    Because of Emperor Xin's previous reforms, most of the nobles in the country were dissatisfied with Emperor Xinxin Village. In addition, due to the Dongyi rebellion, a large number of merchant soldiers were killed and injured. Emperor Xin Yujia's personal expedition did not end quickly.  The battle turned into a stalemate, constantly consuming the country's financial and material resources, causing the country's seemingly stable situation to have undercurrents.

    This has created a feeling of dissatisfaction with Emperor Xin in the hearts of a large number of people, and this seemingly sudden accident suddenly exploded the dissatisfaction hidden in the hearts of the people.  .

    The people of Dachang believed that this accident was due to Shang King Di Xin's misconduct, so God sent a sin and gave Di Xin a warning. Suddenly, there was a voice of condemnation for Shang King Di Xin throughout the country.

    And seeing such a good opportunity, how could the Ji family in the West let it go? Because the person who guarded the ancestral temple had said before that he saw a big bird like a black bird flying out of the Shang Ancestral Temple.  Go to the west, and the area controlled by the Ji family is to the west of Chaoge, the capital of Dashang. Fortunately, the Ji family has an excellent excuse.

    The Ji family immediately shouted the popular slogan of "The Black Bird Flying to the West", announced their rebellion from the rule of the great Shang, announced the founding of a country, and named the country Zhou. The head of the Ji family, Ji Fa, became the king of Zhou.  Ji Fa's deceased father, Ji Chang, was posthumously named King Wen of Zhou, and Lu Wang (also known as Jiang Ziya), a cultivator who explained the religion, led the army.

    ??Then Ji Fa issued an order, raised an army to rebel, and began to attack Chaoge. In fact, this Ji family had established the Zhou Kingdom for a long time. At that time, according to the Zhou Kingdom's chronological method, it was the eleventh year of King Wu of Zhou. Now it is just a name for it.

    Since the Ji family had discussed with most of the nobles before and promised countless benefits, so along the way, the Zhou army entered the hinterland of Dashang as if they were entering an uninhabited land.  The nobles actually let the Zhou army pass by, with few people blocking it. When the Zhou army was approaching the center of the Shang Dynasty, the capital Chaoge, the number of troops did not decrease, but actually increased.

    At this time, Emperor Xin also learned about the news that the Ji family had founded a country privately and rebelled. He wounded one thousand enemies and suffered eight hundred losses for himself. In this way, regardless of casualties, he finally put down Dongyi.  He rebelled and led the remaining remnants back to Chaoge, the capital. After selecting the slaves he had liberated, he did not have time to rest and train, so he merged with the remnants he brought back from Dongyi and became one.  Detach troops and horses, lead them out of the city, and go to the wilderness to fight the Zhou army.

    The fierce battle at that time was fought in darkness, and both sides suffered heavy casualties, especially since the law of heaven was unknown at that time, and there was a mixture of humans and gods. Both sides of the battle were joined by monks. Among them, the one who supported the Zhou army was the man from Yuxu in Kunlun Mountain.  The disciples of the teachings founded by Gong Yuan Tianzun, and those who support the Shang army are mostly casual cultivators from all parties and monks living in famous mountains and rivers, and overseas fairy islands. Among them, the most powerful one is located on Jin'ao Island in the East China Sea.  A Jiejiao monk under the sect of the leader of Yougong Tongtian.

    This battle can be said to be a grand concentrated display of various Chinese magic arts. It is also because this battle has caused too much damage to the human world. Therefore, after this battle, there is a problem among the monks.  It is stipulated that no cultivator is allowed to participate in this battle between mortals. If there is any violation, the monks in the world will fight against it. Therefore, this can be said to be the last war that the Chinese monks will participate in.

    The result of the final war was that Shang King Di Xin's side was defeated. Finally, the Zhou Dynasty Allied Forces won the victory. Emperor Xin returned in defeat and finally died. Since the role of the monks in this was really difficult to publicize, so in  Historically, all the parts about the monks in this battle have been deleted.

    However, during the Ming Dynasty, a descendant of the novelist Xu Zhonglin finally unearthed this content, interpreted it and finally wrote a novel "Fengshen Yanyi" which is regarded as a popular version of the immortal genealogy. Only this world knows about this matter.  the whole story.

    After all the content about monks was deleted from the history books, the following records were left: On January 26, 1046 BC, the King of Zhou personally led 300 chariots, 3,000 tiger warriors, and tens of thousands of infantry.  People, send troops to conquer the east.  On February 21 of the same year, the Zhou army arrived at Mengjin and joined forces with the Yong, Lu, Peng, Pu, Shu, Qiang, Wei, Li and other tribes. The total number of allied troops reached 45,000.

    On February 26, the coalition forces continued to march eastward despite the rain. After crossing the river from Sidi, they headed northward until they reached Baiquan and then turned eastward.  In the early morning of the 27th, King Wu of Zhou solemnly swore an oath to be his master, enumerating all the atrocities committed by Emperor Xin, which was the "Oath of Pastoral" recorded in "Shangshu".  At dawn on the 28th, the coalition troops entered Makino.  "The Book of Songs" records: "The fields are vast, and the eagles are flying. King Wu of Liang is attacking the great merchants, and the meeting will be held during the Qingming Festival."

    Emperor Xin was shocked to hear that the Zhou army was attacking. Therefore, the main force of the merchant army was far away in the southeast and could not be mobilized immediately, so he had to hastily arm a large number of slaves.Slaves and prisoners of war, together with the troops guarding the capital, marched to Makino to fight.  According to "Historical Records", the total number of troops dispatched by Emperor Xin was 700,000, and other documents record it as 170,000.  "The Book of Songs: Ming Dynasty" says: "The journey of the Yin and Shang Dynasties is like a forest."

    "Yi Zhou Shu Keyin" records: The Zhou army was first led by Lu Shang to challenge hundreds of elite soldiers, which shocked the merchant army and disrupted its position. Then King Wu of Zhou personally led the main force to follow up and charge, completely disrupting the opponent's formation.  .  The slaves and prisoners of war in the merchant army had no fighting spirit and defected one after another, and the merchant army quickly collapsed.  Seeing that the situation was over, Emperor Xin returned to Chaoge, climbed to the Lutai, "covered his pearls and jade, and burned himself to death in the fire." The Shang Dynasty was officially destroyed.  When King Wu of Zhou rushed to Lutai, he stabbed Emperor Xin's body with a "Qing Lu" and personally beheaded him and hung a flag to show the public.

    "Shangshu Wucheng" records that King Wu of Zhou attacked King Zhou of Shang. The year was on Quailhuo, the moon was on Tiansi, the sun was on Ximuzhijin, the morning was on Douban, and the star was on the sky at Muye near Chaoge.  A fierce battle, the sky was dark and the earth was dark, and blood flowed everywhere.  Extremely bloody and cruel.

    After reading this book, Mencius sighed: "It is better to believe in the book than to have no book at all. I have only adopted two or three strategies in Wucheng. A benevolent person is invincible in the world; even if the benevolent is attacked to the unbenevolent, how much blood will be shed! Mencius  I think this description is exaggerated. King Wu's army is a benevolent and righteous army and will not kill innocent people indiscriminately. King Zhou is cruel and the soldiers will revolt one after another. There will not be such fierce battles.

    However, looking at the situation at the time objectively, the situation recorded in "Shangshu¡¤Zhou¡¤Wucheng" may be closer to the truth. How could those slaves who were liberated by Emperor Xin's decree not fight to the death for the emperor who liberated them?  It's just that the newly liberated slaves are no match for those Zhou Guolian soldiers who have been trained for a long time.
