Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Several ministers were already waiting in the meeting hall. Among them, King Wucheng Huang Feihu, who had the most explosive temper, was so anxious that he circled around in the side hall.  When he was training infantry, he received an urgent military message from the border. He ran to the side hall without even taking off his fifty-five kilograms of silver armor.  As he walked faster and faster in the side hall, the silver armor on his body made a "clatter" and "crash" sound, and his sharp eyes like a falcon revealed a strong flame of anxiety.

    Huang Feihu's right hand was always pressed on the hilt of the sword. If it weren't for the fact that he was the second best protector of the Shang Kingdom after Wen Zhongwen, his own sister was King Zhou's favorite concubine, and he was loyal to King Zhou, he would have  These habitual actions and the issue of carrying weapons into the side hall are enough to constitute a serious crime of treason!

    King Zhou looked at Huang Feihu, who was only slightly shorter than himself by an inch, with a look of pride in his eyes.  Huang Feihu has been on the battlefield for fifteen years, experienced more than two hundred battles, and strategized time and time again, which gave him an unpredictable style in his eyes, but he also has the kind of passionate spirit that can inspire attributes.  The next brother is an invincible warrior with the craziest fighting ability.  The combination of these two contradictions forms a brave, resourceful and invincible orthodox commander!

    ?? Huang Feihu is unstoppable when he attacks, but when he defends, he is like an iron wall, invulnerable.  The enemies who fought against him all felt a headache when faced with a commander who was both offensive and defensive, who had the strength and courage of a warrior and the shrewdness of a counselor, and who had almost no weaknesses!

    Huang Feihu was born into a noble family, and his family had been loyal to the Shang Dynasty for five generations. The possibility of alienating such a general and rebelling against him was extremely close to zero.  It was because of Huang Feihu, the king of Zhenguo and Wu Cheng, that Master Wen Zhong dared to lead the elite of the Shang Dynasty to conquer surrounding countries and build a growing empire for the Shang Dynasty.

    Uncle Bigan Wang, who was lean and thin, with a sense of righteousness all over his body, stared at Fei Zhong, who was sweating, and said in a sarcastic tone: "It's rare that Doctor Fei can be so concerned about state affairs this time, and can ignore himself.  He broke into the harem safely and invited the king to the side hall to discuss matters."

    Fei Zhong said confidently: "I, Fei Zhong, am a scholar-bureaucrat of the Shang Dynasty and a minister beside the king. It is natural for me to be loyal to the country and solve the king's worries."

    Uncle Bigan stepped forward and said, "Since Dr. Fei Zhong is so confident, he must have a plan to solve the current crisis? Bigan is here to listen to Dr. Fei Zhong's advice!"

    Fei Zhong couldn't help but be speechless for a moment. When it came to searching for rare treasures and robbing folk beauties, half of them were kept for his own enjoyment and half of them were given to the king.  Are you going to show your embarrassment in front of experts like Cheng Wang and Bi Gan?

    Seeing Fei Zhong's embarrassment, King Zhou waved his hand and stopped this problem for Fei Zhong. He looked around at everyone present. When he thought of the war starting again, he couldn't help but feel a thirst for blood in his heart.  Flame, he raised his voice and asked: "Now the thieves are operating freely in our territory from three directions, disturbing our people and looting our property. It is really an unforgivable crime. But they are all in one place. Even if we send troops to conquer, we are afraid  Regardless of one thing or another, all ministers are the pillars of the country, please speak freely and relieve my worries."

    Huang Feihu, the Wucheng King of Zhenguo, stretched out his hand, and six warriors carried a map with a wooden frame, which was one foot and a half long and five feet high, and weighed more than 250 kilograms, to the center of the side hall.

    This kind of map is definitely the highest innovation in the world. On the wooden board, honey is mixed with lime and egg green to make the most viscous material. Huang Feihu himself commanded fifty skilled craftsmen based on the information gathered at hand, which lasted for a long time.  A three-dimensional map that took just one year and three months to complete.

    On this three-dimensional map, the terrain and garrisons of Chaoge and the surrounding countries are all available. Even the smallest undercurrents on the hills are not missed. Matching this map, there is also a 35,000-year-old map.  A thousand words, it took twenty bolts of silk to record the annotations on geographical customs.

