Chapter 179: The First Achievement of Dixing Thaumaturgy (The Second Update, Asking for a Monthly Pass)
The army marched all the way to Xiqi City.
Ji Fa, the son of Xibohou, led the princes of the West Road and the sons of Ji Chang to greet the Son of Heaven outside the city
Zhang Zixing finally met the opponent in this "fate", Ji Fa is in his early thirties, his appearance is relatively handsome, his manners are polite, and he belongs to the type that looks more pleasing to the eye. is also respectful to the Son of Heaven, extremely deferential, and does not dare to slack off.
All the princes praised Ji Fa unanimously, and they all played the Son of Heaven: if it weren't for the son of Xibohou who stepped forward and led the princes to form a coalition and bravely resist the dog Rong, the countries in the West would have been wiped out by the dog Rong long ago.
Zhang Zixing listened to the praise of the princes, and his face also showed approval, but he was even more vigilant in his heart: Even Huang Feihu's army was not the opponent of the dog Rong, and he Ji Fa was able to resist the army of the dog Rong? Does the invasion of the dog Rong have anything to do with Ji Fa? What is the real cause of death of Tai Bo and Zhong Yong?
Ji Fa invited the Son of Heaven and Concubine Yan to rest in the temporarily reconstructed palace, and sent Sanyi Sheng and Nangong Shi to receive the generals and troops who entered the city.
Zhang Zixing looked at the carefully arranged temporary palace and a group of beautiful palace maids, showed a satisfied look, and said: "Aiqing has made meritorious contributions to fighting against dogs, and her loyalty is commendable. Xibohou Guo will be succeeded by someone, and with you in the west, the widow will be able to save a lot of worry in the future. ”
Ji Fa listened to the tone of the Son of Heaven, although there was no actual reward, but there was a hidden intention to let him act as the Xibohou in the future, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and took the opportunity to present a batch of rare treasures, which made the Son of Heaven look very happy.
Ji Fa said goodbye and returned to the house. went straight to the secret room where Jiang Ziya was.
Ji Fa saluted Jiang Ziya and said, "Teacher, the Son of Heaven personally led the army, and today he has arrived in Xiqi. ”
Jiang Ziya nodded and asked, "Did the Son of Heaven ask you about the dog Rong?"
Ji Fa said: "The Son of Heaven did not inquire. On the contrary, he admired the palace very much, and wanted me to guard the western land in the future. In my opinion. In recent years, the Son of Heaven has become more and more obsessed, and there is no longer the original sage. ”
Jiang Ziya groaned: "After the Son of Heaven favored Da Ji alone, he was indeed gradually ignorant and ignored the government all day long. When there is something important, you have to go to Concubine Yan's Shouxian Palace to ask for advice. Although I still love the people, I have lost the prestige of the DPRK and China, and this matter is my personal experience, and it should not be fake. However, due to the fact that the Son of Heaven was too famous in his early years, and he blessed all the people of the world with his new policy, although the princes and officials complained, the people's hearts were never lost. If the son wants to win with the hearts of the people, I am afraid that it will be even more difficult. ”
Ji Fa frowned and said, "Since the people's hearts are not available. In the future, you should think about the princes and the princes. ”
Jiang Ziya nodded approvingly, only to hear Ji Fa say again: "It's just that the dog and wolf are also very ambitious first, if they are allowed to be powerful, they will be afraid of breaking the contract in the future, and they will not even be able to clean it up." ”
Jiang Ziya shook his head. said: "Childe doesn't need to worry. At present, the Son of Heaven led an army of 400,000 to march in person, and there will be a fierce battle with the dog. According to my teacher's news. There is a great divine help behind the dog Rong, even if the great divine does not make a move, the Son of Heaven will inevitably pay a heavy price for his victory this time, counting the defeat of Huang Feihu, the vitality of the merchant army, it cannot be restored in three or five years, and the son of Zhengli will have an incident. If the dog Rong wins, the son can also sit and watch the profit, or even surrender first, and gradually eliminate the power of the big merchants through the dog Rong, when the army of the dog Rong and the merchant army are exhausted, the son will rise again, and he will be able to fight a battle. ”
Ji Fa's worry decreased slightly, and he asked again: "The teacher said that the dog Rong has the help of the great sacred, if he is allowed to sit big and occupy the big business, then the general trend has been decided, how should I fight the enemy?"
