Finally, in the rain, Xu Feng fell asleep. I wonder how long there will be such days? So peaceful, sweet.

After meeting Zongcheng for the first time, they were greeted by busy military affairs.

Zong Cheng has been arranging a counterattack by the merchant army. The army of the Dongnan Yi people is very strong, and they are characterized by tenacity. In the face of the Shang attack, they marched step by step, and then suddenly attacked, and the Shang army suffered heavy losses this time.

The merchant army had retreated a long way, waiting for the dynastic army to come to the rescue. Half of the 100,000 merchant troops had already suffered casualties and had to be replenished. And to make sure that after the supplement, you can't fail, and you have to succeed in one fell swoop. Because if they lose again, the source of the big merchants' troops will be even more surprised. This point is particularly stressful for Zong Cheng.

The front line was in charge of General Huanglong, and after this defeat, he could no longer keep his position. The king of Shang decided to personally recruit again, and Zong Cheng would once again become the actual commander.

Zong Cheng remotely ordered the troops on the front line to retreat to a safe place, and then asked them to do a good job of fencing the large battalion. Raise your vigilance every night to prevent the enemy from sneaking up again.

Here, the dynasty is recruiting troops again and preparing to set off.

Everything has to be done in two months! Zong Cheng felt a lot of pressure, and many things followed, in addition to the convening organization of soldiers, the transportation of those materials, the production and transportation of weapons and ordnance, and so on.

Zong Cheng is busy every day.

Xu Feng was taken by the people arranged by Zong Cheng, and kept going to various barracks to meet the generals and get familiar with the army.

Those generals took Xu Feng to see the training of the soldiers, look at their ordnance, and explain various tactics. Xu Feng has also studied the way of fighting together with Yi Yin's art of war these days.

He remembered the trick of the Yi Yin Sect, which was also what Zong Cheng meant.

Xu Feng began to patiently ask every battle-hardened general what to do in battle. How to march, how to camp, how to attack, how to defend. How to plan a complete battle, how to preemptively strike strategically, etc.

Xu Feng was thinking and digesting, and he quickly finished reading Yi Yin's Art of War. He then broke down the sentences of the art of war and asked the generals he saw every day, and those generals carefully taught Xu Feng the meaning of those words.

Xu Feng nodded, he knew that everyone would know the book of war, but to achieve victory according to the book of war, such ability is the most important!

That night, it was the end of April. The whole city of Chaoge is a feeling of spring twilight.

The flowers are gradually falling, and the temperature is gradually rising. Such days make people sigh, and some people are restless.

In the palace of the Great Shang Dynasty, the Shang King was meditating at the moment.

He received a report from Zong Cheng that he was almost ready for this expedition and could go out in May. If this is the case, the front line of Southeast Yi can be reached as soon as June.

Shang Wang felt a little tired at the moment, and he didn't know why. Although he always liked to fight, hoping to build a career. But this spring twilight is very, and some longings are still restless.

The palace lamps had been lit, and those lamps shrouded in red silk were beating, giving the whole palace a hazy beauty.

The king of Shang stood in front of his dormitory and looked at the whole palace. The palace rooms in the palace are majestic, high and low. Jackdaws fly around and perch.

Thinking of those days in the war, thinking of those days of ice and snow and scorching heat, the king of Shang was indeed a little tired. At this time, he longs to have some tenderness.

It's just that he thought about all the concubines in the palace, but he couldn't find anyone who made him very satisfied.

He sighed.

Forget it, I'll sleep alone tonight! King Shang smiled bitterly. Just those women, they don't have any charm at all, don't want it, forget it.

In the heart of the king of Shang, in fact, there are still some strange ideas, all along, he thought that Dongyi had beauties, so he tried his best to defeat Dongyi. After defeating Dongyi, after enjoying some local beauties, some people said that Xu Yi beauties were better, and they tried their best to defeat Xu Yi.

But it's strange that after enjoying a lot of Xu Yi beauties, I still feel unsatisfied.

Those beauties are exquisite, they are all stunning in the world, but why can't I like them? What kind of beauty do you need to be satisfied?

King Shang was a little depressed at the moment.

He's back in the dormitory, so be it for tonight! Dream about your ancestors and feel the majesty of your ancestors!

The king of Shang lay quietly on the bed, and he suddenly remembered the dream he had had last night. Last night I had a dream about a white tiger being attacked by a crow. The crow was hiding in a large tree. The white tiger was walking through the forest, and suddenly, the crow flew over, its pointed beak pointed at the white tiger's eyes.

Shang Wang remembered that he had dreamed of this last night, and he woke up, and the moonlight was like water at that time, and he couldn't sleep at once.

What does that dream mean? The Shang King was thinking.

He asked the soothsayer in the palace during the day, and he said that it was a sign of attack. It is recommended to change the dormitory and strengthen the guards.