    Huang Feihu caressed the three-dimensional map, with a flash of fanaticism in his eyes. He stared at King Zhou, with a strong and cold temper that had experienced hundreds of battles. He said proudly: "This is a battle in which we must not show weakness."  War! Faced with the premeditated provocation and aggression of these enemies, our only choice is to fight a nationwide war and use thunderous means to eliminate them! Completely and completely eliminate them all!!!"

    "Now the enemy is launching attacks from three directions at the same time. It is obvious that we must not attack both ends. They all adopt guerrilla tactics of one hit and go, and the battlefield is in the open Yangtze River Basin and mountains. They want to push them into a desperate situation and are defeated.  If we are forced to fight to the death, we must have 50,000 well-trained regular troops to do it!"

    Huang Feihu casually pulled out the small blue flag representing Dongyi on the map and replaced it with a red flag marked with the word "Wen", his eyes bright.Looking at the audience, he said proudly: "Dongyi is a Li tribe that once competed with the Yan tribe and Huangdi for control of the earth. No matter how they decline now, the remnants of them still have considerable strength. What's more important is that they  The strategic goal will never be satisfied with just looting and returning home with a full load, so we must remove this nail! Taishi Wen Zhong has just led his army to conquer the remote small country Chen in the southeast and is moving his troops back to the court. Your Majesty, you can ask Wen  The Grand Master issued an order, ordering Grand Master Wen to take a short rest and then immediately send out troops to quell the Dongyi rebellion in the southeast and deal the hardest blow to the enemy! As long as we can deal with the 80,000 elite soldiers led by Master Wen in time,  By providing the necessary food, grass and medicine, I can determine that the Dongyi rebellion is no longer a cause for concern."

    Everyone present nodded. Fei Zhong saw the look of admiration on King Zhou's face, and a trace of jealousy flashed in his eyes involuntarily, but he quickly and casually covered up this emotion.

    "The next target we must eliminate is the Jingchu rebels in the Jianghan River Basin." Huang Feihu pointed at the map of the south and said: "There are many Fang countries and tribes in the south of our country, and the Jingchu rebels in the Jianghan River Basin are the most powerful among them.  King Wu Ding, who created the "Wu Ding Dynasty" in our country, once led the warriors of the Shang State into the Jianghan River Basin, defeated them, and sacrificed the captives as "human sacrifices" to the ghosts and gods, making the Shang State and Jingchu become irreconcilable mortal enemies.  . Facing this resurgent rebel army, we can only suppress it with all our strength, and we must not allow them to gain power! Let alone let other countries and tribes think that our Shang Kingdom is weak and can be bullied, so they have the idea of ????fishing in troubled waters!"

    After thinking for a moment, Huang Feihu suddenly knelt down in front of King Zhou and shouted: "Wei Chen has been thinking about it for a long time. To exterminate this rebel army, Wei Chen needs to personally lead the troops. Please give me the tiger talisman and allow me to lead Wei Chen to lead his subordinates."  The Tiger Camp with 50,000 infantry, 200 chariots, and 1,000 tiger warriors will go to quell the chaos. It can take as little as half a year, or as slowly as a year, and the humble ministers can successfully return to the court."

    As soon as Huang Feihu said this, everyone except Bigan and Shang Rong, who had already discussed it together, looked surprised.  Fei Zhong couldn't help shouting: "Huang Feihu, you are the King of Wucheng of Zhenguo. If you lead Chaoge to fight with all the elites, who will protect Chaoge and the king?"

    Huang Feihu looked at King Zhou with both eyes and said sincerely: "To quell the Jingchu rebellion, this battle is related to the foundation of our country. We must not allow the slightest mistake. I really can't trust such an important task to others."  .Although I took away most of Chaoge's defenders this time, I still have 20,000 elite soldiers, as well as the King's Red Tiger Camp. With the King's invincible bravery and the dedicated assistance of countless loyal and brave men of our Shang Kingdom, the King  Although we cannot lead these Shang warriors to fight against enemy invaders, they can more than protect themselves!"

    Feeling Huang Feihu's trusting gaze, King Zhou felt his heart heat up, nodded fiercely, and said: "It's accurate!"

