Chapter 139 Jiang Shang enters Xiqi, Yin Shang goes to war, Xiqi breaks through the city gates, and the difficult Sanshan Pass Shouyang Guang called Jiang Ziya who was practicing. "Disciple pays homage to master." Jiang Ziya has grown up. "You have been practicing for a long time. Today I want to test you." Hua Guang swung out a beam of light. In the beam of light, one can see the ruined scene of Da Shang, with the people displaced and with nowhere to settle down. At the same time, scenes of Xiqi also flashed by, where the people lived and worked in peace and contentment. "What do you see from this picture?" Jiang Ziya's path of cultivation is very peaceful, and now he is just a celestial being. But the way of a sage lies not in cultivation, but in the heart.
Hua Guang wanted to hear Jiang Ziya's ideas. "Master, the fortune of the Shang Dynasty is gone. Now the fortune of the world is flowing to Xiqi." "The Shang Dynasty has lost the support of the people and is slaughtering and oppressing innocent people. This is a matter of life and death." "Xiqi wins the hearts of the people, complies with the will of heaven, and will prosper." Jiang Ziya analyzed every step, but Hua Guang was not satisfied. "What else can you see?" From what he said, it was not what Hua Guang wanted. Jiang Ziya recalled the scene just now. "Da Shang now has a chance of survival in the midst of death, but it seems powerful, but it is just a fluorescent light. Although the fire of Xiqi is small, it has the potential to grow stronger." Hua Guang nodded. "In that case, do you have any objections to my going to Xiqi to help?" Jiang Ziya shook his head. "I will obey my master's orders." He had a clear idea of what was good and what was evil, and he believed that Jiang Ziya already had his own ideas. Hua Guang would let him go down the mountain. Jiang Ziya entered Xiqi. He soon showed his own views, which coincided with Jifa's. And because Jiang Ziya was a disciple of Hua Guang, he and Bo Yikao were fellow apprentices. Jifa missed his father and brother. He took Jiang Ziya as his teacher and treated him as a father and brother.
"King Wu, the Shang Dynasty is now in ruins. In order to liberate those who are suffering." “It’s time to turn our attention to Dashang.” Jifa has been waiting for the opportunity. Now, Jiang Ziya said that the time has come. Naturally, he had no objection and agreed. "I will listen to what Taigong says." Xiqi finally sent troops. It was in accordance with the will of heaven, coupled with Jiang Ziya's talent as a leader. When the troops were dispatched, there were 600,000 soldiers in Xiqi, and their numbers increased instead of decreasing as the march progressed. A million soldiers passed through five passes and captured Mianchi County. Finally arrived at Sanshan Pass. The terrain here is steep and it is said that no one can pass it. As long as we pass this place, the expedition against Emperor Xin will be almost half successful. However, this is also the most difficult level. Kong Xuan was guarding Sanshan Pass. Xiqi has been marching for several days and is now stationed a thousand meters outside the pass. He gathered his strength and planned to capture Sanshan Pass. …… After Xiqi sent out troops, it successively broke through several border passes of the Shang Dynasty. Emperor Xin was a little scared. He has handed over the important task to Shen Gongbao. But now Xiqi has taken advantage of the opportunity. He was angry and summoned Shen Gongbao. "National Master, I asked you to come here, not to let you live out your days in peace, so why can Xiqi show up at Sanshan Pass so brazenly?" face questioning. Shen Gongbao asked Emperor Xin to be patient. "My lord, everything is under control. They can't break through the Three Mountain Pass." Shen Gongbao responded very affirmatively.
