Chaoge of the Yin and Shang capitals.
The once most prosperous city in the country is indeed extremely desolate at this time.
Almost all the people in the city have fled, and there are almost no soldiers and ministers loyal to Chengtang left.
A figure walked slowly along the wide bluestone-paved avenue where there was no one.
This road is the official road leading from the palace to the city gate. It was once crowded with traders and people, but now there are only debris discarded everywhere, and withered yellow leaves moving in the wind on the ground.
Outside Chaoge City is a million-strong Xiqi army, with flags fluttering and thousands of horses neighing. A victorious army with strong morale can deter all invading enemies from a distance.
Wuming held a simple long sword in his hand and wore a thin black robe, the hem of which rustled in the cold wind.
It seems so lonely and lonely!
nameless!
He is now the last king of the Yin and Shang Dynasties.
Xiqi captured all the cities in Chengtang except Chaoge, but Chengtang's people's support was not completely lost.
Chengtang's people's hearts are still higher than Xiqi's.
Popular support!
In other words, the public sentiments of Xiqi and Chengtang at this time are not the same thing.
The people of Xiqi belong to the nobility, and the nobility are the people of Xiqi!
The people of Chengtang are the people, and the people are still the people of Chengtang at this time.
The common people do not care who is in charge of the world. What they care about is today's three meals a day. In this era when only one person in a thousand people can read, they have almost no way of obtaining information about changes in the current situation.
Ordinary people recognized Chengtang, which was the result of five hundred years of subtle changes in the Shang Dynasty.
Xiqi defeated King Zhou Di Xin too quickly.
One year!
In just one year!
Just hit Chaoge from Xiqi!
This dynasty change is not a bottom-up overthrow at all, but a top-down replacement of agents.
so,
Xiqi has not yet had time to brainwash all the ordinary people and transform them from the people of Chengtang into the people of Xiqi.
The popular sentiment of ordinary people is very mysterious, but in fact it is of little use.
Because ordinary people are ignorant.
The public mind can be fooled!
As long as someone is good at inciting public opinion, the public sentiment of ordinary people will be like a knife.
An inexpensive knife that you can use anytime!
Although it is cruel, the public sentiment of ordinary people does not matter in major matters.
Therefore, Xiqi has never really paid attention to the public sentiment of these ordinary people!
Therefore!
People's hearts are still in business!
The people's hearts are still unknown!
This popular sentiment was of little use to Ji Fa in taking over the world, but it was of great use to Wu Ming.
Wuming is Wang Ming's clone.
Not interested in secular kingship!
The reason why he came to Chaoge City to take over the throne from Di Xin was all for the next battle.
Wuming's eyes were cloudy as he glanced at the red sky reflected by the blood energy emitted by Xiqi's army of millions.
He doesn't want to get into troubled waters, but the calamity in his body must be resolved, otherwise his journey to the heavens will end here.
Outside the city, millions of troops, third-generation disciples of Chanjiao, second-generation disciples of Chanjiao, and many casual cultivators fishing in troubled waters are waiting!
Those are the enemies Wuming will face.
Wuming's steps were slow, but extremely determined.
Every time he takes a step, the fairy spirit in him will fade a little, and his cultivation level will also drop a little.
The distance from Chengtang Palace to Chaoge City Gate Tower is very long.
Wuming just relied on his own legs to walk over step by step.
His cultivation at the peak of True Immortality is declining!
As he gets closer to the city gate tower, his immortal cultivation level becomes lower.
True Immortal Dzogchen!
The late stage of true immortality!
The middle stage of true immortality!
…
Unknowingly, the gate of Chaoge City arrived.
The nameless eyes lingered on the old city gate for a while. At this time, there was no soldier guarding the city, only corpses crawling on the ground, and cold bluestone city bricks dyed red with blood.
These dead people can be said to be the last defenders of Chengtang!
Wuming shook his head, then took a deep breath to disperse the distracting thoughts in his mind, his eyes instantly firm.
At the same time, the sword energy on his body exploded, smashing the city gate into pieces.
"Peng!"
"Peng!"
Wuming slowly walked out of the city gate!
His eyes were as sharp and unstoppable as a sword, scanning the gods, immortals, demons and humans in the audience.
"Who are you?"
A civilian-looking man from Xiqi's army came out and shouted loudly.
Wuming did not answer, but glanced at the official. In an instant, thousands of sword rays erupted from his body, and he died very simply and completely.
For a moment, everyone in Xiqi's army became alert.
A large number of guards protected Wu Wang Jifa in the middle, three layers inside and three layers outside, for fear that something would happen to him.
"I'm Jiang Shang! I don't know who your friend is?" Jiang Shang, who was full of white hair, asked.
But Wuming still stood silently in front of the army.
Yang Jian in the Xiqi Army was also shocked when he saw Wuming's figure. He immediately walked up to Jiang Ziya and whispered in his ear: "Uncle Master, I know this man. His cultivation level is not inferior to mine. He is an extremely difficult person." opponent."
