Rebirth of the Great Desolation: I am Red Cloud

Chapter 116 Frozen Qishan
Huang Feihu voted for Xiqi, and was granted the title of King Wucheng who founded the country. He did not worship the king, nor entered the palace. He was in charge of Xiqi's 40 soldiers and horses. It can be said that he was under one man and above tens of thousands. , quickly spread in the human world.

All of a sudden, there was a lot of talk, and they had everything they wanted to say. Some people commented: "The king of Yin Zhou was licentious and immoral, so that Huang Feihu and other important officials of the country all defected to Xiqi, and the [-] princes belonging to the Yin and Shang dynasties rebelled. The [-] princes on the southeast second road and the Beihai area were already in chaos after Yuan Futong's toss. Many small princes died and fled. Even in Chaoge, he was as promiscuous day and night as King Zhou, and nothing could happen. Only this Xiqi, although he did not raise the flag to protest, dared to accommodate Chaoge's rebels, which was no different from rebellion. Therefore, the Yin and Shang Dynasties The calculation of Qi is exhausted, and death will only come sooner or later."

Some people also said: "Huang Feihu rebelled against Chaoge, and his crime should be punished. It is a pity that the seventh generation of the Huang family was loyal and good, and finally died in Huang Feihu's hands. It is a great treason and immorality for Xiqi to house the rebels of the court. Chaoge should recognize it." Xiqi has an evil heart, and marched into Xiqi to protect the central government."

Others said: "Xiqi Ji made herself the king of Wu, reused Jiang Shang and Huang Feihu, and her wings are already full. The excavation of Xiqi is a foregone conclusion. The dead merchant must belong to Xiqi."

Regardless of what others say, Xiqi took Huang Feihu in and put him to good use. Jiang Shang completely handed over the military power to Huang Feihu, and he concentrated on managing political affairs. , all kinds of production are carried out in an orderly manner, and the development is more rapid.

At the same time, King Wu and Jiang Shang attracted talents from all walks of life, and the goal of being a daughter of gold was also achieved. Seeing that Xi Qi was an important talent, heroes from all walks of life rushed to Xi Qi, wanting to win a fortune, and many of them were originally Huang Feihu. Huang Feihu, Fang Bi and Fang Xiang brothers, who were originally the generals of King Zhou, were dissatisfied with King Zhou's murder of Queen Jiang and Yin Jiao, Yin Jiao, and Yin Shang. His Royal Highness Hong escaped from Chaoge and lived in seclusion. At this time, he heard that Huang Feihu had voted for Xiqi, and he also came to Xiqi; there were also brothers Chao Tian and Chao Lei, who were formerly General Yousheng of Yin Shang, and they were King Zhou's personal bodyguards. He is also the one who has seen King Zhou do the most bad things. He felt that it would be better to resign if he was an innocent and foolish king, so he resigned and brought his family to join Xiqi. Jiang Shang had no doubts about these capable old Yin and Shang officials All of them are accepted one by one, and based on their skills and abilities, they are given reasonable arrangements according to their strengths, whether they serve in the army or in politics.

Huang Feihu is also really talented. With decades of experience in the military, the title of King Wucheng of Zhen Guo was not blown out. After taking over the military power of Xiqi, he carried out some reforms to address the existing problems. After a period of digestion and absorption , The number of generals in Xiqi has reached several thousand, and the number of soldiers and horses has increased by another 20. Moreover, the quality of soldiers and generals has been greatly improved, and their strength has also increased greatly.

Xiqi's momentum has become very strong. Chaoge, especially Wen Zhong, is very worried. The Beihai area has just recovered and has not been cleaned up. The Southeast Second Road is completely reversed. Huan, together with E Chongyu, the son of Nan Bohou, attacked Sanshan Pass and Youhun Pass day and night. Only this Xiqi, although Ji Fa made himself king and appointed Jiang Shang, did not explicitly say that he rebelled. , In addition, Wen Zhong believes that the Yin and Shang are now troubled, and the North Sea has just been restored, and the Southeast Second Road has kept him busy. If Xiqi, the strongest, is added, then the Yin and Shang are really hopeless, so Wen Zhong was unwilling to admit the fact that Xiqi had rebelled from the bottom of his heart, thinking that as long as Xiqi did not raise the flag of rebellion, there was still room for him to fight. What he did was undoubtedly a slap in the face of Wen Zhong, which woke Wen Zhong from his confusion, and he was very angry.

There is no way to get angry, the situation is not as good as others, this is an indisputable fact, Wen Zhong gritted his teeth secretly, intending to solve the Dongnan Erlu, and then slowly clean up Xiqi after freeing up his hands, but right now he can't just let Xiqi be so nonsense Go down, you have to send some soldiers and horses, let's give a warning, just don't fight with Xiqi, the army will stand by the side of Qishan, suppress Xiqi's momentum, and watch Xiqi's movements. There was preparation when the incident broke out, so troops had to be sent to Xiqi.

