Zhou Fan thought that Sanmiao remained neutral, this was not the purpose of his coming, the purpose of his coming was to win for Sanmiao and help the merchant army. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoBesides, Xia Shang's war is imminent, and King Tang is anxiously waiting for his news, how can he drink with Chi Jia to catch up with him? This is too inappropriate, he might as well say a word, and said: "The younger brother was entrusted by King Tang to come to the Miao camp and ask the eldest brother to help the merchant army and eliminate the Xia army." As the eldest brother said to remain neutral, the younger brother lived up to the trust of King Tang, and the younger brother had no intention of drinking with the eldest brother here, so he took his leave. ”

"Come, come, come! Don't be in a hurry, brother! Shall we talk while eating? ”

"The Xia Shang war is imminent, the younger brother has no intention of staying here for a long time, if the eldest brother still recognizes me as the younger brother, please ask the king to agree to the younger brother's request, help the Shang army, and destroy the Xia army."

"Good, good! Although the Xia Dynasty issued an edict to my Sanmiao and asked me to send troops to help him, although Lone did not agree to help him, he still sent troops to Mingtiao. Since the elder brother is here, on behalf of Shang Tang, Lone will promise you, help the Shang Army, refuse the Xia Army, and when the Xia Envoy comes to the Lone Camp, Lone will refuse. Seeing that Zhou Fan was leaving, Chi Jia agreed to him very simply.

Zhou Fan heard Chi Jia say this, only to know that he came on the order of the Xia Dynasty, which also has his suffering, he can immediately promise Zhou Fan to help Shang destroy Xia, it is indeed not easy, Zhou Fan was excited, half kneeling and said: "The younger brother is grateful for the help of the eldest brother, and the Tang King is grateful for the help of the Miao Wang." ”

"Little brother, don't thank you, please hurry up, you go back to Ming Tang King, my Miao King will do what he says."

"Good! However, the younger brother reminded the eldest brother that if the Xia envoy came to contact, the eldest brother could pretend to agree to help, and when the Xia and Shang armies started the war, they would turn to the Shang army and help the Shang to destroy the Xia, which made the Xia army unprepared and unexpected. ”

At this time, the waiter served the food and drink.

"It's good to remind the little brother, it's up to you, come on, let's have a drink!" Chi Jia, Zhuang Zhuang, and Zhou Fan all poured a cup,

"Good!" After Zhou Fan and Chi Jia clinked glasses, the two drank it all at the same time, and then drank a cup with Zhuang.

They recounted their parting feelings to each other. After a while, Zhou Fan stood up and said: "Big brother, general, the Xia Shang war is about to start, the eldest brother and the younger brother will talk to each other, after the victory of the Shang army, the younger brother will talk slowly with the eldest brother, please allow the younger brother to say goodbye, King Tang is still waiting for my good news." ”

"That's okay, I think the Xia envoy should be there soon, you are inconvenient here, and the eldest brother will not keep you, and we will get together after the war."

"Good!" After that, Zhou Fan and Xiaofeng stepped on their horses and ran towards the merchant camp.

Zhou Fan returned to the merchant camp, Huang had been fighting with Tu Tuo for a long time, and it was not over, and they were both exhausted. King Tang was anxiously waiting for Zhou Fan's arrival, and when he saw Zhou Fan returning to the camp, he asked anxiously, "How is King Miao?" ”

"King Miao was ordered by the Xia Dynasty to come to help the Xia army, but because King Miao and I were brothers, after many persuasions from the ministers, he has now agreed to defect and help my merchant army."

"Good! We've got another piece of strength. Now we are just waiting for the rocket signal on the micro. ”

Xia Wangwei saw that the martial arts competition was too time-consuming, and he was very impatient, so he said: "Tutuo, you go back to the camp first, don't fight with the Huang faction anymore, I don't know how long this fight will last?" ”

When Tu Tuo heard Xia Wangji tell him not to fight anymore, he also retracted and returned to the camp. Huang had seen Tu Tuo return to the camp, so he had no choice but to return to the camp without fighting.