    "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

    Huang Feihu walked to the map again and pointed to the small green flag in the east representing the Eastern Qiang. After a long silence, he whispered: "The Qiang people are divided into two camps: the Eastern Qiang and the Western Qiang. Among the Western Qiang, there are Qiang Long and Qiang.  It is no exaggeration to say that the Fang, Bei Qiang, Ma Qiang and other ethnic groups are a hodgepodge. Their biggest wish when entering our country is to plunder enough food, bronzes and women, so among the three rebel armies, they are  They should be the least threat to our country. But these Qiang people have grown up on horses all their lives and are best at shooting bows on horseback. They form a cavalry team to carry out raids. They can really come and go like the wind. No matter who wants to completely defeat this kind of troops  It will take a long time to completely annihilate them. And with our current number of troops, we are still unable to dispatch enough troops to encircle and suppress them."

    Everyone looked at Huang Feihu quietly, expecting this wise and courageous commander to come up with a brilliant strategy to defeat the enemy.

    "To deal with this group of Dong Qiang cavalry, I thought about it and found a way." A bitter look appeared on Huang Feihu's face, and he hissed: "We are no longer able to dispatch elite troops to encircle and suppress this group of cavalry.  There are no capable cadres in the DPRK and China to carry out such tasks in the future. So my suggestion is"

    Speaking of this, even Prime Minister Bigan and Uncle Shang Rong showed concern. Obviously Huang Feihu did not tell them all about this plan. Huang Feihu gritted his teeth and covered the entire eastern war zone with his hands.  , hissed: "Please give the king an order to recruit all strong men between the ages of fourteen and forty-five in the eastern battlefield, and issue them with weapons to form a militia unit to intercept the Eastern Qiang cavalry!"

    Everyone was stunned by Huang Feihu's plan.

    Huang Feihu's voice reached everyone's ears coolly, "I know that untrained militiamen cannot be a match for the Qiang's brave cavalry, but we can recruit at least 300,000 militia troops in the eastern theater.  Together with the slave army composed of 230,000 slaves in the east, we can have a total of 530,000 troops in the eastern theater!"

    ?"Fifty-three thousand troops! And even if the Dongqiang people are all soldiers, it would be good if they can have 15,000 cavalry. Since we can no longer win qualitatively, we must gain an absolute advantage in quantity.  Even the strength gap between the two sides!"

    Bigan's eyes widened and he finally couldn't help but ask: "In this case, even if we can achieve the final victory, how many of these 530,000 people will be left? You know, our Shang Kingdom still needs these civilians and slaves  Engage in production and support the economic lifeline of the eastern region of our country!"

    "Don't expect the 530,000 miscellaneous army to achieve the final victory!" Huang Feihu's eyes flashed with an absolutely cold light, and he said solemnly: "We have an absolute advantage in terms of numbers, but they can only contain the Qiang people.  The most important role of the cavalry is to prevent the Qiang cavalry from looting so smoothly. If we want to destroy these Qiang troops, we still need to rely on the 80,000 elite Shang warriors led by Grand Master Wen! After this war, 530,000  How many people can be left depends on how much time it takes Grand Master Wen to eliminate the rebels from the Li tribe!"

    Huang Feihu closed his eyes and recalled in his mind the sharp bow shots of the Qiang cavalry and the sharp lightning attacks they launched with the help of their horses.  When thousands of horses galloped, the earth shook, the mountains shook, and the yellow sand covered the sun. Looking at this earth-shattering momentum, not to mention the militiamen or slave soldiers who had not experienced any training, even the veterans who had been on the battlefield were dazzled.  Hands shaking!

    After a long time, Huang Feihu whispered: "If Grand Master Wen can put down the rebellion of the Li people within half a year and return to the army in time to provide assistance, half of these 530,000 people can survive."

    Now even Shang Rong couldn't bear it anymore. He asked in a trembling voice, "What if Grand Master Wen cannot put down the rebellion of the Li tribe within half a year?"

    Huang Feihu met Shang Rong's pleading eyes, sighed, and said: "Six months is the limit of the morale and food support of this motley army. If it exceeds six months, they will be defeated like a mountain, and their survival numbers will be reduced."  ¡­Ten is less than one!¡±

    Everyone looked at Huang Feihu with a mixture of fear, suspicion and admiration. Their expressions were like looking at a wolf, the cruelest lone wolf that would drag the enemy to death even if it was fatally injured!

    Huang Feihu said bitterly: "They are an abandoned army that has not yet been formed and is destined to be abandoned by us!"

    Since ancient times, famous generals have stepped on countless dead bones to climb to the pinnacle of success step by step. There is absolutely no luck in this!

    Staring at the general he admired most, King Zhou nodded slowly and said: "It's accurate!"
