On either side of him were a group of unruly subordinates, casting glances at him with a mixture of curiosity and disdain.
Ivia disappeared in an instant.
"Wait a minute, do it!"
The voice of the red-hearted monk sounded anxiously. Ivia had already crushed a head. This person was obviously blessed by gods and Buddhas.
Everyone in the room drew their swords in an instant, and there was a clanging sound.
"Stop!" Chai Anmin's slightly angry voice sounded at the same time.
Then he began to explain: "Although Xuanjia is a disciple of Buddha, he has already abandoned darkness and joined the light!"
Ivia considered this possibility before taking action.
"I guessed it!" Ivia said with a smile.
Hearing this, Chai Anmin, who had remained calm, opened his eyes as wide as he could. For the first time, he lost his composure in front of Ivy. He put his hand on the hilt of the sword and trembled with anger.
"I just want to tell you that even gods and Buddhas can do such things." Ivia said, pinching the unlucky guy's head again, and in the surprised eyes of many generals, she put the soul of the dead man back.
"Don't let me kill all the gods and Buddhas and leave, and then you secretly believe in them and create them again for this kind of thing!"
The resurrected Xuanjia was still in a daze, not knowing what was going on.
As for the others, they felt guilty under Ivia's mocking gazes.
Only Chai Anmin's eyes were like fire, and he answered firmly:
"I don't know what will happen in the future, but as long as I live, I will not allow the gods and Buddhas to be resurrected!"
Ivia believed this statement. This ambitious man's desire for absolute power outweighed his fear of death, and he would not allow anyone to be above him.
Including Avia.
"Then you guys play, I'm leaving."
Ivia looked around again, the disdainful look had disappeared, replaced by a look of fear.
Mingzhu is now Ivia's personal maid, responsible for taking care of Ivia and satisfying her desires. She stands upstairs with Ivia and watches Chai Anmin's army go off.
In terms of combat effectiveness, Chai Anmin's army is not as good as Zhang Tuo's Golden Armor Army, but except for the subordinates led by Xuan Jia, the rest of the soldiers are very clean and have no faith at all.
Therefore, each of them is fearless.
If Sheng Ge's army was a mob, Chai Anmin's army was like a pack of wolves. Even among the armies that Ivia saw while clearing out the gods and Buddhas, they were ranked first.
"How is Mr. Chai's military formation?" Monk Chixin did not follow the army, but came to Ivia and asked.
"If we exclude the power of gods and Buddhas, he should be the best in the world." Ivia said based on the facts. The position of the leader has been determined.
"Good, good!" Monk Chixin put his hands together, as if a worry had been put to rest.
"My master is invincible!" Mingzhu also said happily.
"I can't beat Zhang Tuo." Aivia deliberately added the finishing blow.
"Zhang Tuo's Golden Armor Army has been built up over several generations during the Qian Dynasty. Furthermore, General Zhang Tuo has fought countless battles and is unstoppable. However, war is raging everywhere, and it's difficult to manage both ends. Mr. Chai will do his best to avoid their attack."
Monk Chixin explained to Ivia that compared to the corrupt Qian Dynasty, he personally preferred Chai Anmin, who would definitely kill him in the end. He was afraid that Ivia would trip up Chai Anmin because of her personal preference, so he was speaking up for Chai Anmin.
"Bitch!" Ivia gave the same evaluation to Monk Chixin and Mingzhu in a concise and concise manner. She stopped watching the army's operations and turned back to her room.
Mingzhu chuckled. She found it very funny that the master and she were scolded together.
As Monk Chixin said, Chai Anmin, who had just set out, did not think like other rebels about capturing big cities or confronting the invincible Zhang Tuo army to become famous. Instead, he started from his hometown in a very low-key manner and nibbled away at the fertile land bit by bit.
During this period, he was careful not to let Avia clear out all the temples of gods and Buddhas in his territory, and he specially left many famous temples in non-military areas.
However, the demons encountered along the way were wiped out by the army without Avia having to take any action.
Ivia watched once how they eliminated the demons.
