Chapter 91: The Changes of the Zhu Family a Hundred Years Ago (I)
All the questions in Bai Yulu's heart were gradually and slowly revealed to him as the second elder Feng spoke.
It turned out that the people of Bai Yulu and their three guards were all descendants of the Zhu clan, the largest tribe in the Fengchu Kingdom nearly a hundred years ago. At that time, in the Fengchu Kingdom, in addition to the Xiong clan of the Gong clan, the Zhu clan was the largest clan. And now the Zhao clan, the largest tribe in Fengchu, is just a second-class clan.
In the generation of Bai Yulu's grandfather, his grandfather Zhu Zhitang lived in Ling Yin of the Feng Chu State, and in the control of the Feng Chu State, Ling Yin was equivalent to the prime minister of the Lei Qin State, and it was also a position above 10,000 people under one person.
At that time, Zhao Yi of the Zhao clan was just a middle doctor. However, this Zhao Yi secretly colluded with the Soul Demon Hall of the Feng Chu Kingdom, and through the power of the Soul Demon Palace, the power of the Zhu clan was gradually squeezed out of the court of the Feng Chu Kingdom.
In order to be able to get the military power of the Feng Chu Kingdom, Zhao Yi and the people of the Soul Demon Hall colluded with the Liluo Hall of the Fire Zhao State to let the Fire Zhao State launch a large army and attack the Feng Chu State. At the critical time when Zhu Cheng, the general of the Zhu clan at that time, led the army to fight a decisive battle with the army of the Fire Zhao Kingdom, Zhao Yi betrayed the Fire Zhao Kingdom through the Soul Demon Palace.
At the same time, the powerhouses of the Soul Demon Hall and the Liluo Hall also pretended to be the soldiers of the Fire Zhao State, and assassinated Zhu Cheng, the general of the Feng Chu Kingdom, before the two armies went to war. The army of the Feng Chu State lost the general, and the deployment was all known by the Fire Zhao State. Therefore, after a big battle, the 300,000 Fengchu army was almost wiped out.
After the news of the defeat reached Yingdu, the imperial capital of the Fengchu State, Zhao Yi immediately began to fan the flames, preaching everywhere that someone should take responsibility for the defeat. At this time, the general Zhu Cheng had been assassinated, so the only one who needed to bear the responsibility was Ling Yin Zhu Zhitang, who recommended Zhu Cheng at that time.
Therefore, after the news of something spread in Yingdu, everyone's goal was aimed at Zhu Zhitang, and they asked him to stand up and bear the defeat this time. Under the turbulent public opinion, Zhu Zhitang had no choice but to take the initiative to resign from Ling Yin's position.
Originally, after Zhu Zhitang resigned from Ling Yin's position, the matter should have passed. However, what Zhu Zhitang didn't expect was that Zhao Yi actually jumped from the status of a middle doctor to the Ling Yin of the Feng Chu Kingdom with the help of the Soul Demon Palace.
And the first thing Zhao Yi did after sitting on the throne of Ling Yin was still grasping the defeat of the Fire Zhao State. The general Zhu Cheng is dead, and Zhao Yi will take all the blame for the blame on the deputy general Zhu Duanhe and all the generals of the Zhu clan.
Due to the loss of 300,000 troops at one time, this was almost a fatal blow to the Feng Chu State. Therefore, when Zhao Yi proposed to punish these people, not only did not arouse the opposition of others, but obtained the unanimous consent of other tribes and the ministers of the court.
In fact, it is also because the Zhu clan has long been the largest clan in the Fengchu Kingdom, which makes the other forces of the Fengchu Kingdom jealous, of course, already jealous. At this time, of course, more people don't mind kicking hard in the back of the Zhu clan.
In the face of the raging trend of Feng Chuguo being disliked again, this time Zhu Zhitang did not sit still. It is impossible for him to see that Zhaoyi's conspiracy succeeds and eradicate these generals in his Zhu clan one by one.
Zhu Zhitang secretly ordered the strong people in the clan to investigate the reasons for the defeat of this war. With the power of the Zhu clan at that time, soon the conspiracy of Zhao Yi and the Soul Demon Hall surfaced.
After learning the truth, Zhu Zhitang was furious, and immediately took the strong men of the Zhu clan to the palace of Yingdu, and presented all the collected evidence to the king of Fengchu at that time in front of all the courtiers.
However, what Zhu Zhitang didn't expect was that Zhao Yi not only denied it on the spot, but also pointed at Zhu Zhitang, in order to protect the general of the Zhu clan, it is estimated that he designed to frame himself.
At that time, the Soul Demon Hall at that time, within the Fengchu Kingdom, was still a force hiding in the shadows. Therefore, when Zhu Zhitang once again showed all the evidence of the collusion between Zhao Yi and the Soul Demon Hall in front of the ministers of the Feng Chu Kingdom, Zhao Yi really had nothing to say.
Therefore, although it cannot be directly proved that Zhao Yi colluded with Huo Zhao Guo, the matter of collusion with the Soul Demon Hall was confirmed. Therefore, Zhao Yi only did Ling Yin's position for less than a month, and he was thrown down.
However, Zhu Zhitang was not able to be reinstated, but only saved the lives of several generals of the Zhu family. However, this has already satisfied Zhu Zhitang. However, at this point, in fact, Zhaoyi's purpose has been successful, at least, by this time, the Zhu clan has completely lost the military power of the Fengchu State.
Subsequently, Zhao Yi did not rush to seek the position of Ling Yin this time, but gradually infiltrated his own Zhao clan's people into the army of Feng Chu State. In such a period of two years, almost all the armies of the Feng Chu Kingdom have basically been controlled by the Zhao clan.
