"Open the gift package for newcomers!"

[The gift package for newcomers is open, you get 5000 grains, and you get human rank, celestial phenomenon, and heavy rain]

[Human Rank·Astronomical Phenomena·Rainstorm (it depends on people to make things happen): You can have a rainstorm at a designated place and at a designated time. 】

Seeing this picture of celestial phenomenon - heavy rain, Zijue's heart skipped a beat, and a gleam flashed in his eyes.In ancient wars, the influence of the right time and place was simply too great, and it could easily change the direction of the war.One rainstorm is enough to determine the success or failure of a war.

Immediately Zijue found 'Zhu'.

"The chasing troops of the Zhou Dynasty are approaching, and the soldiers are exhausted and unable to fight. Fortunately, God has sent a destiny to me. It will rain a few days ago. You lead people up the river. During the day, you will use the beacon fire as a sign. When you receive the signal, dig Open the Huai River and flood the Zhou army."

Zhu's order to Zijue was a bit strange. It was autumn and the air was crisp at this time. How could there be a heavy rain?But he couldn't refuse the king's order, so he had to choose 500 people and go upstream.

After Zhu took away 500 people, Zijue immediately used the reinforcement order. Since these soldiers were unusable, he could only use the 100 people provided by the system.

After Wang Jue used the reinforcement order, he soon saw Dan rushing over.

"Your Majesty, there is a group of hundreds of soldiers asking to see them. They are the lost soldiers from our country."

"Invite them over!" Zijue said happily.

Soon, I saw a group of burly men approaching. These men were all wearing leather armor and copper helmets. They were clearly an elite army.After seeing Zijue, these soldiers quickly knelt down and saluted.

"Your servant is one step late, Your Majesty forgives me!"

"Get up." Zijue stepped forward to help him up.

"It's not too late, at such a critical moment, we need the help of warriors!"

"What are your orders?" Yi asked directly.

"Go and lead those soldiers, and then you have to fight the Zhou people!"

Zijue didn't trust those defeated soldiers. After having his own people, he immediately arranged for them to take over. With these 100 reinforcements, there was no problem in controlling those demoralized soldiers.

Immediately afterwards, Zijue took out some food and let everyone have a full meal. Geng, who had gone to borrow a boat from the Huaiyi tribe, also came back. Huaiyi had agreed to lend them a boat.

With the Huaiyi boats and the raft built by Zijue, it took about one afternoon for four thousand old and weak soldiers to successfully cross the Huaihe River.

Since Dazai broke through Yancheng, the Fang kingdoms that supported Yin and Shang surrendered one after another.Only some survivors of the Shang Dynasty fled in all directions, some of the survivors of the Shang Dynasty fled to the East Sea, and the other part went south to Huaisi.

Dazai did not let these people go, except for leaving a part of the army to guard Yancheng, the rest of the army joined the army of the princes of the Zhou Dynasty and continued to chase.

The Eastern Expedition has come to an end, and a large number of Yin and Shang kingdoms have been expelled from the country. There has been news that King Cheng is planning to entrust a group of princes. The fiefdom is in this Yin and Shang homeland. If you want to get rewards, you must seize every opportunity to make meritorious deeds .

"General, those merchants have been found, and they are crossing the Huai River!" A soldier came to report excitedly.

"Huaishui?" Shan was overjoyed when he heard it, and quickly ordered: "The three armies obey the order and immediately set off for Huaishui to capture and kill rebels, and everyone will be rewarded!"

As soon as the order was given, the army immediately moved into action.

Successive failures made these Yin and Shang survivors frightened. When they heard that the Zhou Dynasty army was coming, they immediately panicked. Fortunately, Zijue had already controlled the army. With the support of the army, the situation was finally stabilized. .

Zijue knew that if he kept running away, this Yin Shang survivor would collapse soon. If he wanted to re-establish the state, he had to control these people, so he had to give them confidence.

So what could unite people's hearts more than a hearty victory?
Zijue let the old and the weak hide behind, and he personally led [-] soldiers to line up on the south bank of the Huai River.

On the north bank of the Huai River, banners and flags are unfurled, and Bangzhou's army stretches for several miles. As the saying goes, once there are more than ten thousand people, there is no limit.Tens of thousands of troops gathered north of the Huai River, even across the river, it still made people feel more stressed. After all, the Huai River is not a natural danger of the Yangtze River.

