Chapter 57: There is an unspeakable child suffering
On Xiqi Mountain, blood flowed downwards with the snow, and corpses lay everywhere.
The battle between the two armies ended almost without any suspense.
Using five thousand troops against sixty or seventy thousand troops was tantamount to seeking death, not to mention that the Zhou soldiers were too careless and walked directly into the encirclement of the merchant army.
On the other side, Jiang Ziya was still waiting for news about the victory, but what was waiting for him was a group of remnants of soldiers who had finally managed to break out.
"Prime Minister Jiang, it's bad! There is an ambush in the merchant camp. The merchant generals are all wearing cotton clothes. General Nangong and Wu Ji have been captured! The losses are heavy!"
"What? Impossible!" Jiang Ziya shook his head subconsciously.
"It's absolutely true, Prime Minister!"
Jiang Ziya hurriedly counted with his fingers, and sure enough, he calculated the information that Nangong Shi and Wu Ji had been captured by mistake, and almost all the five thousand elite soldiers were lost!
"Pfft! How is that possible?" Jiang Ziya covered his chest, so out of breath that he spat out a mouthful of blood, his face turned pale.
How could this happen? Why did the merchant army take precautions?
No wonder there are some experts in the business giving guidance?
At this time, Jiang Ziya was in the mood of a dog. He originally thought that he could capture Lu Xiong, Zhang Guifang and others without spending a single soldier. As a result, not only did he lose 5,000 elite soldiers, but Nangong Shi and Wu Ji were also captured.
.
…
Letter after letter was sent to Chao Ge, and Zi Shou, who was sitting on the dragon chair in the Nine Rooms Hall, became increasingly confused.
Big... big victory?
Also arrested Nangong Shi and Lu Xiong?
What's going on? Did I read that correctly?
Zi Shou picked up the document and took a look at it. Did you read that right? Nangong Shi led five thousand elite soldiers into the merchant camp and then had them captured?
What's going on? Didn't Jiang Ziya soldiers freeze Qishan? But how did Lu Xiong capture Nangong Shi?
Then the sound of the system sounded, and Zi Shou felt even more desperate.
"The mission has been completed! Lu Xiong defeated the Western Zhou Dynasty! Rewards are distributed."
"The black bird king's robe: the acquired spiritual treasure, the black bird's protection. It can resist attacks against soul-like magic weapons such as soul-stirring, ecstasy, and soul-stimulating weapons!"
Zi Shou:……
Zishou couldn't help but wanted to ask Fei Zhong to ask what was going on, but unfortunately Fei Zhong was on the front line.
"Your Majesty is wise! General Lu wiped out thousands of elite soldiers from the Western Five Dynasties. His first expedition to Xiqi was a great victory! I believe that Xiqi City will be conquered soon." Wen Zhong also smiled heartily after reading the document.
Although the document was vague and did not explain why Jiang Ziya let five thousand elite soldiers enter the merchant camp to die, the atmosphere in the court was still filled with joy.
"Let Fei Zhong come back." Zishou was silent for a moment and said through gritted teeth.
He wanted to know what was going on, what went wrong, and why he still won?
That night, Zishou's order was sent to Xiqishan. Fei Zhong got the news and hurried back to Chaoge.
"Fei Canjun, let me take you there!" Taoist Styx said.
"Then thank you so much, Taoist Master." Fei Zhong said with a smile.
At that moment, the Styx Taoist Yuntu Escape took Fei Zhong to Chaoge.
Early the next morning, the two arrived at Chaoge.
"Your Majesty, we have won!" Fei Zhong said excitedly when he arrived at the Nine Rooms Hall.
"Tell me, how did you win?" Zishou asked Fei Zhong, suppressing his heart.
When they heard about Grand Master, Huang Feihu and others also looked at Fei Zhong with curiosity.
It is said that there are many talented people in Xiqi, but they can easily annihilate Xiqi's five thousand elite soldiers and capture Nangong Shi. Even Grand Master Wen is curious about the reason.
