Time passed day by day, the crossbowmen of Xihe City went out at night, relying on the strength of the crowd, wearing armor, and hit the grassland warriors hard, Zhao Min knew it for the first time, and did not have any attempt, and directly ordered to withdraw, until the next day, let people continue, piling up the earthen wall.

Because she knew that although there were many archers of the steppe warriors, at night, they lost the aim that the steppe warriors were best at, and the crossbowmen were afraid that the crossbowmen in armor were not as good as one percent of the day, while the crossbowmen did not need to aim, and the range was much farther than the archers, and a covering blow was enough to make the steppe warriors suffer heavy losses.

However, Zhao Min was not so quiet, and continued to let people dig the soil at night, pile it up, or put it in a cowhide bag and wait for the day to directly transport the soil to Xihe City with a pack horse, and pile it up, the speed is not at all slow as before, and even a little faster, but in three days, the soil has accumulated within fifty meters of Xihe City, at this speed, I am afraid that a breakthrough of 100 meters long and 10 meters wide will be completed in a few days.

"Kill ............!!"

It was another round of fighting, and the arrows on both sides rained down like a forest, constantly shooting out at each other, clanging and screaming.

Both sides seem to be deadlocked, there is no new idea every day, fighting around the constantly built earthen wall, to Zuihou almost every moment there are people to sacrifice, that is, Xihe City is fully armed, a few days down there are also more than a dozen crossbowmen, crossbow arrows consume twenty or thirty thousand, the entire Xihe City crossbowmen are all resting in turn, and there are many people who make crossbows make their arms swollen.

And the steppe warriors died even more, and the fifty-meter road lay almost three thousand people.

But Zhao Min didn't care, and the others didn't care, because during this time, some of the warriors of the grassland tribes who rushed to join from the grassland after hearing the news made up for their losses, and it didn't matter how many people died, as long as they could take Xihe City, not to mention that the number of people they died was really small, and the desire to capture Xihe City seemed to be far away.

"Alright, take down all the earthen walls in front, throw the earth behind, and make a dirt slope for the cavalry to rush up directly! Forget it, I'll leave this matter to you! Zhao Min came to Xihe City again, looking at the two sides who insisted, and was a little dissatisfied.

Because there is no supervision all the time, and those hard-headed subordinates under him do not use their brains, and there is nowhere to hide on the flat earthen wall, isn't this a target for Xihe City? I don't know that by demolishing the earthen wall in front, it will be good to cover on the one hand, and it can save time on the other hand, anyway, what she needs is a road that rushes directly to Ruxihe City, not an earthen wall.

Ignoring the subordinates who were busy after receiving her order, Zhao Min looked at Xihe City, frowned lightly, and secretly thought: "This Xihe City is really bearable, it stands to reason that he is not panicked, does he still have any tricks?" No, no, unless he can wipe out all the dirt slopes overnight, when the dirt slopes are completed, what will Xihe City use to hold back the endless army? ”

Zhao Min couldn't help but ask Kutoutuo, "Master, what do you say they think!" ”

Kutoutuo didn't answer Zhao Min's words, and asked, "Didn't you think of it a long time ago?" ”

Zhao Min was slightly stunned, then reacted, showed a wry smile, and said: "Yes, I have thought of it a long time ago, but I can't choose, I can't do it, I really can't do it!" ”

Kutoutuo looked at Zhao Min's painful expression and sighed incomparably in his heart.

Zhao Min never thought about attacking Xihe City from beginning to end, or rather, because of Zhang Wuji, she was reluctant to attack Xihe City, she was afraid that she would really break off with Zhang Wuji, but she was also angry at Zhang Wuji's ruthlessness, so she had the last time she borrowed a knife to kill people and establish power.

And she behaved just as she wanted to do, hoping to force out the army of Xihe City for a decisive battle, and when the time came, she would see Zhang Wuji on the battlefield.

Zhao Min is like this, she is still unwilling to give up even though she has come to this point, but on the other hand, as a Mongolian, and her ambitions, she can't leave it behind, so she wants to force out the army of Xihe City, so as to force Zhang Wuji out and make a decision.

"Let's go back!" Zhao Min glanced at Xihe City with complicated eyes, and Lama went back directly.

On the other hand, in Xihe City, Zhang Wuji can't be bored, his mind is complicated, like Zhao Min, he also chooses between feelings and nationalities, but he is not as decisive as Zhao Min, because he is not a woman, although men are sensual, but they are much more rational than women.

For him, Zhao Min can give up his former ideals, give up the nation, choose to force out the Xihe soldiers, and see him on the battlefield, whether it is war or peace, choose her or the country, and choose Zhou Zhiruo.

But Zhang Wuji couldn't, he saw too many people die tragically under the iron hooves of the Yuan army, he couldn't join hands with Zhao Min, and ignore the people of the world, but he also couldn't give up this relationship, a relationship that was enough for him to pay for his life, just like he couldn't sit idly by and ignore the people of the world.

"If only you weren't a Mongol!"

Zhang Wuji looked at the sky and was distracted, his heart was full of bitterness and pain, he was suffering, these days, he figured out a lot, but it was precisely because he figured it out that he got out of the contradiction, but he fell into the abyss of pain, sometimes he even gave up on himself and hoped that he hadn't figured it out, but when he came to his senses, he had to face such an unselectable situation now.

"It's all about to be done!" Jia Xu opened his mouth and said: "Lord, when the earth wall is connected, it will be the time for my army to attack!" ”

"Huh?!" Zhang Yuan was slightly stunned, and said suspiciously: "Mr. Wenhe, the soil slope has just been connected, Zhao Min will definitely be wary of our sneak attack at that time!" ”

As long as Zhao Min was not a fool, he would have thought that Xihe City would take advantage of this time to attack, so that her plans would be in vain.

"The county lord of the Yuan Dynasty is a smart person, and it is precisely because he is a smart person that he will not think that we will sneak attack!" Jia Xu smiled and fanned the feather fan, and said: "If you are any person, you will be wary at that time, even the county lord of the Yuan Dynasty is the same, but it is one thing to be vigilant, and it is another thing to be vigilant in your heart, compared to other times, this is indeed the most haode opportunity!" ”

Smart people always like to think about complicated things, Zhao Min tried his best to deal with Xihe City, and Xihe City still stood still.

In this way, Zhao Min would not believe that Zhang Yuan, who was on the same level as her, would clumsily choose to attack when she had the strongest defense, but Jia Xu Pianpian suggested that Zhang Yuan attack at this time, which was a grasp of human nature.
