When Zhang Wuji and his group slowly returned to his camp, it was almost dusk.
…
In Caizhou, strangely enough, it rained for several hours, but it stopped at dusk.
When the last ray of sunset came into Zhao Min's eyes, her tense mood that had lasted for the whole day was finally relieved.
Of the 30,000 soldiers led by Duan Zihao, more than 20,000 had been killed or wounded, and the few remaining soldiers had long since become a spent force.
This battle to attack Caizhou may have become the bloodiest battle fought by the Mongols since they conquered the Central Plains.
In the past six hours, these Mongolian soldiers armed with scimitars have restored the bloodiness of their ancestors.
Their disregard for life and death won Zhao Min the most appropriate opportunity.
…
In Caizhou City, Guo Zixing actually breathed a sigh of relief at this time.
He believed that with the arrival of night, today's offensive and defensive battle should be coming to an end.
"There is sufficient food and grass in Caizhou City. We can afford the consumption, but the Mongols cannot. In addition, the Mongols' casualties are more serious than his. After such a brutal siege, Zhao Min may lead the remaining troops to retreat in a few days."
Guo Zixing had a good idea, but he didn't understand Zhao Min.
For Zhao Min, the general attack on Caizhou has just begun.
Zhao Min slowly drew out the sword of the Heavenly Sword. She had suppressed her emotions for the entire day, and at this moment, they finally burst out.
The dragon roar emitted by the Yitian Sword was also unprecedentedly loud.
Zhao Min turned her head and shouted to the Yuan army behind her: "Soldiers, our brothers in front have been attacking for us for six hours. Now, it's our turn."
"Wave the scimitars in your hands to avenge our brothers who died in battle today, and let our ancestors in heaven see that our generation has not brought shame to them."
"Today, this Queen Mother is giving you the final order."
"If I fall, please don't stop charging. The future of the Yuan Empire depends on your courage today."
"Charge, take Caizhou in one go."
Along with Zhao Min's almost crazy shout, the 50,000 soldiers behind her also burst into shouts of killing that resounded through the heavens and the earth.
Hundreds of ladders surged to the foot of Caizhou City like a tide.
Thousands of archers in Zhao Min's army also shot arrows like raindrops at the same time under the city.
All this sudden happening made Guo Zixing on the city wall feel unprecedented fear.
Not only Guo Zixing, but even the generals under him were a little confused.
Taking advantage of the last rays of sunset, Zhao Min launched a charge of 50,000 people. They could never have imagined such a desperate tactic.
The area under Caizhou City was already filled with corpses. Among those corpses were dead Yuan army soldiers and the rebel army under Guo Zixing. In some places, the corpses were even piled more than ten feet high.
The soldiers under Zhao Min directly placed the ladders on top of these corpses.
This can shorten the climbing height, and the Yuan soldiers attacking the city can climb the city wall faster.
Under the last ray of sunset, the faces of every Yuan army soldier looked extremely ferocious. These ferocious expressions seemed to make the rebels defending the city feel the fear from hell.
Even some timid people have begun to retreat involuntarily.
On the city wall, the generals led by Ding Taian saw this and hurriedly drew their swords from their waists.
After killing a cowardly soldier, Ding Taian hurriedly said to the messenger beside him: "Quick, mobilize the troops in the city to guard this place together. The rain has stopped. Quickly use kerosene to burn these Mongolian Tartars to death, quickly, quickly..."
Following Ding Taian's order, more than a dozen barrels of kerosene poured down again.
A sea of fire appeared again under the city of Caizhou.
But what Ding Taian and his men did not expect was that those Yuan army soldiers, with flames burning on their bodies, actually climbed to the top of the city wall despite the burning pain.
Their bodies were already engulfed in flames, and dozens of firemen, with their last bit of consciousness, waved their scimitars.
Even veterans who have been on many battles may not have seen such a formation.
"It's so scary."
Just as Zhao Min said, all the Yuan army soldiers did not stop charging, even she herself.
Relying on her superb cultivation, Zhao Min has already stood on the top of the city wall.
The sword in her hand had already killed dozens of people.
Zhao Min came to Duan Zihao, the first-rank general whom she had just appointed that morning, and he had been fighting for six hours straight.
If it weren't for his superb cultivation, he would have died of exhaustion long ago.
"Mr. Duan, please take a rest and leave the rest to me."
The moment Duan Zihao saw Zhao Min, he knew that the great thing had been accomplished.
Duan Zihao sat limply on the ground: "Empress Dowager, congratulations on taking Caizhou."
Zhao Min didn't waste any more time talking to Duan Zihao, she waved the sword in her hand again.
Duan Zihao was exhausted at this moment. In Caizhou City and within a thousand miles, Zhao Min was the best in the world.
Every time the Yitian Sword is swung, it will bring about a majestic sword energy.
The sword energy was indestructible and unstoppable.
With Zhao Min personally leading the way, more and more Yuan army soldiers climbed up the city wall.
From less than a hundred people at the beginning to more than a thousand people now.
There was chaos on the city wall of Caizhou.
Countless Yuan soldiers rushed to the top of the city, but the rebel army under Guo Zixing also surged like a tide.
