A few days after the New Year in 1046 B.C., the whole of Luoyi was in a state of mountain rain and wind. Not only did the princes from all walks of life gather in the vicinity of Mengjin in a steady stream.

At the same time, the various detectives continued to gather the information they heard from Chaoge and Dongyi to Jiang Shang and others.

There was one thing that I had always thought was incredible.

Last year, when Zhang Kui was attacked by the Zhou army and Huang Yi, he sent a request for help to Chaoge. At that time, the king of Xuan had transferred Yuan Hong's troops from Dongyi to return to the rescue. However, it is rumored that Yuan Hong and other seven monsters of Meishan will no longer move forward when they are a hundred miles away from Bishui Pass. Stand still and stay put. Until the city was broken, there was no trace of them.

And after breaking through the water, the king of Xuan didn't do anything. Even if Jiang Shang immediately withdrew his troops, we participated in the operation to capture the pass. How could the king have no intention of pursuing it?

But then I finally got the answer. It is rumored that after Huang Feibao withdrew his troops, he submitted a table to the king of Zhou, announcing that he would re-submit to the tribute, and immediately cut off diplomatic relations with the Dongyi and Xu Huai tribes, and expressed his willingness to send troops to participate in the conquest.

King Su was overjoyed, and immediately pardoned all the sins of the Huang family, and immediately crowned Huang Feibao as the Southern Uncle. I don't know what he thought at the time. Perhaps it was the spy network and public relations system set up by San Yisheng in Chaoge that played a role.

is still the same sentence, the king is worthy of being the king of merchants, and he forgets his righteousness to such an extent.

As for Zhang Kui and his wife, who were loyal and sacrificed their lives for the country, like Yu Hualong's father and son, Ouyang Chun, and Bian Ji's father and son, they did not receive the slightest praise from the king, and it was really not worth dying.

Within a month, several successive rains and snows caused muddy roads. I went back and forth between the prime minister's mansion and the military camp every day, and I felt very depressed when I saw the sergeants and people complaining.

Knowing this, I might as well stay in the Yuxu Palace, stay longer, and enjoy my gentle hometown.

In mid-February, the Grand Army finally began to move. Prince Wu personally led the elite Zhou army with 300 chariots and 3,000 tigers, plus eight princes to provide 50 chariots, 1,000 tigers, and 70,000 soldiers and horses, under the unified command of Jiang Shang. Cross the Yellow River from Mengjin and enter the commercial land.

King Wu's younger brother Ji Xian, Ji Gao, Ji Feng, Wenchen San Yisheng, Yin Yi, and military generals include all the still alive Yuxu disciples in the army, in addition to his father Li Jing, I, Jin Zha, Mu Zha, Yang Jian, Lei Zhenzi, Wei Hu, Yang Ren, Wu Ji, Long Xuhu, etc. all went out with the team.

At the same time, King Wu and Jiang Shang secretly arranged that Ji Dan and Ji Du would lead an army of 80,000, commanded by Lu Ding, to go east along the south bank of the Yellow River. Ten days later, he joined Huang Feibao and crossed the river from Bishui to the north.

Ji Zheng and Ji Zheng led an army of 80,000, commanded by Nangong Shi, and traveled north to Licheng. Ten days later, he left Taihang and traveled east.

Ji Zhenduo and Ji Wu led an army of 50,000, commanded by Li Jing, and left Mengjin seven days later as backup.

What is noteworthy is that the three-person group of Ji Xian, Ji Du, and Ji was completely dismantled this time and divided into three teams.

After entering the commercial land for two days, he suddenly saw a merchant army of less than 100 people in front of him. At the head of the list is our old friend, a big official and businessman.

Jiao Fei came to the front to greet King Wu and others. "Shangzhong Doctor Jiao is here to wait for His Royal Highness the Marquis of Zhou on the orders of the king."

King Wu stopped and returned the salute, "Lord Jiao is invited, the kid has a little thin wine, please drink it together." Then he ordered to camp on the spot.

King Wu asked Jiao to enter the account, and only Ji Xian, Jiang Shang, San Yisheng and me were the five of them.

King Wu said: "Lord Jiao has helped me Zhou Yuan countless times over the years. Adults are here, I don't know what to say? ”

Jiao Qi smiled, "Jiao Qi is here, mainly to ask the king, when will the coalition army led by Zhou Hou be able to rush to the old capital Boyi?" ”

King Wu pondered for a moment, "Ten days!" After ten days, I will come to Boyi. ”

"In early spring, there was a lot of rain and snow. The army of the Marquis of Zhou came from the west, and the water and soil were not adapted. Will the 10th be tense? ”

King Wu smiled, "Don't worry, my lord, within ten days, the army will arrive." Adults can reply to King Shou with this. ”

"That's good!" Jiao Qi said, "There is another thing to tell you below, the king has transferred Yuan Hongbu and Wu Wenhua to return to the court. ”

"What?"
