Sending away Emperor Zhao Yan, Feng Zhou sat there and fell into deep thought.

Regarding the Northern Expedition, Feng Zhou didn't care about it at first.

But when Zhao Yan proposed to ask him to be the coach, Feng Zhou was tempted.

A few months ago, in the battle of quarrying, Feng Zhou assisted Yu Yunwen to break through the 100,000 Jin army and capture the Jin Emperor Wan Yanliang alive, so as to become famous all over the world and prestige the world.

At the same time, he also obtained a large amount of merit and belief power, and after several months of precipitation, his mana has broken through to the middle level of the Shoudu realm.

If he can lead the army to the Northern Expedition, recover the Central Plains, and even recapture Youyan, then his prestige in the hearts of the people will rise to an unparalleled level.

This kind of great martial arts that enhances the morale of the army and the people, the prestige value and merit obtained are immeasurable, and you may be able to break through the mortal body in one fell swoop and set foot on the road of immortals.

Of course, if you preach while going on a northern expedition, and everywhere you pass is full of believers, then you will be soaring in the daytime, and it is possible.

Historically, the Longxing Northern Expedition launched by Zhao Yan of Song Xiaozong left hidden dangers for later defeats from the initial victory.

At first, the Song soldiers were divided into two routes: one was led by Li Xianzhong to receive Lingbi, and the other was commanded by Shao Hongyuan to capture Hongxian.

In May, Li Xianzhong successfully conquered Lingbi, but Shao Hongyuan could not attack Hongxian for a long time, so Li Xianzhong sent Lingbi to persuade him to surrender, and the Hongxian guards gave up resistance. Shao Hongyuan was ashamed that Hongxian's military exploits were not due to himself, and he held a grudge against Li Xianzhong. Li Xianzhong took advantage of the victory to attack Suzhou, and Shao Hongyuan did not move.

The conquest of Suzhou greatly encouraged Xiaozong, but the contradictions between the two generals on the front tended to intensify. Xiaozong promoted Li Xianzhong to Huainan, Jingdong, and Hebei to recruit envoys, and Shao Hongyuan to be the deputy envoy, but he was ashamed of Li and expressed to Zhang Jun that he refused to accept Li Xianzhong's moderation. And Zhang Jun accommodated Shao Hongyuan's request. Later, Li Xianzhong and Shao Hongyuan had a dispute over the reward of the Suzhou Treasury, and people's hearts fluctuated.

Soon, the Jin general Su Shi Lie Zhining took the lead in attacking Suzhou with more than 10,000 troops, but was defeated by Li Xianzhong. However, the main force of the Jin army of 100,000 arrived immediately, Li Xianzhong fought hard, but Shao Hongyuan did not move. The morale of the army was immediately weakened.

At night, Shao Hongyuan's Chinese army commanded Zhou Hong's rumors that the army was chaotic, and the Song army collapsed without a fight. The Jin army took advantage of the weakness to attack the city, and Li Xianzhong killed more than 2,000 enemies, and finally it was difficult to stop the rout, so he led his troops to retreat. But not far away, the Song army collapsed on all fronts, and the military equipment was completely lost. Fortunately, the Jin army did not know the details and did not rush to pursue, and the Song army gained a foothold on the front line of the Huai River. The name of the old county of Suzhou is detached, so history calls this rout "the rout of Fuli".

The "Collapse of Fuli" dealt a major blow to Xiaozong's ambitions, and he began to vacillate between war and peace. In the end, the Southern Song Dynasty gave up the recovered six prefectures of Hai, Si, Tang, Deng, Shang, and Qin, and the border between the two sides was restored to the original state at the time of the Shaoxing Peace Conference.

The so-called time is not as good as the location, and the location is not as good as the people. Internal strife led to the complete failure of the Longxing Northern Expedition.

However, now if Feng Zhou, a great mana, is the commander of the Northern Expedition, this kind of thing will definitely not happen.

But if there is anyone who dares to disturb the army's heart, Feng Zhou will kill him and his team as soon as possible.

Even if the essence is killed in the end, Fengzhou is guaranteed to gather 100,000 soldiers and sweep the Central Plains.

......

Feng Zhou walked out of the quiet room, his face was as usual, and continued to pass on the Taoist mantra to his disciples.

