At night, in the military tent.

King Duoman and Hun Jian, who were cleaning the dust for the book ceremony just now, as well as Huang Chengyu and Wang Jun, who shared the banquet together, have all dispersed, and only Yifeng and other senior brothers and sisters and Xiao Fudie and Xuanluan who fell asleep on Ben Qian's leg when they were drunk and drunk, and Ah Shui, who has been with the book ceremony, have been with him.

Shuli looked at Yifeng who wanted to speak and stopped, and said: "Yifeng, now the rest are your own relatives, just say anything you want." In fact, he had already seen that it was wrong, because Xiugu and Liu Yi did not come to pick them up, and the only explanation was that they had an accident.

Sure enough, Yifeng showed sadness on his face, and told Shuli the scene when Xiu Gu left him, as well as the words that Xiu Gu said ruthlessly, and after speaking, Yi Feng was still immersed in sadness.

Shuli sighed and said, "I met Xiu Gu and Liu Yi on the way to Junzhou before, and I knew that they escaped from the Prince's Mansion without permission, and I knew at that time that this matter was far from over, but I couldn't predict that things would come to this point. However, Yifeng, you don't need to be too sad, Xiu Gu is fine now, but she can't meet us, which is acceptable compared to the worst outcome. ”

He lowered his head and took a sip of wine, and continued: "The time I spent in Junzhou City and the Holy Academy was not boring, I read a lot of books at the same time, and I also made friends from all walks of life, such as Huang Chengyu and Wang Jun met at that time. I know that Buddhism and Taoism will have countless confrontations with the forces of the imperial court, so I must know myself and my opponent. So I inquired from the side and collected a lot of information about the hundred officials of the imperial court, including the generals and colonels of the ten major legions, to understand their acting style, fighting habits, personal style, etc., so that when things involving them appeared, I could make correct judgments at critical moments. ”

The fire monkey smiled: "It's still the fourth junior brother who is powerful, far-sighted, and my brother has always admired you, and you can break through to the Mahayana realm before me, it's all in my expectation, well, yes, it's expected." ”

Xuanluan muttered dimly in Ben Qian's arms at this time: "Nonsense, who is talking nonsense······"

Ben Qian and Xiao Fudie smiled heartily.

Shuli ignored the fire monkey, he glanced at Yifeng and continued: "Prince, of course, is also within my observation. When we contacted him at the Junzhou Discussion Conference before, and when we negotiated with him now, we would definitely find that he had changed a lot. Xiu Gu was not his own sister, after he learned this secret, he chose to lock Xiu Gu in Junzhou City, at that time he had not paid attention, until she eloped with Liu Yi, which suddenly made him feel a strong betrayal, whether it was the three iron laws of the Wei family, or the anger in his heart, he made up his mind to hunt down Xiu Gu. The family affection of the Wei royal family is not worth mentioning. ”

Xiao Fudie nodded and interjected: "I agree with this, the human heart is inherently unpredictable, far less simple than that of beasts. ”

The fire monkey frowned, "Fluttershy, how do I think you're cursing?" ”

Ben Qian looked at the fire monkey and smiled: "Senior brother fire monkey, you are also a beast. ”

"Oh."

The fire monkey turned his head and went to look for wine.

Shuli continued: "The identity of Xiu Gu and the plan you just talked about, the conflict between the two is inevitable, the reason is that Xiu Gu and Liu Yi have made it very clear, although this matter is sad, it is not unacceptable. The trajectory of life is inherently uncontrollable, and perhaps parting ways is the fate of us and Xiugu. ”

Yifeng's face was gloomy and he nodded slowly.

Shuli took the opportunity to say: "Don't talk about this, just now I mentioned that the news of the Northwest Buddhism and Jiangnan Buddhism you got is indeed very urgent, the war has come to this point, no one can turn back, we can only continue." In my opinion, now it is necessary to divide the troops into two routes, one to the northwest and the other to support the two states of Jiangwan in the southeast. ”

Hearing this, Yifeng put aside his low emotions for the time being, and said, "Fourth Senior Brother, how many soldiers and horses did you bring?" ”

"Twenty thousand." Shuli said.

"Is there only 20,000 Buddhist monks in a huge Junzhou?" The fire monkey asked in surprise.

