The land of China, the Shang Dynasty, the city of songs, the night. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The winter cold is still raging, and the snowflakes are still filling the sky and the earth.

On the land covered in silver, there stood the palace of the Great Shang King, which covered more than 300 miles. In the Shang Palace, on a solemn and simple seven-story platform, an old man with silver hair sat quietly on the top of the seventh floor of the platform.

The winter night was cold and windy, and the old man's robe and long beard fluttered in the wind. He sat quietly cross-legged, as if it had been like this since the birth of heaven and earth.

He is the great wizard of Shang, the most respected diviner of Shang King Taiwu, and the most mysterious person in the Shang Dynasty, Wu Xian.

Legend has it that he once instructed the Xuanyuan clan, and Tang Yao also respected him as a good minister, and no one knows how long he lived. But at all times, he is admired by the world. Because of his assistance, Shang has lasted for nearly 600 years.

Wu Xian sat on the top of the Buxing Platform all day long, he was the only one on the seventh floor, and the other six floors were the places where his registered disciples meditated, with a total of 554 people.

At the top of the seventh floor, there is a map of stars engraved in the sky, and Wuxian is in the middle of the stars, echoing with the extreme north star of the sky.

The night is quiet, the wind is cool, the moon is clean, and it is the time when everything is silent......

Suddenly, the starry sky darkened, and although there was no cloud, the moon glowed black, and the stars that had originally covered the sky were all hidden and disappeared except for the flickering and dimming of the polar north star in the sky.

At the same time, everyone in Bu Xingtai woke up and stared at the night sky with a frightened expression.

Wu Xian frowned, opened his eyes, and looked solemn.

The soothsayers below whispered, inexplicably terrified by the vision.

"Wu Xian"

"The child is here!" replied a middle-aged man on the fifth floor of Bu Xingtai, "Father, this vision ......"

"Go and bring the king to you, and say that there is something important to discuss. Wu Xian said slowly.

"Yes," Wu Xian was slightly shocked. Since Shang's army broke through the Su tribe last year, and the Shang king took Su Daji as his favorite concubine and became unscrupulous, Wu Xian has never paid attention to the king, but today......

However, after the tea effort, the king of the emperor's robe came to the stage of Bu Xing. As a king, he became respectful when he arrived here. first bowed to the top of the stage, then lowered his head and asked softly:

"In my later life, I will be honored to meet the Great Wizard!"

"Come on. ”

Receiving the answer, the king quickly climbed up the steps to the Buxing platform.

Prince Su is also a generation of Tianjiao, extremely talented, both civil and military, born with divine power, and now at the age of 59, he has reached the ninefold realm of qi refining. In the entire scope of big business, he is already one of the few super masters.

However, he still had to climb the stairs one by one, because the one at the top of Bu Xingtai was already at the peak of refining gods, and he was only one step away from entering the sainthood.

Soon, the king came to the top of the stage, saluted again, and then sat opposite Wu Xian, not daring to make a sound.

Wu Xian glanced at him, frowned, and said unhappily: "Zishou, you've been having a pretty romantic time lately! Su Daji is so good that you have forgotten the heart of martial arts!"

The king lowered his head a little ashamedly and said, "I fell by myself, and it's none of my business!"

"Hmph, I don't want to say anything more, you're so self-conscious. Wu Xian snorted coldly, "I called you here today to warn you that the luck of the Shang dynasty has been interrupted......"

"What? How is it possible! Could it be that there is a change on the Dongyi side? Impossible, in the past few years, our Great Shang Army has been like a bamboo, and Dongyi has been defeated in several battles, what big waves can they make?"

"And the Northern Ming Dynasty has been established for less than ten years, the foundation has not yet been stable, and in order to overthrow the Dayue Dynasty, they also called our Dashang a tribute, it stands to reason that they cannot threaten us, why did the fortune of the dynasty suddenly interrupt!"

"That'...... What about Zhou?" Wu Xian asked.

"Xiqi is in turmoil, just them? Just the clowns who jump off the beams! The little Fang Guo also dares to talk about destroying the merchants! The grasshopper shakes the big tree! It's ridiculous! I don't measure my own strength!" The king sneered.

"Alas, for the past two years you have been greedy for pleasure and immorality. Weizi ran away in a rage, your uncle's kind advice was dissected by you, the virtuous minister Shangrong was degraded by you, Jizi pretended to be crazy and stupid, and you didn't let him go, Taishi defected, and Shaoshi Jiang also fled to Zhou, and now the government is corrupt, but you don't repair the suburbs, don't sacrifice the temple, and blindly use the strange ability to win Su Daji's joy.

