Chapter 1570 The horse is like the wind, the halberd is like a dragon(1/2)

Thanks: Brother ‘08a’ for the reward, thank you Xia Tian.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

The Yin and Shang army passed through Yulong Valley and then passed Yanshan Mountain after half a month's march.

During this half month, it was not as smooth sailing as before, with not a single Xiqi rebel in sight. Instead, we were constantly harassed by the Xiqi rebels.

The Xiqi rebels were also slick. They all attacked with light cavalry. A thousand light cavalry formed a team, mainly for harassment. They used horse power to increase the range of their bows and arrows. They shot arrows from a distance. When the Yin and Shang cavalry attacked, they immediately hit the horses and left. Never.

Confronted head-on with the rebel army.

The angry "Huang Feihu" and other generals often cursed.

However, 'Huang Shaohong' was interesting to see. Those Xiqi light cavalry did not wear armor and went into battle lightly. They came and went like the wind. They had a shadow of the later Mongolian and Yuan 'cavalry tactics'.

There are also some Taizu-like guerrilla tactics of retreating when the enemy advances, advancing when the enemy retreats, and harassing the enemy when they are stationed.

Although ‘Huang Shaohong’ found it interesting, he was not worried at all, because harassment was harassment after all, and could not stop the advancement of the millions of rebellious troops. The more the enemy behaved like this, the more guilty they were.

However, despite this, the enemy harassed him so unscrupulously, "Huang Shaohong" also felt that he should teach the opponent some lessons. He released the "Golden Winged Dapeng" and let it transform into the size of an ordinary golden eagle to detect the enemy's situation within thousands of miles and lock the enemy's movements.

Then, together with the generals such as "Master Wen" and "Huang Feihu", they set up pocket formations in advance. When Xiqi's Qingqi entered the urn, they surrounded them behind closed doors and beat the dogs.

After wiping out seven or eight thousand-man troops in this way, such harassment became less frequent.

After leaving the boundary of Yanshan Mountain, we walked for half a month to the boundary of Qishan Mountain. It is said to be the boundary of Qishan Mountain, but in fact it is still far away. From there, it is still three thousand miles to the foot of Qishan Mountain.

The reason why it is considered to be the Qishan Mountain boundary so far away is because this is not the Qishan Mountain on the earth, but the Qishan Mountain on the ancient land. The area is naturally ten times and a hundred times larger.

The horizon of this world is not arc-shaped like the earth, but all the mountains, rivers, and wastelands are located on a flat, primitive land.

Therefore, although they were three thousand miles apart, with Huang Shaohong's eyesight, after leaving Yanshan Mountain, he could still see from a distance a mountain peak that reached into the sky three thousand miles away.

‘Master Wen’ pointed to the mountain peak in the distance and introduced it to ‘Huang Shaohong’: “Your Majesty, that’s Qishan Mountain!”

‘Huang Shaohong’ narrowed his eyes slightly: ‘Which Qishan is Fengming Qishan?”

'Master Wen' nodded and said: "Exactly!"

‘Huang Shaohong’ didn’t quite understand this allusion to Xiqi, so he asked in surprise:

"Master, do you know what is going on in Fengming Qishan? As far as I know, the Feng clan has migrated to overseas fairy mountains to live in the fairy mountains after the Dragon and Phoenix Tribulation. It has also been seen in Dongtian Paradise. Is there really a phoenix descending on Qishan?

Or is it a lie made up by Xiqi’s side!”

Hearing His Majesty's question, all the generals looked solemn, because if it was a lie, it would prove that Xiqi had rebelled against him, and he would be punished.

'Wen Zhong' said:

"When Feng Ming Qishan, the late king was still alive. At that time, the late king also had many doubts about this matter like His Majesty, so he sent an old minister to investigate the matter!"

"The veteran dressed up in disguise and went to Xiqi in person, and finally confirmed with his own eyes that there is indeed a pair of phoenixes living in Qishan!"

"But this matter is not ordinary, because there are rumors in Xiqi that this 'Fengming Qishan' is because of 'Jichang''s virtuous government, and God was moved by God to send such auspiciousness!"

