Di Xin died of self-immolation and Zhou Wuwang won a great victory. He set up a sacrificial room in Shangdu to win victory for his ancestors. The Battle of Makino ended the 600-year Shang Dynasty and established the rule of the Western Zhou Dynasty.

The residual resistance of the Shang army lasted for a day, but it was unable to save the situation. When Di Xin saw the tide ebbing, he returned to Chao Ge and boarded the Lutai. "He wore pearls and emeralds, and he died in a fire." The Shang Dynasty officially perished.

When Zhou Wuwang arrived at Lutai, he stabbed Di Xin's body with "Guanglu" and personally cut off his head and hung a flag. In addition, more than 100 Shang ministers and nobles were captured. They will be taken back to Zhou Jing, where they will be killed as the ancestors of King Wu.

The next day, King Wu, surrounded by several generals, held a grand ceremony of "being ordered" in the Shang Palace to show the success of the revolution. But the conquest of Yindu does not mean the end of the war. The more important task is to eliminate the remnants of the Shang Dynasty in the East.

According to the plan in advance, the allies immediately divided into four roads and headed southeast to conquer the merchants' remnants and loyal countries. As the base area in the rear was lost and the front was surrounded by hostile foreigners, the rest of the commercial army was attacked from both sides. After fierce fighting, most of them were defeated.

Historically, Zhou Jun killed the famous Shang Dynasty (that is, the legendary Huang of later generations), which means that the front line has been extended to the East China Sea.

Allies from Rongdi carried out long-term slaughter and plunder. Iraqi prisoner said: Zhou Wuwang won a great victory in the battle of Makino. As many as180,000 merchants were killed and 330,000 people were taken into slavery.

Such a large number are not all soldiers, but also a large number of civilians. Zhou people also hunted on merchants' land. Tigers, bears, rhinoceroses, deer and other animals were killed in the name of King Wu, and a large number of jewels and property were looted, only in Peijiuda180,000 pieces.

In less than two months, the main battlefield has ended. Mid-April. King Wu established a sacrificial room in Shangdu to defeat his ancestors. The location of the sacrificial room was chosen in Muye, which laid the foundation for the eight hundred years of the Zhou Dynasty.

However, the battle of Makino did not completely destroy the Shang Dynasty. As a continuation of Shang Dynasty, part of the original territory of Shang Dynasty was established as the fief of Wu Geng, the son of Di Xin, and the army of Shang Dynasty was not completely destroyed.

After Zhou Wuwang's death, Wu Geng, together with Guan Shu, Cai Shu and Huo Shu of Zhou, launched the "Three Prisons Rebellion", which was finally pacified by Zhou Gongdan and Zhou Chengwang, and the remnants of Shang Dynasty were completely eliminated. The battle of Makino is a famous example in China's history, in which the few win the many, the weak win the strong, and the preemptive strike. It is also a famous example of China in the early period of ancient car wars.

The Shang Dynasty, which ended 600 years ago, established the rule of the Western Zhou Dynasty and opened the way for the all-round prosperity of the Western Zhou Dynasty's ritual and music civilization. The strategy and fighting art embodied in Makino War are also of great significance to the development of China's ancient military thought. As time went on, the battle of Makino was shrouded in layers of mystery.

According to the records at that time, Di Xin was still a hero with serious defects. However, in later generations, "Zhou Wang" became a dissolute, shameless, cruel and unconscious king, and was splashed with more and more sewage. Accordingly, the battle of Makino, a "bloody" battle of conquest, became a just war against tyranny because of the crime of hanging people.

In the later Confucian legend, Zhou Jun "danced before the Song Dynasty", without killing a person or shedding a drop of blood, the Shang Dynasty collapsed on its own. With the support of the people, King Wu ascended the throne of the son of heaven, and since then, the sword has been put into storage, and the world is at peace. Of course, such a myth is still staged one after another in later generations, but it is not as successful as the Makino War.
