All Heavens: Start by guarding the light at night

Chapter 118 Buddha came from the west and the war started

Under the gradually setting sun, the mountain peaks appear taller, majestic, and steady; the white clouds appear more tranquil, dense, and pure. The setting sun slowly merges with the mountains, sky, and clouds, turning into a black and blue print. As the light fades.

The blood-red sunset gradually faded, disappearing into the night from far to near.

The north wind howled outside the window, and the heat was rising inside the house.

After three days of healing, Ning Que was almost fully recovered.

The Xiling Allied Forces and the Zuozhang Royal Court fought dozens of times and achieved good results.

The successive victories made the people of the Xiling Allied Forces eager to try.

Ning Que, as a secret guard, was the first to receive a message.

The capital of Zuozhang Royal Court was exposed, and the Chanyu was in the city.

The Xiling coalition forces decided to send a powerful man to behead the Shanyu.

And he had already taken action three days ago.

Lu Yaoguang, the priest of Little Guangming Temple, led more than 20 powerful people in the realm of knowing fate deep into the grassland.

According to intelligence, because of this incident, there was a fierce quarrel within Xiling.

Why not attack directly with the army?

Instead, it is very unusual to carry out some kind of beheading operation and transfer so many powerful people who know their fate.

Ning Que has lived in Weicheng on the border all year round and has some understanding of the barbarians on the grassland.

These barbarians are definitely not as stupid as they look.

If you underestimate them, you will definitely suffer a big loss.

The Chanyu on the grassland will reveal his position, which is a very big doubt in itself.

Xiling, the reason for determining this matter.

There must be an undercover agent in Zuozhang Royal Court, and his status is not low.

In Ning Que's memory, there was never a capital in the past grassland.

The place where Shan Yu lives is never fixed.

Suddenly a certain capital appeared, and so many Xiling masters were transferred.

Once a war breaks out, the deterrence of the coalition forces will be much weaker.

The war is about to begin.

Xiling Alliance Army, deep in the camp, in a huge tent, there are many high-level officials of Xiling.

There was a snap, the sound of the wine glass breaking.

The ruling priest stretched out his hand to strangle a young general's neck with an angry look on his face.

"Are you all pigs? A team of tens of thousands of deserters crossed the Minshan Mountains, and you just discovered it now?"

"Woooooo."

The general whose neck was strangled could not breathe and could only whimper in pain.

A general stood up and explained:

"Great Priest, please calm down. This matter is not our fault. The elder guarding that section of the defense line is from Tianyu Academy. Now he has defected."

"The elders of the Tianman Court have defected. Are you kidding me?"

The High Priest of Judgment frowned. When it came to the issue of the two temples, this matter was not so simple to deal with.

The Judgment Priest leads the entire Judgment Temple.

If someone from the Judgment Temple makes a mistake, they can just drag him out and behead him.

However, the elders of Tianmangyuan made a mistake and escaped privately.

There is no evidence at all.

Before the war started, internal conflicts broke out.

"Who is from Tianyu Academy?"

"This is Liu Changfeng, Elder Liu."

Hearing this name, the Judgment Priest was shocked. All the elders of the Tianman Court may defect, but Elder Liu is the only one who cannot defect. His loyalty to the Taoist sect can be learned from heaven and earth.

Many years ago, Master went to Taoshan to kill him. Liu Changfeng was only in the early stage of knowing his fate at that time. He stood guard in front of the Tianman Courtyard without fear of death, and even risked his life to attack Master.

Perhaps it was Haotian's blessing that the master attacked the master with all his strength at that time, without taking care of him, a little ant, and allowed him to survive successfully.

Unfortunately, his entire right arm was burned by the vitality of heaven and earth, and his meridians were disrupted.

The entire arm is proof of his loyalty to Haotian.

Letting go of the general in his hands, the High Priest of Judgment turned around and glared at the general who reported the news to him.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Elder Liu is a close confidant of the dean of Tianyu Academy. How could he defect privately?"

Liu Wu bowed and saluted the High Priest of Judgment, once again confirming the authenticity of the news.

"Great Priest, I really am not talking nonsense. Elder Liu is no longer in the military camp at this time."

"Elder Liu is missing, please send someone to find him quickly."

"Yes, High Priest."

Liu Changfeng's disappearance undoubtedly made this matter more complicated.

The High Priest of Judgment sat down with one hand on his forehead. He was extremely angry and asked again:

"Where are the ten thousand desolate people who entered Minshan Mountain now?"

"Reporting to the Great Priest, these deserters have set up a defense line based on the dangerous terrain of Minshan Mountain."

"Deploy the defense line. They really plan to stay in Minshan permanently. They are really arrogant. What about the Tang people? Do they not care about this matter?"

"General Xiahou said, we let these deserters in and let us deal with them ourselves."