Seeing that King Tang had no intention of going out to meet the army, Xia Wang Ji shouted loudly: "Shang Tang, I see this martial arts competition as the end of it, you don't rely on the easy to defend and difficult terrain of Mingtiao, be a turtle, hide in the wall of Mingtiao, and dare not fight with the widow, what kind of hero is this, you lead the troops out and fight to the death with the widow." ”

"Ji, Lone Shou Mingtiao, you have the ability to attack, call Lone out and fight hard, Lone still thinks you don't have this ability. In order to reduce the casualties of the soldiers on both sides, I waited for your soldiers to come to their senses and did not die for you, and we defeated them in one fell swoop. ”

Xia Wangyu listened to King Tang's words, his lungs exploded, his eyes were open, he couldn't speak for a while, and he paused for a moment before shouting: "The soldiers will break through the Mingtiao earthen wall and capture Shang Tang alive!" ”

According to the plan, the Tang King could not keep it, and he lived in Mingtiao, condescendingly, shooting it with arrows and smashing it with stones.

The Xia army could not be attacked for a long time, exhausted, and demoralized. The morale of the merchant soldiers was high, and some even committed a rush mood, and repeatedly proposed to King Tang to take the initiative to meet the Xia army. However, in order to reduce casualties and gain a certain victory over the Xia army, Tang Wang and Zhou Fan blocked the urgent requirements of the soldiers. At this time, Sanmiao was just standing still, as if he was waiting.

One night, the sky was lightning and thunder, and it was pouring rain, Xia Wangjie thought that the weather was bad, and the merchant army must think that the Xia army would not attack, so he was unprepared, and ordered the Xia army and the merchant army to launch an unprecedented offensive. Unexpectedly, King Tang had already expected that the Xia army would take advantage of this bad weather to come to attack and take more strict precautions. No matter how stormy the wind and rain, the officers and men of the merchant army stuck to their respective posts and did not relax at all. The fighting was extremely fierce, with heavy casualties on both sides. At this moment, Tang Wang, Zhou Fan and the Shang soldiers suddenly saw a red flame rising in the west, and Tang Wang and Zhou Fan learned that Zhonggu and Weishang had captured the summer capital, and Weishang had led troops to the east to meet them. King Tang was very happy, everything was in the plan, so he shouted to Xia Jun: "Xia Wangji, your Shang capital has been captured by our Shang army, don't you surrender?" ”

Xia Jun was taken aback when he heard King Tang's shout, and hurriedly turned westward, only to see a merchant army attacking from the west, and hurriedly responded to the battle. At this time, King Tang gave an order, and the merchant army stationed in Mingtiao launched a general attack on the Xia army from east to west. When the Xia army heard that the Xia capital had been occupied by the merchant army, they all lost their fighting spirit. The Xia army was attacked by the Shang army from both the east and west, and was quickly defeated. Seeing that the victory of the Shang army was in hand, the Miao army also struck while the iron was hot, fell to the Shang army, and killed the Xia army and the vassal army led by Xia Wangji. A vicious battle finally ended with a complete victory for the Shang State, and Xia Wangwei was also captured.

In the camp of the Tang King, the Tang King and the princes of the Shang Dynasty, including the Miao King, all celebrated the victory with high spirits. King Tang said happily: "This time the victory of our Shang Kingdom against the Xia Dynasty is inseparable from the help of the princes and countries, including King Miao. When we enter the commercial capital, we will celebrate and comfort everyone. ”

"It is the Tang King's leadership that can win. Our princes congratulate the king of soup on their own days, and we are willing to listen to the command of the king of soup. "Princes and countries.

"Good, good! Thank you all for your support! Subsequently, the king of Tang negotiated with the princes and generals of the princely states on some matters related to the establishment of the state.

At this time, when Zhou Fan saw Wei Shang, he asked, "General Wei, is it still smooth to capture the summer capital?" ”

"It went well, they never expected that we would come and smash their nest. We chose to attack the city at night, met with little resistance, and easily took the summer capital. ”

"Who is the Xia Wangji calling to manage the summer capital?"

"Zhao Liang."

"Is he still in the summer capital?"

