About This Novel
In 1046 BC, King Wu of Zhou marched to Muye, seventy miles away from Chaoge, and held a swearing-in meeting. He listed many crimes of King Zhou of Shang and encouraged the army to fight a decisive battle with King Zhou of Shang. At this time, King Zhou of Shang stopped singing, dancing and feasting, and discussed countermeasures with the noble ministers. At this time, the main force of King Zhou's army was still in other areas and could not be transferred back for a while, so he had to arm a large number of slaves and captured southeastern barbarians, and gathered 170,000 people to march towards Muye. However, as soon as these King Zhou's troops met the Zhou army, they turned their spearhead and led the Zhou army to attack King Zhou. As a result, King Zhou was defeated and fled back to Chaoge overnight. Seeing that the situation was over, he had no choice but to board the Lutai and set himself on fire. After King Wu of Zhou completely occupied the Shang capital, he declared the demise of the Shang Dynasty.