Jiang Ziya said with a smile: "The dog Rong is a foreign race, even if he plays the song of the dynasty, it is also the name of invasion, if the prince starts in the name of righteousness at that time, he will be responded to by the world, and he can justifiably realize the ambition in his chest." As for the great sacredness, Childe does not need to worry, he has sacredness in the West, but I don't have it in Middle-earth? Childe just do what I say, if necessary, my master will definitely help. ”
Ji Fa was overjoyed and gave a deep salute to Jiang Ziya: "I have a teacher, like a soup to get Yiyin, everything and listen to the teacher's instructions, if you succeed in the future, you should respect the teacher as your father and share the glory." ”
When Jiang Ziya heard this, his heart fluttered for a while, and he accepted it calmly, as if he had really built an immortal achievement, and it would be immortal.
On the other hand, the Inu Rong army, which occupied the city of Qishan, also learned the news that the emperor of the Great Shang Dynasty had personally conquered and arrived in Xiqi.
The Dog Rong King Langya first disagreed with the personal conquest of the Son of Heaven, and said to the generals under his command: "I heard that the Son of Heaven of Shang has been obsessed with women in recent years and ignored the government and politics, but now he dares to lead the army to conquer in person! This time he will be defeated and return, and he will play the matter of Huang Feihu again!"
The blood wolf general He Chimu said with a smile: "The scout came to report, that day the son of heaven also came to bring the concubine here, I heard that the Yan concubine has the color of the country, and the beauty of the bones is unparalleled, it is for her that the son of Shang does not ask about state affairs, and abandons the government, if the king can capture the woman, not only can he be stunning, but also make the big merchant lose face, wouldn't it be happy!"
The golden wolf general Zaka also smiled and said: "Is the military a child's play, that Shang Tianzi actually brought his favorite concubine here, and before he fought, he was already discouraged!"
A Taoist beside Wolf Tooth first spoke: "The king must know about Dongyi back then, Shang Tianzi once shot with a fight, so that the Dongyi Divine Bow and Elite Cavalry were wiped out in a battle, and he used a strange plan to attack the Dongyi base camp, and the wisdom and strategy are not trivial, and the enemy must not be underestimated." ”
The wolf also seemed to have great respect for this person, and nodded: "What the national teacher said is reasonable, but now it is different from back then, the stirrups and crossbows that the big merchants rely on have long been used by me. As for the art of rushing, how can the Shang army be able to defeat our army? Now the city occupied by our army can be abandoned at any time, and the royal city of the main camp is deep in the desert, so why be afraid of this tactic? No matter how powerful the Shang Tianzi is, with the presence of the national teacher and a few Taoist leaders, he should be worry-free. ”
It turned out that this Taoist was actually the national teacher of the dog Rong land, and the national teacher did not have arrogance when he saw the wolf, and he analyzed that the head was the way, so he no longer persuaded him.
"The three generals of the wolf tooth obey the order!"
Blood Wolf General He Chimu, Golden Wolf General Zaka, and Black Wolf General Fu Biyuan hurriedly got up, only to hear the wolf also order first: "Order the three of you to lead the Wolf Tooth Army of 50,000 to Qishan." Let that Shang Tianzi try the fangs of my wolf clan!"
The three generals received the order and were about to leave, when the national teacher got up and said, "Wait, I have a friend." Possessed by supernatural powers, new to visit. Just let him go with you to help. You must be careful and not rude along the way. ”
The three generals showed joy on their faces, and saluted to the national teacher: "With the help of the master and the authentic friends, this battle can be a complete success." ”
The news of the 50,000 elite soldiers of the dog Rong approaching the city of Xiqi reached Xiqi. Zhang Zixing secretly sneered: I haven't gone looking for you yet. You've been delivered to your door!
