In Dawan City, Zhao Ran witnessed several siege tactics of the Demon Sect, and became even more convinced that the great Western monks in the battle at Jishi Mountain came from the Demon Sect.
Zhao Ran has now reached the perfection of the Void Refining Realm, and can break through the realm and join the Dao at any time. With this cultivation level, he can carefully feel the Demon Sect's military formation and camp, but he cannot feel the aura of the other party's great monk.
He released the Nangui series of unmanned flying instruments, and the Minghua Golden Crystal Cauldron built a real-time breath sensing network in the air sea, trying to find clues from the army, but still found nothing. He was also guessing that maybe the demon army in front of him was just the vanguard, so there was no equivalent of a great monk in Hedao. But according to common sense, a military formation of this size, even if it is only the vanguard, should be staffed by high-level practitioners of the Void Refining Realm, but he still did not find it.
This result probably shows that the opponent's spell is very good at concealing the breath.
Calling Lu Zhi to his side, Zhao Ran said: "The characteristic of your spell is to conceal the breath. Can you detect any clues?"
Lu Zhi waved his fan and said, "I've checked it out a long time ago. It's a bit weird. I can't really feel it."
Zhao Ran waved his hand, and as soon as he turned around, Lu Zhi disappeared without a trace. Qing Jun next to him saw Zhao Ran looking at Mr. Xiao Di again and sighed: "He has never smelled the scent of the other party's Hedao. How do you ask him to find it?"
Looking at Fairy Toad Palace again, a three-inch-long copper pestle was spinning between the five fingers of her right hand. She was staring at the demon army formation below the city, wondering what she was thinking.
Zhao Ran described in detail what he saw and heard in the flying talisman sent to Zhenshitang, and relayed the understanding of the Demon Sect by Buddhist monks and people in the Western Regions. He hopes to tell the true masters through his own perspective that this is an army that brings destruction.
On the fifth day in Dawan, the people of Dawan had already withdrawn one after another. They had withdrawn 200 miles away. The coalition forces stationed in Dawan began to prepare to retreat. Among them, more than 700 wounded soldiers needed to be transferred. This was a big problem in the past. , but not anymore.
Ten MA20s from the Xingqing Branch of Junshan Airlines arrived. It took three round trips to evacuate all the wounded soldiers. At this point, except for more than 2,000 Western Region Allied Forces, there is nothing left in Dawan City. When MA20 flew away with the last batch of wounded soldiers, the defenders in Dawan City breathed a sigh of relief, which also meant that they could retreat.
The commander of the Western Region Allied Forces in the city is the veteran Gu Lebuhun. This man often hung out in the Jinbo Club back then, and was a "husband and dog friend" with "Cheng Dongjia", Ye Li Huaide, Gao Yanei, Liang Xingxia and others. Now he has long understood that back then, The Cheng Dong family is now Hongfa Zhenren, and this has also become his capital to pass on to his descendants and show off his experience.
Gu Lebuhun planned to burn Dayuan and not leave it to the Demon Sect. He reported his intention to Zhi Zhi who accompanied Zhao Ran to the front line. Zhi Zhi clasped his hands together, pronounced the Buddha's name, looked around at this western domain city, and said: "Ten Two years ago, a poor monk came to say goodbye to his friend Wu Ming. Before Wu Ming passed away, he told me that he had been teaching Buddhism here for thirty years and witnessed the prosperity of Dawan Buddhism and the happiness and prosperity of the people, so the poor monk must protect them. . I didn¡¯t expect that today would be destroyed by war"
Just when he was about to force himself to agree, he was interrupted by Zhao Ran: "Master, if you can, don't burn it."
"Gu Lebuhun said: "A real person who promotes Dharma cannot be benevolent as a woman."
Zhao Ran said: "It is good to strengthen the walls and clear the country. When we recover in the future, how long will it take to rebuild? Building a city in the Western Region is not as easy as in the Central Plains. Furthermore, burning the city and withdrawing the troops seems to show determination, but it also lacks confidence. With your performance, don¡¯t you have the confidence to take back this city?¡±
Zhao Ran¡¯s words actually hit the weak point of Buddhism. The momentum displayed by the demon sect¡¯s army, the tactics used, and the attitude of treating life as if it were nothing, dealt a huge blow to Buddhism. Zhizhi and Gu Lebuhun did not dare to tell lies in front of the world-famous Dafa Master, so they could not answer.
Gu Lebuhun suddenly said: "Master Hongfa, Dao Sect, can you send reinforcements? The general has heard about those talisman artillery, can you give us some support?"
Zhao Ran looked at Zhi Zhi and said: "Whether reinforcements can be sent is not counted by me, nor by anyone else. The issue in between is a systemic issue."
Gu Lebhun asked: "What is an institutional problem?"
Zhao Ran said: "Who are the Ming armies fighting for? Why are they fighting? Where to fight? How to get there? Who will supply the military supplies? Who will direct the war? Only when these institutional problems are solved can we talk about reinforcements. Before that, You can only rely on yourselves."
Gu Lebuhun said: "When you were in Loulan, didn't you tell Xia Yuyuan?"
Zhao Ran shook his head: "This is Pindao's personal view, and Pindao is also working hard to promote it, but whether this view can become the view of most of us, and an institutional arrangement can be reached based on this view, we still have no direction. .For example, Gu Le, do you agree with my point of view?"
Zhao Ran pointed at Intelligence: "Master Intelligence, do you agree?"
Zhizhi hesitated for a moment and said: "I personally agree with this, but I cannot represent Tianlongyuan."
Zhao Ran said: "Look, this is the problem."
After a moment of silence, Gu Lebuhun and Zhizhi both sighed, and Zhizhi said: "Listen to Master Hongfa's advice and don't burn it."
Gu Lebuhun said: "Forget it, I'll go down and make arrangements. Please prepare yourself and the master to evacuate tonight."
While he was talking, something happened in the Demon Sect camp outside the city. The camp gate was opened wide, drums and trumpets were blaring, and groups of sergeants came out of the camp and formed an army formation below the city. The military formation was densely covered with stone cannons, ballistas and other magical weapons, slowly advancing. Thousands of cavalry were densely packed in both columns of the military formation, waving scimitars and roaring.
Gu Lebuhun quickly summoned the sergeants to get up and prepare for the battle. This is an attack of unprecedented scale, much more powerful than the previous more than half a month!
This is the last battle for Dawan City. If they can survive this time, the remaining two thousand defenders will be able to retreat at night. If they cannot survive, most of them will die here or be killed on the way to escape.
When everyone was shouting and encouraging each other, preparing to fight to the death, something suddenly changed in front of the demon army array. More than a hundred old, weak, women and children were pushed out, and they were pushed forward, half of them They are all children!
More than a hundred demon sect monks each held magical weapons and followed the people, forcing them to move forward. The only sounds in the array were the cries of children, and all the adults were pale and trembling.
The garrison at the top of the city suddenly fell silent, the air seemed to be stagnant, and no one knew what to do.
A demon sect monk at the forefront shouted to the top of the city in awkward Chinese: "They are all your people, your parents, wives and children. If you want them dead, you just beat them!"
