Chapter 57

57 The Battle of Muye

The first rays of the morning sun shone on the wilderness, and a gentle breeze blew over, causing the vast grassland to ripple like a wave.

The weather was good today, but a war that was destined to be recorded in history was about to begin here.

The so-called ” pasture ” referred to the wilderness where livestock was herded. This was the largest pasture outside Zhaoge city. Usually, herds of cattle and sheep could be seen everywhere, such as bison, Antelope, and Elks. However, at this moment, the war was coming, and the solemn atmosphere had made all the wild animals in the pasture stay far away from the battlefield.

The low and deep sound of the war drums reverberated in the wilderness, causing the air above the wilderness to become even more tense.

“Thump thump thump thump thump thump thump thump!”

In the midst of the war drums, the supervisor of King Zhou’s slave Army waved his flag and loudly ordered, “”

The military supervisors were riding on their horses, followed by a few soldiers. They urged the slave Army loudly from behind. The soldiers waved their whips, which kept exploding in the air, urging the slave Army in front to move forward. Over 200,000 slave soldiers were dispatched to the battlefield from outside and inside Zhaoge city in a hurry in front of those military supervisors.

Xia ping ‘an was among the slave Army.

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

That was because he had finally proven one thing. In ancient Huaxia, the giant race did exist, and they lived together with the human race.

In ancient Huaxia, Giants were not called Giants. They were called long men.

There were many records of Giants in the history books of Huaxia. Legend had it that when Yu the Great was controlling the flood, he had subdued the giant race and had the Giants help him control the flood.

The First Emperor of Qin also had a giant general under him, known as Weng Zhong.

When Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty, he had also subdued a giant general. That giant general was known as a Leviathan and was the number one battle general under Wang Mang.

The ” New Book of Tang ” was the official history. There were records of Giants in the ” New Book of Tang “. It said that ” the people of the Zhang were 30 feet tall, had jagged teeth and foal claws, and were covered in black hair. They did not eat fire. Giants could not start fires and ate people. They kidnapped women everywhere and threatened the borders of the country. In the secret historical legends, the Han people’s several military operations in the North during the Sui and Tang dynasties were all related to the ” Zhang people.

The last time the giant appeared in the history of Huaxia was during the Ming Dynasty, during the Chenghua period of the Ming Dynasty. The soldiers of the Jiang Su Wei Institute encountered danger on the sea and landed on a small island on a boat. They saw the giant on the island. The giant chased after the soldiers, and the soldiers fled on the boat. In the fight, a Ming soldier cut off a finger of the giant. The finger was one foot and four inches long, and it was finally kept in the Jiading Treasury.

As for the archeology world, it was said that the remains of Giants had been discovered all over the world.

In his previous life, Xia ping ‘an had searched the world for traces of giants. By chance, he had found a leg bone of a giant.

At this moment, Xia ping ‘an saw a giant in the Army of King Zhou of Shang.

A total of 18 Giants!

The giant was seven to eight meters tall and stood under the flag behind the Army of King Zhou of Shang.

In the distance, as long as one turned their head, they would be able to see the eighteen Giants. There was a burning fire in front of the eighteen Giants, and they held red-hot wooden stakes in their hands. They let out waves of roars, looking majestic and very frightening.

In front of those Giants, there were some battle formations. Among them, there were 24 strongmen who could lift huge rocks of 1000 Jin. Although they were not as tall as the Giants who were holding copper rods, there were huge rocks in front of them.

In front of those 24 people, there were another 3000 fierce warriors who could lift an entire bull with bare arms!

In front of the three thousand soldiers, there were another five thousand soldiers carrying javelins on their backs. They walked as if they were flying, and their javelins were 100% accurate!

In front of the 5000 soldiers, there were tens of thousands of King Zhou’s armored soldiers. They formed several large formations and waited.

And in front of those tens of thousands of armored soldiers were Xia ping ‘an and the other slave soldiers!

Looking at the word ” Lu, ” Xia Pingan knew that the first general sent by the martial King’s side was Lu Wang.

It was recorded in the history books that Lu Wang was the first to make a move. It seemed to be true. That Lu Wang was so brave, he might be Lu Bu’s ancestor.

King Zhou’s slave Army became even more agitated as they saw the cavalry charge. Some of the slaves looked fearful, while others turned to look at the military overseers behind them with hatred in their eyes.

charge! Charge! Charge! Charge! Charge! the eyes of the overseers also turned red as they roared. Some slaves wanted to retreat out of fear; however, they were directly slashed to death by the overseers.

If he didn’t move now, when would he?

The slave Army of more than 100000 was only a spark away!

He was that spark!

Xia Pingan didn’t say a word. He turned around, held the long spear in his hand, and rushed to the nearest supervisor on the horse. With a forward charge, the long spear stabbed out, and the supervisor was stabbed off the horse.

All the slaves around were stunned.

The soldiers beside the supervisors were also stunned.

They did not seem to have thought that the slaves would resist!

“Brothers, Shang Li is immoral. He has bullied and killed countless of our brothers and family. Are we still going to work for him at this time and let those nobles ride on our heads in the future? are we going to continue to use us to accompany them in their deaths and our children to lay the foundation for their palaces and skyscrapers? everyone, let’s kill those beasts, bi an!”

Xia ping ‘an roared. Before the soldiers around the supervisor could react, he swung his long spear and cut down a soldier’s neck, cutting down another one.

The slave soldiers were woken up. Seeing someone taking the lead, all the Restless and resentful slave soldiers immediately followed him and rushed towards those military governors behind them as they stabbed those military governors off their horses with their long Spears.

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

More than 100000 slave soldiers were instantly agitated and roared.

The slave soldiers turned around and charged at those supervisors with red eyes.

Tens of thousands of long Spears were turned around and aimed at those people who used to bully slave soldiers and pushed them into the battlefield to protect their wealth and glory.

Did those people think that slave soldiers were worse than dogs?

“Kill King Zhou, kill those beasts that are riding on our heads!”

“Kill those beasts that used our blood and flesh to lay the foundation for their palaces and houses!”

“Kill them, Yingluo!”

The hatred that the slave soldiers had been suppressing all this while burst out. The few soldiers of the military governor standing in front of Xia Pingan had already been turned into meat paste by thousands of Spears and Spears before Xia Pingan could even make a move.

More than 100000 slave soldiers turned around like a tide, pointed their weapons at King Zhou’s Army, and roared as they rushed toward him.

At this moment, the Wu king’s army was filled with the sound of drums and bugle horns. Right behind Lu Wang’s cavalry, the Wu King’s entire Army charged out with a deafening roar towards King Zhou’s Army.

In King Zhou’s Army, tens of thousands of King Zhou’s soldiers behind the 200000 slave soldiers were dumbfounded when they saw the slave Army in front of them change sides and charge at them. Their psychological defense line collapsed at once.

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

As soon as King Zhou’s vassals ran away with their soldiers, the formation of tens of thousands of armored soldiers loosened, and the morale collapsed instantly. In the blink of an eye, it collapsed like an avalanche.
