Chapter 132: Rebelling against the Song of the Dynasty, Xiqi Acts Righteousness
However, after King Wen hired Jiang Ziya as prime minister, he handed over all the things of Xiqi to Jiang Ziya to deal with, and asked his second son Ji Fa to assist him.
It turned out that since the death of his eldest son Bo Yi Kao, Ji Fa, who is the second son of his relatives, has gradually received Ji Chang's attention, coupled with Ji Chang's old age and decay, his mind is depleted, so he put the burden of Xiqi's rule on Ji Fa's body. And with the joint efforts of Jiang Ziya and Ji Fa, Xiqi Dazhi can be said to be a road that does not leave a stone and does not close the door at night, and everyone praises it.
After everything was on the right track in Xiqi, Jiang Ziya began to prepare for the future war, after all, if the Shang Dynasty's corrupt rule was to be overthrown, it was necessary to have enough force to rely on. Ji Chang was not very dissatisfied with this, his eldest son Bo Yi Kao died at the hands of King Xu, and he was forced to eat the flesh of his son, such a big hatred, even Ji Chang, a good old man, was also furious. And who in the world will not sit on the throne above the ten thousand?
Everything in Xiqi was already going on in an orderly manner, but just when everything in Xiqi was ready to start a war, Ji Chang fell ill. As the saying goes: Illness comes like a mountain, but Ji Chang never had a chance to get better this time. When Ji Chang was dying, he passed the throne to Ji Fa, and ordered Ji Fa to worship Jiang Ziya as his father, and treat Jiang Ziya as if he were himself.
Ji Fa cried and obeyed his fate, and worshiped Jiang Ziya as his father. Shortly thereafter, Ji Chang died of illness, Ji Fa ascended the throne, proclaimed himself King Wu, and posthumously crowned his father Ji Chang as King Wen. Xiqi was in a great mourning, but he did not send troops to attack merchants, but only recuperated
However, it was said that at this time, the imperial song was heard by the Taishi Zhong and returned to the court, which made the government suddenly clear, and the ministers also seemed to see the hope of Yin Shang's revival again. Unfortunately, it backfired, and just when the government was improving, the land of Beihai rebelled again. After Wen Zhong learned about it, he had no choice but to take command again, and he had defeated the enemy in two months.
But during the time when Wen Zhong went on the expedition, Chao Ge became a miasma again, and Fei Zhong and You Hun also became rampant again, but when the two thought of Wen Zhong's scolding of the king, they were also angry in their hearts, for fear that Wen Zhong would settle accounts with him after returning to the court. The two thought about it for a long time, and finally came up with a way, that is, to seize the military power, if they had the military power in their hands, then Wen Zhong probably wouldn't dare to attack the two easily.
Now the military power of Dashang is all in the hands of two people, one of them is Wen Zhong Wen Taishi, and the other is Huang Feihu, the brother-in-law of the king of Zhou. Fei Zhong and You Hun, after thinking hard for a long time, came up with a poisonous plan and prepared to frame Huang Feihu.
The two first bought off the maids in the palace, and when Huang Feihu's wife entered the palace to congratulate the queen, they deliberately brought her to Lutai.
At that time, the king was drunk and confused, and mistakenly recognized Huang Feihu's wife as Daji, so he wanted to turn the clouds and rain with him. In desperation, Huang Feihu's wife jumped off the deer platform, and the fragrance disappeared on the spot. Seeing this, the king suddenly sobered up, and he also felt some remorse in his heart.
At this time, Huang Feihu's sister Huang Guifei learned that her sister-in-law had come to Lutai, so she rushed here and happened to see her sister-in-law fall off the Lutai. Huang Guifei was immediately furious, so she went directly to Delutai and went to find the theory of King Xu.
I only heard Huang Guifei say angrily: "King, what crime did my brother and sister-in-law commit, and the king wants to kill her?"
After listening to Huang Guifei's words, he didn't know how to answer, but the king was also quite dissatisfied with Huang Guifei's questioning tone, so he immediately said strongly: "This woman's words angered the lonely king, and the lonely king will execute her." ”
Huang Guifei heard what the king said vaguely, and her heart was even more displeased, and she asked: "Then I don't know what my brother and sister-in-law said, causing the king to kill her!"