At that time, I also asked, "Is this king in danger?" ”

The soothsayer replied, "There is no danger!" There was no bleeding from the white tiger at the scene, and there was no bloody disaster for the king! ”

When King Shang thought of this, he was a little nervous.

When did that attack come? Will it come tonight? King Shang thought. Then the king of Shang fell asleep in a daze, and a lake appeared in his dream.

The lake is so clear and crystal clear that countless small streams flow into it.

"This is the source of the river!" In the dream, a voice spoke clearly. The king of Shang knew that this should be the source of the Yellow River.

There are icebergs everywhere, and the snow on those icebergs melts, and the melted trickle flows into this lake, which flows clear water at the other end into the distance.

Eventually, the clear water collected many streams and became a large river, which eventually carried a lot of sediment in a plateau and began to turn yellow, and the great river passed through the great merchants, moistening the land here.

But what did I dream of here? Shang Wang thought. Although I have never been here, I have worshiped the river god and thanked the river for its great moisture. Think about the banks of this river, countless lands because of its prosperity, this river must be well provided.

The king of Shang saw that a strange divine bird rose in the lake, with a golden crown on its head, beautiful feathers, and a long tail, and the colorful feathers of the divine bird's whole body emitted colorful brilliance!

It flew into the air, its wings flapped and shining brightly.

What kind of bird is this?

The divine bird is constantly flying in the air, and it hovers against the lake, pitying itself! All around it, a strange light of energy emanated! This burst of light attracted countless birds of all kinds, and they all flew over and circled with the sacred bird.

The scene was brilliant! The Shang King was stunned.

Divine Bird!

The Divine Bird of Destiny descended to give birth to business! Could it be that this is the divine bird that gave birth to the Great Shang, the one who gave the magical seed to the Mother of the Great Shang Country? King Shang was excited.

It seems that tonight is really worth it, sleeping alone and being able to see such a glorious scene.

The sacred bird hovered around the water's edge for a long time. But suddenly, a burst of black crows flew in, and some wild wolves on the ground also flew towards them. Those black crows had cold eyes, as if they had some intentions. Those wild wolves also have a purpose, and they seem to have traveled a long way.

Suddenly, the wolves became a single person, dressed in animal skins and armed with bows and arrows. Their arrows glowed blue, and they looked like they had been stained with poison.

The men tightened their bowstrings, and their arrows were shot at the bird.

When the blue arrows flew towards the divine bird, the divine bird still did not know how to dodge, it was still hovering there. Seeing that, those arrows were about to hit the divine bird.

"Don't!" The king of Shang shouted,

He woke up immediately. When he woke up, he was alone in a daze. What does this dream mean? The Shang King was confused.

Didn't you say that the Heavenly Destiny Xuanniao descended to give birth to business? Those people are obviously the people of the Southeast Yi, could it be that the people of the Southeast Yi are going to do something that is not good for the big business?

For them, the merchant army is very strong, and they must think of victory. But the quantity and quality of their army can't be improved too much, so they think of some crooked ways?

The king of Shang was a little sober, and he saw that there seemed to be a person outside, through the curtain, and that person was standing there. That's a beauty, King Shang's eyesight is still very good.

It's strange, didn't I call the beauty to sleep tonight? Shang Wang thought.

He vaguely saw that it was a delicate beauty! It doesn't seem to be a beauty in the Central Plains, it's a small beauty in Dongyi and Xu Yi.

I did bring some beauties back from there, but I didn't call them tonight. King Shang thought that he originally wanted these beauties to accompany him, but Zong Cheng said to himself, "King, these women are enemy women after all, and some of them are the daughters of King Xu Yi and Xu Yi nobles, if you can easily spoil them." I'm afraid there will be danger! ”

Therefore, I didn't spoil those women, but now, why is there another one?

"Who are you, who called you!" King Shang asked.

He sat up and put on his clothes, it was spring twilight, and the king of Shang was thinly dressed.

"I am a woman of Xu Yi, and I am the concubine of Lu Yong, the king of Xu Yi. Of course, I was forcibly recruited into the palace by him. I didn't like that man in the first place. This time, the slave and maid felt very honored to be chosen to serve the king, because the king is a real hero! The beauty said.

"But how did you enter my room, didn't you stay in the Bright Moon Hall to take care of it?" Shang Wang said.

"That's right, I am grateful to your princess Concubine Lin. She said, "Your Majesty, you have been depressed these days, and you must be longing for a gentle beauty." She doesn't think she's soft enough, so she makes sure to pick a beauty for you to your satisfaction. So she came to us and chose me. She fell in love with me and arranged for me to come! She said that you have been bored lately, and she arranged for me to come here in the middle of the night to wait for you. Concubine Lin said, Your Majesty, you usually dream back at midnight and like to think more. At this time, you will be very happy to be gentle with you! Beauty said.

King Shang knew that there was this, Concubine Lin was always understanding, if it weren't for her lack of softness, in fact, he still liked to be with her, hey, King Shang sighed.

"You come in!" Shang Wang said.
