Chapter 122 The Great Wizard (Part 2)

"But, I failed to submit to him again and again. He was only twenty years old. I could not stand him," Chodun Shanyu woke up a little drunk. He didn't care about Zuo Guduhou's presence. Everyone knew the conflict between him and the great wizard. The Han people could not have two kings, and the Huns could not have two kings. If the great wizard was only willing to be responsible for such noble duties as sacrifices and divination, then it would be fine. However, the great wizard frequently intervened in military and political affairs. Everyone knew that the conflict between the two would sooner or later. At this time, those who could stand in the team had already stood up.

"You still have a son, a son and a grandson. He is a great wizard and an envoy of the Heaven of Eternal Life. He will not have children with women in the mortal world. Sooner or later, he will be summoned away by the Heaven of Eternal Life." The Right King advised him again. He finally saw that the Huns are growing more and more prosperous, and he will never be willing to cause internal strife due to the struggle for power and lead the Huns to division.

"Well" Chodun Shanyu shook his heavy head and woke himself up. He looked at Zuo Guduhou who was half-kneeling below and said in a urn, "You go and report to the great wizard, I will transfer 300,000 elite cavalry to him, but it will take at least three months. Now the other ten thousand cavalry captains are still grazing in their pastures, so they can't come so quickly."

"Yes, King Shanyu, I will report to the great wizard like this." Zuo Gudu Houchepu, after bowing a while, then slowly retreated.

…………………

In the golden tent of the great wizard, Zuogudu Houchepu reported the words of the Huns King Cuodun Shanyu to the great wizard intact.

"Oh, it seems that King Shanyu is going to be a different person. I think you are very good," said the young man lying on the precious felt, the great wizard with the highest status in the eyes of the Huns, as if nothing had happened, "How about the Shanyu, the Hou of Chepugudu?"

"Thank you for the grace of the great wizard," Che Pu had known the great wizard's character for a long time. What he said was carved into a stone and would not be changed. He would happily accept the reward he gave him.

"Okay, if you recover those devils this time, I will hold a meeting of the Huns and let someone recommend you as the New Shanyu."

"But the position of Shanyu has always been passed down from father to son, or brother to brother, I am afraid I don't have that title." Che Pu knelt on the ground, although he was happy and accepted the grace, he still raised difficulties.

"When I regained those people, the position of Shanyu in the future will be designated by me for Changshengtian," the young man said confidently.

"Yes, the noble great wizard, no matter how fast the horse runs, you must submit to your orders. No matter how high the eagle flys, you must whistle in front of you. Those devils will definitely obey your orders." Zuo Gudu Houchepu praised devoutly that being able to be on the Shanyu position was the expectation of all the Xiongnu families on the grassland for countless years, and he was no exception. As for the end, he still had to obey the orders of the great wizard, and he did not care much about the prestige of the Shanyu, because he was not the Great wizard, so he didn't care too much. The Great wizard was a magnanimous person and never treated loyal people.

…………

In Chongming Temple under Ling Chen, ten thousand people he brought in, one of them was not dead, and there were two thousand good horses. Ling Chen was happy about this and was also a little confused. Before, when Ling Qi entered, there were 250 people. The first small-scale battle was killed by accident. He organized thousands of people, and two head-on conflicts and two night attacks. One person was not dead, at most, only minor injuries. Although this can be said to be because the individual has too much strength advantage, he always feels that it is not that simple behind it.

Without time to investigate the reason behind this, he quickly sent someone to organize the reconstruction of the village and quickly established an early warning system. The subordinate temples of Chongming Temple, Chongzhen, Chongyang and Chonghua, are three branch temples distributed in a radius of hundreds of miles nearby, and can be regarded as branches of Chongming Temple.

Using these three affiliated temples, this early warning system can concentrate villagers to the temple to resist after discovering the enemy. In this way, the main temple is responsible for expelling the enemy. They are responsible for supplying food, water and camping sites, and echoing each other, and become a solid stronghold. Since the field war is not afraid of the Huns, it can be imagined that unless a large-scale Huns attack, you can rest assured.

As for preaching, Ling Chen has been a monk for ten years and has a deep understanding of the meaning of Buddhist scriptures, which is enough to cope with his usual tasks. After all, he is a Buddhist master with a background in a scientist, so he has slightly corrected the meaning of the scriptures, which is to allow Buddhists to realize the Buddha nature and Buddha mind by exploring the actual behavior of the world. Everything has Buddha nature, but how to prove it is to rely on empty words and vernacular words, and only through normal logical means can we be persuasive and not violate the Buddhist scriptures. In fact, Buddhism has never stopped people from investigating things and seeking knowledge.

This is just a foreshadowing he laid out. If he wants to take root, he must take dozens or hundreds of years of hard work. This is not a way to complete the camp tasks in the short term.

These days, apart from preaching, he was more busy arranging the surrounding military and repairing civil affairs. The land of dozens of villages nearby was all temples. The court in this battle world had given them temples, and they did not pay rent and taxes or do not perform corvee service. Of course, this was a border, and there was no strong court institution to take care of them.

To be honest, Ling Chen felt that the identity arranged by the battle world did not fit the world very well. There was a great sense of inconsistency and abruptness, far from the coordination that Ling Qi entered twice before. He suspected that this was caused by his own particularity. After all, he was not the soul consciousness of this era, and he opened the door alone to enter.

However, he has no time to consider these things now. His main task is to take root first.

The early warning system has been arranged and soon played a role.

Three months passed without realizing it. On this day, an alarm suddenly broke out and a wolf smoke lit up.

While training, the monks and soldiers who were busy farming nearby immediately gathered at Chongming Temple.

Two thousand cavalry and eight thousand infantry, the cavalry used the Huns' bows and arrows and straight swords. In addition to half of the infantry gathered together, each of them also carried five sharpened short sticks and a wooden shield made of door panels. Compared to the first time, the weapons can be said to have been armed to their current limits.

Ling Chen stood on the high tower of the temple and looked from a distance. The sky to the west was dark, as if it was caused by a large area of ​​smoke and dust.

"The number must be more than 100,000. Only this scale can create such a scene and be seen in such a distance."

He estimated the approximate number, and the early warning system could provide more than three days of buffering, that is, according to the ordinary marching speed of the Hun cavalry, it would take more than three days to reach Ling Chen's territory after the warning was issued. According to the actual distance, it would take about two or three hundred kilometers to be a distance of about two or three hundred kilometers. At such a long distance, the traces of the movement of the large army were discovered through the changes in the sky on the tower. It was also a unique skill that Ling Chen had trained to enter the battle world many times in his previous life.

"Order the monks and people from the other three temples to gather in this temple, and then eight thousand infantry defend with danger. I will lead two thousand cavalry to stop them first. You will further activate the trap and strengthen defense."

Ling Chen gave an order to the monk beside him and led the two thousand cavalry gathered in advance to attack.
