Chapter 292: Forming an Alliance with the Tang Dynasty The Danger of Buddhism
The Tang Empire's victory over the Great Chu Empire to achieve the unification of the Southern Toad Continent is not that the strength of the Tang Dynasty is stronger than that of the Great Chu Empire, but their strategy is relatively clever. Attacking the enemy's shortcomings with his own strengths, knowing that his side's top combat power was not as good as the side of the Great Chu Empire, he relied on the bottom army to achieve victory. He sent a quasi-saint not to seek merit, but only to be able to contain Buddhism and the quasi-saint of the three clans, while Wu Cong challenged Li Si as a king and finally won the victory.
Datang won the final victory and digested the entire fruits of victory. Obtained the luck of a continent in the south of the Toad. Yunmen's luck has long been bound to the Tang Empire, and one is prosperous and the other is lost. Datang has achieved a huge amount of luck, and Yunmen will naturally not be bad, and at this time, Yunmen's luck can really be compared with other sage sects.
As the first to fund the Tang Dynasty, the Wuren lineage and the Wu clan naturally shared the luck of the Tang Dynasty, but it was much worse than Yunmen. Moreover, at this time, the Cloud Gate Sect Master is the Witch Emperor of the Wu Clan, but there is some luck connection between the two. Zhang Yuntian can be said to enjoy the luck of the Cloud Gate and the Wu Clan.
Although the victory of the Tang Dynasty achieved huge results, Buddhism, as an opponent, did not suffer much loss, but gained slightly. The fall of the Great Chu Empire caused most of the officials of the Great Chu Empire to worry that their future would be liquidated by the Tang Empire in the future.
Although the cultivation of these people is uneven, Buddhism attaches importance to their internal affairs ability, although the Great Chu Empire is not as rich as the Great Qi Empire, and not as strong as the Great Qin Empire, but it has its own strengths, political communication and harmony. Buddhism has long found that all the empires within the influence of Xiniu Hezhou are governed by Buddhism, and there is no harm in the past, but at this time, the catastrophe of heaven and earth has come, which will undoubtedly make the people in their sphere of influence lose their bloodiness and enterprising spirit. Determination to defend their homeland to the death.
It was Buddhism at this time that decided to reform. Otherwise, once the foreign enemy invades, these forces will definitely be quickly digested by the foreign enemy, and the officials of the Great Chu Empire are all followers of the Legalist Li Si, so they naturally have learned some Legalist essences. The Buddha country of Xiniu Hezhou will definitely grow in strength after their governance.
When the Tang Empire was digesting the fruits of victory and Buddhism was reforming itself, Kunlun Mountain suddenly welcomed two distinguished guests, Pingxin Niangniang and the immeasurable saint Zhang Yuntian. Sanqing Daoist and Nuwa Niangniang did not dare to hold it up at this time, and went to the mountain gate to greet them in person. After the six of them sat down with each other, they all looked at him in order to gain the initiative.
In the end, she still cared about her sister and the Wu clan's peaceful mother, and said straight to the point: "Poor Dao and the immeasurable saint visited this time, and there is a matter to discuss. The two of us want to form an alliance with Taoism and the demon clan and conspire with Buddhism. I don't know if you have any objections. Seeing that the Sanqing Daoist and Nuwa Niangniang were still thinking about it, they persuaded here: "Buddhism and your cause and effect are the best time to understand this time. Wu Cong is the Emperor of Heaven and the People, and he will inevitably unify the Three Realms and unite all forces to resist the invasion of the other world. ”
Zhang Yuntian on the side also spoke: "Ladies and gentlemen, although Yunmen will be the state religion of the Tang Dynasty in the future, it will be based on their ability to preach in the future. You must also know that the matter of the Nuwa Niangniang Demon Clan is that the two Lich Clans have ended so dismally because of the calculations of the two Western Sages. As long as you and I are in alliance, we can just understand the cause and effect between the two clans, so that we will not kill each other as soon as we meet. ”
The reason why Pingxin Niangniang and Zhang Yuntian offered such conditions. In addition to scruples about the strength of the three Qingdao people and Nuwa Niangniang. The most important thing is to be suspicious of the existence of Wuji. At this time, Zhang Yuntian had already known about Wuji's perversion from Pingxin Niangniang's mouth, and couldn't help but be glad that Wuji didn't make him too embarrassed. After the two of them unified Nanchanbu Continent in Datang, they were very hesitant when thinking about Datang's next goal.
