What is it like to be summoned as a giant?

Chapter 496 The Battle of Boshui Pass

Jiang Ziya ran away, and Tang Lin took Kong Xuan back to Xiqi. Originally, he was planning to ask Xibohou for another divination, but he couldn't locate Jiang Ziya's location again.In the end, Xibohou said that divination can only be performed once for the same event, and if the divination is forced, either the result will be inaccurate or there will be retribution.

Tang Lin was also helpless, it seemed that Jiang Ziya had really escaped.The more important issue is that Jiang Ziya wrote his name on the list of gods, and the whip will be effective for him.The next time he encounters a magic whip, he can still smash his heavenly spirit, but he doesn't have a second life-saving talisman.

Therefore, in order to catch Jiang Ziya, Tang Lin must have an absolute advantage, and at the same time have many people around him to help, in order to save himself from being instantly killed by the magic whip. This magic weapon is really unreasonable.

Tang Lin forced Huang Feihu to retreat at Chentang Pass, and took Kong Xuan at Sanshan Pass. It can be said that he tore Yin Jiao's face off and stomped ten thousand feet.

But Yin Jiao couldn't help it. What could a mortal emperor do with a supernatural being?Especially now that the number of days is chaotic, and the number of dynasty has no effect.

However, Yin Jiao still has another goal that can show his imperial power, and that is Li Jing in Chentangguan.Killing Li Jing's family, this is the end of their cooperation with the rebels.

As soon as the imperial decree came out, Wen Taishi expressed his opposition in the court hall.

"Li Jing has been loyal and good for generations, and Taoist Lihuo's murder of the late emperor is nothing more than rumors. Your Majesty, if you want to convict Li Jing with this, it is the work of a tyrant."

As a veteran of the four dynasties, Wen Taishi was the head of the civil servants. As soon as this remark was made, many courtiers immediately echoed it.

But how could Yin Jiao accept that Taoist Lihuo made King Zhou indulge in sensuality? Yin Jiao saw it with his own eyes.The case of King Zhou's death from poisoning has never been settled, so besides Taoist Lihuo, who else is most suspected.

Yin Jiao didn't convict Taoist Lihuo at first, and originally wanted him to come to Chaoge to prove his innocence.But Taoist Lihuo didn't come to Chaoge to defend himself at all, he simply despised the imperial power, Yin Jiao had to convict him no matter whether he was guilty or not.

Otherwise, how majestic are the laws of the Shang Dynasty?

However, Taoist Lihuo used the simplest and most brutal means to rebel against the court time and time again.Yin Jiao absolutely couldn't bear this situation.

Li Jing could only count him as unlucky, Yin Jiao didn't know that Li Jing was wronged, but if he didn't take this man out as an example, he would become the laughing stock of the world.

If Tang Lin knew Yin Jiao's thoughts, he would definitely scoff.Nowadays, most ordinary people in the world might not even know that the emperor has changed. The ghosts know who Yin Jiao is and what embarrassing things he has done.

When the emperor cares too much about face and ignores what is really good and bad, he will gradually become no different from a tyrant.

Grand Master Wen can see what is right and wrong, good and bad, but he can't see Yin Jiao's thoughts clearly, so the end is to be locked up, and the reason is easier to find. Grand Master Wen and Taoist Li Huo are both members of the Jiejiao.

The court was in an uproar, and it was heard that the grand master was imprisoned. This was a turmoil that King Zhou had never experienced when he was in power.

Although King Zhou likes sensuality, he also knows how to delegate power, and the world is peaceful when he hangs up the host.Just a month after Wen Taishi was arrested, the court began to be in chaos.

It’s not that the court would not be transferred without Grand Master Wen, but that Yin Jiao took the work of Grand Master Wen to himself, to prove that he could do better than Grand Master Wen, and that he could be a good emperor without this person .

However, Yin Jiao is not as good as Wen Taishi in terms of experience and wisdom.

Received the information that the court officials were suspected of taking bribes, Yin Jiao ordered a thorough investigation within three days, but he didn't know that it would take one day for the imperial decree to be sent back, and another day for it to be sent back. What's the point?
The same goes for other government affairs, the promotion of officials, the allocation of various money and so on.Yin Jiao is not ignorant, but he demands perfection in everything, and this is the biggest problem.

Governing a big country is like cooking a small fish. You must not rush for quick success, nor go to extremes, but Yinjiao has committed both.

But the emperor cannot be questioned, the people below can only deal with the matter, but Yin Jiao is not the kind of fool who can be fooled casually, he can see that his subordinates are deceiving him, which makes him even more angry .

As a result, a few heads were lost, and a group of ministers were arrested and imprisoned.

Then, the government became more chaotic.

At this time, Jiang Ziya rode Sixiang to Chaoge.

Yin Jiao attaches great importance to the reputation of Chanjiao, especially at this time, Jujiao has become a thorn in his side.

