Golden Summoner

Chapter 57 Battle of Makino

The morning light shines on Muye, and a gentle breeze blows across the vast grassland like a blue wave.

Today is a nice day, but a war destined to go down in history will begin here today.

The so-called Muye refers to the wilderness for grazing. This is the largest pasture outside Chaoge City. Usually there are herds of cattle and sheep, bison, antelopes, and elk can be seen everywhere. But now that the war is coming, the chilling atmosphere has made those in Muye The wild animals stayed away from the battlefield.

The low sound of war drums echoed in the Makino, making the air in the Makino even more tense.

Dong dong dong dong...

Amidst the sound of war drums, the governor of the slave army on King Zhou's side waved his flag and loudly ordered, Enter!

The governors were riding horses, followed by several soldiers, urging loudly behind the slave army. The soldiers waved their whips, and the whips kept exploding in the air, urging the slave army in front to move forward. In front of those military governors was an army of more than 200,000 slaves urgently recruited from inside and outside Chaoge City and sent to the battlefield.

Xia Pingan was among the army of slaves.

At this moment, Xia Pingan's heart was not filled with fear, but excitement.

Because, he finally proved one thing. In ancient China, the giant race did exist, and they lived in symbiosis with the human race.

In ancient China, giants were not called giants, but giants.

Regarding giants, there are many records in Chinese history books. Legend has it that when Dayu controlled the floods, he subdued the giant clan and asked the giants to help control the floods.

Qin Shi Huang also had a giant general named Weng Zhong.

Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty, and Wang Mang also subdued the giant general. The giant general was known as the Big Mac, and he was Wang Mang's number one general.

New Book of Tang is the official history. There is a record about giants in New Book of Tang, which says: The people of the Longmen are three feet long, have serrated teeth and claws, and are covered with black hair. They do not eat fire. Giants do not eat fire. They can make fire, cannibalize people, rob women everywhere, and threaten the country's borders. In the hidden historical legends, during the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the several military campaigns of the Han people in the north were all related to the Changren clan.

The last time a giant appeared in the history of China was in the Ming Dynasty. During the Chenghua period of the Ming Dynasty, soldiers from the Jiangsu Guards were in danger at sea and floated to a small island in a boat. A giant was seen on that island, and the giant chased him. Those soldiers, the soldiers escaped by boat. During the fight, a Ming soldier cut off a giant's finger, which was one foot and four inches long, and finally kept it in the Jiading treasury.

As for the archaeological community, legend has it that giant remains have been discovered all over the world.

In his previous life, Xia Ping'an searched for traces of giants all over the world. By chance, he saw a leg bone of a giant.

At this moment, Xia Pingan saw the giant in the army of King Zhou of Shang.

A total of eighteen giants!

The giant was seven or eight meters tall and was under the banner behind the army of King Zhou of Shang.

From a distance, as long as you turn your head, you can see the eighteen giants. There are burning fires in front of the eighteen giants. They hold large red-hot wooden stakes in their hands and roar. It looks majestic and very scary.

Before those giants, there were several military formations. In that military formation, there were twenty-four strong men who could lift huge rocks weighing more than a thousand kilograms. Those twenty-four people were also giants, but they did not have giant giants holding copper rods on their bodies. The people were so tall, and huge rocks were placed in front of them.

Before those twenty-four men, there were three thousand warriors with bare arms who could lift an entire ox!

Before those three thousand people, there were another five thousand soldiers who were carrying spears on their backs, walking as fast as flying, and throwing spears with perfect accuracy!

In front of those five thousand people, there were tens of thousands of soldiers from King Zhou of Shang. The tens of thousands of soldiers were divided into several large formations and were ready.

And before those tens of thousands of soldiers, there are slave soldiers like Xia Ping'an!

The number of slave soldiers is the largest, more than 200,000!

The black slave soldiers were like a tide. Under the urging of the rear governor, each one held the long spear in his hand and moved forward slowly.

There are also some slaves who just hold sharpened wooden sticks as spears. Xia Ping'an was assigned a Changge because he was still strong.

Xia Ping'an held a Changge in his hand. The Changge had a wooden pole more than three meters long and the copper head was very sharp.

An atmosphere of restlessness, restlessness, and tension spread among the slave army.

Not long after, King Wu's army also appeared in front, driving over in darkness.

Judging from the number of people, King Wu's army was not as large as King Zhou of Shang, but there were many flags of the princes in King Wu's army. Looking at it, there were hundreds of colorful and various flags of the princes, among which On both sides of the largest banner with the word Zhou, there are eight princes' flags that are extremely prominent.

Xia Ping'an looked around and saw one word on each of the eight princes' flags, namely Yong, Shu, Qiang, Wei, 髳, Lu, Peng, Bo eight characters, each character refers to a vassal state.

Legend has it that when King Wu of Zhou defeated Zhou, eight hundred princes helped him. Now it seems that there are not eight hundred, but there are still hundreds of large and small ones. According to the standards of this era, the areas under the jurisdiction of some princes may only be a few villages. , bringing dozens or hundreds of people, once the flag is raised, it can be regarded as a country, which can strengthen the momentum of King Wu's army.

But the most important princes are the eight countries. This is the earliest Eight-Nation Alliance in Chinese history.

Although the allied forces of the Qiang, Wei, 髳, Lu, Peng, Bo and other vassal states were dressed a little strangely, they were not too special. Xia Pingan's eyes saw that Facing the Shu army under the banner of Shu.

