Chapter 402: The Battle of the Human World, but by Man
The battle was written by Ji Fa himself, as Zhang Zixing expected, the tactics were based on the old incident of the Chaoge being plagued by the warlock under the throne of Yue as an argument, and pointed out that Gao You's Gandao technique had recently used poison in Xiqi to harm the military and civilians of a city, and put forward the view that "the battle of the human world is man-made", and demanded that Taoist or immortal ginseng be prohibited from mixing with wars to harm innocent people.
If the great merchants had the courage to accept the challenge of the Western Zhou Dynasty, they would not rely on the immortals, not on the techniques of the left side of the door, and rely on manpower to fight in a dignified manner, and the Western Zhou Dynasty would do their best to fight. If he failed, Ji Fa himself was willing to surrender to the Great Shang Heavenly Prison to confess his guilt, and the Western Zhou Dynasty should completely bow down to the Great Shang and never make trouble again.
This battle caused a great deal of controversy in the DPRK and China. Shang Rong, Bi Gan, Mei Bo, Jiang Wenhuan and others believed that with the current national strength and military strength of the Great Shang, even if they did not rely on such mysterious things as immortals and Taoism, they could defeat the Western Zhou Dynasty. Since the Son of Heaven ascended the throne, in the conventional battles carried out, the achievements against the Eastern Qi, the Dog Rong, and the Western Zhou are the best proof. The Western Zhou Dynasty united the north and the south, and the Great Shang became a confrontation situation, which was difficult to take down for a while, so protracted, wars and chaos were frequent, and the lives were devastated. Now that the Western Zhou Dynasty has taken the initiative to solve the problem by conventional warfare, it is just right to take advantage of the situation to end this war, calm the world, and return the people to a peaceful and prosperous era.
But the voice of the opposition side is not small, its representative Wen Zhong also specially took the ink qilin to rush back from Bishui Pass, and urged the Son of Heaven not to be calculated, while Hong Jin, the four generals of the Demon Family and others resolutely stood on Wen Zhong's side--- and the magic and Taoism are the huge advantages of the great merchants, and they must not be ignored. Many of the famous generals of the great merchants are armed with Taoist treasures. The combat effectiveness is extremely strong, which is also a point that the Western Zhou Dynasty is far inferior to the big merchants. If you take the initiative to give up this advantage, it is equivalent to using your own not the strongest side to fight against the enemy's strongest side, and your chances of victory will be greatly reduced.
On weekdays, Wen Zhong and Bigan, Shang Rong and others complement each other in military and political affairs, and they are very compatible. But when they encountered this key issue, they all pulled down their faces and argued. Both sides have a point, therefore. The Son of Heaven could not decide.
At this time, Xiaoyaozi, the national teacher who had not been heard from for a long time, appeared. Support Wen Zhong's side. Xiaoyaozi analyzed the current situation very thoroughly, among the three major immortal sects, the exposition and the Western religion supported the Western Zhou Dynasty, while the interception sect sided with the Great Shang. It is possible to agree to the request of the Western Zhou Dynasty, and both sides ask the immortals and even saints of these sects not to participate in and intervene in the war, but the two armies originally had the ability of the earth, but they could not give up the advantage of Taoism. If not, wouldn't it be necessary for the generals of the Great Shang to give up their strengths and use their weaknesses to fight for the enemy's lives? If he could get the Western Zhou to agree to this article (the two sides separated from the immortal saints), he would have nine percent certainty of defeating the Western Zhou and the princes of the world.
If this is the case, even if either Kong Xuan or Xingtian is dispatched, the battle can be easily resolved.
The Western Zhou side would not agree, and the messenger who sent the war to the war, Feng Qi, made it clear. If you don't give up Taoism, it will be contrary to the original intention of the Western Zhou Dynasty to not harm the innocent and a fair duel, if so, the Western Zhou will lead the princes of the world to fight against the Great Shang to the end with the help of the immortals, even if the war drags on for decades or hundreds of years.
