He was worried that if there was an ambush in the city, if he entered rashly at this moment, he would fall into the enemy's trap.

So Wu Jinzhi chose a very safe method.

Eighteen hundred people were left behind and retreated two miles to monitor the situation in the city.

The remaining two hundred people went back to report the situation on their side to Zhao Tuo of the Chinese Army.

Please ask Zhao Tuo and the others to speed up a little. When the army arrives, he can bypass the city and continue to explore the way forward.

That's right.

From the beginning to the end, Wu Jinzhi never thought about entering the city.

As long as you enter the city, you may face various risks.

So the best way is not to go into the city at all.

Continue to serve as your own vanguard.

After waiting for about half a day, Zhao Tuo finally led the army to surround them.

After handing over with Zhao Tuo, Wu Jinzhi led his men, replenished food and grass, bypassed the city and continued towards the next city.

Wu Jinzhi was heading towards the second city.

But Wu Tuizhi was already forced to the place where the decisive battle was arranged by Dazhi Bodhisattva.

Faced with the monk who came to ask how to fight next.

The expression on the supply arhat's face was also very unspeakable.

Judging from the current situation.

The vanguard camp of Wu Tuizhi's vanguard camp has separated from the vanguard camp behind it, about eighty miles away.

And this distance continues to expand.

Now it is no exaggeration to say that the more than 2,000 city defense troops led by Wu Tuizhi were a lone army. That is absolutely not an exaggeration at all.

Facing such a lone army, capturing them and then killing them should actually be the optimal solution.

Especially now, the Buddhist Kingdom in the Western Regions indeed needs a battle even more.

And the battle against Wu Dynasty still had to be defeated.

Therefore, taking down such a lone army is the best choice.

Especially the Moko City he was approaching now was the place where he was originally preparing for a decisive battle with the Wu Dynasty.

Facing the monk's report, the supplying Arhat thought carefully for a long time before finally making a decision.

Ying Gongluo told the monks: "The two thousand people who broke away from the main force are most likely the vanguard of our actions to test our actions.

If you really encounter them, you can choose to let them go.

Wu Chao must not be allowed to figure out our arrangements now."

"yes."

After the monk agreed, he turned around and left the temple to convey the decree of offering arhats to the heads of one hundred and eight Buddhist kingdoms.

According to the vision of Great Wisdom Bodhisattva.

He would attack the Wu Dynasty's army on the way.

Therefore, the kings of the one hundred and eight Buddhist kingdoms were notified and dispatched two-thirds of their troops to gather in Moko City.

Moko City was located in the middle of the Wu Dynasty's offensive route.

Moko City is surrounded by mountains on both sides, and the city is located in the middle of the two mountains.

Directly opposite is a large plain.

Easy to defend but difficult to attack.

This is the place chosen by Dazhi Bodhisattva for the best decisive battle.

All monk soldiers dispatched from the Buddhist Kingdom must hide after entering Moko City.

No breath should be revealed.

At the same time, all the monk soldiers who came here brought their own food.

In this way, there will be no significant increase in the supply of food in Moko City.

It can also confuse the Wu Dynasty's army.

As long as the Wu Dynasty army arrives, the decisive battle will begin immediately.

This is the great plan and policy set by the Great Wisdom Bodhisattva.

Supplying Luohan felt that for just two thousand people, it was not worth exposing their true strategic intentions like this.

Therefore, when Wu Tuizhi led his two thousand vanguard troops to arrive at Moko City, they passed through Moko City smoothly without much effort.

After passing through Moko City, Wu Tuizhi still had no intention of retreating or stopping to rest.

Instead, he asked people to quickly send the situation in Moko City back to the back.

Then he continued to advance forward.

The news brought back by Wu Tuizhi was sent upwards layer by layer until it was delivered to Ning Chen.

Looking at the information sent over, Ning Chen felt as if he had overlooked something.

The whole thing didn't seem to be going right, it seemed a little too smooth.

Ning Chen did not give up on his idea, but shared his idea with Zhao Tuo.

After Zhao Tuo listened to Ning Chen's thoughts, he also realized that things seemed to be going too smoothly.

Zhao Tuo immediately ordered the army to stop temporarily and rest at the second Buddhist city in the Western Regions that was attacked.

Zhao Tuo, Ning Chen and Xu Muzhi discussed and exchanged opinions together through the jade slips.

After listening to Ning Chen's analysis, Zhao Tuo and Xu Muzhi also discovered the problem.

Wu Tuizhi's route was indeed too smooth.

According to Wu Tuizhi's current marching speed, this is completely standard equipment for a lone army.

Being able to pass through one or two Buddhist cities is not surprising.

But now, Wu Tuizhi was almost lying on his back all the way, which was very unexpected.

They didn't quite believe that the Buddhist Association of the Western Regions would not be able to discover the fact that Wu Tuizhi was a lone army.

But now that everything has been discovered, the Western Regions are still going their own way and letting Wu Tuizhi do what he wants.

This is very problematic.

Facing Wu Dynasty's Western Expedition, what the Buddhist Kingdom in the Western Regions needs most now is a victory.

Even though the scale of this victory was very small, only two thousand people.

As long as it is a victory, it is enough for the Buddhist country in the Western Regions.

It is enough to stabilize the morale of the military and at the same time it is enough to stabilize the morale of the people.

It can also, to a certain extent, counter the Mahayana Buddhism spread in Qingyuan.

After all, if you preach Mahayana Buddhism, there is no way you can defeat your opponent.

In reality, Mahayana Buddhism is inferior to Hinayana Buddhism.

This is obviously a good thing that can achieve multiple goals with one stone, but the Buddhist country in the Western Regions did not even respond in any way.

Just watching helplessly, these two thousand fat men were running around freely on their territory. This was completely illogical.

So if this is the current situation, there are two possible explanations.

First, the Buddhist Kingdom of the Western Regions really plans to place the location of the decisive battle in temples in core areas such as Daleiyin Temple.

Secondly, the Buddhist Kingdom in the Western Regions plans to fight, but the place for their decisive battle is no longer in a core area like the Great Leiyin Temple.

But it was in a place that Ning Chen and the others didn't notice.

The first possibility is unlikely, so everyone just rules it out.

The second possibility is the greatest.

As for the location, there are only a few suitable locations.

After confirming this matter, Xu Muzhi suggested calling directly.

Taking advantage of their unstable footing, attack directly and forcefully.

"Don't be anxious, continue to move forward step by step according to our plan." Ning Chen stopped Xu Muzhi who was about to rush past.

Zhao Tuo thought for a while and agreed to Ning Chen's suggestion.

Ning Chen, the coach, spoke, and Zhao Tuo, the general who executed it, had no objection.

The only thing we can do is to continue to move forward step by step.
