Outside Chang'an City, Lin Ze looked at the five figures intertwining in the sky and asked Zhuang Zhou: "Senior brother, are you really so strong after being blessed by destiny?"
"It stands to reason that when Emperor Qin first entered the third realm of heaven and man, even though his imperial path was special and slightly stronger than the Confucian Zeng Shen, it was comparable to Meng Ke and Xun Kuang Yan Hui, but far behind."
"Now that Emperor Qin has one against four, he is able to gain the upper hand without using all his strength. It is really unbelievable."
Zhuang Zhou observed for a moment and replied with an expression that should be right: "The first three realms of the four realms of heaven and man, the first realm is to use the way of heaven to reshape the body, the second realm is to find one's own avenue in the way of heaven and condense the seeds of the avenue, and the third realm
Realize your own way to the extreme."
"After serious calculation, the first three realms of heaven and man basically rely on the way of heaven to have all kinds of power. And the so-called destiny is actually favored by the way of heaven. The son of destiny is equal to the son of heaven."
"You can't defeat Tiandao's own son with what Tiandao gave you. Is it any wonder?"
Lin Ze was slightly stunned and couldn't help but praise: "Senior brother, I admire your true knowledge and insight."
While Lin Ze was talking to Zhuang Zhou, the Four Confucian Sages were once again forcefully repulsed by Emperor Qin. Judging from the change in their expressions, they seemed to have suffered a small loss.
However, Meng Ke and the others quickly returned to normal and rushed forward again without saying a word.
At this point in the battle, the four Confucian sages could actually withdraw and avoid fighting.
However, their pride as Confucian sages told them that they could not retreat.
With four enemies against one, it’s okay to remain in a stalemate. If you run away in embarrassment in front of everyone, how can you let the Confucians face the Taoist palace and the Buddhist sect in the future?
Moreover, in the perception of the three of them, Emperor Qin's power of destiny is continuously weakening. Theoretically speaking, if they keep fighting, they will only win in the end.
In addition, the allied forces of Buddhism and Confucianism are jointly attacking Chang'an. According to the Three Saints' speculation, once Chang'an is defeated, Emperor Qin's destiny will disappear immediately. At that time, it will be the best time to kill Emperor Qin and gain opportunities.
But Zeng Shen had a different idea. If the three religions conquered the Qin Dynasty, why should Confucianism be the one to contribute, while the Taoist palace and the Buddhists could just sit back and enjoy the success?
Zeng Shen, who was extremely angry, did not rush forward, but shouted to the four Buddhas in Buddhism: "Are you planning to stand by and watch, and in the end the fishermen will benefit? If Emperor Qin does not die, will you have the face to see the Buddha?
"
Ksitigarbha then said: "Why did Zeng Shen, the almsgiver, say this? It's not that we stood by and watched, but the four poor monks were trapped by the map of the country and the country and were unable to break free for a while."
Zeng Shen had a sneer on his face and said quietly: "Really? A map of the country, mountains and country can actually trap four ancient Buddhas. How about Xiaosheng coming to help you?"
After saying this, Zeng Shen burst out with a powerful aura of awe, but the target was not the Jiangshan Sheji Tu, but the four Ksitigarbha people.
The four Ksitigarbhas looked in disbelief and said, "What does Zeng Shen almsgiver mean by this?"
Zeng Shen didn't say a word, and with great righteousness, he brushed directly towards the four people.
Seeing that Zeng Shen was coming, the four Ksitigarbhas immediately formed seals and chanted sutras incessantly. In front of the great river of righteousness, they easily blocked it with the supreme sutras.
Zeng Shen had a sarcastic look on his face: "It seems that the four Buddhas are not completely exhausted."
The four Ksitigarbhas replied without red faces and without beating hearts: "Since Almsgiver Zeng Shen thinks that the poor monk and others can help, then let's deal with Emperor Qin together as Almsgiver Zeng Shen said."
After saying that, the four of them decisively cut off the connection with their own magic weapons and flew towards the battlefield against Emperor Qin.
Zeng Shen sneered, stepped in front of Lin Ze, and asked in a deep voice with red eyes: "Why don't you order an attack on the city?"
Lin Ze pointed at Yu Ziqi in the distance and replied calmly: "You can see clearly, isn't that an siege?"
Zeng Shen suppressed his anger and said, "Why don't you attack the city with all your troops?"
Lin Ze replied calmly: "The time has not come yet."
Zeng Shen's face darkened, and he exuded a dangerous aura, and said word by word: "When exactly are you going to wait before you are willing to attack with all your troops?"
Lin Ze replied calmly: "When the time comes, of course the whole army will attack."
Zeng Shen narrowed his eyes slightly, and Haoran's righteousness surged out crazily, surrounding Lin Ze and the army: "In my opinion, the timing is right."
Lin Ze turned around and shouted: "Brother, someone is threatening me."
Zeng Shen was just about to speak, but suddenly found himself in a strange environment, with colorful fallen flowers, chirping birds and fragrant flowers. It was quiet and addictive, allowing people to let go of all their worries.
At that moment, Zeng Shen was slightly absent-minded.
