In the long course of history, there is a story about the decline of the Shang Dynasty and the rise of the Zhou Dynasty. In the later period of the Shang Dynasty's reign, the economy withered and the social crisis became more and more obvious. The long civil war with the Dongyi led to the depletion of resources, and the policies of the rulers led to the decline of the dynasty.
At this time, the Zhou people began to emerge. Zhou Gong Xuan's father was recognized by the king of Shang, and the Zhou people rose up and developed rapidly. Zhou Wenwang adopted a series of measures and policies, focusing on production and the introduction of talents. Through his clever actions, he succeeded in paralyzing the Shang King and won his trust.
However, the climax of the story lies in the Battle of Makino. The king of Shang was mediocre and politically crisis-ridden. The king's brutality and ill-advised decision-making put his reign in jeopardy. King Wen of Zhou skillfully took advantage of the opportunity at a critical moment and gradually gained the trust of the king of Shang.
Eventually, King Wu of Zhou led his army to attack.
The mistakes of the Shang army and the light enemy of the Zhou Dynasty led to a crushing defeat, and the Zhou Dynasty established its dominant position in the Central Plains.
