This Qing is wrong

Chapter 207 Galdan was crushed to death

In the summer of the seventh year of Wuwei, outside the Buddhist holy mountain in the Western Regions, tens of thousands of troops surrounded the holy mountain, and Galdan's commander-in-chief rose into the sky with a murderous aura.

After more than half a year of fighting, the secular army in the Western Regions was ruthlessly defeated by Ge Erdan.

Once again, it proved how unbearable the combat effectiveness of the Buddhist army...

Some people may wonder.

Galdan's army also believed in Buddhism, why did they kill Buddhists without hesitation?
The reason is very simple. Ge Erdan is now the Great Lama of the Snowy Region, and he and his army believe in the Theravada Buddhism of the Snowy Region.

As a result, many people in the Western Regions are not too disgusted with Galdan's invasion. For most people in the Western Regions, it is difficult to distinguish the difference between Mahayana Buddhism and Theravada Buddhism. They mainly believe in the theory of reincarnation.

As long as they can continue to believe in Buddhism, they don't care whether they are talking about the Bodhisattvas of the Holy Mountain or the warmonger Galdan.

"Holy Mountain, Ben Khan is here again. I didn't expect Ben Khan to come in such a posture this time."

Galdan looked at the tall holy mountain towering into the sky in the distance, with a complex expression on his face.

He still remembered the excitement brought to him by Mantian Bodhisattva and Arhat when he first came to the holy mountain.

If he had a choice, he really didn't want to attack the holy mountain.

However, compared to the invincible demon war puppets, Gerdan feels that the Holy Mountain is easier to deal with...

Facing the two extraordinary forces, Galdan could only choose the one that seemed weak.

That's right, in Galdan's eyes, the Buddhist holy mountain is not generally weaker than Li Changqing's demon method.

However, when Ge Erdan surrounded the holy mountain, there was always a sense of uneasiness in his heart.

This does not appear for nothing.

When Ge Erdan conquered the secular army in the Western Regions, he found that the "eminent monks" in the major cities and towns in the Western Regions had left early.

Even ordinary Zen masters with relatively high cultivation levels were nowhere to be seen. Asked those city residents, they all said that those eminent monks went to the holy mountain.

What the Holy Mountain did was definitely not simply to let the eminent monks take refuge, because all fools knew that the final destination of Galdan's conquest of the Western Regions was the Holy Mountain!

All the eminent monks fled to the holy mountain, wouldn't it be a chance for Galdan's army to catch a turtle?
Galdan, who had witnessed so many bodhisattvas and arhats, would not naively think that those with high cultivation bases were all brain-dead and slaughtered on the holy mountain.

So, what is in the holy mountain?
Ge Erdan knew that he was being used by Li Changqing, but he had no choice. This is the tragedy of the weak.

If he doesn't obey Li Changqing's order, not only will he lose his position, but he may even lose his life!

Ge Erdan felt that he could live for a long time, and he didn't want to die too early...

In order to live better for myself, I can only invite Buddhist Bodhisattvas and Arhats to die.

Ge Erdan was well aware of the extermination of Buddhism within the territory of the Tang Empire, and even the Buddhist temples in the Snow Region were expelled. This was no small feud against the always strong Western Region Buddhism.

In disputes of faith, there can often only be one boss.

On the other hand, Li Changqing is also a domineering master, so Gerdan knows that his gun is destined, and he must do well to have a future.

Gerdan looked at the gunners in front of the formation, who were setting up the old artillery and preparing to shell the holy mountain.

At the foot of the holy mountain, there is no monk, only the closed gate.

The holy mountain is a very strange mountain, it is just a lonely mountain, the surrounding terrain is not steep, and this mountain seems to have been man-made, only one mountain road can go up, and the rest of the direction is almost straight.

Can't climb at all.

As a matter of course, this mountain road is blocked by a wall and a mountain gate at the foot of the mountain.

It is not closed on weekdays, but now that it is surrounded by the army, it is naturally impossible to open it.

The mountain gate and the wall were the targets of shelling by Gerdan's troops.

The fence and mountain gate are not real city walls, even old artillery can be bombarded.

Before firing the cannon, Gerdan suddenly saw the scene in front of him dim. He looked around suspiciously and saw a large cloud appearing over the holy mountain at some point.

It was just such a large cloud that blocked the sun.

The next moment, a scene that terrified Galdan appeared. The floating clouds gradually condensed together, turning into a strange pillar with a thick top and a thinner back.

Obviously, illiterate people know that normal floating clouds do not take this shape.

"How is this going?

Change?

