Wu Xuan hurried to the Governor's Mansion, and as soon as he saw Li Wenzhong and Li Shanchang, he said unceremoniously, "Now is a good opportunity to exterminate the Zhenjiang Yuan army, why don't you attack with Zhang Shicheng's troops, but instead sit idly by?"

Li Wenzhong was angry when he saw Wu Xu, and replied, "Fairy Pan has 80,000 elite soldiers, and there are countless strange people and strange people to help, and the small town of Jiang is not a problem. At present, our forces are limited, and it is difficult to take care of the east of Tianfu, but we want to send troops to defend and prevent the enemy from advancing westward. ”

Wuxu waved his plain monk's robe, "Zhenjiang is only a few hundred miles away from us, it is the little monk who said that he moved Fairy Pan, changed the previous strategy of Zhang Shicheng to retreat to Pingjiang Mansion, and personally led the army to recapture Zhenjiang and defend the enemy in Jiangbei." Now, Na Na Hua suddenly planted an ambush in the inner passage of the city, trying to join forces with the outside and annihilate the siege soldiers of Fairy Pan. How can we sit idly by? If the number of troops is limited, then the 10,000 defenders on the peak near Qixia Mountain can also be pulled over. ”

Li Wenzhong, seeing that Wuxu was in his own meeting hall, scolded himself like this, his voice almost spread all over the Governor's Mansion, his face was very ugly, and he said in a deep voice, "The so-called pulling a hair and moving the whole body, responding to the defense system of Tianfu, echoing each other, is the commander and my generals, and it is decided after consultation, if you do not follow the deployment plan, transfer without authorization, and make mistakes, who can afford it?"

Seeing Li Wenzhong move out of Zhu Yuanzhang and the army's decision-making and command regulations, Wuxu didn't even know how to answer for a while, but just looked at Li Wenzhong fixedly, and the majestic Buddha's breath around him emerged, forcing Li Wenzhong to retreat again and again.

Li Wenzhong held his head high, twisted his neck, and said unyieldingly, "The army has its own rules in the army, and how to march and arrange the formation is also coordinated and deployed by Wenzhong, the metropolitan governor. Although the master is profound in Buddhism and superior to others, if he interferes with himself from it, I am afraid that the orders will be different, and the soldiers will do their own thing, and I am afraid that the enemy will take advantage of it and turn victory into defeat!"

This passage is also categorical and straightforward, although the voice is not as loud as the understanding, but it attracts the sideways eyes of the sergeants outside.

After hearing this, Wuxu restrained his breath and slowly closed his palms, "Amitabha, Li Dudu's words are also very reasonable. The little monk didn't want to interfere with the decisions of the sergeants in the Governor's Mansion. After a pause, the conversation then changed, "But now the situation is critical, and we and Zhang Shicheng can only retreat from the enemy if they cooperate with each other." And the connection in this, because Zhang Shicheng is stingy and short-breathed, and he is bent on self-preservation, and the disaster is leading to the west, and now it is all thanks to the support of Fairy Pan. ”

At this time, Li Shanchang came out to play a round, "Master Wuxu, considering Fairy Pan's perception, it is also very reasonable to ask our army to make a response posture." Then, he turned sideways to Li Wenzhong and said, "I thought that the 5,000 soldiers who had been sent to Qixia Mountain earlier could be used as the vanguard to participate in the battle of Zhenjiang." If Fairy Pan fights well in Zhenjiang, then our 5,000 soldiers will be the icing on the cake, and Fairy Pan will not be unhappy if he wins the battle; if Zhenjiang is in danger, it will not be too late for me to send reinforcements. After all, the 80,000 elite soldiers of Pingjiang Mansion will not be defeated for a while against the 50,000 or 60,000 yuan army in Shanghuali. ”

Wuxu was halfway through speaking, but was interrupted by Li Shanchang, although he didn't like it in his heart, he listened patiently. After Li Shanchang finished speaking, Wuxu couldn't help but take a deep look at him, worthy of being the founding prime minister of the Ming Dynasty in the future. He groaned for a moment and nodded slightly.

Li Wenzhong didn't want to be completely unsympathetic, so he also nodded, and then gave the order.

