??????????????????????????????
Today's Cao Xuan is quite high-spirited. After all, he became the king of Wei and took control of Yuzhou and Yanzhou. His strength has been enhanced. This is Cao Xuan's highlight moment and his proudest time.
Cao Xuan is not satisfied yet, he hopes to make greater progress. If he could destroy Wang Qi and annex Qi, then Cao Xuan would have the capital to sweep the world.
Cao Xuan¡¯s focus is still on the army.
In terms of government affairs, Cao Xuan left Cheng Lin in charge, while in terms of military affairs, Cao Xuan went all out. So he spent a lot of time training soldiers in the army. The soldiers in the army are given food, weapons, armor, etc., and are fully provided.
All this is to improve combat effectiveness. You must know that in the past, Cao Xuan fought with Wang Qi, and Wang Qi led many masters to defeat his army, which made Cao Xuan feel extremely uncomfortable.
Not only is his military combat effectiveness inferior to Wang Qi's, but his high-end combat effectiveness is also inferior.
Cao Xuan tried his best to change all this.
With the support of the Great Zen Temple, he has a great master under his command, and he has high-end combat power. What needs to be done now is to improve the combat effectiveness of the soldiers.
In fact, when Cao Xuan was training his troops, he would often mention his defeat by Wang Qi in the past. This was to stimulate the soldiers, so that all the soldiers would know their shame and become brave, and be able to work hard and remember the shame of the past.
The weather in late November is full of cold wind, blowing on people's bodies, adding a hint of chill. Especially here in Wei State, it is colder than in Chu State in the south.
"It's just that although the weather is cold, Cao Xuan's fighting spirit in training troops has not diminished at all.
He is still training in the army.
When Cao Xuan was watching the soldiers practicing, the soldiers came in a hurry and reported: "King Wei, the military advisor wants to see you."
"knew."
Cao Xuan nodded and ordered the generals to continue training. Then he got up and went to the Chinese army's tent. He entered the Chinese army's tent, sat down, looked at Cen Wen and said, "The military advisor is here today, but what's the matter?"
Cen Wen said: "Two things, one is about Qi State, and the other is about Chu State."
Cao Xuandao: "Tell me and listen."
Cen Wen said slowly: "Qi State still has a great harvest this year. Even in the barren Bingzhou, because Gao Yuanfeng planted a large number of sweet potatoes, after this batch of food was harvested, the food was abundant. In addition, the news from Qi State was that the Japanese state Proclaimed as a vassal. The entire Japanese state turned to the Qi state, so that among the people, the Qi state had a great influence, and countless scholars praised the King of Qi."
Cao Xuan¡¯s face suddenly turned cold. His eyes were sharp and he said: "This Wang Qi really makes enemies everywhere, and at the same time establishes his prestige everywhere! First it's Xianbei, then it's the Xiongnu, and now it's the Japanese country."
Cen Wen said: "So in the eyes of many scholars, and even in the eyes of ordinary people, Wang Qi is like a savior. He made Xianbei seek peace, made the Xiongnu fearful, and even made the Japanese become vassals. These things are achievements that many people cannot achieve in their lifetime."
Cao Xuan nodded. Although he was a little envious, Cao Xuan was also pragmatic and said: "No matter what, we only need to develop our own strength now."
Cen Wen said: "Your Majesty is wise!"
Cao Xuandao: "What news is there from Chu State?"
Cen Wen said in a deep voice: "From the Chu State, Chu King Xiong Huai sent a message, asking us to jointly send troops to attack the Qi State after the spring begins. Moreover, the Chu State, with the help of the power of the elixir, has a great master. Even, The Chu State received help from a sect called the Barbarian God Sect, which has two great masters. In total, the Chu State has three great masters."
After hearing this, Cao Xuan looked at Cen Wen and said, "Military advisor, what do you think about the battle with Wang Qi in Kaichun?"
Cen Wen's eyes were sharp and he said: "Your Majesty, it's time to start a war with Wang Qi. Wang Qi now occupies Yangzhou, Xuzhou, Qingzhou, Jizhou, Bingzhou and Youzhou, occupying half of the Great Zhou Dynasty."
"His foundation is getting stronger and stronger."
"If you delay for one more year, Wang Qi's strength will increase a little more. It is impossible for our development to keep up with Qi's. Therefore, if we want to start a war, we must start it earlier. Keep delaying until Wang Qi's strength is fully stabilized. If you want to defeat Wang Qi, it will be as difficult as climbing to the sky."
Cen Wen said: "So when the Chu State sent a letter, I proposed to start a war."
