The black robe's brow frowned deeper and murmured: "How could this happen? A traitor's leak allowed Zhou State to escape without entering the ambush circle, just like the Mayi siege of Emperor Wu of Han during the Han Dynasty. Because the wind was revealed, the Xiongnu Chanyu ran away. However, even if the Zhou army and their allies retreated, shouldn't the Shang army and the Evil Heaven Emperor pursue it at this time? As long as you can catch up, there will be a chance to remedy it."
The ancestor sighed, his expression became gloomy, and said, "The traffic at that time was not as developed as it is now, and the information was transmitted slowly. When King Zhou and Emperor Xie Tian learned about the withdrawal of the Zhou army, they had retreated into Taihang Mountains and evacuated towards Bingzhou. At this time, the Huozhou Canyon was controlled by the Zhou people. If they wanted to attack from the south of Bingzhou, they were easily ambushed. In other words, the time to pursue the Zhou army was missed, but King Zhou felt that after the Zhou people suffered this defeat, they also knew the power of the Shang Dynasty. They dared not come again in a short time. Emperor Xie Tian even underestimated the enemy of the Zhou people, thinking that they had killed two of their leaders in a row. The Zhou people were scared to death when they saw him and never dared to come again. Even if they came, they could have a thunderous blow to destroy the Zhou army."
"So the Evil Emperor asked King Zhou to send the Dongyi army back and continue to conquer the Huaiyi tribe and Fang Kingdom. As long as the Dongyi is destroyed, the east and the south will have a chance to deal with Zhou Kingdom. The Evil Emperor himself, after threatening and warning other gods, letting them understand their position and position, and not help Zhou Kingdom deal with King Zhou, after swallowing the souls of several Zhenren priests and nobles who informed Wei Ziqi, he entered the seclusion and practice period again."
Dou Peng raised his eyebrows: "When is it still so calm and he is going to retreat again? Why can't he lead the Shang army and simply break into Guanzhong and destroy the Zhou Kingdom?"
The ancestor said calmly: "Because the Evil Heaven Emperor is also pissing off King Zhou, isn't you going to build a world dominated by humans? Then you use your own troops to fight, why should you summon the great gods whenever you have something to do? If you have nothing to do, you will reduce the sacrifices. The Evil Heaven Emperor also wants to let King Zhou understand that without him and all the ancestors and gods, you can't do great things with the power of his mortals. Even if you can beat Huaiyi, it's unknown. At least, Huaiyi has its own guardian god to protect his descendants."
Black Rou sighed: "So, it is because of the disagreement between King Zhou and Emperor Evil Heaven who fought each other and missed the great opportunity to chase Zhou's army and let the Zhou army retreat. However, they did not expect that Ji Fa would soon come back."
The ancestor nodded and said seriously: "And this time Ji Fa came back with all the troops of Zhou and its allies, and all the guardian gods of Zhou. Even through Wei Ziqi, he told the nobles of the Shang Dynasty that the Shang Dynasty had completely become controlled by King Zhou and Emperor Xie Tian. Even the nobles of the Shang Dynasty, like slaves and prisoners of war, could offer sacrifices to Emperor Xie Tian at any time. If they turned to the Emperor Zhou or remain neutral in the war, the Zhou State would guarantee their title and fiefdom."
The cloak gritted his teeth and said, "So that's it. In this way, the army fighting in the east cannot return, and the Shang nobles near the Shang Dynasty capital of the Central Plains began to stop sending troops. No wonder King Zhou could not even take out the troops to deal with the Zhou army. In a hurry, he could only let the slaves go into battle, which gave him an eternal lesson to turn against the battlefield."
The ancestor shook his head: "In fact, this is still a secret negotiation plan between King Zhou and Emperor Xie Tian, and is preparing to lure the Zhou army to attack. On the surface, he pretended to be incompatible with both sides, and deliberately made some Shang Dynasty nobles with instability bewitched by Wei Ziqi and gave up the defense from the Yellow River to Chaoge. In this way, the Zhou army would drive straight in until Chaoge, and it seemed that all resistance was gone. Apart from more than 10,000 royal guards, King Zhou could only urgently arm the slaves and let them fight to face nearly 10,000 Zhou troops, which had never had such a large army since ancient times."
Black Rou's eyes lit up and suddenly said, "I understand. Did these slaves take Gu pills like the Ghost Soldiers and the Dali Pills, so that they could become Changsheng people on the battlefield and completely destroy the Zhou army?"
Dou Peng also laughed: "Yes, when Wu Ding fought with the Ghost King, Fu Ping was also asked to take the ancient Gu Pills, and finally he could fight when he was left with only a skeleton. Is this the real powerful magic of Da Shang? The immortals are all extremely powerful today, not to mention that in ancient times, they were even more human blocking and killing people, and gods blocking and killing gods."
The ancestor nodded: "That's true, when King Zhou's slave army stood in front and was led by evil, King Zhou personally commanded the main force of the Shang army, collected it in the central army, and used 170% of slaves and 20,000 Shang army to fight against the opponent's 80,000 Zhou Kingdom and the coalition forces of the 800 princes. This was a destiny battle. The gods on both sides also took out all their magic powers, and even fought for thousands of years to lose their cultivation, and appeared directly on the battlefield. More gods and ancestors fought on the nine heavens, and on the Western Zhou side, as
Jiang Ziya of the national division led the chariot troops to charge, while Zhao Gong, Zhou Gong and others brought infantry to encircle from both wings. The Shang army was not willing to be outdone and fought back with the slave army. Evil brought his soldiers and horses of Ying tribes to rush forward and fought with Jiang Ziya's vanguard. On the battlefield, ghosts cried and howled, and the wind and clouds changed color. The human soldiers on both sides fought in the storm and rain. Many of these rains were purple-black, which were the blood of the gods and immortals that were sprinkled in the sky!”
Dou Chou shook his head: "After all, the Zhou army is an elite, and there are more fierce chariot techniques from Guifang and Beidi. The slaves of the Shang army are mostly Dongyi prisoners of war. Even if they are willing to fight to the death, they may not be able to stop the impact of the Zhou army's chariots."
The ancestor smiled slightly and said, "In order to avoid the slaves escaping or rebellion, the Shang army tied each fifty people around their waists with ropes, connected them into a row, and used long spear formations to face the enemy. If there are those in the front row who dare to turn around and retreat, the back row will kill the front row and promise these slaves. After this battle, regardless of the result, everyone can regain freedom and become official citizens of the Shang Dynasty. They will reward them based on their military achievements, and even use their own experiences to encourage everyone to be prosperous and wealthy. Today, if anyone does not fight to the death, they will sacrifice them all." (End of this chapter)
