Zhao Min quickly waved her hand and said, "Master, there's no need to blame yourself."
"Everyone in the world has the habit of being confused by the things they are involved in."
"Master has been commanding in front of this formation every day recently, so it's understandable that he didn't notice this tiny change for a while."
"What I don't understand now is why Chang Yuchun did this."
"He is one of Zhu Yuanzhang's most proud generals. Compared with Xu Da, he is a bit reckless, but he is better at attacking cities and capturing strongholds."
As she spoke, Zhao Min pointed towards Chang Yuchun's camp with her slender jade finger.
"Master, look, does the position of the bonfires in Chang Yuchun's camp resemble a certain formation you once taught me?"
After taking a few careful looks, Han Yulou suddenly said, "Yunchui Formation."
Zhao Min smiled and said, "Yes, it's the Yunchui Formation."
"This formation is an excellent defensive formation."
"For an offensive general like Chang Yuchun, the fact that he can set up this kind of formation probably means that he has already planned not to launch an attack on Dadu in the short term."
Although Han Yulou drank a few more glasses today, he was not confused.
After a moment, he seemed to understand some of the reasons.
He just said tentatively: "Your Majesty, is there going to be a problem with General Duan?"
Zhao Min sighed and said, "That's about it."
"According to Zhu Yuanzhang's marching speed, he might have already reached Dahukou at this moment."
"Who knows, the fighting over there might be in full swing right now."
Han Yulou said: "Chang Yuchun in front of us is now switching from offense to defense, which is enough to show that Xu Da, who is supporting him behind him, has already made the next move."
"If Xu Da leads his army to support Dahukou and attacks Zhu Yuanzhang from both sides, wouldn't General Duan be in danger?"
Although Zhao Min felt a little helpless, she nodded and said, "That's right. General Duan is in danger."
"Zhu Yuanzhang led an army of 300,000, plus Xu Da's 200,000 troops."
"With 500,000 troops attacking General Duan's 150,000 troops, General Duan's defeat is probably a foregone conclusion."
Han Yulou said with a little panic: "Your Majesty, I will send someone to deliver a letter to General Duan now."
Zhao Min quickly waved her hands and said, "It's too late."
"Now Dadu is surrounded on three sides, and the only way out is from the north. If we want to send a message to General Duan, we will probably have to travel more than a hundred miles."
"By the time the messenger arrives, the flowers will probably be cold."
Han Yulou knelt on the ground with great self-blame: "Your Majesty, today's omission is entirely my fault. I beg for Your Majesty's punishment."
Zhao Min smiled and helped Han Yulou up: "Master, today's negligence is not your responsibility. If I hadn't come here suddenly, I might not have discovered the trick."
"Besides, even if you discovered the trick a few hours in advance, what would it matter?"
"Even if General Duan got the news in advance, he could not withstand the pincer attack of 500,000 troops."
"Now, all we can do is to make up for the loss."
"I'm afraid Xu Da's army won't come back within ten days or half a month."
"It's not realistic for us to send more troops to support General Duan."
"Once the army moves, it will be impossible to hide it from the enemy's spies deployed around Dadu."
"What we can do now is to wipe out Chang Yuchun's 200,000 troops within the next ten days."
After Zhao Min said this, a sinister smile appeared on her face.
Han Yulou's eyes lit up when he saw this.
As for Duan Zihao, the situation is almost a foregone conclusion, and no matter how much you worry about it, it will be of no use.
It is better to deal with the things at hand first.
Han Yulou asked, "Your Majesty, what do you want to do?"
Zhao Min smiled and said, "First, gather all the artillery in the city."
"Xu Da's 200,000-strong army has only gone a short distance. It is not the right time yet. Let's wait for a day. The day after tomorrow, we will push the artillery out of the city as quickly as possible."
"When the time comes, thousands of cannons will fire at the same time."
"Although Chang Yuchun's Yunchui Formation is good at defense, it is, after all, a formation passed down from thousands of years ago."
"At that time, there were no artillery, and it might take some effort to break through this formation. But today, it is different."
"No matter what formation he uses, let's blow him to pieces first."
"After the cannon fire, you and I, master and disciple, led our troops together and rushed towards Chang Yuchun's camp. I don't believe that the two of us together can't kill him."
After Zhao Min said this, a smile appeared on Han Yulou's face.
The new generation pushes the old generation forward. Although Zhao Min's cultivation is still far inferior to Han Yulou's at this moment, she has surpassed him in other things.
After laughing a few times, Han Yulou asked Zhao Min again: "Your Majesty, there are only a few hundred thousand soldiers left in the capital city now."
"Even if we wipe out Chang Yuchun, when Zhu Yuanzhang leads his troops again, my fear is that our situation will be even more troublesome than it is now. What should we do then?"
Zhao Min smiled and said, "Today, I formed a good relationship with a little girl in the imperial city, and at the same time, I also laid a foreshadowing."
"That little girl is very timid. You can tell at a glance that she is extremely afraid of death."
"I told her that most of the time, we might not be able to hold on any longer. Of course, that was the truth."
