None of the slave soldiers around him knew how to ride horses, so Xia Pingan easily stole a horse from one of the officers. Riding on the horse, he followed the rest of the army and charged towards King Zhou's army.
On a battlefield like this, it was easier for people to understand the true meaning of the phrase, 'a defeated army collapses like a landslide'.
What was a landslide?
It was the embodiment of the domino effect on the battlefield.
The collapse of the slave army had directly defeated King Zhou's regular army, which was holding the rear. Once King Zhou's dukes began to run away, the entire army of King Zhou fell apart, and the morale of the army collapsed.
King Zhou's five thousand javelins were also defeated. After the javelins, the strong men who could lift oxen and throw stones also turned and ran.
The eighteen giants who held the burning wooden stakes were stunned for a moment, then turned and ran as well.
In the field, King Zhou's army collapsed before they even came into contact with King Wu's army. People were running everywhere, and King Wu's army was chasing after the slave soldiers.
The Shang Dynasty, which had been passed down for more than five hundred years, collapsed in the face of the slave soldiers' betrayal. In the field outside Zhaoge City.
Seeing the army collapsing, King Zhou's flag and chariot started to retreat into Zhaoge City.
Xia Pingan rode on his horse and chased after King Zhou's flag.
He had already abandoned his dagger-axe. He grabbed a bronze sword and a whip and ran on his horse. With the sword in his left hand and the whip in his right, he chased after King Zhou's flag.
At this point in time, Xia Pingan felt that the historical drama of the betrayal was over.
He chased after King Zhou's flag because he wanted to see what King Zhou and Su Daji, who could bring chaos to the world, looked like. He wanted to satisfy his historical curiosity.
At the same time, he also wanted to see if he could maximize the benefits of the slave soldier beads and create another perfect absorption.
He had heard that although the slave soldier beads were the easiest to fuse, different summoners could summon different slave soldiers with different abilities. Some were strong, and some were weak.
Therefore, he could still give it a try.
Xia Pingan brandished his long whip and long sword. Those who dared to attack him along the way were either lashed in the face by the long whip in his hand or cut down by the bronze sword. They screamed and fell to the ground.
At a time like this, there were only a few people who dared to stop and wave their swords behind them.
Most of the deserters left their backs open to the pursuing army. Very few of them dared to turn around and face the raging tide. Those who couldn't run away directly jumped into the river or knelt down to surrender.
"King Wu has ordered that only King Zhou will be killed. Those who kneel and surrender will be spared …"
King Wu's subordinate, Lv Wang, and the cavalry led by Lv Wang shouted from behind. Their voices spread throughout the Field of Wilderness. Hearing these voices, King Zhou's army quickly lost their will to resist.
The bronze sword in Xia Pingan's hand only managed to slash a few people. After hitting the armor twice, the bronze sword was bent and the blade was broken.
Xia Pingan threw down the bronze sword and only used the whip to whip his horse, closely chasing after King Zhou's banner.
He saw a backpack left behind by the javelin throwers on the ground in front of him. There were several javelins in the backpack. When Xia Pingan galloped past, he pulled out his whip and wrapped it around the backpack. Then, the backpack rolled it up.
There were a few javelins in the backpack.
On the road ahead, a giant of King Zhou of Shang stayed behind. He waved a burning wooden stake in his hand and sniped at the pursuing soldiers behind him.
The giant was too terrifying. The wooden stake in his hand was like a pillar. It was four or five meters long and it was still burning.
The giant swung the wooden pole, which was about four to five meters long, in the air, creating a whistling sound. Sparks flew in all directions. Just one swing of the pole was enough to smash King Wu's cavalry into meat paste or send them flying more than ten meters away.
There were a few people who rushed closer, but they were directly grabbed by the giant and their heads were bitten off by the giant's mouth.
The cavalry's horses were afraid of fire. When they saw the burning wooden stake, they didn't dare to get close.
For a moment, the road was in chaos. Only the angry roar of the giant could be heard. It was one against ten thousand.
Xia Pingan urged his horse to gallop and pulled out a javelin. Thirty meters away, before he could get close to the giant, he used the momentum of his horse to throw the javelin in his hand at the giant.
