The elephants crowded in the city gate cave were all frightened by the explosion of gunpowder and convulsed, which provoked the potential explosive power, Diega Ye only felt that the city wall was shaking, and more than a dozen elephants actually passed through the city gate hole, roaring and rushing into the city. Eight?? One? Chinese Network ?. The soldiers behind the city gate were frightened by the dust falling from the city wall, and hesitated to rush over to close the city gate, but they were afraid that the city wall would collapse and their lives would be lost.

Cao Zhang saw the city gate open, shouted violently, followed the elephant's butt and killed into the city, Diega Ye was so frightened that he folded his hands together, and muttered 'Amitabha Buddha' in his mouth, Buddha, you quickly manifest your spirit and save Gogra City.

The Buddha did not manifest himself, and Diega Ye was at the head of the city and saw the menacing Han army. Zhang Wei ran up to the city and saw a Tianzhu man in a strange costume, with his eyes closed, muttering something in his mouth, and a large group of people around him followed, following suit, throwing knives and guns aside, all hands together, put them on their chests, and muttered. Zhang Wei was shocked, his head twisted and looked around, there was nothing abnormal, what the hell are these people doing? Is it also similar to the demon road in the country, please God can't do it?

Diega Ye saw the surprised appearance of the Han army, and his heart was overjoyed, it seemed that his recitation of the Buddha had played a role, and the Buddha was showing his magical powers and blessed himself. Zhang Wei waited for a while, but there was nothing abnormal, and shouted: "Tie me up!" ”

The Han army behind was already impatient, rushed over, put down with one foot, and tied Diega Ye and the others into zongzi with their hands and feet. Diekya Ye is anxious, the Buddha has already appeared, why are you barbarians still being so rude to us? There was a grunt and shouting in his mouth, Zhang Wei and none of the soldiers at the head of the city understood, and one of the soldiers was impatient, and scolded in his mouth: "Grandma, what is calling your mother?" He tore a piece from Dieja's garment, took a beat, and stuffed it in his mouth.

Zhang Wei looked along the city, and saw that the city was full of soldiers, all of them were muttering with low eyebrows, and they couldn't understand what Tianzhu was doing in his heart.

There were only about 10,000 soldiers in Gogra City, and when they saw the Han army entering the city, they all threw their weapons, stood on both sides of the road, and folded their hands, Cao Zhang and Zhang Yi couldn't figure out their heads, whatever, anyway, the army had already entered the city, and the swords and guns were against the backs of these soldiers, and they were circled together.

Cao Cao entered the city and heard about the actions of the Tianzhu soldiers, which was also inexplicable. The two armies are fighting, regardless of life and death, and they will not give up, how can the soldiers of Tianzhu be so bearish? asked Zhuge Ke to look in the city to see if there were any merchants from Yizhou in the city, and asked Duandi.

Zhuge Ke walked around, but there was no Han costume, so he had to come to Cao Cao. Cao Cao was helpless, and muttered: "Tianzhu people believe in the Buddha, and the teachings of the Buddha are so strange. ”

Zhuge Ke said: "During the reign of Emperor Ming, the emperor dreamed of gold at night, and his body had daylight. The next day, when they asked the ministers, one of them replied, 'This is the Buddha.' Emperor Ming sent his ministers Cai Su and Qin Jing to Tianzhu to find Buddhist scriptures. Tianzhu monk Mo Teng, Zhu Falan (this name is repeated with Guishuang's general, it should be Guishan influenced by Buddhism, Zhu Falan's father inadvertently gave him the same name as Tianzhu monk,) returned to Luoyang with two envoys, Emperor Ming was overjoyed, gave land to build the White Horse Temple, and Buddhism spread in the Han Dynasty. Confucianism and Taoism were deeply rooted in the hearts of the people in the country, so there were few results, and there were not many monks. ”

Cao Cao said with a smile: "I was self-disciplined and taught, so I read the Four Books and Five Classics, but the teachings of this Buddhist family have never been involved. Now it seems that this Tianzhu people believe in Buddhism, and in the face of swords, they choose to tie their hands, and Tianzhu is not far from being included in the territory of the Han Dynasty. ”

Zhuge Ke smiled and said: "Cao Gong knows a little, but the Tianzhu people have a cowardly character, why do they expand more than once in the dynasties?" ”

Cao Cao said: "Su Mujia annexed the Mauryan Empire with the power of a small country. At the beginning of the founding of the country, advocating force, fighting in the east and west, and annexing land, is there any difference between it and the previous dynasties in China? Now, after more than 400 years, the people are content with pleasure, do not know the sword soldiers, and worship Buddhism in their hearts, how similar is it to the Han Dynasty? It seems that whenever the people are comfortable for a long time, they breed cowardice. "Sima Law" cloud: Although the country is big, the belligerent will die; Although the world is safe, forgetting the war will be dangerous. "Yi" said: Survival and death are not forgotten, and the country can be protected by the safety of the body. "Mencius" cloud: Born in sorrow and died in peace. Tianzhu since the beginning of Su Mujia, the land is expanding day by day, becoming a behemoth, in addition to Guishan, who dares to covet the neighboring countries? Now that Prumui IV is on the throne, it is reasonable to have domestic turmoil. ”

Zhuge Ke said: "Gogra City has fallen into the hands of our army, I don't know when Cao Gong will be in Hua's City?" ”

Cao Cao smiled: "I want to make a Buddha." ”

Zhuge Ke asked suspiciously: "How to make a Buddha?" ”

Cao Cao laughed and said, "Isn't there a theory of reincarnation in Buddhism? Buddha Shakyamuni attained enlightenment under the Bodhi tree, attained supreme enlightenment, and lived in the Pure Land of Bliss in the West. So who governs the human world? ”

