Xu Ji quietly returned to his residence, listening to the snoring louder than the wind outside, unable to sleep any longer, lying there, wrestling with thousands of thoughts.

What really convinced him was not those words, but Wang Dian himself, Wang Dian has always regarded himself as a strategist, under the command of "King Wu", he was decent, there was no special performance, after experiencing a life and death crisis and switching to the Hundred Eyes Heavenly King, he was able to offer a very good strategy.

There is also the Golden Holy Maiden, during the period of Xu Ji's retirement, she doesn't know how many things she has experienced, in the rumors, her strength has been weakening, even if Cao Shenxi helps, can she really be the opponent of the outer departments? It would be a costly and feeble battle, and it would do little to help the Descendants, who desperately needed a foothold.

After thinking about others, Xu Ji thought of himself again, he said that he needed ten days to think about it, it was just an excuse, he didn't have ten days, all the extra time belonged to the Hundred Eyes Heavenly King, and the longer it dragged on, the more unfavorable it would be for him and the Gong army.

Nine times out of ten, the envoy of the Hundred Eyes Heavenly King is persuading the leaders in the city to hand over the grain, and even Xu Ji is occasionally moved, how long can Qiu Wuye and the others last?

"He's not just a hundred eyes, he's a hundred faces." Xu Ji muttered, it was all the same for him, he could see through Xu Dashi's nature, and the two things of Mu Tianzi being killed and setting up a new heavenly king alone were enough to prove that this was not a "true hero".

But Wang Dian couldn't see it, and Xu Ji couldn't let Wang Dian see it clearly.

"Maybe I'm wrong." Xu Ji whispered, he has made a lot of mistakes, the most recent one is to look at the Hanzhou Descendant Army, thinking that they all have no long-term plans, just blindly looking for grain, grabbing grain, and accumulating grain, and the Hundred Eyes Heavenly King gave him an accident.

At dawn, the soldiers got up one after another, and went out to relieve their hands, and after Zhang Leader came back, he walked to the front of the shop to check, and saw Xu Ji open his eyes, and said with a smile: "Mr. Xu drank a lot of wine last night." ”

"Well, my head still hurts."

"I'd like to have a headache after drinking." Leader Zhang swallowed his saliva, didn't dare to think about it, sat down opposite, and said with a smile: "We're done chatting, do you want Mr. Xu to listen to it?" ”

"What? Oh. Xu Ji turned over and sat up, "I'm waiting." ”

Zhang Tou could not write, and he did not have pen and paper in his hand, but he had his own method of taking notes, and his left hand gently pinched the knuckles of the five fingers of his right hand in order, and each section represented an event.

"In the camp of the Hundred Eyes Heavenly King, each person increases the millet by two taels a day, tsk, it is really generous, two taels of dry millet, when cooked, it is almost four taels, and after making porridge, it will be able to feed a half-sized child. Originally, it was rumored that the Hundred Eyes Heavenly King was short of food, but this time everyone was relieved. ”

"The Bitter Extermination Heavenly King is dead, his wife is making trouble, he doesn't dare to come to make trouble with the Hundred Eyes Heavenly King, and she has been messing with her brother-in-law Mu Jian, for three nights in a row, Mu Jian has been living here, and he doesn't dare to go back to his camp."

"Venerable Feilong has a daughter, who is over twenty years old and has not yet married, since her father released a word, saying that it was to use Baihu grain as a dowry, everyone is about to go crazy, it is said that even Yan Xiaoguo also sent someone to ask for marriage, saying that his wife is seriously ill and will die soon."

……

The more trivial things became, the more trivial the matter became, and the leader Zhang pulled his knuckles twice and four knots, and finally finished saying them all, "That's all, there are a few more things, I think it's too small, so I won't talk about it." ”

Xu Ji smiled and nodded, these things didn't help him much, but they made him know more about the Descendant Army.

In the army of the incarnation, there were two meals a day, breakfast was held late, and only three poles in the morning were brought raw millet, firewood and salt, which were distributed according to the head, not at all, and as for the side dishes, it was a few pieces of slightly stinky pickled cabbage.

