Laozi, the Great Supreme Being

Chapter 908: The disaster is diverted to the east, Shang Tang enters summer

Time flies, the years are like a shuttle.

An unforeseen severe drought occurred without warning in the land of humans. The rivers dried up, fish and shrimp were cut off, and the grain harvest was even worse.

This resulted in starvation and death in various regions, and a serious survival crisis occurred for the human race.

As the human emperor, Xia Jie also felt the seriousness of the matter and temporarily left Jiuchiroulin to discuss with the surrounding ministers how to let the human race survive such a crisis.

All the officials in the court bowed their heads and remained silent. Human Emperor Xia Jie did not change his violent temper and spoke loudly with big eyes.

"If we can't think of a good way to solve the plight of the human race, we will kill all the ministers present to express gratitude to the world."

The ministers were frightened, their faces turned pale, and they felt that a disaster was coming.

Zhao Liang, Xia Jie's favorite minister, was also there. He didn't want to die in vain, so he frowned and took it to heart, hoping to divert the trouble to the east.

"Human Emperor, I do have a plan. I wonder what the Human Emperor thinks?"

Zhao Liang came out and said to Human Emperor Xia Jie.

"Oh, I don't know what method Aiqing has thought of. Please tell me quickly. If it works, I will be rewarded."

Human Emperor Xia Jie asked slightly impatiently.

"Reporting to the Emperor, I heard that the leader of the Yin Shang tribe, Shang Tang, was the reincarnation of a divine dragon. When he was born, he showed various strange phenomena. Heavy rains within the Yin Shang tribe have not stopped for several months, and many properties have been submerged. , it would be better to let Shang Tang from the Yin Shang tribe come to the palace to be responsible for praying for rain, it will definitely work."

Zhao Liang expressed his opinion cautiously.

When the Human Emperor Xia Jie heard this, his face was gloomy and he spoke after a long while.

"I had several strange dreams a few years ago. I fought with a monster with a dragon head and a snake body, and was ultimately defeated. The end was miserable. Every time I think about it, I still have lingering fears."

"Could it be that this Shang Tang is my enemy? Regardless of whether he is or not, we must be careful and guard against him from now on."

"To inform the Emperor, the leader of the Yin Shang tribe has long been disobedient and has been secretly expanding his power. It would be better to send troops to capture him as soon as possible and avoid a major disaster."

Some ministers came out to give advice.

"This is a very good plan. In the name of letting Shang Tang pray for rain, if he comes to the palace and dares to find an excuse to resist, he will be killed together!!!" Human Emperor Xia Jie finally issued the order.

But before the Emperor Xia Jie took any measures, a rebellion among the princes occurred, which temporarily disrupted his plan.

A small human tribe, the Min clan, couldn't stand the human emperor Xia Jie's bandit-like demands for property. It was a year of severe drought and they couldn't pay enough tribute. They couldn't bear it and openly launched a rebellion.

After careful consideration, the Human Emperor Xia Jie decided to attack the Youmin tribe first and then compete with the Yin and Shang tribes.

It took almost all the elite human warriors of the Xia clan to completely conquer the Youmin clan. After this brutal battle, all the elite warriors of the Xia clan were killed or injured.

The Human Emperor Xia Jie was furious and decided to take revenge on this disobedient tribe to demonstrate the Human Emperor's majesty.

An order was issued to kill all the human men in the Youmin tribe who were taller than a car beam, regardless of good or bad, and escort all the female relatives, regardless of gender, old or young, to the Human Palace. The pretty ones could be left behind. Harem. The remainder is distributed to the human soldiers who have made meritorious service in battle.

The situation of the human race showed no sign of easing the contradictions due to the iron-blooded strategy of the Human Emperor Xia Jie. Instead, it became increasingly chaotic.

Many human tribes were frightened by the tyrannical nature of the Human Emperor Xia Jie, and were deeply afraid that their tribes would be annihilated next, so they secretly surrendered to the Yin Shang tribe and honored the leader of the Yin Shang tribe, Shang Tang, as their leader. Co-leader.

The changes in the surrounding small tribes were finally noticed by the Human Emperor Xia Jie. In order to monitor the movements of the Yin Shang tribe, he summoned the three major tribes that supported him and divided them into horns to station themselves around the Yin Shang tribe.

Shang Tang was greatly worried, but he did not act rashly. Instead, he temporarily ignored the threats from the three major tribes and focused on annexing the other weak tribes.

He successively conquered eleven vassal tribes that did not obey the Yin and Shang tribes, and gained a great reputation.

The reputation of being invincible in the world spreads out.

The Pengwei tribe, Jigu tribe, and Jikunwu tribe who were responsible for monitoring the Yin and Shang tribes were greatly frightened. They all reported the recent developments of the Yin Shang Dynasty to the Emperor Xia Jie.

After discussion with his ministers Yi Yin and Zhong Hui, Shang Tang decided to remove these three thorns in the flesh.

Just when Shang Tang was ready to take action, the Human Emperor Xia Jie got the news and knew that Shang Tang continued to attack and annex small tribes to expand his power. He was very angry and listened to his ministers' advice and had patience. , let a minister pretend to be an envoy on a mission to the Yin Shang tribe, and invite him to go to the Human Emperor's Palace to meet with the Emperor to discuss how the human race can survive the current difficulty of the human race, which is drought and no rain.

Shang Tang weighed the pros and cons and knew that he was not the opponent of the Human Emperor Xia Jie for the time being. He could only go to the Human Emperor Palace with the envoy to meet the Human Emperor Xia Jie.
