Chapter 1375 Baoguang Tathagata, Lord Xiaoshan, the rest of Manichaeism
"Dad! Why are you saying such depressing words if you are so mad? Xiaotang, that fellow, defeated the conscripting army on Jingdong Road, but only watched our jokes. Don't those fellows
Send reinforcements, I can't wait to find Xiao Tang immediately to settle the score. When we break out of the siege and gather the brothers from the sect to make a comeback, I will look for Xiao Tang and the gang to have their own story, but why do you want to send your child and Xie here?
Separate, but go to live with Xiao Tang’s fellow!?”
"No, Dad, we have to go together, and we have to stay together. How can we teach our children to let go of their elder brother in such a situation now?"
As soon as Fang La made his plan clear to Fang Tianding and Fang Jinzhi, he saw that his son and daughter expressed strong objections. After Fang La hesitated for a moment, he first comforted Fang Jinzhi in a gentle voice, and then turned around
, unexpectedly raised his arm and slapped Fang Tianding hard on the face. Although Fang Tianding was somewhat capable, he never expected that his father would slap him angrily in such a dangerous situation, and immediately half of Fang Tianding's face was slapped.
His face became red and swollen, and several teeth in his mouth were loose. Fang Tianding, who was immediately stunned, looked at Fang La blankly, not knowing what to say.
"Fool! My father is used to pampering you, but now you are so childish! In the future, without my support, you will still be so willful and willful. Not only you, but also your own sister will be killed in vain.
!”
Fang La had a look of anger on his face, as he pointed at Fang Tianding and cursed loudly, teaching his son who was so sophisticated and thoughtful about the current situation that he must clearly understand the current situation.
In fact, except for Fang Tianding, who is young and energetic and appears to be particularly irritable, most of the religious leaders present, such as Deng Yuanjue and Wang Yin, are also very aware of the various rebel armies led by Xiao Tang. If they send troops to rescue the Manichaeans,
It's a huge kindness, but even if the other party doesn't send troops to help, there's really nothing wrong with it.
If the situation between them were reversed, Fang La led the Manichaeans to defeat the conquering army, and if Xiao Tang and the rebels in the mountains under his command were in danger of being surrounded and suppressed, Fang La would be eager to capture the entire territory of Jiangnan, so how could he have any scruples?
The life and death of Xiao Tang? The temporary cooperation between the two sides was also based on the common enemy of the Song Dynasty. However, after the development of their respective bases, they did not reach an agreement that when either side was in danger, the other side must send troops to help.
Especially when Fang La and Xiao Tang said goodbye, although both of them understood that the other party's gathering together would draw the attention of the court and be beneficial to them, they had secretly begun to compete with each other, and they probably also had me in their hearts.
It depends on how long you can keep dancing...
Thinking according to the most optimistic prediction, Fang La also knew that if he could strengthen his strength with Xiao Tang, one in the south and one in the north, and carve up the world, then when the two heroes of the Green Forest wanted to conquer the Central Plains... the relationship between the two sides would immediately change from a common confrontation with the imperial court.
The cooperative relationship has turned into a relationship between two heroes who are bound to compete for hegemony and plan to kill each other.
But the current situation is completely different. Fang La and his Manichaean rebels are already in a critical situation. They have no choice but to fight three poles, so they have to lower their profile and ask Xiao Tang to send troops for reinforcements. But the other side is determined not to send troops.
There was nothing he could do. Xiao Tang was naturally not a fool. Like himself, he was also an enemy of a huge empire. He had to carefully consider the situation step by step. How could he easily take risks and lure the army to come and confront the elites of the Song Dynasty, and completely
Disrupt one's own deployment?
However, although Fang La is now in a precarious situation, he is still a green forest hero who can rally hundreds of thousands of rebels to fight against the imperial court. Fang La also knows what kind of person Xiao Tang is. Xiao Tang did not hesitate to fight against Manichaeism.
The central leaders went to war, ruined the harmony between them, and wanted to save countless people in Hangzhou who were robbed by soldiers and bandits. Fang La saw all these things, and he could roughly judge that Xiao and Tang really cherished their reputation, not to mention that they were angry with each other at the beginning.
No matter how strong he is, since he personally promised that if the Manichaeans in the south of the Yangtze River are unable to withstand the imperial army that comes to conquer, they will also be willing to take in the relatives of the Fang family who came to seek refuge with him... At least he can get rich by breaking his promise.
On the surface, Xiao Tang can't do it yet.
