The Central Plains was unified, and the Turkic and alien forces outside the Cypriot felt great pressure.

In the spring of the fourth year of Wuxing, the Turks gathered 300,000 cavalry, gathered a total of 500,000 troops with the steppe alien alliance, and marched south into the Kou border pass.

The tense military situation at the border pass was sent to the eastern capital, which immediately caused an uproar.

Fortunately, there is a general Li Jing at the border pass, Xu Shiji commanded a general to surrender to Wagang, Hebei surrendered to garrison, and the two major military gods of the early Tang Dynasty sat in the town, although the grassland coalition army was huge, it was difficult to enter the jam for half a point.

But Guanzhong and Heluo magnates don't know their abilities, and before the court happens, all kinds of rumors have begun to fly all over the sky.

The mainstream rumor is that Da Wu is going to be unlucky this time, and the strength of the grassland alliance is too strong, and it is difficult to sign the alliance under the city, which is a great blow to the prestige of Emperor Wu Lei Hu.

Some people gloated, some people were worried, and everyone's eyes were focused on the Eastern Capital Palace, wanting to know Emperor Wu's thoughts.

"Hehe, what do you think, father-in-law?"

The palace was calm and serene, and there was no nervousness outside.

Not to mention that the grassland coalition army only has 500,000, even if there are another 500,000, Lei Hu will not pay attention to it.

On this day, Lei Hu invited his father-in-law, Song Que, to the palace to talk and play chess, and suddenly asked.

"Mediocre people just disturb themselves!"

Song Que sneered: "Others don't know how powerful Jiangdong Army is, don't I know yet?" ”

That's an elite army of millions of people who have achieved success in cultivating the outer sect, and with the 500,000 troops of the Grassland United Military Region, it is not enough to stuff their teeth at all.

"I intend to hit the grassland coalition army hard, is my father-in-law interested in fighting with Wuzun Bi Xuan?"

Lei Hu pressed the chess piece in his hand and said indifferently: "His Yanyang Miraculous Skill still has some characteristics, it is best to capture him alive!" ”

Song Que smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it's a little difficult, right?" ”

"I will invite Sanren Ning Daoqi to shoot together, and the masters of Buddhism will also follow!"

Lei Hu didn't care, and said indifferently: "The Central Plains people are outstanding, so we must give full play to the advantages of being outnumbered, don't think that we can organize a coalition army on the grassland!" ”

Song Que was speechless for a while, nodded and said: "I don't care, it's not bad to see Bi Xuan's martial arts, I'm afraid that Ning Daoqi and the masters of Buddhism won't listen to them!" ”

"Hehe, it's not a problem to rather Dodge!"

Lei Hu said confidently: "As for the masters of Buddhism, it's not a problem!" ”

"Alright then, I'll go to Biansai and have a good fight with the Turkic barbarians!"

Song Que put down the chess pieces in his hand and said arrogantly: "It is also called Bi Xuan to know the name of the Heavenly Sword!" ”

"In this way, Yuezhang will take the first step and bring 100,000 Jiangdong elites!"

Lei Hu laughed and said: "500,000 horsemen are amazing, I want to let the Turks know that the infantry can also crisscross the grassland!" ”

"Good!"

Song Que got up and said goodbye: "I won't stay here any longer, go back first and get ready to go!" ”

In the spring of the fourth year of Wuxing, Zhennan Gong was ordered to lead 100,000 troops to aid the border fortress, and the war between the Central Plains and the grassland coalition army was about to break out, and the atmosphere of the entire Guanzhong and Heluo land became solemn.

On the other side, Emperor Wu Lei Hu beckoned the high-level of Buddhism to come to the Eastern Capital as soon as possible for a while, he had something to order.

At this time, the power of Buddhism was respected in the south, because of the existence of Jiankang Buddhism, coupled with the intentional suppression of Emperor Wu Lei Hu, the power of Buddhism in the north was greatly restricted, and the momentum was much worse than before.