The cockroach also publicly declared that the great merchant son of heaven is wise and brave, establishes three, creates strange things, and prays for seven days to relieve the drought in the world...... Serve all over the world. Now, in order to save all the people of the world from suffering from the scourge of war. May we fight with dignity. If you lose, you are willing to accept the guilt and bow your head. Why didn't the Son of Heaven dare to fight? Could it be that he forgot the heart of serving the people in the past?
This wind cockroach's words are so powerful, and one word hits the key point of the Son of Heaven, making the Son of Heaven hesitate again.
Just when the Son of Heaven hesitated, the two princes, Zijiao and Zihong entered the palace overnight and had a long talk all night.
This long talk is considered to be the key to the decision of the Son of Heaven.
The next day, the Son of Heaven summoned the Western Zhou Dynasty envoy Feng Qi alone in the Longde Palace, and after some discussion, he finally made the final decision, and in the subsequent court meeting, the Son of Heaven convened the ministers and announced his decision, agreeing to the requirements of the Western Zhou Dynasty, not using all Taoist techniques in the future battles between the two sides, and fighting with conventional warfare. ^^^^ book ^^ first issue ^^
Taishi Wenzhong and the national teacher Xiaoyaozi hurriedly advised, but the will of the Son of Heaven had been decided, and the two had to give up. Shang Rong, Bigan and others were called the wise Son of Heaven. The cockroach was overjoyed, praising the Son of Heaven for the people's kindness to the world, and thanked him repeatedly.
Xiaoyaozi was resourceful, and seeing that the Son of Heaven had made up his mind and could not be changed, he immediately proposed: Although the opinions of the two sides of the human world have been unified, as mortals, they cannot influence the decisions of those immortals and even saints, so the two sides must ask for the consent of the immortals of all parties behind them, and only after it is determined, can the war start. If the saint does not agree, the agreement does not count.
The cockroach also had the ability to change, so he agreed, but asked the Son of Heaven to announce today's resolution to the world in the "Dashang Quarterly", and once the saints of all parties reached an agreement, they would begin to face off "in a dignified manner".
The Son of Heaven agreed, and admired the talent of this little-known messenger Feng Qi very much, and intended to keep it, and promised the above doctor a high position of real power and a large number of rewards. In the face of the temptation of high-ranking officials, the cockroach was unmoved, and said lightly, "Loyal ministers don't care about the two masters", and floated away, which made the ministers secretly praise.
The cockroach returned to Xiqi and was greeted by Ji Fa. Ji Fa has been paying close attention to this trip to the Song of the Wind, and he knows all about the disputes between the DPRK and China before, as well as the fact that Xiaoyaozi almost said that the Son of Heaven was moved. Later, the wind cockroach was in danger, and the clever words were opposite, which alleviated the critical situation, and finally made the Son of Heaven make the most beneficial decision for the Western Zhou Dynasty.
In the final stage, the cockroach still played an important role, and in the case that the supporters behind the other party did not agree, let the Son of Heaven promise to tell the world about the matter, and even could not regret it, which is the biggest contributor to the success of this plan. And the discipline that didn't care about the high-ranking reward promised by the Son of Heaven moved Ji Fa even more, and he trusted this cockroach who was willing to be a staff member of Xiqi. This kind of trust has surpassed Jiang Ziya and even Yang Ren.
Next. That is, Jiang Ziya and Gandharpo were invited to explain the teachings and Western teachings and listen to the instructions of the sage.
Yuan Shi Tianzun, who expounded the teaching, had already learned of Xiqi's plan, and had sent the dark chess pieces Zijiao and Zihong who had been set up early in the morning to Chaoge to promote this matter, and now it was really as he calculated. Dashang finally agreed to the conditions of the Western Zhou Dynasty and was greatly satisfied.