The High Priest of Judgment looked outside the camp with a cold look in his eyes.

"Xiahou dared to disobey the order of the temple. He was really impatient. He really thought that by entering the Hall of Light, he would be able to escape the sanction of the temple. He was simply delusional."

"Great Priest, do we need to send someone to contact Xiahou again?"

"Forget it, a mere 2 desolate people won't make things difficult for us. Haven't the cavalry guards never taken action? Let General Zuotang lead [-] people and cooperate with the desolate cavalry to kill all these desolate people. .”

"Yes."

As a warrant was conveyed, more than 2 coalition troops set off overnight toward the Minshan area.

In this group of coalition troops, there were three hundred cavalrymen, each wearing armor with exquisite patterns. Each cavalryman held his head high, showing his pride.

Among the cavalry, there were three red-robed priests mixed in. Even on Taoshan, the status of these three people was not low.

Cheng Lixue, the priest of Tianyu Academy, was among the three.

Next to the three of them, there was a tall, middle-aged man wearing exquisite armor. He looked like a movable metal fortress. He was Luo Kedi, the commander of the divine guards of Xiling Temple.

"Priest Cheng, what do you think about Liu Changfeng's defection?"

Cheng Lixue squinted her eyes slightly and responded somewhat unkindly:

"Commander Luo, is it too much to label this matter as defection before it is officially confirmed? It may not be that Elder Liu was assassinated."

"Priest Cheng, I know that you are highly valued by the Great Priest Tianyu. Even you must be reasonable. Even if Liu Changfeng doesn't watch the 5000-man defense line personally, it is impossible for so many deserters to cross the defense line. , there is only one possibility, that is, Liu Changfeng personally ordered to give up a passage. "

"Commander Luo, maybe someone is falsely passing on military orders."

"Priest Cheng, do you think you can mobilize an army of thousands of people without the general's tiger talisman by falsely passing military orders? To ensure that tens of thousands of deserters pass through Minshan, this line of defense will be unmanned for at least half a day. For such a long time, Liu Chang It’s impossible for the wind not to know.”

"Commander Luo, don't forget Elder Liu's loyalty to the temple."

"Who knows whether he will seek glory from the seller for profit. I heard that Elder Liu is very close to Guangming Palace."

"Commander Luo, the Guangming Temple is still under the banner of the temple. Even Zhi Shou Guan admits the existence of the Guangming Palace. Do you think the Guangming Palace will join the Huangren?"

The two of them were fighting each other, but the other two red-robed priests never spoke.

In the early morning of the second day, the team of Luo Kedi, Cheng Lixue and others were approaching Minshan.

Very close to the deserted people's defense line.

In addition to a small number of cultivators in the Buhuo realm, the 300-man cavalry guard also has many great practitioners in the Dongxuan realm.

There are also priests, elders, etc., a total of five powerful people in the realm of knowing fate.

Even with the power of a practitioner alone, it would be difficult to deal with these ten thousand people.

Not to mention there are still [-] coalition troops.

The cavalry has arrived at the front line. The army's movement is a little slow and it will take another day to arrive.

However, as soon as the coalition forces took action, the Zuozhang Royal Court received the news on the grassland.

The decisive battle begins.

Countless scouts were sent out to explore the grassland border.

When the coalition forces attacked the Minshan defense line, it was also the time when both the prairie barbarians and the deserters came to Yanbei.

A large number of barbarian masters gathered in the capital of Zuozhang Royal Court.

Just wait for the strong men from Xiling to break in and take it down in one fell swoop.

With a grassland army of 40, Xiling would never have imagined that Zuozhang Royal Court would have such a strong force.

According to the news received by Xiling, the number of soldiers and horses was reduced four times to only one hundred thousand.

Among them, 30 troops were stationed in batches at the rear of the grassland. Only when the real decisive battle was approaching did these troops begin to be moved forward.

The bad news was that Song Zuoyun, the military advisor of Zuozhang Wangting, fought the first battle.

On the border, there are hundreds of thousands of deserters in the military camp.

Song Zuoyun, Chanyu, and the Eleven Elders of Huangren were sitting around a tent.

The eleventh elder dog hugged his body and praised Song Zuoyun:

"Commander Song, you are really clever and clever. You deceived more than 20 people who knew the destiny to go deep into the grassland, and then let the cavalry from Xiling go to the Minshan area. You are simply a god."

Song Zuoyun was neither arrogant nor impetuous. He cupped his fists and said modestly:
"Haha, it's just a small trick. If we really want to win this war, we have to rely on Shan Yu and the Eleventh Elder."

At this time, Shan Yu also laughed and relaxed his mind. After a bowl of wine, his face turned red and all the kingly demeanor was forgotten. He was very lucky to get such a military advisor. "Military advisors don't have to be modest. Xiling has so many practitioners that they don't take us seriously. If it weren't for the strategist's plan, even if our 40-strong army went into battle together, we would probably have a lot of trouble if we wanted to capture the entire Yan Kingdom. .”

