Chapter 266 I Really Want to Spend My Life with You
"In this era, women's education is all about being virtuous and kind. They can step out of the door, but they may not be able to leave home and do whatever they want."
"There are very few women like you. Miss Jiang has a heroic demeanor and character that is no less than that of a man. You don't have to be so hard on yourself."
Chu Xi comes from the future, so he doesn't think that defending the country is only a man's job.
Throughout history, there have been so many outstanding women, but few are known to the public.
If she has the ability and the idea, why not let her serve the country?
Anyway, as long as she hasn't collapsed, she will do her best to take care of Jiang Zhenyao.
I will never let her suffer here.
Jiang Zhenyao laughed heartily upon hearing this, "I knew you would understand me and be the confidant I have been looking for all my life."
Compared to getting married, she prefers the present situation, doing what she wants to do and living as her true self.
Even if she really died here just now, she would have a clear conscience and would not let down the tens of thousands of people in the city.
"The Great Zhou has a vast world. Who says that a woman's future must be tied to her husband? Who stipulates that women cannot fight in battle? I believe I am no less capable than other men, so why not?"
"From ancient times to the present, there have been women who have accomplished great things. When women are smart, they are no less intelligent than any man."
"If it weren't for the restrictions and bondage imposed on women by the secular world, we would be able to make a name for ourselves."
If her father didn't want to be caught by His Majesty, she would have gone straight to the emperor to beg for mercy.
Let yourself join the army smoothly, even if you start as a small soldier, don't mind.
"You're right." Chu Xi chuckled.
Sure enough, from ancient times to the present, there have been many women with awakened thoughts.
They are unwilling to be bound by worldly constraints and bondage.
They want to break through the layers of wrapping, transform from cocoons into butterflies, and bloom brilliantly.
Refusing to accept fate and refusing to bow her head is Jiang Zhenyao's silent resistance to the world.
"Your idea will come true one day, and the times will eventually accept the progress of women from the backyard to the temple."
Although it will take hundreds or even thousands of years, the future is promising.
"We are truly a match made in heaven!" She patted Chu Xi's shoulders twice, without any flirtatious or ambiguous intention.
"I knew you would understand me."
Chu Xi, "......"
Just let it go, they are a perfect match.
Jiang Zhenyao smiled brightly, and her temperament was even more generous and bold than many men.
"When the battle in Xi'an is over, I will have a good drink with you."
Father Jiang always responded to her requests. When she wanted to learn martial arts, he allowed her to learn it and even arranged for her to learn it with her brothers.
During the years she was stationed in Xi'an, she could go out of the city as she pleased to ride horses, practice shooting, and drink.
Xi'an means a lot to her, and many people in the city once knew her.
She’s even seen some of the kids grow up.
This city has such special significance that she doesn't want to see it fall into the hands of the enemy, even if it costs her life.
"Okay." Chu Xi chuckled, "When the war is over, I'll treat you to a drink. You'll definitely be able to drink."
This sentence was also a disguised assurance to Jiang Zhenyao that he would protect her and let her return to Beijing alive.
He did not persuade Jiang Zhenyao to leave, nor did he say any high-sounding principles.
Compared to most women who have been tamed by the times, she believes that Jiang Zhenyao has her own ideas.
She must have her own reasons for staying, and it must have been a well-thought-out decision.
Respecting other people's choices and not talking too much have always been Chu Xi's principles in life.
Jiang Zhenyao smiled, her eyes sparkling, "If I didn't dislike having children, I would really want to spend my whole life with you."
How nice it would be if the rest of our lives could live like this.
It is rare to have a man who respects a woman and can resonate with her.
Chu Xi, "......"
Don’t think about this.
Even if she wanted to have a baby, she didn't have the ability.
Seeing that Qi Bai suddenly became quiet, Jiang Zhenyao put her hand on his shoulder and laughed for a long time without restraint, laughing so hard that she couldn't straighten her waist.
Then, suddenly, the subject changed.
"How many reinforcements are there? The South Gate can hold out for now, but the soldiers at the East and West Gates have suffered heavy casualties after fighting day and night for the past few days."
The most crucial thing is that Nanmen had 10,000 troops against Western Chu's 80,000, which was a huge disparity in numbers.
By this calculation, if the reinforcements are too few in number, they will not be able to resolve the predicament in Xi'an City.
Once the city of Xi'an is breached, the Eighth Prince will definitely not leave anyone alive, as that would pose too great a threat to him.
He had to worry day and night about whether the truth of the matter would be leaked out.
For this reason, no matter whether Western Chu is willing to let go of the hundreds of thousands of people in Xi'an or not, the Eighth Prince will never let them go.
"It may be difficult to resist here." Jiang Zhenyao said solemnly, "Their fighting power is no worse than the defenders trained by my father."
The combat effectiveness of the Western Chu soldiers was much higher than that of the Xianyang rebels as a whole.
The Xianyang rebels had neglected training for years, and to put it bluntly, their combat effectiveness was only slightly better than that of the elderly, the weak, women and children.
The 80,000 soldiers of Western Chu are all elite troops. Judging from their formation and combat effectiveness, they must have been training hard every day.
With such hard training, I think they have already made preparations to attack Da Zhou and capture cities and ponds.
Chu Xi thought for a moment, "There are only 20,000 reinforcements. When Xianyang City is recaptured, General Han should immediately send someone to send an urgent letter back to the capital at an altitude of 800 miles, so that His Majesty can make a decision."
The deployment of troops requires your majesty's order.
His Majesty is more wary of military generals than civil officials. Once His Majesty investigates the matter afterwards, even if they saved the city of Xi'an from its predicament in time, I am afraid they will still be blamed by His Majesty afterwards.
The most terrifying thing is never the enemy’s strength, but the strength from within.
The Zhou Dynasty's imperial court has become corrupt, and your majesty's incompetence and fear have gradually pushed the dynasty to the brink of collapse.
Even if there are no external enemies, one day, the Great Zhou will be overthrown.
Chu Xi's joining alone cannot reverse the one-sided situation at the South Gate.
After Han Yaojun treated his wounds and discussed with Zhou Yichen, he dispatched 10,000 troops to participate in the battle.
The South Gate is under the greatest pressure right now, and he is temporarily unable to allocate troops to provide support to the other two gates.
The North Gate was finally taken back, he couldn't send all his men out, what if Qi Jianshu led his troops to attack again...

When they were worried about food and medicine, a group of people suddenly came from the direction of Xianyang City.
There were several hundred people transporting food and medicinal materials. They were a huge and conspicuous target.
The soldiers observed this flat terrain from a long distance.
The young soldier quickly reported the news to Han Yaojun. Han Yaojun thought that Xi Chu had made some backup plans and asked the archers to be prepared.
As a result... the soldiers sent to observe closely soon came back and said that the team was wearing the armor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and it was not certain whether they were reinforcements or rebels...
As the team got closer, Han Yaojun noticed that Chu Er was also in the team.
He thought about it, and when he saw those eye-catching cars, his eyes flashed, as if he thought of something.
He raised his hand and ordered, "Open the city gate."