Or damnation? ! "

Galdan stared in horror at the peak of the holy mountain, and saw a piece of golden light already blooming there, and the golden light rushed straight into the depths of the floating clouds in the sky, as if controlling the condensed floating clouds.

This move is really no different from a fairy!

At the same time, on the top of the holy mountain, all the bodhisattvas, arhats, and even the sleeping Buddhist masters of the past dynasties all looked serious, with their eyes closed, and sat down in mysterious and mysterious positions, covering the top of the holy mountain. The lower the realm.

Suddenly, the bodhisattvas sitting in the central area shouted in unison.

"Please Buddha punish the villains!"

The next moment, the floating cloud condensed into a columnar body suddenly fell towards the position where the commander-in-chief Gerdan was.

This is really hard to defend against... Oh no, there is no way to defend against it.

By the time Ge Erdan hastily urged his horse to run, it was too late.

The condensed columnar cloud was like a giant missile formed by the condensed water droplets, crashing into the position where the commander-in-chief Gerdan was standing.

Everyone within a range of several hundred meters was inserted into their bodies by the blasted ice crystals, turning them into blood men.

The physical body of the floating cloud is water droplets, which condense into ice crystals. Under the acceleration of huge inertial kinetic energy and metaphysical kinetic energy, the explosion effect produced when it falls to the ground turns all living people within hundreds of meters into sieves.

Natural persons included Ge Erdan and his personal guards and even senior generals!
The tens of thousands of troops were in an uproar, and the gunners who were about to bombard the front line left their gun positions and fled in all directions.

Among them, the devout ones knelt down directly, put their hands together, and chanted 'Amitabha Buddha' nervously.

Although the extraordinary power of this world is no longer news, such celestial phenomena are still enough to shatter the beliefs of these troops.

Except for the soldiers who knelt down to worship Buddha, the rest of the soldiers had no intention of fighting anymore. When everyone found that Galdan had turned into a corpse, the confidants of the Zhungeer Department frantically fled the place with their own troops.

In this regard, the tens of thousands of troops are self-defeating!
In the end, only the kneeling soldiers who joined later and were convinced by the Buddhism in the Western Regions remained.

Not long after, the gate of the holy mountain opened wide, and eminent monks representing the Buddhist sects of the Western Regions came to the kneeling soldiers and helped them up one by one.

The thousands of kneeling soldiers left behind became the pawns of the Holy Mountain.

Next, in less than half a month, the towns in the Western Regions that Galdan had brought down were taken back one after another by the soldiers who had just received from the Holy Mountain, and they expanded their territory to the snow-covered plateau before stopping.

As for the Zhungeer tribe, they fell into internal strife because of Galdan's death.

The Zhungeer Ministry, which suffered heavy losses one after another, inevitably declined amid civil strife.

The reason why the Bodhisattvas and Arhats on the holy mountain do not leave the holy mountain is not only because of the enlightenment of Buddhism, but also because there is a formation that has been strengthened by Buddhism in the past dynasties on the holy mountain, which can gather the power of Buddhist eminent monks, and there is no upper limit on the number !
No matter how many sleeping Buddhist eminent monks there are, they are not enough to die against an army of tens of thousands armed with guns, but if they can gather their strength, they can unleash a celestial attack.

Using floating clouds as an attack method is not the only move of the Holy Mountain, it is just because it is easier to break the morale of Galdan's army.

Being attacked by celestial phenomena and losing the commander-in-chief of Galdan, the Holy Mountain knew that it would be self-defeating based on the quality of the troops gathered by Galdan.

The only flaw of the holy mountain is that it cannot be moved, it can only be used for self-protection...

However, this battle was still spread by the Buddhist sect of the Holy Mountain. One moment, the entire Western Region was immersed in the shadow of the terrifying force of the Tang Empire, and the next moment it was cheering for the Buddha's manifestation.

Even many shallow Buddhist believers have turned into pious believers, firmly believing that the Tathagata Buddha is real, and that the Western Paradise of Ultimate Bliss is also a holy place for Buddhists after death.

The speed of news transmission in this era is very slow. By the time Li Changqing, the emperor of the Tang Empire, heard the news of the holy mountain's power, the Zhungeer tribe had been destroyed, and the Western Regions had returned to the glory of the Buddha.

Xueyu Buddhism and Li Ergou are ready to fight, and the army is lined up on the border of the plateau to prevent the army of Buddhists who are becoming more and more fanatical from attacking.

The power of the Holy Mountain has increased the number of fanatical Buddhists in the Western Regions, and the Holy Mountain has also sent eminent monks who are familiar with the secular rules to personally serve as the commanders of those troops.

After continuous wars in the Western Regions, the original country has long ceased to exist. At this time, even if the Holy Mountain hates the worldly things, it has to send people to clean up the political system of the Western Regions.

