Ning Chen's idea is actually very simple. Mahayana Buddhism should just let him develop freely.
Qingyuan and Liao Jingyuan are like kites in their hands.
As long as the line of Mahayana Buddhism is kept in one's hands.
How far they fly is within their control.
If you press too hard, the kite may fly away before Mahayana Buddhism can fly very high.
Only the kite string was left, and Ning Chen had to find a new kite.
After all, there are only a few kites that can fly farther and higher.
Qingyuan and Liao Jingyuan, just wait for the flowers to bloom.
And if they don't do anything now, it is a kind of containment to Leiyin Temple.
"If we don't want Leiyin Temple to jump over the wall in a hurry, we can only avoid casualties by striking with thunder and knocking Qi down completely with one blow." Marquis Dingguo continued his analysis.
Ning Chen felt that Marquis Dingguo's analysis was completely nonsense.
Of course Ning Chen understands this truth, but the key is how to do it so that he can knock Leiyin Temple down with one blow.
Marquis Dingguo seemed to sense something and glanced in Ning Chen's direction: "You seem to have objections to my words. Do you have a better way?"
Ning Chen quickly laughed along and said: "Master Hou is joking. This method that Master Hou said is the best method. It is a method that can completely solve the problem in one blow. How can I have a better method?"
Marquis Dingguo did not answer Ning Chen's words, but said something else: "This is not the only solution. If your Mahayana Buddhism can occupy the Western Region overnight, it can be considered a solution."
Ning Chen felt that Marquis Dingguo was addressing his inner complaints just now.
But it is undeniable that the second method mentioned by Marquis Dingguo is indeed a solution.
It's just that this kind of clearly directed plan is more difficult to implement.
Mahayana Buddhism was able to take advantage of the current gap of corpse transformation and quickly develop millions of followers. This has already exploited a big loophole.
As for occupying the entire Western Region overnight, this is obviously impossible.
unless……
Ning Chen suddenly thought of the possibility of Mahayana Buddhism occupying the Western Region overnight.
Of course, it may not be overnight, but the possibility of occupying the Western Region in a very short time.
"What did you think of?" Marquis Dingguo asked when he saw that Ning Chen hadn't spoken for a long time.
Ning Chen sorted out his thoughts and told Marquis Dingguo and others about the idea he had just had, so that they could discuss it.
"If you want Mahayana Buddhism to spread quickly, all the Bodhisattvas in Leiyin Temple will disappear for a period of time.
Without the suppression of these Bodhisattvas, the spread of Mahayana Buddhist scriptures would not be restricted."
Marquis Dingguo thought for a moment and said, "The method you mentioned is indeed a good one.
But have you ever thought about how to make all the Bodhisattvas in Leiyin Temple disappear?"
Ning Chen thought about it for a while and said: "If I am promoted to the double second rank, I will cooperate with the clones of the two of you, the Marquis and the Prince.
In addition to Yun Xuanzi, Zhao Zizhan, Ouyang Qian and my teacher, can we temporarily make all the remaining Bodhisattvas in Leiyin Temple disappear for a while?"
This is what Ning Chen thinks is the strongest lineup of the Wu Dynasty besides Marquis Dingguo and Prince Jing."
After a pause, Ning Chen added: "My teacher and Yun Xuanzi should be not far from the second level.
Yun Xuanzi may reach the second level at any time, and my teacher’s words..."
Ning Chen did not say a time for Kong to offer wine.
Kong Jijiu took the initiative and said, "I can reach the second level at any time."
After listening to Kong Jijiu's words, Ning Chen counted with his fingers: "In this case, counting the clones of the two of you, the prince and the marquis, there will be five second-grade combat powers.
Ouyang Qian and Zhao Zizhan are both top third-grade warriors. If we add two top third-grade martial arts.
If calculated in this way, it can be roughly equivalent to the combat power of seven second-grade soldiers.
The remaining Bodhisattvas in the Western Region are the Bodhisattva Great Concentration, Great Wisdom, Great Practice, Great Power, Great Compassion, Great Compassion, and Great Wisdom.
In terms of the number of second-grade products, we are actually already worthy.
If necessary, I can also call the Ape King, Fox King, and Houchen King from the Ten Thousand Monster Kingdom.
The Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons originally had a grudge against the Western Regions, and the combat power of the three of them was also among the best among the second-tier warriors.
Calculating it this way, our combat power at the second level actually occupies a certain advantage."
After hearing Ning Chen compare their strengths, both Marquis Dingguo and Prince Jing fell silent.
The two people were silent, obviously not because they were surprised by Wu Chao's strength.