When Jiang Ziya heard this, he immediately understood. At this time, most of the second-generation disciples of Chan Cult were already half-disabled. Jiang Ziya did not want to attack enemies who were similar to Yang Jian in cultivation.
I thought it would be best if I could persuade him to leave.
"Looking at the method just now, I guess my fellow Taoist is also an accomplished cultivator. He should know destiny and know the current affairs. Why should he stop my righteous king from Xiqi from attacking Shang and destroying Zhou?" Jiang Ziya said.
Wuming looked strange and said: "Why did you conquer Shang and destroy Zhou?"
Jiang Ziya said loudly and righteously, "King Zhou, don't use noble relatives, use slaves instead."
"Do not respect ghosts and gods, and do not pay attention to sacrifices."
"Use the villain."
"Stubborn and self-willed, militaristic"
"Listen to women."
"alcoholism,
"Lewd and immoral, I favor the Demon Queen."
"Aren't the above crimes enough to overthrow King Zhou, a cruel, licentious, and extravagant king?" Jiang Ziya listed the crimes of King Zhou in perfect detail. At the same time, he used his magic power to spread the waves, making millions The whole army can hear it.
Obviously Jiang Ziya understands the principle of being famous.
After Jiang Ziya finished talking about these crimes, his aura became stronger, and the powerful figures in the Xiqi army straightened up a bit.
"Hahahaha!!!!" A very wild laughter resounded across the battlefield.
Jiang Ziya frowned and said, "Why are you laughing?"
"Laughing at ridiculous people! Laughing at ridiculous things!"
Jiang Ziya's eyes turned evil.
Wuming said in a mocking tone: "The first crime of Emperor Xin is not to use noble relatives, but to use slaves. Don't you mean that Emperor Xin can only use relatives, and then the whole world's grandfather is an official, his son is an official, and his grandson is also an official. Grandpa is The pig-killer, the son is also a pig-killer, and the grandson is also a pig-killer. According to this point of view, your Jiang Shang ancestors were also slaves, and you were reused by Ji Fa at this time. Ji Fa also committed the first major crime. .”
"Di Xin gave you, Jiang Shang, a non-noble person like you, a chance to rise and change your destiny, but the result was the worst. It turns out that you, Xiqi, only want to be poor, and you should be poor from generation to generation. If we continue to be poor, our ancestors will only be able to serve the so-called nobles for generations?"
As soon as these words came out, the entire battlefield fell silent, and then became noisy.
The soldiers in Xiqi's army began to whisper among themselves.
Jiang Ziya and Ji Fa's expressions changed when they heard this.
Yang Jian and Nezha in Xiqi's army fell into deep thought, and looked at Jiang Ziya with a somewhat strange expression.
Wuming continued: "The second rule is, don't respect ghosts and gods, don't pay attention to sacrifices?"
"Di Xin didn't say no sacrifices to ghosts and gods, he just abolished the need for human sacrifices to ghosts and gods."
Wuming swept the entire audience with a sharp sword-like gaze and said coldly: "You are also a disciple of Xuanmen. Don't you know that the ghosts and gods who use human beings to sacrifice are all evil gods? Is it wrong for Emperor Xin not to use human beings to sacrifice ghosts and gods?"
"Or maybe you, Xiqi, are offering sacrifices to evil gods and demons? During the sacrifice, you want to use me, a good man from the human race, as food for the demons. What's your intention?"
When Jiang Shang was about to retort, Wuming stared at Jiang Ziya closely. Wuming's terrifying sword intent suppressed Jiang Ziya mentally, making it difficult for him to speak.
"Why does Emperor Xin kiss a villain? Among you nobles and officials, who are not sucking the blood and sweat of the people? Who of you is clean? You villains and gentlemen just have different positions."
"A gentleman and justice are just another synonym for victory."
"If Emperor Xin wins, then Ji Fa will live with the title of King Zhou, and you, Jiang Ziya, can't escape the title of villain."
The fighting spirit of Xiqi's million-strong army has basically disappeared at this time.
Wuming's words are spread with magic power, and there is also a faint hypnotic and brainwashing element in them.
At first, the ideological work done by Ji Fa and the others of Xiqi's million-strong army was okay. When they came to Chaoge, they all had the same mental state of hatred.
Now they no longer have the idea of hating King Zhou. The high-ranking officers now have the goal of making achievements, while the lower-level officers have no choice but to follow the crowd.
Especially the lower-level soldiers' affection for Xiqi has become very indifferent at this time.
The first point mentioned by Wang Ming is that King Zhou did not use noble relatives but valued slaves.
This successfully transferred the conflict between Xiqi and Yin Shang.
In other words, Xiqi was divided.
Xiqi attracted powerful nobles like Ji Fa and slaves of the lower classes.
Children and grandchildren are slaves of the poor. This... is a very desperate and heavy thought.
If they were slaves at the beginning and did not see the opportunity to become human masters, they would not be unwilling at all, but Di Xin opened the door for them and allowed them to experience the beauty.
