On the outskirts of Tongjing, Dia Niao toasted Ma Tianyou with another glass of water and wine.

In the morning glow, Ma Tianyou's figure was huge, and he immediately returned a glass of wine, covered it with his sleeves, looked up to the sky and drank it all, and said loudly: "I only hate that I have paid my family and country in this life, and I can't follow the king. These are all good words of gratitude, Dia Niao does not take it seriously, but the strong man who has never returned in front of him, although he has tens of thousands of soldiers, has brought many kills to his soldiers, and would rather return to the country to kill, but he refuses to stay in Dongxia, he can't help but give him a lot of respect, he looked around with a horsewhip, and sighed left and right: "Jingkang is loyal and righteous like God blesses his brothers, so he can't wait to ignore it." ”

Ma Tianyou said goodbye for a long time and said goodbye.

What kind of fate awaits him? Mountains and rivers are floating under the wheels, the season has passed midsummer, the little fire in his heart, the more intense, no matter how much coolness blows at night, it is difficult to suppress the heat in his chest, closer and closer, closer and closer, every day he is recalling the battlefield that is in full swing, singing and crying, and repeatedly chanting Oh, it is to test how to achieve the intention.

People have not entered the country, and the news has already spread.

Let him not enter?

Let him live?

Did he come back via Beizhou or enter Dengzhou? Or go straight to Zhizhou?

His old superior, Tao Kan, is in Changyue. I heard that the Dongxia people wanted him to go from Gao Xian and send him back to China, and the north was the territory of the Dongxia people, and if the Dongxia people wanted him to come back, he could enter from any place. What to do? What are the Dongxia people doing?

What are they doing with such a defeated general?

Do they have any intentions?

Let's just say that Dongxia has bad intentions, Ma Tianyou was defeated and humiliated the country, and he was rejected from the country, right.

Many generals have been overshadowed by their psychology.

However, they still felt that the state army Li Pan would be more uncomfortable, waiting for that one to do something.

When Li Pan of the state army heard the news, as they expected, his expression changed greatly at the first time, and he blurted out that "I can't let him come back", but Monk Daolin sat in front of him and said softly: "Can the general stop it?" "Li Pan can't stop the entry, but what he can bring back is a dead man. He didn't want to let people criticize him again with Ma Tianyou when he was in a hurry, his expression was gloomy, and he made a gesture of killing.

Monk Dowling shook his head at him.

Li Pan asked, "Mr. Dowling, what do you think?" ”

Monk Daolin said: "What Ma Tianyou hates in his heart, call for the general? The situation of that day, the monk also knew a thing or two, the various departments did not advance, and the general also led the people to supervise the battle, if he hated, how could the general be alone? The general's current situation is very bad, but he just pulled out the Wuding River, which is difficult for the state to accept, but the pull out of the Wuding River is to block Gao Xian's soldiers and horses, at least to block Gao Xian's soldiers and horses, why doesn't the general take the horse to break the situation? ”

Li Pan asked rhetorically: "Break the game?" ”

Monk Dowling said, "Yes. Take him to break the game. It's true that the state opposes the generals, aren't the generals also operating underneath, doing some invisible people's deeds, adding fuel to the fire, and now that Ma Tianyou is back, they can all have a clear conscience? Since he was weak-hearted and would even kill him secretly, the general might as well do the opposite, praise Ma Tianyou on the battlefield, and let him reappear as a soldier and let people know the crisis at that time. The higher the general praises him, the more correct the decision of tug-of-war, the more willing the general is to carry forward his fortitude, the better the exculpation, if he also reciprocates the peach, and tells the people of the world that the tyrant has been unable to hold it, and the tug-of-war is his determination to fight to the death. If the tug-of-war traps several counties and counties into Zeguo, this is something that everyone did not expect. ”

Li Pan was surprised: "Such a cloud and rain? ”

Monk Dowling said with certainty: "It's like this. ”

Dowling also said: "Ma Tianyou is Taokan's old subordinate, there are still his colleagues in the state, and everyone is also sad about his fate, but they are afraid that the responsibility for the defeat will involve themselves, if once Ma Tianyou becomes a hero who resists Gao Xianren and returns with honor, and no one in the court will hold them accountable for their ineffective rescue, they will feel pity, but ease the relationship between you and them." ”

Li Pan was silent.