"All this is thanks to the king!" Fei Zhong said.
Zi Shou:???
What the hell does this have to do with me?
"Thanks to your Majesty for your wisdom and wisdom, you reminded us to be careful about the ice before setting off." Fei Zhong explained excitedly: "Be careful about the ice, so we brought a lot of cotton-padded clothes and quilts before setting off. We expected that the weather in July would be unbearably hot.
Most likely it won’t be used, but unexpectedly, Jiang Shang’s old man’s approach was followed by heavy snowfall for several days, so the cotton-padded clothes and quilts were just in use!”
Hearing this, the civil and military ministers on both sides burst into an uproar.
Bring cotton-padded clothes and quilts?
It actually snowed?
Your Majesty, is this a prophet of the future?
"The king also reminded us to be careful of the sea. The sea refers to snow water. After the snow fell, the old man Jiang Shang did what he did and melted the snow, causing the water to flood the three armies. At that time, the snow water was like sea water. Fortunately, we have the king.
According to the arrangement, the Styx Taoist Master put up the water-avoiding talisman on the tent camp in advance, thus avoiding flooding!"
Fei Zhong's voice was excited and full of admiration: "Without the guidance of the king, we would have either been frozen to death by Jiang Ziya or drowned by Jiang Ziya! That old man Jiang Ziya is extremely vicious. After flooding the entire army, he continued to freeze. Fortunately, there is
It’s the king’s arrangement!”
"hiss!"
Although Fei Zhong's explanation was not very clear, after listening to it, the ministers gasped one after another, and they were all shocked and horrified.
There were indeed capable people in the Western Zhou Dynasty! They were able to freeze Xiqi Mountain! It’s incredible!
But the king is even more wise! He predicted that Jiang Ziya would freeze Xiqi Mountain, and asked Fei Zhong to prepare. Not only did he break the fatal situation set by Jiang Ziya, but he also annihilated thousands of elite soldiers from Xiwu!
Comparing the two, the king is still more powerful!
Suddenly one after another eyes fell on Zishou, some were full of awe, some were full of admiration, some were full of shock, some were full of fear, and some were full of sighs.
Zi Shou:???
What's going on? Do you really believe what Fei Zhong said?
Wait, when did I remind them to be careful about ice?
"The king is wise and powerful, and he has no plans left!" Fei Zhong shouted excitedly.
Later, some ministers followed suit and shouted.
"The king is wise and powerful, and he has no plans left!"
Zi Shou:???
Ying Ming Shen Wu, your sister! I haven’t done anything!
Can you guys use some snacks? I just want to lose the battle and uninstall the system and go home!
Surrounded by the shouts of the ministers, Zi Shou felt confused.
What went wrong?
Who is playing me?
Besides, in Xiqi City, after Jiang Ziya learned of the defeat, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood. After much deliberation, he had to send people to rescue Nangong Shi and Buji first.
After all, Nangong Shi was the number one general in the Western Zhou Dynasty, and Wu Ji was his disciple.
"Prime Minister, Nezha is back outside!" At this time, someone came to report from outside the door.
"Nezha? Let him in quickly!" Jiang Ziya was pleasantly surprised.
"Uncle, I'm here!" Soon, Nezha walked in.
He was resurrected after being brought back by Taiyi Zhenren. Taiyi Zhenren noticed that the number of days had changed and passed the Nine Dragon Divine Fire Mask to him before letting him go down the mountain.
"It's better to come back!" Jiang Ziya breathed a sigh of relief. With Nezha here, the embarrassment of having no generals in the Western Zhou Dynasty was relieved.
Soon, Jin Zha and Mu Zha also returned to Xiqi. After Yuanshi Tianzun was resurrected, they rushed to Xiqi to find Jiang Ziya.
"Haha, with the three of you, Nangong Shi will be saved next." Jiang Ziya was overjoyed and ordered: "Nezha, I order you to go to Sishui Pass to rob the prison car immediately and rescue Nangong Shi and Wuji!"
