Chapter 182 Zhuolu Battle Anecdote The allusion of the mantis arm as a car
Jiufeng stood up with a gloomy face and saluted, "Jiufeng has seen Lingye. β
It turned out to be the Feng Ye of the Feng Clan, it seems that the Feng Ye was also under the decree of the ancestor of Zixiao Palace and the holy decree of His Majesty the Yellow Emperor. Feng Ye - it's been a long time, do you still recognize me Plough Spirit?" Plough Spirit twisted his neck and fussed.
"It turns out that the two great gods have known each other for a long time, very good, very good......," Fang Qingyin said happily.
"Hmph, don't you know!" "At the beginning of the Zhuolu War, the Ling clan and the Feng clan were both under the command of Emperor Chiyou, if it weren't for the defection of Feng Ye later, Emperor Chiyou might not have lost, the Spirit clan might not have perished, and I might not have died!"
Jiufeng said in a sullen voice: "Don't mention the things of the past again, they all have their own destiny. β
"Hmph, the Mandate of Heaven? Could it be that Feng Ye's Mandate of Heaven is to defect and surrender!"
"Plough Spiritβyou?!" Jiu Feng suddenly became angry, and the nine red lights behind his shoulders rose and disappeared suddenly.
Seeing that the two of them were not in harmony and seemed to be arguing, Fang Qingyin hurriedly persuaded and said: "Master Ling, the past things will not be mentioned again, today's things are the most important, I hope that the two great gods will look at the face of the ancestor of Zixiao Palace and His Majesty the Yellow Emperor, give up their previous suspicions, work together, and help Qingyin below." β
Fang Qingyin brought out Hongjun Ancestor and Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor, and Li Ling was immediately in awe, and he didn't dare to be strong anymore, so he said angrily: "Mr. Fang is right! We are tired, so we will take our leave and rest!"
Fang Qingyin hurriedly ordered Xiang Huayin to go quickly, arrange the camp of the soldiers of Dayan Mountain such as Liling, and prepare a banquet to catch the wind and wash the dust.
Xiang Huayin was ordered, while calling "Lingye go slowly, please follow the end of the future", and rushed to catch up.
Jiufeng's face was vague and he didn't say a word.
There was an awkward silence in the hall, and it seemed that only the faint breathing of everyone could be heard.
In that year, the Zhuolu War, Chiyou was defeated, and when the retreat was broken by the leader of the Spirit Clan, the Plough Ling, but was killed by the Yellow Emperor's general Ying Long, and the Spirit Clan was wiped out, but the Plough Ling Lingyuan was not extinguished, and the corpse was not bad, so he sucked up the flesh and blood of people, rerefined the flesh, and caused a huge disaster, and finally was suppressed by the Yellow Emperor Zixiao Palace Golden Fu under the Dayan Mountain, and a town was more than 4,000 years.
There are many reasons for Chi You's fiasco in the Zhuolu War, such as the Yellow Emperor's eloquence, such as Chi You's tyranny, such as the righteous immortals helping the Yellow Emperor, etc., but Li Ling recorded the main reasons for the fiasco on Jiufeng's head, because Jiufeng was the earliest surrender mutineer.
At the next reception, although Fang Qingyin wanted to resolve the old grievances for the two great gods, the old grievances of more than 4,000 years could not be resolved in a few words and a half, and in the end, the banquet broke up unhappily.
There was nothing to say about the night, and the next day quietly came.
And the next day was the first day after the six-day period!
Fang Qingyin knew that once the six-day period passed, the great god of Zongbu Hou Yi would never wait one more day, so on the seventh day, he summoned the gods such as Jiufeng and Liling to gather in the Shuai Hall to discuss the strategy for the battle. And Xiang Huayin did not attend the meeting because he held an important position in patrolling.
Before Fang Qingyin could speak, he saw a sentry panting and rushing into the palace of Shuai, kneeling down and reporting: "I have ordered the general to report to Mr. Fang: The army of Dushuo Mountain has set up a battle formation under Chongkun Pass, preparing to attack the city, and the number of troops is 30,000. β
"Thirty thousand?" Fang Qing was secretly taken aback.
"Exactly, the Great God of Zongbu is waiting for Mr. Fang to speak at this moment. β
"Well, got it. Fang Qingyin said with a solemn expression, "You quickly go back to the general: all the soldiers and horses will strictly defend the city pass, and we will go out of the pass to meet the battle immediately." β
"No!" the sentry replied and hurried away from the hall.
Fang Qingyin looked at the gods and said worriedly: "The 30,000 troops of Dushuo Mountain poured out, it seems that the great god Zongbu wants to win a battle and capture Chongkun Pass." β
"The victory in the first battle is in line with Feng's intentions, and Feng is willing to immediately lead the army out of the customs to meet the great god Zongbu. β
Although I only brought a thousand brothers, but all of them can be used as ten, so please ask Mr. Fang to let me Liling go to meet that great god of Zongbu first, I will kill him like killing a chicken, and I will ensure that I will kill him without leaving a piece of armor!"
"Master Ling, you must be cautious when you speak, and you must not speak wildly, so as not to explain it badly afterwards. Jiufeng knew the root of the plough spirit, so he persuaded him.
If you Feng Ye are not convinced, let's try to fight a battle first, and settle the old accounts of more than 4,000 years ago!"
Seeing this, the gods of Dayan Mountain will gather around one after another.
The gods of the Heavenly Cabinet Mountain will also rush up to protect the nine phoenixes.
The two sides clasped their fists and stared at each other, as if they were ready to fight at any time.
Before the war with Dushuo Mountain began, Liling and Jiufeng had infighting!