The high-level of Buddhism in the south has a very close relationship with Emperor Wu Leihu, and it can be regarded as a solid alliance of interests.

They also wanted to set up a branch of Buddhism in the north to dominate the general trend of Buddhism as a whole.

In such a situation, the status of the former Buddhist holy places Cihang Jingzhai and Jingnian Zen Monastery has dropped very much, and the situation is a little embarrassing.

Emperor Wu Lei Hu sat strongly in the Eastern Capital, giving Cihang Jingzhai on the peak of Emperor Zhongnan Mountain, as well as the Jingnian Monastery outside the Eastern Capital, and the power shrank very much.

There is no need for Lei Hu to personally suppress and follow the army to expand its influence in the north, and the Southern Buddhism Gate will not make these two so-called Buddhist holy places better.

Inadvertently, Lei Hu has provoked disputes within the Buddhist sect.

Lei Hu did not step on the peak of the Emperor of Nanshan, but he also strictly restricted Cihang Jingzhai from being born within ten years, which was a punishment for their frequent interference in the affairs of the Central Plains before.

It was also Cihang Jingzhai who reacted quickly, and when Lei Hu led the Jiangdong Army to sweep the north and was about to unify the Central Plains, he made contributions in the Guanzhong recovery war, and Lei Hu let them go.

A bunch of nuns, still want to stir up trouble in the overall situation of the world?

Relying on the powerful power of Buddhism, Lei Hu simply came to the bottom of the kettle to draw salary, directly promoting the internal struggle of Buddhism, Cihang Jingzhai wants to stir up the wind and rain again, it is not so simple.

I have to say that Cihang Jingzhai is really good at being a person, and when Thunder Tiger unified the world, they presented Shi Qingxuan, the daughter of the evil king Shi Zhixuan, the carefully cultivated Xiao Yi master.

Speaking of which, the evil king Shi Zhixuan is really pitiful, he himself gave Bi Xiu, the heir of Cihang Jingzhai, schizophrenia, and his good future was ruined.

As a result, her daughter was trained as a chess piece by Cihang Jingzhai, and was used to contain Xu Ziling in the original work, which finally caused Xu Ziling to completely fall to Cihang Jingzhai, and made a great contribution to saying that Kou Zhong would retire to the rivers and lakes.

Now, seeing that Emperor Wu Lei Hu unified the Central Plains, and the harem needed a spokesperson for Buddhism, he did not hesitate to offer Shi Qingxuan.

In this way, not only did Emperor Wu have a spokesperson for Buddhism in the harem, but at the same time, he also attracted the attention of the evil king Shi Zhixuan, and secretly did not think less.

Lei Hu knew in his heart, he just smiled.

Women are women after all, and it's okay to play some intrigues and tricks, but if you want to participate in the general changes in the world, you obviously lack vision and ability, which means that every woman is Wu Zetian.

Cihang Jingzhai wanted to play with his heart, Lei Hu casually stood up to Louguandao, one of the mainstream of the Taoist Gate on Zhongnan Mountain, and there was a headache for Cihang Jingzhai's group of nuns.

Emperor Wu called Xiang, the leader of the Southern Buddhism, the old monk of Jiaxiang of the Three Treatises Sect, and the wise old monk of the Tiantai Sect, took a boat all the way north along the canal for the first time, and arrived in the eastern capital to meet Emperor Wu in half a month.

"The Cypriot Grassland Alliance has entered the Koukou, and I plan to destroy them!"

Lei Hu summoned him and said straight to the point: "After the Wu army enters the grassland, I want to spread the belief in Buddhism and Taoism in the Central Plains on the grassland, I wonder if you two have any ideas?" ”

There are ideas, of course there are ideas!

The two old monks, Jiaxiang and Zhizhi, were overjoyed when they heard this, and they almost patted their chests to ensure that they were happy to participate in the religious transmission affairs of the grassland.