Jiang Ziya met Yin Jiao for half a day, and Yin Jiao made him prime minister the next day. In the next half a month, he took care of the messy government affairs in an orderly manner.It is a bit strange that this Jiang Taigong who was supposed to prosper the Zhou Dynasty for 800 years has now become the prime minister of the Shang Dynasty.

During this period of time, Tang Lin was well prepared on Xiqi's side, and the army was ready to go, as long as a suitable time, they could go out.

But at this time, when the news came that Jiang Ziya had become prime minister, Tang Lin knew it was time to act.

The Battle of the Conferred Gods has become very clear, and it is still Xiqi's defeat of Chaoge, but he thought he was on Chaoge's side, but he did not expect to be on Xiqi's side in the end.

But this is not a big problem, as long as you sweep the past all the way.

On the same day, Xiqi sent troops to attack Chaoge in the name of the second prince Yin Hong.

Instead of Chaoge's advance attack, Xiqi sent troops directly.At the time of swearing-in, the momentum was so great that everyone in the world knew that Xiqi dispatched [-] troops and sent troops to Sishui Pass.

Chaoge heard it, and Yin Jiao hurriedly summoned Jiang Ziya to discuss.Nowadays, most of the officials in the court still think that Yin Jiao's biggest mistake is Wen Taishi's imprisonment, and that Xiqi's rebellion against business is also caused by Yin Jiao.

This is different from the rebellion of the Beihai princes. Xiqi is one of the four major princes, accounting for one-third of the world's city walls.Moreover, the banner they played was Yin Hong, the second prince whose arm had been cut off by Yin Jiao and had to escape from Chaoge.

It can be said that both of them are heirs to the throne of Genzheng Miaohong, and there is no rule for the eldest son to succeed to the throne at this time, otherwise King Zhou would not be able to become emperor.

Brothers' dispute, it's better for him to be a minister not to talk, who knows who will win in the end?
In this case, Jiang Ziya became the only minister in Yin Jiao who could be trusted completely, because all the interests of Chanjiao were tied to him.

Jiang Ziya also knew that this battle was inevitable, and he had to deal with it cautiously, so he immediately advised Yin Jiao to recall all the generals who were guarding Chaoge and related to the interception to Chaoge and wait for their punishment. execution.

As for Sishui Pass, they mobilized the whole country's troops to go there, and decided to fight Xiqi here.In the Battle of the Conferred Gods, mortal soldiers are only auxiliary, and the real decisive battle requires the action of the gods.

Therefore, the so-called strategic depth is meaningless. For gods, traveling thousands of miles a day is just leisure, and there is no way to rob food. These conventional methods of mortal warfare are completely useless.

The only thing that can be done is to choose a location, prepare the formation in advance, and then the two armies will have a decisive battle. There is absolutely no fancy tricks at all.

Therefore, the national forces gathered at Sishui Pass, and all the immortals of Chanjiao were ready to fight to the death with Jiejiao at Sishui Pass.Moreover, they also accounted for a big advantage.

At this time, they are the defensive side, so they have a geographical advantage and can deal with it through formations.At that time, even if he intercepts the teaching to attack, he will be smashed in front of the formation.In front of the formation, ten more Kong Xuan are useless.

It's just that everyone should be very clear about this advantage. Since Daoist Lihuo showed up, various means have emerged one after another. Knowing that Chaoge has a great advantage, he should divide his troops into several places to make use of the superiority in the number of teachers. Why did you choose this decisive battle?
How did Jiang Ziya know that Tang Lin was going to play a decisive battle.

How did the original Battle of the Conferred Gods be defeated?It's just refueling tactics that keep sending heads.Those generals with names and surnames, Chonghouhu, Zhang Guifang, Yu Hua, the four generals of the Mo family, Wen Taishi, Kong Xuan... a group of people gathered together and didn't crush Xiqi, but they wanted to go up one by one. I have to send them one by one.

On Xiqi's side, the whole family goes up together, Su Hu's family, Li Jing's family, and Huang Feihu's family, and the four pioneers of Nezha, Lei Zhenzi, Yang Jian and Huang Tianhua will fight together.

The strong fighters in the back also sent off one by one, three nights who came out only after Zhao Gongming died, and Yu Yuan who came out only after Yu Hua died... Isn't this division of troops really an undercover agent?
Tang Linzhang has the authority bestowed by the sage, and as the sixth personal successor of Jiejiao, he can command everyone in the sect.The direct disciples of the Holy Mother of Jinling were not good at commanding, but Tang Lin was not polite to the disciples who were lower than Tang Lin.

Before going out for the expedition, he went to Biyou Palace and brought out all the Jiejiao disciples who were not in closed-door training.This time it was a decisive battle, and we had to use absolute force to beat Jiang Ziya's men to the point of doubting their lives, and surrendered directly.