As soon as the king heard Huang Guifei's question, he was aggressive in his words, and he was even more angry in his heart, and said loudly: "The lonely king is the king of all vehicles, who else wants to be executed and can't say anything about you?"
When Huang Guifei heard this, she was also furious, and said sharply: "King, it is the concubine's brother and sister-in-law who is dead now! Why can't the concubines ask each other?"
When the king heard this, he was immediately furious, and directly stepped forward and pushed Huang Guifei, Huang Guifei's daughter, how to be the opponent of the king of Zhou, was suddenly pushed back a few steps, and finally stumbled slightly and fell off the deer platform. When the king saw this, he was immediately shocked, and hurriedly went down to the deer platform to check it, but saw that Huang Guifei had already returned to the underworld.
After the two learned the news, they looked at each other and smiled, and then ordered someone to spread the news, waiting for Huang Feihu to rebel, and then the two of them could naturally gather their military power.
Sure enough, after Huang Feihu learned about this, he was furious, and several brothers in the family persuaded him unanimously, so Huang Feihu was ruthless, and directly reversed the song and went to Xiqi. Huang Feihu is still the king of Wucheng at this time, in charge of the power of the world's soldiers and horses, and if he wants to sing a song, it will naturally be effortless. And he walked silently, and no one knew.
After the second king woke up, he remembered all the things he said yesterday, and thought of his brother Huang Feihu, who shared life and death, and felt very uncomfortable. So he ordered Huang Feihu to see him. Not long after, the person sent had already returned and said, "Great King, the Wucheng Palace's mansion is already an empty mansion. ”
After hearing this, after thinking about it for a while, he suddenly realized that Huang Feihu was the opposite.
At that moment, the king of Xuan did not reflect on himself, and immediately became angry and scolded: "What a Huang Feihu, the lone king treats you well, but you rebel and leave, it is really unreasonable." Then he ordered all localities to arrest the anti-thief Huang Feihu.
Huang Feihu had twists and turns all the way, and survived several near-deaths, but fortunately, there was no danger, and he finally arrived in Xiqi safely.
And just after Huang Feihu arrived in Xiqi, Jiang Ziya discussed with Ji Fa, and officially raised the banner of anti-business, established the country as Zhou, and Ji Fa as King Wu of Zhou. worship Jiang Ziya as Shang's father and prime minister, Feng Huang Feihu as the king of Wucheng to lead the world's soldiers and horses, and all other officials at all levels have been promoted to one level.
After learning of Xiqi's rebellion, the king of Xuan was immediately furious, and immediately sent an edict to the world, saying: Ji Fa is a minister, the son of heaven is a king, and the next is disloyal; the great rebellion disgraces the name of the ancestors, and traps the ancestors in the name of rebellion, which is unfilial; it is unkind to launch a rebellion and abolish the new policy, causing the people to suffer hardships and fall into misery again; it is unkind to disregard the righteousness and achieve the goal, and do not hesitate to collude with nobles, traitors and thieves. Such a disloyal, unfilial, unkind and unrighteous person, what face do they have to accuse the king, and they should be rejected by the whole world!
This text was written by the king himself, and it caused a shock not only in the territory directly under the jurisdiction of the Great Shang, but also in the whole world. Under this article, Ji Fa's reputation for disloyalty, filial piety, and unkindness suddenly spread all over the world. After that, the king called on the conscientious princes from all sides to respond to the king's order, raise troops to Qin Wang, and get rid of the control of the traitor Ji Fa. Even if there has been a last resort in the past, the Son of Heaven will not be guilty of the past, and he will reward meritorious deeds.
Subsequently, the king ordered Wen Zhong, the Taishi who had just returned for a long time, to personally take command and lead an army of 300,000 to Xiqi.
Along the way, Wen Zhong's army was like a bamboo, almost did not encounter any obstacles, and the troops came to Xiqi City, the speed was so fast, it was jaw-dropping, and the good news on the song continued, so that the king was very satisfied, and it was rare to go to the court for a month, and the king had ordered the ministers of the court to prepare a celebration banquet, just waiting for Wen Zhong to return to the court.
It's a pity that the Great Shang army, which has been going smoothly, finally received a setback under Xiqi City.