Cao Xuan nodded and said: "The military advisor thinks that a war should start, and I also think that a war needs to be started. But this time, I think that the Great Zen Temple should provide more support. Just having a great master who understands the Dharma is definitely not enough. .Now that Chu State has three great masters, we should also have morepoint. "
Cen Wen thought for a while and said: "This matter needs to be persuaded to enlightenment. If he passes the letter to the Great Zen Temple, then the Great Zen Temple will give more support."
Cao Xuan said: "This matter, I have to go to the military advisor. You go to persuade Wu Dharma and ask him to help."
"Follow your orders!"
Cen Wen nodded in reply.
Cao Xuan said: "Military advisor, do you think we can get Zixia Mountain to get involved?"
"Unlikely!"
Cen Wen shook his head with a helpless expression.
He said: "Zixia Mountain has been frightened by Wang Qi. In the past, Zixia Mountain gave Wang Qi the Nine-turn Purple Golden Pill as compensation and suffered a big loss. Now they may not be willing to take action."
Cao Xuan thought for a while and said: "That's all, let's forget about Zixia Mountain. At the moment, we still rely on the Great Zen Temple and use the power of the Great Zen Temple to fight against Wang Qi's Grand Master. Of course, although the Grand Master is needed, he can The most important thing is our own soldiers."
Cen Wen said: "What the king said is true."
Cao Xuandao: "Military advisor, you should make arrangements earlier. After all, spring is not far away. The earlier you decide things, the earlier you will feel at ease. Otherwise, if it is delayed until spring, it will be too late to talk to Wufa."
Cen Wen nodded and said: "Your Majesty is wise, I will leave my humble post right away."
He immediately stood up to say goodbye, left the military camp, and went straight to the area where the Great Zen Temple was staying in the city. Because Cen Wen represented Cao Xuan, he often came to the area where the Great Zen Temple was located, so as soon as he arrived, he directly entered the temple where the Great Zen Temple was staying and saw Wu Fa who was chanting sutras.
Cen Wen saluted and said, "Zen Master Wufa."
Wu Fa stopped knocking on the wooden fish, raised his eyes to look at Cen Wen, and said, "Commander Cen is here, what's the matter?"
Cen Wen did not beat around the bush and went straight to the point: "Zen Master Wufa, now there are more masters at the Grand Master level in Chu State, and with the help of the Barbarian God Sect, there are three masters at the Grand Master level."
"The Chu State, on the one hand, sent a letter to express its gratitude to the Great Zen Temple. After all, without the elixirs of the Great Zen Temple, it would be difficult for the Chu State's masters to break through to the great masters. On the other hand, the Chu State has already said that in the spring Later he went to war with Qi."
"This war is a decisive battle. We will not give up until Qi is destroyed."
"We, the State of Wei, are also preparing for a war after the spring. However, the current situation shows that we are still seriously insufficient in terms of high-end combat power, and cannot even compare with the State of Chu."
"After all, in terms of Sanqing Temple, Wang Fuzhi and Qi Changsheng support Wang Qi, and Wang Zongxi is a master at the Grand Master Realm. Furthermore, Wang Qi's own strength is also extremely powerful, enough to be considered a master at the Grand Master Realm. "
"It's equivalent to Wang Qi having four great masters."
Cen Wen said: "So we are still seriously lacking in strength now. I sincerely ask Zen Master Wufa and the Great Zen Temple to provide more support."
After Wu Fa heard this, he frowned slightly.
At this moment, Wufa was a little disappointed.
Cao Xuan's development is good, but unfortunately compared to Wang Qi, his strength is still much weaker.
The most important thing is that Wang Qi is developing too fast. It's just that now the Taoist Sanqing Temple is on the side of Wang Qi, and the whole Qi State supports the Sanqing Temple. At this time, it is impossible for the Dazen Temple to support the Qi State and can only support Cao Xuan.
A shrewd person who understands the Dharma already understands the stakes without needing Cen Wen to say anything.
He stroked the gray beard under his chin, and after thinking for a while, he said: "Military Commander Cen, I will immediately send a letter to the abbot of the Great Zen Temple, asking the abbot to send the Grand Master. In addition, I, the stick monk of the Great Zen Temple, will , will also come down from the mountain to help. In this battle, I will do my best to help King Wei."
Cen Wen breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "Thank you very much, Zen Master Wu Fa."
After realizing the Dharma, he closed his eyes and continued to knock the wooden fish.
Cen Wen didn't care about enlightenment. He was happy in his heart and left in a hurry to tell Cao Xuan the good news.
When he came, he had already considered many strategies, prepared to use emotion and reason, and even prepared to threaten Dazen Temple. In short, he considered various plans, but in the end he did not expect that this time it would go so smoothly. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
