"Master! Send an order from the court to return to the military camp immediately and prepare for the expedition." Quan quickly came to the study and said to Zhen.

After hearing this, Zhuan immediately stood up and said, "Go and ask Yuan to get ready, and ask my personal guards to wait for me at the door."

After saying that, he walked towards the backyard.

As soon as he arrived at the backyard, he saw Ling walking towards him and said, "Husband, are you about to start your journey now?"

Zhu looked at Ling and said softly: "Madam, don't worry, you also know my strength. The person in this world who can kill me is already dead." Then he looked at Ling's belly and said:

"I'm not at home. You must take good care of yourself. If you have any troubles, just ask Su. In addition, I want to say sorry to you. I can't be with you at your most important moment. Please You must forgive me."

Ling grabbed Zhen's hands and said: "Husband, please go to war with peace of mind. I am not an ordinary weak woman. You have me at home, so you can rest assured. The sword has no eyes on the battlefield. You must take good care of yourself. I don't want children." As soon as I came out, my father was gone."

Seeing this, Zhuan said: "You will get the title of a real man immediately. Don't worry, I will definitely raise the lintel of our family during this expedition and let others know that you did not marry the wrong person."

After saying that, he turned around and left firmly. After getting on the horse, Zhu turned to Su and said, "Su, I am about to go on an expedition. Everything in my family depends on you. My wife is giving birth. I am very worried. I want to ask you for help." , move your wife to Ling’s yard and ask her to take good care of Ling.”

After hearing this, Su bowed to Zhuo Zuo who was standing on his side and said: "Master, please rest assured, I will definitely guard the door of the house. In addition, I will immediately ask Zhuo Jing to move to the attached courtyard so that she can take care of my wife wholeheartedly."

After hearing Su's reply, Yan nodded with relief and immediately took Yuan and five personal guards to the military camp.

March 3, the fourth year of the reign of King

Ji Dan took the oath for the Eastern Campaign in the outskirts of Fengyi.

"Soldiers of the Zhou Kingdom, King Wu led us from here seven years ago, crossed the Luoshui River, crossed the Yellow River, and fought against the powerful Shang Dynasty in Muye. After a fierce and bloody battle, we finally defeated the powerful Shang Dynasty. dynasty.

Today, the bones of King Wu are still looking at us on the high mountain. However, the greedy Uncle Guan and others united the remnants of the Yin Shang and launched a rebellion. This is not allowed by our noble and powerful Zhou people.

We were able to defeat them seven years ago, but can’t we defeat them today? I think not, so I think we will definitely win this time. Soldiers, hold on to your guns and your shields. Let us cross the Luoshui River, cross the Yellow River, fight in the fields, and fight in the mountains and forests. Fight, fight in the city.

We have to fight to the end of the land, to the place where there are no remnants of the Yin and Shang Dynasties, let them know the price of betraying the Zhou people, let them carve the word Zhou people in their flesh and blood, let them hear the word Zhou people Just tremble, soldiers! Zhou people will win! "

When the soldiers in the audience heard this, they shouted with enthusiasm: "Power! Power! Power!"

April 12, the fourth year of the reign of King
The army passed by Luoyi, which was under construction
May 4, the fourth year of the reign of the king

The Eastern Expedition army arrived at Makino.

He looked at this place that was both familiar and unfamiliar to him. He was here seven years ago, but his identity had changed drastically. Seven years ago, he was a slave in the Shang army. Seven years later, he was the brigade commander in the Zhou army. He had 500 soldiers, five chariots, and his own retainers under his command. , personal guard.

I was able to win seven years ago, and I will definitely win this time.

----

The Eastern Expedition Zhou Army and the rebel Yin Army faced off at the old battlefield of Muye. The originally fertile land turned into a bare battlefield. I believe the harvest here will be higher next year.

The Zhou army dispatched five armies, totaling 62,500 men. Among them, there are 625 chariots, and the sergeants are all wearing armor and carrying elite troops. They are all elites selected by the Zhou Dynasty.