Subsequently, when Zhao Yi used the Soul Demon Hall again, he secretly coerced and lured the courtiers of the Feng Chu Kingdom, and ascended to Ling Yin's throne again in one fell swoop. After Zhao Yi became Ling Yin again, he did not let go of the Zhu clan.
He had always believed that if the Zhu clan existed in the Fengchu Kingdom, it would be an eternal potential threat to him. Therefore, he once again colluded with the Soul Demon Hall and secretly assassinated the strong man of the Zhu clan.
There were assassinations of clansmen one after another, and Zhu Zhitang thought at that time that it would be Zhao Yi's poisonous hand from below. Therefore, in a fit of rage, he raised the strength of the whole clan to completely eradicate the Zhao clan.
However, what Zhu Zhitang didn't expect was that this was a trap set by Zhao Yi for the Zhu clan, and the Zhu clan had not yet opened out of the territory, and was completely surrounded by the army of the Feng Chu State.
Subsequently, rumors spread in the country of Feng Chu, and rumors spread that the Zhu clan was going to rebel. Coupled with the fact that the Zhu clan had clan soldiers moving, this matter was quickly believed by all the people of Feng Chu State. As a result, the Xiong clan of the Gong clan also believed in this matter, but did not send anyone to investigate this matter.
Subsequently, the then king of the Feng Chu State ordered the army to encircle and suppress the Zhu clan, and a big war was about to start at any time. And when Zhu Zhitang was angry, Zhao Yi and the Soul Demon Hall sent someone to find him, bluntly saying that if they could hand over the Zhu Yu Divine Dragon Order, the Zhu clan would not be in danger of the destruction of the entire clan.
At this time, Zhu Zhitang realized that since a few years ago, everything Zhao Yi did was targeted, and all of them came to the Zhu Yu Shenlong Order in the clan.
Of course, Zhu Zhitang would not compromise with them, the Zhu Yu Divine Dragon Order was a family heirloom of the Zhu clan, how could it be handed over to others.
Zhu Zhitang's refusal made Zhao Yi immediately murderous, and the army immediately attacked the fiefdom of the Zhu clan. All of a sudden, the entire Zhu clan's fiefdom was full of rivers of blood and corpses. Zhaoyi's cruel methods attracted the attention of several tribes, including the Gongzu Xiong clan, and they all stood up to stop Zhaoyi's behavior.
However, these people have just come forward and openly accuse Zhaoyi. Subsequently, they received threats from the Soul Demon Palace, and some tough forces were assassinated by the Soul Demon Palace. For a while, no one dared to speak out for the Zhu clan anymore.
Just when all the people of the Feng Chu Kingdom thought that this time I was afraid that the Zhu clan would be completely finished. Among the Zhu clan, five thousand light flying soldiers suddenly appeared. These light flying soldiers have never been shown in front of outsiders before.
When the five thousand light flying soldiers made a brazen move, they shocked the entire Fengchu Kingdom, they didn't expect that there was such a strong army hidden among the Bai clan. Five thousand light flying soldiers, in the middle of the battle, killed the 30,000 troops of the Fengchu State without the power to fight back, and after the rout, they were shocked to find that the 30,000 troops were finally able to escape back, only less than 8,000 remained.
The light flying soldiers of the Zhu clan showed such a strong combat power, which made Zhao Yi feel very frightened, if there were more of these light flying soldiers, I am afraid that there would be an army of 100,000, and it would be impossible to exterminate the Zhu clan.
Subsequently, Zhao Yi once again sought the help of the Soul Demon Palace, and with the help of the strong people of the Soul Demon Palace, they gradually stabilized their position under the attack of the light flying soldiers, but they also had no ability to defeat the Zhu light flying soldiers.
In a hurry, Zhao Yi once again used the army without authorization, sending 200,000 troops to the Zhu fiefdom, vowing to completely destroy the Zhu clan.
Facing hundreds of times the army with them, Zhu Zhitang knew in his heart that this time the Zhu clan was probably in a catastrophe. However, with the light flyers here, it is still possible for them to rush out.
For this reason, Zhu Zhitang immediately summoned the elders of the clan and ordered all of them to rush out of the Fengchu Kingdom and enter the barbaric mountain range between the Fengchu Kingdom and the Lei Qin Kingdom, a place that neither country had set foot in. However, in the wilderness mountains, there are some beasts that humans have never dared to touch.
However, now the Zhu clan has no other choice but to venture into the Savage Mountain Range in order to survive.
Subsequently, under the leadership of Zhu Zhitang, hundreds of thousands of people of the Zhu clan began to attack the barbaric mountain range between the Feng Chu State and the Lei Qin State. However, along the way, due to the encirclement and interception of the army of the Feng Chu Kingdom, when they were about to reach the Barbarian Mountain Range, there were less than 20,000 of the hundreds of thousands of clansmen left.
By this time, it can be said that the Zhu clan is basically finished. At that time, there was still the pursuit of the army of the Feng Chu Kingdom behind him, and when Zhu Zhitang endured the pain in his heart and led this clan into the barbaric mountain range, he never thought that he was immediately attacked by the beast clan in the mountain range, and lost thousands of people again.
At this time, the Zhu clan really has no way to go to heaven and no way to enter the earth. Soon they were pursued by the army of the Feng Chu Kingdom, and they were surrounded in a valley. Zhu Zhitang, who was grief-stricken and indignant, looked up to the sky and shouted, the sky died of the Zhu family, and then he hanged himself.
