After Li Zhichang left the Youlin Valley, he rushed back to Jingling.↑Jingling was even more prosperous than before under the rule of Xu Xingzhi. At the same time, under the strategy of Wei Zheng, Pegasus Ranch had to temporarily integrate into Li Zhichang's rule. In the south, Li Zhichang had become an important force.
Whether it is Dugu Feng who rebels from the monks, or Li Zhichang, who has never lost, he is an invisible deterrent to the heroes in the south. Even though Wang Shichong defeated Li Mi, Li family swept Longyou, and Dou Jiande was intimidated by the heroes in the south, Li Zhichang was definitely the biggest threat in the eyes of the heroes in the south, especially after Du Fuwei and Fu Gongyou openly broke up.
After Du Fuwei and Fu Gongyou broke up, the Jianghuai Army had lost the ability to dominate the south. Before the two had once again divided the superiority and annexed the opponent's forces, they were unable to pose a threat to the surrounding areas. However, the situation in the world changed rapidly. After Fu Gongyou or Du Fuwei defeated the opponent and regrouped, it was probably no longer a place where the Jianghuai Army could rush around.
Li Zhichang spent a long time discussing military strategies with Xu Xingzhi and Wei Zheng, and expressed deep regret for not finding Zheng Shiru. However, in the overall situation of the world, Zheng Shiru was not so important after Li Zhichang had two strategies, Wei Zheng and Xu Xingzhi.
Rong Fengxiang has tasted the taste of the life and death talisman, and at least temporarily had to obey Li Zhichang's order. Li Zhichang's power was integrated, and he was no longer the rootless tree like before. Even if he could not compare with the three heroes of the world, Dou Jiande and Wang Shichong, he was not a person who could be kneaded at will.
The situation in the north gradually became clear. Next was the battle between the three heroes. Now the Li family imitated the three rules of Emperor Gaozu of Han, rested and recovered. The soldiers were also sharp and there were countless capable ministers under his command. It was the most powerful prince in the world. The only flaw was that Liu Wuzhou was in the rear of the Li family, which was a restless factor, and Dou Jiande was also eyeing him.
Dou Jiande and Wang Shichong ruled the Central Plains. Although they each had their own limitations, they had strong troops and vast territory. The most popular one now is Wang Shichong. After defeating Li Mi, the culprit of the Sui Dynasty, they could almost be called at the peak of their lives.
Li Zhichang, Xu Xingzhi and others analyzed various forms, as well as Li Zhichang's experience in Bashu, and finally he had to temporarily stop competing with the heroes of the northern part. Even Bashu, which could easily touch the sensitive nerves of the three northern part, did not touch them for the time being, and was committed to sweeping the south.
Li Zhichang said: "As long as the strategic direction is determined, we will implement it seriously, and the situation will change rapidly. Even gods cannot count as much as everything. Only by constantly expanding their power can we ensure that we will not be annexed. This is a difficult truth in troubled times."
Wei Zheng said: "Our biggest problem now is the problem of money, food and weapons. With the help of Pegasus Ranch, it is actually not difficult to form a cavalry. However, the terrain in the south is complex and the cavalry is not very effective. The importance of Pegasus Ranch lies in the future when we can compete with the heroes in the north. Even if the lord has a treasure of Yang Gong in his hand, the treasure will not be taken out in a short time; on the other hand, we have digested the Jingxiang area and can further expand, and this can be carried out at the same time as the lord takes out the treasure of Yang Gong, and there will be no other conflicts."
Xu Xingzhi said decisively: "Xuancheng's words are thorough. The Baling Gang has done countless evils. Although Xiao Xian was the descendant of the emperor of the previous dynasty, his subordinates, Xiang Yushan and others opened gambling halls, brothels and human trafficking. The evil deeds are outrageous. The lord should act as a benevolent and righteous teacher and act as a way for heaven."
Li Zhichang said: "What the two gentlemen said is very true. It is not difficult to take Baling. Because of the Xiang family, Xiao Xian can be said to have lost all the people's hearts. This battle can be determined by a battle. However, the difficulty is that Lin Shihong will not sit and watch Baling fall into our hands. This is the only thing to worry about, but I have already thought of a countermeasure."
Xu Xingzhi smiled and said, "Do you want to build a plank road openly and secretly travel to Chencang?"
Li Zhichang said: "Sir is worthy of being the reincarnation of Wuhou. I want to take a step further and take two steps. Please ask Xuancheng to write a war book for me. On the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, I will discuss the Tao and destroy the gods in Zhishan Temple in Chang'an City with the four great saints monks." Discussion on Tao and destroy the gods is a trend passed down from the Wei and Jin Dynasties. Buddhism and Taoist schools and sects often convene a meeting, and all sects of their own sects who are proficient in the principles of the various sects to argue. The four great saints monks play a very important role in Buddhism. Li Zhichang's move is tantamount to openly challenge the Buddhism, and it is difficult for the other party to refuse, and this move is also a chance for the Buddhist sect to subdue Li Zhichang with the ability of the four great saints monks. This is a temptation that they cannot refuse, even if there is a trap, it is difficult for the other party to refuse this battle.