‘Huang Feihu’ listened puzzled and asked: “Master, didn’t this matter spread all over the world long ago? Is there anything weird about it?”

'Wen Zhong' said:

"You only know one but not the other. In fact, there is a second rumor in Xiqi!"

"Because the phoenixes are a pair of fire phoenixes, there are rumors in Xiqi that Huangdi Xuanyuan gained the virtue of earth and conquered the world, King Yu gained the virtue of wood and became the king of men, and I, the Great Shang, gained the virtue of gold and ruled the world.

The desolation, and the fire phoenix falling on Qishan is a sign that Xibohou will gain the virtue of fire and replace it with the virtue of Shangtang and Jin..."

'Huang Shaohong' smiled and said nothing. Isn't this the same thing as 'Zou Yan''s 'Five Virtues End and Beginning' trick? Unexpectedly, it already existed during the Conferred God Period.

Although the "replacement of five elements" in the "Five Virtues Theory" has certain truth, "Huang Shaohong" still believes that those who win the hearts of the people win the world.

Nowadays, except for Xiqi, the world is peaceful, the people are prosperous, and the world is stable. In his opinion, the Shangtang Kingdom is already solid. As long as nothing happens to him, how can "Xiqi" be replaced.

Seeing that His Majesty didn't say anything, Huang Feihu said "Hey" and spat:

"Sure enough, Mr. Ji Chang has had his objections for a long time. When it comes to Yin-Yang numerology and Five Elements Bagua, he is the best in our human race. I guess those rumors must have been leaked by him himself!"

‘Master Wen’ nodded and said:

"The late king and I thought so at the beginning, but just when the late king was considering whether to punish Ji Chang, there was another news from Xiqi!"

"The theory of the Five Virtues was a rumor spread by one of Ji Chang's clan members. After Ji Chang found out, he had his clan brother hanged in a busy city to serve as a warning to others!"

"Furthermore, Ji Chang also took the initiative to write a letter to the late king to plead guilty, saying that he was guilty of not investigating. His self-incrimination letter contained tens of thousands of words, and only one tortoise shell used a cart. After seeing so many tortoise shells, the late king couldn't laugh or cry, and he didn't even look at him.

He directly expresses his sincerity in his confession, and believes that Xibohou does not know about this matter, and only this matter is understood!"

When everyone heard that there was still this story, they were relieved.

Only ‘Huang Shaohong’ smiled and said:

"This was an act of retreat in order to advance. He only killed one "brother" whom he didn't know if he was the real one. However, he not only allowed the rumor to spread, but also killed himself cleanly. This method can be described as cunning and sophisticated."

When everyone thought about it, it turned out that it was indeed the case. Before His Majesty decided to take action against Xibohou, the reputation of 'Jichang' as a benevolent sage had already spread throughout the world. It was impossible that Xiqi's side was not contributing to this. Thinking of this,

They feel more and more that what 'Huang Shaohong' said makes sense.

'Grand Master Wen' had obviously thought about this issue, but the late king had already made a decision back then, so he couldn't say anything. He just nodded slightly and did not comment.

‘Huang Shaohong’ added: “When encountering this kind of thing in the future, just look at who the beneficiary is in the end. Even if it’s not the beneficiary, just treat it as him. Anyway, it’s right to designate him!”

The generals have a black line, Your Majesty, you said it so straightforwardly in front of us, is it really okay?

The army continued to march towards Qishan Mountain in the distance. With the whole army and horses, they marched 1,800 miles in three days. At noon that day, there was a message from the 'Golden-winged Dapeng' in the sky, saying that there was a cavalry force of more than 10,000 people.

Coming.

"Huang Shaohong" heard that there were finally more than 10,000 enemy troops attacking, and he immediately became interested and personally led a cavalry of 2,000 people to attack.

The human king behaved like this. Even if all the generals knew about the power of King Zhou, they could not help but laugh or cry, and were frightened. They quickly asked the two vanguards, "Nezha" and "Yang Jian", to accompany the king to protect his majesty's safety.