"He's dead. We attacked the summer capital, and it didn't take much effort, but it took a lot of hard work to attack Zhao Mansion, this is because the soldiers of Zhao Mansion guarded Zhao Mansion very tightly, and the leader of his family soldiers was Jing Gong who you fought with him in Yi State, this guy is really difficult to deal with, we killed and injured many soldiers in order to enter Zhao Mansion, and in the end, they were still outnumbered. Both Zhao Liang and Jing Gong were killed in the chaos. ”

Thinking of this, Zhao Liang still had some credit for the Shang State to destroy the Xia Dynasty, Zhao Liang thought about it and coaxed Xia Wangji, but he won Xia Wangji's trust. The Xia Dynasty used traitorous ministers to harm loyal ministers, which was also one of the reasons for the demise of the Xia Dynasty. ”

"Lord Zhonggu cried loudly when he saw Zhao Liang being killed in the chaos."

"Lord Zhong is not a mortal enemy with him when he was in the Xia Dynasty, and he should be happy to see him die, why did he cry?"

"Master Zhong said that he cried because he didn't kill Zhao Liang with his own hands, and he felt bitter crying."

"Oh, I see. What do you do with her? ”

"We all know that my sister Xi and General Zhou are brother and sister, and she has helped me many times, we asked her to ask, put her in my barracks, and then heard that Xia Wangjie was completely defeated, and she proposed to see Xia Wangji, I have been hanging on this matter, and I don't know what to do."

"After returning to the Shang Capital, it will be up to King Tang to decide."

"That's good."

At this moment, a merchant soldier broke in and shouted, "Report...... King Tang, Shang has an emergency military situation! The merchant knelt and presented the bamboo slip of military affection.

As soon as everyone present heard about Shangdu's military situation, they were puzzled, you looked at me, I looked at you, and they seemed to be asking, "What is Shangdu's military situation?" Could it be that Xia Wangjie still has an undead army attacking the Shang Capital? ”

King Tang took the bamboo slip, opened it and looked at it, it read: "Father: Tushan Handong took the opportunity of his father to lead the army to leave the capital, and united with the Busan faction to besiege the Shang capital, we obeyed the instructions of the father when he left, and held the city, but the two armies of Tushan and Busan attacked the city too fiercely, and the soldiers of our capital suffered heavy casualties, and now I don't know how the war between my father and the Xia army was." In order not to prevent the Shang capital from falling, Erchen had to hope that his father would send troops to support and encircle and annihilate the Tu and Pu Ershan armies led by Handong in one fell swoop. Sons and daughters bow down! ”

After King Tang saw the bamboo slips, he said to everyone: "Tushan Handong contacted Busan to take advantage of the emptiness of our Shangdu to besiege Shangdu, it is estimated that it has been a few days, and our merchant army has just defeated the Xia army, triumphantly returned to the Shangdu, and annihilated the army of Tu and Puershan in one fell swoop. Chuan Gu's decree ordered the whole army to go to the Shang Capital. ”

"Yes!"

King Tang led a large army to advance towards the Shang capital.

Zhou Fan, Tang Wang, and Weishang walked in parallel from left to right in front of the army, and a small number of vanguard soldiers opened the way in front. Tang Wang said: "I didn't kill Shang Hai in a hurry at the beginning, I wanted to use this to stabilize Handong, but I didn't expect Handong and them to come." ”

"Is it true that Shanghai has not reformed himself, and sent a letter to Handong to attack the business capital." Micro on the road.

"This shouldn't be, the world knows that our merchant army and the Xia army fought a decisive battle in Mingtiao, and Han Dong should also know that he can analyze the emptiness of the lonely Shang capital, so it is reasonable to unite with Busan to attack the Shang capital. But he never expected that our merchant army would solve Xia Jun so quickly. Tang Wang said confidently.

Zhou Fan saw that King Tang was overconfident, so he reminded King Tang: "This person Handong is insidious and cunning, so that the king should deal with hidden weapons and poisonous weapons." ”

"My merchant army can wipe out the large Xia army, and I am afraid that this little so-called Han State soldier, no matter how insidious and cunning your Han Dong is, it will not be able to defeat our Shang army."

