Chapter 122: Food was stolen
Li Le only had an expectation in his heart, expecting that this time it would not only be Jiang Yuge and Qingtong who would come, but also the teachers behind them.
In this way, Yuzhou City’s chances of winning are much greater.
Unfortunately, Li Le was disappointed. Only Jiang Yuge and Qingtong came this time. None of their teachers came.
Jiang Yuge said, "We are here to..." He exchanged glances with Qingtong before saying, "To learn."
Li Lezhi: “…”
Come to the battlefield to study?
Li Le's mind was full of question marks, but facing this kind of thing, he could only remain silent. Maybe this matter was said by the opponent's division commander, who deliberately asked them to come to the battlefield to see it for themselves as a practice.
Although it sounds unsafe, it is possible that this is the other party's educational philosophy. Besides, he, a small Taoist priest, has no right to reject it.
However, he really wanted to ask, the situation in Yuzhou City was dangerous, there was no movement in the capital, and when would the Taoist priest from Xuanyang Palace arrive?
Li Le just didn't believe that such an unreliable thing would happen. It was impossible for the whole family to place their hopes on him and believe that he could outsmart the other party.
He asked tentatively, "Are there only two of you coming this time?"
Jiang Yuge nodded.
He couldn't help but think of what Senior Li meant. According to General Xiao, Senior Li wanted to invite the Taoist priest from Xuanyang Palace. It just so happened that they came from Xuanyang Palace and were sent to Yuzhou City by their teacher, so he gave them the opportunity to study with Senior Li.
Could it be that what the senior meant was not enough? www.jiangnanxs.com Jiangnan Literature Network
Do we want more Taoists to come and observe and learn?
Should he send a pigeon to invite his senior brother from Xuanyang Palace to come?
Jiang Yuge was in a dilemma. In order to avoid him from thinking too much, he observed Senior Li's expression before saying, "Master Li wants to invite the senior brothers from Xuanyang Palace to come?"
"...No," Li Le just said no reflexively. After he realized that he had said no, he did not change his words. It might not be feasible to ask the senior brothers from Xuanyang Palace to come for this matter. It would be safer to ask Senior Xuanyangzi to come.
But it is obvious that Xiao Xuan cannot invite Senior Xuan Yangzi. The only one who can move Senior Xuan Yangzi is the emperor.
The emperor is not in a hurry... He is not in a hurry either...
Li Le just felt relieved. Anyway, the emperor was not so foolish as to want to break Yuzhou City. When they could no longer hold on and could not win the battle, he would definitely send people here.
At the same time, the priests from Zhao State had also arrived outside Yuzhou City and arrived at Zhao State's camp.
After receiving the news, General Di went out to greet them immediately. When he saw a simple carriage parked outside the tent, the servant driving the carriage lifted the curtain, and a young man in a white robe walked out from inside. General Di smiled.
When he saw the face of the person getting off the car clearly, the corners of his mouth raised and his smile deepened. The person who came was actually the youngest and most talented priest of their Zhao Kingdom - Qu Lingxian.
General Di went up to him and said, "Priest Qu, I have been waiting for you for a long time. Would you like to rest for a night first?"
Qu Lingxian said gently, "No need, General Di, please tell me about the situation in Yuzhou first, so that I can ask Ling."
"Okay, okay," General Di said three times in a row, led the way, and turned back to compliment Qu Lingxian.
"Priest Qu, with you here this time, they in Yuzhou will be powerless to recover.?($?)_[(w.)]??Come?$??$?Read the latest chapter$?Full chapter?(w)?"
Qu Lingxian curved her eyebrows and smiled gently, but did not respond.
After he learned about the situation in Yuzhou from General Di, and that General Di's defeat was due to the divination by the Taoist priest from Daliang, Qu Lingxian frowned and asked, "General Di knew that the Taoist priest had bad intentions, so how could he keep him in the army?"
"Hey, (w)?"
General Di sighed and said, "I can't drive that Taoist priest away. He was arranged by His Highness. I don't know what kind of magic potion that Taoist priest gave His Highness to make His Highness trust him so much that he even sent him to do such an important thing. (w)?"
"I see."
Upon learning that it was someone arranged by His Highness, Qu Lingxian did not continue asking. He just told General Di that he wanted to ask the spirit, and then drove the person out.
When the Zhao Kingdom priests ask spirits for advice, they must first use cinnabar to conclude a contract with the spirit, and only then can they sense the result from the spirit.
Qu Lingxian's spirit was a peach branch he carried with him. He put the peach branch down carefully, and then prepared cinnabar and special paper. After drawing the shape of the peach branch on the paper, he asked himself whether he could win the battle, but the result he got was vague.
This was the first time that Qu Lingxian encountered such a thing, so he had to wait for a while and ask again in his heart. After a long time, when Qu Lingxian thought he couldn't ask the question today, Ling told him the answer.
--defeat.
In this way, Qu Lingxian's outstretched hand stopped in mid-air, and she raised her eyelids slightly to look outside the tent, as if looking in the direction of Yuzhou City.
He could never have imagined that he would lose this battle.
If he hadn't come here, it would be natural for him to lose the battle. Could it be that he calculated it?
As soon as the doubts in Qu Lingxian's heart emerged, he was suppressed by him. He suspected that the result of asking the spirits was not caused by their priests.
Could it be that Xuan Yangzi from Zhao State came to Yuzhou City?
Otherwise, Zhao State would not have been defeated.
