Chapter 627: Only by knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can one survive a hundred battles; As a "court eagle dog" in the Tang Dynasty
For Li Shimin, in fact, he was reluctant to ask for help from these Immortal Buddha Sects.
Of course, if you ask the Royal Brother Sanzang Holy Buddha to make a move, then it's a different matter.
However, killing chickens with a knife, such a trivial matter, Li Shimin believes that there is no need to disturb the Sanzang Holy Buddha.
Although the relationship between them is genuine, the friendship is still maintained on the basis of reality to a certain extent, if it is only a one-sided request, and there is no return. After a long time, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no deterioration.
As the emperor of a dynasty, Li Shimin naturally understood the truth in the meantime, so since Master Sanzang returned from learning the scriptures, he did not have any requests. On the contrary, he was able to give the highest standard of treatment that he could take, and all of his brains were arranged for Master Sanzang.
Maybe for ordinary people, there will be the phenomenon of ascending to Mien and fighting Mi Qiu, but in the case of Master Sanzang, there is obviously no need to worry about this.
Xue Rengui probably also knew Li Shimin's thoughts, and when he saw that Li Shimin rejected his proposal, he didn't say anything more.
Although the relationship between Datang and the True Monarch Temple is relatively close, from Li Shimin's point of view, even if it involves the matter of immortals, Buddhas and demons, he is still unwilling to rely too much on the True Monarch Temple, let alone owe favors because of this.
Therefore, before the matter is not completely unmanageable, Li Shimin naturally still wants to deal with it with Datang's own strength.
However, Li Shimin is by no means a stubborn person, and once he finds that the situation has changed, he is not ambiguous when he should ask for someone.
At this moment, Fei Changfang, who was far away in Liangshan, looked at the topographic map of Liangshan that had just been drawn by Lan Cai and Liang in the military tent, and marked many points on it one by one.
"There's something wrong with this Liangshan." Lan Caihe, who was already wearing beggar clothes, also looked disgraced at this time, "I don't know what kind of formation has been laid in this mountain, once you get close, not only will the Soaring Clouds and Fog Technique be completely ineffective, but even the Five Elements Escape Technique will not be able to be used at all." ”
"Even if you drive the clouds outside Liangshan and hang above Liangshan, when you look down, you can only see the clouds and mist, and you can't see the whole picture of Liangshan at all." Lan Caihe told Fei Changfang about the difficulties of the trip.
Fei Changfang, who had already fought with the demons on Liangshan, naturally knew that this Liangshan was by no means unusual, and the demons who occupied Liangshan were by no means idle people.
Not to mention the mountain protection array that blocked their battalion of Xuanjia troops outside, Fei Changfang had already personally understood the interests of the other party when he fought with the demons head-on before.
After all, they came all the way to Liangshan, not just on the march, passing through the mountains and wilderness, but whenever they encountered some demons and monsters, they were naturally indispensable to their crusade.
Demons who are safe and acquainted, of course, will not have to worry about their lives, and after the registration is made, there will naturally be bad people to receive them.
As for those in the territory of Datang, who still refused to settle down when they saw the Xuanjia Army, according to Fei Changfang's temperament, they would not end well, and he had already personally sent more than ten big and small goblins into reincarnation.
But now when facing this old demon who occupies Liangshan, Fei Changfang also feels that the other party's mana is profound, and the spell is also weird, although he can still deal with it, he really has no way to defeat the other party for a while.
However, although this Liangshan formation is wonderful, and the terrain is dangerous, it has not been able to stop Lan Caihe's footsteps, he was born with a pair of divine feet, the world is so big, there is almost nothing he can't do.
In addition, Lan Cai is proficient in beast language, and can communicate with all beasts. Therefore, as soon as he entered Liangshan, he used the fastest speed to explore the current situation of Liangshan completely, and there were almost no omissions.
Here, Fei Changfang was still looking at Lan Caihe's hand-drawn map, and while Lan Caihe was talking, he had already used the method of earth escape, manipulating the sand and gravel to condense a sand table in front of Fei Changfang.
This sand table is exactly the scene after the Liangshan is scaled.
"Hahaha-" Fei Changfang laughed and patted Lan Caihe's shoulder a few times, "With Caihe's brothers, why worry about Liangshan not breaking." ”
Conventional tactical tactics obviously do not play a substantial role in dealing with the demons in Liangshan, and for Fei Changfang, he can only find another way at the moment.
The so-called knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can survive a hundred battles.
After all, Liangshan is not his home field, and if he is not familiar with the situation in the mountains, he is likely to be self-defeating and lose his troops.