Ji Fa and the others are now gradually losing the support of ordinary soldiers.
Wu Ming said, "You are stubborn and want to resort to violence!"
"In my opinion, it is not wrong for Emperor Xin to send troops to conquer Dongyi, and it is not wrong for everyone living in the land of Chengtang."
At this time, Yang Jian suddenly said: "Brother Wuming, you and I are also acquaintances. Yang Jian agrees with your previous point of view, but Yang Jian does not agree with you. King Zhou made great use of weapons and weapons, which wasted people and money. It caused the death and injury of the people in Chengtang and Dongyi. How can there be anything wrong with countless, heinous killings?”
Wuming nodded and said: "Killing is indeed wrong. Every human life is precious and equal, but people have different opinions. You, Yang Jian, are a mixed race of human race and god race. You have very little concept of the human race's country. In your opinion, the lives of the people in Dongyi and Chengtang are the same."
Yang Jian asked: "Isn't this wrong?"
Wuming shook his head and said, "Yes, it's also wrong! It's right in theory, but it's wrong in human nature."
"Dongyi entered Chengtang territory many times, burned, killed and looted. The people on the border were miserable. Every year, thousands of Chengtang soldiers were killed or injured in order to resist the Dongyi invasion. Emperor Xin destroyed Dongyi in one fell swoop. Although he died in this battle We have killed a lot of people, but we no longer have to die every year to resist Dongyi."
Yang Jian still frowned and said: "Isn't the life of Dongyi's human race not human life? Isn't it good for the two countries to coexist peacefully?"
Hearing this, Wuming shook his head again and said: "Yang Jian, although you have the face of a middle-aged man, your maturity and vicissitudes are all an illusion caused by Tianpeng's aging palm. You are still too young and have too little experience. You are in a very short period of time. Feeling guilty and desperate, they were influenced by the thoughts of Chang'e, Yuding and Yang Chan.
You should understand the truth that being kind to your enemies is cruel to your own people.
Kindness!
It also needs to be divided into objects.
You once had another chance to rush into Yaochi to avenge your mother, but you lost the chance because you were kind to the heavenly soldiers. "
Ji Fa saw that Yang Jian was silent, and immediately couldn't sit still and shouted coldly: "The strong words are irrational, King Zhou is immoral and immoral, he wrote obscene poems in front of the Temple of the Empress Nuwa, and it is the most unpardonable blasphemy against the Holy Mother of the human race."
Coveted for beauty, he robbed Daji, the daughter of Hou Suhu of Jizhou, and entered the palace for sexual pleasure.
Such a debauched and foolish king is truly unworthy of his virtue. "
Wuming's physical body was now cut off from Wang Ming's cause and effect by the system. He was not afraid of anything, even if he died, it would not affect his true body.
When Ji Fa said this, Wuming immediately said: "Di Xin did write a poem in front of the Nuwa Empress Temple, but the poem was very problematic. Di Xin's master was Wen Zhong, and Wen Zhong was the third generation disciple of Jie Jiao. , Jiejiao is a sect with the same leader, the saint Tongtian.
Could Emperor Xin not know the existence of Empress Nuwa?
Di Xin is not a stupid person!
If you can write about the poem, I speculate that Di Xin was controlled by someone using magic. "
Everyone present didn't feel much about this.
There were two beings who had been paying attention here, but their expressions changed, and several shocking thunders sounded in the sky.
Wang Ming raised his head and glanced at the sky, and continued without fear: "Ji Fa! You said Di Xin was lustful and debauched?"
Ji Fa said with a righteous look on his face: "The world knows that King Zhou is lustful."
Wang Ming smiled slightly and said, "Then I have a question."
"Why is it that Emperor Xin is so lustful but he only has three sons, Yin Jiao, Yin Hong, and Wu Geng.
Your father Ji Chang is not lecherous, but he has a hundred sons. Except for the adopted Lei Zhenzi, where did the ninety-nine biological sons come from? "
Nameless "This...is a question worth thinking about."
As soon as these words came out, the whole audience fell silent, and looked at Ji Fa with a strange look.
Nowadays, all ordinary people feel that their three views have been refreshed. They feel that all their past ideas and concepts are false, and they are trapped in the internal conflict of doubting life and self.
Yang Jian and Nezha were just monks who came to help from their masters. They were not too afraid of Ji Fa, and their eyes when looking at Ji Fa became a little unclear.
Ji Fa pointed at Wang Ming with trembling fingers: "You...you...you...Hu...Hu..."
After pointing for a long time, Ji Fa couldn't find a reason to refute.
Ji Fa's eyes swept across the audience, and he met Yang Jian, Nezha, and Li Jing's strange eyes.
He knew what these people were thinking at this time. When he thought about his beloved father being said to be a more lecherous person than King Zhou, it was difficult for him to accept it.
"puff!"
"Your Majesty!" Jiang Shang was shocked.
Others immediately rushed towards Ji Fa.
Ji Fa was so angry that he spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted.
