Chapter ninety-eight.
After successively capturing Mianchi and Mengjin counties, the morale of the coalition forces was unprecedentedly high and they marched all the way in. In just two days, they had already marched hundreds of miles and were approaching Chaoge!
Forty miles west of Chaoge City, Makino County.
Emperor Xin had already led Chaoge's army to the Muye area one day before. He had set up a formation in advance and formed a military formation. He was already ready for a decisive battle with the allied forces of the princes.
This battle is the final battle that will determine the fate of the country. If he can win and defeat the coalition of princes, Di Xin and Yin Shang Shang still have a chance to make a comeback. If they lose, he will have no way out!
"Report! Your Majesty, Xiqi's army has arrived at Muye, and is less than ten miles away from our army!"
Di Xin responded casually, the expression on his face did not change, but if you look carefully, you can find that there seems to be thunder and fire shining in his pupils!
Half an hour later, Xiqi's army had arrived at the center of the field, facing off with Chaoge's army a hundred meters away. Hundreds of thousands of troops from both sides gathered on the north and south sides of the plain, forming formations one above the other.
The chilling meaning makes many people instinctively tremble in their limbs and feel chills on the back of their necks.
The most eye-catching thing is undoubtedly the majestic figure of Di Xin who leads the way and stands proudly.
For many years, people in the world have only heard rumors about Emperor Xin's cruelty and mediocrity, and most of them thought that he must be an incompetent person. But now on this battlefield, when they saw his extraordinary and awe-inspiring posture, they
My heart suddenly shook.
No matter how hard they try to belittle Di Xin, it is undeniable that until now, he is still the common master of the world, the human king who rules the world and governs all people!
Among the princes, several people who were familiar with Di Xin and had seen his demeanor in his youth could not help but tighten their pupils. They felt that the young hero who had made them fearful and fearful in their hearts many years ago was once again
came back!
Fortunately, today's Yin Shang has already reached the end of its rope. Even if Di Xin really returns to the peak of his youth, he will be unable to recover. What's more, Di Xin is probably just holding on.
That’s all.
As the saying goes, a tiger cannot fall until it dies. After thinking about this, the frightened and shocked expressions on the faces of the princes slowly faded away. After all, it was just a little bit of residual power, but it could not deter them.
!
"Di Xin!" Among the crowd, Dong Bohou Jiang Wenhuan rode his horse out of the formation, pointed the steel whip in his hand at Di Xin, and yelled.
"You, a stupid and cruel person, dare to show up in front of the two armies today. Don't you know that we all want to chop you into pieces and chop you into pieces!"
Di Xin just raised his head and glanced at Jiang Wenhuan indifferently, not even bothering to respond to him.
Being ignored by Di Xin, Jiang Wenhuan couldn't help but become even more angry. His face turned red and he cursed at Di Xin.
"What?! You fool, don't you dare to answer? When you killed my father and harmed my sister, why didn't you show any hesitation at all?!"
Seriously speaking, the relationship between Jiang Wenhuan and Di Xin is still that of uncle and brother-in-law. Jiang Wenhuan's sister was killed by the nine-tailed demon fox and King Zhou. Her eyes were beheaded, her hands were branded, and she was humiliated and tortured to death.
Queen Ginger!
When Di Xin heard this, the expression on his face couldn't help but become a little obviously moved.
He looked at Jiang Wenhuan and said: "Jiang Huanchu relied on his status as Dong Bohou and had a disobedient heart. It is only right that he be killed by the lonely king."
As for the queen, it was indeed the lonely king who felt sorry for her, Di Xin secretly added in his heart.
Back then, he wanted to abolish slavery and return power to the princes. The first person he found was Dong Bohou Jiang Huanchu.
Because Jiang Huanchu was his father-in-law, the relationship between the two parties was close, and Jiang Huanchu had a reputation as a virtuous man, upright, strong, and righteous to his family and country.
At that time, Emperor Xin really thought that Jiang Huanchu could understand his ambition and fully support him, but... finally he realized that Jiang Huanchu was the most ambitious among the four princes!
Like Jichang, the Marquis of Xibo, Jiang Huanchu also deliberately strived for a great reputation and married his daughter to Emperor Xin as his queen. She seemed to be extremely loyal, and she was his minister in the Yin and Shang Dynasties.
But in fact, everything Jiang Huanchu did had a strong purpose!
