Chapter 334 Breaking into the formation
Afterwards, Lu Yue found Huang Feihu and told him that the plague array had been set up. Then, he asked him to challenge the Zhou army the next morning.
Huang Feihu's eyes flashed with joy when he heard this. He agreed in a deep voice and fulfilled his mission.
……
The next morning, the sun shone on Sishui Pass.
The sound of war drums slowly rose from afar, low and long at first, and gradually, like ocean waves, it gathered into an unstoppable force, shaking everyone's heart.
The sound of trumpets followed closely behind, high-pitched and passionate, piercing the clouds and splitting the rocks. They intertwined together to form the most moving music on the battlefield, foreshadowing that a great war was about to begin.
The soldiers inside Sishui Pass, led by Huang Feihu, came to the front of the Zhou army with high morale.
At this time, Huang Feihu, wearing golden armor, holding a golden chisel and a reed pestle in his hands, riding a five-colored divine bull, stood in front of the formation, like a god of war.
His eyes were as sharp as an eagle's and he exuded an unparalleled aura.
Following the rhythm of the war drums and horns, he slowly raised the spear in his hand and pointed it at the Zhou army camp. His voice resounded through the sky like thunder:
"Where is Zhou Jun? Do you dare to fight?"
There was also solemnity and tension in the Zhou army camp.
The generals were ready for battle, and the soldiers gripped their weapons tightly, with fear of the unknown and desire for victory in their eyes.
Facing Huang Feihu's provocation, the Zhou army did not retreat, but quickly regrouped and responded with even greater momentum:
"Fight! Fight! Fight!"
Jiang Ziya rode on a Sibu Xiang and slowly walked to the front of the formation.
He stared at the arrogant Huang Feihu in front of him with a sharp gaze, and a hint of sharpness and disdain flashed in his eyes.
Jiang Ziya pondered in his heart, thinking that with his own wisdom and the help of his fellow disciples from the Chan School, it would be easy to capture Sishui Pass.
However, things are unpredictable. After reaching Sishui Pass, they suffered repeated setbacks and were unable to capture the city.
This sudden feeling of failure made Jiang Ziya feel a little cold in his heart, and he began to doubt his own judgment.
Could it be that I really underestimated the enemy?
Thinking of this, Jiang Ziya's murderous intent became stronger. He stared at Huang Feihu coldly and said in a low and powerful voice:
"Huang Feihu, you are just a mortal general, how dare you be so arrogant in front of my army? Who gave you the courage and guts?"
"Do you think that with the help of Jiejiao disciples, you can stop the progress of my Great Zhou's attack on Shang?"
Huang Feihu burst into laughter when he heard this, and the sound was so loud that the air around him seemed to tremble.
He straightened his back, his eyes flashing with determination and indomitable spirit, and met Jiang Ziya's sword-like gaze without fear.
"Jiang Ziya, everyone can brag!"
Huang Feihu's voice was sonorous and powerful, and every word seemed to carry a thousand pounds of force. "If you are really capable, you should first capture my Sishui Pass. Don't just talk nonsense here and make yourself a laughing stock!"
Jiang Ziya's expression changed slightly when he heard this, but he soon regained his composure. He stared at Huang Feihu coldly, and said in a low and powerful voice:
"Huang Feihu, don't be so arrogant. Our Zhou army is approaching, and it is only a matter of time before we capture Sishui Pass."
"As for you, don't kneel down and beg for mercy when the time comes. It will bring shame to your Shang Dynasty."
Huang Feihu laughed loudly, his voice full of disdain and ridicule:
"Jiang Ziya, stop being so pretentious here. I, Huang Feihu, am loyal to the Shang Dynasty. How could I be afraid of a villain like you?"
"If you have the guts, just come over here and see how I beat you to a pulp!"
"I heard that Ji Chang is dead?"
Huang Feihu suddenly changed the subject, his tone full of gloating, "It really serves him right! Traitors and traitors should be executed!"
"He attempted to overthrow the Shang Empire, but he still died in the end. This is really the cycle of cause and effect, retribution continues!"
Jiang Ziya was furious when he heard this. He clenched his fists and said in a low and trembling voice:
"Huang Feihu, stop your nonsense! King Wen is kind and loving to his people, how can you insult him! Sooner or later, my Great Zhou will crush the Great Shang!"
"Destroy the Shang Dynasty?" Huang Feihu sneered, "Jiang Ziya, you are really a man of great skill and courage."
"Don't forget, you are still being blocked by me at Sishui Pass! If you want to overthrow the Shang Dynasty, you must get through this barrier first!"
"However, although Ji Chang is dead," Huang Feihu changed the subject again, his tone full of coldness and cruelty, "But, after I have caught all of you, I will definitely dig him out and whip his corpse a hundred times! To comfort the souls of the heroes of our Great Shang!"
Jiang Ziya was furious when he heard this.
He could no longer tolerate Huang Feihu's arrogant remarks, and waved the flag in his hand fiercely, shouting:
"Huang Feihu, don't be so arrogant! My army is determined to conquer Sishui Pass and tear you into pieces! Come on, form a battle array to meet the enemy!"
Following Jiang Ziya's order, the Zhou army soldiers quickly took action.
They lined up according to the established battle formation, ready for the upcoming battle.
At this moment, a figure appeared beside Jiang Ziya as quietly as the breeze. It was the dignified and majestic Manjusri Bodhisattva.
He was wearing a flowing Taoist robe, holding a whisk in his hand, and his brows revealed an otherworldly temperament.
"Brother Ziya, don't be impatient."
The voice of Manjusri Bodhisattva was like a spring breeze, calming Jiang Ziya's anger a little. "Since they dare to challenge us, it means that Lu Yue has already set up a formation."
"If we attack blindly, we will probably fall into their trap."
When Jiang Ziya heard this, although he was still furious, he also understood that what his senior brother Manjusri said made sense.
He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, and then asked, "So what's your advice, Senior Brother?"
Manjusri Bodhisattva smiled slightly, waved his whisk and said:
"Since I have already made an agreement with him last time, then let me go and break the formation first."
"After the formation is broken, we can attack together. This way, we can also reduce unnecessary casualties."
When Jiang Ziya heard this, although he was furious, he also understood that what his senior brother Manjusri said made sense.
After all, the formation set up by Lu Yue was too lethal for mortals.
"Brother, what you said is absolutely right." Jiang Ziya was moved when he heard this, but then he became worried again: "Brother, this formation looks extremely dangerous. If you go there alone, what if something goes wrong..."
Manjusri Bodhisattva nodded slightly, a smile appeared on his lips, and he interrupted Jiang Ziya:
"Junior Brother Ziya, you are worrying too much. I am a Daluo Jinxian, and this Lu Yue is only at the Taiyi Jinxian level. How could he be afraid of this small formation?"
"You just need to stay here and command the army. When I return from breaking the formation, we will attack Sishui Pass."
After hearing this, Jiang Ziya still had some concerns in his heart, but seeing his senior brother was so confident, he had no choice but to nod and agree. He said with a firm look:
"Brother, you must be careful. I will wait for your triumphant return!"
Manjusri Bodhisattva nodded slightly, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then his figure flashed, turned into a stream of light, and flew towards the place where the two armies were confronting each other.