Looking at the rebels, although the army has a large number of more than 200,000, each army has its own affiliation, the flags are unclear, and the equipment is uneven. Some military formations even have no armor. There are many types of chariots, some large and some small, and the number is also extremely rare, with about three hundred chariots.

Ji Dan looked at the rebel camp from a distance and said to Taigong Wang next to him:

"Father, it is unwise not to use talented people when they are available. Your military ability is unparalleled in the world. This has been proven by both King Wen and King Wu. Therefore, I request you to command this battle. Please look at me. Let’s do our best to face the situation.”

Taigongwang agreed and immediately boarded the command chariot.

Taigongwang divided the entire Zhou army into three armies: left, center and right, and appointed three capable generals to take temporary command. He gathered all the chariots and placed them on the left army, because the right side was close to the Yellow River. He placed three thousand tiger soldiers beside him as a reserve force.

The war begins.

The soldiers of the three armies of the Zhou army advanced towards the rebels. Every time they took four or five steps, they would stop and reorganize their ranks after six or seven steps. They saw the yellow sand stirred up by the army filling the sky, and the gold and silver like a forest. When the Zhou army was so close that the rebels were only seven or eight steps away, the rebels became a little panicked.

However, they still did not collapse under the pressure of the rebel supervisors. Seeing this situation, Uncle Guan decisively issued Wu Geng's order: whoever kills one person will be rewarded with ten gold coins, whoever kills five people will be promoted to one rank, and whoever kills ten people will be given a reward. A hundred acres of land must be commanded.

The rebels finally calmed down after hearing the high reward. After a while, the two armies met, and the sound of the collision of weapons, the roar of the soldiers, and the screams of the wounded gradually sounded on the battlefield.

After about half an hour, the two armies were already in a stalemate. Taigong Wang asked the right army to maintain its formation and gradually retreat a hundred steps or so. He asked the two armies to pay attention to making up the interface, and from time to time sent a soldier with a hundred men and tigers to support the right army.

When he saw that the battle line gradually formed a diagonal line tilting to the right, he ordered the left army to open its mouth, and then sent more than 600 tanks assembled in the left army to rush towards the rebel right army, and the infantry followed the tanks to cover them up. . The rebel right army watched the enemy in front of them keep retreating. While he was still happy, he suddenly saw the dark tank approaching towards him. His face suddenly turned pale. Those who reacted quickly ran towards the back quickly, while those who reacted slowly ran towards the back. He was still scared to the spot, unable to move.

Wherever the chariot passed, flesh and blood flew everywhere, like a skin scraper plowing a red road.

After a while, the Zhou army had surrounded the rebels.

The current situation is that more than 50,000 Zhou troops surround hundreds of thousands of rebels on the edge of the Yellow River. Behind the rebels is the turbulent Yellow River. However, when the battle reached this point, both sides were exhausted and couldn't hold their weapons.

At this time, Taigong saw that the time had come, so he sent three thousand tiger warriors to the stage and rushed towards Uncle Guan and other rebels' command post with all their strength.

Most of the soldiers in the right army where Zhen was located were already somewhat exhausted, but Zhen's condition was still very good because of his reservations, including Yuan and five personal guards.

Seeing Huben on the stage, Zhu knew that the war had advanced to the last moment. He decisively selected more than fifty warriors from his Lu family who still had physical strength and strength. Including himself and his retainers and generals, there were a total of sixty people. Equipped with the sharpest weapons and the strongest armor of the brigade, he said to them:

"Warriors, the war has reached the last moment. We are already in sight of victory, but we have not yet achieved the military success of raising our family's lintel. Isn't it a pity? So I decided to fight out and saw the tallest banner (dà) on the opposite side. dào)?
That is our military exploits. Warriors, are you willing to work with me to win the military exploits that will make you famous all over the world? "

More than fifty people shouted with all their strength: "I am willing to charge into the battle with the general!"

Seeing that his morale was available, he was the first to kill the rebels in the direction of Dahu, and shouted:
"Today, follow me to kill the generals and seize the flag, and achieve unparalleled achievements!"