It is claimed that Xiqi dispatched [-] troops, but that is an exaggerated figure even including the logistics auxiliary troops. In fact, [-] is not bad.

After all, Prime Minister Cao of the later generations also claimed to be 80. It is not easy for the population of this era to produce [-] troops.

Xiqi's army marched out, and the road was full of smoke and dust.Halfway through the journey, they encountered an ambush prepared by Jiang Ziya, and hundreds of cavalry rushed out from both sides.

With a [-]-strong army marching, the team would have been very long. In addition, there were large dense forests on both sides of this section of the road, especially when Qingqi ambushed.

This was the first confrontation, and Jiang Ziya rode Sixiang, watching the ambush from high above.Seeing the dust raised by Xiqi's troops, Jiang Ziya couldn't help but frowned. How far could soldiers go in such a dusty environment?Before reaching Sishui Pass, most of the soldiers will fall down.

Moreover, this kind of smoke doesn't look like infantry coming out. Could it be that all Xiqi dispatched were cavalry?Whatever the reason, it's important to test the truth.

However, when these cavalry rushed into the team, they didn't see any soldiers running around in a panic, not even a single person.What the cavalrymen bumped into was a wall of steel walls, and their horses and men pretended to be a mass of flesh and blood.

After being ambushed, the team stopped instantly, and the smoke slowly subsided.Only then did Jiang Ziya see that what he was ambushing were not Xiqi soldiers at all, but huge steel fortresses.

There are hundreds of Baxia personnel carriers in a row, and there is no end in sight.

Many functions have been reduced, focusing on transportation volume and terrain adaptability. Other deformation functions and vehicle-mounted weapons have been removed. This simplified version of the Baxia personnel carrier can be mass-produced.It is a long way from Xiqi City to send troops to Sishuiguan, so of course they have to use troop carriers.

Although it's just a rough dirt road, it's a bit difficult for a horse to run up, but it's still not a problem for the super-large seven pairs of road wheels, which crushed all the way and directly flattened the rough road.

When these cavalry rushed over, they found that what they had bumped into was a steel fortress, and they were heartbroken one by one.Those who were lucky were killed on the spot, and those who were unlucky were caught in the track and crushed half of their bodies, and could crawl on the ground for two to three minutes before dying.

As for those who did not hit, they were also killed by the machine gun loaded on the car.

In a short period of time, hundreds of light cavalry were almost wiped out, and only a few who seemed to be favored by heavenly luck managed to escape.

This is really heavy damage, hundreds of cavalry ambushed, but not even a single enemy was killed.Jiang Ziya frowned, he didn't expect Xiqi to have such a weapon of war.

"Before the Battle of the North Sea, I heard it was mentioned in the grand master's battle report, but unfortunately I didn't pay attention to it at the beginning. However, this steel fortress alone cannot attack Sishui Pass."

Jiang Ziya is over 70 years old, and he will no longer be affected by temporary success or failure.

It's just that not everyone will be like Jiang Ziya before the mountain collapses and remain unchanged.The huge steel fortress of the Xiqi Army has spread among the defenders of Sishuiguan. Coupled with the annihilation of the light cavalry troops, these steel fortresses are even more terrifying.

Jiang Ziya knew that this would happen a long time ago, so he quickly isolated these soldiers to prevent the rumors from spreading.

However, what Jiang Ziya never expected was that before Xiqi's army came to Sishui Street, a small group of cavalry came back. It was the same cavalry that had been killed in an ambush before.

Hundreds of cavalry entered the pass, and now they couldn't hide it.Just seeing these hundreds of people entering the customs, Jiang Ziya could already imagine what would happen next.

Sure enough, after half a day, Taoist Lihuo's words began to spread in Sishuiguan: "The cycle of life and death is in my hands, Taoist Lihuo. Those who follow me will live and those who oppose me will die!"

Can revive the killed enemy army, what about Xiqi's soldiers?

Facing an opponent who can be resurrected, how can this battle be fought?
Although Jiang Ziya had never heard the saying that attacking the heart is the top priority, and attacking the city is the bottom, he understood what Taoist Li Huo meant.

The big formation set up by Sishuiguan does not only rely on educating the golden immortals, but also requires a large number of mortal soldiers to assist.Originally, Chaoge's elite soldiers were much better quality than Xiqi's soldiers, and they had the advantages of home field and numbers. They didn't expect Taoist Lihuo to come up with such a move.

This opponent is really very difficult to deal with.

Ten days later, the Xiqi army finally arrived in front of Sishui Pass, and began to set up camp ten miles away.According to Jiang Ziya's idea, the tents of the [-] troops were ready, and trenches had to be dug to put the antlers in. These preparations would have to wait at least two days.

Unexpectedly, in just half a day, the Xiqi Army began to attack the city.

What surprised Jiang Ziya even more was that they couldn't see half of the Xiqi Army, but only heard continuous bangs.