Wu Xian reprimanded, "Although Dongyi has been beaten badly by you in recent years and has been captured by thousands of people, today's Shang is not as strong as it was when Zilu, Zizhao, and Zimi ruled. ”

"Even so, my big business is not something that the Ji clan chaos can destroy!"

Wu Xian sighed again: "Do you know Zhou's current strength?"

“…… Ignorance. ”

After Ji Chang's death, Ji Fa continued to reuse virtuous ministers such as Lu Shang, San Yisheng, Taidian, and Nangong Shi, and united with Yong, Lu, Peng, Pu, Shu, Qiang, Wei, Ji and other tribes, and was about to attack Chaoge. At this time, the total number of their combined forces was already 45,000. ”

"There are more than 40,000 people, and the development is very fast, but I have hundreds of thousands of soldiers in Dashang, so why should I be afraid of him. The King said disdainfully.

"Then let me ask you, where is the main force of my big business now?"

"In the fight against Dongyi...... Do they want to sneak attack?"

"They're about to arrive in Makino!"

"What? Such an important matter, why don't Fei Lian and Evil come to report it to me. The king was furious.

"What do you think......" Wu Xian glanced at him.

“…… Hmph, I'll kill them at once, and then organize someone to fight Ji Fa. Even if the Chaoge garrison is empty now, it is easy to destroy his Ji Fa. ”

Wu Xian looked at the arrogant man with a puzzled look.

Zhou does have some strength, and now there is a saying among the people that "the world is divided into three, and the second is in Zhou". The Ji clan won the hearts of the majority, but the military strength was not enough to defeat the Shang. The five hundred soldiers who stayed behind in Chaoge were all masters of refining the seventh level or more, and there were also dozens of people in the Qi Refining Realm.

Although Zhou united with all the countries, he did not have much combat power in the high rank, and there were only less than fifty Qi Refining Realm warriors.

As far as the low-end army is concerned, no matter how weak Chaoge is, 100,000 people can still be recruited. Ji Fa was obviously not wise enough to use troops at this time.

In this case, what is the root cause of the interruption of business luck?

After the king left Buxingtai, he summoned hundreds of officials overnight to punish Fei Lian and Evil, because considering that the war was imminent and there were many things, he was temporarily put in prison and executed after the war.

The meeting lasted for more than two hours, and there was a tense atmosphere between the government and the opposition, and the unbridled King of Xuan went to the court for the first time in two years. The majestic and domineering Shang Emperor has returned, and the Emperor who has conquered the Quartet and looked down on the world has returned.

Half a day later, a large number of conscription notices were posted in various neighborhoods of Chaoge City, the city guards arrested strong men in the streets and alleys, and some of the prisoners in the prisoner of war camp were also released.

In the early morning of the second day, Ji Fa's troops came to Makino on the outskirts of Asagajo.

Ji Fa, who was dressed in a royal robe, was heroic, with Huang Yue on his left and Bai Yu on his right, came to the front of the army and swore an oath before the war, and the strength of the sixfold realm of refining qi made his words spread throughout the three armies: "Raise your Ge, erect your spear, lift your shield, and listen to my oath."

The Coalition soldiers fell silent, their faces flushed and their expressions excited, for they were about to do something extremely great.

"As the saying goes, hen Si Chen is a misfortune in the family. Now the king only listens to the woman's words, and even the sacrifice of his ancestors has been abandoned. He did not appoint his royal brothers, but let the fugitive slaves hold important positions, let them endanger the nobles, disturb the Shang state, Yin was guilty of serious crimes, and he could not but be killed. Today, I'm Ji Fa Gong Xing Heavenly Punishment...... Soldiers, work hard!"

The morale of the Zhou army was greatly boosted, and they shouted "King Wu will win" and marched towards Chaoge.

However, it didn't take long for the hastily formed Shang army troops to rise from the horizon, and the Shang Dynasty army was coming in a mighty way, and the battle flag stretched for more than ten miles, because the winter snow still remained on the ground, and the war horses did not raise the dust that covered the sky and the sun, but the momentum of the Zhou army made the morale of the Zhou army immediately extinguished.

Winter snow covered the earth, but where the two armies stood, the snow had melted, revealing two damp loess of earth.

Within a day, Shang mobilized 170,000 men to form a temporary army, but the good and the bad were mixed, and the morale was low, all kinds of contradictions were sharp, and the combat effectiveness was very weak, and they were very afraid of the attack of the Zhou army.

The Zhou army on the opposite side was also afraid of the huge merchant army at this time, and the endless army was terrifying to look at.

The two sides were in fear of each other like this, maintaining this delicate atmosphere, silently confronting each other......