At the rebel command podium, Uncle Guan, Uncle Cai and others were very anxious. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that they were about to lose, so Uncle Guan said to everyone:

"Everyone, you have seen the situation, and I have no choice. Everyone, please go back to your camp, break out of the siege, return to your respective kingdoms, and recruit new soldiers. You also know that this time the Zhou Dynasty will not He will never let us go again, as long as he remains useful, we still have a chance."

After saying that, he ignored everyone and took the lead to leave the high platform and walk towards his own army. Seeing this, the other princes had no choice but to return to camp and prepare to break out. After a while, the rebels poured out many small groups of effective forces from all directions, and they broke through in one fell swoop. The exhausted Zhou army line fled towards the outside of the encirclement.

The Huben clan also killed the large banner, but there were not many people guarding the large banner. Soon they cut down the large banner, and the morale of the merchant army collapsed immediately. Some surrendered, and some tried to break out but were strangled. Suddenly, the battlefield was on the battlefield. It's a mess.

Zhuang was about to kill Da Zhen when he saw Da Zhen fall down. He was initially discouraged when he suddenly saw a strong armed squad of more than 300 people escorting the nobles on three chariots towards the outside of the encirclement. He suddenly understood that it was a big fish, so he led his subordinates to kill it.

Guan Shu originally saw that the Zhou army had tigers in the center, the left army had chariots, and only the right army had no strong troops, so he decisively led Uncle Cai and Wu Geng to kill outside the encirclement of the Zhou army's right army. Suddenly, there was a small team of Zhou army behind them. A fierce general led them to kill him. In a panic, he asked Uncle Cai and Wu Geng to escape separately.

Seeing the three chariots escaping separately, Zhi asked Yuan to lead a large group of warriors to kill one chariot, while he led three personal guards to kill the other two. Seeing that a chariot was about to go far, he immediately took off the bow he was carrying and shot three arrows at the noble farthest from him. He asked the remaining three guards to verify the noble's life and death, and then he personally shot towards the noble. Kill the noble closest to you.

There was no enemy under him, so he quickly reached the noble chariot. He jumped onto the chariot and slashed at the noble with his sword. The noble shouted loudly:

"I'm in charge of S..." He was killed with a sword.

Zhuan looked at the nobleman who fell at his feet and muttered: "What are you talking about? I'm sorry, I didn't hear you clearly."

Then he carried the head and killed the other rebels. After a while, three personal guards came, bringing with them the noble who was hit by three arrows in the back. After a while, Yuan also came back, and he tied a noble with a rope. Pushing it over, he shouted excitedly:
"Master, you caught a big fish!"

As he walked in, he heard the noble shouting: "I am Cai Shudu, Ji Dan's younger brother. Don't kill me randomly."

He immediately threw the head he was holding over and asked his bodyguard to move the body that had been hit by an arrow so that he could identify it.

Uncle Cai saw the head on the ground. He couldn't see it clearly at first, but then he took a closer look. He cried loudly and wanted to move forward, but because he was trapped by the rope, he tripped and fell to the ground. He cried loudly on the ground. :

"Brother! Why did you leave! How could you just let Du Renren survive in this world!"

When Yuan heard what Uncle Cai said, he immediately asked people to move the corpses on the chariot over, and then asked people to surround the place. Then he asked Yuan to immediately go to the commander-in-chief, Wang Shufeng, and tell him everything here. . After doing all this, he held his sword and waited for Uncle Wang to come over.

May 4, the fourth year of the reign of the king

During the Eastern Expedition, the Zhou army and the Yin Shang rebels fought at the old battlefield of Muye. The rebels were defeated and most of the Yin Shang vassal states and tribal leaders related to the Yin Shang fled. However, the Zhou army achieved the most important results, among which Huo Uncle surrendered on his own initiative, Uncle Cai was captured, and Uncle Guan and Wu Geng were killed.

When he was young, he decided to rule the world at the beginning of the Zhou Dynasty.

Guan Shu and Cai Shu's brothers suspected Zhou Gong and made a rebellion with Wu Geng. They came to Zhou Dynasty. Duke Zhou was ordered by King Cheng to kill Wu Geng and Uncle Guan, and free Uncle Cai. After the Yin Dynasty was replaced by Qi Dynasty, the country was in the Song Dynasty.
