237 Xuanyuan Sword
Jiang Ziya smiled when he heard this:
"You have been passed on by the Jade Halal, and you have the destiny of great luck, and you will naturally help you succeed as a teacher. ”
After Jiang Ziya finished speaking, he took out a sword from the Qiankun bag and handed it to the Cowherd and said:
"This person's Emperor Holy Sword is Guangchengzi Immortal Master who personally went to the Fire Cloud Cave thirty-three days away to ask to see the Xuanyuan Holy Emperor. The Holy Emperor is merciful and specially gives you this sword to help you determine your humanitarian luck as soon as possible. ”
The Cowherd was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly took the sword and pulled it out to watch, only to see that after the sword was unsheathed, there was a golden light rushing up to the sky and down to the nine shadows.
This Xuanyuan Divine Sword was refined by Taishang Laojun when he picked the copper of Shouyang Mountain to help Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor kill Chiyou. The sun, moon and stars are engraved on one side, and agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry and fishery are engraved on the other side, and there are chapters of humanitarianism. It symbolizes the luck of the human race and the merit of the human emperor.
Cowherd knew that if it weren't for Guangchengzi who was the teacher of Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor back then, and the Three Emperors were under the jurisdiction of the human sect, it would be absolutely impossible for him to get this sword. This is a thing that suppresses the luck of the human race, how can it easily fall into the red dust?
However, since Jiang Ziya borrowed this sword for him, then he has a grand righteousness, and it will be easy to unify humanity. Immediately, the cowherd thanked Jiang Ziya and said:
"Disciple, thank you so much!"
Jiang Ziya nodded with satisfaction and said:
"Go to your father and take counsel about raising up an army. ”
After the Cowherd heard this, he took Jiang Ziya to find Liu Mu in person, and now Liu Mu is over sixty years old, deeply rooted in the two northern provinces of the Great Jin Dynasty, and his power is extremely huge.
He was overjoyed when he saw Jiang Ziya and said:
"Why is the Taoist here?"
Jiang Ziya twisted his beard and smiled:
"Poor Dao is here today to persuade the general to uphold the righteousness and raise troops to save the people from fire and water!"
Since Liu Mu learned Jiang Ziya's identity, he had already vaguely guessed Jiang Ziya's intentions in his heart. At this time, he pretended to be surprised and said:
"How did the Taoist chief say such rebellious words? I would have been a minister of the Great Jin Dynasty, how could I raise an army to rebel?"
Jiang Ziya smiled when he heard this:
"Although the general is a minister of the Great Jin Dynasty, but now the emperor of the Jin Kingdom has no way, the people are not happy, Mencius has clouds, and the people are noble and light. For the sake of all the people in the world, the general should not be obsessed with the righteousness of the monarch and the minister. ”
Liu Mu sighed when he heard this:
"As the saying goes, the king is the minister, and the three generations of my Liu family are the ministers of the Great Jin Dynasty, although the country is difficult now, but the loyal and righteous ministers should do their best to Kuang Jun to assist the country, how can they find excuses to bully the king and rebel? If I do rebellious things, everyone will scold me in the future, and this matter must not be!"
Jiang Ziya heard this and said loudly:
"The general's words are wrong! I think that the king was cruel and unkind, and he favored Daji to frame Zhongliang, causing chaos in the world and suffering the people. I assisted King Wen and King Wu in Xiqi, and set up the Great Zhou Dynasty, and everyone in the world praised him, and King Wen and King Wu were even more respected as the holy kings, so what is the difference between the situation today and that of the past? ”
Liu Mu heard this, and after being silent for a long time, he sighed:
"I am an ordinary man, I dare not compare with King Wen and King Wu, although what the Taoist chief said is reasonable, but I have to ask the officials of the two states before reasoning. ”
Jiang Ziya heard this, and knew that Liu Mu was already tempted, so he stroked his beard and smiled:
"The general can ask the officials around him, and this matter must be the expectation of all the surnames. ”
When Liu Mu heard this, he ordered people to summon civil and military officials at all levels in the two prefectures under his command. After about an hour, the military and political officials of the two states had gathered.