Wen Zhong made up his mind to send troops to Xiqi, but he lived on the second southeast road of Chaoge Duzhan, so he really couldn't get away, and Huang Feihu, the only one in the court who could control the overall situation, turned against him, and the other generals were distributed to guard the five passes Everywhere, there is a real lack of handsome talents in Chaoge, who should be sent in this situation, thinking of this, King Zhou gritted his teeth in hatred, on the one hand, he hated King Zhou for being immoral and lost the hearts of the people, on the other hand, he hated Huang Feihu Waiting for the generals, there is no loyalty, but just hate can not solve the problem, you have to find the leader who goes to Xiqi, Wen Zhong thought about it, thought about the generals in the court one by one, and finally decided to let the old general Lu Xiong He led his troops to visit Xiqi. In addition, he asked Fei Zhong and You Hun, two courtiers, to join the army and go with them, so as not to be surrounded by King Zhou all day long, confusing the king and doing no good. ,
The order was issued soon, and Lu Xiong, Fei Zhong, and You Hun led an army of [-] and set off in a mighty manner. It was already summer, and the weather was extremely hot. The soldiers wore armor and marched against the scorching sun. From time to time, some people fainted due to heatstroke, and there were many soldiers who were born in Chaoge and grew up in Chaoge. As soon as they left their homeland, they became dissatisfied with the water and soil, vomiting and diarrhea, their limbs became weak, and they could not walk. Lu Xiong had no choice but to arrange temporarily Many vehicles drove these soldiers forward, so the marching speed of the army was very slow.

It’s okay to say that the weather is hot and the climate is not acclimatized, but the ones who make Lu Xiong most angry are Fei Zhong and You Hun. These two are officials, and they are courtiers. They are good at it, but letting the two of them travel with the army, and suffering from such a rush, will kill them. In addition to the hot weather, the two of them always put forward many demands to Lu Xiong. Why did they get up too early? The food was too bad, the weather was too hot, etc., all kinds of things, which made Lu Xiong very annoying, but Lu Xiong knew that the two of them were very good at playing tricks, and their words were very important in front of King Zhou. He was old and could ignore it. But he couldn't help thinking about his nephews and family members, so he carefully accompanied them along the way, and patiently comforted them. The two ordered a closed caravan, bought several maikos, and asked the quartermaster to prepare wine and meat for the two, let the two live in the caravan, let the maikos play with the two, let alone this trick Fortunately, Fei Zhong and You Hun stayed in the caravan drinking and having fun every day since then, and they never made trouble with Lu Xiong again.

After comforting Fei Zhong and You Hun, Lu Xiong was finally able to concentrate on leading the army forward. After more than two months, the army finally arrived at Qishan Mountain. At this time, it was almost the Mid-Autumn Festival. Lu Xiong set up camp at the foot of Qishan Mountain and sent many spies to investigate Regarding the movement in Xiqi, Lu Xiong originally thought that Chaoge's army had arrived, and that Xiqi would be mobilizing troops and horses, waiting for the formation, but according to the spies' report, the four gates of Xiqi City were wide open, and there were only a few defenders on the city wall. Some daring spies saw that there was nothing unusual about Xiqi, so they went into the city and walked around. They also saw that the city was full of traffic and business, and it was very prosperous. Xiong analyzed the spy's report, and fell into deep thought. It is impossible for Xiqi to be ignorant of the [-]-strong army, but Xiqi was defenseless. Could it be that Xiqi really rebelled, but if there is no rebellion, Why did Ji Fa establish himself as king, appointed Jiang Shang to reform the military and government, and took in Huang Feihu and other Chaoge rebels? Was it just for Huang Feihu?Lu Xiong couldn't figure it out, so he put down his thinking, and after inspecting the camps, he lay down with his clothes on, and planned to go to Xiqi City tomorrow to ask Ji Fa to clarify.

Lu Xiong was confused, but Xiqi Jiangshang was not. As early as Lu Xiong's army had just set off, Xiqi's spies in Chaoge sent back the news, especially when they heard that Fei Zhong, You Hun and the generals from all walks of life in Xiqi called for the battle one after another, especially the dozens of sons of King Wen who practiced martial arts. It is King Wen who was often bullied by two people in court songs, and King Wen's eldest son, Bo Ji Kao, died at the hands of two people. King Wen had a hundred sons, half of whom practiced literature and half practiced martial arts. He came to his door, how could he not avenge the great revenge of humiliating his father and killing his brother, so everyone asked for a fight.

Jiang Shang was deeply excited when he saw the people actively asking for battle. The generals galloped on the battlefield and were not afraid of powerful enemies in order to defend their homes and the country. Such people are so popular. Now Xiqi has undergone a series of reforms and developments. The politics is clear and the military is tough. The economy is prosperous, and the food and grass are sufficient to support the struggle with Chaoge. The teacher Yuanshi sage also said that Fengming Qishan was the time when the Western Zhou Dynasty took power. Compensate for the prehistoric luck, so that he can become a god. When fighting, there will be experts who will come to help Xiqi, so that he doesn't have to worry.