Seeing the boundless army across the Huai River, these soldiers who had already become frightened birds were terrified, their legs were trembling, and their faces were pale. If it weren't for the 100 soldiers summoned by the reinforcement order, these soldiers would probably disperse like birds and beasts.

When Bang Zhou's army saw that Zijue was no more than 600 people in formation, he suddenly laughed, pointed to the other side of the Huaihe River and shouted to the left and right:
"There are hundreds of remnant soldiers in the area. Not only did they not bow their heads to surrender when they saw our Zhou Tianbing, they dared to resist? The [-] army of Yan Kingdom was defeated. What is the use of these hundreds of remnants? They are just a group of chickens and dogs. When the heavenly soldiers arrive, Kill them all!"

"The Yin thief offended the king and tried to rebel against the destiny, but he didn't know that the destiny was in Zhou, and all those who rebelled would be punished. Now, soldiers of the Great Zhou, take up your weapons and destroy the Yin thief! Bang Zhou Wannian!"

"Destroy the Yin thief! Bang Zhou Wannian!"

"Destroy the Yin thief! Bang Zhou Wannian!"

The army hurriedly marched fifty miles to the bank of the Huai River. Because he was eager to capture the remnants of the Yin and Shang soldiers, Shan Bo couldn't wait to cross the river.It's just that Shan Bo's actions played into Zhong Zijue's hands.

Although it was autumn, the flow of the Huai River was much less than that in summer, but it was still broad. Zhou Jun immediately sent out his men, felled wood to make boats, and began to cross the river.As for the [-] remnant soldiers on the other side of the river, not only Shanhou, but even ordinary Zhou soldiers didn't pay attention to them.

A mere six hundred, breaking it is effortless.

Seeing the arrival of Bangzhou's army, it was so dark that these remnant soldiers were directly defeated. If Zijue hadn't led the hundred people, these people would have fled in all directions on the spot, which is impossible.In this state, I am afraid that as soon as Zhou Jun arrived, these people would turn around and run away.

Thinking of this, Zijue immediately brought Yi to the crowd.

"What's your name?" Zijue asked a soldier who was still childish.This soldier looked about fifteen or sixteen years old at most.

"feather."

"Good name." Zijue said gently, "Are you afraid?"

"Not afraid!" The child's face was pale and his lips were trembling, but he still clenched his teeth and shouted triumphantly, there was still a hint of tremor in that slightly childish voice.

Zijue reached out and patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's not shameful to be afraid, even Gu is afraid."

Hearing this, Yu's expression was astonished, thinking that Zijue was comforting him, and even the soldiers around were also very surprised.

Zijue looked around for a week, and then shouted: "But is it useful to be afraid? Are we afraid that those Zhou troops will spare us?"

There was no sound in the army formation of hundreds of people, and Zijue's words were like ice, tearing their fantasies apart.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Zijue shouted again.

"Five years ago, during the Battle of Muye, Bang Zhou destroyed our homeland and turned our people into refugees!"

"But they can't bring us to our knees!"

"All the suffering we endure will make us stronger, stronger and more determined."

"Three years ago, in the hometown of Yin and Shang, Wu Geng was defeated. We lost many relatives and friends!"

"The country is shattered, and we lost our last home!"

"Today, on the banks of the Huai River, Zhou's army has arrived again, and behind us are our wives and children. Where can we retreat?"

"There is no way out!"

"People of the country, we have nowhere to go!"

"Today, I'm here with all of you, let's fight to the death!"

"At the end of the battle, it's time to fight to the death! The general who retreats first regardless of the army, beheaded, and the army who retreated first regardless of the general, the rear team will kill the front team! If you are alone in the front of the battle, if you retreat alone, please behead my head!"

"Your Majesty, don't do it!" Yi hurriedly dissuaded him when he heard this, and the surrounding soldiers also dissuaded him one after another.

"Clang!" Zijue pulled out his bronze sword in an instant, and shouted sharply, "Shut up! I've made up my mind. Anyone who dares to speak out will be dealt with by military law!"

"Yes!" Seeing Zijue like this, everyone dared not stop him.

Then Zijue looked at the remnant soldiers in front of him again, and shouted loudly: "The three armies obey the order. Those under the age of 16 should go out. If both father and son are in the army, the son should go out. If the brother is in the army, the younger brother should go out!"