"This is also true, Handong wants to ask my Shang army and Xia Jun to fight you to the death and life, both defeated, and he will clean up the mess, first take the Shang capital, and then destroy the Xia capital, and finally build his so-called Great Han Country, wishful thinking, the fight is really good, and now my army will come and crush him to death." Micro on the road.

"Haha......" Tang Wang smiled heartily.

The Shang army had arrived around the Shang capital, only to see some residual baggage, but did not see a single Han soldier, Tang Wang said: "Han Dong must have heard that our Shang army was pressing, so he left his baggage and fled." ”

"Just in case there's a bomb." As soon as Zhou Fan's words fell, a burst of arrows shot like raindrops, and Zhou Fan hurriedly blocked it with his sword. Tang Wang was paralyzed and careless because of the light enemy, and a flying knife hit Tang Wang's chest, and Tang Wang couldn't help but let out an "ah" and fell off the horse. The vanguard soldiers of the merchant army also fell into the ground.

It turned out that Han Dong heard that the Shang army was coming to rescue Shangdu, and deliberately made the baggage all over the place around Shangdu, creating a false impression of escape. Then use straw to hide the archers in it, dig a trap in front, and wait for the merchant army to fall, ten thousand arrows are released, and the vanguard merchant army also falls into the trap.

In an instant, a group of people jumped out of the remaining baggage, and all of them seemed to be outstanding in martial arts, and Zhou Fan knew at a glance that they were disciples of the Busan faction. Seeing this, Zhou Fan said: "General Wei brought a few people and was responsible for protecting the king." The rest of the merchant soldiers and the heroes of the martial arts! Rush with me! Kill him without leaving a piece of armor! ”

At this time, the soldiers in the Shang capital heard the sound of killing outside the city, and knew that the Shang army had arrived, and they also went out of the city to help the battle.

Nazhi Na Handong had already prepared, so that the Busan disciples resisted for a while, and fled back to Tusan and Busan respectively.

Seeing that the king was injured, he wanted to lead his troops to chase and kill the cold soldiers and avenge the king. Zhou Fan said: "Handong has many tricks, with strength, they are not the opponents of my merchant army at all, if they rush to pursue the Han soldiers, I don't know what kind of tricks they want to fall into on the way, and now the king is injured, it is important to save the king, and the small Tushan and Busan, it is not enough to say trouble." When the king is healed, he will take care of it. ”

Weishang listened to Zhou Fan's words and felt that it made sense, so he put down the idea of chasing the cold soldiers and collected the troops into the city.

King Tang was escorted into the Shang capital by the soldiers, and the young lord and Yi Yin and other ministers saw that King Tang was injured, fell unconscious, and urgently called Jiang Taiyi, Jiang Taiyi was the Jiang doctor who used to treat Zhou Fan in Yi State, because of his excellent medical skills, he is now serving as a doctor in Shangdu.

Imperial Physician Jiang came to King Tang, and when he saw King Tang's face, he said, "It's not good! This flying knife is poisonous, and the flying knife on the king's chest must be pulled out immediately. ”

"Toxic? The flying knife on the king's chest is just near the heart, if this flying knife is dialed out, there will be blood spurting out, causing life danger? Yi Yin said.

"Yi Xiang is right, because this flying knife is near the heart, if you pull out this flying knife, it is likely to cause blood spraying, but there is no way, this flying knife is poisonous, if it is not quickly dialed out, it will cause poisonous gas to attack the heart, and the life of the soup is difficult to protect, only by dialing out this flying knife and disinfecting and washing the wound, it is possible to save the life of the king, as for whether the flying knife can cause blood spray, it can only depend on the luck of the soup king." Doctor Jiang said.

When I heard it, I thought that what Commander Zhou said was right, Handong was too vicious, but I didn't expect this flying knife to be poisonous.

Everyone was talking about this flying knife for a while, who should call the king to pull the flying knife? That also has the courage to dial the flying knife for the king, if this flying knife is dialed out, if something happens, then what should I do?

Tang Wang lay unconscious on the bed, waiting for treatment.