With the marriage of Shangqing Daoist and Nuwa Niangniang, it represents that the demon clan has signs of alliance with Taoism. Although the two of them were confident that they would be able to win the battle with Sanqing and Nuwa Niangniang, they could use the power of the Heavenly Dao by relying on the saints. The continuous strength of mana consumed four people, but Wuji's existence was like a basin of cold water, and he had to think twice.
In the end, the two decided to form an alliance with Taoism. As long as the Tang Dynasty can unify Dongsheng Shenzhou and Beiju Luzhou, then it will be able to subdue Buddhism with the general trend of heaven and earth. The Tang Dynasty unified the four continents to obtain immeasurable luck, and Yunmen could naturally obtain immeasurable luck. Once in the future, the Tang Dynasty will attack the heavens again and conquer the heavenly court. Cloud Gate's luck will overwhelm the major sects.
In the end, Sanqing Daoist and Nuwa Niangniang agreed to form an alliance, but demanded that in the future, Taoism and Yunmen would be the state religion of the Tang Dynasty, and the territory of the demon clan would remain unchanged. Pingxin Niangniang naturally had no objections, Zhang Yuntiansi and his own Yunmen in the Tang Empire had already controlled most of the departments, and the missionary ability of Taoism was really questionable, and he could not shake his foundation in the Tang Empire, so he finally agreed to the requirements of Taoism.
Pingxin Niangniang and Zhang Yuntian left Kunlun Mountain satisfied, and then the news of the Han Empire and the Great Song Empire being willing to surrender to the Tang Empire came out of Dongsheng Shenzhou, and a messenger had been sent. After the envoys of the two countries sent to Luoyang, the Tang Emperor Wu Cong passed down a holy decree to crown the emperor of the Han Dynasty as the king of Han and the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty as the king of Song. Respect Taoism and Cloud Gate as the state religion of the Tang Dynasty
Subsequently, the demon clan of Beiju Luzhou also expressed their willingness to form an alliance with the Tang Empire, so that the Tang Dynasty has nominally unified the three major continents, and its luck is unique for a while, and it is not inferior to the Sage Sect. Just when the gods thought that the Tang Dynasty would attack Xiniu Hezhou in one fell swoop with the general trend of heaven and earth, the Tang Empire was dumbfounded and began to recuperate.
Wu Cong knew that although he had the support of the three major continents, but in addition to the Southern Toad Continent under his control, Dongsheng Shenzhou and Beiju Luzhou were only nominally surrendering to him, once he did not have the strength to subdue the two major continents, he was afraid that even if he got the support of Taoism and Yunmen, it would be difficult for his decree to reach the two major continents.
The two saints of Buddhism realized that it was not good when they came to Kunlun Mountain, and immediately issued a decree to strengthen the vigilance of the Buddhist countries in Xiniu Hezhou, with the surrender of the Great Song Dynasty and the Han Dynasty, the alliance of the demon clan, Buddhism was mobilized, and the military action of the Tang Dynasty ended in such a hurry.
But Buddhism is more vigilant, because if the Tang Dynasty attacks Xiniu Hezhou at this time, although Buddhism is defeated, the same Tang Dynasty will also suffer heavy losses, and once the strength of the Tang Dynasty is insufficient, it is difficult to subdue the two continents, and Buddhism can make a comeback even if it is defeated for a while (to be continued......