At the same time, Wei Zheng and Xu Xingzhi also understood the profound meaning of Li Zhichang. Li Zhichang must have wanted him to destroy Xiao Xian during the discussion of Taoism and destruction of gods with the four saint monks. And no one would have thought that they would send troops when Li Zhichang discussed Taoism and destruction of gods with the four saint monks in Chang'an. On the other hand, this also shows that Li Zhichang has deep trust in them and dares to entrust such a major event to them.
When the war book was conveyed to Cihang Jingzhai, Shi Feixuan, who was still recovering from the wounds, was also shocked. It was not that they did not want to use Ning Daoqi to deal with Li Zhichang, but there was a sky sword Song Que in the south. Moreover, Ning Daoqi had confirmed in person that under his secret peeping, Li Zhichang had reached a state of transcendence and unpredictability. Even if Ning Daoqi wanted to defeat him, he had to pay a heavy price. At that time, they would have no candidates to shock Song Que. Moreover, with Ning Daoqi's identity, it was not easy to directly fight against Li Zhichang. After all, Li Zhichang was powerful on one hand, but he had not yet shaken Ning Daoqi's position as the number one person in the Central Plains.
Li Zhichang openly challenged the four great saints, so it became a request they could not refuse, because the four great saints were much older than those who had pursued Shi Zhixuan back then, and it was impossible to take a long journey to pursue Li Zhichang again. What's more, with the respect of the four, they almost became famous.
Shi Feixuan held the war book with Wei Zhenglong flying phoenix dance, and couldn't help but lower his head and smiled bitterly: "Brother Li's confidence is really scary." Li Zhichang was a dignified and open plot, and the venue was Chang'an, the big nest of Li's family, which also showed that Li Zhichang was not afraid of Li's family's revenge, and he dared to make ground on Tai Sui's head, his lawless spirit.
Shi Feixuan also understood this point. Before Li Zhichang and the four great saints decided to win and lose, even the Li family did not find Li Zhichang to avenge Li Shimin. In addition to Li Yuan, Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji were mostly grateful. It was because Li Zhichang saw through this that he was fearless.
Li Zhichang set the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, and time was already very tight, and Shi Feixuan had no extra time to arrange more. All he could do was invite the four great saint monks. At the same time, if Li Zhichang discussed the Tao that destroys the gods, the reputation would probably be beyond ordinary people's imagination. Shi Feixuan could not easily bear the consequences of the four great saint monks defeating Li Zhichang. This was also Li Zhichang's open declaration of war on Buddhism, and they finally got to this point.
After Li Zhichang sent out his war letter, he went into seclusion for a month and put down common things. By the time he left the seclusion, heavy snow had already fallen outside. Li Zhichang stepped into the yard, and the surroundings were white, which made Li Zhichang feel at ease.
At the same time, it seems that there is a heart-to-heart relationship. The sound of the flute slowly rises outside. It is impossible to describe the beauty of the flute sound with all words. On the other hand, it also gives people endless imagination space. The sound of the flute does not contain any emotions, but it can arouse the emotions in the heart, and all kinds of bitterness, joy, sourness and sweetness are poured into the heart.
There was an extra jade man in the snow, and nothing could explain Li Zhichang's emotions at this moment. The person in front of him was Shi Qingxuan. In the snow, Shi Qingxuan burst into a smile like a flower. He wanted to say thousands of words but he could stop. The jade flute that played the sound of the flute was also held by his jade hand.
She blinked her bright eyes and said cutely: "Why don't you welcome me?"
Li Zhichang shook his head and said, "I really didn't expect that when I left the seclusion, I could hear Qingxuan's fairy sound, as if it was dreamy, so unreal."
Shi Qingxuan said: "You are writing random paintings at the door of someone else's house, I'm here to cause trouble for you."
Li Zhichang chuckled and said, "I thought Qingxuan would praise me for using the allusion of "Wang Ziyou's visit to Dai on the Snowy Night".
Shi Qingxuan smiled and said, "What's there to be so admirable? They just came to take a walk casually because they were a little bored. They also knew that Xiangyang was your territory, so they just came to see you."
Li Zhichang said leisurely: "Qingxuan doesn't love the life of seclusion, how could she think of Jingji and Movement?"
Shi Qingxuan said, "Okay, don't pretend to be serious. I know you still want to see me. You want to discuss the Tao and destroy the gods. I don't know that there is no chance to see me again. People come to you and let you see it. Unfortunately, it's winter now, otherwise I will definitely be able to blur your eyes in my skirt."
Li Zhichang stood upright with his hands behind his back, and the heavy snow flew, which further highlighted his extraordinary nature. He said happily: "It will naturally make me happy to see Qingxuan, but I will win and lose without any danger when I go to Chang'an. Qingxuan doesn't have to worry about me. With this month, it may be difficult for anyone in the world to kill me. Please Qingxuan must not worry about me."
Shi Qingxuan stepped forward, stood at the place close to Li Zhichang, and gently opened her lips and said, "Okay, the invincible city Lord Li, are you just letting your friend - a delicate beauty, be forced by the wind and snow with you?"
At this time, Li Zhichang just needs to move forward slightly to touch Shi Qingxuan's body. A faint fragrance comes from Shi Qingxuan's body. He lowers his head slightly and can see Shi Qingxuan's charming beauty. His eyes and eyebrows and skin that are whiter than snow. Li Zhichang said: "If it is reported that I have neglected you, your countless admirers know that they may make me an enemy in the world. In this way, I have to enshrine Qingxuan high."