Western religions are also very aware of the current situation, and they know that they cannot defeat the sect on their own. And the current relationship between Ganda Po and Ji Fa is very ambiguous, and she also brought back some heartwarming promise from Ji Fa. Therefore, there is no earthly objection. It's just that Xiaoyaozi recently asked the messenger of joy to bring back a letter, which was presented to the two saints.
The letter noted: Xiaoyaozi aimed at the three Bodhisattvas Cihang, Fuxian, and Manjushri under the Timen, and gave them three volumes of Taoist essence to promote **, and he said that day "Before coming to Japan, I only ask for a word from the West."
This statement was supposed to be a rainy day. For the purpose of getting rid of misfortune in the future, but now the Western Zhou Dynasty has put forward a request to the Great Shang to ban the Dao arts, so he can only use this promise in advance. Killing and robbery is a number of days, not the battle of the human world can be ended, and he Xiaoyaozi now begs the Western Sect for a word---- not to agree to the request of the Western Zhou.
The usher and the would-be guide saw this letter. Gu smiled at each other: This Xiaoyaozi is really wise, no wonder he saw that after the Son of Heaven made a decision, there was a saying that "if the sage does not agree, then this agreement cannot be counted", it turned out that he actually left a hand, and actually wanted to use this method to break this agreement. But the more Xiaoyaozi acted like this, the more it meant that he was worried about the situation of Dashang, and if a wise man like Xiaoyaozi was so worried, then the Western Zhou's grasp this time must be quite large, and it would undoubtedly be more beneficial to Western Christianity.
The quasi-Tidao person immediately replied with his own hand: the battle of the human world. But by man. This is the discretion of the human world, and it is also the trend of the day. The words of the Taoist friends. Forgive me, the matter of the three bodhisattvas will be reported separately in the future. If a Taoist friend has the heart to join the sect, the door of Elysium will be open for Taoist friends at any time.
As everyone knows, Zhang Zixing also smiled when he received the reply. ^^^^ if the conditions didn't allow it, he really wanted to reply with four words to Zhun Ti: I want to get away with it.
After asking for the "failure" of the Western Sect, Xiaoyaozi "unwillingly" came to Biyou Palace again, asking to see the leader of the Tongtian Sect.
Sanxiao also accompanied him to see the master, and the master of the Tongtian Sect was very relieved to see that the three daughters had indeed recovered, and their strength was still improving, so he immediately ordered the three daughters to retire temporarily, and summoned Zhang Zixing into the palace for a secret talk alone.
Zhang Zixing and this sectarian saint are old acquaintances, and they are also the son-in-law of Biyou Palace, so they are not restrained when they meet, and after a few polite words, they began to get straight to the topic: "Now that the exposition of the sect and the Western religion have been decided, it is presumable that they will unite with the saints soon, and ask the sect master to go to discuss the war in the human world." ”
The Tongtian Sect Master sighed: "The merit of scheming can even be as good as this! Even if it is a mixed circle saint, it is not inevitable to follow the Tao." This plan is interlocking, leading people to unconsciously enter the trap, which is enough to achieve the success of a hundred battles, and it really opens the eyes of the poor road. His Majesty is far-sighted and anticipates the enemy's opportunities everywhere, which can be described as unparalleled in wisdom. If Your Majesty is a saint, I don't have to fight with the second senior brother anymore, just bow down. ”
It was not the first time that Zhang Zixing had heard the Tongtian Sect Master sigh like this, and he hurriedly said: "After all, the strategy and trickery are just a small way, and in the end, it still depends on strength. In the future battle of Xuandao, you will have to rely on the sect leader more. ”
The Tongtian Sect Master smiled slightly, but he was noncommittal, and said: "The Interpretation Sect and the Western Sect support the Western Zhou Dynasty so much, presumably because they have received some kind of promise from Ji Fa, if they are the Son of Heaven in the future, what should they do." Now, as the supreme of the human world, Your Majesty has never made any promises to our sect. If Your Majesty's plan succeeds in the end, I don't know what promises I can make?"
