"Overlord, brothers discovered this sneaky guy on the banks of the Surabaya River."
???
What kind of game is this?
Xiang Ji was a little confused when he saw Yu Ji sneaking over under the armor of his subordinates.
Why are you wearing a Taoist robe and your body is covered with water plants? What kind of art are you doing here with me? Are you pretending to be a kappa here with me? This is China, you are in the wrong place.
ok?
It turned out that Yu Ji, who had gone in the wrong direction, ran all the way down and happened to arrive at the bank of the Surabaya River.
He originally planned to take a rest, but the sound of hoofbeats from Xiang Ji and his Canglong Cavalry alarmed Yu Ji who was resting.
Not understanding the situation, Yu Ji simply disguised himself and half-hidden by the river to observe who the sudden appearance of the cavalry team belonged to.
But before he could see anyone, he was discovered by the startled Cang Longqi.
Yu Ji was already short in stature, not to mention an old man, so his weight was naturally very light. As a result, he was roughly carried all the way over by Cang Longqi.
Originally, Yu Ji was still forming words in his stomach, intending to get away with it, but when he heard what Cang Longqi said when he reported to Xiang Ji, he was stunned.
Overlord?
At this time, who can be called the overlord?
Xiang Ji, the overlord of Chu! Sun Ce, the little overlord of Jiangdong!
I have seen the little bully Yu Ji, but this one is obviously not the one.
Then, things are very clear.
The excited Yu Ji realized that the reinforcements he had missed so much were in front of him, and he couldn't hold himself back and burst into tears.
???
Am I crazy?
I haven't done anything to you yet, why are you crying like this?
Yu Ji's sudden cry made Xiang Ji even more confused.
What's going on, you were caught doing performance art? It's shameful?
"I said, old man, the lonely king hasn't said what to do with you yet, has he? Why are you crying?"
Xiang Ji never said a word to his enemies.
But when it comes to treating an old man, Xiang Ji is not so unkind.
Moreover, no matter which angle he looked at it, Xiang Ji absolutely did not believe that this guy could be a scout sent by Liu Bei.
"Overlord, Old Taoist, Old Taoist has finally found you."
Yu Ji was so excited to find the organization that he almost felt dizzy. What's more, he found the leader of the organization, Xiang Ji, King of Chu!
For Ji, if he found other reinforcements, such as a certain general from Pengcheng, it would just be a matter of delivering the news to Xiapi asking for reinforcements.
But it's different when you find Xiang Ji.
You know, Yu Ji's most fundamental purpose is to find a sponsor to fund his construction of Taoist temples and spread Taoism.
The former Taishi Ci could indeed help Yu Ji do it, but after all, Taishi Ci was only a general in the country and his abilities were limited.
But what about the man in front of me?
He is the lord of Chu State.
Moreover, after Yu Ji heard what Tai Shi Ci said, Xiang Ji led his army to Jiangdong to find the bad luck of the little overlord.
Now that I can meet Xiang Ji here, it is enough to show that the little overlord was KOed by the overlord of Chu.
Yu Ji is not a stupid person, but he is quite smart, otherwise a mere Taoist priest would not leave a trace in history.
By meeting Xiang Ji here, Yu Ji could already conclude that the outcome of the battle between the Chu State and the allied forces conquering Chu was already decided.
After destroying Soochow, the Chu army could free up its hands and feet to deal with Liu Bei and Cao Cao.
In this way, the situation is very clear.
After this battle, Chu State will not only not be destroyed, but will become even stronger and truly become the overlord of Eastern China.
This will be of great help to Ji's missionary work.
As long as I can get Xiang Ji's support, I'm afraid I, Yu Ji, can become a figure like Taoist ancestors, right?
The Zhang Daoling that Liu Pi mentioned before had taken root in Yu Ji's heart.
Who says people outside the country can’t argue?
"You're looking for me? What's the matter? How do you know I'm here?"
This weird old man cries and laughs sometimes, could he be a fool?
Looking at Yu Ji in front of him, Xiang Ji realized that his patience was about to be exhausted.
I have the patience to chat with you here for a long time, why the hell are you going to perform performance art here with me?
But why did this guy say he was looking for me?
And, most importantly, why did he know I would be here at this time?
This is a Taoist priest!
Could it be!?
It's scary to think about it.
Xiang Ji suddenly felt his hands and feet were cold.
Could it be that there really is some supernatural power in this world?
Just when Xiang Ji started to think more and more, Yu Ji spoke.
"Overlord! I am from Xiapi.
As for why I am looking for you and why I met you here, it is a long story..."
After listening to the narration thoroughly, Xiang Ji felt the urge to scold his mother.
Damn it, I thought there was something different about you. You were making trouble for a long time, just because you got lost?
You were wandering around blindly and you met me?
Damn it!
Regarding this result, Xiang Ji didn't know whether he should cry or laugh.
But fortunately, I can still accept it. At least this world is normal and there are no messy supernatural forces.
This is Yu Ji, who is almost said to be a living god-like figure in modern times. He is just an ordinary Taoist priest with a little cleverness.
At most, he just knows some medical skills and knows how to cure diseases and save people.
"Master Yu Ji, Xiang Ji would like to thank you for your generous helping hand.
Whatever Taishi Ci promised you, King Gu will naturally do it for you."
After all, Yu Ji really helped him a lot, and Xiang Ji would not be stingy about sponsoring a Taoist temple for him.
As for preaching in the future? That's his own business. I can't make him a national teacher, right?
After calming down the excited Yu Ji, Xiang Ji got up and returned to the camp where Cang Longqi was resting.
"Send the order to the entire army to light fires and make food. After resting, we will set off immediately."
He didn't know the situation of the battle in Xiapi before, so Xiang Ji tolerated the horse power.
But now, through Yu Ji, Xiang Ji already knows that Xiapi City has reached a point where time is running out.
What else is there to say? Just rush him for two days at most and rest for one night before the war begins.
At the same time, Jia Xu's army, which had returned to the border of Xuzhou, marched all the way down and reached Wuyuan Yiyi.
"Instruct the entire army to rest and regroup here. Our army will make a decision after the scouts return."
After arriving at Wuyuan, the first thing Jia Xu did was to arrange for his troops to rush to Xiapi to inquire about the battle situation.
You know, Wuyuan is only three or four days away from Xiapi.
If you don't even know the enemy's situation, and your 20,000 troops rush over rashly, are you afraid that you won't be delivering food to people?
If it were someone else taking charge, they might rush there without thinking.
But Jia Xu? Are you kidding, the old poisonous guy is calling you for nothing?
