At the beginning, Emperor Yang of Sui was kidnapped

Chapter 237 Brother-in-law, I want to go to Mount Shen【Subscription】

After all, Emperor Wu of Liang did even more absurd things.

In the first half of his life, he was a man of great talent and great strategy, and he worked hard to govern, but in the second half of his life...

Obsessed with Buddhism, he spent his whole life promoting Buddhism.

It can be said that in the process of Sinicization of Buddhism, without Xiao Yan, there would be no later Buddhism.

……

Outside the White Horse Temple.

When Xu Mu and Fang Xuanling walked out of the White Horse Temple, they saw a tall veteran in black armor waiting for them.

That's right, this person is Zhang Xutuo.

In order to ensure the smooth success of this power seizure operation, Xu Mu dropped Zhang Xutuo in advance.

Prevent mutiny.

After all, 15 soldiers... Once there is a mutiny, it is enough to turn Luoyang upside down!
"My lord, the last general has surrounded the entire White Horse Temple. Luoyang officials...how should we deal with it?" Zhang Xutuo clasped his fists in his armor and saluted.

According to his idea, these people should all be killed to avoid future troubles!

But Xu Mu waved his hand and said, "Take over the military and political power in Luoyang as soon as possible. As for these people... If you are willing to devote yourself to practicing Buddhism, you can spare your life. If you don't want to practice Buddhism..."

Having said that, Xu Mu stopped talking.

But both Fang Xuanling and Zhang Xutuo understood what he meant.

They all nodded and bowed their heads in praise: "My lord is kind."

Xu Mu gave them a blank look, and added: "In the future, when Wanmin City conquers India...well, that is, when Tianzhu, let them go to Tianzhu to promote Buddhism in China."

As soon as the words fell, Fang Xuanling and Zhang Xutuo couldn't help shivering after listening.

In Wanmin City, they had seen the world map drawn by Cui Ji.

They are very clear that tens of thousands of miles away...

There is a country named Tianzhu.

Buddhism spread to the Central Plains from there.

Now after hundreds of years, after Sinicization, Confucianism and Taoism have been integrated, and it has long been very different from Tianzhu Buddhism.

Even in Buddhism, there is a theory of Dharma dividing Tripitaka.

Countless Buddhist disciples yearn to go to Tianzhu to practice Mahayana Buddhism...

"San Zang learns scriptures, Jian Zhen travels east..."

Xu Mu muttered about two major events in Buddhist history after the Tang Dynasty, the corners of his mouth curled up.

He will be great, and when the time comes, he will put out the signboard of the White Horse Temple, and there will be a wave of cultural counter-export, turning the White Horse Temple into a Buddhist holy place.

Cultural soft power is reflected through these things.

Wherever the iron cavalry of Wanmin City went, it was conquered militarily.

In terms of culture, it depends on the current officials in Luoyang.

Of course, there may be ministers from Chang'an in the future...

……

On this day, the world shook again.

News spread quickly.

After all, Luoyang is the eastern capital, where countless people wait and see.

Wang Shichong was shaved, escaped into Buddhism, and led a group of officials to hand over power, which was soon known by Xu Mu and his colleagues.

Changan.

Li Yuan specially held an extra court meeting for this matter.

"Wang Shichong escaped into the Buddhist sect, and his Dharma name is Yuanji, and all the ministers were ordained to become monks of the bitter class. Dear friends, what do you think of this matter?" Li Yuan looked at the many humerus ministers under his command, with a strange expression on his face.

Obviously, he hasn't recovered from hearing this incredible news.

As soon as the words fell, Pei Ji took a step forward, and said in a deep voice: "I thought... Wang Shichong's tricks are frequent, Luoyang must be in chaos right now, and the 15 army without a leader is just the time for our army to invade."

As soon as he finished his analysis, Wei Zheng stood up and retorted: "Wang Shichong and the officials were ordained, but Sun Ying has not yet been ordained. With this person around, how can Luoyang be chaotic?"

His tone and words were unceremonious.

Immediately, Pei Ji was speechless.

As soon as they heard the word Sun Ying, all the ministers in Chang'an lost their temper instantly.

Li Yuan also frowned upon hearing this.

After he heard the news, he was ecstatic at first, but after hearing that... Sun Ying hadn't been shaved, he suddenly became worried again.

When Wang Shichong was in power, Sun Ying was constrained by Wang Shichong and was unable to exert her full strength.

Now the pig teammate... took the initiative to play himself out.

It is a certainty that Sun Ying will take over the military and political power in Luoyang.

After all, in Luoyang, in terms of prestige, no one is a match for Sun Ying.

And now Li Xiaogong led an army of 20 and was preparing to take back Shangzhou, but fell into a stalemate.

After several days of continuous attack, it seemed that they had encountered an iron wall, but there was no progress at all...

The officials in Chang'an suddenly fell into the haze again.

Only Li Shimin, with flickering eyes, didn't say a word during the court meeting.

After leaving the imperial court, he hurriedly followed Li Yuan into his bedroom, and offered a plan: "Father, Sun Ying is talented, unparalleled in the world, if you want to go to Henan in a short time, you must kill Sun Ying!"

As he spoke, he told the story of sending assassins to Luoyang...

After hearing this, Li Yuan took a deep look at his son, and couldn't help frowning: "How likely is this to succeed?"

Li Shimin took a deep breath, and said solemnly: "I have raised a group of dead men under my command, and they are proficient in assassination techniques. As long as you don't startle the enemy, you will succeed in all likelihood!"

