Jiang Ziya's Assistants
In this way, some unnecessary disputes were avoided.
The soldiers of the Yin Shang were as fierce as wolves and tigers, and incredibly brave.
No matter how well the soldiers of Xiqi trained, it was clear that they were no match for the soldiers of Yin Shang.
Therefore, he decided to take a different approach, clearing land to grow grain as a final reserve for the author before his expedition.
Although Xiqi was incredibly wealthy, it was no different from the Yin Shang at that time, and it could even be said that it had been surpassed by the Yin Shang.
The Yin Shang is now extremely wealthy.
It has reached a point where every household has surplus grain and spare money.
In particular, His Human Emperor inexplicably produced a large amount of grain.
The grains were produced in a very short period of time, yet the yields were exceptionally high.
It's completely incomparable to Xiqi.
Although Xiqi is very wealthy, with a century of accumulated wealth and countless riches, Xiqi area is actually quite small.
Overall, it was only one-eighth the size of the Shang Kingdom's territory.
Supporting the deployment of over six million soldiers was clearly very difficult.
Xiqi was wealthy, but its cultural foundation was shallow.
This is why he led many soldiers to cultivate the land.
Since the soldiers' elite status is no match for that of the Yin Shang, it's better to start cultivating the land in advance.
This will also help to build up the foundation for Xiqi.
In addition, he is waiting for his foreign aid.
His foreign aid team hasn't arrived yet.
If a few powerful immortal disciples were to arrive, he would have more confidence, and at that time he could easily break through the five major passes of the Yin Shang.
If we can successfully storm Chaoge, then this matter will have great potential.
Jiang Ziya was handling military affairs in the main camp when he heard someone come to report that someone outside was requesting an audience.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ziya immediately became interested. Could he be a person of the Immortal Dao?
Was it his senior brother? Or someone else?
"Who exactly is this person? Did they introduce themselves?"
Jiang Ziya looked at the messenger and asked him questions carefully.
"Reporting to Grand Duke Jiang, the person outside looks rather strange, and says his name is Wei Hu, and that he is Grand Duke Jiang's grand-nephew."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ziya was extremely excited.
The first person to descend the mountain was Wei Hu, a disciple of Dao De Tianzun, one of the Twelve Golden Immortals.
Although his magical power was average, he possessed an extremely powerful magical artifact called the Demon -Demon-Subduing Vajra.
It is said that it is as light as a feather when held in the hand, but when it strikes an enemy, it will exert pressure equivalent to a thousand mountains and a hundred peaks, which is enough to show how powerful this magical weapon is.
Now that this fellow has arrived, he is naturally a powerful ally for Jiang Ziya.
"That is indeed my junior apprentice! Quickly, invite him in! Quickly, invite him in! You must not be negligent!"
Jiang Ziya was naturally somewhat excited.
Although he was Wei Hu's senior uncle in terms of status, Jiang Ziya was no stronger than his junior nephew in terms of supernatural powers.
The arrival of such a powerful expert was naturally a joyous occasion for Jiang Ziya.
Not long after, a young man arrived.
The young man walked with a powerful stride, had a somewhat strange appearance, was extremely tall, and had very thick arms, like those of a Qilin (a mythical creature). He carried a strangely shaped Demon-Subduing Vajra (a magical pestle) on his back, had dark skin, and was slightly ugly.
It looks exactly like a dark iron tower.
Although this person was not good-looking, he walked with a powerful and vigorous gait, and soon arrived in front of Jiang Ziya.
"Wei Hu greets his martial uncle!"
Looking at the towering young man, Jiang Ziya felt extremely gratified.
"It's good that you're here, it's good that you're here."
Jiang Ziya smiled slightly, clearly quite fond of the young man before him.
"Uncle-Master, Master has ordered me to descend the mountain and stay by your side to assist you in accomplishing your great mission."
"He also asked his disciple to pass on a message, saying that he would personally go down the mountain to assist his master in a few days."
Hearing this, Jiang Ziya was overjoyed.
