King Zhou escaped with his loyal soldiers to the western city of Xiao on the way to Changgeng.
Xiao was once the capital of the 10th king of the Great Yin Dynasty, Zhongding. Now it is in a semi-abandoned state, with few residents. Fortunately, the city has ample space, which allows King Zhou to gather his army and launch a counterattack on Changgeng.
On the other side.
Yin Jiao worshipped the ancestors of the Yin Dynasty in Changgeng city before formally ascending to the throne.
He appointed his maternal grandfather Jiang Huanchu as the Prince of Qi and Prime Minister.
The di-shi-tian, also known as Indra, was made a guru.
Yang Ren was appointed as the Commander-in-Chief of the Left Army.
Jiang Wenhan was appointed as the Heir Apparent of the Prince of Qi and the Commander-in-Chief of the Right Army.
The officials Fu Zhi and You Hun were restored to their original positions. King Yin Jiao also opened the "zhi xing" tower of King Zhou's palace, allowing them to take any gold and jade they liked.
This order must be issued, because it is said that someone has looted the treasure troves of the two eunuchs, and they have fainted in tears several times. King Yin Jiao does not want to have a reputation for being mean-spirited, so he generously spends his father's money and tells them to take whatever they fancy.
King Yin Jiao also sent letters to the old generals Lu Xiong, who was guarding the Chen Tang Pass, and Dou Rong, who was stationed at You Huan Pass. He basically said that King Yin Shou was unjust, despised by his ancestors and forebears, and that he had taken up arms against the corrupt monarchs and followed the will of heaven. He requested their surrender.
Finally, he wrote a letter to his own biological brother Yin Hong, hoping that both Xici and Donglu would join forces to attack their father first. The rest could be dealt with later.
Three hundred thousand civilians, carrying the old and supporting the young, moved very slowly.
It took three days to travel less than fifty miles.
Deng Changyu was not very anxious either, riding on horseback and occasionally looking back towards Changgeng city.
A somewhat obscure radiance often appeared in the city of Changgeng.
"Teacher, what is Changgeng doing? Do you know?"
"I do know."
"So you better tell me right away."
Nuwa smiled in the Wax Hall: "It is Indra, a disciple of Menghe, who is using the auspiciousness of human beings to attain the great dao."
Certifying the Great Dao?
Deng Changyu had never seen anyone certify the Fruit of the Great dao of Jinxian before, and couldn't help but fly to a higher altitude to gaze far into the distance.
The Grand Dao of Golden Immortals is also a great practitioner in the Hongwu world.
"Teacher, do you think he can be successful?"
Nuwa answered very straightforwardly: "I don't know, my disciples in the past trained casually and became Dao Immortals. To be honest, I'm not very familiar with the difficulties of this path, but as for me, I didn't find it particularly difficult."
Deng Changyu: "You are truly remarkable!"
She was nervous for two days, worried that the disciple of Menghe would obtain the Fruit of the Great dao and then come to kill her.
If the opponent had some abilities related to time or space, and if they were far away by eight hundred miles, she would not have much room to resist. She could only use her ultimate move and cry for help, "Teacher, save me!"
However, after waiting for two days, she felt that the other person must have encountered some trouble.
The barrier between Tao Immortals and Grand Dao Immortals is very difficult to break, and even the Fruit of the Grand dao is nonexistent. What are you talking about? You can't just say you have obtained it!
She used the law of watching qi yun to look and found that Yin Jiao's qi yun dropped significantly.
This Indra must have been thinking of hitting hard and fast, reaping a windfall and then running away. But he didn't expect that Yin Jiao's qi yun foundation was unstable, and his qi yun was dropping minute by minute. He used this to certify the Fruit of the Grand Dao Immortal, which ultimately turned the entire operation into a mirage or a mirage, as if it were a joke.
The farther away from Changgeng city the team travels, the higher the restlessness of the team's emotions.
When there was a threat to life, the Deng family said what to do and the people did what to do. Now that there is no danger to life, if they are still required to transport various armor, weapons, and provisions, many people have complaints.
These are all citizens of the country, with a higher status than the "outsider" civilians. Strong coercion can only lead to a negative effect.