Although Emperor Xin didn't have many concubines in the harem at that time, after so many years, he only had two children, both of whom were born to Queen Jiang... After secretly investigating, he discovered that Jiang Huanchu had done everything.
Ghost!
Among the concubines in his harem, except for Queen Jiang, no one had any problems. After learning the truth, Emperor Xin wanted to cut Jiang Huanchu into pieces with a thousand knives!
Emperor Xin was very clear about Jiang Huanchu's purpose of doing this, which was simply to allow his daughter's son to inherit his Yin-Shang dynasty.
Even...if Emperor Xin died early and the two princes had not yet grown up, it would seem that it would be appropriate for Jiang Huanchu, the grandfather, to serve as regent/king for them for a few years?
So Jiang Huanchu died and was killed by Emperor Xin Hanhen. Even Queen Jiang and even the two princes were also angered by him, creating a series of tragedies.
He thought that Queen Jiang and his father were also on the same team and wanted to join forces to murder him. He thought that the two princes were here to snatch his throne and seize his Yin Shang foundation... Thinking about it now, he was indeed very serious at that time.
Something's wrong, he's so dizzy.
So he didn't feel the slightest burden about killing Jiang Huanchu. However, for Queen Jiang and his two princes, it was indeed his actions that were too extreme and cruel. Looking back now, he felt guilty in his heart.
But even so, he would not express it, let alone admit his mistake on this matter, not only because of his pride, but also because he could not let down his own morale.
Jiang Wenhuan said angrily: "You emperor Xin! You actually insulted the reputation of my late father! My father guarded Donglu and resisted Dongyi for you Yin Shang. He made great contributions to guard the side, but you are a fool like you.
Harmful."
"Now you, such a foolish king, are still insulting my father's reputation after his death. I will never break up with you today!"
After saying this, Jiang Wenhuan picked up the steel whip, put the sword on the horse's back, urged the horse to rush towards Emperor Xin, and fought.
"Hang on, Marquis Dongbo!" Jiang Ziya hurriedly stopped Jiang Wenhuan and said, "Don't be rash. Let me go and question him and see what Emperor Xin has to say. If it is justified, it will not be too late to attack Wudao again."
After being stopped by Jiang Ziya, Jiang Wenhuan hesitated for a moment, suppressed the anger in his heart for the time being, and returned to the formation.
The leader of this expedition against the Yin Shang Dynasty was undoubtedly Xiqi's side, but Jiang Wenhuan's vision was much stronger than that of Chong Heihu, and he knew that only by siding with Xiqi's side would he gain the greatest victory.
Jiang Ziya nodded to Jiang Wenhuan, then gently patted the crowd, walked out of the formation and walked to the field, and looked up at Di Xin.
Di Xin glanced at Jiang Ziya with a faint expression: "Who is coming?"
Naturally, it was impossible for him not to know Jiang Ziya. The reason why he asked so loudly was just to deliberately humiliate Jiang Ziya.
Jiang Ziya raised his head and saluted: "King Zhou is really a noble man who forgets things a lot. Jiang Shang was an official in Chaoge back then, but King Zhou has a poor memory."
Di Xin sneered: "So it's you. I haven't seen you in the past few years. I heard that you suddenly changed your identity and went to Xiqi to pay homage to the prime minister. The lonely king really didn't recognize you."
Jiang Ziya was not angry, but said calmly: "King Zhou, now that all the princes in the world are here, don't you still regret yourself?"
"Oh? Repent?" Di Xin's eyes turned cold, "You bunch of traitors and thieves, do you want the lonely king to repent?"
"Haha...hahahaha." Di Xin suddenly laughed out loud.
"why are you laughing?"
"The Lone King is laughing at you, those who deceive the world and steal your reputation! If you want the Lone King's empire, then just come and get it with open arms, so why bother with these little tricks?"
Di Xin looked at Jiang Ziya and said calmly: "Okay, I don't have time to talk to you any more."
He turned to look at Ji Fa in Xiqi's camp and pointed the sword in his hand.
"Child Ji Fa, since you want to seize my Yin Shang empire and become the new co-owner of the world, then go out and fight the lonely king. If you win, you can naturally take his place."
Hearing this, Ji Fa and everyone else's expressions changed.
The method used by Emperor Xin was undoubtedly to provoke the general. He deliberately made such a noise to provoke Ji to fight with him.
There is nothing wrong with this originally. After all, Di Xin represents the Yin Shang Dynasty, and the representative of Xiqi is Ji Fa, so there seems to be nothing wrong with the two of them fighting each other.
