It was too late. You know, Zhou Zhiruo had always treated Zhao Linger's child as her own son.
But she could never have imagined that Zhao Linger, her biological mother, could be so resolute at such a moment.
At this moment, Zhou Zhiruo's heart was also broken.
Xiao Yuxiao is a child less than three years old. Although he is the prince, he has not had the chance to enjoy anything.
And at this critical moment, a white light flashed before her and Zhao Linger's eyes.
Zhao Min subconsciously threw the sword into the air.
There was a crisp sound, and Zhao Linger's thunder-like arrow fell to the ground.
At this moment, Zhao Min was a little at a loss, because her actions just now were completely subconscious, as if she had not considered it with her brain.
However, Zhao Linger and Zhou Zhiruo were very happy.
However, there was no expression of joy on their faces.
Zhao Linger breathed a long sigh of relief, and then said loudly to Zhao Min: "Son, I don't want it anymore. If you have the ability, make it into buns. After the buns are steamed, don't forget to send me a few."
"Sister, let's go."
Zhao Linger rode back on horseback. Zhou Zhiruo looked at Zhao Min coldly, and then she could only follow Zhao Linger back to her own camp.
…
The last words Zhao Linger said to Zhao Min were spoken in a loud voice.
It was so loud that even his own soldiers could hear it clearly.
Of course, she did it on purpose. She just didn't want her soldiers to think that she, or Zhang Wuji, had reached any agreement with Zhao Min because of her son.
When Zhao Linger returned to her own camp, tens of thousands of Ming army soldiers shouted in unison: "Empress, you are mighty, mighty, mighty..."
Zhao Linger's heart was still bleeding when she heard this mighty voice. No tears came out of her eyes, but she was just holding them back.
It was not until this moment that Zhou Zhiruo whispered to Zhao Linger: "Sister, that arrow you shot just now was too much."
"You almost killed our son."
On the other hand, Zhao Linger glared at her coldly: "Shut up, I'm in a bad mood now. If you dare to say nonsense again, I will tear your mouth apart."
Zhou Zhiruo was shocked. Although bickering and quarreling between the two of them had become commonplace, she knew better than anyone else that this time, her elder sister was really angry.
…
Let’s look at Zhao Min again.
At this moment, she could only smile bitterly. She still didn't understand why she had uncontrollably chosen to save the child.
After taking a deep breath, he and the soldiers beside him returned to their own army.
After Zhao Min sorted out her thoughts, she shouted loudly to the soldiers in front of her: "Soldiers, this battle will be the most crucial battle for our Yuan Dynasty."
"If we win, we will continue to sweep across the world. For us, we cannot lose this battle, and there is no possibility of losing. Hold the scimitars in your hands tightly and let Zhang Wuji see that we Mongols are the masters of the world. Kill him."
As the word "kill" came out, Zhao Min's army of 10,000 infantrymen marched in unison towards Zhang Wuji's camp.
After issuing the first military order, Zhao Min sat firmly under her dragon banner.
The shouts and cries of killing instantly pierced the sky.
At this moment, Zhao Linger and Zhou Zhiruo also returned to Zhang Wuji.
Zhao Linger said: "Don't worry, sir. Our son is not dead yet. Now that things have come to this, you must not be distracted. Although we can afford to lose, we must not lose until we are at the end of our rope."
Zhang Wuji took a deep breath, and the stone in his heart felt a little relieved.
Afterwards, he first ordered Yin Yewang: "General Yin, I give you three thousand soldiers to meet Zhao Min's infantry. The combat effectiveness of cavalry is far superior to that of infantry. I don't have many soldiers now, only three thousand people. It would be best if you can defeat Zhao Min's ten thousand vanguards. If you can't defeat them, you must try to delay time as much as possible. If you retreat without my order, you will be killed."
At this point, King Yin Ye dared not say a word.
He immediately mobilized three thousand soldiers and went to meet them.
Seeing this, Wei Yixiao on the side hurriedly said to Zhang Wuji: "Your Majesty, I am also willing to fight."
Zhang Wuji waved his hand and said: "Don't panic. Nearly 200,000 people from both sides of the enemy have gathered here. Zhao Min's army is twice as many as ours. The battle has just begun. Here is your chance to make a contribution."
…
The battle had indeed just begun, but Zhang Wuji and other generals no longer dared to count on the reinforcements under Yang Xiao. The soldiers under Yang Xiao were almost all infantry, and it was impossible for them to arrive so quickly.
Whether this battle can be won depends only on the cavalry of less than 60,000 people under Zhang Wuji's command.
…
Looking at King Yin Ye's side, the 3,000 cavalrymen he led were originally heading straight for the center of the 10,000 infantry, and were trying to break through them.
But when they were less than a hundred feet away from the 10,000 infantrymen, King Yin Ye took the lead in changing the direction of his horse's galloping.
Under the leadership of King Yin Ye, the 3,000 cavalrymen under his command shifted slightly to the left.
At a distance of a hundred feet, under the cavalry's charge, the two armies gathered together in just a blink of an eye.
Yin Yewang's cavalry cut directly into the leftmost side of the Yuan army's infantry phalanx.
These 3,000 cavalrymen, all armed with spears, and with the inertia generated by their galloping horses, they cut off a layer of skin on the leftmost side of the Yuan army's square formation in almost an instant. Nearly 200 to 300 Yuan soldiers were immediately stabbed to death on the spot by the Ming army's spears.
Looking back at the Yuan army formation in front of them, the Yuan army general who was holding the formation immediately ordered to shoot arrows. Almost at this moment, countless arrows flew straight towards their Yin Yewang cavalry.
But perhaps because the war horses were galloping, most of the Yuan army's arrows lost their accuracy.
But even so, it still caused hundreds of casualties among the Ming army.
King Yin Ye and his soldiers were still galloping on horseback.
He knew that the biggest advantage of cavalry was mobility. At this moment, Zhao Min's army was only two or three miles away from Zhang Wuji's army. In such an environment, the cavalry could only launch one charge in a short period of time. If they were entangled, the cavalry would lose its advantage.
That's why King Yin Ye did not choose to break into the Yuan army's formation. If he had, he would have been pinned down by the Yuan army's infantry and lost his mobility.
Yin Yewang's 3,000 cavalrymen first broke into the Yuan army from the left side. After cutting off a layer of skin from the Yuan army, they did not stop at all, but continued to circle around the square formation of 10,000 Yuan armymen.
Under this roundabout and continuous charge, the 10,000-strong Yuan army formation was compressed smaller and smaller.
