Chapter 87: Beat the Drums to Cheer



Zhou Zhiruo was already thin-skinned, and she had hoped that Zhang Wuji could explain for her, or at least take all the responsibility.

But what she didn't expect was that Zhang Wuji actually pushed all the responsibility onto herself.

And he didn't dare to say it so embarrassingly.

This time, Zhou Zhiruo was really a little angry.

Zhou Zhiruo's mind raced for a moment, and then she looked at Zhang Wuji with anger on her face, tears of grievance welling up in the corners of her eyes.

"Zhang Wuji, how could you and this little vixen bully me together."

"It was obviously you who insisted on hugging me to sleep. Your hands were never still the whole night. You took advantage of me and now you refuse to admit it."

"The more Zhou Zhiruo spoke, the more wronged she felt. After putting on her shoes, she hurried out."

Seeing this, Zhang Wuji cursed himself in his heart, "Damn it, Zhiruo is so thin-skinned, it's better not to make such a joke."

After seeing this scene, Zhu'er just sighed helplessly: "Sister Zhou is too ignorant of the joke. Don't worry, brother Wuji, I will go and get her back."

Zhu'er also hurriedly chased after him.

She thought Zhou Zhiruo would run far away, but what she didn't expect was that this petty sister was just sobbing quietly a few feet away.

Zhu'er quickly stepped forward to comfort her: "My dear sister, Brother Wuji and I were just joking just now. With your intelligence, you should be able to see through it. Look how angry you are. If you are so petty, how can we live together in the future?"

Zhou Zhiruo said angrily: "If we can't live together, the worst that can happen is that I'll just leave."

As she spoke, Zhou Zhiruo acted as if she wanted to break up.

Seeing this, Zhu'er quickly grabbed her and said, "Sister, stop making trouble. You know Brother Wuji. If you really leave, he will definitely leave these 30,000 troops behind to look for you."

"It's just a joke. I admit that you are a fairy, I admit that you are aloof, and I admit that you would not do such a cheating thing."

"I know, it must be because last night, Brother Wuji insisted on hugging you to sleep."

At this moment, Zhang Wuji also caught up.

He first gave Zhu'er a look, and then Zhu'er hid aside.

After seeing Zhu'er leave, Zhang Wuji said nervously: "Zhiruo, I was wrong. I was just joking just now. I really didn't expect that you would be so angry."

"Or, just hit me a few times."

Zhang Wuji grabbed Zhou Zhiruo's hand and hit himself in the face.

Seeing this, Zhou Zhiruo suddenly withdrew her hand. She first glanced at Zhu'er in the distance, and then said.

"You fool, those tears I just shed were for that little vixen Zhu'er to see. If I didn't pretend to be wronged and cry a few times, she would have laughed at me for a long time about this matter."

Zhang Wuji was stunned when he heard this.

"Zhiruo, so you were pretending just now? When did you become so naughty?"

Zhou Zhiruo said: "You are allowed to make fun of me, but can't I fight back? Last night, your hands were not honest at all. I felt like ants were crawling all over my body all night long. Do you know how uncomfortable I was?"

After hearing this, Zhang Wuji smiled embarrassedly: "Zhiruo, actually I was also very uncomfortable last night. The fragrance on your body almost made me unable to control myself."

Zhou Zhiruo quickly said: "This is why I don't let you touch me. I'm afraid you can't control yourself. If you did those things last night, I would be too embarrassed to see anyone."

"Alright, I've almost finished my performance. You should quickly gather the troops and set off. From now on, when you go out to fight, I will never let you touch me again, even if I die..."

After breakfast, Zhang Wuji's 30,000-strong army continued to advance towards Longcheng.

On the other side, Zhao Min had already deployed her formation.

At the foot of Caizhou City, her 80,000-strong army was ready for battle.

Zhao Min held two golden wine glasses filled with fine wine, and she handed one of the glasses to Duan Zihao.

"Mr. Duan, the next six hours depend on you."

"After this is accomplished, you will be a first-rank general of the Yuan Dynasty, with the same rank as Wang Baobao. As for the other things I promised you, I will do them as soon as possible."

"It will only take one or two years at most. After one or two years, I will be crowned emperor, and then you will be the King of Yunnan. As long as my Yuan Empire still exists, your Duan family will be able to inherit the throne in Yunnan."

Duan Zihao picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.

"Queen Mother, I am still serving you today, and it's not just for the so-called King of Yunnan."

"Although you are a woman, you have extraordinary talent. I am honored to be by your side."

Zhao Min led her army on this long expedition in the hope of achieving a quick victory.

The Jianghuai region is Guo Zixing's stronghold. If Caizhou cannot be taken as soon as possible, some unexpected changes will definitely occur.

Therefore, Zhao Min decided that no matter what the cost, she must take Caizhou within one day.

In the next six hours, Duan Zihao will personally lead 30,000 soldiers to attack the city. These 30,000 soldiers are Zhao Min's bait. Zhao Min does not expect these 30,000 soldiers to capture Caizhou.

Zhao Min only hoped that these 30,000 troops could exhaust the 70,000 defenders in the city and use up all the arrows in the city. Six hours later, taking advantage of the last rays of sunset, Zhao Min would personally lead the remaining 50,000 troops to attack. If she could capture Caizhou, she would personally chop off Guo Zixing's head.

If they were defeated, it would only mean that the Yuan Empire was about to end, and Zhao Min was ready to die in battle.

Beside the war drum, Zhao Min rolled up her sleeves like a man.

She picked up two heavy drumsticks and hit the war drum that carried hope hard.

Accompanied by the sound of drums, dozens of ladders rushed to the foot of Caizhou City with the momentum of an overwhelming force.

Duan Zihao looked back.

Even a tall and strong man couldn't help but have tears in his eyes.

The Empress Dowager of the Yuan Empire personally beat the drum to cheer him on. Even if Duan Zihao died in battle under the city of Caizhou, his life would not be in vain.

On the Caizhou city wall, Guo Zixing was also excited when he saw this.

Although he hated the corruption of the Yuan Empire, he also admired the Empress Dowager of the Yuan Dynasty from the bottom of his heart.

A woman who can achieve this, and only such a person, is worthy of inheriting the Golden Family.

The shouts and cries of killing had broken the sky and could be heard clearly from miles around.

Guo Zixing quickly said to the generals beside him: "Everyone, the safety of Caizhou depends entirely on you."

Duan Zihao's attack was fierce, but the resistance he encountered was even fiercer.

On the city wall, arrows poured down like raindrops, and countless Yuan soldiers died on the spot before they could climb the ladders.

Even if a few Yuan soldiers managed to climb up the city wall, they were killed by swords in an instant.
