635, Honganji Temple

Honganji Temple is here!

Speaking of Honganji, it is also full of pitiful. The castle of Honganji Temple is "Ishiyama Honganji Castle", which was originally a huge castle that was easy to defend and very strong, and it was on the basis of Ishiyama Honganji Temple that Osaka Castle was built in later generations. Honganji relied on this giant city and had defeated Oda Nobunaga's attacks many times, and was not in a position to be held by all the daimyo in the surrounding area.

But this poor city is close to the sea! This gave the Iyun army an opportunity, and Iyun's fleet ran to the sea near Ishiyama Honganji Temple day and night, and fired a burst of cannons indiscriminately, causing the Honganji family stationed in the city to be miserable. The city wall by the sea had long been bombarded by Iyun's fleet, and Honganji did not dare to repair it, and then the castle tower was also bombarded, and even the Pure Land Shinshu temple in the city was also bombed through the roof tiles.

If it weren't for the limited number of shells carried by the fleet, I'm afraid that Ishiyama Honganji would have been bombarded to the bottom, but ...... Even if the Yiyun army has been saving the bombardment of shells, the Honganji Temple in the city can't afford to be injured. Who can stand the days when they worry about the world falling shells all day long?

The most unfortunate thing is that the enemy is at sea, and they don't even have the ability to counterattack! Relying on some small sampans, it is impossible to call out to Iyun's navy, and in the end, Honganji had to abandon Ishiyama Honganji Castle, and came to the Nijo Imperial Palace with all the monks and soldiers, and joined the Ashikaga coalition army.

After Wise Mitsuhide shot yesterday, the Ashikaga coalition was frightened by the fifth-order onmyoji, and no one dared to fight, and finally Honganji Xianru, the head of Honganji, finally decided to take action in person, and then there was a scene of a large group of bald heads running out to meet the enemy.

It is said that this onmyoji and the monk have always had a very strange relationship in Fusang.

In Fuso. The history of Yin-Yang Dao is relatively long, it originated in China's Warring States Period, and evolved from the Five Elements Doctrine of Zou Yan of Qi. Around the 6th century AD, the theory of yin and yang and the five elements mixed with Taoist spells was introduced to Fusang, and then infiltrated Fusang's culture. Only then did it form a unique "Yin and Yang Dao". However, the interesting thing is that at the same time that the Yin-Yang Tao was introduced to Fuso, Buddhism also entered Fuso almost at the same time.

Although Buddhism and Yin-Yang Tao are not very exclusive religions like Catholic Christianity, and they can barely get along, but the two religions spread at the same time, and it is inevitable that some conflicts will occur.

Let's take an example. If a certain daimyo wants to pay homage to the gods, he needs to spend money to hire people to do it, and this kind of good deed of earning a lot of votes should be done by a monk or an onmyoji? For example, if a certain daimyo wants to catch a few ghosts and drive away a few evil spirits, should he invite a monk or an onmyoji?

In a word...... Eventually, it became some kind of competition! If you don't understand it very well, think about the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism in China, and you will understand.

At this time, outside the Nijo Imperial Palace, the question of whether the monk is strong or the onmyoji is strong is about to find the answer!

Thousands of monks and soldiers left the city. Neatly arranged outside the Nijo Imperial Palace, the long swords of the snow were raised neatly. The formation of the army of the Honganji family is also slightly different from that of ordinary daimyos.

The head of the ordinary army is called a daimyo, and then each samurai leads their own lineage Ashigaru, forming one battle formation after another, each with a family crest flag representing a different family.

The commander of the Honganji temple is called the "Dharma Master", that is, the master of the Pure Land True Sect of Buddhism, similar to the Chinese White Lotus Sect Master. Under the "Dharma Master", there is a large group of fang officials, the so-called fang officials, which are things like the abbots of various local temples, a bit like a certain helmsman under the command of the White Lotus Sect Master...... These officials led the monks and soldiers transferred from the monasteries throughout Fuso, forming a huge army of monks.

In short, the entire Honganji army is composed of a large group of officials led by the Hojo, and its structure is not much different from that of an ordinary army.

The teams on both sides lined up, and when the monk saw the Taoist, his eyes were red!

With a wave of the monk's robe, the Lord Honganji Temple, an army of about 4,000 bald heads, pressed towards the Wise Mitsuhide Army. These bald heads have a strong sense of oppression, after all, they are bald, neat heads, things in this world, the more neat they are, the more oppressive they are.

Akechi Mitsuhide's expression was solemn, she also hurriedly gave an order, and the little Lori Kerr Yoshicho also led the team forward, there are still a lot of samurai in Wise Light, in addition to Kerr Yoshicho, there are people in the crowd with names and surnames, as well as Saito Rizo, Mizoo Shigerao, Tsugi Hirotada, Tsuda Shigehisa and others, all of whom are a little capable.

The two armies quickly rushed together!

Yi Yun watched the battle from the side, and soon found that the combat effectiveness of the monk army of Honganji Temple was very good, because the bald heads were brainwashed by religion, and they thought that people who dedicated themselves to religion could go to the Pure Land of Bliss after death, and death was not terrible at all, but the beginning of happiness, so the monks and soldiers started fighting, it was really like a wolf and a tiger, and it was extremely fierce.