But Emperor Xin didn't believe him. "Xiqi is just a vassal state, yet it dares to confront the Shang Dynasty. We must dampen its spirit." He lost his absolute faith in Shen Gongbao. Daji spoke at this time. "My king, since you don't trust the Imperial Master, why don't you appoint the Grand Marshal of the Three Armies and have the two of them attack Xiqi together?" Daji gave her opinion. Emperor Xin thought it made sense. "What my beloved concubine said is very much in line with my heart." But soon, he became embarrassed. "But now, who can do it?" Emperor Xin had not been involved in state affairs for a long time. How to know who to trust. Daji gave the answer. "Your Majesty, among the immortals who entered Chaoge before, there was one who was extremely powerful." Emperor Xin was very curious. "who is it?" "Yu Hua." Emperor Xin did not know Yu Hua, but after this name appeared. Shen Gongbao was obviously panicked. "Your Majesty, this man is brave but not wise..." Shen Gongbao still wants to continue to pull down and criticize. Then Emperor Xin spoke. "In that case, let's accept Yu Hua as the commander-in-chief of the three armies, and let the national master go with him. Is there any problem?" Shen Gongbao hesitated to speak and finally withdrew. As he left, he had a smile on his face. She and Daji worked together to completely trap Emperor Xin. He was not afraid of Yu Hua. Shen Gongbao now wishes that all the people from Jiejiao can become generals. Only in this way can the conflicts be intensified during the kalpa.
Soon, the order came down. Emperor Xin asked Shen Gongbao and Yu Hua to lead the army and march to Sanshan Pass three days later. Xiqi must be taken. Before leaving. Emperor Xin appeared before the three armies. "My dear ministers, when you return victoriously, I will build a temple for you to be worshipped by thousands of people." Shen Gongbao and Yu Hua bowed and saluted. "Thank you, Your Majesty." After leaving Chaoge. Yu Hua has a better impression of Shen Gongbao. This time he can become the commander-in-chief of the three armies. This majestic feeling makes Yu Hua feel invincible. "This time I can become the commander-in-chief of the three armies and achieve great success, all thanks to the national teacher." Yu Hua was very grateful. "General, you are being modest. It is precisely because you have the ability that the king chose you. Otherwise, my words alone would not count." Yu Hua felt light-headed. The two went to Sanshan Pass. …… Sanshan Pass. Kong Xuan was the defending general. He looked at the Xiqi army outside the city without any expression on his face. "General, the number of Xiqi's troops far exceeds ours. Can we still defend Sanshan Pass?" The generals under Kong Xuan were a little worried. Xiqi's attack speed was so fast that it broke through many checkpoints in just a few days. The morale of the Shang Dynasty was low, and the soldiers had no confidence that they could defeat the Xiqi army that appeared. Kong Xuan drew his long sword. He was beheaded, blood splattered on the spot, and the conference hall fell silent. Kong Xuan looked at everyone present. "With the enemy at hand, you dare to encourage others. Pass the order down. This is the result of talking nonsense. Keep your mouth shut." Kong Xuan emphasized again.
"I am here, what do you have to fear from Xiqi? Let them come, I will capture Ji Fa and destroy Xiqi." Kong Xuan was originally the first peacock in the world. He possessed innate divine power and had a strong background. Now he had reached the peak of quasi-saint status. If Hua Guang is now considered one of the strongest quasi-saints, then Kong Xuan is the strongest under the saint. A truly powerful quasi-saint. Naturally, I have the strength to say this. At this time, the soldiers of the Shang Dynasty regained their morale because of Kong Xuan's words. A day later, after resting, Xiqi prepared to take Sanshan Pass. Kong Xuan appears. He didn't waste time. "Jifa, Xiqi is not legitimate, and you dare to rebel." After hearing this, Ji Fa confronted Kong Xuan. "Emperor Xin was incompetent and unjust. The Grand Master and Junior Master all died in accidents, and the people were displaced." "You are the general guarding Sanshan Pass. Don't you know that the refugees are moving to Xiqi?" Faced with the questioning, Kong Xuan was speechless, but his eyes remained firm. "I don't care about that. Since I am the garrison commander of Da Shang today, I will naturally not let you pass." After Kong Xuan finished speaking, he asked everyone at Sanshan Pass to prepare for the battle. (End of this chapter)