Elder Eleven straightened his rickety body, raised the wooden foot in his hand, and had a smile on his face.

"Hahaha, Shan Yu and the military advisor are also relieved. All the countries in the south thought that I, Old Eleven, had a falling out with the Great Elder and wanted to set up an independent branch. However, they didn't expect that everything I did today was authorized by the Great Elder. I The 36 elders of the Demon Sect will also gather in Yanbei, and even if Xiong Chumo, the leader of Xiling, comes in person, we will tell him to never come back."

Shan Yu was overjoyed and clapped his hands in applause. The 36 elders of the Demon Sect were the 36 strong men who knew their destiny.

The Demon Sect's skills have reached the realm of knowing one's fate, and their strength is not even a bit stronger than that of ordinary practitioners.

At this time, a young man wearing animal skin walked in from outside the camp.

The demon sect walks around the world, Tang Dynasty.

Tang looked anxious, took out a warrant and said:
"The Great Elder has ordered us to launch a general attack immediately."

"what?"

The three people in the camp were shocked. It was too sudden.

The situation is great. As long as we wait one more day, when the time comes to attack Yanbei, there will be a steady stream of reinforcements coming from the rear.

If we attack immediately, reinforcements will have to wait at least two days before effective support can be formed.

The masters of the Demon Sect will also have to wait two days before they can arrive.

Without the strong men of the Demon Sect plundering the formation and attacking the city, there would be many more casualties.

"what happened?"

"There is a Buddha who came from the west."

Tang's answer shocked the people in the camp even more. What kind of Buddha can change the situation of the war?Let the war be brought forward as a last resort and disrupt the original layout.

"Is it the first lecturer?" Elder Eleven asked doubtfully.

"Yes."

The Buddha on earth, the leader of sermons, this great man left the moon wheel and went straight to the grassland. Is he crazy?
"What on earth happened that could alarm the chief lecturer?"

"Book of Heaven, Volume of Mingzi."

"Book of Heaven!" Elder Eleven sat up in shock, his eyes widening.

"Yes, the Heavenly Oracle of Xiling predicted that the Book of Heaven's Mingzi Scroll would appear in the wasteland."

"Could it be that our Demon Sect Holy Land and the Demon Sect Mountain Gate are going to be reopened?"

"It should be like this. If there is a Heavenly Book on the grassland, then this Heavenly Book will definitely appear at the Demon Sect Mountain Gate."

"The birth of Demon Sect Mountain Gate is an opportunity for me, Huangren!"

The conversation between Elder Eleven and Tang shocked Shan Yu and Song Zuoyun.

Of course they know what the Book of Heaven represents.

In the past, the Demon Sect relied on the Mingzi Scroll of the Heavenly Book to establish an unknowable place, which has been passed down for thousands of years.

So far, the Demon Sect's mountain gate has been destroyed and its inheritance has been cut off, but many powerful people in the realm of knowing fate can still be found.

Even if Xiling Temple wants to hunt down the fate-knowing strong man of the Demon Sect, it is not that easy.

Along the border, smoke of wolf smoke rose.

Tens of thousands of prairie cavalry appeared from the horizon and came to the city in an instant.

Mochiyuan is both lucky and unfortunate.

When they discovered these prairie cavalry, they had already cut off their retreat route.

The people from Mochiyuan who came to the grassland were not very strong. Because they had no experience, they seemed to be a little out of place with the coalition forces in Xiling.

So I chose a camp that was a little further away. The reason why I chose this place was because it was surrounded by woods and was secluded enough.

By sending out scouts, you can convey the desired information back at any time.

Another important point is that the forest is close to water sources and hot springs.

A group of disciples surrounded Mo Shanshan, all with sad faces.

Ruohua was even more anxious and about to cry.

"I say you're a crybaby, but you still don't admit it." Song Buqu whispered.

Ruohua happened to hear Song Buqu's voice and forced herself to calm down:

"I, I didn't cry."

"I'm not crying, and I don't know who had red eyes just now."

"Humph, you bastard, you care about me, can't you if I have sand in my eyes?"

Ruohua turned her head, seeming a little angry and shrugging her shoulders.

The words "disciple" made Song Buqu blush with embarrassment and said nothing more.

Zhi Zhihua's delicate face was full of sadness, and she didn't hear the conversation between the two at all.

Mo Shanshan stood in the crowd wearing a white dress, her skin was as radiant as snow, her eyes were like a pool of clear water, her gaze moved among the crowd.

The war came so fast, even she, as one of the Three Idiots in the World, didn't know what to do next.

Tens of thousands of prairie cavalry are powerful.

There are less than 3000 people in Mochiyuan and they are inexperienced. Once they encounter these people, there will definitely be heavy casualties.