Zhang Zixing sighed secretly: No matter how close the relationship between the two sides is, they will eventually have to face the problem of interests, and even this saint is not exempt from vulgarity. Of course, there is no such thing as a free lunch, and this problem will need to be solved sooner or later.
"Sect Master, I don't know what kind of commitment you want?" Zhang Zixing's tone changed, and he gently shifted the focus of this question to the other party. Although the tone is flat at this moment, the atmosphere in the palace is not as relaxed as before, no matter how friendly the negotiation is, it is a negotiation after all.
"Then in His Majesty's plan, what will I get by intercepting the sect?" The Tongtian Sect Master knew that this ally was the most scheming and difficult to deal with, so he cheered up and pushed the burden back.
Zhang Zixing said with a smile: "Ji Fa can make the hearts of the two saints of the Exposition Sect and the Western Sect move, and he must have the promise of respecting a certain sect alone. But it is exclusive. The Western religion and the exposition of the religion can only choose one or the other, and the two religions must still have mutual calculations. Sect Master, do you want the widow to make such a promise?"
The Tongtian Sect Master didn't say anything, but just asked, "Your Majesty thinks that my sect interception is worthy of such a promise?"
Zhang Zixing bypassed this topic. He asked, "Dare to ask the sect leader, what do you want from your sect, the exposition sect, and the Western sect in the midst of the killing?"
The Tongtian Sect Master smiled and said, "Your Majesty is wise, you and I don't need to go around in circles anymore. Please ask Your Majesty to speak directly, and listen to the poor way. ”
"The saint is too polite. How dare a widow be a widow?" Zhang Zixing politely said: "The widow dares to guess that what the various sects have done in the killing and robbery is nothing more than two, one is the disciple, and the other is luck. The widow once told the sect leader in Biyou Palace that in the original days, your sect was suppressed by the Interpretation Sect and the Western Sect. The doorman is either on the list, or he is tempered to the West. The sect leader alone is invincible to the four saints, the elite is lost, and there is only one disciple left by his side, and the exposition and Western religions have greatly benefited. Equally. The widow is also a death from the country and the ending of being on the list. Nowadays, the Western religion and the exposition of the religion have broken their faces, and the elites of the two religions have suffered many casualties and defected, while your religion has never wavered in its core strength while sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight. Now, if this plan is successful, the momentum of people can be determined, and the two potentials of time and place can be gathered, and your religion can also be removed from the chaff in the subsequent killing and robbery, and a large number of people with extremely strong roots will be preserved, and it will become the foundation of prosperity in the future. All things are withered and prosperous, and luck has its own ups and downs, which cannot be constant. But as long as all the elites are there. As for those who lack the root nature and are on the list and should be robbed, they can also be crowned righteous gods. And the exposition of the religion and the Western religion so far. The elite has been half broken, and there are only three people left in the five great Ming kings and eight tribes of the Western Sect, and the Xuanxian Burning Lamp Daoist has apostasy, five of the twelve golden immortals have died, four have betrayed, and only three people remain, and the two sects have formed an insoluble grudge. In this battle of Xuandao, there will inevitably be losses. Coupled with the battle of the human world, our great business should win by surprise, destroy the Western Zhou Dynasty, dominate the world, and make all the calculations of the two religions come to naught. Among the three religions, there is no need to say who the final winner is. ”
The Tongtian Sect Master heard him speak reasonably, especially the sentence "The elites are all here, why worry about the bad luck", and nodded secretly when he heard it. Speaking of which, this Son of Heaven strategized, led the two religions to fight each other, and concealed the world, secretly determined the trend of the human world, and sure enough, as he said in the Biyou Palace back then, he gradually took the right time, place and people into his hands, and then the elite did not lose the interception of religion can override the already torn religion and Western religion. However, praise is praise, since he is now negotiating with this son of heaven as the master of the sect, he wants to strive for the greatest interests as much as possible.