The next day, the Dog Rong army fought outside the south gate of Xiqi City. Zhang Zixing took Daji and led the generals to the city tower to watch, only to see that the Dog Rong Army was really strong and strong, and the lineup was neat. Among them, a wolf flag is spread high, and there is a general below, which will not be a horse, but a giant wolf the size of a horse, with a fierce appearance. Sharp teeth and claws. The surrounding cavalry were well-trained, and the horses "danced with wolves", but they did not frighten away.
The general shouted, "Who in the merchant army dares to fight me?"
Daji seemed to be a little scared of the enemy troops approaching the city, and didn't dare to look at it more, in fact. Her gaze was secretly on a person beside the Son of Heaven. The man's entire body was covered in peculiar armor. Even his true face is hidden, and it looks very mysterious-the national teacher Xiaoyaozi! I didn't expect him to come!
Hong Jin, who was familiar with the enemy's situation, stepped forward and said: "This is one of the most powerful three generals under the command of the wolf, the blood wolf general He Chimu. With Taoism, Ji Kang in our army is under the hands of this person. ”
Zhang Zixing looked at the generals behind him and asked, "Who saw this first formation?"
The mysterious man in armor immediately stepped forward to ask for battle, and at the same time, there were several generals who walked out of the ground.
Zhang Zixing smiled at the armored man and said, "A few pawns, how can you go out of the battle?" ”
Ji Fa and the princes on the side were taken aback when they heard the title of the Son of Heaven, this mysterious armored man was actually the legendary national teacher who defeated the Boyi examination! Daji was even more excited, but he didn't dare to show it on his face.
The national teacher said: "General Yu Lao is not a trick, for fear that the enemy will use tricks to plot, and he also asked General Zhang Kui to go with him and sweep the battle for the old general." ”
The voice of the national teacher was confused and very peculiar, and the Son of Heaven seemed to be accustomed to it, and immediately agreed with the national teacher's opinion.
Yu Hualong was happy to see the first merit, and when he saw that the Son of Heaven had agreed to his invitation to fight, he was overjoyed at the moment, and led the army out of the city with Zhang Kui to meet the enemy.
When He Chimu saw that there was a general going out of the city, he laughed, and pointed at the three generals Yu, Zhang, and Chen with the scimitar in his hand: "Which one will die first?"
Yu Hualong stepped forward and said angrily: "The general is rampant, and Yu Hualong is here!"
A general came out beside Hechimu: "Such an old man, how can you work for the blood wolf general!"
When He Chimu saw it, it turned out to be Zang Mao, the subordinate general, and nodded: "Zang Mao, this first skill is given to you!"
Yu Hualong heard that the other party thought that he was in the bag, and his anger was even greater, and he urged the horse to run towards Zang Mao, who was strong and held two sledgehammers in his hands. Yu Hualong took advantage of the staggering of the two horses, dangerously gave way to the sledgehammer, slipped the knife diagonally, and suddenly pulled out a long bloody mouth at Zang Mao's waist.
Zang Mao didn't expect to hurt the other party with a face, so angry that he shouted, and threw the hammer in his hand towards Yu Hualong, Yu Hualong's weapon was strong, and he made a skillful force, turned the back of the knife, and made a half circle, and the hammer was thrown to the ground by this skill, unable to hurt people.
Without waiting for Zang Mao to cast the flying hammer again, Yu Hualong took out three knives from his pocket, about the size of his palm, and threw them towards Zang Mao.
When the merchant army saw Yu Hualong kill the enemy general, their morale was greatly boosted. Yu Hualong stretched out his knife and pointed at Hechimu, making a provocative gesture, Hechimu was furious, urging the giant wolf to rush towards Yuhualong. This giant wolf came extremely fast, far better than ordinary horses, Yu Hualong felt the fear of the war horses under the seat, and did not dare to slack off, so he hurriedly waved his sword to meet him cautiously. After a few blows with the opponent's scimitar, the giant wolf suddenly turned his head and bit half of the head of Yu Hualong's war horse, and Yu Hualong was caught off guard and fell to the ground with the horse corpse.
