Xiaoyouzhutian, send Yi Xiaochuan to the palace to start
Chapter 689: Wen Zhong takes command, and a war is about to begin
Liu Hao looked at the name on the Conferred God List and remembered the title of god that Bo Yikao was given after his death. The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, "Zhongtian Ziwei Beiji Great Emperor?"
"Although you were the one who pushed the Conferred God War to break out, it seems that you don't have any other achievements. If you were one of the Four Heavenly Kings, I'm afraid the entire Three Realms would laugh at you."
You know, the status of the Four Emperors in Heaven is second only to the Jade Emperor, that is, Liu Hao. Bo Yikao is not only well-read, but also a good person. However, in Liu Hao's opinion, he is not qualified to take on such a big responsibility.
Especially in his heaven, when quasi-saints are everywhere and golden immortals are as numerous as dogs...it is indeed unqualified for such a young boy to be the Emperor of Ziwei Beiji.
"Well, since you have made some contributions, you can be made the God of Wealth. I guess Zhao Gongming won't be included in the Conferred God List this time, right?"
"Well, the pace is too slow. It's time for Kong Xuan and the others to take the initiative."
After saying that, Liu Hao stretched out a finger and lightly pointed it at the air. A purple light instantly flew towards Chaoge.
Just when Liu Hao informed Kong Xuan, earth-shaking changes had already taken place in the world.
At this time, a day had passed on earth. When Ji Chang heard the bad news about Bo Yikao, he was heartbroken. He spat out a mouthful of blood, and his whole body became more haggard in an instant, with grief and reluctance in his eyes.
"My son..." Ji Chang's lips kept trembling, his voice was hoarse, and he looked heartbroken.
Jiang Ziya sighed softly. He had never expected that Bo Yikao would die like this. He hadn't even contributed a bit...
"King Wen, now that things have come to this, there is no need to add to the grief. I calculated that the eldest son was destined to have this disaster, and I thought it could be resolved. Unfortunately, this is God's will, and we cannot change it."
"Now that Xiqi has a strong army and sufficient food and grass, we can raise the banner of justice and call on the princes of the world to join us in our cause and attack Chaoge! Only in this way can we avenge the eldest son!"
Jiang Ziya came to Ji Chang and whispered to comfort him.
After hearing this, Ji Chang's eyes lit up with a hint of ruthlessness. He nodded and said in a deep voice: "Sir, you are right. Emperor Xin dared to kill my son. Ji Chang will definitely seek justice for my son!"
At the same time, in the Xiqi military camp, Ji Fa was inspecting the soldiers with full concentration.
He was dressed in armor, looking majestic, with the spear in his hand flashing with cold light, revealing a murderous aura.
Just then, a messenger hurried over and whispered something in his ear. When Ji Fa heard that Bo Yikao died in a foreign land, his face instantly turned pale and full of grief and anger.
He thrust the spear in his hand into the ground and shouted, "Emperor Xin is unjust and killed my brother. I swear I will not be a human being if I don't avenge him!"
The roar was like a thunder, reverberating over the training ground and causing pain in everyone's eardrums.
When the soldiers saw this, they were outraged and they raised their arms and shouted, "Revenge! Revenge! Revenge!" Because Bo Yikao's prestige in Xiqi was not low, many people had received Bo Yikao's kindness.
One day later, the army was ready. The entire Xiqi, together with the soldiers secretly recruited by the Ji family, had a total of 150,000 people, and nearly half of them were new recruits who had never been on the battlefield.
With such combat power, if no one helps them, they will never be able to defeat Chaoge until they die.
Because of the influence of anger, Ji Chang and Ji Fa did not think too much and directly assembled the army. Of course, they were affected by anger, but they were not stupid.
The backers behind them have not moved yet. As long as they move, they will definitely win. Of course, that's what they think.
They set out in a mighty force, with high morale and unstoppable momentum, and soon captured some cities around Xiqi.
In just a few days, Ji Chang's territory expanded by half.
Due to Ji Chang's instigation and his reputation around Xiqi, wherever he went, the people responded one after another, either sending food or joining the army, making Xiqi's power grow stronger over time.
Seeing this, Ji Chang struck while the iron was hot. He continued to recruit soldiers and intensified their training, and was very busy.
The army increased by a huge amount of 100,000 in just a few days. Of course, don't think that these people joined the army willingly.
You know, it was very difficult to get enough food in that era. Some people had no choice but to work as slaves for Ji Chang in order to fill their stomachs.
He originally thought that the situation was going well, but who would have thought that before dawn that day, a messenger came to inform him that the Shang army had been spotted twenty miles away.
A messenger came running over to report, "Report! Your Majesty, the Shang army was spotted twenty miles away!" The messenger's voice was filled with anxiety and panic.
After hearing this, Ji Chang's brows frowned instantly and a serious look flashed in his eyes.
He didn't expect that Emperor Xin had made preparations in just a few days. After a moment of silence, Ji Chang whispered, "Pass the order down, the whole army should be on alert, don't panic!"
Afterwards, Ji Chang hurried to find Jiang Ziya and told him the news.
"Sir, now that we are facing the enemy, how should our army respond? I hope you can give me some advice." Ji Chang was now very respectful to Jiang Ziya.
During this period, there were such great achievements in the war, and Jiang Ziya alone accounted for half of the credit, which can be said to be his indispensable contribution.
Jiang Ziya stroked his beard and spoke slowly after a moment, "Don't worry, my king. The enemy's reaction speed is so fast, I guess they are not many in number. Plus, they have traveled thousands of miles, so they must be exhausted."
"Although our army is large in number, most of them are newly recruited soldiers. If we attack rashly, we may suffer heavy losses."
"Why not send out a few troops first, pretend to attack, find out the enemy's strength, and then take your time."
Ji Chang nodded slightly and went out to pass the message without thinking.
Ji Fa, who was reorganizing his troops at this time, heard Ji Chang's order and, despite Ji Chang's objection, personally led several cavalry units towards the Shang army.
Seeing that Ji Fa was so reckless, Ji Chang was very worried about his safety, and immediately ordered two generals to lead tens of thousands of troops to go and rescue Ji Fa.
About a quarter of an hour later, the vanguard led by Ji Fa saw the Shang Dynasty's army galloping towards them.
Seeing the densely packed Shang army, Ji Fa's scalp went numb. He couldn't believe that Emperor Xin had mobilized so many soldiers in such a short time.
Little did he know that before they openly rebelled, Emperor Xin had secretly ordered Huang Feihu to mobilize an army of 200,000 and prepare for war.
After beheading Bo Yikao, Emperor Xin directly appointed Wen Zhong as the commander, and appointed Huang Feihu and Li Jing as the left and right vanguard generals to attack Ji Chang.
Wen Zhong was sitting on the back of a mighty black unicorn. He saw the enemy army about a mile ahead, less than 10,000 cavalrymen, and sneered, "Why don't you get off your horses and surrender!"
"Otherwise, my Great Shang Iron Cavalry will kill you on your horse!"
His voice was not loud, but Ji Fa and the others heard it clearly. Ji Fa's heart tightened, "Wen Zhong? Why is it him? Emperor Xin really thinks highly of us..."
At this time, Wen Zhong also saw the leading general in front, who was Ji Fa, and he immediately laughed.
"Ji Fa, why don't you surrender quickly? Soldiers, who is willing to let me capture Ji Fa?"