Speaking of which, the emperor personally led the charge and was able to lead the charge. Taking into account the history of China on earth, there is probably only one person like 'Huang Shaohong'.

Among the emperors, 'Li Shimin', 'Zhao Kuangyin', 'Temujin', and 'Nurhachi' all liked to charge into battle personally, but that was before they became emperors. I have never seen any emperor lead the troops after he ascended the throne.

Charge.

Now that I have it, it feels weird.

After marching for ten miles, they finally saw the Xiqi cavalry, all of whom were lightly armed and armed with bows and arrows. At this time, the two armies were hundreds of steps apart. The other side, relying on the power of the charging horses, had already bent its bows and nocked arrows, preparing for a volley of fire.

'Huang Shaohong' did not use the 'Light Sword' but had already taken out the alloy-forged Fang Tian painted halberd from his luggage. At this time, he waved the painted halberd and shouted loudly:

"When we meet on a narrow road, the brave one wins. The whole army will charge with me!"

As he spoke, he clamped his feet on the horse's belly, and the horse's speed increased instantly, and it shot out like a sharp arrow.

'Nezha', 'Yang Jian' and the two thousand cavalrymen all felt their heads twitching when they saw it. They all raised their bows and arrows. According to the original tactics, they should not immediately turn around the dock at this time, quickly escape from the shooting range, and shoot these people.

Are 10,000 enemy troops introduced into the encirclement? What the hell is a charge?

But at this time, the King of Humans took the lead and rushed forward. Naturally, they had no reason not to follow. Everyone was ready to protect His Majesty's safety with their lives.

So "Nezha" and "Yang Jian" both galloped forward, and the two thousand soldiers behind them also did the same. They put their heads behind the horses' necks and kept beating the horses' buttocks to make the horses accelerate faster.

‘Buzz’

A buzzing sound came from afar, and everyone knew that it was the sound of the bowstring vibrating when the enemy's light cavalry fired.

Then he saw a dense rain of arrows falling in an arc across the sky.

At this time, 'Huang Shaohong' was still leading the way and shouted: "Faster, run faster!"

Two thousand Yin and Shang cavalry were beating their horses with all their might, trying to catch up with the human king. They no longer cared whether they would be hit by an arrow, just leave it to fate.

‘Whoosh whoosh whoosh’…

A miracle happened. Those arrows flew over the heads of the Yin and Shang cavalry, fell behind the horses of the two thousand cavalry, and all shot on the ground.

However, Xiqi Qingqi's side did not expect that the Yin Shang cavalry would suddenly accelerate their charge, so they miscalculated the arrow's landing point.

At this time, the two armies were already a hundred steps apart. Xiqi Qingqi fired his bow again, and there was another sound of trembling bowstrings.

‘Huang Shaohong’ roared again: “Quick, faster!”

‘Bang bang bang…’

This time, the Yin and Shang cavalry finally suffered casualties. Dozens of cavalry were hit by arrows and fell off their horses. But that was it. More cavalry quickly closed the distance between the two armies through fast horses, and therefore took a step forward to avoid the rain of arrows.

Scope of coverage.

According to the consistent style of Xiqi Qingqi, they should hit the horse and leave now, using the same cavalry and shooting tactics as the enemy advances while we retreat. After a few rounds of shooting, the two thousand Yin Shang cavalry can be completely eaten.

But at this moment, 'Huang Shaohong' waved the 'Fangtian Painted Halberd' in his hand and shouted: "Emperor Xin is here, he will die!"

"What, that is the Human King!"

The leading generals on Xiqi's side were suddenly startled. They saw that the Yin Shang only had one or two thousand people, and there were tens of thousands of cavalry on their side. If they could kill 'King Zhou' in front of the formation, then the Yin Shang's strength would be exhausted.

, by then I will have made a great contribution.

Thinking of this, the general's mind became hot, he hit his horse with his hand, and shouted: "Follow me, general, to kill the enemy!"

As he spoke, he urged his horses and led his troops to charge forward.

‘Bang’