First, the Qing people escorted the people from the places where demons and ghosts were lurking, gathered them together, took them away from their old places and then managed them centrally. Anyone who showed signs of being possessed by demons was killed on the spot, and even their own soldiers were ruthlessly tempted.
Then they set fire to drive them away. Chai Anmin’s army had a kind of oil that could burn vigorously even in heavy rain.
Ivia has checked this oil and found it is a specialty of this world and can be used by gods and Buddhas alike.
This seemingly ordinary oil can even cause real damage to the soul body, which is very overbearing.
The third step after the rocket rain is for the army to surround and bury the body with earth.
Chai Anmin didn't even think about letting the army fight against the demons.
Wherever his army passed, only small hills shaped like tombs were left behind, and each hill represented a demon that had been pacified.
With such a cautious approach to doing things, he deserves to win the world.
---
The war lasted for three months. After being screened by Zhang Tuo's army, the various rebel forces raised their own flags and completely divided the land.
Apart from the capital and Zhang Tuo's army that attacked everywhere, the Qian Dynasty existed in name only.
In the vast territory of the Qian Dynasty, there are now only four major forces left.
Ranked first is the Buddhist Army, whose leader is named Kong Xuan. They surrounded the capital of the Qian Dynasty and their sphere of influence is right in the center of the Qian Dynasty's territory.
The second is Bai Tingyuan in the southwest. Aivia visited him a few times and found that this force was not supported by gods or Buddhas, but there were few human beings from top to bottom.
The third is Chai Anmin, who occupied Jiangnan. His slogan is still the same trick of establishing a Buddhist kingdom on earth.
Finally, there is Li Shixin in the north, whose territory is vast but the population is sparse. It is more like an alliance of horse bandits than the leader of a separatist force.
When the forces in the world were divided, only Li Shixin was being chased and attacked by Zhang Tuo's army.
The reason is simple. Other separatist forces would be eliminated by Zhang Tuo's army once they emerged, and then they would make a comeback. For example, Kong Xuan, the leader of the Buddhist Army, was said to have even had his head chopped off, and then he came back to life.
Bai Tingyuan's brother was also killed by Zhang Tuo, and Chai Anmin was chased and fled to the sea, abandoning his armor and weapons. It seemed that his power had collapsed for a while, and then Zhang Tuo's army turned its guns on him.
Only Li Shixin, who was born a horse thief, was extremely mobile. Since he raised the flag of rebellion, his main force has never been caught by Zhang Tuo's army. On the vast northern grassland, Li Shixin has been flying a kite.
The stubborn Zhang Tuo and his subordinates also kept biting him.
Chapter 313: Falling into a Tiger's Pits
What Zhang Tuo, who was obsessed with chasing Li Shixin, didn't know was that behind him, the other two major forces, Chai Anmin, had formed an alliance with the Buddhist disciple Kong Xuan.
It goes without saying that Kong Xuan is the tool chosen by the gods and Buddhas to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new. Chai Anmin is so proud that he would even want to kill a maid if she saw him bowing to Ivia. He is such a rebellious person that he would not let go of being chased and killed.
The two forces had the same goal, and both chose to prioritize killing Zhang Tuo, the last backbone of the old dynasty.
Since the establishment of the Buddha's Army, Ivia's free time has finally arrived. Perhaps realizing that they are unstoppable to Ivia's elusiveness, the gods and Buddhas gathered all their remaining forces under the Buddha's Army.
Even with the reputation of the Red-hearted Monk, Chai Anmin could only recruit those who pretended to believe in him but were actually just trying to save their lives, which was exactly what Chai Anmin wanted.
When the abbot of Mingyin Temple brought the authentic monks to say goodbye to Chai Anmin, Chai Anmin's acting skills were unleashed and he cried with tears, but he was actually very happy in his heart.
Once the power of gods and Buddhas was gone, Ivia no longer needed to restrain herself and could walk around and play in a grand manner.
It has to be said that apart from the intermittent heavy rain that made it inconvenient for Ivia to travel, Qiantang, which was still prosperous in the troubled times, gave Ivia a good experience.
Especially when a local named Mingzhu is the tour guide.