Xiqi City is extremely strong, the city walls are high, the materials are sufficient, the weapons are excellent, even the fighting spirit of the army is also extremely high, coupled with the kindness of Ji Fa father and son for many years, the people in the city have supported, so, Xiqi Cheng will be a moat to block the Dashang army. And Jiang Ziya, the commander of the Western Zhou Dynasty, also seemed to have an iron heart, no matter how Wen Zhong provoked, he just couldn't hold out, and he cowered in the city like a turtle, and beheaded some dissenting generals and generals who wanted to lead troops out of the city to fight without authorization, so no one in Xiqi talked about the war in vain.
Wen Zhong saw Jiang Ziya use such a rogue move, and in desperation, he could only lead the troops to forcibly attack the city.
I have to say that Jiang Ziya's leading army is as steady as Mount Tai, and the entire Xiqi has exerted amazing combat power under his command, even a veteran like Wen Zhong who has been in battle for a long time is secretly admired. Under the Yin Shang army attacking the city in turn, Xiqi City was not damaged at all, and the city was covered with layers of corpses, even the Shang army camp was covered with scarred soldiers. And these results also made the merchant army, which had always been victorious in all battles, finally realize the strength of the enemy and put away its arrogance.
After these several sieges, Taishi also realized that this Xiqi is now indestructible and can not be broken by manpower, and wants to lure the enemy out of the city to fight, but Jiang Ziya, who is as cunning as a raccoon dog, will be easily fooled, and for a while, Taishi is also helpless, so he has to hang up the battle exemption card to fight again.
However, Jiang Ziya obviously not only has this means, as early as when the merchant army attacked, Jiang Ziya had already begun to lay out, among the land recovered by the merchant army again and again, Jiang Ziya secretly arranged a lot of chess pieces, these chess pieces gathered together, with the help of the familiar terrain to attack the grain road behind Wen Zhong, and repeatedly succeeded, so that Wen Zhong's front supply could not continue, and the rear was on fire.
Wen Zhong and the generals divided their troops to the rear to suppress the rebellion, and the two sides were like cunning foxes and diligent hunters in the rear, one scurrying around in the front, and the other following closely behind.
But that's not the biggest problem, the biggest crisis is food.
The drought for many years has emptied Chaoge and the granaries in various places, and there are still countless people waiting to be fed in all directions waiting for relief, and the little grain in Wen Zhong's hands is squeezed out of the mouths of the people bit by bit, and if the war is not ended, the Great Chamber of Commerce will really be in chaos! Wen Zhong thought to himself that maybe Jiang Ziya knew about his own situation before he adopted turtle tactics.
At this last moment, Wen Zhong finally made a decision, perhaps this is the decision he regrets the most in his life, that is, to invite his fellow Western sects to help him and break his iron wall with the art of immortals.
Wen Zhong first invited the disciples of the Western Sect, the four saints of Jiulong Island, one surnamed Wang Mingmo, two surnamed Yang Mingsen, three surnamed Gao Mingyouqian, and four surnamed Li Mingxingba; these four people are the four generals of the Later Lingxiao Palace.
Before Shang and Zhou, the battles between the two sides were tightly confined to mortals in the world, even Wen Zhong and Jiang Ziya, who cultivated the truth, did not use the immortal method, but the entry of these four saints represented that the immortals were involved in the Shang and Zhou conquests in the world, and they were out of control from then on.
The participation of the four saints is indeed to greatly reduce the pressure on Wen Zhong's side, the solid Xiqi City is just a leaky house in the eyes of the four saints, full of flaws, under the joint attack of the four people, Xiqi is in chaos, Yang Jian, Jin Zha and others under the sect of the sect can't resist this momentum, and finally the second generation disciple of the sect Manjushri Guangfa Tianzun came in person, using the magic weapon of the Xuanmen to fix the four saints one by one, and the disciples of the sect of the sect of the sect together to kill the four.
Then Jiang Ziya fought in Qishan City, blowing three winds, cold like the wind, and then the sky fell goose feather heavy snow, at this time it was the autumn of July, how could the soldiers wearing single clothes and iron armor be able to withstand the cold cold, the three armies were frozen, Xiqi attacked under the leadership of Nangong and Bukit two generals, and the merchant army was caught off guard for thousands of miles, and the loss of the Taishi was strong, and finally stabilized the situation, but the merchant army suffered heavy losses, and the soldiers froze to death. Countless people died in battle, and the weather was cloudy, the wind was frozen, in this case, if you don't withdraw, you will die, and if you withdraw, you will be hunted down.
