Zhou Zhiruo's words were almost like a blow to Zhao Min.
Zhao Min glared at Zhang Wuji fiercely: "Did you really plan this back then?"
Zhang Wuji was stunned for a moment. Although this was indeed his plan back then, how could he admit what he had done now?
"Min'er, don't listen to Zhiruo's nonsense. It's not like that. In fact, I have fallen in love with you for a long time. The war between you and me, after all, is just that I want to get you. If I can't get you, what's the use of getting the whole world? It would be boring if I don't even have someone to share it with."
After hearing this, Zhao Min couldn't help but laugh: "Hmph, you, my enemy, are really good at talking."
"However, it doesn't matter even if you, my enemy, really planned this in the beginning. In that case, I would only say that you still have national justice in your heart. It doesn't matter if you give the country to Zhu Yuanzhang. It is better than it falling into my hands."
…
Sakura was under custody, or rather, not really under custody.
Zhao Min handed her over to the local laborers who were recruited, and she was with the group of female laborers who were responsible for sewing for the army.
Of course, it is inevitable to recruit labor on the spot.
Since ancient times, soldiers have been only responsible for fighting, while the so-called civilians who follow the army do other things.
If Zhang Wuji didn't still have some dignity to save, he probably wouldn't even bother to take care of the logistics. Just like during the Five Barbarians' Invasion of China, he would just get a flock of two-legged sheep and eat wherever he went. There would be nothing wrong with that.
…
Ten days later.
Zhao Min and Zhang Wuji, protected by hundreds of death warriors, sneaked into the route that Inoue Yu's army had to take.
Some things can only be confirmed by seeing them with your own eyes.
But Zhao Min wanted to see it with her own eyes. At a glance, Inoue Yu's 200,000-strong army was endless, which was truly spectacular.
Zhang Wuji said: "In fact, Japan can be regarded as a powerful country. There are 200,000 people in front of us, and there are also 200,000 people in Tokyo City. When we conquered Zhu Yuanzhang, I didn't have so many soldiers."
Zhao Min glared at Zhang Wuji and said, "Hmph, that's because you risked your son's life to fight with me."
"Even if you are here now, you may not be able to muster 400,000 troops."
Zhang Wuji's face showed a slight embarrassment: "That's right, that's right, I may not be able to mobilize 400,000 soldiers and horses now. Even when Min'er was defeated, she was still far superior to me."
Zhao Min glared at Zhang Wuji again, and after seeing the embarrassed expression on her man's face, she felt a little bit of pity in her heart.
So he spoke again to comfort her: "Okay, don't be embarrassed. I had a lot of soldiers and horses in the past, but I was just warmongering. The military pay and food were not enough. In order to raise the military pay, I even scraped off the golden body of my ancestor."
"The same is true for Japan now. Even though they have an army of 400,000, it is a very difficult thing for such a small country to support 400,000 troops. We have also seen the living conditions of the people in Japan recently. Their eyes are dull, and it is obvious that they have been oppressed and have lost their souls."
"But your Ming Dynasty is different. The soldiers under your command have always been within the country's affordability. They are well-trained and well-fed, and you pay them monthly. These are the real fighting troops."
Suddenly, a hint of joy flashed in Zhang Wuji's eyes. He grabbed Zhao Min's hand, and then with a little force, pulled her onto his horse's back.
Zhang Wuji hugged her tightly in his arms: "Min'er, can I take what you said just now as a compliment to me?"
Zhao Min struggled a little, but when she saw that Zhang Wuji really had no intention of letting her go, she gave up.
Just hold him for a while, in fact, Zhao Min also likes being held by Zhang Wuji like this. Nothing can make her feel more secure than having a man behind her.
However, Zhao Min really admired Zhang Wuji's courage and mentality. Three miles away was Inoue Yu's 200,000-strong army. In such a situation, Zhang Wuji still had the courage to touch her.
To put it nicely, he is a romantic man, to put it bluntly, he is a lustful man.
Zhao Min sighed and said, "If I were your talent, of course I am praising you. In fact, you still have many good points. Even in leading troops in battle, you are not weak. This expedition to Japan is just to take my feelings into consideration. Otherwise, even if you personally serve as the commander-in-chief, you will definitely achieve a great victory."
"Also, you are far better than me in governing the country, and you are even better at knowing how to use people. In short, you are already very good."
Zhang Wuji was delighted, and then he kissed Zhao Min hard on the cheek: "Min'er, since I am perfect in your heart, why don't you praise me more often?"
Zhao Minyan said: "Praise? Don't those vixens around you often say those words? If there are many people saying something, it won't matter if there is only one of them, like me."
Zhang Wuji put his nose on Zhao Min's snow-white neck and sucked hard a few times. After feeling the man's movement behind her, Zhao Min just hesitated for a moment, and then let him do it.
"Your enemy, the smell on me is not as good as your Zhiruo's."
Zhang Wuji smiled and said, "They each have their own merits. There is only one Zhiruo in the world, but there is only one of you, Zhao Min, right? You have always been my only one, and now, you are even more my only one."
After hearing this, Zhao Min felt indescribably warm in her heart.
No matter how strong a woman is, there must be a man behind her. Feeling the warmth of the chest behind her, Zhao Min couldn't control her thoughts and said, "Your enemy, I haven't been with you for a long time. I really want to have a crazy time with you."
Zhang Wuji smiled wickedly: "How is today?"
"As long as Min'er has a request, I will definitely respond."
After hearing this, Zhao Min was dazed for a moment and then broke free from Zhang Wuji's warm embrace.
She exerted a little effort and jumped back onto her horse: "Hmph, you rascal, you almost fell for me."
"From now on, I have to be careful with your mouth. You say things that I like to hear, and then you make me lose my mind."
Zhang Wuji laughed and said, "What's the matter? Could it be that Min'er doesn't like to listen?"
Zhao Min quickly said: "No, I am also a woman, so of course I like to hear those sweet words, but now is not the time."
"Inoue Yu's 200,000-strong army is not far from us. The war is about to begin. You must not touch me at this time."
"After all, we have been husband and wife for a long time. I am not afraid of you laughing at me. If we touch each other more often, I can't help but think about it. In this kind of crisis moment, if I think too much, it will affect my thinking during the battle."
"The world is about to be at peace, and I'm afraid there won't be many battles left to fight. I want to try my best to make my life perfect."