But in just a moment, Zeng Shen was shaken, and when he came back to his senses, the picture in front of him collapsed.
When Zeng Shen returned to reality again, the righteousness that had just surged out suddenly dissipated completely.
Zeng Shen looked extremely ugly and said bitterly: "Zhuang Zhou, if you don't deal with Emperor Qin, you attack your allies here. Is this the way your Taoist sect behaves?"
Zhuang Zhou calmly replied: "You were the first to do it."
Zeng Shen said angrily: "I have no intention of attacking him, I just want to force him to send troops."
"Sorry, I can't guess what you are thinking. I only know that my junior brother cannot be harmed." Zhuang Zhou replied seriously.
Zeng Shen was speechless for a moment: "You..."
Zeng Shen, who thought he had been humiliated, looked up to the sky with grief and anger and shouted: "The Taoist sage is above me, and my Confucian disciples are fighting hard in front, but the Taoist palace is standing still. In the face of doubts, it lied that the time has not come yet, and still invites the Taoist sage."
Justice."
Lin Ze was shocked when he saw this. Damn it, this operation is so outrageous.
Not long after Zeng Shen finished speaking, he saw a ruler fall from the sky and hit him hard on the back, followed by an angry shout: "bastard".
Obviously, this was the Confucian sage's punishment for Zeng Shen's disrespect.
Before Lin Ze could rejoice in his misfortune, a thunderbolt fell and struck hard in front of him, and an unquestionable voice emerged: "Send troops immediately, without any excuses."
Dao Sheng also expressed his dissatisfaction with Lin Ze's actions.
It's just that Zeng Shen was slapped for real, and Lin Ze was just warned by the thunder.
What Lin Ze didn't expect was that the Taoist Saints would openly favor him in front of Confucian saints and Buddhas.
Lin Ze decisively gave the order: "The whole army will obey the order and follow Gu to attack the city."
After saying that, Lin Ze took the lead and ran towards Yu Ziqi.
The 140,000 men immediately turned around and followed suit.
Zeng Shen, who had received a blow from the Confucian Sage, stopped in front of Lin Ze and said, "Lin Ze, do you dare to disobey the Taoist Sage's order and lead an army to escape?"
Lin Ze didn't bother to pay attention and directly rode his horse to bypass Zeng Shen and rush over.
Zeng Shen followed him reluctantly, as Lin Ze was determined not to give up until he changed his mind.
Lin Ze said with a cold face: "I am not as good as you in cultivation, but you are not as good as me in leading troops to fight. It is not your turn to comment on what I do. Stay away from me, don't affect my ability to lead the army to attack."
city."
Zeng Shen said angrily: "The city gate is there, where are you going to attack the city?"
Lin Ze rolled his eyes and replied: "Who told you that you can only attack the city gate when attacking a city?"
Zeng Shen was stunned for a moment, stopped where he was, and turned to look in the direction of the city gate. He happened to see the Qin soldiers pouring countless amounts of kerosene on Liu Ji's army and 30,000 monks.
Zeng Shen didn't even have time to issue a warning, as the fire swallowed up the 80,000 people.
What made Zeng Shen both sad and fortunate was that the 80,000-strong army was not completely wiped out. At least 20,000 of the 30,000 monks who were pregnant with golden bodies escaped.
Liu Ji's army was not so lucky. Except for the archers who were far away and some soldiers with higher martial arts training, the rest were all buried in the sea of fire and died in extremely miserable conditions.
To a certain extent, Liu Ji's army of 150,000 men had been completely wiped out.
Zeng Shen looked at Lin Ze's back, and a realization emerged in his heart. No wonder he said that the time had not come yet.
The moment the fire wave ignited, Lin Ze turned his head and took a look, then stopped paying attention.
In his opinion, this was expected.
If others don’t know clearly, why doesn’t he know clearly?
Chang'an City has 200,000 forbidden troops and 30,000 forbidden troops in reserve, all of which can be regarded as elite.
Is Chang'an that easy to fight?
Fifty thousand Liu Ji's army, plus 30,000 monks, can make Chang'an City Gate almost miss. Even a fool knows there is something wrong.
The burning of the coalition forces by the Qin army is proof of this.
In a normal offensive and defensive battle, the defender will face a strong offensive from the attacker for a long time, and will throw kerosene due to excessive pressure to block the attacker's offensive.
But this time it was obviously different. The Qin army arranged at least 50,000 soldiers to throw kerosene. Otherwise, it would be impossible to cover 80,000 people with kerosene in an instant.
From the beginning, the Qin army planned to kill the enemy through fire attacks rather than blocking them.
Lin Ze now only hoped that the Qin State, whose treasury he had emptied once, would not have enough supplies to cover the entire city wall.
It would take a certain amount of time to mobilize the materials and equipment to defend the city. Only by taking advantage of this gap to attack the city wall could Lin Ze possibly break through Chang'an.
Otherwise, with a strong city, elite soldiers and strong generals, plus the Mohist's carefully crafted weapons for defending the city, Lin Ze would not have much confidence in taking Chang'an.
After all, Lin Ze could not be like the Four Confucian Sages who would sacrifice his own luck in order to attack the city.