"Your Majesty, according to the poor road, the final winner of this should be Your Majesty. The Tongtian Sect Master shook his head and said: "In this battle between the three sects, Your Majesty's strategy has played an extremely important role, but Your Majesty also said that after all, the strategy and trickery are just a small way, and in the end, it still depends on strength." If we really separate the battle between the human world and the Xuan Dao, even according to Your Majesty's calculations, our sect should also lose a lot of people. Now that Your Majesty has married the fourth daughter of my sect, and he has made friends with many people in the sect, he is not an outsider. Poor Dao only hopes that after His Majesty rules the world, he will be able to look at my sect differently. ”
Zhang Zixing understood the meaning of "looking at each other in the other eye", pondered for a moment, and said: "Since the sect leader does not abandon and does not treat the widow as an outsider, the widow will say a few words from the bottom of his heart. In fact, it is only a matter of one sentence to ask a few people to agree to the saints, depose the hundred schools, and respect the sect alone. However, the widow believes that the so-called doctrine can be regarded as a kind of ideological cultivation derived from the sect master, and it can be said that if this kind of academic thought is a kind of academic thought, its role is from the immortal who teaches by word and deed, and the mortal who believes in it. I hope that people in the world can affirm this kind of ideological cultivation and take it as their own behavior and moral code, so that more and more people will accept and believe in this kind of thinking from their hearts and carry it forward. It is not to use it to control the king and control the human world. The widow cultivates lowly and has shallow knowledge, and if there is anything inappropriate, please ask the saint to correct it. After hearing Zhang Zixing's explanation of doctrine and luck, the Tongtian Sect Master praised in his heart: "Your Majesty, why should you be too humble? This explanation is very much in line with my heart, it is exactly like this!"
Zhang Zixing got up and saluted, and said in a loud voice: "The sect leader recruits disciples, and the teaching without class is even more heartfelt admiration of the widow. Your religion is like a sea that embraces all rivers, and tolerance is great, so its strength is the crown of the three religions. But the few people dare to ask the sect leader, if the sect leader is like the sage of the sect, Yuan Shi Tianzun, and only accepts a certain clan as disciples, and the rest are all denied, I wonder if your sect still has the current trend?"
"There is no such thing as it is now. This is also the point that the Tongtian Sect Master is most proud of, he nodded without hesitation at the moment, but then reacted again, "Your Majesty means ......"
"The same is true of academic thought. Academic ideas and viewpoints are different, and through arguments and comparisons, continuous improvement and development can be promoted, and the chaff can be eliminated, but if the power of the king's administration is used to strengthen the family, depose the remnant, and simplify the complex, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. There are profits and losses in the month, there are ups and downs in things, there are more than enough in the way of heaven, if there is no profit and loss, it is just a pool of stagnant water, which is not only against the way of heaven, but also cannot really last and grow......" Zhang Zixing showed a sincere look, and said eloquently, making the Tongtian Sect Master show a thoughtful look, "...... Just like the power of a king, the Son of Heaven is a dictatorial and dictatorial person, a combination of the power of the world, and many of them are arbitrary or arbitrary, even if they are the king, there are many shortcomings, and if the king is faint, the people of the world will suffer from it......!
The Tongtian Sect Master couldn't help but be taken aback when he heard that he denied the absolute power of the monarch's land, if it weren't for Zhang Zixing himself being the Son of Heaven, but for another person to say such bold and nonsense, the Tongtian Sect Master would only be a madman. However, as Zhang Zixing combined with the theory of social development in later generations, analyzed the development and evolution of various social systems step by step, and confirmed that the monarch would eventually be replaced by a more democratic system, the Tongtian Sect Master was finally shocked and began to face up to the "crazy words" that Zhang Zixing said.