Then what face does it have to return to Chang'an?
At that time, there is no need for His Majesty and Master to cut off their own heads, it is better to receive military law by themselves.
Fei Changfang's temperament is a little irritable, but when should he control his temper, this is the main direction that Xue Rengui has taught him over the years, and now it seems that it is also effective.
Although he is not qualified to be a commander, he can already lead troops as a general.
Yangsan.
"How can you be targeted by the people of the Tang Dynasty." A monk wearing a cyan robe, but covering his face with a hat, spoke in a very unkind tone at the moment.
There was also a short man on the side, who said in a deep voice: "Hmph, it's good to come. He Fei Changfang is a candidate for the Eight Immortals, plus a Lan Caihe, and we are also going to find it. ”
"Master went to save the water god of Da Yeze, but he never returned" The monk in Tsing Yi was a little worried: "It is said that Datang has sent Li Chunfeng to investigate this matter, I don't know if Master will be able to deal with it." ”
"Master's magical powers are vast, and his skills are not under the Erlang Zhenjun and Monkey King back then. is just a Li Chunfeng, presumably there is no master to help. The short monk continued: "Besides, even we have lost the trace of the master, and I am afraid that it is a fool's dream to find the master with a few ordinary people in the Tang Dynasty." ”
"Hahahaha-"
The two brothers looked at each other and smiled, obviously. They are very confident in their master's skills.
Although they spoke easily, their expressions did not relax much because of this, Lan Caihe was just a beggar, so he naturally had nothing to fear when he cleaned up, but after all, this Fei Changfang was Xue Rengui's personal disciple. Even if it is bad, it can only be a bad chance for his Eight Immortals, and it can't easily hurt his life.
Otherwise, if Xue Rengui, the god of war of the Tang Dynasty, took action in person, I am afraid that even their master would be difficult to deal with his edge head-on.
Especially Xue Rengui is now in charge of the Terran Divine Soldier Heaven Shaking Bow and Cloud Piercing Arrow, and there are really not many people in the Three Realms who dare to boast that they can take it.
"But this fee is indeed a bit powerful." The monk in Tsing Yi rubbed his somewhat red and swollen shoulders and said to the short monk: "This punch actually smashed my shoulder bone directly, if it weren't for the elixir left by the master, I'm afraid this arm that has been damaged by the power of human blood and blood will really be terrible." ”
Even if he took the pill, his arm is still a little inconvenient, the reason why the two sides have been safe and sound these days is that on the one hand, Fei Changfang decided to fight steadily, on the other hand, this Tsing Yi Taoist also has to recuperate, and their master has not returned for a long time, they do not dare to act rashly.
The short monk looked down from the top of Liang Mountain, looking at Fei Changfang's camp that was both offensive and defensive, leaving almost no flaws, and was also very helpless: "This Fei Changfang is really difficult, and his steady actions seem to be inconsistent with the rumored temperament. I wonder if he's a grumpy man. ”
Nor is it to blame the short monk for whining.
In fact, it was because after the monk in Tsing Yi was injured and retired from the army, he thought that Fei Changfang would take advantage of the situation to pursue. Therefore, he set up an ambush and wanted to wipe out Fei Changfang and his subordinates.
But. Who would have thought that Fei Changfang, who had always been "irritable", would choose to stand still, so he chose Chen Bing at the foot of Liangshan Mountain, and didn't look forward at all, so that the ambush he carefully set up seemed to be a joke.
In addition, he also sent the little demon to attack Fei Changfang's camp at night, but the little demons were gone, but they were ambushed by Fei Changfang and the whole army was wiped out.
This made him even more embarrassed.
But according to the monk in Tsing Yi, the strength of this Fei Changfang is very strong, and if you want to capture and surrender it, you must gather the strength of the two of them, if it is only one person to meet the enemy, the victory or defeat is unknown, and there is a high probability of losing to Fei Changfang.
In fact, with their cultivation and spells, the same Fei Changfang is actually between the two of them. The reason why the monk in Tsing Yi was injured by Fei Changfang was actually because Fei Changfang dared to work hard and dared to use the means of losing both.
The monk in Tsing Yi was caught off guard and fell into this way.
Otherwise, he would not have been broken by Fei Changfang's shoulder bone, but would have been hammered to his heart.
It's just that if this happens, Fei Changfang's key point will also be attacked by the monks in Tsing Yi. However, the monk in Tsing Yi spared his life and did not want to die with Fei Changfang, so he could only retreat with an injured arm.
