Chapter 856 Cutting Xu (12000 Supplements)

Dasong is gone, no longer unorthodox.

The south is naturally changed to Yuan, which was drafted by the prime minister himself, and it is the first year of Kaiping!

Xuzhou.

a temple.

"I've seen Master False Faith!"

The great Confucian Zhang Haoran clasped his palms together and greeted an old monk.

There is also a Taoist next to him, making tea under a plum blossom, quite enjoying himself.

"Amitabha... the benefactor went to the south to lobby, and the old monk chanted sutras and prayed for the benefactor day and night. Fortunately, Brahma God blessed him and returned safely!"

Master Xuxin's face seemed to be shining with compassion, with a look of compassion, two lines of tears suddenly flowed down.

"Monk, why are you crying?"

The Taoist next to him suddenly laughed.

"Layman Plum Blossom, this old man is not crying for one family name, but for the world... The King of Liang and Layman Xu Ling insist on going their own way, why should the people of the world suffer? The chaos will continue for many years, and the people will be devastated... Amitabha..."

Layman Meihua also looked dignified: "Daliang used the public examination to replace the imperial examination, and did not read the Four Books and Five Classics. This is the foundation of digging the famous religion... He also introduced a business tax. Hehe, you and I both know, how can ordinary people have the capital to do business? Isn't it mostly landlords? ...Finally, the religious tax is even more unbelievable. Historically, only the ruler of the country has donated to Buddhism and Taoism. How can I collect taxes in reverse? The monks and Taoists are not given the right to be tax-free... This is deliberately suppressing the Vatican and Taoism!"

The King of Liang started to levy a religious tax, which has already been tested in the south, and it is said that it has aroused a lot of resistance.

But Prime Minister Xu Lingzi didn't make any concessions on this point, and directly took back the privileges of temples and Taoist temples, and would cut down mountains and destroy temples if he didn't comply.

The names of the Supreme Dao Bing and the Supreme Divine Thunder can already stop children from crying at night in the southern religious circles!

"Originally, when Dasong was destroyed and Daliang inherited the destiny, it was the general trend... But it depends on man's will... Liang Wang and Xu Lingzi acted in such a perverse way, the ownership of the nine tripods in the world is still uncertain!"

Zhang Haoran said.

"Oh? The plan will be released?" Layman Plum Blossom asked with a smile.

"Although the south is fixed now, there are still a few dragons in the north, such as King Kang of the Song Dynasty..." Zhang Haoran said: "When the old man left, he had received news that after the spring, Xu Lingzi will lead an army to attack Xuzhou!"

"The King of Liang really doesn't want to be peaceful, has he already started preparing for the Northern Expedition?" Layman Meihua muttered to himself.

"Xu Lingzi still looks down on me too much. If he accepts advice humbly, I will eat the pot of milk naturally to meet the king... But at this time, it is time for Xu Lingzi to see my literati's strength .”

Zhang Haoran said indifferently: "Although Xuzhou is small, there are six prefectures. If one city is attacked, how many people will die?"

Ancient city defense was far simpler than siege, and the requirements for defenders were also lower.

As long as the will to resist is strong enough, it can definitely bring huge damage to the siege party!

The Zhang family is a thousand-year-old family. Although it looks like a family of poems and books, in fact, the relationship in the officialdom is intricate. Xuzhou is its base camp, and its influence is deep-rooted in all aspects.

"Amitabha... I don't want to see the demon king gain power, so I can call on good believers and monks to help..."

Master Xu Xin clasped his hands together.

"In this case, we can also join..." Taoist Plum Blossom folded a plum, and suddenly smiled: "If the city is defended, how many days and soldiers will be consumed by King Liang? It will take four or five years, and hundreds of thousands of people will die. , the dragon spirit will be broken... When the north is unified, the chances of the south will be small. Since ancient times, it has been easy to conquer the south with the north, and difficult to conquer the north with the south!"

"Our three teachings work together to make Liang Long angry, and he has done it himself!"

...

The spring breeze is blowing, and the river is surging.

Bailongdu.

A navy slowly approached the shore, and groups of soldiers drove down.

Xiaoyu also jumped out of the boat and paddled the water with her paws, as if she wanted to catch fish.

"Prime Minister, we have entered the territory of Xuzhou, which is now considered to be the boundary of Shuanghua Mansion. The front is Hemen County... The prefect of Shuanghua already knew about our arrival. It is said that there was a banquet, and he said that he would surrender. Then he suddenly changed his face and killed those who wanted to surrender. , This is to resolutely resist to the end."

When Tang Xun heard the whistleblower's report, his face was full of sadness: "Now Hemen County is under martial law, and the city gate is blocked with huge stones. It seems that we must firmly defend it! The county magistrate even killed his wife and children. The Dasong court is loyal... This has also been praised by the big households in the city and Fan Dao, and they have donated money and people!"

He is a general, and he knows the situation of the world better: "If every city is like this in the future, how many people will die on our side? It will also delay the good opportunity to go north!"

"The three religions joined forces? This is normal... Who told me to offend all three?"

Aaron shrugged his shoulders and smiled nonchalantly: "But the scholars rebelled, and it won't work in three years... It's a dream to try to resist our army in a hurry! Pass my military order, first transfer 10,000 Liujia soldiers, follow me Siege!"

...

and door county.

The county magistrate stood on the city wall, looking at the dark army formation below.

Although he had already realized that he must die, but looking at this awe-inspiring army, he still couldn't help being shaken.

"Shariputra, form is emptiness, emptiness is form..."

Beside him, there were a few monks with bulging temples, bald heads, and scars. They needed to supplement nutrition when practicing martial arts. These monks looked like they often drank and ate meat.

At this time, there was no sadness or joy on his face, and he was reciting scriptures.

People are fickle!

Seeing how powerful the Liang army is, no matter how much the Zhang family and Buddhism and Taoism confuse them, no one may really be willing to die.

This team of monks is very important.

"Master...it's up to you to supervise the city defense."

The magistrate gritted his teeth.

"Amitabha, we will let the King of Liang know that the Buddha also has Vajra's glaring eyes... After this battle, we will be reborn in bliss, and Liang soldiers will fall into Avici Hell forever."

The leader of the monks put his palms together and proclaimed a Buddha's name.

Immediately, the beating of war drums was heard, and the sound shook the whole field!

"Siege!"

Aaron watched a wave of Liujia soldiers carrying shields and ladders rushing towards the city wall.

But on the city wall, arrows fell like raindrops.

And hot golden juice, boulders, logs...

boom!

A Liujia soldier was hit in the head by a falling rock, and blood splashed everywhere.

A Liujia soldier next to him didn't even wipe off the blood on his face, he directly grabbed the shield of his comrade in death, and continued to move forward, forward!

"I have heard for a long time that Liang Bing is not afraid of death, and I thought it was an exaggeration... I don't want to see you today, it really is!"

I saw Liang Bing rushing forward wave after wave, fighting to the death without retreating, and the ordinary soldiers above the city gate were so frightened that their legs trembled.

The county magistrate couldn't help sweating profusely.

If there were not monk soldiers serving as the supervising team, this battle would be in danger!

At this time, even though the monks and soldiers firmly believed in the Brahma God, their hands and feet were trembling secretly when they saw this scene.

"The devil king came to the world to have this ability to confuse people!"

The leader of the monks and soldiers shouted loudly, roaring like a lion: "We are waiting for the Buddha's disciples, and we will form a large formation of subduing demons and vajras!"

Suddenly, the first Liang Bing had already climbed up the ladder, and was beaten down again within a few strokes.

But behind him, there was a steady stream of soldiers, like ants...