The soldiers were very skilled, lighting a fire outside the tent and borrowing it from acquaintances.

Leader Zhang was quite disappointed, "I thought that the Hundred Eyes Heavenly King would treat the guests more preferentially, why are these things still these things?" Can we settle, isn't Mr. Xu a military advisor? Or will there be another meal to be delivered later? ”

Until the raw millet was cooked and the rice was ripe, and no other food was delivered, Leader Zhang sent the first bowl to Xu Ji, "No way, Mr. Xu has to settle it." ”

"I'm also a man who is used to eating food in the army." Xu Ji smiled and ate a bowl cleanly.

A soldier saw it in his eyes and said with a smile: "It's a shame that Mr. Xu can eat it, if I enjoyed wine and meat last night and didn't eat rice millet for three days, I just want to keep the smell of wine." ”

Everyone laughed and revealed to each other, pointing out how much each other had eaten and how embarrassed they were when they got drunk last time.

Listening to their conversation, the last time they got drunk was three months ago, before they left Hanju.

"Would you like to go back to Hanzhou?" Xu Ji asked.

"Of course I do." Everyone spoke in unison, and then sighed continuously, "If I could go back, I wouldn't have come out in the first place." "But no, the officers and soldiers are too fierce to fight."

"If the new Mushou of Hanzhou is really a hindrance, I may be able to speak." Xu Ji lied halfway, he could indeed talk to Lou Yan, but the other party would definitely not listen.

Leader Zhang had no doubts, and asked with great interest: "I heard from the people of the old army that Mr. Xu was originally surnamed Lou and was the son of the general?" ”

"Well, the general has many sons, and I am one of them."

The soldiers exclaimed in unison, and when they looked at Xu Ji again, even their expressions changed slightly, in their eyes, the identity of "the son of the great general" was much more noble than the "temporary big leader" and the inexplicable "King Wu".

"Then the Hanzhou Mu Shou Lou is also the son of the general?"

"He does six, I do seventeen."

"Brother?"

"Half-sibling."

"This is my brother." Boss Zhang smiled.

"But there are rumors, the shepherd of Hanzhou may not be the obstacle, with his qualifications, it seems that he is too fast to be a shepherd."

"That was in the past, and now even a mud-legged man can be called a king, let alone the son of a general?" Leader Zhang and the others were excited, "If Mu Shou is really an obstacle, can Mr. Xu let him give the Descendant Army a place to stay?" ”

"It's hard to say, although Lou Yan and I are brothers, we have very little contact, and he may not know me."

"Brother, how can you not recognize it?" Boss Zhang smiled, he couldn't imagine how many concubines and descendants the general had, "This is a good thing." ”

"It's not up to us to decide whether to return to Hanzhou or not, even if I recognize the Hanzhou shepherd, it's useless." Xu Ji said with a smile.

Everyone nodded, but they were all clearly moved.

"Do you want us to talk?" Boss Zhang asked.

"Feel free to do so, I guess everyone has nothing to do today, I want to make up for it again."

Leader Zhang immediately ordered his soldiers to withdraw from the tent and make room for the "general's son".

Xu Ji slept again.

The meal in the afternoon was exactly the same as breakfast, and the "military advisor" who was ceremoniously introduced by the Hundred Eyes Heavenly King last night was mixed up with the soldiers today.

After eating, there was still a long time before dark, and everyone did not dare to run around, for fear of consuming physical strength, and they were even hungrier at night.

Zhang Toutou and others spread the true identity of Xu Junshi everywhere, and many people did not believe it, until the old army soldiers came forward to testify, and they were not taken seriously.

When Xu Ji was called to see the Hundred Eyes Heavenly King, there were many searching eyes on the road, but that's all, no one would suddenly want to go back to Hanzhou to face the encirclement and suppression of officers and soldiers just because of a descendant of the Lou family.

There was no banquet in the tent, and the Hundred Eyes Heavenly King was chatting and laughing with several people, but Wang Dian was not there, and because of his appearance, this strategist rarely appeared in public.

Seeing one of the guests, Xu Ji couldn't help but sigh.