Shuli shook his head and said: "You don't know, this is almost all the Buddhist monks in the south of Junzhou who dare to stand up and resist, when I went to the Douyuan Mountain Holy Academy in the north of Junzhou, I heard that the Buddhist monks in the north of Junzhou either fled to the north of Gunzhou and Anzhou, or returned to the place to return to the world, like the Beizong Temple, directly fled to the temple." The Buddhist temples in Junzhou, most of them are high-ranking officials and nobles, the Buddhist monks in the temple have long been good at political drilling camp and habitual flattery, just like the dust on the Buddhist road, a gust of wind blows, they are immediately frightened to flee in all directions, there is no consciousness and martyrdom spirit as a Buddhist monk at all. ”

Yifeng said: "It's no wonder that they, the ten major legions of Junzhou, most of them left half of their troops to defend Junzhou when they went out to conquer Junzhou, this is the ancestral rule of the Wei clan, and it is also their means of rule. ”

Shuli said: "According to the current situation, I think it is better for me to lead 20,000 soldiers and horses to Jiangwan Erzhou to rescue, you and the second senior brother and others lead the main force of the Wind Roar Army to the northwest to relieve the siege, I will leave Wang Jun to you, he is good at leading troops, and he is very strategic, I believe he can help you." ”

At this time, the fire monkey interjected: "No, I don't think it's appropriate, Wei Jian and Yang Jiong in the northwest obviously have more troops than Jiangwan Erzhou, and they are stronger, you still go to the northwest with Yifeng, and I will lead my troops to Jiangwan." ”

Shuli lowered his head and thought about it, he was not without this idea, but the extermination forces faced by Jiangnan Buddhism are also very large, and no one is currently qualified to support Jiangnan Buddhism alone, he said: "Second senior brother, this is not child's play, the Zuo Longwu Legion led by Jiangnan Buddhism Chongjiao, his dragon cavalry is no less than the roaring Tiger Roaring cavalry, and there is Zheng Wenqi as a military advisor, as well as the state border army of Jiangwan Erzhou to assist, if you want to rescue Jiangnan Buddhism, it will take a lot of hard work." ”

The fire monkey stalked his neck, his face turned red, and said loudly: "How could I joke about this, what, am I not worthy?" You ask Yifeng, what was my performance like in these battles? I'm fighting hard, too, and it's pretty good. If it had been put in the past, it would have been forgotten, now that I have cultivated to the Mahayana realm, you ask Yifeng when I ascended to the realm, I almost didn't burn the Wind Roar Army, would I still be afraid of those Jiangwanzhou Realm Legions who have always been known for their weakness? ”

Shuli said calmly: "Senior brother, fighting a war is not a matter of one person, and you can't start a war just by relying on one person's cultivation strength, Chong Kai of the Zuo Longwu Legion is a very terrifying figure, and there is also Zheng Wenqi, even if the combat effectiveness of the legion in Jiangwan Erzhou is not so strong, with the two of them leading, the troops are still very strong." Senior brother, I see that you are drunk, go and rest early. ”

The fire monkey said unconvinced: "I'm not just going to be brutal, of course I know how to use the art of war and strategy, along the way, Liu Yi has taught, and I have also learned on the battlefield, don't you know what my temperament is, who have I lost to when I play clever tricks?" Do you always mention that Zheng Wenqi, that yellow-mouthed child, is it that important? ”

Shuli shook his head and said: "I only knew when I arrived in Junzhou City that Zheng Wenqi was really terrifying, he had broken through to the realm of virtue before he went to Jiangnan, and he was also a powerhouse in the third realm, but the most terrifying thing was that his background was unfathomable. His previous appearance was all pretended, his true ability couldn't even be detected by anyone I knew in Junzhou, he was a genius disciple of the Holy Academy, and he was also a proud protégé that Cui Ming valued very much.

"In Junzhou City, where the dragon is crouching tiger, he didn't have a big reputation, but he became the military advisor of the Zuolongwu Legion, which surprised all the forces in Junzhou City. At the same time, in the process of collecting information, I also accidentally discovered another person who was not simple, he was the leader of the Taiqing Sect who also participated in the battle with Yifeng in the Dao Conference, Wei Xuan. The two of them can be said to represent the future of Confucianism and Taoism, with the scheming personalities of Cui Ming and Yan Guizhen, if they don't have enough strength, they won't be recognized. Senior brother, you really shouldn't be too proud! The afterlife is terrifying! If you don't believe it, look at Yifeng, is he still the little junior brother we knew more than a year ago? ”

The fire monkey was suffocated, and if he wanted to refute the book ceremony, he was afraid that he would accidentally hurt a wind. If you want to talk about debate, in front of Shuli, the flamboyant fire monkey has never won, Xiao Fudie saw this, and wanted to come over to help him stand up, the fire monkey pushed her away, and said: "I don't have a mouth, I'm very sober, I think the fourth junior brother, you are the leader of others, destroy your own prestige!" This Jiangnan, I'm going to decide! No one can stop it! ”
