.Zhang Chi guessed correctly, what kind of person is Huan Xuan of Jingzhou? He endured his plans for decades and was determined to be the world. How could he be as short-sighted as these ordinary generals in Shu who could only see his toes?

Shu is adjacent to Jingzhou. If the Hu people enter Shu, it will be true that they will lose their lips and teeth will be cold for Jingzhou.

Since the Jin army moved south, the Hu people have been threatening Jiangnan, but because of the two armies of the Northern Prefecture Army and the Jingzhou strong soldiers, they refused to defend the Yangtze River from east to west, so that the Hu people could not go south. After the battle of Feishui, Fu Qin was destroyed.

Yao Qin then rose up and learned from the past, so Yao Qin also changed his attitude towards the Jinshi in the south.

If there is a natural trench in the Yangtze River, you must not attack easily. However, the Hu people will never give up the idea of ​​invading the south and cannot swallow it, so they will instead be elixir.

Therefore, Yao Qin's strategy in recent years is no longer like Fu Jian used to gather troops to attack the river, but instead erode the land of the Jin Dynasty in Jiangbei little by little. Now, he plans to extend his hand into Shu.

Since Huan Wen started to deal with the Hu people, Huan Xuan had certainly understood Yao Qin's strategic ideas, but although he knew that he was very powerless to be eaten by the Hu people in Jiangbei. However, he knew that Shu could never be occupied by the Hu people anymore.

The Hu people occupied the north of the Yangtze River, but if they wanted to cross the river, they could not cross the river easily as long as they were on the river, but if the Hu people captured Shuzhong, the situation would be different: the terrain of Shuzhong is easy to defend but difficult to attack. Although it is adjacent to Jingzhou, the terrain of the upper reaches of the Yangtze River is dangerous. If the Hu people occupy the terrain of Shuzhong and go down the river along the river, it will be difficult to resist.

But on the other hand, if the Hu people first occupied Shuzhong and then the Huan family wanted to invade, it would be far from being so easy.

So it is not for the sake of national justice, not for the people of the world, but for himself, Huan Xuan would never allow the Hu people to invade Shu. In fact, this time, no matter whether the governor of Yizhou sent someone or not, he would send troops to rescue him.

However, Huan Xuan had a deep mind. Even if he sent troops for himself, he would not send troops in vain. He wanted to use this time to send troops to control Shuzhong. So when Shuzhong lost the six counties, he still sat firmly. He was waiting for Shuzhong to invite him into Shuzhong, so that his control Shuzhong would be justified - I didn't expect that you invited me.

Long before the troops were sent, Zhang Chi went to the Yizhou Governor's Mansion to attend a banquet, and he discussed with the Yizhou Governor. For the current plan, if he wanted to defeat the Hu people, he could only ask Huan Xuan for reinforcements in Jingzhou. Of course, the governor of Yizhou would rush to do such a thing - the Huan family and the Huan family dominated Jingzhou for two generations and found Huan Xuan as their backer, so he certainly couldn't get it.

Now the governor of Yizhou, on behalf of the King of Chengdu, asked Huan Xuan to enter Shu. Of course, the two sides hit it off. Huan Xuan immediately sent Huan Heng to Sichuan. On the other hand, Huan Qian sent 100,000 troops to resist the Hu people.

Huan Xuan was the son of Huan Wen, a famous general of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the Duke of Xuanwu of Nanjun. He was appointed Duke of Nanjun at the age of 5. Of course, he did not have to go to the battle in person. He just needed to sit in Jingzhou to give orders.

Huan Wen's younger brother was named Huan Chong, who was Huan Xuan's uncle, and Huan Chong's second son was named Huan Qian. At this time, Huan Qian was ordered to lead 100,000 troops to fight against Hu.

Huan Qian is also known for his caution in using troops. At this time, he only had 100,000 soldiers and horses. Although they were all elite soldiers, he would never fight against the tiger and wolf army of hundreds of thousands of Hu people. At this time, he rode on the horse and asked a monk who was following him, saying, "Master, can you have a clever plan to help our army win?"

The monk was kind-hearted and was about forty years old. He smiled and avoided the truth and turned to the falsehood: "A weapon of a war is the way to kill people. Monks emphasize saving all living beings. How can the general ask us monks how to kill people?"