Chai Anmin's career was going smoothly, but it had not actually benefited Mingzhu and other servants. However, judging from the world that Ivia had seen during her several trips out to clean up the gods and demons, Mingzhu was indeed living a comfortable life.
Although Chai Anmin had a fickle personality, he punished severely and would take people's lives at will.
However, whether it was Mingzhu or other servants in Chai Anmin's mansion, they all had a stable meal, and Chai Anmin did not let them join the army to fight.
Even high-ranking servants like Mingzhu could save a lot of private money.
From Ivia's perspective, Mingzhu was certainly a slave with no control over her own destiny. In Ivia's own Anor Londo, there was no one like Mingzhu.
There was no such thing before, and there is no such thing now. The rat even had the courage to steal Ivia's clothes before.
Mingzhu herself could not understand why Ivia disliked Chai Anmin. In Mingzhu's eyes, her master was the best man in the world, and his ambition was unparalleled in the universe.
"My Lord, have you never been to other places?" Mingzhu, wearing a straw raincoat, asked while rowing the boat for Ivia in the rain.
Ivyya did not deny that she did not like Chai Anmin, nor did she explain that the problem was not the comparison.
There are conflicts between the gods and Buddhas and Mingzhu, who need to suppress their faith, persecute them, and make them miserable.
But Chai Anmin doesn't need that. If this were an ordinary world, Ivia wouldn't look down on Chai Anmin because of the treatment Mingzhu and the others received. That would be really good.
But this is a ninth-order world, and Chai Anmin has already raised the banner of rebellion and confirmed his intention to eliminate the gods and Buddhas, yet there are still so many slaves and people starving to death. It is simply unreasonable.
Chai Anmin himself knew that Ivia was unhappy, but since he didn't get any results from his attempts, he stopped asking and just tried not to appear in front of Ivia. He asked Mingzhu to convey all the relevant news.
Now Chai Anmin has gathered a large army and is waiting at the edge of Li Shixin's sphere of influence. The Buddhist army has also sent a large army to wait on the other side of the grassland.
There were more than just the two of them who were besieging Zhang Tuo's army. After receiving the contact, Li Shixin, who was being chased terribly, hit it off with both sides and agreed to act as bait to lure Zhang Tuo's army over.
However, which direction they are lured to depends on the speed of Zhang Tuo's pursuit.
As for the proposal of the three armies to join forces to encircle and suppress Zhang Tuo, the leaders of the three forces tacitly rejected it.
I don’t know if it’s because too much power from gods and Buddhas has been cleared away, but the rain has become much less recently. However, for Chai Anmin, who set up camp on the edge of the grassland, the muddy road is still not suitable for large-scale marches.
Therefore, Chai Anmin only brought 5,000 elite soldiers this time, and the detection spells and armored horses were spread out far away, just waiting for Zhang Tuo's army to take the bait.
Chai Anmin sat quietly in the military camp, appearing calm on the surface, but he was actually panicking inside but he didn't show it.
The main reason was that last time he led an army of 200,000, but was killed in the face of Zhang Tuo's army in just two encounters, and he himself was almost killed by Zhang Tuo's sword.
Although these 5,000 men are elite, none of them have confidence.
"Report! Master Chixin has sent a letter saying that the Buddhist army is approaching our unit and we suspect we have spotted the enemy!"
The messenger's voice sounded outside the tent.
"Go and find out how many troops the Buddhist army has brought!" Chai Anmin did not act rashly. He was suspicious by nature and did not completely believe the information given by Monk Chixin.
It wasn't long before the exploration, with a pointed direction, quickly yielded results.
As a Buddhist who was also psychologically traumatized by Zhang Tuo, this time, unlike Chai Anmin, he chose to send out a large army. He brought more than a dozen heavy chariots just to target the Golden Armor Army. The heavy chariots moving slowly in the rain were like moving mountains.
The soldiers behind the chariots were all bald and had golden light on their bodies. The gods and Buddhas could not afford to add to the pressure.
After hearing these descriptions, Chai Anmin put aside his worries about being surrounded. Such a heavily armed army could not catch him.
"Report! There's smoke coming from the northwest!"
This news made Chai Anmin unable to sit still, and he immediately guessed what had happened.