The leaders of the reactionary military group discussed it and finally, Deng Changyu sighed: "Send them money, let's say it's an employment contract."
It is said that no profit without work. Previously, they were working for free, but now with the rewards, their vitality and vigor have immediately changed.
Deng Changyu took away the wealth of Fei Zhong and You Hun, but it was just to seek mental clarity. To her, these gold and silver treasures were not of much use.
It was distributed to the people, who were asked to carry it. Once they reached the Nancheng, they could consume it. In fact, it wouldn't take long for it to be returned.
She distributed it very generously.
Golden ingots, silver ingots, various jades, agates, and pearls were all distributed as compensation to the common people.
Even the pillow of the River King Jing in the past was distributed.
Of course, there are those who want to seize it, but the 40,000 troops are not idle. Zhang Gui Fang and evil Lai are among those who can face ten thousand men. Ordinary people don't have the ability to do so.
With the distribution of a large amount of treasure, the morale of the troops soared significantly.
Those little palace girls saved by Jiao Gu were all shining their eyes with gold, pushing their carts as fast as they could. The little palace girl who got the pillow of the River King Jing from Jing He was also transformed from "I am not like that" to "Don't treat me as a human" in just one day.
Leaving Changgeng city, Deng Changyu no longer had any taboos in her use of magic. She used the magic of scattering beans into soldiers to create a large number of bean soldiers to help push carts and carry people, which effectively increased the speed of the main force by one-tenth.
When crossing the Yellow River, she also took out the Xuan Yuan Control Water Flag to create a stone bridge over ten or more zhang (about 33 to 50 feet) wide, spanning the great river.
It took the common people who were pushing various grains and armor two days to cross the river, but when the main force entered the first stop after crossing the river in the southern part of the river, Yan Prefecture, they were still stopped.
Yan Prefecture is just a small county, and the number of troops is not many. However, the commander Zhang Kuai still led his troops and tightly blocked the road.
Zhang Kuai rode on the unicorn-like black smoke beast, holding a long sword.
He pointed his sword at the crowd and said, "Lord Chongcheng Wang and General Deng, without the King's orders, you two cannot pass through this city guarded by me!"
Huang Fei Hu is in a difficult situation. He knows that Zhang Kuai has strange abilities. If his side is fewer in numbers, they can easily bypass the city of Yan Prefecture. However, now with three hundred thousand common people, it's not possible to bypass it anymore.
The troops in Yan Prefecture are not numerous, appearing to be around five or six thousand. However, Zhang Kuai occupies a strategically important position. Now, to the north is the recently crossed Yellow River, to the west is Yan Prefecture, to the east are mountains, and there is only a central road leading south.
Deng Changyu rode on the Biaozi and looked at Zhang Kuai from a distance twice.
It was this fellow and Gao Lanying who, in collaboration, turned the relationship between Deng Changyu from the original timeline and Huang Fei Hu, Chong Hei Hu, and others into 'We may not be born on the same year, month, and day, but we wish to die on the same year, month, and day'. They literally let them fall on the path before the final chapter of a big story, which is frustrating to think about.
This guy killed Huang Fei Hu, Chong Hei Hu, and five other mountains. Adding to that, he had two people with him - TU XINGSUN and DENG CHANGYU. In the end, he was awarded the title of "Seven Kill Star" by Old Jiang. What does that mean? Is it to commemorate his achievement of seven kills in a single battle?
Zhang Kuai is skilled in earth walking techniques, which can be understood as a taller version of Tu Xingsun. Deng Changyu has no hostile intentions towards this person, but she also doesn't have any positive feelings for him.
She looked over to Deng Jiugong's side. As someone with "righteousness", it would be easy for her to kill Yin Zhou generals and thus damage her own blessings. It's not convenient for her to directly take action.
On Deng Jiugong's side, a general is randomly chosen to engage in a duel with Zhang Kuai. While she takes the opportunity to break his earth-walking technique, she then plays to the tradition of West Qi of surrounding and attacking from all sides. A group of generals charge in a massive rush, overwhelming Zhang Kuai until he dies.
