readx;
Wu Ji and Yelu Hongji's calculations are very reasonable, in the land of Yanyun, Qiyun Society's name is not small, and it is the most powerful among the resistance forces, with them, it is inevitable to seize Youzhou. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Not to mention, Youzhou is an important place, and the Song Dynasty has always sent a lot of detailed works here in order to grasp the movements of the Liao State. In order to attack Zhuozhou this time, Wu Ji and Wang Shao's faction have more detailed work here, and they use the Flying Eagle Book to communicate with each other, as long as Wu Ji's order arrives, these two forces will unite and seize Youzhou.
If you really want to take Youzhou into your hands, Yelu Hongji will kill himself if he flees to Youzhou.
It's a pity that Wu Ji and Yelu Hongji were wrong, it was not the heroes of Qiyun Society who captured Youzhou, and it was not the fine work of the Song Dynasty, but someone else. Moreover, this person is a monk who no one expected, the presiding officer of the Minzhong Temple, and the monk Zhiyan.
Minzhong Temple is now the Fayuan Temple of Yanjing, located in the south of Youzhou City, there are many buildings, it is very majestic.
There is a stele in front of the main hall, and there is a line of words engraved on the stele, and the words are drawn with gold hooks and silver, which is very imposing. There is a monk standing in front of the stele, tall, extremely strong, wearing monk's robes, solemn and solemn, a pair of bright eyes staring at the handwriting on the stele, frowning together.
This person is the presiding officer of the Minzhong Temple, the abbot of Zhiyan.
"I've seen the abbot." A little novice walked quickly, greeted him, and asked very puzzledly, "Dare to ask the abbot, why do you always look at this monument?" ”
"This monument has a kind of momentum, the dragon soars and the tiger is extraordinary." Abbot Zhiyan glanced at Xiao Shami and relieved him of his doubts.
"Momentum? Why didn't I see it? The little novice was puzzled, blinked a pair of eyes, looked at the monument, and looked confused.
"You read this line." Zhiyan pointed to the words on the tablet.
"Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty conquered Liaodong and Goryeo triumphantly, and remembered the filial piety of the loyal ministers who died in the king's affairs, so this temple was built, and the blessing was recommended." The crisp voice of the little novice sounded, and he read out a line of words, but he still didn't quite understand: "Abbot, I still don't understand. ”
"A lot of people don't get it." Zhiyan sighed and said, "This monument was built by Tang Taizong after his expedition to Goryeo, in order to recommend blessings to the soldiers who died in battle. At that time, the Tang army was in the front, all countries were in service, and the Tang Dynasty was ordered, so don't dare to disobey, it was a prosperous age! Now, Youzhou is moaning under the iron hooves of foreign races, and the people are suffering. Looking at this monument again, you can see that the spirit of the dragon and the tiger is extraordinary! ”
"I see! The abbot is missing the past. Xiao Shami tilted his head and said, "However, we are monks, we have jumped out of the Three Realms, and we are not in the Five Elements, Abbot, you are in love!" ”
"Huh!" Zhiyan let out a long series of hearty laughter and said, "Although we are monks and have jumped out of the Three Realms and are not in the Five Elements, we didn't say that we want to forget our ancestors? Thinking of our ancestors, fighting in the south and in the north, all nations bowed down, what a heroic style and heroism it was! And now, the Song-Liao War has begun, and the victory and defeat are about to be decided, should we monks do something for our ancestors? ”
Speaking of this, Zhiyan put his hands together and shouted the Buddha's name: "Eliminating demons and defending the way, it is also my Buddha's compassion!" ”
At this moment, an eagle's cry came, and a flying eagle fell from the sky and landed on Zhiyan's shoulder, making a sharp eagle hoof, and a pair of sharp beaks kept pecking at Zhiyan's bald head.
Zhiyan stroked the eagle's head, untied a copper pipe from his claws, took out the cloth inside, unfolded it and took a look, and couldn't help but be shocked: "Oh my God! It's over so quickly! That's too fast, isn't it? ”
"Abbot, what's the end of the fight?" The little novice asked curiously.
"You, go and call all the senior brothers and junior brothers, and say that I have a decree for them." Zhi Yan didn't answer, but gave an order, stared at the cloth in his hand, and said with a smile: "This is a good opportunity, you must not miss it!" I asked Senior Brother Zhigao to go to Zhuozhou to observe, and it was really wise to send back the news so quickly. ”
After saying that, he walked quickly and entered his monk's room. When he reappeared, he was already dressed in monk's robes, with a sword hanging from his waist and a Zen staff in his hand.
A group of monks got the order of Xiao Shami, hurried over, and saw Zhiyan's outfit, they were very surprised, and secretly thought to themselves, this is not to go out to travel the world, why should they be fully armed.
After seeing the ceremony, Zhiyan waved his hand and asked the monks to stand in front of the stele, pointed to the stele and said: "You all know the origin of this stele, so I won't say more." Tang Taizong went east to Goryeo, returned to Youzhou, issued an order to build the Minzhong Temple, and three hundred years passed in a hurry, and Youzhou underwent earth-shaking changes. The Khitans seized Youzhou, made a prestige, oppressed the people, bullied men and women, ran rampant, and the people were miserable. ”
The Khitan people are powerful and prosperous in Youzhou, which is commonplace, and bullying men and women is endless, which makes people angry. These monks don't care about these things. Hearing Zhiyan's words, he couldn't help but resonate, and shouted the Buddha's name in unison: "Amitabha! My Buddha is compassionate! ”
"Although we are monks, we have jumped out of the Three Realms and are not in the Five Elements, but we can't do without our ancestors!" Zhiyan then lectured and said, "If we even forget the past of our ancestors, then we have forgotten our ancestors and are not worthy of being Buddhist disciples." Now, Wang Shi has defeated the Khitans in Zhuozhou......"