The two of them are still aware of Wu Chao's strength.
It's just that this is the first time for them to hear the comparison of the combat power between Wu Dynasty and the Western Regions in such detail.
And this kind of comparison gave them real hope of deciding the outcome with one strike.
"In addition to the second-grade Bodhisattva, the third-grade Arhat is also something you need to consider. What do you think about this?" Prince Jing said to Ning Chen.
"There are thirty-two Arhats in the Western Regions. Excluding Xuan Ku, who has died, there are thirty-one left.
Then the Meng Arhats were considered as people on my side, so there were only thirty Arhats left.
Among the thirty Arhats, there are nine who are close to their longevity. Basically, they will go to see their Buddha as soon as possible.
Therefore, the real available combat power should be twenty-one.
The strength of these twenty-one third-grade Arhats is not even.
There are three at the top, and they are all close to second-grade existences.
The remaining eighteen are only half as powerful.
But as far as I know, these eighteen Arhats seem to have a way to attack together.
At critical moments, the fighting power of a second-grade Bodhisattva can be unleashed.
I think it should be manageable."
Marquis Dingguo said at this time: "I'll ask Fang Xiong to go over and help you."
After Marquis Dingguo finished speaking, he looked at Prince Jing.
That meaning is very clear.
I have already expressed my opinion, and now it is your turn to express my opinion.
Prince Jing was not stingy, he also gave support to Ning Chen, and he also supported a second-grade one.
The marshal on the right side of King Jing is also Zhao Tuo's direct superior.
After a pause, Prince Jing said to Wu Zhao: "Assign all the third-rank soldiers of the capital's imperial army to Ning Chen."
Wu Zhao nodded and agreed simply: "Okay."
Ning Chen didn't expect Prince Jing to play such a big role.
He directly transferred all the third-grade members of the Forbidden Army to himself.
"Actually, I feel that the current manpower is very rich. The third-grade people on the Forbidden Army can stay and protect Wu Zhao. If someone slips through the trap in the Western Region and reaches Fengjing, the Forbidden Army can still kill him." Ning
Chen really felt that mobilizing all three ranks of the Forbidden Army was a bit too risky.
Ning Chen thought so, but Prince Jing's idea was very extreme: "Once this plan is implemented, it can only succeed and cannot fail.
If it fails, the consequences will be endless.
So you must ensure that none of the Bodhisattvas and Arhats in the Western Region can escape.
Since we want to achieve such a goal, we must go all out.”
Seeing that Ning Chen still wanted to say something for himself, Wu Zhao took the initiative and said: "Even if the third-level Imperial Guard is not in the city, it actually doesn't matter.
With all the formations in Jingzhong activated, even if a first-grade enemy comes, they can withstand it for a long time.
And with Sun Banban and the others by my side, they can also resist all attacks below the second level."
After comforting Ning Chen, Wu Zhao continued: "And I think Uncle Jing is right. Now that we have decided, we must win with one blow, otherwise, there will be endless troubles."
Now that Wu Zhaodu has decided, Ning Chen naturally has nothing to object to.
Besides, Prince Jing and Wu Zhao were right to worry.
This time the plan can only succeed and cannot fail.
If they fail, the Bodhisattvas and Arhats of Leiyin Temple will definitely give up all their bottom lines.
At that time, Wu Chao will be in trouble.
On the contrary, if Mahayana Buddhism really takes the opportunity to occupy the entire Western Region.
That would be a devastating blow to the entire rule of Leiyin Temple.
The holy path of Theravada Buddhism will be weakened to its weakest level.
Even if these Bodhisattvas in Leiyin Temple want to abandon the bottom line and attack the Wu Dynasty, the combat power they can exert will be greatly reduced.
And at that time, their main energy must be on Mahayana Buddhism to occupy the Western Regions, but they did not have such energy to deal with the Wu Dynasty.
"Prince Jing and I will prepare the immortal material for you as soon as possible. For the second grade Confucian, you can only rely on yourself.
When you are promoted to the second level of Shuang, the plan will be launched immediately.
Taking advantage of the certainty of the Western Region, we dare not take the opportunity to attack Leiyin Temple and immediately carry out Operation Thunder." Marquis Dingguo directly set a timetable for the plan.
This suddenly made Ning Chen feel a little nervous.
Originally, Ning Chen just mentioned an idea for everyone to discuss.
As a result, this step of discussion was passed directly.
Everyone even determined the time for the attack.
Things have come to this point, and it seems too inappropriate for Ning Chen to tell everyone to slow down.
And if the problem in the Western Region can be solved with one risk, it would be a good thing for Ning Chen.