"We not only have to cultivate the Tao, but we also have to preach, but when we preach, sometimes everything goes well, but more often we always encounter all kinds of problems, so in order to solve the problems that are transmitted, we have to figure out a question, who is the enemy of our Quanzhen Religion? Who is our friend of the Quanzhen Religion? This is the primary problem of our dissemination of the Quanzhen Religion. ”

"You must know that in the past dynasties, in the battle between Buddhism and Taoism, our Taoists have always lost more and won less, and the basic reason is not that Buddhism has great powers, but that we cannot unite real friends to attack real enemies. The True Religion is the guiding light of the people,

The people are in trouble, most of them are Buddhism, Taoism, and even the government's inaction or even tyrannical expropriation, which causes the people to suffer, and we must seek the gospel of the world, and we must pay attention to uniting our true friends to attack our real enemies. In order to distinguish between the real friend and foe, we cannot but make a general analysis of the economic status of the various classes in the Great Song Dynasty and their attitudes towards the Quanzhen Sect. ”

"And to do this analysis, we need to work hard to look around. For this investigation, although it has not yet been carried out, the results have already been obtained for the division. ”

"We have enough experience in Wutai Mountain, and then I will issue funds, you Quanzhen Eight Sons, each with four young assistants, each sub-district, to conduct in-depth investigations, and to have detailed exchanges with local landlords and gentry, literati, business travelers, as well as craftsmen and farmers, the more exchanges, the deeper your understanding of the Quanzhen Sect will be, and it will also have a promoting effect on the growth of your mana. ”

"Generally speaking, if you want to cultivate the true truth and obtain the path of immortality, you have to put down the shelf and investigate and communicate everywhere, and the more you gain, the more helpful it will be for your Taoist practice. ”

Feng Zhou talked eloquently, and the disciples bowed down to listen.

In the past few months, Feng Zhou has taught him his Taoist cultivation, and everyone has gained and achieved something.

But if they want to become a great road and become a generation of grandmasters, they must understand heaven and earth, life, and society.

The so-called seeing oneself and seeing all beings can see heaven and earth.

In fact, cultivating the Tao, cultivating Buddhism, studying and practicing martial arts, and even governing the country, we must remember to work behind closed doors, but should be inclusive, learn from their strengths, abandon their shortcomings, and continue to improve, in order to achieve great achievements.

Before the flower, it will only become a flower in the greenhouse, and it will be vulnerable.

"Botong, you took the four junior brothers to visit Jiangnan East Road. ”

"Ma Yu, you and Fuji, each took four little junior brothers to visit Liangzhejiang East Road and Liangzhejiang West Road. ”

"Qiu Chuji, you took the four junior brothers to visit Jiangnan West Road. ”

"Wang Chuyi and Tan Chuduan, you each took four junior brothers to visit Jinghu South Road and Jinghu North Road. ”

"Liu Chuxuan, Hao Datong, you each took four junior brothers to visit Fujian Road and Chengdu Fu Road respectively. ”

Seeing the disciples bow down to receive the order, Feng Zhou nodded and continued: "This visit and investigation, for a period of one year, is not to teach the Dharma, but to let you go deep into the people, truly understand them, and combine them with the Dao method you have cultivated, and finally be able to walk out of your own path, remember, the road to becoming an immortal and attaining the Tao is based on the prestige in the hearts of the people. ”

"Disciple commands!" everyone bowed in agreement.

After the disciples retreated, Xiaoqing walked over, took a cup of tea, and asked, "Xianggong, you have assigned the disciples to various places, could it be that something big happened in Lin'an?"

"It's true that something big happened in Lin'an, and I sent my disciples to investigate everywhere, but not only to let them escape from the whirlpool, but also to let them truly practice and attain the Tao. ”

"Then what will happen to Lin'an? Even the prime minister is cautious?" Xiao Qing looked puzzled.

She and Feng Zhou have been married for a few months, and they have long since broken away from the girl's career of "three years of love and stupidity", and they are not Wuxia Ameng for the general trend of the world, plus they have five hundred years of knowledge, and they know that in Feng Zhou's words, there is a big storm that is about to happen.

Feng Zhou smiled: "It's nothing more than killing and killing, and the idea is clear." ”