After Buddhism in the Western Regions integrated all parts of the Western Regions, it felt that after the holy mountain became powerful this time, no one in the Western Regions dared to question the authority of Buddhism. At the same time, to save trouble, they simply established a country that unified the Western Regions.

In the formulation of the country name, Buddhism in the Western Regions misses the Daliao Dynasty in the Western Regions when Buddhism was regarded as a country, and the Central Plains called it Xiliao.

It was because of a violent beating by the Jurchens that a group of remnants fled to the unified country established in the Western Regions.

The land area of ​​Xiliao was not small back then, and its national power was also very tyrannical. If it hadn't been for the monstrous Mongol Empire that rushed out after being polished in the room of East Asian monsters, Xiliao would not have been destroyed so quickly.

Of course, people in the Western Regions would not call themselves Xiliao. The Holy Mountain restored the rule of Daliao, found a fanatical Buddhist with the same surname as the Daliao royal family, and established himself as the emperor of Daliao.

At this point, the Daliao Empire reappeared on this land.

The Holy Mountain of the Western Regions included all the land in the Daliao Empire, starting from the Kazakh grassland in the west, reaching the snow-covered plateau in the east, bordering the Himalayas in the south, and connecting with the Wanli Ice Field in the north!
In terms of land area alone, the Daliao Empire at this time is enough to be called a world-class power.

It's a pity that the Daliao Empire is large but not strong, with a sparse population, and most of its territory is a desert area where there are no living people. At this time, there is no Silk Road to supply the land of the Western Regions. The Tang Empire is still poor...

Of course, Holy Mountain doesn't care!

In the philosophy of Buddhism, there is also the saying that hard work in this life will bring blessings in the next life. Under the belief of Buddhism, the people at the bottom of the Western Regions are still able to endure hardships.

Galdan did not die in vain. His death promoted the unification of the Western Regions. The Holy Mountain, who was in charge of the ruins all day long, would not bother to integrate the Western Regions and establish a unified empire.

The highly cultivated monks on the holy mountain are just like nerds. If they didn't need to eat, drink and sleep, they would have lived in seclusion without caring about worldly affairs.

It's a pity that monks not only need to eat, drink, and sleep, they also need various material support for their cultivation, and they must never be separated from the secular world.

There must be support from the secular government, so that the holy mountain can continuously produce eminent monks.

When the Daliao Empire was established, apart from fanatical beliefs, it can be said that it was poor and empty.

The weapons they used were left over from the original war, and they didn’t even have the ability to forge firearms. All the artillery owned by the so-called Liao army combined, no more than ten, were all spoils brought by Galdan back then...

The proportion of firearms in the army is less than 5.00%, and the armor rate is less than [-]%...

Even the number, including surrendered soldiers and fanatics, the official Liao army is less than 2...

This is the so-called Great Liao Empire.

However, because the attack from the Holy Mountain was too terrifying, Li Ergou and Xueyu Plateau's assessment of the combat power of the Buddhist sects in the Western Regions was inflated. Tens of thousands of Chen soldiers were at the border, but they did not dare to take a step beyond the thunder pool, for fear that after entering the Western Regions, they would be killed again. Being smashed down by a big pillar on the holy mountain...

That big pillar may have limited lethality, but the ability to precisely locate it is truly frightening.

There is no general who is not afraid of this kind of fighting method that directly removes his own head.

After Li Changqing learned the news, he handed over the task of training Japanese mercenaries to others, and rushed to the snowy plateau with the Holy Maiden Secretariat.

Of course, Li Changqing did not come alone, he brought all the guards over to protect his safety.

The impact of the Holy Mountains in the Western Regions on the national power of the Tang Empire was negligible, but the impact on the majesty of the Tang Empire should not be underestimated. This was the first time that the Tang Empire was completely defeated in an external conquest.

Everyone is waiting for Li Changqing to make a move, after all, that's what he did in the past.

If Li Changqing doesn't make a move at this time, the people below will inevitably suspect that there is something wrong with Li Changqing's ability to summon the war puppets?

Otherwise, why would they remain indifferent to such provocations from the holy mountains of the Western Regions?
Naturally, Li Changqing wouldn't just sit back and watch the world he had just conquered become turbulent, after all, he didn't know what would happen after the system unlocked the fifth stage.

Therefore, Li Changqing must solve the problem of the holy mountain in the Western Regions.

Anyway, my personal prestige is shaken, and sooner or later I will use No. 20 system enemy deployments, and the fifth stage will still be unlocked by then, so it is better to leave this opportunity to the holy mountains of the Western Regions.

　It will be the fifth stage soon!