As the voice fell, dozens of teenagers with childish faces walked out of the array.

Glancing at them, Zijue continued: "Anyone who goes out, stay in the barracks, and anyone who doesn't go out, listen to my orders! Let's go!"

"Your Majesty." At this moment, a person suddenly rushed in front of Zijue, knelt on his knees and said, "Your Majesty, please let your servants accompany you as guards!"

Zijue hurriedly helped him up, this person was Yu who had just turned pale with fright when he heard Zhou Guo's chasing soldiers coming.

"Yu, you are under 16, stay in the camp!"

"Your Majesty takes the lead, how dare your subordinates steal their lives, and ask your Majesty to let your subordinates go out with the army!" Before the words fell, dozens of people who had just stepped out of the surroundings knelt down and bowed to Zijue.

"Everyone, please rise up. The Yin and Shang have fallen, the Yan Kingdom has been destroyed, and the pursuers are approaching. We want to fight to the death, but there is no one to guard our families in the rear. You are either young and weak, or your father and brother are here and have already given their allegiance. Today we will You stay here to take care of your family members in the rear, if we come back and your family members have any questions, let me ask you!"

After finishing speaking, without waiting for his reply, he directly led people to the battlefield.

Seeing Zijue like this, the morale of the army was greatly boosted. At this moment, all the soldiers felt determined to die, and their eyes on Zhou Jun became more determined.

On the other side of the Huaihe River, Zhou Jun was ready to cross the river.

A large number of rafts were quickly pushed into the water, and dozens of hundreds of rafts began to cross the river.Zhou people started from Mount Qi, and they were good at herding horses, but they were not good at boats. Therefore, hundreds of rafts could not move forward at the same time, and many of them even drifted downstream.

It's just that Zhou Jun's morale was strong, and he didn't take these things to heart, and soon the first batch of Zhou Jun went ashore.

Seeing these Zhou troops who had just landed, their formation was scattered and their numbers were not many, Zijue took the lead and led a team to fight.Zhou Jun had just landed, hadn't gained a firm foothold, and regrouped, when he bumped into the soldiers led by Zijue and Yi head-on.

These soldiers are well-trained, coupled with the cooperation of the battle formation, it is not at all that the Zhou army who hastily assembled can resist.On the battlefield, personal bravery is important, but more important is well-trained and coordinated battle formation.

One side waited for work with leisure, and the battle formation was neat, while the other side was scattered and exhausted, and the result was self-evident.As soon as they made contact, Bangzhou's soldiers were defeated one after another, but in a blink of an eye, most of them were killed, and the rest were pushed into the Huai River. The Huai River is wide, and these people sank in just a moment.

Combat crossing a river has never been an easy task. If you don't have a firm foothold, you will attack halfway.These familiar methods simply don't need too much, not to mention that Zhou Jun marched fifty miles in a hurry in pursuit of the pursuit, without even eating, and directly felled wood to attack by boat across the river.

If the generals of the Zhou army were more cautious, took a break, or launched a multi-pronged attack, the war would be a little more variable, but this Danhou had already been dazzled by the temptation to feudalize the state and build a country, and launched an attack directly.

If everything goes well and morale is high, it will naturally be defeated, but if it cannot be done, it will be defeated in an instant.

Seeing Zhou Jun crossing the river with rafts in a mess, there was no way at all.Seeing Zhou Jun like this, Zijue immediately felt relieved.Immediately shouted to the surrounding soldiers: "Everyone, today is the day to defeat the enemy! Follow me!"

Zijue took the lead and rushed forward with hundreds of soldiers, while Yi led a few soldiers to guard closely.

Zijue's body is completely different from the abandoned house in his previous life. This body can be said to be unbelievably strong. The heavy bronze dagger is like a straw in his hands. His strength is as high as 81, which greatly increases his strength. There is no such thing as an enemy of ten thousand people like Xiang Yu, but it is still possible to have an enemy of 500 people.

Zijue's bronze spear swept across, and the sharp sound of breaking the wind pierced the eardrums. There was a muffled sound, and the Bangzhou soldier who had just raised his shield was knocked down by the huge force, and then he was beheaded with another spear .Seeing Zijue being so brave, the morale of these soldiers was high.

Originally, these Bangzhou soldiers were not prepared, but now they were defeated even faster, and most of them were killed like chopping melons and vegetables. For a while, blood flowed into the south bank of Huaihe River.

