Ancestor Bless: I built a thousand-year-old family

Chapter 4 The Battle of Luoshui
In the eyes of most princes, the combined forces of Guan, Yong, Bei and Song are not weak. All three prisoners once followed the previous king, and they are the strong branches of the royal family. The strongest Guanhou even has nearly [-] soldiers. The Second Marquis of Bei and the remnants of Yin and Shang, in terms of armor alone, cannot be underestimated. Of course, they still believe that the counter-insurgency army can win, but it may be a little more difficult.

Their analysis was correct, but Ji Zhao was hooked, and the luck points were drawn ten times in a row, and two yellow-order items were drawn, one of which was guaranteed, and [Borrowing the East Wind] was very suitable for this upcoming big battle.

[Huangjie · Borrowing the Dongfeng (Dongfeng does not agree with Zhou Lang, Tongquechun locks Erqiao deeply): You can borrow a gust of wind at a specified time, at a specified place, and in a specified direction. 】

The so-called time and place are right for people, and the influence of celestial objects on the outcome of ancient wars is too great.

The two armies did not give in to each other. They prepared for a field battle. 20 people stood at each other on the north bank of Luoshui, and they camped separately. There are not even so many troops and chariots in the local area.

Everyone knew that the war was coming, so the preparations were even more intense. Ji Zhao called the princes and soldiers on the stage to offer sacrifices to the heaven, "My king has been ordered by heaven to shepherd the people. world.

If the thief offends the king and tries to rebel against the destiny, he will definitely be punished.If we don't do our best, will God give up on punishing us?
At that time, the result must be unacceptable to us.

Gu has been instructed by God, God will help our army with strong winds, this battle will be won! "

The traitor also held a ceremony to sacrifice to the sky and carried out pre-war mobilization.

With the sound of drums, the front of the bandit army slowly pressed forward. Ji Zhao's army guards guarded with shields. He looked up at the sky from time to time to judge the time.

When the distance between the two armies was only a few hundred paces, it was originally a clear sky, but in an instant it became dark, and suddenly a gust of wind rose and blew straight across the land on the north side of Luoshui, so strong that it would even break. The trees rolled up, and some tents that were not fastened directly flew up. Needless to say, the dust on the ground covered the sky and the sun. There is no wind at all!
Everyone in Ji Zhao's army realized that God had really sent a gust of wind to help the battle, and the morale was instantly improved to the extreme. Even the princes believed that God was really favoring them in the face of such a strange situation.

It really is such a gust of wind that cannot be done by human beings!

"The strong wind has arrived, cheer on the drums!"

Ji Zhao shouted loudly, waved his sword and laughed loudly: "God has already responded to Gu's request, all the armies ride the wind forward, and they will be able to destroy the traitors in one battle!"

The west wind was blowing from behind the king's army and headed straight to the face of the rebels. Under such a strong wind, it was difficult for an archer to open his eyes. Even if he could shoot an arrow, the power would be greatly reduced. Not to be shy about the disaster!

During the confrontation, Guan Hou saw such a strange thing, and several people's faces turned pale almost instantly, "How could this be? Could it be that I'm really going against the destiny of chaos, so God wants to kill me and wait?"

Wu Geng held his sword and shouted: "How can there be any destiny? Xuanniao bestowed upon the Yin and Shang dynasties for 600 years. Gu had never heard from his father that the destiny of Yin and Shang was over, but when King Wu arrived, he was defeated in an instant. This is the exhaustion of manpower, not the destiny." It has been lost, as long as we can win this battle, the destiny is ours!"

Guan Hou's Shang Qing also shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, the two Qiluo thieves will definitely take advantage of the opportunity to attack, and our army will be defeated. The only plan for now is to form a defensive formation, and then make plans when the wind is low!"

"Your Majesty, you can't form a defensive formation. It's impossible to hold it. The most urgent task is to have the elite guards protect you and evacuate here first. There are still people in the country who can fight again."

The rebels were in a panic, but the lords on Ji Zhao's side were full of people, and even Taigongwang was a little excited: "God bestows it, don't use it, there will be disasters, the archers shoot, disrupt the formation, and prepare the chariot to charge the opposite side. infantry."

Wang Jun's archers moved forward and used the wind to directly bend their bows to shoot arrows. The auxiliary soldiers even ignited a fire, and countless smoke and dust were blown to the opposite side. This time, it was not only the power of sand and stone, but even a burning sensation. The wind, the smoke billowing, make people miserable.

Under these circumstances, how could the bandit army maintain a neat formation, and their faces were full of panic, especially those slave soldiers and Dongyi tribes, whose discipline was extremely poor. People who run away under arms!

When Wu Geng saw it, his face instantly turned pale, thinking of the situation of the Muye Battle at the beginning, the sharp armored soldiers of the Shang army did not even have a chance to confront the Zhou army, and they were directly overwhelmed by those slave soldiers.

