Chapter 202: Westward Expansion

When Zhang Chong found Bu Ji, Bu Ji was discussing things in his big tent. Suddenly, seeing Zhang Chong coming in, everyone in the tent was stunned, and the air immediately froze.

Zhang Chong was keenly aware of the change in the atmosphere, whether there was any change in his heart, and he had the heart to leave, but in the end, he still wanted to persuade Bu Ji again, after all, after Bu Ji and Wang Du joined forces, there were nearly 20,000 troops in the department, which was equivalent to the military strength of the Taishan army. Although the latter's combat strength is certainly not as good as that of the Taishan army, with the help of this army, the natural army is greatly boosted along the way.

So Zhang Chong once again advised himself:

"Bu Qushuai, Kyoto is empty today, and the main forces of the north and south are out of the customs. The left-behind general He Jin has no prestige, and he has no plans in secret. The eunuchs and princes in the capital poured into each other, and the people were separated. Once we join forces to the west and threaten Xingyang, the world will shake. Moreover, the soldiers of Hebei today rely on the Su of Aocang. You and I personally commanded the public, lightly covered the attack, they were far from being saved, and they were unprepared, and they were like picking up the ears. When the time comes, the Hebei Sect will break through the enemy without food, won't it be able to capture it?"

Bu Ji asked Zhang Chong rhetorically:

"Ao Cang is so important, that is, it is really unprepared as you said, even if it is defeated, it will also summon troops from all over the world to besiege Ao Cang, when the time comes, how can you stop this little soldier."

Zhang Chong suddenly realized that he was afraid of death.

Zhang Chong immediately explained to Bu Ji:

"Today's famine, you and I are based on Aocang, as long as we send millet to relieve the poor, who from far and near will not return? Millions of people, once can be gathered, pillow prestige, to wait for work. No matter how many Han soldiers there are, we will wait for the danger of guarding Xingyang, and according to the trench of the chasm, we will attack it. And once the Hebei Sect goes west out of Hanoi, it will be self-defeating."

But Bu Ji still hesitated, and finally held back a sentence:

"This heroic strategy is beyond my means. Please take the lead in the army, and I will be the apse. Moreover, all of my subordinates are from the eastern county, and the fields are not asked, who is willing to go west from me. Therefore, Zhang Qushuai should not say again, you go west, and I will stay in Dongjun for you as a way out. You have a lot of thoughts, I can't compare, you and I are still okay."

Zhang Chong was stunned for a moment and asked:

"Bu Qushuai, what do you mean by that?"

Bu Ji looked at Zhang Chong with his deep eyes, and said suddenly:

"Zhang Qushuai, don't speak too directly, otherwise it will ruin the friendship between you and me. Are you really trying to go west for my yellow sky?"

Zhang Chong frowned and said to Bu Ji:

"Bu Qushuai, do you have any misunderstanding about me, you might as well say it directly, I believe that no matter what you say, it will not damage the friendship between my Taishan and your fellow Daoists in Dongjun."

Bu Ji saw that Zhang Chong was so uninteresting, so he simply talked about it:

"Before, I asked you to go north with me to the camp of the Archdiocese, but you just didn't go. Yesterday, I learned that the chief priest had ordered you to go north to the regimental camp several times, but you turned a deaf ear. Just because you don't respect the decree of the Patriarch, you have already made a big mistake.

Let me ask you again, what did you do on the way out of Mount Tai except for the Han soldiers? Did you annex all the Taiping Tongdao along the way of Dongping Kingdom? Someone entered my camp at night yesterday, and they talked about your ambitions since you joined the same way and were wolves.

Then I figured it out, it turns out that you don't want to go north to the regimental camp, you have to go west. I think you are just merging with your peers and strengthening your own mind. I originally thought that you can indeed fight, and you have repeatedly broken the Han army in the past year, and you are the first meritorious person in my sect. So in order to get through the difficulties together, I won't point out your thoughts. But you are so ignorant today, I have to ask you Zhang Chong: What are you thinking about joining my teaching? Are you insisting on going west, is it a false public benefit?" ….

Zhang Chong didn't expect that the honest Bu Ji suddenly gave him a big meal, and then looked at the unkind eyes of the surrounding Dongjun Taiping Road, and felt a sigh in his heart, knowing that he had a big trust and actually entered the military camp of Dongjun Taiping Road.

Zhang Chong knew that he must be righteous, otherwise he might really take the opportunity to take advantage of himself. Hot girl, these Taiping Dao are fighting for power and profit, are they so ruthless?

Zhang Chong straightened his mind and replied loudly:

"Bu Qushuai, do you know who I am? I am a disciple of General Rengong, and the heir of General Rengong's ambition to help the world. Since I joined the church, where is the most dangerous, where no one wants to go, I am at the forefront. Mount Tai is dangerous, and I only brought 200 soldiers, and it took years of bloody battles to fight, general

The brilliance of the yellow sky is sprinkled on this Mount Tai. Shouyi was in danger of the Han soldiers, but I still tried my best, that is, I knew that the sect was pointing at me for the first battle. Luckily, this victory has greatly boosted the morale of our teaching army. And now the church wants me to go north, and I am also resisting the infamy of public opinion in the church, just because I can break the predicament, not to go north but to the west. This fist is public, and Huang Tian can learn from it.

And you said that I annexed my fellow Daoists, along the way, the Dongping Kingdom colleagues were hungry and cold, not for my Taishan Army to take them in, how could these sectarians in Dongping have their lives. And now you Dongjun Taiping Dao, don't thank me for my kindness to your Yanzhou colleagues, and you want to pour dirty water on me. Wouldn't this be too indifferent to my Taishan army?"