Liu Mu looked at everyone and asked:
"Today, the ancient immortal Jiang Ziya said to me that now the Jin Emperor has no way, and he is close to the villain Yuan Xianchen, which makes the people in chaos in the world uneasy. The immortal chief persuaded me to raise troops to hang the people and fight crimes, and save the people of the world from fire and water. I wonder what you think of this?"
Liu Mu has been the envoy of Yanbei Festival for nearly 30 years, and the two northern provinces of the Jin State are not leaky, and the officials present are all Liu Mu's henchmen. At this time, after listening to Liu Mu's words, he was really happy, and Zhao Tang, the governor of Yanbei, said even louder:
"Returning to the general, now the Emperor Ling has no way, faint and incompetent, making the world chaotic and the people suffering, the general raised troops, it is the will of heaven and the people's will, I am convinced. ”
And Wu Siyuan, the general of the town, said loudly:
"What Lord Zhao said is very true! I will ask the general to raise troops and save the people in the world. ”
After Wu Siyuan finished speaking, he got up and bowed to the ground, and when the other civil and military officials saw it, they also bowed down and shouted:
"Please ask the general to raise troops and save the people in the world. ”
Seeing this, Jiang Ziya smiled at Liu Mu:
"General, this matter is in order, you must not hesitate any longer!"
Seeing this, Liu Mu was very happy in his heart, but he sighed and said:
"Since you all think that I should raise troops, it is the will of God to think that I am here, not that I Liu is rebellious and rebellious, it's just that, please get up, and I will agree!"
When all the civil and military officials heard this, they were all very happy, and when Liu Mu saw this, he ordered Zhao Tang to draft a document to summon the world.
After listening to Liu Mu's order, Zhao Tang said loudly:
"General, as the saying goes, if the name of the cloud is not right, it is not good, and now the general has raised troops to save the people from fire and water, so he can no longer use the name of the envoy of Yanbei Jie of the Jin Kingdom. ”
When Liu Mu heard this, he asked Jiang Ziya:
"What does the Immortal Elder think?"
Jiang Ziya heard this, and after a moment of silence, he said:
Now that the general has raised troops, he should naturally set up his own king, and if he is counted in the Qians today, the general can set himself up as the king of the Qian. ”
When Liu Mu heard this, he was overjoyed and said:
"The immortal chief is a master of the Tao, and he obeys orders below. ”
That Zhao Tang listened, and even if he wrote a text in the name of Liu Mu, Liu Mu established himself as the king, and the country was called Daqian, and officially raised troops against the Jin Dynasty to save the people of the world from fire and water.
After this document was issued, it really shook the world and made people uneasy. Emperor Ling of Jin was shocked when he learned of this, and hurriedly convened civil and military officials to discuss the matter.
After the officials gathered, Emperor Ling asked:
"Now that the traitor Liu Mu has established himself as the king and raised an army against my Great Jin, how do you think Aiqing should put down the rebellion?"
Emperor Ling is the descendant of Emperor Wen of Jin, the tenth prince of the original emperor, he has the royal inheritance, knowing that there are immortals, Buddhas and gods in this world, after succeeding to the throne, he is very worshipping Buddha and good Tao, and he has raised a lot of monks and Taoists.
This emperor is a good Buddha, and he is naturally distracted by governing the country, and now this Great Jin Dynasty is really talented and virtuous, and there are many sycophants and incompetents. Qian Kang, the secretary of the military department, was greedy for money by nature, and after hearing the words of Emperor Ling, he stepped forward and said:
"Your Majesty, that Liu thief rebelled against the sky, it was really a crime that deserved to die, and the minister was the secretary of the military department, and recommended Sun Li, the general of Zhongzhou Town, to lead the troops to quell the rebellion. ”
Sun Li, the general of Zhongzhou Town, was Qian Kang's son-in-law, and Qian Kang recommended Sun Li to send troops, so he naturally had his own intentions. When leading troops to fight, the imperial court naturally had to allocate money, food, and materials. As the officials in charge of the court and the army, this pair of Weng sons-in-law can naturally conspire to be greedy for a lot.
