Chapter 828 The situation changes rapidly, Li plots against Zhu Rong!
His trip to Quezhou was undoubtedly a chess piece thrown out by Xuanyuan Po to test the strength of the Jiuxiao Army, and it was also a form of exclusion and weakening of himself.

Therefore, Li Mi, who had to agree under duress, felt somewhat unwilling.

Then Li Mi suddenly had an idea and thought of what he had heard before. Recently, Xuanyuan Po seemed to have used Xuanming's identity to recruit a new god of war - Zhurong - in the southern barbarian land!
I heard that this new general under Xuanyuan Po was extremely powerful. After competing with Xuanyuan Po and the two generals Xuanming and Huangmei under the rebel king's army, I heard that he was actually stronger than them.

This immediately made Li Mi's heart move. He turned his eyes and made up his mind.

"Leader Xuanyuan, although I am willing to accept your order, I have some soldiers under my command, but I am extremely short of talented generals. Facing Xiang Yu's Chu Army or the elite troops of the Jiuxiao Army, I am afraid I will not be able to do it."

"Xiang Yu is brave, and the Jiuxiao Army is unstoppable. The journey to Quezhou is extremely dangerous. Without a capable assistant, I am afraid that I will not be able to take on this important task."

Li Mi raised his head slightly and looked at Xuanyuan Po above him, then he sighed deliberately and spoke slowly with a hint of bitterness in his voice.

"Brother Li, you are too modest. Wagangzhai has produced so many heroes, how could there be no generals available?"

Upon hearing this, Xuanyuan Po raised a faint smile. Li Mi had indeed started to bargain, but his face remained expressionless and he just asked indifferently.

He knew that Li Mi was just playing the victim in order to gain more support and resources.

"Leader Xuanyuan, you may not know that although I have several generals under my command, it is difficult to win against Xiang Yu and the Jiuxiao Army."

"Li is so bold as to ask for help from Xuanyuan Alliance Leader."

Li Mi cursed in his heart, but had to continue acting.

"Oh? What do you think, Brother Li?"

Xuanyuan Po was startled but pretended to remain calm.

"I recently heard that a new member of General Xuanming's clan has joined the Xuanyuan Alliance. His name is Zhurong and he is extremely powerful. I admire him very much. If I can get his help, this trip will be twice as effective with half the effort."

"I would like to ask Xuanyuan Alliance Leader to send General Zhurong to my army to help me."

This was exactly what Li Mi was waiting for. A smile flashed across his eyes, which had originally been a little gloomy. He then pretended to be in deep thought for a moment, took a deep breath, and spoke slowly.

As soon as these words were spoken, the tent suddenly became quiet, and everyone's eyes were focused on Xuanyuan Po.

Xuanyuan Po was furious, and then a gloomy look flashed in his eyes.

Zhu Rong was a powerful general he had recruited from a large tribe in the southern barbarian land through the identity of Xuanming. He originally intended to use him as a secret weapon and trump card at a critical moment.

However, he didn't expect that Li Mi would find out about it so quickly, and even openly made demands to pry him away!
"Now, the thirty-six rebel kings are fighting fiercely with Yang Jian in the Great Xuan Dynasty. Zhu Rong is a capable general under my command. I need him right now. How can I let him go so easily?"

But Xuanyuan Po was a powerful leader after all, and was extremely cunning. He did not attack immediately, but just looked at Li Mi coldly and said in a deep voice.

"Alliance leader, this trip is of great importance. If Li is defeated, not only will the thirty-six rebel kings lose face, but Xiang Yu and the Jiuxiao Army may also take advantage of the opportunity to expand."

"I, Li, dare to ask the leader to put the overall situation first and temporarily lend General Zhu Rong to me. When I return triumphantly, I will return the jade intact to Zhao."

Li Mi had expected Xuanyuan Po to say this, he was prepared and immediately responded.

As he spoke, Li Mi deliberately played the victim several times, vividly describing his difficult situation of having no generals under his command and being alone in deep territory, as if he was going there in mortal danger and would not be able to survive without Zhu Rong's help.

Xuanyuan Po cursed in his heart, but he also understood that he had forced Li Mi to go to Quezhou, and now he was suffering.

If he rejected Li Mi's request at this moment, it would probably make other rebel kings suspicious and think that Xuanyuan Po was narrow-minded and unwilling to consider the overall situation.

"Brother Li, you are wrong. General Zhu Rong is a capable general under my command. How can he be easily transferred?"

"However, Brother Li's trip is of great importance, and I cannot just sit back and watch."

"How about this, I send another general to help you?" Xuanyuan Po pondered for a moment and said slowly.

"Leader Xuanyuan, I am not an ungrateful person. It's just that I and General Zhurong hit it off right away and felt quite compatible."

"If I can get the help of General Zhu Rong, I will surely succeed immediately and live up to the trust of Xuanyuan Alliance Leader."

Li Mi's lips moved slightly, but he pretended to be embarrassed.

Upon hearing this, Xuanyuan Po became even angrier. Didn't he know that Li Mi was deliberately taking revenge on him?

"Brother Li, General Zhu Rong is indeed an important person under my command, and it is difficult to transfer him away easily."

"If you have other requests, I will try my best to satisfy you."

However, he couldn't get angry and could only suppress his anger and said in a deep voice.

Seeing this, Li Mi knew that Xuanyuan Po had become somewhat shaken, and he was even more delighted.

This is a war god who is more powerful than Xuanming and Huangmei, who are among the best among the thirty-six rebel kings.

If I could join his army and go to the Dayong Dynasty with him, then we would be together day and night, and I would be able to decide what to do.

After all, Xuanyuan Po had just recruited Zhu Rong not long ago. If he could swing the hoe quickly, he might have a chance!

Thinking of this, Li Mi felt even more excited!
"Leader Xuanyuan, Li is not a person who makes trouble without reason."

"However, this journey is extremely dangerous. Without the help of a capable general, I really cannot have confidence."

"I hope that Lord Xuanyuan will understand Li's difficulties."

So after Xuanyuan Po hesitated, Li Mi immediately followed up the conversation and continued to speak in an embarrassed tone.

Xuanyuan Po's face was as gloomy as water. If this matter could not be properly resolved at this moment, it would probably cause dissatisfaction and suspicion from other rebel kings.

"Brother Li, I know your journey will be difficult."

"Well, I promise you, once General Zhu Rong has finished his work, I will send him to help you, how about that?"

He took a deep breath and spoke slowly.

"Does Alliance Leader Xuanyuan really mean what he said?"

When Li Mi heard this, he was delighted but pretended to be calm.

"How can I, Xuanyuan Po, go without worrying about the consequences? General Zhurong will be here soon."

Xuanyuan Po snorted coldly and said in a deep voice.

"Thank you, Xuanyuan Alliance Leader, for your help. I will do my best to live up to your trust."

Seeing this, Li Mi knew that he had achieved his goal. He was secretly delighted and quickly bowed and said.

Xuanyuan Po looked at Li Mi's departing back, a gloomy look flashing in his eyes.

He knew that Li Mi's move was intended to cause trouble for him and embarrass him.

Of course, it was probably true that Li Mi fell in love with Zhu Rong, but he had just forced Li Mi to go to the Dayong Dynasty and he couldn't do anything about it, so he could only accept it with a pinch of his nose.
