Shaolin treasure temple, Zen singing.

In the abbot's room, Fang Zheng and Zuo Lengzen played slowly.

Fang Sheng was serving tea on the side, looking at Zuo Lengchan dressed in a graceful and mighty general's military uniform, no matter how strong he was dressed up in the rivers and lakes, and every move, the habits of the rivers and lakes were almost none, but the life and death of the ten thousand armies were inadvertently revealed......

Amitabha...... Fang Sheng silently recited the Buddha's name, and secretly sighed: I haven't seen him for a few months, but I didn't expect the land of Shenzhou to change like this......

At the end of spring, Zuo Lengchan had just lost the authority of the leader of the Wuyue Alliance, and at the beginning of summer, Songshan was swallowed by the Quanzhen Sect's 'Ten Thousand Swords to One' move, and there was no scum left!

People with a heart in the rivers and lakes all thought that Zuo Lengchan would be in a state of collapse, or even be put under house arrest in Huashan by Yue Buqun, and would not be free for the rest of his life.

Who would have thought that Yue Buqun would easily return to the mountain, give Zuo Lengchan a large number of weapons and armor, and send him back to the Songshan area to recruit soldiers and horses, attack the city, and kill the king of the Ming court.

So far, the golden autumn is only five or six months, Zuo Lengchan takes Kaifeng as the foundation, north to Anyang, south to Xuchang, according to half of Henan's radius of thousands of miles, dozens of prefectures and counties, dozens of large cities, more than 40,000 soldiers, and several times to repel the encirclement and suppression of the Ming army, the momentum is extremely strong.

Allah Since the end of April, the army began to besiege the city of Xi'an, and in the past five or six months, it has successively broken through the big cities of nearly eighty Chengzhou counties in Guanzhong, with more than 100,000 troops......

Even so, the Quanzhen Sect's troops were mighty, and they won the entire territory of Guanzhong in one fell swoop. It was strong among many rebel armies in the north and south. One moment in the dark!

Compared to the All-True Righteous Army. Jiangxi is far inferior, Yungui and Yang Yinglong are far inferior.

Even after the vigorous propaganda of well-intentioned people, in the hearts of many people in the north, the Quanzhen Righteous Army is the most likely to replace the corrupt Ming court and establish the country as a benevolent and righteous army.

Zuo Lengchan now has half of Henan, but he still does not dare to explicitly say that he will break away from the jurisdiction of the Quanzhen Sect, just because he knows that the Quanzhen Sect has been silently preparing for more than ten years to compete in the world, and the foundation is so thick that no one can compare.

Yi Yue's martial arts and style of acting. The Quanzhen Sect is now capturing the entire territory of Guanzhong in one fell swoop, but it has just made a force, and it still has the stamina to come, and the next offensive will be even more continuous and irresistible.

On the other hand, he Zuo Lengchan, Ren Wuxing and others started in a hurry, and captured half of the province and one province in one go, but the soldiers were exhausted, the money and food were exhausted, and it was difficult to continue. And had to stop the offensive and switch to turf. Gather strength.

Perhaps, all this was expected by Yue Buqun, and it was also the fundamental reason why Yue Buqun was not afraid to let the tiger return to the mountain...... In fact, without the support of the new army, half of Henan that he had worked so hard to build on his left would inevitably be easily accepted by the Quanzhen Sect!

During the game, Zuo Lengzen's mind flashed, and Er said slowly: "Master Fangzheng......

The momentum of our religion is like the sky, the father and son of the Yue sect are eloquent, and the establishment of a quiet Taoist country in the world is not far away, for the foundation of Shaolin, the master still needs to take precautions as soon as possible, so as not to regret it too late.

My Quanzhen aims at the integration of Taoism, Buddhism, and Confucianism, and the master leads Shaolin and Quanzhen to participate in great events as he wishes, and the father and son of the Yue sect leader may not be able to ask for it!"

Throughout the ages, when Taoism and Buddhism flourished to the extreme, there were quite some radicals who tried in vain to rule the world with one religion and establish a Taoist and Buddhist kingdom that integrated politics and religion.

Even, the influence of the Tantric Living Buddha in Tibet now radiates throughout Tibet, and there are quite some rudiments of Buddhism.

"Zuo Shuai's words are serious, how can people in the empty door open the killing ring indiscriminately?" Fang Zheng politely refused while falling like a fly.

He knew that what Zuo Lengchan said was false for the Quanzhen Sect to surrender, but in fact it meant that after Yue Buqun's father and son won the world, they were likely to establish a huge Taoist country that had never existed in the land of Shenzhou, and rule the national government with the Quanzhen Dao, and Buddhism would inevitably become the first target of the Quanzhen Dao to suppress it, and the Shaolin millennium foundation might be destroyed.

However, Fang Zheng also knew that Yue Buqun had profound wisdom and long-term vision, and would never fail to see that the disadvantages of the integration of politics and religion were too great, and it was extremely unsuitable for the people of Shenzhou who had mixed beliefs.

There may be no doubt that Quanzhen has won the world, but it is really unlikely that he will establish any kind of human dao country!