Emperor Ling grew up in the deep palace since he was a child, and he was not as cunning as Qian Kang, and when he heard Qian Kang's words, he hurriedly asked:
"Then what is Sun Li's ability to suppress Liu Thief?"
Qian Kang listened and replied:
"Your Majesty, Sun Li is a third-generation general, he has been familiar with the art of war and martial arts since he was a child, and he has many elite soldiers and strong generals.
When Emperor Ling heard this, and saw that none of his officials objected, he issued a holy decree, named Sun Li as a general to quell the rebellion, led an army of 200,000, and went to Yanbei to quell the rebellion.
That Liu Mu occupied the two provinces of Yanbei and had an army of 100,000 under his command. Emperor Ling dispatched troops and horses from various towns in the Great Jin Dynasty, and the number of troops was twice as large as the enemy's army. Therefore, the court is full of confidence in this counterinsurgency.
The holy decree was transmitted to Zhongzhou, and after receiving the holy decree, Sun Li thanked the Holy Emperor for his grace. Later, he found his staff officers to discuss counterinsurgency matters.
After discussing with the staff officers for a night, he issued a general order and ordered the army to assemble in Luhuacheng, an important town in the north.
After Liu Mu established himself as the king of Qian, he led his soldiers and 100,000 horses, with his son Liu Gan as the vanguard general, and raised troops to invade the Central Plains.
That Liu Gan, as the reincarnation of the Cowherd, has now cultivated to become a heavenly immortal, and Jiang Ziya does have a few talents, so he is invincible everywhere he passes, and he has won five cities in the Great Jin Dynasty all the way, and he has almost encountered little resistance.
When Liu Gan led 10,000 horses to Luhua City, Sun Li finally led the army to arrive. The two sides confronted each other across the city, and Sun Li stood on top of the city, making people scold the rebellious thieves of the Liu family.
Liu Gan was furious when he heard it under the city, and immediately ordered people to send troops to attack the city. However, Luhua City is an important town in the north, with high and thick walls and deep and wide moats. In addition, there were many soldiers and horses in the Jin army, and the grain and grass equipment were very sufficient, and Liu Gan's men and horses attacked for a while, and the casualties were very heavy.
Seeing this, Jiang Ziya persuaded Liu Gan to withdraw his troops, and Liu Gan also saw that it was difficult to capture the city, so he Mingjin withdrew his troops and let the army temporarily retreat for thirty miles and set up camp.
After the army set up camp, Liu Qian looked for Jiang Ziya and said:
"Now that there are many Jin soldiers, it is difficult for cultivators like us to use immortal methods to kill on a large scale. This Luhua City is difficult to capture, how can this be good?"
Jiang Ziya smiled when he heard this:
"This matter is not difficult, the discipline of the Jin army is not strict, it is just a rabble, and when I cast a spell and break Lu Huacheng, the general will lead the troops to rush and kill, and naturally he will be captured!"
Liu Gan was overjoyed when he heard this:
"How did Master break the city?"
Jiang Ziya listened to the twist of his beard and smiled:
"I have cultivated the Yuqing Immortal Method, and I can move mountains and reclaim the sea, how can I not break a mere Luhua City? You can bring in 200 military men and build a Dharma altar outside the city, and when I use Dafa to crack the earth, then Luhua City will naturally be broken. ”
Liu Gan was overjoyed when he heard this, he was also an ancient immortal, so he naturally understood what Jiang Ziya meant. Immediately, he transferred 200 big men, and according to Jiang Ziya's instructions, he built a five-story altar outside the camp.
After the altar was built, Jiang Ziya calculated the time, and then put on the sword to the altar. After waiting for two hours to practice the Fa, Jiang Ziya pointed at Lu Huacheng with his sword and shouted:
"Hurry!"
The surrounding earth qi was urged by Jiang Ziya's spell, and the earth qi was unstable, and the ground naturally shook the mountains, like an earthquake and landslide.
From the center of the city, a huge crack opened in the ground, which was about ten miles long and about one mile wide. At its center is the city gate.