Since the Spring and Autumn and Warring States period, once you can't beat...

Sending assassins to assassinate is a normal operation.

Therefore, Li Yuan also acquiesced to this operation.

Don't you hear that the Qin army came to Yan, Prince Dan sent Jing Ke to assassinate King Qin...

Don't you hear that Wu Zixu recommended Zhuanzhu, and Prince Guang presented the Yuchang sword at the banquet to kill King Liao of Wu...

And this time is the Sui and Tang Dynasties, which pay attention to both civil and military skills, advocating force, and a gentleman with a sword.

Among the folks, martial arts and chivalry prevail, and there are simply not too many dead men.

……

Hebei.

Golden City Palace.

Dou Jiande was also shocked when he heard that Wang Shichong was shaved and gave up his power in Luoyang.

Even in the middle of the night, he hastily ordered to his valet: "Go and ask the military adviser to come and discuss!"

Ling Qian had no choice but to rush to Dou Jiande's bedroom, rubbed his sleepy eyes, and was forced to do business.

Then after reading the latest Luoyang intelligence that Dou Jiande gave him, he was taken aback.

Of course, his surprise was different from that of Dou Jiande.

"My lord...it's too..." He was completely shocked.

Actually used this unimaginable way to subdue the officials in Luoyang, and realized the smooth transfer of military and political power.

"What do you think about this matter, military advisor?" Dou Jiande couldn't help asking seeing that Ling Qian was silent.

After hearing this, he suddenly thought about it.

After all, he is dominant in Hebei, and now he has repelled the Turks. If he can annex Henan again, he will sweep the world!
Ling Qian pondered for a while, pretending to think, and sighed: "This matter is a great blessing, but... Sun Ying has not yet been graduating. For our army, Henan not only has no chance, but it is even more impossible to invade."

According to the master's order, Ling Qian has been building momentum for Sun Ying.

Guide Dou Jiande to give up his plot against Henan.

It's good to be honest and tough with the Turks.

Sure enough, Sun Ying was well-known, Dou Jiande sighed after hearing this, and said: "Li Shimin is right, Sun Ying is not dead, Henan is hard to pacify!"

After some emotion, he also temporarily extinguished the thought of occupying Henan.

Start asking about the next strategy against the Turks.

After obtaining the method to crack the Turkic cavalry, Dou Jiande's troops are now facing the Turks, and they have already won and lost.

Of course, under Ling Qian's command, two cities were recovered one after another.

If you work harder, it won't be long before the whole of Hebei can be taken back!
……

Luoyang.

After learning the news that Wang Shichong had escaped into Buddhism, the happiest thing was Yang Tong.

A few months ago, the real Wang Shichong usurped the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, forcing him to abdicate.

If Xu Mu hadn't forcibly intervened and Li Daitao had stiffened, the 15-year-old Yang Tong would have been gone.

Yang Gong, the small palace that Wang Shichong built specially for Yang Tong in the palace, Yang Tong was a little dazed when he heard the news.

Then he repeatedly urged the palace people to invite his brother-in-law.

After half a day.

After dealing with various matters, Sun Ying entered Yang Palace with her lord's entrustment.

"I hope Yang Tong won't ask for the restoration of the throne..." Along the way, Sun Ying had mixed feelings.

The lord entered Luoyang City and is taking over the military and political power of Luoyang.

Naturally, Yang Tong would not be allowed to rush out suddenly to snatch the fruit.

For her brother-in-law, Sun Ying was afraid that he would suddenly say that he wanted to be emperor.

Then he...

We can only keep him under house arrest here.

However, as soon as he saw Yang Tong, Yang Tong grabbed him by the sleeve. The 15-year-old Yang Tong looked at him expectantly, "Brother-in-law, what you promised me last time... Do you still count?"

Sun Ying was stunned.

When did he promise Yang Tong something?
Seeing that he couldn't remember, Yang Tong couldn't wait to remind him: "It's about taking me to the sacred mountain!"

During this period of time, although Yang Tong was under house arrest in the Yang Palace,... occasionally he could still learn about some external wars from the palace population.

Every time he heard how much Sun Ying's generals had done, he was extremely proud.

gradually……

He has completely become Sun Ying's little fan.

This is his brother-in-law!

Although they are not close relatives, this level of relationship is here...

"Brother-in-law, as you said, take me to Shenshan if you have the chance, and now Wang Shichong has escaped into Buddhism..." Yang Tong held his head up, his small eyes full of anticipation.

Only then did Sun Ying remember what he had said to Yang Tong before.

Isn't the holy mountain the city of Wanmin?

He was so scared that he thought Yang Tong still wanted to be emperor.

"I've figured it out, I must enter the sacred mountain, learn the peerless art of war and knowledge, and then come out to restore our great Sui rivers and mountains!" 15-year-old Yang Tong clenched his fists, as if he had made a major decision.

"Brother-in-law, when you go back to Shenshan, you must take me with you..."

Yang Tong grabbed Sun Ying's sleeve, his face full of apprehension and hope.

Sun Ying came over slowly, couldn't help stroking his hair, and agreed: "This matter is simple, next time I go back to Wan... to Shenshan, I will call you to come with me."

The art of war can be learned at the Whampoa Military Academy.

Knowledge can be learned in colleges.

Just in the university hall, Yang Tong can still see Lu Chu who is "ranked in the fairy class"...

Qigui in Luoyang back then, Yang Tong's mentor, was killed by "Li Mi", and his soul flew to Shenshan.

Such an explanation makes perfect sense.
