Chapter 167: Breaking Luoyang Again Two generations of monks

Hongnong County was a county from the Han Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty in China, which included the cities of Sanmenxia and the western part of Nanyang City in present-day Henan Province, and the city of Shangluo in southeastern Shaanxi Province. Because it is located on the south bank of the Yellow River between Chang'an and Luoyang, it has always been a military and political important place in all dynasties.

This is the way Chu Yun wants to return to Chang'an, but it is also the second only to the Yangtze River. The Yellow River in this era is worthy of the name of the second largest river in China, second only to the Yangtze River in terms of length and water volume.

Chu Yun wants to return to Yongzhou safely, this is the last and most important test, Zhao sent so many people to stop him, how could he not build any defense here, it is estimated that the ships along the Yellow River have been collected by Da Zhao. If Chu Yun wanted to cross the river, he had to figure out a way by himself.

Sure enough, after the scouts came back, they told Chu Yun that the ships on the east bank of the Yellow River were gone, and that the Great Zhao Army had arranged a tight defense on the west bank of the Yellow River.

"Hmph, do you think I'm stupid to cross the Yellow River, and this is not a little bit worn to death by you? I have been marching westward, just to give you an illusion, pass on my order, and enter Luoyang. Chu Yun sneered, and the fifty thousand iron-blooded Praetorian Guards immediately turned around and killed Luoyang in the north.

Chu Yun believed that his actions had almost exhausted Luoyang's limited forces, and Luoyang was precisely the weakest place in defense, and this was the core of Sili Prefecture, once lost, all the enemy's plans would collapse at least half. Chu Yuncai didn't believe that before he left, the Ming defense arranged by him could be completely destroyed, as long as his descendants did not all defect, he still had a large number of plans to turn the tables.

Three days later, Chu Yun broke through Hongnong City, Hongnong had just entered an army, and before he could build a defense, he was taken by the iron-blooded forbidden army. Da Zhao wanted to cut off his back road, use the Yellow River as a barrier, block himself here, and try to annihilate it in one fell swoop, but no one expected that Chu Yun went to the edge of the Yellow River for a walk, and instead of trying to cross the Yellow River, he killed it back, and the Great Zhao army was caught off guard and was attacked by Chu Yun Hongnong.

The Ming army got the grain and grass of this 10,000 enemy army, and after resting for one night, Chu Yun continued to attack northward, and in just a few days, he broke through several cities and entered Henan County, where Luoyang was located. The whole Luoyang was in a state of turmoil, in order to stop Chu Yun, Shi Di's army of more than 100,000 people had been withdrawn, and there were almost no people in Luoyang, and Shi Di was completely dumbfounded.

"Master, you want to save me. Shi Di immediately went to find Buddha Tucheng, after all, all this was done by Buddha Tucheng asked him to do it. As soon as he saw Buddha Tucheng, Shi Di hugged Buddha Tucheng's thigh and cried, Shi Di was no longer the Shi Di who dared to personally lead the troops into battle, these years of drunken life and dream death, he had already fallen.

When Shi Di told him about Chu Yun's movements, Fo Tucheng's face became ugly.

"Your Highness, you get up first, there are only a few people in the whole world who can make me see my fate clearly, this Chu Yun is one of them, his life is vague, as if he is not like the people here, the poor monk can't see through it, he can still survive in this environment, admire and admire." Fo Tucheng's voice became smaller and quieter the more he spoke, and he didn't even hear Shi Di beside him clearly in the words that followed.

"Your Royal Highness, for today's plan, we only have to defend for half a month, the Ming puppet emperor will no longer be able to run, in the entire Sili Prefecture, we have gathered hundreds of thousands of troops, even if the puppet emperor Chu Yun is a god, it will never be possible to make waves. And we still have 20,000 troops and hundreds of thousands of people in Luoyang, as well as strong and towering city walls, plus His Royal Highness personally guarded it, there is absolutely no problem in defending it for half a month. If His Highness can really use his body as bait to annihilate the puppet Emperor Chu Yun, then His Highness will become the hero of my Great Zhao, and I will definitely ask Your Majesty to reward Your Highness at that time. His Royal Highness may not be able to reach the height of Lingzun. After Buddha Tucheng finished speaking, Shi Di was happy in his heart, the height of Lingzun that this monk said, that is the first person to be a military general, an important minister who controls the government and politics, and may not even be able to ascend to that position, you must know that your father Shi Hu has told him many times that he is Shi Le's successor, and the extravagant hope hidden in the deepest part of his heart makes Shi Di hot when he thinks about it.

However, Shi Di quickly calmed down, he is not a fool, what kind of person is Chu Yun? he is invincible, and even if he has a strong city to defend, he may not be able to withstand it, and it didn't take Chu Yun half a month to break through so many cities. Thinking about this, Shi Di was afraid.

