Early the next morning, Ji Chang led the troops while Nangong Shi came to the city gate to challenge them.
"Your Majesty, father, I request to fight.”Su Quanzhong kneeled in the tunnel.
"Go, be careful." Yin Shou nodded. He was very confident in Su Quanzhong's strength. After all, Chonghou Hu had so many generals, yet he had killed them all by himself.
Without Jiang Ziya's support, Xi Qi's martial strength was not much different from Chonghou Hu's. After all, they were vassal states of the same scale.
Su Quanzhong led his troops out of the city to meet the enemy. When Nangong Shi saw Su Quanzhong, he immediately became cautious. Clearly, he had heard of Su Quanzhong's name before.
Su Quanzhong completely disregarded Nangong Shi as he raised his halberd and charged at him.
Nangong Shi raised his saber to meet the enemy, but he was no match for Su Quanzhong. After just one exchange, Nangong Shi felt as if the web between his thumb and forefinger was about to split open.
The two of them fought for more than ten rounds, and Su Quanzhong managed to kill Nangong Shi with his halberd, instantly boosting the morale of Jizhou City.
Ji Chang turned pale with fright. He had not expected the start to be unfavorable and hurriedly sounded the bell to withdraw his troops.
Su Quanzhong returned to Jizhou City in high spirits.
"Your Majesty, Father, I have not failed you.”
"General Su is really a hero from a young age.”Yin Shanran looked at Su Quanzhong with admiration.
Even though he had learned martial arts from Xing Tian for a month or two, he could only suppress Su Quanzhong by a bit. If it was Yin Shanbei from before, he really wouldn't be able to defeat him.
Xing Tian was a member of the Sorcerer Tribe, so he couldn't teach him any spells. He could only train his body. His progress was slow in the early stages, but once he was connected, he would be invincible.
Yin Shou still had high hopes for him. The Battle of Gods Investiture might play a key role.
On the other side, Ji Chang was full of worry. It was a big taboo to have a bad start. Losing in the first round was not a good sign.
"Prime Minister, do you have any good plans?" Ji Chang asked Jiang Ziya.
"We can try to persuade Su Hu to surrender. Su Hu loves his people like his own children, and the king is famous. When the time comes, we can persuade Su Hu and work together from the inside and outside to take down Jizhou City in one fell swoop.”
Jiang Ziya's imagination was really wild. You led the army to attack them, and now you want to persuade them to surrender?
She didn't know if he was overconfident in his ability to talk or if he felt that he was standing on the moral high ground.
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Prime Minister. I'll think of a way to cover you and sneak into Jizhou City tonight.”Ji Chang asked.
"No need. This lowly subject has learned some minor magic techniques and knows some escape techniques. This lowly subject can sneak into Jizhou City at night.”
As night fell, Jiang Ziya disappeared with an Earth Escape. When he reappeared, he was already outside Su Hu's room.
Su Hu was studying the art of war in his room when he suddenly heard a knock on the door. He couldn't help but feel puzzled.
"Who is it?"
"General Su, it's me, Jiang Ziya.”Jiang Ziya whispered.
When Su Hu heard that it was Jiang Ziya, he couldn't help but remember Yin Shou's warning.
Yinshou had predicted that Jiang Ziya would run over to talk nonsense if he couldn't win, so he told Su Hu in advance that if he came, he would pretend to agree. Then, he would trick Xiqi's men into Jizhou City and beat them up.
"Prime Minister Jiang? How did you get in at night?”
Su Hu opened the door and asked.
"This poor priest knows some trivial magic, it's not worth mentioning. I'm here for General Su's sake.”
Jiang Ziya pretended to be compassionate.
"Oh? What do you mean? Prime Minister Jiang, please come in." Su Hu said as he let Jiang Ziya in.
"General Su, you might not know this, but Cheng Tang's fate has been exhausted. The Zhou family will rise.”
Jiang Ziya said righteously.
Su Hu laughed coldly in his heart, but his face remained expressionless.
"Why do you say that? Right now, Great Shang's monarch and his subjects were united, and everything was developing in a good direction.”Su Hu pretended to be confused.
"General Su, you only know one thing but don't know the other. A few days ago, when King Zhou paid his respects to Goddess Nvywa's temple, he actually dared to tease Goddess Nvywa recklessly. Goddess Nvywa was furious, so I said that Tang's life was over. With such a fatuous ruler, it was only a matter of time before the country was destroyed.”
Jiang Ziya said seriously.
When Su Hu heard this, he couldn't help but laugh coldly in his heart. If the Emperor was a fatuous ruler, then there wouldn't be a wise ruler. He was just a hypocrite.
"What does Prime Minister Jiang mean by this?”Su Hu said.
"Since ancient times, good birds choose trees to live in, and good officials choose their masters to serve. If you follow King Zhou, you will be finished sooner or later. General Su, why don't you abandon the darkness and join the light as soon as possible?”
At this moment, Jiang Ziya's mouth was full of fire.
"I'll think about it. I'll give Prime Minister Jiang a reply in two days.”Su Hu probed.
Jiang Ziya panicked when he heard Su Hu's words. He thought to himself," Who can beat Su Quanzhong in two days?"
"General Su, you still have to make a decision early. Since ancient times, there have been no indecisive people who have achieved great things.”Jiang Ziya continued to persuade.
"Alright, Prime Minister Jiang, what should we do?”Su Hu slapped his thigh.
As soon as Jiang Ziya approached Jizhou City, Yin Shou sensed it. After all, the difference in cultivation between the two was too great. At this moment, Yin Shou was full of warmth and did not have the time to pay attention to Jiang Ziya.
"Your Majesty, I think I can try the posture you taught me last time.”Daji whispered into Yin Shou's ear.
As a modern person, Yin Shou was naturally familiar with all kinds of postures, so he would often teach Daji some strange postures. Daji never rejected anyone.