He Chimu was about to rush forward and kill Yu Hualong, when suddenly he shouted angrily from behind: "Fangou Hugh is going to hurt people with wild beasts, Zhang Kui is also coming!"
He Chimu seemed to be behind him when he heard this voice, and he didn't care about chasing and killing Yu Hualong, so he quickly turned the giant wolf, only to see that there was indeed one more in front of him, with a mighty appearance, holding a long knife, riding a black horse under his crotch, and a strange small sarcoma on the horse's head. Yu Hualong took advantage of this opportunity and hurriedly fled towards the main formation.
Zhang Kui didn't say much, raised his knife to slash, and Chimu fought with him a few times, only to feel that this person's martial arts were still above Yu Hualong, and it was difficult to win, so he wanted to repeat the old trick at the moment, urging the giant wolf to attack the opponent's mount. How do you know that the black horse faced the giant wolf, it was not afraid, and the speed was faster than the giant wolf, easily flashed the sharp teeth of the giant wolf, twisted the body, raised the hind hooves and kicked towards the belly of the giant wolf, the giant wolf had never suffered such a loss, immediately suffered pain, howled miserably, took a few steps back, and almost lifted Hechimu off the ground.
Zhang Kui was unforgiving, and slapped the sarcoma on the head of the mount Smoke Beast, and the speed of the Smoke Beast was twice as fast, and he caught up with He Chimu in a blink of an eye. Zhang Kui's knife was like lightning, wiping it towards the head of the enemy general. He Chimu was so frightened that he flicked with all his strength, and the whole person jumped off the back of the giant wolf, but in the end he was half a beat slower, and his right shoulder was slashed, which was deep to the bone.
He Chimu was also tough, gritted his teeth and took out an object from the magic weapon bag and threw it at Zhang Kui. This thing is a golden pestle, and when it flies in the air, it seems to have some kind of strange Sanskrit sound.
As soon as Jin Guang touched Zhang Kui, he heard him scream and fell down the black smoke beast. Seeing that he knocked down his opponent, He Chimu hurriedly stepped forward, wanting to make up for his life with a knife, but he didn't know that Zhang Kui's shadow was not seen underground - in the original, Zhang Kui relied on the technique of ground practice to successfully dodge Nezha's Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover and Yang Jian's must-kill dog technique Roaring Heavenly Dog, just a golden pestle, it is not a problem.
Where did He Chimu know this, he was puzzled, he was looking around, and suddenly he was alarmed, and he raised his knife to cut it behind him, but he felt a pain in his left foot, and he was cut off at the knee. saw Zhang Kui's body "jump" out of the ground.
"Earthwalk!" He Chimu exclaimed, endured the severe pain, and was about to cast the golden pestle again. Zhang Kui suddenly twisted his body and disappeared from the spot, and the ghost appeared behind him again, killing Akagi with a single sword.
Seeing that the main general was killed, the dog Rong army was in chaos, Zhang Kui and Yu Hualong took the opportunity to lead the army to pursue, and the dog Rong suffered countless casualties, and even the wolf flag was stabbed by Zhang Kui.
Seeing that the two generals were victorious, Zhang Zixing did not chase after him, and ordered the troops to be withdrawn. and ordered someone to write down the first merit of Zhang Kui and Yu Hualong. The generals were amazed by Zhang Kui's Taoism, and the five brothers Yu Hualong and Yu De also thanked Zhang Kui for saving his life and the national teacher for reminding him.
When the golden wolf general Zaka and the black wolf general Fu Biyuan, who were camped ten miles away, heard the news of He Chimu's killing, they were shocked, where did they dare to underestimate the merchant army, retreat ten miles more, integrate the remnants of the army, and prepare to fight again in the coming day.