Everyone is waiting for Mo Shanshan's order.

Wuming, who was dressed in black robes, stood outside the crowd without saying a word, looking out of the woods, with no trace of nervousness on his face.

Mo Shanshan pushed Zhu Zhihua beside him and motioned for her to ask the unknown priest.

Zhui Zhihua looked a little nervous, slowly walked out of the crowd and walked towards Wuming.

Song Buqu couldn't help but said:

"Although Wuming has entered the realm of knowing fate, he doesn't understand things like fighting. It's useless to ask him."

"Do you have a solution?"

Mo Shanshan's long eyelashes trembled slightly, his fair and flawless skin revealed a faint pink color, and his thin lips were as delicate as rose petals, attracting people's feelings of love.

"I don't know either."

Song Buqu blushed and looked a little embarrassed. He really wanted to say that he understood, but the situation was urgent now and he couldn't just talk nonsense.

"Bah, I thought you had something to do."

A pair of big dark eyes showed disappointment. Tmall Girl admired Song Buquing very much, especially after a period of contact with him. Song Buququ often boasted. In Tmall Girl's eyes, he was almost omnipotent, knowing everything and knowing everything.

In this moment of crisis, the idol's filter collapsed, and Tmall Girl seemed to have been deceived.

"Just because you don't understand doesn't mean there's nothing you can do." Looking at the disappointed little girl, Song Buqu suddenly felt unhappy and puffed up his chest instantly.

"any solution?"

Song Buqu had also read military books, but he had only a limited understanding of how to use troops, so he made random nonsense:
"The way is to do the opposite and continue to go deeper into the grassland."

Tmall Girl didn't understand anything after hearing this method, but she still felt it was outrageous.

"Going deep into the grassland? What are you talking about? We can't go back now. If we go deeper into the grassland, what should we do if we encounter barbarians?"

"Ahem, don't you understand this? When the barbarians attack the city, they will inevitably use all their troops, and the rear will definitely be empty. If we go back, we will definitely be discovered by the barbarian scouts, but if we continue to go deep into the grassland, we will also You may not be able to meet barbarian scouts."

The way back has been cut off. It is impossible for Mochiyuan's disciples to return. Under attack from both front and rear, the possibility of the entire army being annihilated is too great.

A team of 3000 people cannot be discovered, and it is only temporary.

Maybe they were barbarians who didn't want to alarm them at all.

Going deep into the grassland seems outrageous, but both barbarians and barbarians are attacking Yanbei. It may be an opportunity for them to go deep into the grassland at this time.

Sure enough, Wuming did not disappoint Song Buqu, and Zhuan Zhihua's inquiries were fruitless.

The seemingly outrageous proposal made by Song Buqu was actually about to be implemented.

The vanguard of the barbarians is cavalry, so it is normal that they cannot enter the woods to search.

As for the next infantry, if they don't go north, they will definitely be discovered by the scouts who come to search.

"Okay, let's go north." Mo Shanshan's eyes showed determination.

The barbarian cavalry is too strong. With the same 3000 men, Mochiyuan will definitely fail.

In fact, there are always people paying attention to this place in the grassland.

The military advisor of Zuozhang Wangting was named Song.

Song Buqu also had the surname Song.

Any team in the Central Plains will be in danger when entering the grassland, but as long as Song Buqu's team is there, there will never be any threat.

As for how to support Yanbei, these are not within the scope of Song Buqu's consideration.

The scope of this war is too great. Without the overwhelming advantage as imagined, Mo Shanshan cannot lead everyone to death.

At the beginning, the mentality of the Central Plains countries was that if the coalition forces were in place, the Zuozhang Royal Court would surrender. How many desolate people could there be in the Zuozhang Royal Court?
Just kill them all and that's it.

But in fact, not only did Zuozhang Royal Court not surrender, but they even gathered a hundred thousand troops to confront the coalition forces.

If the Central Plains countries knew that there were still 30 reinforcements hidden behind Zuozhang Wangting, with the support of the entire Demon Sect behind them, it would be impossible for those big figures in the Xiling Temple to sit firmly on the Diaoyutai.

The leader, Xiong Chumo, will definitely come to the battlefield in person, and it is impossible for each country to send only a small number of troops.

Xiling did find something amiss, but their follow-up support was still on the way.

Mochiyuan's team advanced towards the north at a slow pace, and scouts were constantly sent out.

Continuing north along this river is Daming Lake.

Wuming has other tasks, but he has always followed the team in Mochiyuan because their destinations are surprisingly similar.

Ye Hongyu and Wang Jinglue also received the news and rushed to Daming Lake.

As for why it is Daming Lake?Only the current Great Priest of Light knows.

Daming Lake is close to the intersection of Minshan Mountain and Tianqi Mountain on the grassland. This is the end point of many layouts.
