If you had the ability, why didn't you kill Zhang Wuji just now?"
Lan Yu said embarrassedly: "Your Majesty, I am not afraid of death at all."
"It's not that I don't want to kill Zhang Wuji, but I really can't beat him. Besides, you are still by my side. If we really fight, your safety will be difficult to guarantee."
Tang He on the side said: "Your Majesty, General Xiaolan is right. If we were not worried about your safety, we would have left Zhang Wuji here even at the risk of our lives."
Zhu Yuanzhang glared at Tang He again: "What do you mean? Am I in the way?"
Tang He said: "Your Majesty, please don't misunderstand, we are just worried about your safety."
"People who have reached the level of cultivation of Zhang Wuji are indeed difficult to deal with."
"Most of our generals can handle battles independently, but if they fight alone, no one can be a match for Zhang Wuji."
"Now that I think about it, if I want to kill Zhang Wuji, I'm afraid I'll have to think about it carefully."
Zhu Yuanzhang glared at Zhang Wuji on the top of the city wall fiercely again and said: "Good cultivation is of course useful, but in this war, good cultivation is not omnipotent."
"Back then, Xiang Yu had the strength to move mountains and the courage to surpass the world, and his cultivation was astonishing, but in the end, he still died at the hands of Liu Bang."
"Today, let's let Zhang Wuji go for now."
"Send orders to the three armies to surround Dadu from the east, west and south, and temporarily withdraw the main camp twenty miles."
"Let me discuss countermeasures first."
…
Most of Zhu Yuanzhang's troops slowly retreated.
The Ming army officers and soldiers on the city wall watched all this and could not help but feel ecstatic.
In the hearts of these Ming army soldiers, Zhang Wuji's image has been elevated to a higher level.
With his own strength, he drove back hundreds of thousands of Zhu Yuanzhang's troops. Such heroic deeds are rare in history.
…
On the top of the city wall, Zhang Wuji called Wei Yixiao, Yin Yewang and a group of generals to his side.
He slowly said: "Brothers."
"We are all family, so I won't tell you those empty words."
"We have already taken over most of the city. No matter how we took it, the city is now in our hands."
"Things have come to this point, we have no way back."
"Although I didn't fight with Zhu Yuanzhang today, we have already fallen out."
"There will definitely be a fight to the death in the future."
"Most of you are veterans from my Ming Cult period. If we conquer this world, it will be no problem for us to be granted titles of nobility and become prime ministers, bringing honor to our families. If we lose, all of us, including me, will end up dead without a burial place."
"As human beings, we only have a few short decades to live. If we don't try our best, how can we know how big a thing we can accomplish?"
"The original Ming Cult has become the current Ming Dynasty. As for whether the future Ming Dynasty can create a prosperous era for the people of the world that far surpasses the Tang and Han Dynasties, it depends not on me, but on us."
"The city is already in our hands. Whether we can hold it or not depends on you brothers."
Wei Yixiao quickly knelt on the ground and said: "Your Majesty, before I followed you, I was just a military man."
"It is because of your appreciation that I have the opportunity to bring honor to my family."
"At this moment, I dare not guarantee anything else, but what I can guarantee is that as long as I am still alive, no enemy will be able to set foot in this city."
After Wei Yixiao's words, all the generals present expressed the same attitude.
