Emperor Zhenguan

Chapter 524
Among them, the leading brother is none other than Dugu Sheng.

Dugu Sheng said: "Sakyamuni sympathized with the misery of the people and lamented their sinking. Chen Jingdun exhorted the good to lure the virtuous, and made precepts and prohibits the evil to punish the sins. They all make the false return to the truth and return to the original. Buddhas and saints, Fu Yi used this as an argument , Those who are not saints can't, I ask Your Majesty to punish them severely."

Li Zhiyun looked at Fu Yi.

Brother, it's time for you to speak.

Fu Yi cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, courtesy and ability belong to relatives, and they are finally offered. This is the principle of loyalty and filial piety. The minister's actions are completed, but the Buddha went out of the city to become a monk, escaped from his father, and resisted the emperor with a man. Instead of rebelling against relatives. Dugu Sheng did not come from Kongsang, but followed the teaching of no father. I asked Dugu Sheng that those who are not filial have no relatives."

Dugu Sheng's face was furious, and he cursed: "How dare you bully me, the thief!"

Kongsang has many meanings, and here it refers to 'born without parents, with unknown origin'.

Fu Yi meant that Dugu Sheng did not have parents, but he obeyed the Buddhist teaching of fatherless, which shows that he is not a person who abides by filial piety, loyalty and goodness.

The reason why Dugu Sheng lost his composure was another meaning of this sentence.

Your Majesty, look, Dugu Sheng is a man without father and king!

Li Zhiyun said coldly: "Shangshu Dugu, let Fu Qing finish."

"Yes." Dugu Sheng glared at Fu Yi viciously.

On the matter of abolishing Buddhism, Fu Yi was well prepared, one set of principles followed another, and Li Zhiyun nodded repeatedly.

In fact, after he ascended the throne, Buddhism became a bit of an eyesore.

The reason is very simple, a temple raises monks, does not work, but occupies fields and wastes labor.

Can this be tolerated?
Honestly speaking, Li Zhiyun neither likes Buddhism nor dislikes it, but now Buddhism is hindering the development of Tang Dynasty.

It made him uncomfortable.

In the end, Li Zhiyun said: "What Fu Qing said is reasonable. From now on, all monks, nuns, Taoist priests, female crowns, etc., who practice diligently and abide by the precepts, will be ordered to live in a large temple and be self-sufficient. If they are not diligent, Those who have deficiencies in the precepts will be ordered to quit, and each will return to his hometown. The Secretary Ming is a rule, and he must teach according to the law. If there is a violation of the system, it should be stopped. The capital has three temples and two temples. The rest of the world, all states, Keep one for each, and let the rest know."

"Your Majesty is wise!" Fu Yi shouted.

Shuozhou, Niupi Pass.

Ashina Kusi Tuo rode his horse, raised his whip, and rushed to kill him with his gun.

"Tang Jun is nothing more than that." He sneered coldly, his eyes full of contempt for Tang Jun.

Rumble!
The ground trembled, and Tang Qi was scattered, and a pawn brandished a long knife to kill him.

"That is?"

"Heavy armored infantry of the Tang Dynasty!" The soldiers replied loudly.

Ashina Kusituo's eyes were slightly solemn. As Tang Jun's deadly enemy, Ashina Kusituo had naturally heard about the strength of the Tang people's plate armor.

However, he still wanted to give it a try.

"Kill with me!"

He galloped away.

Yu Chigong, who was hiding under the heavy plate armor, was overjoyed to see Ashina Kusituo advancing instead of retreating.

"kill!"

Facing the heavy plate armored infantry, the Turkic cavalry's proud cavalry charge was difficult to play a role, and they were trapped in a whirlpool.

At this time, the Tang cavalry on the periphery had begun to open their formation, outflanking the back of the Turkic cavalry on a large scale.

It was too late for Ashina Kusita to realize that something was wrong, because Yu Chigong swung the Mo Dao and directly chopped off the hooves of Ashina Kusita's war horse.

boom!
He fell heavily to the ground, followed by the reflection of a heavy rider and a falling sword in his pupils.

puff!

Heads are flying.

After killing Ashina Kusituo, the Tang army officially began to counterattack.

Tens of thousands of troops from both sides fought a bloody battle in the wilderness.

Three days later.

The Turkic soldiers and horses temporarily retreated a hundred miles.