Buddha Tucheng knew what he was thinking as soon as he saw Shi Di's expression, he scolded the tiger father and dog in his heart, Shi Hu is the tiger of the Qiang tribe, in the eyes of the Qiang people, Chu Yun defeated Shi Hu because he used conspiracy and tricks, of course, Chu Yun did use tricks, so the people of Zhao Guo felt that Shi Hu was not defeated, it was the enemy's trick. This is also Shi Le's propaganda, after all, his god of war was defeated, and it was also a blow to the morale of the Great Zhao Kingdom, so with Shi Le's support, the entire Great Zhao Xuan Chu Yun used tricks.

This statement even affected the decision-making level of Zhao State, and the current emperor Shi Hong and others also thought so, and it was true that the lie was repeated too much. Therefore, for Chu Yun, the entire decision-making level of Da Zhao attached great importance to it with disdain, it is estimated that this is something that Shi Le did not expect, back then he was just to weaken the impact of the fossil tiger's capture, but he did not expect to let the descendants fall into such an inexplicable situation, and he also knew that it was too long to despise the most dangerous enemy.

Fo Tucheng is no exception, this high-status national teacher-level figure has also been influenced by Shi Le's propaganda, thinking that Chu Yun is not Erer, I have to say that if a person wants to find death, even the Lord of Yama can't save it.

"Your Highness, don't worry, the poor monk has brought several good hands this time, if the puppet emperor personally makes a move, I will stop him, and you just want to resist the soldiers of the Ming Kingdom, it shouldn't be difficult for His Royal Highness who is brave and good at fighting. Buddha Tucheng said so, and Shi Di could only agree.

But he has always been fighting on the front line with Daming, and he knows how powerful Daming is, so he still sent several of his children to Yizhou, and for this, Fo Tucheng has nothing to do.

A few days later, Chu Yun's army didn't take care of the surrounding small towns at all, and directly killed Luoyang, because Shi Di concentrated his forces in Luoyang, so he didn't encounter any resistance, and Chu Yun came to Luoyang City.

This is the second time Chu Yun has attacked Luoyang, the last time he was still the identity of the Jin army, but this time he became the emperor, I have to say that the world is really impermanent.

Chu Yun sent scouts to search the vicinity of Luoyang several times, and sure enough, there was no trap around Luoyang, Chu Yun really hit the most critical place of Da Zhao, once Luoyang was lost, the entire Da Zhao layout was likely to go bankrupt.

Chu Yun saw the big monk on the city wall at a glance, this is a tall and thin middle-aged man, his eyes are sunken, his bones are protruding, and he has Hu blood at a glance, of course, he is actually a Hu person, a Hu person can be mixed in the Central Plains, which also has a lot to do with the Han people's willingness to fall and be occupied by the Hu people, otherwise Buddhism, the religion of the Hu people, how could it be possible to sit in the Central Plains.

This guy's strength turned out to be the same as that of the Living Buddha, he was at the peak of the ground level, but it seemed that he was more dangerous than his own master to Chu Yun, and there were three divine stone controllers by his side, but it was only in the early and middle stage of the ground level Chu Yun didn't pay attention to it at all. This is to be hard steel with yourself, is there a problem in Luoyang City?

"Your Majesty, a letter from Luoyang from the brother of the Supervision Division. Cheng Yang, deputy commander of the Supervision Department, ran over excitedly.

"Oh?" Chu Yun took it with some surprise, could it be that the Supervision Department in Luoyang was still operating normally? Chu Yun didn't believe anyone now, but since the other party had information, there was no problem in taking a look at it himself.

"What about the person who delivered the letter?" asked Chu Yun after reading it.

"Your Majesty, he's resting in the back. Cheng Yang said immediately.

"Luoyang is under martial law, how did he get out?" Chu Yun asked again.

"He was originally outside Luoyang City, and he only came to report the news after receiving the carrier pigeon in the city, why? Could this news be fake?" Cheng Yang asked with a frown.

"I'm not sure if this news is fake, but there must be something wrong with the Supervision Department in Luoyang City, Shi Di is not a fool, many people know the way our Supervision Department transmits the news, I don't believe that he will not pay attention to the sky after martial law. Of course, this may also be a message that they deliberately asked the Inspectorate to pass on. Chu Yun handed the letter to Cheng Yang, and Cheng Yang took it and looked at it.

"What, there are only 20,000 people in such a big Luoyang City?" Cheng Yang asked in surprise, but his face soon became tangled again.

"Your Majesty, do you think this is going to be fake?" Just now, Chu Yun said that there might be a problem with the Supervision Department in the city, so Cheng Yang would have this question.

"It should be true. As soon as Chu Yun finished speaking, Cheng Yang was stunned.

