Seeing Xi Qi trapped, Jiang Ziya was helpless.
"The grain stored in the third warehouse can only be used for ten days at most.”
Jiang Ziya's head hurt even more when he heard the report from the grain officer.
As for Ji Fa, he was very smart. He didn't care about the fight between the two of them. Jiang Ziya was the one who took over the world. He couldn't do anything if he couldn't take it down.
He knew very well that he had been drawn into an unfathomable whirlpool, a whirlpool that could destroy him at any time.
"Prime Minister, we can borrow food from the rich families in the city.”San Yisheng suggested.
"No, Xi Qi has been besieged for more than two months. At this time, the people's hearts are already very unstable. If we borrow grain again, I'm afraid it will cause unrest among the people.”
Jiang Ziya rejected San Yisheng's suggestion.
Another seven or eight days passed like this. Jiang Ziya was getting angrier and angrier by the day. He thought to himself that he could do anything but take on such a fatal task. The key was that he could not quit, or else his master would probably arrange him clearly.
"Prime Minister, there are two Dao children outside who want to see you.”Just as Jiang Ziya was feeling anxious, a guard suddenly came to report.
Jiang Ziya's eyes lit up.""Quickly let them in."
"Greetings, Uncle-Master." The two Taoist children came in and bowed to Jiang Ziya.
"You are?" Jiang Ziya was puzzled.
"We are from the Jade House Cave of Golden Top Mountain. My name is Han Dulong, and this is my junior brother Xue Ehu.”
Han Dulong took out a bowl-sized bucket from the leopard skin bag and filled it with rice.
The generals around him couldn't help but laugh, wondering what they could do with so little food.
However, Jiang Ziya quickly sent it to the three granaries. After half a day, the grain storage officer reported,""Sancang's punching bag is full of rice, it can't hold anymore.”
Only now did the generals realize that they had underestimated the two children.
With this, Xi Qi had enough food, so they were no longer flustered and continued to defend.
On the side of the business camp, Huang Feihu led his troops to report.
" Your Majesty, this general did not fail your mission. I have completely flattened the region of Marquis Dong Bo and is currently implementing the prefecture and county system. Logically speaking, this general should have returned long ago. However, there are always some remnants of evil at Marquis Dong Bo's side, so this general has been guarding there for a long time.”
In reality, with Qiong Xiao around, he had killed Jiang Wenhuan and the other party's general at the first possible moment. The 400,000 strong army without a leader could not organize any effective resistance at all, and they were killed and scattered in all directions.
"Ah, what are you eating?”
Qiong Xiao saw Yinshou and the others eating iced watermelons. These were also a batch of seeds that Emperor Yan had brought back. This time, Yinshou had specially asked someone to bring a large batch to reward the three armies.
"Iced watermelon, try it."
Yin Shou said as he handed a piece to Qiong Xiao.
"Huang Feihu, come and get it yourself. Do you want me to give it to you?”Yin Shou scolded jokingly.
Huang Feihu was also very thirsty, but Huang Xinyue was his sister. In the end, Huang Xinyue gave him a piece.
"Your Majesty, this melon is really delicious." Huang Feihu finished a large piece of watermelon in one bite and said,"
"There's still a lot of them behind us. Go get some and reward the army.”
Huang Feihu was overjoyed when he heard this. Although it was already autumn, the weather was still very hot. It was very tiring for the army to travel long distances with him.
"Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty."
Huang Feihu kowtowed and went to get the watermelons.
Another month passed like this, and it was already late autumn. The weather slowly turned cold, and Yin Shansui brought his army to meet up.
"Your Majesty, this is a great harvest.”Yin Shanshe said excitedly.
While he was talking, Bixiao took out a sachet and poured out a pile of jewelry that was as tall as a mountain.
"Did you conquer all those islands?”When Yin Shou saw these jewels, he immediately understood that Yin Suhai had conquered the islands of the South Sea.
There were only a few natives there, but they were extremely rich. How rich were they? These jewels, which were worth thousands of gold in the Central Plains, were everywhere in the Central Plains, and precious wood such as yellow rosewood was used to make the fire.
That place was a completely uncultivated treasure trove. Yin Shou did not expect Yin Suhai to rob it just like that.
However, Yin Shou knew very well that Yin Suhai did not manage to get the truly valuable things.
"Alright, let the army recuperate in Zhaoge. We don't need so many soldiers here.”
What Yinshou said was the truth. It was a complete waste to station so many troops here. They could not win, but they could not win.
To put it bluntly, it was just to boost his momentum.
Huang Feihu's army had already returned to Zhaoge to recuperate, leaving only Huang Feihu to stand guard.
Yin Shanshe left after receiving the order.
"I also secretly brought a lot of delicious food.”
After Yin Shansui left, Bixiao smiled and took out another sachet, pouring out all kinds of strange fruits. In an instant, Yin Shou, Qiongxiao, Bixiao, Daji, and Huang Xinyue ate heartily.
After another half a month, Wen Zhong also brought his army to join them. At the same time, Cloudsky also brought a pile of strange gems.
"Your Majesty, this general led the army to an area full of glaciers. There was no one there, so this general led the army to the west. I don't know where we went, but there were all these stones there.”
Wen Zhong pointed at the ruby and sapphire on the ground.
"Thank you for your hard work, Grand Preceptor. Let the soldiers go back to Zhaoge to recuperate.”
Yin Shou estimated that Wen Zhong had fought his way to the West, but he was still far away from the Western Religious Sect. The Untainted Land was boundless, but it didn't matter where he went. He didn't need to worry about it.
Now, Great Shang's luck had reached a peak. Yin Shou's strength was almost bursting out and he could break through to the Quasi-Sage Realm at any time.
Moreover, with the fragment of the Great Dao of Strength, even a peak Quasi-Sage might not be his match.