And the ordinary soldiers more or less believed in a little Buddhism, and the Yali who fought with the monks was also very large, so as soon as they handed over, the legions of Wise Guangxiu began to retreat one after another, and they were beaten by the monks and soldiers.

This made Akechi Mitsuhide feel that the pear was big!

The soldiers could not win the other party, so they could only rely on the generals to play a leading role, and the two fierce generals of the wise army, Keryoshicho and Saito Rizo, rushed to the front line desperately to help the miscellaneous soldiers stabilize their positions. The envoy of Kerji opened his spear, and it was unstoppable.

"Pay attention to Kerkicho!"

"Send someone to deal with Kerkicho!"

There was a shout from among the Honganji army, and the soldiers surrounding Koreyoshi retreated in an uproar, leaving an open space.

Seeing it from afar, Yi Yun guessed that Honganji was planning to send someone to fight Koreyoshi alone!

Sure enough, a big monk came out of the monks' group, this person was wearing dark blue armor, the outside of the armor was covered with monk's robes, looking very strange, there was no helmet on his head, but a white turban was wrapped around his head, and a very large rosary was hung around his neck. The golden light on his body lit up, and the two golden words "Arhat" jumped above his head, which seemed to be a fourth-order profession of the monk and soldier department.

"Fourth-order Arhat, very powerful. Yi Yun asked to the side, "Who is this person?"

Ishikawa Goemon immediately reported: "This person is Shimoma Yoriyo, the official of the Honganji family, and his command ability and combat ability are very strong, and in the Battle of Ishiyama, he once commanded the whole army in place of the lord Honganji Xianru, and repelled Oda Nobunaga's attacks many times. ”

As soon as she said this, Iyun remembered that when I was playing "Nobunaga's Ambition" and "Taiko Rishiden", Iyun had seen the guy Shimoma Yoriyo, and the value was really high, the key was that he was very loyal to Honganji, and he couldn't take it for use if he caught it, so he was a nasty enemy.

At this time, Lai Lian and Kerji Chang have already handed over hands, and Lai Lian used the "King Kong Force" in front of him, which is a skill that makes his strength soar, once he uses it, the power is infinite, and the big long knife in his hand is waved, and Kerji Chang is smashed and flew out.

"Aoyi! sacrifice your tiger teeth!" Lai Lian was unforgiving, and another trick waved at Ke Erjichang, and the little Lori turned over in mid-air and narrowly avoided it.

"Rub, yesterday it was the green ghost and the red ghost who bullied the little Lori, and today there is a bald head to bully the little Lori. I can't bear it!" Yi Yun was very upset: "Why didn't this guy Mingguang Xiu make a move?"

As soon as she thought of this, Wise Mitsuhide really made a move, but what was different from yesterday was that she didn't read the long-lasting and terrifying "Su Yao Xing Descending" again, but read a five-second note: "Boom!"

It seems that when Akechi Mitsuhide faced the army of monks who didn't know the depths, he didn't dare to bombard the enemy with a big move at the beginning, and first used a relatively small spell to test the opponent.

While Akechi Mitsuhide reads the note, Hideman guards her with a katana, intending to help her deal with the enemy's sneak attack.

Something funny happened, and at the moment when Akechi Mitsuhide began to read the note, Honganji, the head of the Pure Land True Sect in the army opposite, also shook up at the same time, the dark golden light on his body was bright, and two big words jumped out on the top of his head: "Dharma Master", this uncreative guy, actually directly used his professional name as the title of the top leader of the sect.

Sure enough, it was a fifth-order monk, Yi Yun was not surprised, this guy was the most powerful monk in Fusang, and there was no objection!

I saw that Honganji Xianru's hands pinched a Dharma seal, and his mouth began to chant words: "Great Day Nyorai is merciful!"

A five-second bar of light also appeared above his head, slowly shortening from right to left.

Honganji showed that the time when the spell was cast was about half a second later than Akechi Mitsuhide. Wise Mitsuhide's light bar was read first, and the tips of his fingers flashed, and a sharp lightning bolt shot out from his fingertips, slashing through the sky, and slashing straight at Shimoma Lai Lian, who was chasing and killing little Lori.

The speed of the electric light was extremely fast, and when Shimoma Lai Lian saw the electric light, he had no time to react, so he had to shout, and his whole body tightened and stiffened.

"Boom" sounded, the name of this spell is worthy of being called "Thunder", it was really a thunder on the ground, and Lai Lian was blackened by lightning in an instant, and his whole body was smoking, but this spell did not kill him, he was only seriously injured, and his body slowly slipped to the ground.

The wise army cheered loudly, but at this moment, the light bar on the top of Honganji Xianru also finished reading, and a white light shot out from his fingertips, reflecting on the body of Shimoma Railian, who was slowly falling, only to see that the place where Shimoma Rairin was injured by the thunder suddenly healed miraculously, and the burnt skin returned to its normal color.

His eyes widened, and he suddenly straightened up again, and laughed: "Haha, with the Dharma Master in charge, I can't die!"

Only then did Yi Yun understand that this was actually a blood-adding magic!Daddy, can a fifth-order monk also add blood?What is the use of a doctor?Nima, the professional functions overlap!(To be continued.)