But would Xiao Tang be suspicious of Fang Tianding and others' status as remnants of Manichaeism? Of course he would. At that time, Fang La knew very well that Fang Tianding had no ability to summon Manichae followers and command the heroes, and Fang Jinzhi was only a girl.
Deng Yuanjue, Wang Yin and other brave warriors were all generals, but they did not incite the crowd to revive Manichaeism's original momentum. Fang La only hoped that Fang Tianding and Fang Jinzhi, their son and daughter, could survive the disaster.
I hope they can lower their profile and seek protection from Xiao Tang. It is expected that Xiao Tang also knows how to recognize people. When he realized that Fang Tianding and others did not pose any threat to him, he wanted to appease Deng Yuanjue and Wang Yin.
After considering the hearts of the fierce generals, even if he has the opportunity to use the influence of the remaining Manichaeism in the Jiangnan region in the future, he will probably be willing to save the lives of Fang Tianding and Fang Jinzhi, instead of teaching all the children of the Fang clan to be massacred by the imperial court.
So when I heard Fang Tianding still clamoring that he wanted to settle accounts with Xiao Tang because he refused to send troops to rescue him, and showing such an attitude, what else is this but asking for death? So Fang La had no choice but to wake him up and teach him how to do it.
Understand the current situation immediately.
This is the most suitable and only choice to save the lives of his children. When Fang Tianding covered his cheeks and listened to Fang La clearly explaining his thoughts in a stern voice, he was stunned and just thought carefully about his father's words.
, if he noticed something for a moment, he remained silent.
Fang La had also made up his mind, and immediately stood up and said loudly: "I have made up my mind, and there is no need to do it again! Deng Yuanjue, Wang Yin, Si Xingfang, Du Wei, and Zhang Tao listened to the order.
The Song army is encircling Yuandong from all directions. They want to capture me, Fang Lahao, to earn a huge reward. I, Chen Houtong, Fang Fei and other brothers from the sect will lead the troops to fight and deal with it. You
The five of them are escorting Tianding, while Jin Zhi only hopes to go deep into the mountains. Although there are many steep cliffs to the west, most of the Song army is unaware of the twists and turns of the mountain roads here.
It would be best if I and my brothers could break out of the siege. If not... you and the others avoid being hunted by the officers and soldiers and just run away to the east to find Pang Wanchun, the leader of Xiao Tang's command in Baiyun Mountain Village, and take a boat to cross north.
Go and seek asylum from Xiao Tang..."
"No!"
Just as Fang La finished speaking, it was Deng Yuanjue who shouted. He immediately stood up and said urgently: "Holy Duke, I, Deng Yuanjue, have been following Xie for many years. I have been doing my best to resist the tyranny of the imperial court.
Even if they fail, how can they abandon their lives? The young master and the young lady are escorted by other brothers and guards. At this point, to avoid being captured and humiliated, even if I have to fight to death, I, Deng Yuanjue, am still willing to be with the Holy Duke.
, even if he turns into a fierce ghost, he still wants to help Xin kill the enemy!"
After listening to Deng Yuanjue's anxious words, Fang La laughed miserably, and then said: "Deng Protector, why don't I want to break out of the siege? I can still make a comeback and continue to overthrow the brothers of the sect to resist the imperial army? But now the military situation is critical, I can
Whether we can escape or not is still unknown. At least Tianding and Jinzhi must be settled, and we cannot teach them to follow me in danger without being able to protect themselves... Protector Deng, we have been brothers of the sect for many years,
If something unexpected happens to me, this is my last request to you, but you still want to refuse me?"
"But!......"
Deng Yuanjue became more and more anxious, but when he was about to speak again, he was grabbed by Wang Yin beside him. At this time, he saw the usually taciturn and solemn Mr. Xiaoshan think about it for a moment, and suddenly let out a long sigh.
, said: "Protector Deng, now the Holy Duke is going to lead the brothers in the sect to fight to the death, but the young master and the young lady are worried and have other things in mind, how can they concentrate on leading the brothers in the sect to break out? Now we have been entrusted with such responsibilities.
I really want to teach him to feel at ease..."
After Wang Yin spoke in a long voice, he immediately walked up to Fang La, bowed his hands and saluted, and said solemnly: "Wang Yin has been ordered by the Holy Duke to keep the young master and the young lady safe. When Qian escapes, he will also pay attention to the Holy Duke and the young lady.
Regarding the fighting situation among the sect brothers... I can only hope that there will still be a time when I can reunite with the Holy Duke and hand over the young master and the young lady to Yu Xie again!"