Although Qu Lingxian suspected that it was Xuan Yangzi, he didn't think that Zhao Kingdom would be defeated if Xuan Yangzi came. He believed that he was no worse than Xuan Yangzi.
In order to find out why Zhao State was defeated, Qu Lingxian asked Ling again who caused Zhao State to be defeated.
This time Ling was silent for longer.
Finally, when Qu Lingxian thought there would be no result, Ling told him three words - Li Lezhi.
Qu Lingxian wrote the name on the paper.
Looking at the bright red name, Qu Lingxian couldn't believe that it was this person who caused the defeat of Zhao State. He had never heard of this name.
Are there such people in Daliang?
Qu Lingxian frowned. Zhaoguo didn't receive any news about such important news. Could it be that all the spies buried in Daliang were dead?
Qu Lingxian handed the calculations to General Di and said solemnly: "If this man is not killed, there will be endless troubles. General, you should find him and kill him as soon as possible."
General Di looked at the words on the paper, then looked at Qu Lingxian, and asked innocently, "Priest Qu, how do we kill this man?"
Qu Lingxian took a glance.
General Di said quickly: "What I mean is, where is this man now, so I can send someone to kill him."
"...Daliang," Qu Lingxian uttered two words. Seeing that General Di didn't understand what he meant, Qu Lingxian didn't know how this person got this seat. He said, "Send someone to Daliang to find him. If you don't have the ability, you can ask His Highness to do it. Secondly,

This person must be in Yuzhou City (w)?

As long as he dies (w)?,
Yuzhou City cannot stop the cavalry of Zhao State."
General Di understood.
From Qu Lingxian, General Di learned that Li Lezhi was the key to the war and was still in Yuzhou City. He was always thinking about taking Li Lezhi's life.
However, Yuzhou City is an iron wall. It is not easy for them to arrange people to go in and assassinate him. It will also take a lot of time to consult His Highness on this matter.
Before that, we can't kill the enemy with one blow, so we can only alert the enemy.
General Di had no choice but to ask His Highness for instructions. When Prince Yin learned about this, he immediately mobilized the secret agents he had buried in Daliang.
This secret agent was still done through the hands of Prince An, but if this secret agent could be used to exchange for Li Lezhi's life, it would be a profitable deal.
Before this, he had already known that Li Lezhi would eventually become a stumbling block in his annexation of Daliang, but he did not expect that this day would come so soon. That Li Lezhi, Taoist Li, was growing too fast. He originally thought that it would take him another five or ten years to become independent.
Unexpectedly, after only not seeing each other for a month or so, the other party has grown into someone who can influence the situation.
If this person doesn't die, he will eventually be a trouble.
At this moment, Prince Yin and Qu Lingxian both put him on the first list of people to be eliminated.
And Yuzhou.
The reinforcements sent by Emperor Zhao have arrived, and along with them came the grain transport officers who came to deliver food and fodder. Li Lezhi happened to see them, and after taking a look at the transported food, he looked away to the other side.
For some reason, when he went out this morning, his right eyelid kept twitching, as if something bad was going to happen. Li Le had no way of ignoring it.
Especially my right eyelid kept twitching.
If the left eye twitches, it means good fortune; if the right eye twitches, it means disaster.
We still have to believe in the old saying.
The situation has been calm recently, and Zhao State has not attacked Yuzhou City for several days. Could it be that the right eyelid is hinting that Zhao State will attack today?
Li Le just calculated the fortune secretly.
But what I expected was not the case. Zhao State would not attack today. So, what would happen?
Li Lezhi was just lost in thought when he suddenly heard a loud noise behind him. He turned around and saw that the grain bags had fallen off the truck.
Li Lezhi was about to go over to help when he heard Jiang Yuge's voice from behind. Jiang Yuge shouted, "Master Li, General Xiao wants to see you."
Li Le just turned around and said, "I'll be there right away."
Taking one last look at the grain bag and seeing it being lifted up and put onto the cart, Li Le felt relieved and walked towards where Xiao Xuan lived.
Jiang Yuge also followed behind him.
This time, Xiao Xuan invited Li Lezhi to come because he wanted to know what was happening in Zhao State. For several days, there was no movement in Zhao State and the scouts did not return with any news.
This made Xiao Xuan feel a little uneasy. The more peaceful Zhao State was, the more alert they had to be. They could not relax for even a moment.
"Master Li, you are here," Xiao Xuan said after seeing Li Lezhi, then lowered his eyes to look at the sand table, which showed the current situation of Yuzhou City and Zhaoguo Camp.
Li Le only saw this scene and knew what Xiao Xuan was worried about. He said, "Zhao Kingdom will not attack today."
Because of the arrival of the Zhao State priest and Xiao Xuan's multiple ambushes, the Zhao State's reinforcements had not yet been dispatched, and there were still 300,000 troops waiting outside Yuzhou City.
But there are so many people in Zhao State, and their food and grass have been destroyed by Xiao Xuan once. Where will the other side's food and grass come from?
As soon as this thought came to Li Lezhi's mind, he combined it with the incident of his right eyelid twitching and silently calculated it. After this calculation, Li Lezhi almost cried out in surprise.
With his brows furrowed, he looked at Xiao Xuan's face, put his hands behind his back, and said in a complicated tone: "Our food and grass have been stolen."
"What?" Xiao Xuan hadn't reacted yet.
Jiang Yuge also stood there in a daze.
The two men seemed not to hear what Li Le said, or seemed to be stunned by what he said. Li Le saw that the two men were silent, and repeated in a low voice: "Our food has been replaced, and the food is still there, in the post station ten miles outside the city."