Seeing that the monk did not answer, Huan Qian also smiled and said, "I only know that the master is a disciple of Master Huiyuan. Now it seems that he is indeed worthy of the name of a monk. I dare not ask for the master's name?"

The monk smiled and said, "I am a monk and Taoist."

"Is the master's Dharma name called by Master Huiyuan?"

Daosheng smiled and shook his head, saying, "I first followed Zhu Fad to become a monk and changed my surname to Zhu. It was only in recent years that I came to Lushan to study with Master Huiyuan. However, Daosheng's name was chosen by me."

"Oh?" Huan Qian asked, "I wonder what the master's name is interpreted?"

"A gentleman is committed to the foundation, and the foundation is established and the Tao is born." Daosheng replied: "When I was young, I wanted to save the world and become a Buddha and a ancestor, but I didn't expect that I would repeatedly encounter walls. It was not until I got older that I finally understood the truth that in this world, I would not understand the truth that haste in this world."

Daosheng continued to explain: "Being a monk is the same as being a human being. You must not be too ambitious. If some basic and fundamental things are not done well, how can you become a Buddha and a ancestor as soon as you become a monk? However, when the fundamental things are done well, the great principles will naturally appear. This is the origin of the name of the "Monk and Taoist generation". A gentleman is committed to the foundation and the Tao is born."

"A good sentence is established and the Tao is born," Huan Qian praised: "But this sentence originally came from the Analects of Confucius. I didn't expect that the master knew Confucian classics well."

The famous scholars of the Wei and Jin Dynasties read "Lao" and "Zhuang", and Confucianism declined, but despite this, many people still studied "The Analects of Confucius".

Daosheng smiled and said, "The three religions of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism are originally of the same origin and prove each other. I naturally have some knowledge of these Confucian Taoist classics."

It is just a humble word from Taosheng. Any monk of this era can be a master of art. Because if Buddhist scriptures are translated literally, they are often obscure and difficult to understand. When explaining Buddhist scriptures, in order to make people understand, monks often borrow Confucian and Taoist scriptures for explanation. Of course, the most borrowed is metaphysics, but Confucian scriptures are also indispensable. This is also one of the reasons why the difference between Theravada Buddhism and other branches of Buddhism is great.

"The master is indeed knowledgeable." Huan Qian smiled.

Daosheng smiled and said, "The general is too famous. In fact, although I have read a few books, it is just to promote Buddhism more conveniently."

People like Daosheng certainly regard him as a role model among Buddhists, but the children of aristocratic families like Huan Qian are puzzled: "Life is only a hundred years, so why should the master work so hard? If you don't have fun in time, wouldn't it be a waste of this hundred years?"

"The Buddha said that the human body is hard to obtain, the Dharma is hard to hear, the Chinese is hard to be born, and the Pure Land is hard to believe. Since you have obtained this life, of course, you must make good use of this life and study the Dharma diligently. In my opinion, getting joy in time is wasting a hundred years of time."

"The master is right," Huan Qian said so, but he may not think so. If the Tao is different and does not plan for each other, why should he argue with a monk? He asked: "What does the master mean when he says 'a human body is hard to obtain'?"

"The Buddha said," Daosheng smiled and raised an example: "In the cold and vast sea, there is a blind turtle. Although this turtle has a longer lifespan than the universe, its eyes are blind. Every hundred years, this blind turtle has the opportunity to float out of the vast sea surface. In the sea, there is a piece of driftwood, and a round hole as big as a turtle's head is dug in the middle of the driftwood. It has come from the ancient times and has been floating and sinking."

"If the blind turtle that only floats out of the water every hundred years, if its pointed head can be pinned into the round hole of driftwood, as long as it gets such a chance, a time and a time, a time and a time, a time and a time, a turtle can gain a human body and see the light again."

"But no matter how vast and endless, where is the driftwood in the sea?"

"Finally, the turtle finally waited for another hundred years and when it floated to the surface, the driftwood finally touched the driftwood. The blind turtle was ecstatic and swam towards the driftwood desperately, pushing its head hard, hoping to embed the holes of the driftwood. But the turtle is blind, how can it find the round holes on the driftwood? Suddenly, a huge wave hit and swept away the driftwood. How many hundred-year opportunities have passed away so lightly."

"The blind turtle fell to the deep seabed again, and the tides came and went. How many hundred years has this blind turtle gone through endlessly?"