Qiu Wuye sat on the right hand side of the Hundred Eyes Heavenly King, smiling very happily, like a rejuvenation, but the wrinkles on his face could not go anywhere, and like a vendor who had just made a big deal, eager to offer the guests.

Xu Ji guessed that the leader of the Gong Army would be persuaded, but he didn't expect it to be so soon, and he didn't expect it to be Qiu Wuye, he only lasted one day.

Seeing Xu Ji coming in, the Hundred Eyes Heavenly King beckoned and smiled: "Come on, military advisor, meet our Shenchi Heavenly King Qiu Xuqiu Fifth Master." ”

The name "Void" is obviously new, Xu Ji stepped forward and said with a smile: "Congratulations to the Shenchi Heavenly King, why don't you use the name of 'Shenxing'?" ”

Qiu Wuye's face was slightly red and he didn't answer.

Xu Dashi said regretfully: "Everyone has discussed, the title of the Divine Heavenly King should belong to Brother Gong alone, and no one else should be established." ”

"Brother Gong has been pushing the title of the King of Heaven since his death." Xu Ji said with a smile.

"That's Brother Gong's humility, especially admirable, in short, there is only one Shenxing Heavenly King, there will be no second one, from today onwards, Fifth Master Qiu is the Shenchi Heavenly King, commanding all of Brother Gong's subordinates."

Xu Ji said "congratulations" again.

Xu Dashi said to Du Heimao and Qiu Wuye: "The deceased has passed away, the living are still alive, today the two of you will resolve their grievances in front of me, and they will get along with each other as brothers in the future, and they will never have any more incidents." ”

Du Heimao said angrily: "The previous thing was a misunderstanding, where did the grievances come from?" From now on, the fifth master ...... No, no, the Shenchi Heavenly King is my elder, I call the Heavenly King in my mouth, and I call my uncle in my heart, I hope that the Shenchi Heavenly King will not think I am ugly and stupid......"

Fifth Master Qiu also said: "That's right, where did the grievances come from?" Everyone is originally brothers, and the king of heaven can't be called uncle in his heart, the generations are messed up, no matter how old or young, they are all brothers! ”

Everyone got up and laughed in unison, and Xu Dashi said: "Shenchi Heavenly King, explain it to my new military advisor, lest he think that he has been deceived." ”

Fifth Master Qiu was slightly embarrassed when he faced Xu Ji, "That...... The Hundred Eyes Heavenly King sent someone to make it clear to me, it turned out that he was going to gather the army of all roads to attack Liangzhou together, and he had already made a good start with the help of the Qiang soldiers. Our grain is only borrowed, and it will be repaid by next autumn. ”

"Double the repayment." Xu Dashi said.

Qiu Wuye smiled again, "It's good to come back, I have an explanation for my subordinates, and there is no need to double it......"

"It has to be doubled." Xu Dashi said, "Shenchi Heavenly King saved the whole army in danger today, doubling the food is what we should do, in addition, the first three cities captured by the Descendant Army in Liangzhou were all searched by Shenchi Heavenly King for three days. ”

Qiu Wuye's mouth smiled together, searching the city means that he will get benefits first, which is enough to make up for the loss of borrowed food.

Xu Ji could only say "congratulations".

Xu Dashi sent several Heavenly Kings out of the tent, turned back, and said with a smile: "The military advisor still doesn't know enough about the Descending Army." ”

"When is the Hundred Eyes Heavenly King going to do it?"

"What hands?"

"The Hundred Eyes Heavenly King will not take a group of 'benefactors' to attack Liangzhou."

"Haha, the military advisor knows me better. Well, when the grain is brought back from the plank road, I will send troops to attack the city - the grain must be taken back, and it will only taste good when it is eaten. But I won't kill them all, as long as they are willing to surrender, they can follow me to attack Liangzhou. As for Fifth Master Qiu, being the King of Shenchi for a few days is enough, and I will leave this title to him all the time. ”

"I'm sure I'm useless." Xu Jidao.

"Ten days, Wang Dian wants to repay you, I will give him 'ten days', after that-" Xu Dashi frowned, "Look at my mood, I really like your pair of eyeballs." ”