After that, Wuxu sat there, silent for a long time, and said slowly, "There are naturally rules in the army, and the little monk is not in his position and does not seek his own politics, but Wang Baobao, the commander of the Yuan army, is a real monk, and every time the little monk fights with him, there will naturally be some of the latest movements and secrets of the Yuan army; Therefore, the little monk had to come forward for many things, but he didn't want to interfere with the military strategy of the Governor's Mansion. From today onwards, if there is any news, the little monk will ask Lan Yu to inform the Governor's Mansion that it is up to the two adults to decide how to act. ”

With that, he stood up, bowed to the two of them, and floated away.

Li Shanchang only felt that there was a flower in front of him, and when he reacted, Wuxu was long gone. Li Shanchang paced back and forth with his hands behind his back and his face heavy, and after a long time, Fang said to Li Wenzhong, "Wenzhong, this time I am too anxious. Master Wuxu, I was squeezed by you just now, but I am afraid that I have a lot of mustard in my heart, and I will gradually become conscious. ”

Li Wenzhong sat there and said with a wry smile, "But it's Wen Zhong's, as soon as Master Wuxu's words came out, Wen Zhong knew that it was inappropriate, but I couldn't wait for ordinary people to catch up." After thinking about it, he said with a little hesitation, "Otherwise, Wen Zhong will go to Qiqixia Temple to apologize to him?"

Li Shanchang squinted his eyes, "The monk thinks of himself as high, and he follows the law, since Master Wuxu said so, I am afraid that it will be difficult to maneuver for a while." What's more, Wen Zhong just replied to him, and it spread throughout the entire Governor's Mansion. ”

Li Wenzhong slapped his thigh with annoyance, "It's a small matter to offend Master Wuxu, if you miss the big thing and affect the battle situation, Wenzhong can't escape the blame." After a pause, he muttered to himself, "No matter what, Wenzhong still has to go to Qixia Temple, and the etiquette must be done." ”

Li Shanchang said, "If you go, you will naturally go." But before I wait, it's best to report this matter to the marshal and see what the marshal says. ”

But he said that Wuxu flew back to Qixia Temple, came to the grotto where he rested the day before yesterday and sat down, and thought about his experience of flying down Lushan with Zhao Tong, and suddenly woke up, but he was busy with mundane affairs all day, but he left his own practice aside. Thinking that at the beginning, when he was chased and killed by Lu Miaoying, he made up his mind to go to the East China Sea to find an opportunity and strive to be promoted to the realm of real people as soon as possible. But until now, it is still hovering at the threshold of the ninth layer of mortal dust.

Thinking about it, I couldn't help but smile bitterly and sighed to myself, "I have read the Buddhist scriptures so many times, and as soon as I enter the red dust, this climbing heart will not stop." The avenue is not to be found, but it is all in the world. In the end, a cup of loess was wasted, and the opportunity he had gained in his past and present lives was wasted. ”

As soon as he thought of this, he summoned Lan Yu and the others that he wanted to retreat and practice in the grotto under the Thousand Buddha Cliffs of Qixia Temple. However, taking into account the situation, although he planned to be grounded in the grotto and practice the Dharma, he still maintained a channel of contact with the outside world.

After a while, Lan Yu, Shi Hai, Li Linfu, Pan Ruoxue and others sent back messages one after another, although they were all right, but they were all talking, asking why Wuxu made such a decision at this moment. Wuxu didn't explain, as if he had really closed the dead.

On the side of the Governor's Mansion, Han Songquan and Zhu Leizi had just activated the Qianli Messenger and established contact with the jade talisman on Zhu Yuanzhang's side thousands of miles away, and their faces suddenly changed slightly, and before Zhu Yuanzhang appeared in the mirror floating in the void, they whispered and said to Li Wenzhong and Li Shanchang, "Li Linfu has summoned me, and Master Wuxu has just announced a retreat at the Thousand Buddha Cliff of Qixia Temple. ”

Li Wenzhong and Li Shanchang glanced at each other, and a wordless wry smile faintly emerged. After all, Wuxu and Dashuai are brothers who went down the mountain together, and the Dashuai no longer likes the White Lotus Sect in the army, but he is afraid that they still cherish each other, and they must always leave a line in everything. Now, Master Wuxu is "forced" to retreat in the Governor's Mansion. This kind of situation is obviously not what the marshal wants to see.