Fang Qingyin hurriedly persuaded: "The two great gods are not going to fight, it is not trivial for the great god Zongbu to personally lead an army of 30,000 to attack Chongkun Pass, at this time, the two great gods are needed to work together to resist the enemy, if there are any old grudges, please let it go for the time being." β
Hearing this, Jiu Feng said with a look of shame: "Feng is rude, Feng obeys Mr. Fang's orders." β
"That's it, let's not fight for the time being, please Mr. Fang quickly give the order to fight!"
"Okay, please go and gather the soldiers quickly, and go out of the pass to meet the battle with the next one, be sure to stop this round of attacks on Dushuo Mountain first, and buy more defense time for Chongkun Pass. Fang Qingyin ordered.
Feng obeyed. β
"Plough Spirit obeys!"
Jiufeng and Liling temporarily put aside their prejudices, obeyed Fang Qingyin's orders, and each led his generals to leave the Shuai Hall in a hurry.
After a while, the two great gods of mountains and seas gathered all the soldiers under their command in the point field outside the Shuai Palace, with a total of about 3,000 people, but unfortunately only accounted for one-tenth of the Dushuo Mountain coalition army.
Although the number of troops is small, the fighting spirit is very high.
Suddenly, the war drums rang and the sky-high price rang, the gate of Chongkun Pass slowly opened, and three thousand soldiers went straight out of Chongkun Pass like wolves and tigers.
Quickly set up a battle formation under Chongkun Pass, Jiufeng led his nineteen generals to occupy the left wing, Li Ling led his thirteen generals to occupy the right wing, and Fang Qingyin stood in the middle, ready to meet the Dushuo Mountain coalition army.
Sure enough, the army of Dushuo Mountain had already gathered in front of Chongkun Pass, and all the soldiers were lined up, swords and guns flashed, and flags fluttered.
The great god of Zongbu, Hou Yi, sat proudly on the car of the Jianhua canopy. There was a governor in the car who knelt down to serve, and Fei Tianjun stood with a whip under the car. In front of the car and left and right are the four Zang brothers who ride the hanging tiger (Zang Qi guards the camp and does not go out of the battle), and behind the car is the 30,000 army of Tonggong Suyu and Dushuo Mountain.
At this time, seeing that Fang Qingyin was out of the battle array, the soldiers and horses were only thousands, compared with the army of Dushuo Mountain, it was like a small witch seeing a big witch, and Hou Yi was even more proud when he sat in the Jianhua cover car.
He drove the Jianhua canopy car slowly to the front of the battle array, and arrogantly shouted: "Fang Qingyin, the Lord has been waiting for you for a long time, the six-day appointment has passed, and today is the seventh day, and the Lord is about to attack this Chongkun Pass." β
"The great god has indeed kept his oath, and I am here to thank you very much. Fang Qingyin had already walked out of the formation, and the chief inspector thanked him.
"Oh ha...... Fang Qingyin: The Lord has given you a six-day deadline, but unfortunately you only invited these thousands of reinforcements, how can your thousands of reinforcements resist the attack of the 30,000 army of the Lord of the Buddha? β
"The great god is also bad at this. Fang Qingyin said without being arrogant or humble, "The words of the great god suddenly reminded me of a story, this story is very interesting, I wonder if the great god can appreciate his face and listen to this story?"
"Listen to the story?!" Hou Yi said with cold eyes, "Fang Qingyin: 30,000 troops are pressing the border, life and death are only in a moment, you actually have Yaxing to tell the story to the Lord of the Deity? Okay! Whether you delay time or play tricks, it doesn't hurt for the Lord of the Deity to see the face of the ancestor of Zixiao Palace, and listen to you!"
"Thank you for your face, please listen to the great god...... Fang Qingyin really told the story unhurriedly, "It is said that in ancient times, there was a prince who went out hunting in a car and was about to board the car and set off, when he suddenly found a small insect next to the wheel raising its forefoot and wanted to fight with the wheel. Then the prince felt strange and asked his attendants, "What kind of worm is this?" and the attendants replied, "This worm is a praying mantis, and it is a worm, and it knows and then does not know it, and does not measure its strength and underestimates the enemy......
"Oh ha......" Before Fang Qingyin finished telling the story, Hou Yi laughed loudly, and then said proudly, "Fang Qingyin, are you talking about the Lord of the Buddha, or are you talking about yourself?
Fang Qingyin replied calmly: "The great god only knows what the entourage said, can he know what the princes said?"
"What did the princes say?" Hou Yi said in surprise, "What did the princes say?!"
Then the prince said, "Fight big with a small one, and not be afraid of life and death, if you are a man, you will be brave for the world!" Then the prince ordered his attendants to return to the car to avoid it. β
"Well, the princes said it very well, although the praying mantis is small, but it dares to raise its feet to fight the wheel, and its bravery is not inferior to that of the warriors. β
"What the great god said is that a praying mantis can make the princes admire, return to the car to avoid, and now there are three thousand brave warriors here, why not follow the benevolence of the princes and avoid this battle, so - the next and three thousand brave warriors are grateful. β
The praying mantis raised its feet to fight the wheel, and Zhuang Gong returned to the car and avoided it, this allusion comes from the chapter "Zhuangzi β’ The World".
The reason why Fang Qingyin quoted this allusion was because he hoped to impress Hou Yi with Qi Zhuanggong's respect for the praying mantis, so as to ask him to withdraw his troops and return to Dushuo Mountain.
However, Fang Qingyin didn't know that Hou Yi had waited for more than 4,000 years in order to take this step, and now he had decided to give up his life, how could he say that he would give up the army!