Regarding Mahayana Buddhism, sooner or later the Western Region will have a decisive battle with itself.
Instead of waiting for them to come to you, it is better to take the initiative and solve the problem first.
Being proactive is always better than being passive.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, Lord Marquis, Confucian. I will ask my teacher for advice later. Regarding other matters, Your Majesty and Lord Marquis, please help me with my strategy and see if there are any details that need to be added." Ning Chen asked
Marquis Dingguo and Prince Jing thanked him.
Regarding Ning Chen's request for military promotion, neither Marquis Dingguo nor Prince Jing refused.
After all, this time is a battle that will overwhelm the country.
The Wu Dynasty had suppressed most of their family fortune.
If it fails, the consequences will be really serious.
Apart from anything else, first of all, the luck of approaching Bading is definitely not guaranteed.
If the adjustment is not good, it will directly fall back to around five tripods, or even five tripods may not be there at all.
Because when the time comes, the barbarians will definitely take the opportunity to attack the Wu Dynasty crazily.
In case the barbarians break in, and there are some big changes in the Western Region.
Luck may directly return to two or three tripods.
At the same time, the Wu Dynasty may be directly beaten to pieces.
When external troubles are combined with various internal strife, the consequences will be truly unimaginable.
Therefore, even Marquis Dingguo and Prince Jing would take such a battle very seriously.
In terms of understanding the Western Regions and leading troops to fight, the two of them are still much more experienced than Ning Chen.
Most of Ning Chen's experience is based on paper talks.
Although Ning Chen did a lot of things like making small fuss.
But in this kind of battle that would overwhelm the country, Ning Chen still knew his own weight very well.
Of course, execution ability is another matter.
After the plan for the Western Region was decided, Marquis Dingguo, Prince Jing and Wu Zhao all quit the group chat, leaving the remaining space to Ning Chen and Kong Jijiu.
"Teacher, please tell the students the difference between the third grade and the second grade?" Ning Chen respectfully asked Kong Jijiu for advice.
Kong Jijiu still knew everything about Ning Chen, a student: "Three levels of destiny means that you have officially embarked on the Confucian holy path.
But at this time, you are just a passerby on the holy path.
But once you reach the second level, you are no longer just a passerby on the holy path.
You can borrow many of the methods left behind by thousands of people on the holy path."
Ning Chen's eyes lit up after hearing Kong Jijiu's words: "Can we borrow the means left by everyone?"
Kong Jijiu nodded: "Okay."
Hearing Kong Jijiu's tone, Ning Chen knew what he was going to say next.
Sure enough, Kong Jijiu changed the topic and said: "However, this is not without cost.
Although you can borrow some methods from the Holy Path based on the merits you have achieved.
But this borrowed method will also consume your efforts.
Once all the work you have done is used up, your cultivation will go back.
At the same time, if you borrow means that you cannot afford, it will have a great impact on your Confucianism."
After Kong Jijiu finished speaking, Ning Chen asked after a while: "Teacher, is that all?"
Kong Jijiu asked, "What else do you hope for?"
Ning Chen muttered, "I thought that if I borrowed more energy than my own gong, my body would be taken away directly?"
Kong Jijiu listened to Ning Chen's mutterings and said seriously: "Confucianism and Taoism are the majestic and righteous holy way. How could there be a robbery? Such a situation will not happen in Confucianism and Taoism."
Confucianism and Taoism are indeed fair and upright.
Even if it is such a borrowing that exceeds one's ability, it will ultimately only cause a regression in cultivation and have an impact on Confucianism.
Such a thing as seizing one's body will never happen.
After a pause, Kong Jijiu suddenly thought of something, and added: "There is a more hidden drawback to using such a method.
If you borrow too much, you will be influenced by the other party's Confucianism.
It may shock you to the first level and cause a lot of trouble."
"Teacher, what is the first grade of Confucianism?" Since Kong Jijiu mentioned Ning Chen, he asked casually.
Kong Jijiu said: "The first level of Confucianism is a sub-sage. It needs to establish its words. It needs to establish the words of the holy way. Establish your own words and let your words become part of the holy way."
"Do you want to make a statement?" After hearing Kong Jijiu's words, Ning Chen couldn't help but touch it.
"If it's just a statement, then in fact, if I borrow the abilities of others above the Holy Path, it will not affect my first rank at all. Anyway, my first rank is also exchanged."
Kong Jijiu didn't know what Ning Chen was thinking, but Kong Jijiu still believed that Ning Chen would not joke with his life.
"Teacher, what is the standard for reaching the second level?" Ning Chen thought for a while and continued to ask.