"Why did they ask the Supervision Department to pass on the real information?" asked Cheng Yang puzzled.

"They are afraid that we will run away, give us hope, let us attack the city, and want to drag us here. They look confident. Chu Yun said with a smile, and Cheng Yang suddenly realized.

"Then what should we do?" Cheng Yang looked at Chu Yun.

"What should we do? According to the original plan, Luoyang will be defeated, Luoyang has a population of hundreds of thousands, and it is also the hub and grain and grass base of the Zhao front, as long as we lay down here, the Ming Dynasty can change from passive to active, don't they want to entrust us here? We will follow their wishes. Chu Yun said with a smile.

Chu Yun let a thousand dark guards take the lead, these people all carried hooks and locks that were more than ten meters long, and crossed the mountains and mountains like walking on the ground, Chu Yun was ready to take action in person, let the dark guards follow, and Chu Yun was ready to take a male city in one day.

"Kill. Chu Yun took the lead, the arrows on the city kept shooting at Chu Yun, Chu Yun didn't even look at the arrows and killed the city, Chu Yun slapped the horse's buttocks, and the black horse immediately ran away spiritually, more than ten meters of the city wall, Chu Yun jumped up with a slight jump.

Buddha Tucheng didn't expect Chu Yun to be so biao, didn't they all say that the role of outsiders is generally a strategic weapon, and they won't act rashly easily? But now why did Chu Yun run straight up, you don't play cards according to common sense.

Shi Tucheng beside Fo Tucheng was also startled, he reflexively ran behind Fo Tucheng, Fo Tucheng was very speechless, you are also the master of the Divine Stone, okay, and you are the history of the assassin, you are the prince, in front of so many subordinates, can you fight for some anger? But Fo Tucheng still did not speak, after all, so many people watched.

He walked towards Chu Yun with his hands folded, wanting to say a few words of greeting, after all, he was also a generation of senior monks.

Boom, Chu Yun didn't play his cards according to common sense, the Divine Stone Demon Source was murderous, all the soldiers of the Zhao State around him were shot into hedgehogs, and a large area of the city wall defense became blank, and the direction of Fo Tu Cheng was taken aback, but his reaction was not slow at all, he actually propped up a golden barrier to protect several of them.

But Fo Tu Cheng obviously underestimated Chu Yun's demon source murderous aura, the barrier actually shattered after bearing a few demon source murderous aura, Fo Tucheng was shocked, but it was too late, he could only pull a small monk beside him to the side, and quickly propped up several layers of barriers, Shi Di and the other two divine stone controllers were miserable, they completely overestimated Buddha Tucheng, and it was too late to make a move. Moreover, they also underestimated Chu Yun's Demon Source Murderous Aura, although Chu Yun's Demon Source Murderous Qi was not as good as the attack of the Heavenly Rank, but below the Heavenly Rank, the lethality of the Demon Source Murderous Qi had reached its peak.

Shi Di and the two mid-level Divine Stone Controllers didn't even have time to react, they were shocked by the domineering Demon Source Murderous Aura, and I have to say that Chu Yun's strength was really much higher than they imagined.

"Your Highness. Buddha Tucheng couldn't believe it and watched the three Divine Stone Controllers die under Chu Yun's easy blow, this is Chu Yun's strength? It turns out that his master was really killed by him, even if he is a living Buddha, he doesn't have such strength. His strength has reached the level of the master, and even surpassed. This is where the confidence of Buddha Tucheng to take revenge lies, but now it seems that he is still thinking too simply.

But before the battle began, Shi Di hung up, so Luoyang was about to fall, could he escape alive? Even if he escaped, then Da Ming's strength skyrocketed, what way did Da Zhao have to live? If the big move was over, then what should Buddhism do? Chu Yun's attitude towards Buddhism was not good, could it be that the inheritance of Buddhism should be cut off in his own hands?

No, by no means, Fo Tucheng glanced at the monk behind him, this is his apprentice, called Dao'an, he is only in his twenties this year, but he is the most satisfied apprentice, it is the hope of the rise of his Buddhism, he wants to let his apprentice escape.

"Dao An, I'll restrain him for a while, you go quickly, stay in the green mountains, you are a smart child, you are the hope of the rise of Buddhism, you stay here, our Buddhism will be completely finished, remember?" Buddha Tucheng said in Tianzhu, this is not afraid that Chu Yun can understand, after hearing this, Dao An just looked at the master and nodded, without leaking a trace of emotion, Buddha Tucheng was very happy in his heart, his apprentice understood himself, and he had a wise root.

Chu Yun really didn't know what they were thinking, but Chu Yun had a true eye, he felt the thoughts in Buddha Tucheng's heart, and he actually wanted to use his own life to exchange his apprentice for escape, the more this happened, the more Chu Yun didn't let him get his wish.