It was not easy for Tang Jun to win this battle, it can only be said that he barely held on.

"Do you know what General Li's plan is?" Duan Zhixuan asked.

Several generals stood on the top of the city.

Yuchi Gong said: "Li Jing asked me to guard Niupi Pass, and when Xieli appears, give him news."

"And then?" Xie Shufang asked.

"I don't know." Yu Chigong said one thing at a time.

"Then where is he now?" Duan Zhixuan asked again.

Yuchi Gong said: "It should be in the pile of yellow flowers."

"Pile of yellow flowers?"

At this moment, the sound of beating drums was loud.

"Enemy attack, be alert!"

Yuchi roared respectfully, and the dense and rapid beating of drums resounded through the city.

Tang Jun took up arms one after another and stood at the critical moment.

Not far away, the Turkic king's flag fluttered in the wind.

Under the banner, Jieli looked gloomy and happy.

Back then in Huaihuang Town, he defeated Tang Jun, but he knew that this could never be the entire main force of Tang Jun.

Not long ago, there was news of Tang army reinforcements at Niupiguan, which made him sure that the main force of Tang army was hiding here.

The thing that made him unhappy was that Ashina Kusituo died in battle.

But it doesn't matter, he is about to win, and if he defeats Tang Jun's main force, he will be in control of the overall situation.

As the Turkic soldiers and horses launched an attack, Yu Chigong also learned from the scouts that Xieli had already assembled an army of more than [-] troops.

He quickly sent someone to pass the news to Li Jing.

This battle was extremely bloody. Facing Xieli's frenzied attack, Niupiguan couldn't stand it at all.

Two days later, Yu Chigong withdrew to Yunzhong.

Jieli rode on a tall horse, looked at Yunzhong City, and said coldly: "Whoever can take down this city will reward him with three hundred slaves."

With heavy rewards, the Turkic soldiers became even crazier.

But this time, Yu Chigong was extraordinarily strong because he had reinforcements!
"drive!"

"drink!"

"drive!"

The sound of horseshoes was extremely noisy, coming from afar.

"Khan, Tang Jun appeared in the south!"

"how many people?"

"No less than fifty thousand!"

Jie Li laughed loudly, "It doesn't matter how many baits you have, how many soldiers and horses you have, I'll come all the way, you all have to come to me!"

He has reason to be happy.

After fighting Tang Ren so many times, he also learned something.He knew that whether it was the Tang army on the western front or the Tang army on the eastern front, they appeared there to involve his troops.

As for him, he has stabilized the Western Front and defeated the Eastern Front.

In this way, if the troops are integrated all the way and go directly south, the Tang army's arrangement will collapse without a fight!

This is my Jieli's art of war!

"Order, let Simo go to meet the enemy!"

"As ordered!"

Ashina Simo led a group of soldiers and horses to kill the Tang army who came to support him.

The reinforcements were led by Cheng Yaojin.

"Turkic thief, die!"

After resting in the rear for such a long time, Cheng Yaojin felt that he was going to get rusty, and if he seized this opportunity now, how could he let it go.

The will to fall into the battle, there is death but not life.

Yu Chigong, who was on the top of the city, saw the arrival of the reinforcements, and immediately ordered people to spread the news.The morale of the whole army was greatly boosted, and they stubbornly repelled the Turkic onslaught.

The two sides fought fiercely for several hours, and in the end, no one could do anything to the other.

Jieli temporarily stopped his troops, while Cheng Yaojin took advantage of the situation and stationed outside the city, forming horns with Yunzhong, to guard against Turkic soldiers.

That night, Xieli sent a large army to attack Cheng Yaojin's camp at night.

But Cheng Yaojin didn't let him succeed.

"Hey, I already know that Xieli is not a good bird. Thanks to General Li's reminder, otherwise he would have caught him. Boys, let's kill the enemy!"

In the night, as the tigers of the Tang Army came out of the gate, the Turkic attack strategy failed.Cheng Yaojin beheaded all the thousands of Turkic soldiers who attacked the Tang Army camp this time.

After Xieli heard the news, he was not very angry, but secretly scolded the cunning Tang people.

In his view, this war ultimately depends on the outcome of the frontal battlefield.

As long as he wins the frontal battlefield, he wins.

And once the Tang army is defeated this time, he can take advantage of the situation to regain everything he lost.
