Transmigration begins with archery training

"Tomorrow night."

King Qi looked at the contents of the secret letter and said, "Sima Yao said that if we are willing to accept him, he will come to join us at midnight in ten days. He only hopes that after the matter is settled, he can introduce his Sima family to the Shengyun Sect."

"It seems the white-robed man is truly no longer capable."

Zhang Jingwu said, "Otherwise, our important generals wouldn't have come to surrender!"

"This person..."

Zhou Rong examined the handwriting on the secret letter repeatedly, and said calmly, "Is it reliable?"

"It should be reliable!"

Zhang Jingwu emphasized: "The argument a few days ago was overheard by several of our spies. It is said that there was a fierce argument on the main ship of the central army, almost as if a fight was about to break out."

"Later, the punishment of being chained through the bone was witnessed by all the rebel soldiers. Under such circumstances, it was very possible that they would harbor resentment and defect to the enemy in anger."

"Yes."

Ling Qia, a martial arts practitioner from the Ling family, added, "This Sima Yao is not from Dongsheng Shenzhou, but comes from Tianshui Zhou, just like us. Psychologically speaking, he won't really consider himself a subject."

"If Chen Sanshi had really killed him, that would have been fine, but to hang him up like this and humiliate him like this, I'm afraid anyone would not have been able to bear it."

"Yes."

A cultivator from the Ascending Cloud Sect said, "Moreover, our recruitment of surrendered generals is also a signal. It might attract more people to surrender, and it's not impossible to win the great war without bloodshed."

"on the contrary.

"If we refuse, it may provoke the enemy's fighting spirit, causing them to fight like cornered beasts, and we will suffer unnecessary losses."

"Governor Zhou."

King Qi solemnly said, "I think there is nothing to hesitate about. We should accept Sima Yao's surrender, consolidate his troops on the same day, and then take advantage of the wind to crush the rebels!"

"..."

I saw.

Zhou Rong stared at the secret letter for a long time without speaking. After a dozen breaths, he suddenly sneered, as if he had figured something out.

This scene.

King Qi and the others looked at each other in bewilderment.

Why is Zhou Lang laughing?

"Does it mean you think this person shouldn't be taken in?"

"..."

"No!"

Zhou Rong slammed his hand on the table and stood up: "Let's arrange it as Your Highness says."

"Order Sima Yao to lead his troops to surrender under the cover of night at midnight ten days from now."

"Then my entire army will be mobilized to fight the enemy to the death!"

Ten days have passed.

Gone in a flash.

Midnight.

Calm and calm.

In the Xin Dynasty's water fortress, a troop quietly broke away from the main force under the cover of night and slowly sailed towards the Jiangnan navy!

On a Mongolian warship.

Sima Yao stood with his sword in hand, a stark contrast to his earlier shouting and arguing with the white-robed man. He stared at the water in front of him with a calm expression.

"Father!"

Sima Chi came to his side: "Everything is arranged. There are a total of 22,000 people, two large ships, and dozens of small and medium-sized warships. The generals and soldiers under his command are also acting according to orders."

"Ah."

Sima Yao said in a deep voice, "Tonight will be very dangerous. I can't take care of you. You'd better take care of yourselves."

"Father, rest assured, I will never be afraid of death, but..."

Sima Lan paused, then said with a puzzled look, "But do we really have to risk our lives for this person? Is it worth it?"

Whether something is worthwhile or not depends on the time.

Sima Yao said calmly, "For our clan's current situation, if we can get through tonight, we will usher in a real turning point."

Just as the father and son were talking.

On the river ahead, a small boat slowly approached, drawing near their fleet.

Under the cover of night, only a figure could be seen speaking in a restrained voice: "Are you General Sima Yao?!"

"Exactly!"

Sima Yao immediately said, "I am Sima Yao, leading my 20,000 troops to join Governor Zhou Rong!"

"It really is General Sima!"

As they drew closer, the firelight revealed the newcomer to be a robust, middle-aged general with a long beard. He bowed and said, "I am Zhang Jingwu, and I have been ordered to welcome General Sima. General Sima, please follow me. Governor Zhou has been waiting for you for some time."

The Jiangnan Navy.

In the darkness, giant ships were lined up, linked by iron chains, heavy and solemn, like ancient water monsters awakening from the past. Compared to them, any other creature seemed insignificant.

A "Flying Cloud" warship.

Commander-in-Chief Zhou Rong came to the cabin, stood on the deck with his hands behind his back, feeling the cold night wind, and suddenly asked, "General Nie, do you think we can defeat the enemy tonight?"

"I always felt that everything was going too smoothly."

Nie Yuan pretended to be deep in thought: "Of course, if Governor Zhou thinks there is no problem, then there is definitely no problem."

"Haha~"

Zhou Rong glanced at him: "So, General Nie feels something is amiss?"

"Yes."

Nie Yuan pondered deeply and said, "But I can't figure it out. Maybe I'm just overthinking it."

"..."

In the darkness, Zhou Rong's sharp gaze slowly moved away from Nie Yuan, while his hands, behind his back, held a jade thumb ring that he was ready to discard at any moment.

After half a cup of tea.

Zhang Jingwu's small boat led a Mengchong warship into view. Behind them were countless warships of various sizes and a large number of people.

"Governor Zhou, the person has arrived!"

Zhou Rong called out loudly, "Are you General Sima?"

"Exactly!"

Sima Yao clasped his hands and said, "I have come here tonight as requested by Governor Zhou. I hope Governor Zhou will accept me!"

"General Sima!"

Zhou Rong then asked, "The rebel court is in dire need of manpower right now, and the Guiyuan Sect will offer you decent treatment, so why do you insist on joining me?"

"Wasn't this matter clearly stated in the secret letter?"

Sima Yao said indignantly, "Chen Sanshi is jealous of talent and afraid that I will steal his credit. It's one thing that he doesn't use my plan, but he also hangs me up for three days as a warning. This is intolerable!"

"I have come to seek refuge with Governor Zhou today, and I have only two requests!"

"One is to be accepted by the 'Ascending Cloud Sect'."

"The other one is to personally chop off Chen Sanshi's dog head!"

"It makes sense!"

Zhou Rong forced a smile and said, "In that case, we will trouble General Sima and the rest of us to work together to annihilate the rebels!"

"Lord Zhou, please wait! I've got an idea!"

Nie Yuan suddenly whispered in his ear.

"Oh?"

Zhou Rong raised an eyebrow at him and said, "It seems that General Nie is not an incompetent man after all."

As he spoke, he quietly put the jade thumb ring back on, which he had originally intended to throw away.

"so……"

Third Senior Brother Nie Yuan suddenly realized, "Governor Zhou knew something was wrong all along, so why did he still..."

Zhou Rong said calmly, "General Nie will know at a glance."