Fo Tucheng looked at Chu Yun, Chu Yun did not hide the killing intent in his apprentice's eyes, Fo Tucheng was shocked, did he understand Tianzhu dialect?

"Your Majesty, Dao'an is just a child, the old man is willing to exchange his life for a life, and beg His Majesty to spare the apprentice. Buddha Tucheng actually knelt in front of Chu Yun, Chu Yun glanced at the secret guard and still successfully entered Luoyang, so he didn't rush to kill the killer, Chu Yun walked over without hurrying.

"Old monk, if you want to leave, I may not be able to catch you, why don't you take your own life for such an apprentice?" Chu Yun said with a smile.

"Your Majesty, our Buddhist disciples pay attention to the root of wisdom, and the poor monk has reached the limit, but my apprentice is far more promising than the poor monk, so the poor monk seeks benevolence and is willing to exchange his life for a life. I hope Your Majesty will agree. Buddha Tucheng said reverently.

"What if I don't agree?" Chu Yun shook his head.

Buddha Tucheng slowly stood up, and a powerful self-confidence suddenly burst out from his body, and Chu Yun also looked sideways.

"Your Majesty, to tell you the truth, if the poor monk is really forced to fight with Your Majesty, then I must not be Your Majesty's opponent, but it is absolutely impossible for Your Majesty to take me down in a short time. I can hold off Your Majesty for a few days, but Your Majesty may not have time to spend time with the poor monks. Buddha Tucheng said confidently.

"Oh, I have a lot of time, even if it takes ten days and half a month to kill you, the Great Zhao National Master, I think it's worth it, and you may not be able to resist for so long. Chu Yun said with a sneer.

"Your Majesty, you look down on the poor monk too much, but the poor monk has the ability of two divine stones, I don't believe you. After Buddha Tucheng finished speaking, the breath of his whole body skyrocketed, and a red-gold Buddha slowly condensed in front of him, and the breath of the Buddha continued to skyrocket, reaching the strength of the half-step heavenly step, and then the Buddha quickly coincided with the Buddha Tucheng, and the momentum of the Buddha Tucheng almost reached the heavenly level, and Chu Yun's face became solemn.

"Your Majesty, now do you see if what I said is exaggerating? And tell your Majesty the truth, I really fused two divine stones, this is only one of them, the other ability is called discernment, can perceive, know before and after, everything is clear, and even can see through time and space. Although this ability of the poor monk is not one-ten-thousandth, but it can see through Your Majesty's moves for a short time, so it is absolutely impossible for Your Majesty to take down the poor monk in a short time. If the poor monk didn't come with his apprentice this time, the poor monk really wanted to see your methods, but unfortunately I know that I can't protect the apprentice, Your Majesty, do you want to talk to me now?" Although Chu Yun's face did not move, he was shocked in his heart, this Buddha Tucheng actually used two divine stones, and his ability was so strong, it was really extraordinary, Chu Yun wanted to know how he did it, and looked at the little monk behind him, is it worth it for an apprentice?

Of course, if Chu Yun knew who this Dao An was, he wouldn't have this question.

There are two major schools of Buddhism, one is Zen and the other is Prajna, and Dao Anshi is the culmination of the two systems. He advocated the study of "original nothingness" (i.e., color is emptiness), one of the six schools of Prajna learning, and established the precepts and advocated that monks should take "Sha" as their surname, which will be followed by later generations, and until now Buddhist disciples are all Shakti. He has many disciples, all over the north and south, and famous monks such as Huiyuan and Huizhi are all out of his door. Dao An was the presiding officer of the translation of the scriptures at that time, and under his supervision, he translated more than 100,000 words of the "Four Ahan" and "Abhitan" and other scriptures, perfecting the works of Buddhism. The stylistic issues of translation and the translation principles of "five lost originals" and "three difficult ones" have had a great impact on later generations. He was erudite and knowledgeable, and was known for his literary talents, and his articles were valued by the literati of the time. In later generations, Dao An was known as the Bodhisattva of Indo, which shows his status in Buddhism.

It can be said that without Dao'an, there would be no later Buddhism.

Of course, Chu Yun didn't know the importance of this Dao'an, and even if he knew, he didn't care, he just wanted to use this Dao'an's life and death now to know some secrets that he didn't know.

"Old monk, I can let your disciple go, do you want to show your sincerity first?" you tell me everything you know," After Chu Yun finished speaking, Buddha Tucheng's face was happy, he folded his hands and bowed to Chu Yun, and said something that shocked Chu Yun.

"Your Majesty, if you don't care about the comfort of your wife and children in Chang'an, the poor monk has time to explain your majesty's doubts. Chu Yun's face changed after hearing this.