Soon the first batch of 500 people who crossed the river, except for [-]% who were killed, all the others were pushed back. There were countless casualties for a while, the Huai River was dyed red, and Zhou Jun's corpses floated on the Huai River.

Hundreds of Zhou troops were wiped out in less than a quarter of an hour, and seeing this situation, Shan Hou's face was extremely ugly.He finally realized that the defeat of the Yin merchants on the other side of the river was not simple, and it was likely to be a big fish.

Immediately, he was ready to send people to cut wood to make a boat again and continue to attack.

Just when he was about to order someone to cross the river from upstream and downstream at the same time, the lieutenant next to him hurried forward to dissuade him.

"Shanhou, our army has come here from afar. We have been defeated for a while, and our morale has been depressed. We have marched for fifty miles in a hurry, but we have no food, and the boats are all lost. The other party is waiting for work. If we continue to cut down wood to make a boat, we fear that the battle will be disadvantageous, and it is getting late. If you are not good at boating, how can you cross the river?"

After Shan Hou heard it, he looked up at the sky. At this time, it would be completely dark in the west of Jinwu in half an hour at most. He knew that he would not be able to cross the river today, so he had to arrange for people to set up camp, and prepared to take the sting out of the crowd tomorrow. All the Shang survivors were beheaded.

On the south bank of the Huai River, these Yin and Shang survivors were very happy to see the defeat of the Zhou army. It can be said that after the battle, Zijue has won the support of these people.

Zijue was also relieved to see that Zhou Jun set up camp and stopped attacking. Everything went according to his plan. He immediately turned on the system and chose to use the 【Rainstorm Card】.

Thirty miles upstream of the Huai River from the battlefield, at this time after a day of excavation, 'Zhu' was ready.

Zijue chose to rainstorm forty miles away from here. The time was extended to the longest day, and the rainfall was also the largest. The range of rainfall was twenty miles.This is also the maximum range of rainfall after Zijue adjusted the rainfall and time to the maximum.

After Zijue chose to use the rainstorm card, the upper reaches of the Huai River were originally clear, but suddenly there was a gust of wind on the flat ground, and then the dark clouds gathered, but in the blink of an eye, the sky was covered with dark clouds, and the next second it poured down It rained heavily.

'Zhu' led everyone to stare dumbfounded at the sudden heavy rain in front of them. The rain was astonishingly heavy. In just a short while, the ground began to converge into water flowing into the Huaihe River. What is even more surprising is that only After a distance of about fifty steps, he didn't even have a drop of rain here!

Seeing such a strange scene, everyone immediately realized that this was God's help, and everyone's morale was immediately boosted. This is the fate of Shang.

Soon as night fell, Zijue summoned the survivors of the Yin and Shang dynasties and asked them to lift all the rafts and boats to a high place, and everyone gathered in a high place.

Zijue gathered the people together and said to them: "He was born as a black bird, descended to give birth to Shang, and the Western Zhou Dynasty was despicable. He took advantage of my army's eastward march and destroyed my homeland. Today, I have received instructions from the heavens. Tonight, there will be heavy rain on the Huai River in the upper reaches. Until, when the Huai River bursts, this battle must be won!"

Hearing Zijue's words, everyone was skeptical. Zijue saw it and didn't say anything. He just asked people to be careful so as not to be washed away by the flood.

Sure enough, it didn't take long before news came from Zhu, which was arranged upstream by Wang Jue, that there was heavy rain, and the water in the Huaihe River was swollen visible to the naked eye.There was so much rain that even the oldest person had never seen such a heavy rain, and what was even more strange was that there was not even a drop of rain falling within thirty miles upstream.

Among the survivors of the Yin and Shang Dynasties, everyone realized that God had really sent down a torrential rain to help the battle, and the already high morale had suddenly risen to the extreme. Everyone believed that the Lord Zijue was favored by God because of God's destiny, and God did not give up. them
How can such a torrential rain be explained if it is not God's help?

-

In the third year of Wang Wang, Wu Geng was defeated, King Jue was in trouble in the Huai River, Zhou Jun arrived, King Jue remained calm in the face of danger, and took the lead.At night, when it rained heavily, King Jue dug the Huai River, flooded the Zhou army, and the Zhou army collapsed. This is not destiny. ——"Historical Records Yin Ji"
