Chapter 5590 Fu Ping's retreat as a thousand army

Black Rou frowned slightly: "After experiencing the evil ghost killing formation, less than 10,000 soldiers on both sides can fight now?"

The ancestor nodded: "Yes, the two sides killed and injured almost 6,000 or 7,000 people. Because of the roar of evil ghosts and possession, the destruction and killing each other caused the Guifang to lose more than 10,000 people, and the Shang army also lost more than 3,000, which was much greater than the losses they killed themselves. Now on the battlefield, the Shang army still has more than 5,000 soldiers to fight, and the Guifang's soldiers in the front army are about the same number, which is evenly matched, but…………”

Before the ancestor finished speaking, Dou Chuang snatched: "But the Guifang still has tens of thousands of baggage troops behind, and they are watching over the chariots they did not take up the battle. At this time, at the time of decisive victory, this force may be decisive. It seems that the Shang army has gained a certain advantage in the battlefield through various means, but the Guifang has strong military strength after all. By this time, the power of the ancestors and ghosts and gods have been used up. With humans against humans and soldiers against soldiers, the Shang army still seems to be at a disadvantage."

The ancestor smiled slightly and said, "It's up to man. The fighting just now almost consumed all the power of the priests and mages on both sides. Most of the wizards were killed by the backlash of evil spirits because of their spiritual power. The only few remaining were dying. Even Wu Ding and the Ghost King were exhausted and could not stand up. This also means that the commanders of both sides almost lost their command or lost their ability to charge. The warriors on both sides almost fought each other with instinct without unified command."

"At this time, Fu Ping came to the Ghost King. He waved his shield and weapons, and almost formed an impenetrable barrier in front of the Ghost King, resisting the arrow rain crossbow arrows that were coming like a storm. Even his body was hit by several arrows, and blood was flowing all over the ground. If it weren't for his resistance, these arrows would have shot on the Ghost King long ago, turning the Ghost King into a target."

Black Rou frowned: "What's going on? Isn't Fu Ping from the Shang Dynasty? This is a great opportunity to kill the Ghost King with his own hands. Why didn't he stab the Ghost King but instead block the arrows for him?"

The ancestor shook his head: "Maybe, it's because he is not sure whether the Ghost King is really powerless to fight again and is waiting to die. Maybe, he is grateful for the Ghost King's trust in him before, leaving his life, allowing him to take charge of the troops, and resisting the opposition. After all, Fu Ping is a person with a clear distinction between gratitude and grudge. It is a act of loyalty and filial piety, and must be done. However, from his personal perspective, the Ghost King who let him go, reuses him, rides horses and hunts with him, and fights side by side with him is the person he really wants to follow. At least, he has fulfilled his obligations to the Shang Dynasty and can now do what he wants as a truly free individual."

Dou Peng sighed softly: "It's not the same to Fu Hao. Maybe Fu Hao has never really loved Wu Ding, but for his tribe and his family and country, he had to let go of his hatred and commit himself to Wu Ding. Even here, listening to the roar of war drums made by his ancestors' human skins, he also had to fight for his previous enemies. This is a typical example of loyalty and righteousness in front of his family and country. However, the Ghost King's chariot was first fatal threatened, and the Shang army's arrows and flying stones hit him. Doesn't this prove that the Shang army has gained an advantage on the battlefield?"

The ancestor nodded: "Yes, the ghost army is indeed not as good as the Shang army in infantry battles. It is precisely because of this that the Ghost King was roaring and ordering that all the chariots and troops in the rear should be put on war horses and come back as soon as possible to attack the Shang army. He shouted at the top of his voice and ordered Fu Ping to withdraw and not allow him to fight independently in front of him and die."

Black Robe frowned: "Is it time for Fu Ping to break the rear and face the Shang army alone? Whether he is true loyalty to the Ghost King or the final temptation, this is really a complete set. Alas, I understand why the Ghost Fang was defeated. Even if he is as cold as the Ghost King, he is finally moved at this time. He cannot control his feelings and turns the draw that could have been withdrawn and reserved into a bet of either victory or defeat. No matter how calm the general is, he is still a human being, and will still be influenced by his own emotions."

Dou Peng nodded: "Yes, just like Liu Yu, when facing Tan Pingzhi's death and Murong Lan's death in front of him, he could not suppress his feelings and made a wrong choice. Only by cultivating immortals like ours, like the ancestors, and leaving the useless human feelings can he make the most appropriate and rational decisions. Looking back at these emotions, you may find it ridiculous."

The ancestor nodded: "Yes, only by cutting off the seven emotions and six desires can we escape the sea of ​​suffering. The Guifang tribe was the last powerful country in the Indian country, but it was divided by human emotions. There were many princes like Xia, Shang and Zhou, and heroes fought. The subsequent divisions were divided for thousands of years. The history of war was also above this. Some people began to think about why all sentient beings were suffering. The disputes on earth. When he figured it out, he realized the truth and became a Buddha, changed from a prince to a Buddha, spread Buddhism, and allowed the Indian countries established by the descendants of Guifang to become Buddhas from then on. Just like our China at almost the same time, Confucianism turned the benevolence and righteousness in the Zhou rituals into our values. Therefore, we need to be wary of Buddhism from the West. They can turn such cruel and barbaric descendants of Guifang into Buddhists who say they do not kill. The influence of our values ​​in Dongtu and Huaxia cannot be underestimated."

Dou Peng smiled bitterly and said, "Liu Yu's trick sounds even more powerful than Buddhism, and it has a huge inspiration for the people. Therefore, we need to deal with Liu Yu and cannot let him succeed. After all, our Middle Earth China has gods and ancestors, and not all humans can decide."