Zhuge Ke said: "According to Buddhism, of course, it was the Buddha who assigned his disciples to be born in the world, to be the lord of a country, and to educate the world. ”

Cao Cao said: "Yes, Yuan Xun, you see, who can be the master of Tianzhu?" ”

Zhuge Ke said: "Of course it's the emperor. ”

"Haha..., Yuan Xun's words are exactly what I want. Our emperor indulges in martial arts and opens up a great cause that has never been seen in the ages. In the remote land of Tianzhu, if there is no Buddhism, the people are in ignorance. The emperor saw that the people of Tianzhu were in dire straits, and was sent by the Buddha to descend to the world, spreading benevolence and great will, pulling out all the people from fire and water, and saving the people from the mud. ”

Zhuge Ke said sincerely: "Cao Gong is far-sighted and admires. ”

Cao Cao said: "In this case, Yuan Xun is willing to accept this important task? ”

Zhuge Ke said excitedly: "My subordinates are willing." ”

Cao Cao said: "Yuan Xun can temporarily take over the guard of Gogra City, and I will send a letter to the emperor to ask the emperor to send a monk from the White Horse Temple to help you." ”

Zhuge Ke said: "Where does Gong Cao want to go? ”

Cao Cao said with a smile: "Wave the army to Hua's City and help Feng Xiao." ”

Cao Cao led an army of about 200,000 people, leaving 10,000 people to Zhuge Ke, believing that with Zhuge Ke's ability, he could stabilize the place and complete the great task of making Buddha.

Fahrenheit City is located in the lower reaches of the Ganges River, was the capital of the Mauryan Dynasty, according to historical records, Fahrenheit City is about 15 kilometers long, about 3 kilometers wide, there are 64 city gates, 570 city gate towers, there are wide trenches dug outside the city, it is the largest city in ancient India. After Sumuga ascended the throne, the capital was located in Fahrenheit, and after several generations, it became more and more prosperous.

The Han army basically did not encounter obstacles all the way, and came to the city of Hua's place smoothly, looking at such a large city, Lao Cao, who was used to seeing big scenes, was also stunned. Thirty miles long city, there is no Han Dynasty, Jingshi is twice as large as Luoyang, north and south are only twenty miles, east and west more than ten miles. How can such a large city be attacked?

The army was stationed, Cao Cao led his subordinates and began to walk around the city, of course, far away, this time came, a day passed, and the generals on the left and right were all speechless.

The circumference of Fahrenheit City is eighty miles, and Lao Cao ran down this circle, close to two hundred miles. What is the population of such a large city? How many troops are stationed? I also have a spectrum in my heart.

When Luoyang was at its most prosperous, it was claimed that there were 300,000 people, so a million people in Hua's city was not much, and with the population outside the city, nearly two million people gathered around Hua's city. As the lord of a country, the safety of Prumoi IV naturally comes first, and the garrison inside and outside Fahrenheit City will not be less than 300,000, right?

Cao Cao frowned and thought as he kept tugging at his beard. The Han army is only 200,000, how can it be attacked? Wai Sanque one, jokes, there are more than 60 city gates, how do you go to encircle? The elephant soldiers in Gogra City have already let the Han army know that they are powerful, and the number of elephant soldiers in this capital must be far greater than that of Gogra City.

Just as Cao Cao was thinking, the roar of an elephant came from outside the camp, and the soldiers hurriedly ran to Cao Cao's big tent and said, "General, the army in Hua's city has come to challenge." ”

Cao Cao asked, "How many people are here?" Oh no, how many elephants? ”

The soldier said, "There are five thousand." ”

Cao Cao's brows were twisted into pimples, it seemed that he still underestimated the strength of the defenders in the city, and the tentative challenge actually dispatched five thousand elephants, could it be that there are tens of thousands of elephants in this city?

The soldiers were still waiting for Cao Cao's decision, and Cao Cao said: "Within five miles around the camp, thistles are sprinkled all over the place, and the army is ordered to strictly guard the camp and not to move rashly." ”

After the soldiers turned around and left, Cao Cao also came out of the big tent and came to the wall to watch, only to see the west of the big village, the black pressure was lined up with elephants, and the soldiers on the back of the elephant were holding high knives and guns, shouting loudly, and the body was doing all the inferior and flowing movements. Although the language barrier is incomprehensible, the downward and downstream movements of the Tianzhu people can still be seen. The Han army did not show weakness on the wall, and returned a series of national scoldings. It's a pity that the Tianzhu people can't understand the subtle, profound, and varied "cultural essence" of the country.

The general with troops in Hua's city was named Brahgani, who saw thousands of cavalry flying out of the Han army's wall, thought that he was about to fight, and ordered his soldiers to prepare.

Bharjani muttered, "What are the Han people doing?" ”

The deputy, Shivadhara, said flatteringly, "Seeing that our elephant soldiers are mighty, did you send a gift?" ”

Bharjani rolled his eyes and said, "Go and see, what kind of gift?" ”

Shivadra patted his elephant, and the elephant obediently knelt down with its legs. Shivadha got out of the elephant, ran to the front quickly, picked up an iron thistle terrestris, ran to the Brahgani in a hurry, held it high and said, "General, it's black gold." ”

Unexpectedly, the spikes of the thistle terrestris were slippery, and Shivadhara's two fingers did not pinch and fell off. Shivadra hurriedly took it with both hands, and the thistle terrestris smashed into his palm at once, the sharp spikes pierced his palm, and blood came out without a fight. Shivadhara, who was in pain, screamed and threw the thistle to the ground.

Brahgani shouted, "You stupid fellow, what kind of black gold is this, this is a trick of the Han people, if the elephant's hooves step on it, our elephant will be finished." Shivadra, I command you, take people, and clean up this black thing for me. ”