Looking from a distance, I saw that all the troops under the banner of Shu were wearing strange copper masks on their faces. The copper masks, with bulging eyes, were exactly the same as the strange bronze masks found in Sanxingdui. appearance.

After King Wu's army, there were also giants holding large wooden stakes to help.

The armies of both sides stopped about a mile apart.

The air in Makino was extremely tense at this time.

Facing King Wu's army, the slave army of King Zhou of Shang continued to be restless...

The governor officers were on horseback, running back and forth in the ranks behind the slave army, swinging their whips from time to time and shouting.

Hold on... hold on... All the slave soldiers obey the order. As soon as King Wu's army moves, you will all rush forward...

In those boring movies and TV dramas, on such a battlefield, the commanders and generals of both sides can always say a few words and talk about family matters when they meet. This is actually nonsense. On the battlefield of such a war, a person can No matter how loud your voice is, it can only be heard by the people around you. It can only be heard a hundred meters away.

The distance between the armies of both sides was one mile away, and the restless sounds of the armies and the neighing of chariots and horses had already covered up all the surrounding sounds.

The only things that can communicate on the battlefield of a great war are flags, drums, and horns.

Xia Ping'an, who was in the crowd, tried his best to look at the Zhou banner on King Wu's side. He could only vaguely see a bunch of warriors standing under the banner, holding shields, and some generals riding on horses. Behind the generals, there was a chariot. There was a group of armored guards beside the chariot, and there seemed to be several figures on top of the chariot.

That should be King Wu of Zhou, Jiang Taigong and others.

As for King Zhou of Shang at the back, the same is true. King Zhou's carriage is behind the army and is heavily guarded. Looking from a distance, you can only see a banner fluttering. What King Zhou and Daji look like are completely visible here. Less than.

The stalemate between the two sides did not last long. A trumpet sound suddenly came from King Zhou Wu's army. In the sound of the trumpet, a large flag with the word Lv flew from a large waving banner. A general on a horse, He led a cavalry of thousands of people and rushed towards the army of King Zhou of Shang.

King Wu began to attack.

Looking at the word Lu, Xia Ping'an knew that the first general sent by King Wu was indeed Lu Wang.

Historical records record that Lu Wang was the first to go out, which seems to be true. Since Lu Wang was so brave, he might be Lu Bu's ancestor.

Seeing the cavalry coming from the opposite side, the slave army on King Zhou's side became even more restless. Some slaves showed fear on their faces, and some turned to look at the governors behind them, with hatred flashing in their eyes.

Come on... charge on... charge me up... The governor officer's eyes were red and he was roaring angrily. Several slaves were afraid and wanted to retreat, but the governor officers drew their swords and hacked them to the ground.

If you don't move now, wait until later.

That army of more than 100,000 slaves is just a little short of a spark!

I am that spark!

Without saying a word, Xia Ping'an turned around, holding the Changge in his hand, and rushed towards the nearest military governor on horseback. With just one dash forward, the Changge thrust out and stabbed the military governor off his horse. .

All the slaves around were stunned.

The soldiers around the governor officers were also shocked.

It seemed that they had never thought that the slaves would resist!

Brothers, Shang Zhou was unethical and oppressed and killed countless of our brothers and family members. Do we still have to work for Shang Zhou at this time, so that those nobles can continue to ride on our heads in the future, continue to use us to bury them with them, and use our Children, are you going to lay the foundation for their palace towers? Let's kill those beasts with me...

Xia Ping'an roared angrily. Before the soldiers around the governor could react, Chang Ge swung out and slashed one soldier on the neck and chopped down another.

The slave soldiers were awakened and saw someone taking the lead. The slaves, who had already been restless and full of hatred among the slave soldiers, immediately imitated the same example and rushed towards the governor officers behind them, using their hands to With his long spear and spear, he stabbed the governor officers off their horses in one go.

One spreads to ten, ten spreads to a hundred, a hundred spreads to a thousand...

The army of more than 100,000 slave soldiers instantly became restless and roared angrily.

The slave soldiers turned around, with red eyes, and attacked the officers behind them.

Thousands of long swords and spears turned around and aimed at those who usually dominate the slave soldiers, use the slaves to lay foundations, but push the slave soldiers to the battlefield during the war. Let the slave soldiers work for them to protect their glory and wealth.

Do those people think slave soldiers are worse than dogs?

Kill King Zhou, kill those beasts riding on our heads...

Kill those beasts who use our flesh and blood to lay the foundations of their palaces and mansions...

Kill them...

The usually suppressed hatred of the slave soldiers burst out. The several governor's soldiers in front of Xia Pingan were stabbed to pulp by thousands of spears and spears without waiting for Xia Pingan to take action...

The army of more than 100,000 slave soldiers, like a tide, turned around, pointed their weapons at the army of King Zhou of Shang, shouted, and rushed towards the army of King Zhou of Shang...

At this moment, the drums of King Wu's army thundered and the horns sounded. Just behind Lu Wang's cavalry, King Wu's army attacked in full force, making a thunderous roar and rushing towards King Zhou of Shang's army.

In King Zhou's army of Shang Dynasty, the tens of thousands of soldiers on King Zhou's side behind the more than 200,000 slave soldiers were stunned when they saw that the slave army in front of them actually turned against them and rushed towards them. It collapsed all of a sudden.

Some of the princes on King Zhou's side were the first to turn around and run away.

As soon as the princes on King Zhou's side ran away with their soldiers, the formation of tens of thousands of soldiers was loosened, and their morale collapsed instantly. Before it was touched, it collapsed like an avalanche in the blink of an eye...