The giant's target was huge. Xia Pingan's javelin hit the giant's stomach. The javelin sank two feet into the giant's stomach. The giant screamed in pain and the burning wooden stake in his hand fell to the ground. His legs bent and his huge body knelt on the ground.
The giant pulled out the javelin from his body and glared at Xia Pingan. He threw the javelin at Xia Pingan.
However, the giant was not good at using such delicate weapons. The javelin was more than a meter away from Xia Pingan's head. With a gust of wind, it flew more than a hundred meters away.
Seeing the burning wooden stake in the giant's hand finally fall to the ground, King Wu's chariots rushed up. The soldiers on the chariots held four to five meters long javelins and stabbed the giant's body.
In the blink of an eye, the giant fell to the ground, covered in blood.
Before the giant fell, Xia Pingan had already circled around the giant and continued to chase after King Zhou's flag.
On the way from Muye to Chaoge, there were armors, carriages, and flags abandoned by King Zhou's army. The flags of the nobles who were once high and mighty were thrown on the road for people to trample on …
King Zhou led his men and fled in a sorry state from outside the city. Before he could close the city gates, the scattered soldiers behind him swarmed in. The soldiers guarding the city ran away, and no one cared about the city gates anymore.
The entire Chaoge City was in chaos.
King Wu's cavalry had already rushed into the city and were shouting everywhere. "King Wu has ordered that only King Zhou will be killed. Those who kneel and surrender will be spared …"
Xia Pingan rode his horse into Zhaoge City, heading in the direction of the Deer Terrace Pavilion.
Deer Terrace Pavilion was built by King Zhou with the strength of the entire country. He had spent seven years, countless slaves had died, and countless money to build it. It was the most gorgeous super palace in the world.
The entire Deer Terrace Pavilion was more than two thousand meters long and wide. It was backed by Taihang Mountain, and the rare treasures of the world were gathered in Deer Terrace Pavilion. There were rugged rocks everywhere, vines, mushrooms, green bamboo, and towering pine trees.
In the center of Deer Terrace Pavilion, there was a huge platform that occupied more than a hundred acres. On the platform were magnificent houses and buildings that were seven stories tall. It was indescribably luxurious.
Xia Pingan, who had rushed into Deer Terrace Pavilion, was stunned by the gorgeous scene in Deer Terrace Pavilion. At this moment, he finally understood why there was such a record in the 'Records of the Grand Historian': 'Rich taxes to pay for Deer Terrace Pavilion'.
Deer Terrace Pavilion was a place where the wealth of the world was gathered for people to have fun.
Inside Deer Terrace Pavilion, there were palace maids and eunuchs running everywhere. Those exquisite artifacts, beautiful jade, and jewelry were scattered everywhere.
The guards had long disappeared.
Seeing Xia Pingan charge into Deer Terrace Pavilion with his horse, the palace maids and eunuchs screamed and fled in all directions. No one dared to go forward. Everyone only cared about fleeing for their lives and sweeping up the treasures in Deer Terrace Pavilion.
… …
Amidst this chaos, when Xia Pingan urged his horse to charge to the seven-story high platform in the core area of Deer Terrace Pavilion where King Zhou was, the magnificent seven-story high platform was already ablaze with thick smoke rising everywhere.
On the tallest building, a crazy figure was laughing loudly amidst the flames and smoke. The figure was covered in pearls and jade. As he drank fine wine, he constantly sprinkled fine wine, jewels, and silk onto the blazing flames around him.
"Hahaha, all of you will be buried with me, all of you will be buried with me …"
King Zhou's wild laughter came from the tall building.
That was King Zhou?
Through the blazing flames, Xia Pingan still could not see what King Zhou looked like, nor did he see Su Daji.
What a pity!
The fire on the terrace was too big. Xia Pingan grabbed a javelin beside him and threw it with all his might at King Zhou's figure amidst the flames and smoke …
The moment the javelin entered the flames and smoke, before Xia Pingan could see if it had hit, the entire world of the Realm Pearl shattered at the same time, turning into a mist of light …
