Long Chen smiled and motioned Tian Liang to sit down and talk.
Tian Liang sat down again.
"Shopkeeper Tian has a lot of business talent, so it would be a pity to stay in Jade Buddha Pass for free."
"I won't beat around the bush. I want Shopkeeper Tian to go to Nanliang."
Long Chen's words made Tian Liang confused, why should he go to Nanliang?
"I wonder why King Wu sent his son to Nanliang?"
Tian Liang was from the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and had never been to Nanliang, so naturally he was unwilling to go.
Long Chen said: "I want to destroy Xixia and Nanliang. I need someone to train troops in Nanliang and support me. General Wu will also go."
"I want Shopkeeper Tian and General Wu to go together. When my army attacks from the north, you will send troops from the south to respond."
Tian Liang looked at Wu Jian, who nodded slightly.
Tian Liang was hesitant in his heart.
He is from the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and went to Nanliang to train troops. He traveled thousands of miles and his future was uncertain...
"I understand Shopkeeper Tian's concerns. The humidity and heat in Nanliang are unbearable. It's really not easy."
"That's what I think. Shopkeeper Tian has a lot of business talent. It's a pity to stay here."
"When we get to Nanliang, it's kept secret. There's no need to worry about the world's retaliation."
"Furthermore, Shopkeeper Tian will train his troops and horses. When I conquer Jinling, it will be a great achievement."
"When the time comes, it will be no problem for Shopkeeper Tian to become a general and a marquis."
"Of course, this is just my idea. If Shopkeeper Tian doesn't want to go, then forget it."
"There are hundreds of thousands of troops at Jade Buddha Pass. Shopkeeper Tian stays here, it's just an extra pair of chopsticks."
Long Chen saw Zhongtian's talent in grain management and wanted him to help Wu Jian.
Wu Jian is good at commanding soldiers and horses, but for food, grass and money, he still needs a deputy, and Tian Liang is the most suitable.
Tian Liang betrayed Tianxiahui. He was worried about being hunted down, so he could only rely on Long Chen, so this person is reliable.
Tian Liang was silent for a long time, then looked at Long Chen resolutely and said, "Okay, I will obey King Wu's arrangement. I don't know when to get up?"
Long Chen took Tian Liang's hand and smiled: "Don't worry, I will arrange for you to go with General Wu when the time comes."
"Shopkeeper Tian, I'm not a big talker. I promise you that when we meet again, I will grant you a title!"
Tian Liang stood up and bowed: "Thank you, King Wu!"
If this was said from other people's mouth, Tian Liang would never believe it, but when it was said from Long Chen's mouth, Tian Liang believed it.
Thinking about his life, starting from running errands in Tianxia and becoming the leader of the hall, Tian Liang felt that Tianxia would be his lucky star.
Later, the world fell, and Long Chen caused the world to collapse overnight.
Now, Long Chen gave him another chance.
Tian Liang is keenly aware that perhaps the wealth of his life lies here.
Therefore, Tian Liang finally agreed.
"I have a request."
"Shopkeeper Tian, please tell me."
"The whole family is here, please ask King Wu to take care of you."
Long Chen smiled and said: "Don't worry about this, I guarantee that they will take care of everything."
Tian Liang bowed and said, "In this case, I don't have to worry anymore. It's all driven by King Wu."
Long Chen smiled and said: "Okay, go ahead and prepare."
Tian Liang left the room.
After closing the door, Wu Jian asked: "Why did the young general ask Tian Liang to follow me? This person has betrayed Tianxiahui before. I don't think he can be trusted."
Long Chen said: "It can't be said that he betrayed Tianxiahui. I was in Xifeng Town at that time. He just wanted to sell it to me. Many friends and many ways."
"Now he has no choice but to follow me. Moreover, this person is utilitarian and will not be willing to die of old age, so he can be used."
"In addition, when you go to Nanliang, you not only need to train troops, but also need someone to take care of the various grain, grass and military pay businesses. It is most suitable for Tian Liang to be your deputy."
Wu Jian nodded and said, "That's right. After all, we have been at Jade Buddha Pass for so long, so we can be considered old acquaintances."
Long Chen nodded and said: "Yes, that's it."
"I've been in the room these past few days. Uncle Wu has just made a breakthrough and needs to practice more to stabilize himself."
"Call Han Ziping and the others over again, and I'll let them practice the Dragon and Phoenix Heart Art together."
Although Dragon and Phoenix Heart Technique is not a specific martial arts secret book, it is of great use in improving your cultivation.
Han Ziping and the other three were confidants, and Long Chen was very generous to them.
Before that, Long Chen specially selected secret books for them from the Hidden Martial Pavilion, copied them, and sent them here for them to practice.
They also specifically asked Linglong Pavilion to customize weapons for them.
Wu Jian went out to call for someone, and soon, Han Ziping and three others came in.
Long Chen taught the Dragon and Phoenix Heart Technique to the three of them and asked them to practice it well.
Afterwards, Long Chen hid in Jade Buddha Pass.
....
Zhenguo Temple.
A monk wearing thick monk robes entered the room. Monk Deshan, wearing a cassock, sat in the room and discussed matters with more than a dozen monks and military officers.
"Abbott, there is still no movement at Jade Buddha Pass today."
The monk who came in took the first seat on Deshan's left.
This person is Juekong, the supervisor of Zhenguo Temple.
A general wearing black armor next to him sneered: "This guy is really bluffing. A winter has passed and there is no movement at all."
This person is Ma Xing, the commander of the Iron Kites stationed at Zhenguo Temple.
A monk with a ferocious face and turned-out nostrils on the opposite side agreed: "I think so. They said they would attack in autumn, but a winter has passed, and it's already spring, and there's still no movement."
This person is Guang Xiang, a monk general from Zhenguo Temple.
Juekong, the prison guard, looked at Deshan and waited for him to speak.
Deshan nodded slightly and said, "Long Chengen is full of tricks, so don't be careless."
"Whether he is bluffing or not, we must have our own plans and cannot be led by him."
"I just discussed with everyone and planned to take the initiative to attack."
Juekong from the prison hospital glanced at the surrounding monk soldiers and Tie Yaozi generals, and asked in slight surprise: "But... didn't the king and uncle say that we can just hold on?"
"We attack rashly, just in case..."
Juekong originally followed the former supervisor Fuhai as his deputy. During the battle at Chiyan Temple, Fuhai was captured and died, and Juekong became the new supervisor.
After the last battle, Juekong felt afraid of Long Chen.
Ma Xing, the iron kite general, chuckled and said, "Master Juekong, were you scared to death by Long Chengen?"
"The king asked us to guard the Zhenguo Temple. This is correct, but we will not accept the order of the king."
"The Art of War written by Long Cheng'en also says 'act according to the interests'. We now have the advantage in military strength. If we gather our forces to attack Jade Buddha Pass, we will definitely catch him off guard."
Guangxiang, the general of the monk soldiers, also said: "Surprise and attack the enemy unprepared is Long Chengen's usual tactic. We can also follow the same pattern."
These people are very familiar with "The Art of War" written by Long Chen and can speak it casually.
Deshan nodded slightly and said: "That's what I mean too. Long Chengen is too arrogant. We must fight back and let Dongzhou see the military power of Xixia to save him from clamoring all day long!"
Guangxiang, the general of the monk soldiers, said: "The abbot is right. Just destroying Xixia with just one sentence will make us restless. We also want to let Long Chengen see how powerful we are."
Others agreed one after another.
Juekong, the supervisor, saw that everyone had the same idea and said, "Disciple, follow the abbot's arrangements."
Deshan nodded slightly: "Come, let's discuss the battle plan."