Now that the secret transmission talisman of the Zhengyi Sect has been activated, Li Shanchang thought quickly in his heart, how to phrase it, but suddenly heard a loud noise in the sky above the hall, like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and the mirror surface of the jade talisman that appeared in mid-air actually showed a fiery red.

Li Shanchang was slightly stunned, and then shouted in a low voice to Han Songquan and Zhu Leizi, "Quickly lay down the silence barrier! The battle situation ahead must not be leaked out of the hall!"

Han Songquan and Na Zhu Leizi immediately played the trick quickly, and laid down many prohibitions, isolating the hall from the outside world.

But suddenly, there was a sound of laughter on the mirror, and the picture also changed, Zhu Yuanzhang was wearing a black robe, a long horse face, stained with black ashes, and his eyes were bloodshot.

Li Shanchang and Li Wenzhong were very familiar with Zhu Yuanzhang, and after taking a closer look, they shouted in unison, "Dashuai, is Poyang Lake a great victory?!"

The joy hidden on Zhu Yuanzhang's lips suddenly became a little thicker, and then he couldn't help grinning, laughed again, and didn't answer, but turned on one side, and then pressed the right hand of the sword on his waist, raised it straight, and pointed it towards the distance behind him.

The person who manipulated the jade talisman seemed to have his heart, Li Shanchang, Li Wenzhong, Han Songquan, Zhu Leizi and other four people, and saw that the mirror floating in the air was several times larger at once, and the picture was even more with Zhu Yuanzhang sideways, back fingers, from near to far, constantly changing directions.

I saw that the tall warship of the Han army on the opposite side was like a palace of Abe, in the raging fire, only the broken mast and wreckage remained, and the lake was also red, and I didn't know whether it was fire or blood. Farther away, at the junction of lakes and fields, a string of ant-sized, gray-black boats were moving slowly, smaller and lighter, as if they were scrambling to escape this world.

Finally, a set of close-up pictures appeared on the mirror, only to see a flagpole with a large Chinese character written on it, with a raging flame, slowly breaking off, falling from the clouds to the bottom, overturning the surrounding bare ships with only decks, and finally falling into the lake, stirring up countless sparks, countless waves.

Han Songquan pointed to the surface of the lake in the picture, which was half of fire and water, and laughed, "Feng Shui is not extinguished, and the five elements are burned, which is exactly the wonderful use of the Heavenly Thunder Bullet of this sect." The other three, with a smile, took a closer look, and sure enough, in the picture, not only the flame of the flagpole was still burning in the lake, but also the steel knives and iron anchors and other metal things on the boat were all melted, and the flames swayed and jumped with the wind, and seemed to burn bigger and bigger!

Suddenly, Li Shanchang and Li Wenzhong cheered in unison, and at the same time waved their hands vigorously, and said to Han Songquan and Zhu Leizi, "Two masters, quickly remove the ban, such a great victory, it will spread throughout the three armies today!"

At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang's figure reappeared and said, "Slow ——! this time relied on the heavenly thunder bullet of the Zhengyi Sect and hit the Han army hard, but the thief leader Chen Youliang was still fleeing. And when Ben Shuai swept away the Han army and sailors in Poyang Lake, and captured Chen Youliang alive, it was not too late to tell the world. ”

Li Shanchang groaned slightly, "Marshal, the situation in Tianfu is tight, and the hearts of the army and the people are in need of good news. What's more, the Han army is no longer worried, and the marshal should turn back to Yingtianfu as soon as possible to deal with the enemy of the Yuan army in the north. ”

Li Shanchang carefully thought about the words and said very slowly, as if he wanted to let Zhu Yuanzhang have enough time to think while listening.

Zhu Yuanzhang was already too familiar with Li Shanchang, the first batch of literati who followed him to fight the world, whether it was his temperament or behavior, and he couldn't understand it anymore, so he immediately said, "What are the difficulties in Ying Tianfu? ”

Li Shanchang gave up his hand, and explained in detail the matter of Wuxu's tantrum in the hall today, seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang was expressionless, he hesitated slightly, and finally said, "Master Wuxu, after returning to Qixia Temple, he suddenly announced a retreat, according to the speculation of the monks in the army, the master and the king Baobao fought repeatedly, or suffered a secret injury, or had an epiphany, which is why the situation is so urgent, and hurriedly announced the retreat." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang's momentum suddenly changed, his eyes widened angrily, and two rays of light were like golden lightning, causing the mirror in front of Li Wenzhong and the others to fluctuate.