"Amitabha!" This news was so scary that the monks were shocked and shouted in unison: "The monks don't speak, abbot, is this true?" ”
"The monks don't speak, this matter is absolutely true!" Zhiyan replied loudly: "When Yelu Hongji led the army to Zhuozhou, I asked your Uncle Zhigao to go to Zhuozhou to inquire about the news, and he sent back the news that Yelu Hongji was defeated and lost, and only escaped with 3,000 leather room troops, and the rest of the Liao army has been completely annihilated by Wang Shi!" ”
"Oh my God!" This result was so shocking that the monks even forgot the Buddha name and called the sky directly.
"Wu Ji and Wu Du are leading the army to chase and kill Yelu Hongji, and before long, Yelu Hongji will rush to Youzhou." Zhiyan rolled his eyes, shot out of his essence, and said: "I will lead you to seize Youzhou, if Yelu Hongji dares to come, we must capture him alive and sacrifice him to the Great Song Dynasty." ”
This decision was so amazing that the monks were directly petrified.
Monks don't care about secular affairs, so how can they participate in such military affairs, and they can't be stunned.
"Look at this stele and think of our ancestors, and you ask yourself if you should do something?" Zhiyan's voice suddenly turned high, and he asked loudly.
"Yes!"
His questioning was like an initiation, which brought the monks to their senses.
Monks are also human beings, there are also ancestors, there are also patriotic feelings, and there are also Chinese male feelings, in this situation, who can refuse?
So, a group of monks with a precept knife on their waists, holding a Zen staff, under the leadership of Zhiyan, first chanted a Buddha number in front of the stone tablet, and then left the temple, and a prelude to seizing Youzhou began.
Youzhou is very large, covers an extremely wide area, is a prosperous place, if in normal years, the business here is particularly prosperous, traders come and go, lively and abnormal, although it is not comparable to Bianjing, it is also the most prosperous city in Liao.
At that time, people came and went, the sound of selling was loud, and the sound of bargaining continued, how lively it was.
But now, because of the large mobilization of the Liao army, it has suffered a military disaster, a depression, few pedestrians on the street, a deserted place, and there is no prosperous scene at all.
The people hid at home, one was to nest in winter, and the other was to avoid disaster.
Since Yelu Hongji was determined to attack the Song Dynasty, there were countless Liao troops gathered in Youzhou, these Liao troops bullied men and women, ran rampant and domineering, and did not know how many bad things they did, which made the people worry and fear. Although the Liao army had already driven away and went to Zhuozhou, the people were still apprehensive, and no one dared to come out.
"What a good place in the world, but it dissipates in a blink of an eye!" Zhiyan saw it in his eyes, sighed with emotion, and roared loudly: "Amitabha! Ladies and gentlemen, the poor monk is Zhiyan of the Minzhong Temple, and he has just received the news that Wang Shi has defeated the Liao army in Zhuozhou and is chasing the north! Emperor Liao commanded Wu Ji and Wu Du to chase and kill the heavens and the earth! ”
His voice was very loud, like thunder, and it spread far away, and the people nearby could hear it clearly, and they were all shocked, and the news was too shocking.
The people of Youzhou knew about the war between the Liao State and the Song Dynasty, and according to their thoughts, this battle would take a long time. But he didn't think that in such a short period of time, the Liao State was defeated.
And it was a big defeat, even the Liao Emperor Yanjing had no way to go to the sky and no way to enter the ground when he was chasing Wu Ji, which shows how badly the Liao State was defeated!
At that time, the status of the monks was very high, and no one doubted Zhiyan's words. Don't say it's true, even if Zhiyan is telling a lie, with the status of the monks in the minds of the people, he will believe it with all his might.
"The Liao Emperor led three thousand leather room troops to escape, and the rest of the Liao army was annihilated by Wang Shi!"
Just when the people were shocked, Zhiyan threw out another bombshell, which made the people surprised, discussed, surprised, and sobbed!
"Great! Liaogou is finally defeated! Still so badly defeated! ”
"Woohoo! The sky has opened its eyes! Liaogou is finally unlucky! ”
"God, you have finally opened your eyes, after more than a hundred years, Liaogou is finally cornered!"
"It's time for us to turn over! After more than 100 years, we can finally return to the embrace of China! ”
The people rushed out of the house, telling each other about their sufferings and looking forward to a better future. Speaking of suffering, their suffering is to use the water of the three rivers and the four seas to study ink, and they can't explain it in case. More than 100 years of accumulation is too much!
Now, the bitter words have finally come to an end, the Liao State has suffered such a crushing defeat, and it is only a matter of time before the Song Dynasty recovers the land of Yanyun, and they can return to the embrace of Huaxia, blood is connected, and brothers are reunited, who can not be happy?
Under the leadership of Zhiyan, a group of monks spread the good news everywhere, and more and more people joined in. There were more and more people, and soon, there were hundreds, and after a while, there were thousands, and after a while, there were thousands, and finally tens of thousands, tens of thousands.
"Capture Youzhou! Welcome to the king! There are more and more people in Youzhou, and when the time is ripe, Zhiyan roared.
"Capture Youzhou!"
"Welcome to the king!"
The roar resounded through the world, and Youzhou was boiling!