Bu Ji just looked at Zhang Chong like this, then suddenly smiled and said:

"Zhang Qushuai Gaoyi, I also agree with your strategy of westward expansion. But it's a pity that my sect can't leave their homeland, so I can only wish you all the best in the west."

Zhang Chong knew that Bu Ji could not be convinced, and it was not suitable to stay here for a long time, so he did not want to stay longer, and was about to retreat to the outside of the tent, Zhang Chong suddenly turned around, pointed to a black and strong burly man under Bu Ji, and warned Bu Ji:

"Bu Qushuai, I have always had the ability to meet faces. You put down the black child on your left, look at the abnormality, and don't order the guards. Otherwise, it will be too late to regret it."

After speaking, Zhang Chong said goodbye and calmly walked out of the tent, walked dozens of steps, Zhang Chong immediately rushed to his own army, shouted them and hurried back to the camp. This Dongjun Taiping Road, there is a problem.

As soon as Zhang Chong walked over there, Bu Ji also looked at the black burly man Zhang Chong just pointed at with a complicated expression.

The man panicked and fell to his knees:

"Qu Shuai, you know me. I don't even know what visual anomalies are. The surnamed Zhang didn't have a good heart at all, he just wanted to provoke us, yes, he was sowing discord. Qu Shuai, don't fall for it."

Bu Ji looked at this black man repeatedly, until he saw this person trembling, and then said:

"Zhang Bo, I know you. Get up, no one can provoke us, as long as you still believe in the Yellow Heaven devoutly."

This is called Zhang Bo, and he immediately skillfully recited Huang Tian's prayer to express his belief in Huang Tian.

Wang Du on the side was interested in helping this Zhang Bo, so he diverted the topic and asked Bu Ji:

"Master Bu, just let Zhang Chong go? Didn't the great sage and good teacher come with a secret letter asking us to capture this person and take his army?"

If Zhang Chong was here, he would immediately slap his thigh, it turned out that this Dongjun Taiping Road really wanted to take himself. Indeed, when Zhang Chong entered the big tent just now, these Dongjun generals were discussing how to deal with Zhang Chong. ….

Here's the thing, as soon as Bu Ji came back yesterday, there was a Taiping Taoist from Hebei, holding a horn talisman and dictating the military order:

"Tarzan is arrogant and rebellious, I will allow you to take it when you see the opportunity, and his army will quickly go north with the headquarters and battalion."

Bu Ji was shocked when he got the news, he didn't expect that the sect would want him to attack Zhang Chong, you must know that Zhang Chong is a close disciple of Rengong, and he is the inheritor of Rengong's lineage. Killing this person is going to be a big mess. Especially Zhang Chong's military exploits, if he is executed like this, then there will be chaos within Taiping Dao immediately. Therefore, he repeatedly asked the person who gave the order, is this really the meaning of the great sage and good teacher?

In the end, Bu Ji took the order and kept thinking about it. He felt that the great sage and good teacher must be crazy, and the Han Court was constantly attacking and suppressing over there, and the general would be killed here. So Bu Ji hesitated to take it, but he didn't do much, but delayed by investigating the situation.

But the confessor was not stupid, he saw Bu Ji's half-heartedness, and then turned around and found Wang Du, the number two person in Dongjun Taiping Road, and passed Zhang Jiao's secret order to Wang Du.

The confessor asked Wang Du to hold a meeting of the Dongjun generals, and he and the Dongjun Yellow Turbans would convey the fatwa from Hebei. Therefore, there is this big account.

Before, there were many generals in the Taiping Road of Dongjun who were interested in the heavy goods of Taishan Taiping Road. As soon as they heard that they were asked to capture Zhang Chong and annex the Taishan army, they were enthusiastic.

But there are still a few people with brains, and they don't take the overall situation into account, but ask this question:

"What if they kill Zhang Chong and his army does not surrender, but instead comes to fight our army to avenge his leader?"

No one spoke.

Needless to say, they all see the strength of Zhang Chong's Taishan army, and they have a leather armor in Taipingdao, Dongjun. And the Taishan army has a three-class soldier, so what is the gap?

It was from many considerations that Bu Ji finally made a decision not to go north or west, but to stay in Dongjun. Bu Ji really said that he was right, that is, his subordinates are all from Dongjun, and there are really few who want to leave their hometown. They still want to stay in Dongjun to make a fortune, why go to Chen Liu and the Han soldiers to fight to the death. There is Taishan's army in front, and they are just asking for land in the back, isn't it arbitrary.

So when Wang Du asked if he wanted to capture and kill Zhang Chong, Bu Ji glanced at his good apprentice, and said in a surging voice:

"Naturally, we want to reply to the great sage and good teacher, explain our difficulties to the great sage and good teacher, and let the good teacher issue an official fatwa, and we will do it."

You see, this is the ability of self-explanatory, and his people have learned the ability of those old officials to pass the buck.

He replied here, and waited for the chief sect to order, so wouldn't the time be delayed this time back and forth? By that time, Taishan Taiping Road had already gone west. There is also a fatwa with the title of a book that he specifically wanted, just to avoid taking the blame. Zhang Jiao is now giving a secret order, he killed Zhang Chong here, and the chief sect over there did not admit it at all, saying that the confessor was a Han girl who stole the fake transmission of the Fujie. What can he do when the time comes? He didn't have a heel in the sect, and he didn't have a master above. Isn't that the ideal person to take the blame?

But Bu Ji was reluctant to carry it, he just knew that this matter would not be on the table, and he knew that Zhang Jiao would not directly fight with Rengong at all. So surely there will be no official fatwa sent. Isn't the killing of Zhang Chong over?

It's a pity, these Taiping Dao can't beat the Han soldiers, but the intrigue is really comparable to the Han officials, maybe this is human instinct.