Monk Daolin reminded softly: "Put yourself in the place of death and come back to life, does the general dare?" ”

Li Pan still didn't make up his mind lightly.

However, he soon realized that Changyue also got the news of Ma Tianyou's return, of course it would not be passed on from Beizhou, not so fast, everyone would not be so stupid, but it should be Dongxia to note Jingkang, so soon there was news from the capital, and the emperor was asking him Li Pan: "Did Ma Tianyou surrender voluntarily or was forced to surrender?" Why didn't Ma Tianyou stay in Gaoxian or Dongxia, but took the initiative to return to China? ”

Li Pan suddenly realized that Monk Daolin's Jian yì was answering these two questions for him.

Bishu also needs heroes.

At the right time, at the right time, at the right time.

Sticking to the county to fight against Gao Xiannu should not just be defeated in a battle, heroes need to emerge.

Li Pan seemed to wake up suddenly, and immediately shouted: "Someone." Go and ask Mr. Dowling at once. ”

Dowling was about to return to Baojun from the state, and he was already on the road, and dozens of cavalry chased him and said loudly: "Sir, please go back to the state city, the general has something important to entrust." ”

When they met again, Li Pan couldn't wait to say: "I'm very afraid that Ma Tianyou will return with hatred, and I also ask Mr. to come forward, see him as soon as he enters the country, and explain him." ”

Daolin smiled bitterly and said: "I don't want to, the temple in Baojun has been partially built, and the Buddha statue is being molded, when someone recites the scriptures day and night." ”

He excused himself, but he was just uncomfortable, when I mentioned Jian yì to you, you didn't take it seriously, I had to leave, and you called me back again, and asked me to go to the border to pick up people for you.

Li Pan said with a smile: "There are hundreds of monks, and there are others who read the scriptures. If it weren't for Mr. Lao, others would not have Mr. Vajra, and it would be difficult to achieve things. ”

Daolin's expression suddenly moved, and he said with a smile: "The body of the Buddha is plated with real gold, and the monks are powerless, I am in a hurry to go back, that is to recruit some strong men to guard...... In the future, we will come to see the Buddha Temple. ”

Li Pan hurriedly said, "I'll send troops to watch for you." ”

Dowling excused himself and said: "The general will help me, only for a while, and the monk needs to transform one or two warrior monks and lead all living beings to protect the hospital." Li Pan laughed and said, "I see." I heard that in Baojun, you built a temple to occupy other people's land, and your monks fought with others, but they couldn't fight, and the foreman who repaired the temple refused to help you, so you paid twice as much money for nothing, so how about Ben will give you weapons and help you train monks to take care of your home? ”

Dowling did not shirk and said softly: "The general is wise. Do you know that the monks have the Buddha in their hearts, they are not afraid of death at all, they can practice martial arts diligently day and night, if they can really train an Arhat monk, what is the difference between them and the invulnerable Taoist soldiers of the past dynasties, they will be able to fight with the generals, conquer everything, and be invincible. ”

Monks?

Li Pan nodded.

He knew that the Taoist soldier drank some yellow rune water, shouted that the sword and gun were invulnerable, the armor was not pierced, and the blade was not avoided, which was indeed difficult, but Li Pan still said: "No Taoist soldier can defeat the royal road." Only by training troops on the royal road can the Quartet be subdued. ”

Dowling sang a promise, lowered his voice and said, "Isn't Buddhism the royal way, isn't the general clear?" If I encounter a vicious battle again, I will send a monk into the army and preach the theory of nirvana and reincarnation, which is better than the shaman of Gao Xian and Dongxia? ”

The two have reached an agreement to persuade Ma Tianyou to obey the call. They also gradually took the same position on the monks and soldiers, and Daolin achieved his goal, and agreed without saying a word, but he still insisted on going back to Baojun, and told Sù: "Li Hu, who built a temple for me, went south to supply stones, and I heard that he would return to Baojun in the next few days, and the monk wanted to call him." He has a fate with my Buddha, if he is overtaken and becomes a warrior monk, the monk will be successful. ”

Li Pan refused, and said: "Mr. go first, I will send someone to send him to chase you, don't do anything bad to me for the sake of Buddha." ”