The Dao De Tianzun is a powerful being of the Daluo Golden Immortal level, a renowned figure throughout the entire Primordial World. If he could come, that would be the best outcome.
"By the way, did your master give you any other instructions before you left the mountain?"
Jiang Ziya was slightly puzzled.
Because the Dao De Tianzun possessed a magical treasure that he desperately needed, he sent someone to deliver the message to the Dao De Tianzun well in advance.
But why didn't he bring what he needed?
Upon hearing Jiang Ziya's question, Wei Hu chuckled.
"Uncle-Master, there's no need to worry. My master already knows."
"My two senior brothers will naturally come then. You might think they've already gone back to the mountain to retrieve the magic treasure, but perhaps they'll take a little longer."
"Uncle-Master, please don't worry anymore."
Upon hearing these words, Jiang Ziya was naturally overjoyed.
It seems that not only have three junior disciples come to help, but the magical treasure she has been longing for is also coming.
Once that magical artifact arrives, he will have no more worries.
"Nephew, do you know what magical treasure your two senior brothers went to retrieve?"
Upon hearing Jiang Ziya's question, Wei Hu chuckled, appearing somewhat simple-minded.
"Reporting to Martial Uncle, the magical artifact that my two senior brothers retrieved is precisely the Grain-Holding Rice Measure you needed."
Really.
That's exactly what he's missing.
With this magical artifact in hand, great things can be accomplished.
"Well----------"
Jiang Ziya's joy.
Xiqi itself is a small territory with many mountains.
Although food supplies are relatively abundant, every bit used is a bit less.
In addition, the area around Xiqi is covered with mountains, making it extremely difficult for people to travel east out of the Mount Qi, and transporting grain and supplies would be incredibly difficult.
With this magical artifact, the problem of food supplies was finally solved.
That very evening, Jiang Ziya hosted a grand celebratory banquet for Wei Hu.
Wei Hu had drunk himself into a stupor long ago.
Over the years, he has been following his master in arduous cultivation in the mountains, and has never enjoyed any so-called wealth and glory.
Now, on this first trip down the mountain, he seems to have let himself go a bit.
The next day...
Wei Hu's two senior brothers, Han Dulong and Xue Ehu, indeed arrived.
Jiang Ziya looked up.
However, they discovered that both of them were tall and ugly.
His full beard gave him a fierce and menacing look, making him appear extremely menacing.
Seeing this, Jiang Ziya couldn't help but feel delighted.
The more ruthless these two are, the more likely they are to possess extraordinary abilities.
"Han Dulong and Xue Ehu pay their respects to their martial uncle!"
Upon seeing Jiang Ziya, the two men naturally bowed down.
The old man before them was no ordinary person; he was the first disciple of Yuanshi Tianzun, the Great Heavenly Venerable Yuanshi Tianzun of the Chan Sect.
In terms of status, he was their senior uncle, and of the same generation as their master.
Faced with such a being, one would naturally be extremely respectful and courteous.
Jiang Ziya chuckled, his expression one of great satisfaction, and stepped forward to help the two of them up.
"My two junior disciples have come from afar; you must be tired."
"Did you two bring the Grain-Holding Rice Measure?"
"Xiqi is currently lacking this magical treasure. Obtaining it would be like adding wings to a tiger."
Upon hearing this, the two chuckled and quickly took out a small object from their pockets, handing it to Jiang Ziya.
Jiang Ziya took it and looked at it.
It was indeed a rice container the size of a palm.
The rice container was square, neither too big nor too small, just the size of a palm.
It has a wide mouth and a narrow base, resembling an ordinary bowl.
It didn't seem to have any special function, but Jiang Ziya was indeed very happy to see this magic weapon.
This magical artifact is extremely powerful.
"You three junior disciples, immediately follow me back to Xiqi and together we will pay our respects to the great sage of Xiqi, Marquis Ji Chang of the West!"
Upon hearing this, the three of them naturally dared not be negligent.
He then immediately followed Jiang Ziya back to Xiqi.