And Zuo Lengchan came to recruit Shaolin without Yue Buqun's authorization, and he was so alarmist, his intentions were obvious...... It is nothing more than to gain the support of Shaolin, use the power of Shaolin to quickly occupy the entire territory of Henan, and even resist the Quanzhen Sect and break away from the control of the Quanzhen Sect......

However, now Zuo Lengchan's tens of thousands of soldiers and horses are in Zhengzhou, Kaifeng, Songshan Shaolin is in the core of its jurisdiction, it is inevitable to be deterred, once the two sides tear their faces, Zuo Lengchan waved his division to attack, Shaolin could not escape the temple to break the monk's death.

Under all kinds of restraints and fears, Fangzheng had no choice but to be with Zuo Lengzen and wrong......

Of course, if Yue Buqun really had the intention of exterminating Shaolin, Fang Zheng could only cooperate with Zuo Lengchan, so he could not offend Zuo Lengchan to death.

The situation in the world is changing too fast, it is a matter of Shaolin's survival, even if the old scheming is as square as square, it is quite intellectually insufficient, and it is difficult to be quiet for a while.

Sanmenxia Shuanglong Bay, originally surrounded by mountains and rivers, was surrounded by mountains and rivers and beautiful scenery, but at this time, the silence was broken by the sound of bursts of fire.

On the surface of the inlet river, the smoke of gunpowder rose in the wind, and the two fleets of more than ten small boats each fled and chased after each other, and a sense of urgency arose.

Strictly speaking, both fleets were requisitioned fishing boats, both in size and speed, but the two sides on the boat were the elite of the Ming court's Sanmenxia defenders and the Quanzhen Righteous Army.

The leading boat in the rear split the wind and waves, swaying left and right, and a young man in fine armor at the bow of the boat stood as steady as a mountain, seemingly unaffected by the turbulence of the hull, holding a heavy stainless steel shattered fire system tightly in both hands, aiming at a general on the last small boat of the Ming army fleet more than 30 zhang ahead.

The general didn't know that he had been targeted by death, and he was still shouting at his subordinates who were rowing hard, "Hurry up...... Hurry up, haven't you eaten...... Didn't you see that the Quanzhen Sect boxers have caught up......?

"Bang ......"

A dull sound of gunfire was drowned out by the sound of free fire from the pursuing ships, nothing special, but with the smoke of gunpowder, the vest of the enemy general who was aimed in front of him bloomed into a fist-sized blood flower and fell headlong......

The young man put down the fire and smiled with satisfaction.

A subordinate behind him who was also holding a fire command praised: "Lord Lin's marksmanship is like a god, and he killed a guerrilla general of the Ming army, resting on us, it is enough to be promoted by two levels in a row......"

"Not to mention killing a guerrilla general with one shot, even if you kill the general soldier of the Ming army, because of your special status, you can't be promoted to the first and a half level ......"

The young general muttered to himself in his heart, it was Lin Pingzhi, who temporarily served with the Quanzhen Righteous Army, and as the younger brother of the commander-in-chief Yue Shouqian, it was the same whether he was promoted or not.

Glancing back at his subordinates, Lin Pingzhi said with a smile: "If you make persistent efforts and practice your boxing skills to the level of 'dark energy', you will have bright ears and eyes, and your hands and feet will be calm, and you will be able to hit every shot when you use the fire system, and you will be known as a sharpshooter......

Today, Yue Buqun's boxing skills have been popularized in the Quanzhen Righteous Army, and standing pile practice has become another compulsory course for soldiers in their daily drills, in addition to long-distance running and shooting.

Because of this, in addition to being called the Quanzhen Demon Dao and the Quanzhen Sect Bandit by the Ming Court, the Quanzhen Righteous Army is also called the 'Boxing Bandit', which is quite unique.

After the defeat of the 7,000 Ming army, the main generals had to take 100 cronies and capture more than a dozen fishing boats and fled in a hurry. Due to the lack of large ships, it was difficult for the Quanzhen troops to pursue, so Lin Pingzhi was temporarily ordered to take more than 100 elites to pursue by fishing boats.

In his half-year military career, Lin Pingzhi has matured a lot, and he also knows that marching and fighting is not as good as fighting in the rivers and lakes, and personal bravery is not useful at all in many cases.

Seeing that the chase had been for a long time, the fleets of the two sides had barely closed the distance, Lin Pingzhi knew that in the case of the other party's desperate escape, it would be futile to chase it again, so he immediately made a gesture, and the herald behind him immediately held high the flag and waved it repeatedly in a regular manner.

Seeing the flag, more than a dozen fishing boats around immediately stopped, gave up the pursuit, and the continuous sound of fire and fire gradually faded away, allowing the ships of the defeated Ming army in front of them to go away in a hurry......

As soon as he returned to the station of the Quanzhen Righteous Army in Sanmenxia, before Lin Pingzhi could report the unfavorable matter of the pursuit, Yue Shouqian handed him a letter and instructed: "Our army will attack Luoyang next, and your grandfather, the 'Golden Sword Invincible' Old Man Wang, is preparing for the cooperation between the inside and the outside......

Pingzhi, you sneak into Luoyang first, and coordinate with the Wang family and several other wealthy families in Luoyang!" )