Jiang Shang slowly thought about it, calmed down his excitement, and made up his mind to fight Chaoge, but Chaoge's army of [-] was overwhelming, and if there was a slight difference, it would be a flash of swords and swords, causing countless deaths and injuries. King Wen entrusted himself to be his chancellor and was in charge of the military and government affairs. Just look at Xiqi's development over the years. You don't need to elaborate on it yourself. All the officials and common people have seen it. It's military affairs, but Xiqi has never had any wars, and he has never used it himself. The opportunity is to take advantage of the [-] troops to consolidate their position in Xiqi and suppress the voices of opposition. Therefore, this battle must be fought, not only fought, but also won, and it must be won completely.

Jiang Shang asked Huang Feihu about Lu Xiong's situation in detail, especially Lu Xiong's habit of leading troops. He looked at the map of Xiqi quietly, and finally set his sights on Mount Qi. After a quick brainstorm, he immediately With an idea, he comforted all the generals who asked for the battle, and asked everyone to go back and wait patiently. After an altar was built, there was no movement, not even a single person was added to the city defense, and the generals who kept making noise looked suspicious, but they couldn't answer.

In this way, Xiqi waited for more than two months, and finally waited for the arrival of Lu Xiong's army. After Lu Xiong's army set up their camp, Jiang Shang smiled. This Lu Xiong really set up a camp at the foot of Qishan just as he expected. , so, it's Lu Xiong's death, so don't blame Jiang Shang for being jealous. That night, Jiang Shang first strictly ordered the Xiqi army not to leave the camp without orders, and then asked the quartermaster to put down a cotton coat and a bamboo hat for the soldiers guarding the four cities , as a spare, all the soldiers didn't know what the prime minister meant, and they didn't dare to ask, so they quietly accepted it.

After finishing everything, Jiang Shang called Huang Feihu and told him to personally lead troops to guard the four city gates, but he quietly went to the top of Qishan with General Nan Gongshi and hundreds of soldiers. The top of the mountain had already been repaired. On the altar, Jiang Shang came to the altar, held a sharp sword, let loose his hair, bowed down in the direction of Kunlun Mountain, muttered words, prayed to the sage of Yuanshi, and then spread the Seven Star Gangdou, practiced five elements, and said Explaining the Mental Spirit Chapter, Sprinkling Yuxu Fushui, Jiang Shang didn't learn anything else in Kunlun, but he learned a lot about the Five Elements Escape and the Five Thunders. Although the Five Thunders are not in the immortal way, they can call the wind and the rain, waiting to read the formula Afterwards, a bright cloud floated from nowhere in the sky, covering Qishan Mountain tightly, and suddenly the wind blew up, roaring through the trees, and the soldiers who came with Jiang Shang felt that it was difficult to open their eyes, the wind was getting stronger and stronger, Slowly, it made people feel chilly, and finally, snowflakes fluttered and fell. The snow fell bigger and bigger, like goose feathers, densely layered, and the weather was getting colder and colder. The howling north wind, accompanied by heavy snow goose feathers , It's like the cold winter.

Jiang Shang's soldiers were all wearing cotton-padded clothes and bamboo hats, and they were not afraid of the severe cold, but Lu Xiong's [-] troops were in iron armor and single-clothed. The bigger the blowing, the heavier the snow fell, the fire was doused out by the heavy snow, the [-] army could no longer support it, and Lu Xiong camped in the valley at the foot of the mountain, the heavy snow fell with the wind Here, the entire camp was buried tightly. It snowed heavily for a day and a night. Jiang Shang felt that it was almost done. With such heavy snow, Chaoge's army must have no fighting power anymore. Therefore, he swung his sword and fired a talisman to remove the five thunders. Fa-rectification, the cloud cleared away, and a round of red sun appeared in the sky again. People were lazily illuminated by the scorching light. Under the sunlight, the snow water quickly turned into water and flowed into the valley. At Lu Xiong's camp.

After the snow was completely cleared, Jiang Shang cast the spell again, but this time there was no snow, only wind, but it was extremely cold, bone-piercingly cold, and in a short while, the extremely low temperature froze the entire Qishan Mountain into one piece Da Bingtuo, in this way, most of Lu Xiong's [-] troops were frozen to death. Those who survived were not much better. Limbs were weak, top-heavy, frostbitten all over, and they couldn't even stand still, let alone fight. See Qishan was hardened by the cold, Jiang Shang received the spell, and ordered Nangong Shi to lead hundreds of soldiers into the camp of Lu Xiong's middle army, and captured Lu Xiong, Fei Zhong and You Hun into Xiqi City , to offer sacrifices to King Wen and Bo Ji to test the spirits in heaven.

In this way, Jiang Shang wiped out Lu Xiong's [-] troops without a single soldier. The prelude to the killing and calamity of heaven and earth kicked off, and the battle of the Conferred Gods started vigorously. The gods, humans and ghosts of heaven and earth, the feathers and feathers, and all kinds of things in the week and sky were all involved in this killing and calamity.