"I'll dial this flying knife, whether it's good or bad, it's all up to luck." The speaker is King Tang's beloved concubine Xinxue.

When Zhou Fan saw that it was the king's concubine Xinxue, he thought that he had read it in the history books, and the Han Gaozu Liu Bang, and Xiang Yu's arrow was also allocated by his concubine Puyi.

Xin Xue was about to pull the flying knife, and Imperial Doctor Jiang was on the side, preparing a lot of crushed hemostatic medicine, and as soon as the flying knife came out, the hemostatic medicine was inserted. Xin Xue raised his hands and forcefully pulled out Tang Wang's flying knife, Tang Wang screamed, and suddenly, blood was like a fountain, shooting Xin Xue's face. Imperial Physician Jiang quickly inserted the prepared hemostatic medicine into the hole where the flying knife was drawn, and pressed the wound hard, and after a while, the bleeding had stopped.

After a long time, Tang Wang slowly woke up. When everyone saw the king wake up, they all excitedly shouted, "The king! King! You're awake. ”

When the king saw that everyone was there, he said, "Lone was hit by a flying knife this time, and I am afraid that his life will not last long." After the death of Lonely, please Yixiang, Zhonggu, Zhou Fan and Weishang, the four of you are ministers who take care of their lives, and they will assist the young master. ”

"The king is blessed with the sky, and the lucky stars are shining, he will definitely be able to avoid this difficulty and turn evil into good fortune!" The ministers present said in unison.

"You're going to be fine, my lord, I know that." This is because Zhou Fan knows history well, so he is very confident in saying to Tang Wang.

"Lone knows himself best, you ...... Prepare well...... Let's talk about it. Tang Wang said with difficulty, and then rolled his eyes, and his life was in vain!

Zhou Fan saw it, no, after the Tang King in history overthrew the Xia Dynasty and established the Shang Dynasty, he did not die immediately, and later he was willing to self-immolate in order to ask for rain to save the people, is this historical legend wrong?

"King! The king ......" Xin Xue knelt and cried.

"Father! Father......" the young master knelt and cried.

"King! The king ......" the ministers present knelt together and shouted.

Imperial Physician Jiang examined King Tang again, and King Tang had no signs of life, and Imperial Physician Jiang announced sadly: "The King has returned to heaven." ”

The young master stood up suddenly, he wiped away his tears, and went straight to the outside of the hall. When Yi Yin and Zhou Fan saw the young master go out, they knew that the young master was going to do something impulsive, so they followed out.

The young master went out of the hall and came to the camp of the merchant army, crying and shouting to the soldiers: "The poisonous flying knife of the Han soldier in the king has died. ”

"Ah......" The merchant soldiers present couldn't help but let out an exclamation after hearing this.

"This revenge for killing my father, I want to avenge blood hatred, I want to raze Tushan to the ground. Those who are willing to go with me will gather under my command and attack Tushan immediately! ”

"I wish to listen to the young master's orders! Avenge the king, avenge the Shang country, and set foot on Tu Mountain! The soldiers of the merchant army said in unison.

"Good! Come with me! ”

"No! Cannot! The king's funeral is not over, the country is in ruins, and the matter of revenge should not be rushed, and the matter of revenge should be postponed. Yi Yin said.

"The young master's desire for revenge is very understandable to the minister, but he must not act impulsively. Handong is insidious and cunning, and Tu Shan has a lot of organs, if he wants to attack hard, I don't know how many merchant soldiers will be killed, not to mention that Tu Shan will also use all kinds of poisonous weapons, we don't want to see the second king who injured his life. Zhou Fan said.

"Then the king's revenge will not be avenged?" The young master cried and howled.

"The king's revenge must be avenged, but not now. Can they turn the sky over the small cold country? Now I will talk about the king's funeral. Zhou Fan said.

"Young master, the king has entrusted us to assist you, and now you have to listen to us, go back with us, and do the king's funeral." Yi Yin said.

Other ministers such as Zhonggu and Weishang also came to the young master's side, and you persuaded the young master one by one. Under the persuasion of the ministers, the young master had no choice but to resign from the merchant army and return to the king's mourning hall.