"Bold Yuan Dog, dare to be so rampant! The person who turns around is the time for you to accept your life!" Zhu Yuanzhang made a decision to kill, and his words were like throwing guns and daggers, obviously knowing that Wuxu and Wang Baobao had fought twice, and vaguely guessed that Wuxu was seriously injured.

Then, I saw that his brows were slightly furrowed, "Today he first went to your Governor's Mansion to urge, and then he hurriedly retreated. If I hadn't been seriously injured, or if I had some feelings, I wouldn't have told you about it. Senior Brother Wuxu, he has interrogated me several times, but he has never mentioned that he was seriously injured, but only urged me to turn around as soon as possible. I was careless. Zhu Yuanzhang said in the end, faintly blaming himself.

"Dashuai, if you want to deal with Chen Youliang's guy, it is inevitable that you will miss one of them. Seeing this, Li Wenzhong immediately stepped forward and said.

But in the mirror, Zhu Yuanzhang stood on the surface of the lake, letting the fire raging under his feet, just closing his eyes and looking up at the sky, as if he was thinking and remembering. After a while, he said to Li Wenzhong and Li Shanchang, "Wenzhong, you and Lord Sima, immediately go to the secret vault of the Shuaifu to take out the Yuanyang grass, relics, and Sanqing Dan, and personally send them to the place of Senior Brother Wuxu of Qixia Temple." ”

Yuanyang grass is a precious healing herb, which can replenish vitality and dissolve dark diseases; relics, needless to say, are the treasures of Buddhism and exorcise demonic energy; and Sanqing Dan is a secret pill of Zhengyi Sect, expelling demons, increasing consciousness, and helping to achieve epiphany.

The so-called never eaten pork and seen pigs run, although Li Wenzhong has never stepped into the path of a monk, he has heard the monks in the army talk about them. Listening to Zhu Yuanzhang's instructions, Li Wenzhong couldn't help nodding, but at the end, he looked at Zhu Yuanzhang who was thousands of miles away hesitantly, "Sanqing Dan, there is only one handsome." Master Wuxu is now suffering from a dark injury, is it a different kind of healing elixir?"

Zhu Yuanzhang glared, and Li Wenzhong had no choice but to bow down to receive the order.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at his nephew and sighed slightly, "Wenzhong, Sanqing Dan, is precious and very rare." You have to hand it over to Senior Brother Wuxu with your own hands. ”

Li Wenzhong bowed again and hugged his fists.

Zhu Yuanzhang, but he didn't look at Li Wenzhong's behavior, and said to Li Shanchang, "Lord Sima, this commander will turn around in a few days, and I also ask Lord Sima to prepare a military supply and reward materials." ”

Li Shanchang, facing Zhu Yuanzhang, who is about to return from a big victory and is full of domineering, is also a rare bow, "Good elder, obey the king's orders!"

At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang has not yet been crowned king, but Li Shanchang said so, obviously meaning something.

Zhu Yuanzhang was still expressionless, and his tall and mighty figure gradually faded away, obviously to end the communication.

In the hall of the Governor's Mansion, the four of them couldn't help but feel relieved, as if Zhu Yuanzhang's monstrous momentum had been transmitted through the jade talisman from thousands of miles away, which made the four of them a little overwhelmed and restrained.

But in any case, the victory of Poyang Lake made the four of them extremely happy, and when the jade rune was gone, they had to cheer again in the hall.

In the jade talisman, Zhu Yuanzhang's voice came again, and the atmosphere in the meeting hall of the Governor's Mansion was condensed again.

"Lord Sima, Lan Yu and Senior Brother Wuxu are really masters and apprentices, and now Senior Brother Wuxu is in retreat, and he is asked to pass on the word on his behalf, which shows that he has won the high hopes of Senior Brother Wuxu, but he doesn't know what his military exploits are? ”

Li Shanchang reacted quickly, bowed down again and said, "Shanchang understands. ”

Everyone saw that the floating mirror immediately dispersed with the wind.

That's right

If you are not in your position, you will not climb the edge, and it will be in vain to go around and around.

Retreat but seek liberation and liberation, but the marshal wants to talk about military exploits.