"You said that Master, his old man, why did he suddenly disappear?" The monk in Tsing Yi still couldn't figure this out, the master was not in the mountains, and the two of them really didn't have any confidence.
After all, there are many long nights and dreams, and the Tang Xuanjia army is blocked in Liangshan, which will alarm the imperial court sooner or later.
Even if they don't send Xue Rengui over, but Datang now has no shortage of generals with the same strength as Fei Changfang, and just send a few to help, even if they can hold on for some time with the help of the Mountain Protection Array and Liangshan Heavenly Insurance, they still understand the truth that they will lose if they hold on for a long time.
Once Liangshan is lost, these demons who gather in Liangshan may not be able to please them.
If you want to surrender to the court, I'm afraid it's too late.
Bad people don't take them.
The bad people of Datang, although they don't have much reputation in the entire Three Realms, but the demons in Datang are all discolored.
And Yuan Tiangang is by no means a good type, when he deals with those demons who do evil in the Tang Dynasty, he usually does not send serious monks among the bad people to do it, but those demon clans or evil cultivators who accept the recruitment of bad people to do it.
Using demons to deal with demons, although these methods are easy to use, if they are not well controlled, they will easily backfire themselves.
But Yuan Tiangang is obviously a means, those demon clan evil cultivators are governed obediently in his hands, and they are also willing to surrender to the prestige of Emperor Zhenguan, so there is still no obstacle to the dispatch at the moment, and they are all willing to do their best.
At the very least, they think that being a "court eagle dog" in Datang seems to be much more comfortable than being a goblin in the mountains and wilderness.
Other departments don't know, in short, the demon clan that has become a bad person, the court is in charge of their food and housing, and there is still a monthly salary to receive. In short, if they are given another chance to choose, they will still choose to become the sequence of joining the bad people of Datang.
Among them, it is not without eating inside and out, and their fate is needless to say. Traitors, especially those who are caught, tend to have a high degree of overlap in their endings.
Luoyang City.
"When are we going to Chang'an?" Originally, it was to deal with Zhang Guolao, and the bat ancestor who came to the south of Ganbu Continent from Beiju Luzhou, his mood was really excited at this time, because just now there was a news from Beiju Luzhou, saying that the bat cave of the bat clan had been completely cleaned up by Yuan Tiangang, except for a very small number of bats who escaped, the vast majority of the bat people chose to return to the Tang Dynasty.
Such a change, even the Fuxian Bodhisattva who was passing through the northern Juluzhou did not expect it, and he also said to the little white dragon: "I heard that the Sanzang Holy Buddha and Erlang Zhenjun said that after the Nulu Niangniang left the Three Realms, there was no barrier between Nanzhou and Beizhou, which would cause the demons of Beizhou to invade the Tang Dynasty in the south, but now the female Lu Niangniang has not left, the bat cave in the Beiju Luzhou has become the territory of the Tang Dynasty first, and who should be the embankment in the future. I'm afraid it's still two words. ”
Fuxian Bodhisattva's worries are actually not unreasonable, the rapid development of the Tang Dynasty has already caused warnings from all ethnic groups in the Three Realms.
Although there is the Buddha of Lingshan in Xizhou, the original disciples of Western religion, such as Maitreya Buddha and Medicine Buddha, did not dare to relax their vigilance, and let the Tang Dynasty develop without their own indifference.
They are also trying their best to awaken the power of the bloodline of the Xizhou human race, but the effect is limited after all.
Even if some of them have successfully awakened, the increase in power that can be brought is far inferior to that of the Nanzhou Terrans or even these Xizhou Terrans who think they have the power and want to rebel, when the Buddha just taught the Son of Heaven Exercise "Rulai Divine Palm" to the Tianzhu Emperor when he studied the Son of Heaven Emperor Qi before. The rebellion was easily crushed.
The Buddha even said bluntly that the Son of Heaven exercise can only make Emperor Tianzhu reluctant to keep it and want to open up. That's probably not that easy.
After all, now the countries of the Western Continent have their own strengths and tyranny, and each of them competes for hegemony, and no country can have overwhelming power to unify the Western Continent.
Then the contrast is obvious, the divided countries of the Western Continent, their luck is naturally not comparable to the unified Southern Continent Datang.
Like Xizhou, Dongzhou faces the same problem.
Moreover, in the countries of Dongzhou, the real speakers are not the monarchs of the countries, but the immortal sects that are pressing on the top of the mortal realm, and when the immortal sect learns that the power of the human bloodline of the subjects of the Tang Dynasty has awakened one after another, they choose to block the news and check whether there is a similar situation in the mortal realm under their respective immortal sects.