The princes led their retainers to set up flags and rushed forward. King Ji Zhao's military drums became more and more intensive, and rounds of arrows were thrown continuously causing damage. This unilateral killing was a deadly blow to morale.

Viscount Shan Yi of the Central Army led his team to attack the chariot where the thief was. He had the ability to hear, and with his tyrannical memory, he could still find the thief even in such a dark and chaotic memory.

He was originally a slave for King Wu's horse husbandry. He was born with supernatural power and extraordinary bravery. He was able to resist the charge of fierce horses. Ji Zhao sealed him in a single land and gave him the title of Viscount. Ji Zhao's kindness.

The speed of the armored soldiers under the impetus of the wind is too fast!
Guan Thief and Wu Geng looked at the sudden appearance of the army in awe. The armored infantry and chariots rumbled through the battlefield, and the drums sounded hurriedly. Dangerous!

But where is the enemy?
Looking around, I saw my own people fell to the ground, and rounds of arrows continued to fall, armored soldiers with shields approached neatly, some of the people around them died, some ran away, and screams and shouts were endless. The chain of command has been partially paralyzed.

Shan Yi led the army to break through the defensive lines almost instantly. The charging chariot was far from being able to withstand the infantry, and the flesh and blood were directly run over, leaving blood everywhere.

As the dense war drums continued to beat, the bull horn sounded on the battlefield, and everyone rushed towards the direction of the sound. A gap.

Shan Yi waved Ge with one hand, and he had already changed three in a short period of time, and no one was his enemy.

The immediate danger was in front of him, and the princes who came with the army immediately retreated with their retainers. Shan Yi saw how many people were going to leave, so he immediately accelerated. He knew that the big gang was too heavy to be taken away. Cut off the big one.

"Boom!"

The sound of Daqing's landing was too loud. The rebels, who were either fleeing or resisting, saw Daqing fall to the ground, and almost no longer had any thoughts of resistance. In an instant, those battle formations that could have resisted the assault of the slave soldiers. Landslides and fissures.

Once the army was defeated, no one would be able to gather it. Everyone turned their backs to the gust of wind and fled to the east. Some even jumped directly into Luoshui in an attempt to swim across Luoshui to survive.

But in the battlefield, whether it is facing the enemy or entering the water, it is just a living target. The chariots of the king's army rumbled past, the chariots of the rebels also ran over their own people without hesitation, and the archers all the way. cover up.Facing the chariot, this time the rebels jumped towards Luoshui one after another, shooting arrows at them, and the blood almost dyed the river red.

The sky gradually cleared, Guanhou and Wu Geng's chariots were extremely conspicuous, they would die if they didn't drive, but they couldn't get rid of the pursuit. .

"boom!"

No one expected that one of Guan Hou's war horses would have an unsteady foothold and flew the entire chariot directly. Guan Hou was heavily smashed to the ground, and his head was sunk in half on the spot, and he died suddenly.

Wu Geng and the others looked at the panting warhorse in front of their chariot with horror in their eyes. Yong and Bei Erhou quickly stopped the chariot and prepared to surrender. Running in this way would lead to death. Only Wu Geng did not give up. But it was all in vain, their war horses were completely incomparable to what Ji Zhao brought from Hokyo, and they were finally forced to stop and be bound.

This battle has been won, but there is no pause. The eastern region is densely populated, and there will be hard battles in the future. If you can kill one more person, you will be one person.

Ji Zhao got off the chariot, dragged Wu Geng to a makeshift stage, and performed a rather crude ceremony.

"Yin Shang lost the mandate of Heaven, and Bang Zhou replaced it. The former king sent Shang to destroy the Shang, but he did not let the sacrifices of the former king Tang be destroyed. The king gave you the old land of Yin Ruins, and let you govern the old people of Yin and Shang. What kind of grace is this? Open rebellion, disobeying the orders of God, this is your failure, today I sacrifice your head to God to warn those who do not obey the mandate of heaven."

"Wow!"

Ji Zhao's announcement of direct execution of Wu Geng was beyond everyone's expectations. They all thought that Wu Geng would be taken back to Haojing as a prisoner.

Without waiting for everyone to react, Ji Zhao raised his sword and dropped the head of general Wu Geng, and shouted loudly: "This expedition is not a simple quelling rebellion, but an expedition to the east. When the expedition is over, the Son of Heaven will divide the princes again and give them gold, silver, grain and silk, slaves!"

"Eternal Son of Heaven!"

"Bangzhou Wannian!"

……

Ji Zhao continued to go east, and a small team of messengers returned to Haojing with the rebel leader. Cheng Hou presided over a large-scale sacrifice ceremony. There is no delay in the need for food and grass.