This is a good thing to expand the influence of Buddhism and leave a name in the history of Buddhism, just like the previous Southern Buddhism, how can they easily let it go?

As for whether the Wu army can defeat the 500,000 army of the Grassland Alliance, isn't this a joke?

On the way north along the canal, they also heard all kinds of rumors, but they scoffed at them very disdainfully.

As the leaders of the Southern Buddhism, their understanding of Jiangdong's strength is even better than that of Zhennan Gongtian Dao Song Que, and Jiangdong's strength is absolutely jaw-dropping, how can it be that the grassland coalition army can fight against it.

The trend of Jiangdong people practicing martial arts and strengthening their bodies has continued for more than 30 years, and has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and changed the style of the people in the entire area south of the Yangtze River.

But all the lieutenant generals and soldiers of the Jiangdong Army are all beginners in martial arts, what a terrifying force is this?

Don't look at Emperor Wu's previous mobilization of 1.2 million troops in one go, but this has not yet reached the limit for the land of Jiangdong, as long as Emperor Wu is willing to pull another 500,000 troops, it will not be a problem.

And in a few years, as the teenagers who graduated from the Junior Army grow up again, and they are hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers, does the Grassland Alliance have such a strong strength and so many people who can go to the battlefield?

That is, Jiangdong did not let women join the army, otherwise it would be possible to pull out a million female troops, and the combat power would not be worse than the Jiangdong Army that swept the world before.

Hehe, Jiaxiang and Zhizhi, the two old monks, are old and refined. How could he have missed such an opportunity to expand the influence of Buddhism?

As for the rumors outside, they were just rumors, and they didn't affect their decisions at all.

"Heading from the Western Regions, maybe you can still connect with the Buddha Kingdom Tianzhu, what do you two think when the time comes?"

Lei Hu released another big thunder, which shocked the two Buddhist leaders dizzy, and they didn't even know how to get out of the palace, but their hearts were on fire.

If you can preach and preach the Buddha Kingdom Tianzhu, it will be really indescribably comfortable.

At the age of nearly 100 years old, the two old monks couldn't help but be excited and ambitious, and immediately after leaving the palace, they were anxious about the southern Buddhist elite to discuss the matter of going to the grassland with the army to spread Buddhism.

Such a movement naturally attracted the attention of the high-level of Buddhism in the north, and the two old monks were immediately invited to speak by the Jingnian Zen Temple, and the other two holy monks of Buddhism, Emperor Xinzun, and the four ancestors of Zen Buddhism, were all there.

When they knew Emperor Wu Lei Hu's thoughts, their hearts were suddenly hot.

Although he doubted whether Emperor Wu had the strength to level the 500,000 coalition troops in the grassland, looking at the confident appearance of the two old monks Jiaxiang and Zhizhi, they didn't bother to ask, and they wanted to participate in it and get a piece of the pie.

What a great achievement is it to spread the Dharma to the Western Regions and the grasslands?

Maybe in the later generations, they will be awarded the title of Arhat Bodhisattva or even Buddha by the later generations of monks because of such merits, that is the eternal legend, who is not willing to gamble?

Compared with such a major event, the shrinking power and influence of Buddhism in the Central Plains region is nothing at all, so let's get the benefits first.

At the same time, Lei Hu summoned several leaders of the Central Plains Daomen and told them about preaching in the grasslands and the Western Regions.

No matter how many doubts they had in their hearts, since Emperor Wu greeted them, they had to express themselves, otherwise if they wanted to continue to fight with Buddhism in the future, wouldn't they be left behind?

The rumors outside are still surging, but the calm atmosphere in the palace, as well as Emperor Wu's frequent meetings with the high-level of Buddhism and Taoism, are confusing to the forces and people with ill intentions in secret.

What is Emperor Wu doing, isn't the battle with the grassland coalition now the focus of the most attention?
