Riding on a rouge horse, Chen Tangfeng returned to the prefecture yard in a hurry. With an order, officials from all over the world came to have a meeting.

This team was promoted by Chen Tang. Except for a few "old men" such as Gu Heng, others were all given the opportunity to enter the officialdom because Chen Tang took office. It is not that they have no ability, but that the dynasty system has been long-lasting and the solidification of the class has caused many good talents to lose their channels to stand out and have not received talent. Now, they can become officials in politics and work hard like chicken blood.

Not long after, Taoist Fu Chen from Fushan Temple brought Zhan Yangchun, the abbot of Jinchan Temple, and several old monks of the Leyuan Lesheng, all came and attended the hall.

Seeing this, everyone secretly speculated that they didn't know what had happened.

Sitting in the main seat, Chen Tang glanced at him, and was not angry but powerful, and then said loudly: "Do you know the demon?"

Hearing the word "demon", the whole hall was in an uproar.

Those who can be selected to serve in the state office will not be ordinary people who are illiterate, but scholars who are well-read and knowledgeable. Even though they have never dealt with demons, they have never eaten pork or seen pigs running. They have heard of the taboo-like existence.

As for Taoist Fuchen, those who are different from the world and have cultivation skills, of course they know it. This is also because they immediately rushed to the prefecture office as soon as they received the invitation. Where would they come in person for ordinary affairs? Just send a representative of their disciples to walk.

Chen Tang said seriously: "There is a pure-bred demon coming to Panzhou."

When they heard only one, many officials were obviously relieved. They did not know the horror of demons, nor did they understand what the concept of purebred was. They only thought that one person was not difficult to deal with. Although the huge prefecture had just recovered from a great disaster and lacked vitality, there were also high-walled and huge cities with thousands of soldiers. At that time, a group of people attacked them, and thousands of arrows were fired at once, and no demon could be dealt with.

It’s not their fault for making such a judgment. After all, few people have seen real demons. The rule of dynasty is based on military soldiers and armor, and everything goes well.

Chen Tang did not explain much. The most important thing at this time was people's hearts. So after saying some scenes, most officials were asked to go down to be responsible for the daily order issues of the prefecture.

After a while, only Tan Zhao and Taoist Fu Sheng were left in the hall.

Although Tan Zhao lost his military power, he was born into a general and knew the best of the military power in the city. And he obviously had a certain understanding of the "purebred demon" and had a worried face.

Chen Tang looked over and asked, "General Tan, do you have something to say?"

Tan Zhao thought for a while: "Sir, it is said that the demon is extremely powerful and cannot penetrate the sword and gun. He crosses mountains and rivers, as if he is walking on flat ground. He is about to break into the city, but I am afraid that the city walls and guards will not be able to stop it."

Chen Tang nodded and expressed his approval. When an individual's strength surpasses secular cognition, it will become extremely terrifying and there is no need to talk about any reason or rules.

It is the rule.

Tan Zhao also said: "There is a crossbow on the city wall, which is powerful and may pose a threat to the demons. But I don't know how the other party will break into the city. The crossbow is fixed on it, lacks mobility and is prone to fall into a passive state."

The so-called "bed crossbow" is a powerful weapon to kill fiercely. It fires five shots at a time and has a very fast fire rate. It was originally designed to target demons. Each crossbow is more than meter long, and the tip is forged with fine steel. It is engraved with special patterns. The monks are asked to turn the light. When an idiot is shot by it, it will continue to bleed and suffer severe damage.

However, no matter whether it is a monster or a demon, they do not have to break through the city, but have other ways. For example, the transformation technique, or the painting of a painted skin, and then they can swagger in.

Therefore, the nine gates specifically targeted evil spirits came into being, and even fewer practitioners who were unable to obtain the Taoist and Buddhist schools existed.

The emperors of the dynasty have been appointed as national teacher throughout the ages, either to invite Taoist masters or worship Buddhist monks. The royal family is mainly trying to win people's hearts and let these practitioners be used by the court and serve their lives, thereby suppressing the demon families.

This strategy has worked well, humanity is prospering day by day, while aristocratic families are declining day by day.

However, the most important thing about dynasty rule is nothing more than the doctrine of the mean. In a nutshell: balance.

Only balance can last for a long time. Once balance is broken, chaos will occur. Therefore, the court suppressed the aristocratic families on the one hand, and was also afraid of those who were cultivating, but they were afraid that one day a great master of power would emerge and fly a thousand miles of swords and fly straight to the Forbidden City to behead them. That would be amazing.

The biggest fundamental thing that can suppress these forces beyond the secular world is to raise soldiers and train soldiers. So the prefectures recruited and recruited soldiers. After the development, a system of command was formed, and eventually the local generals were rebellious and self-respecting. After the emperor died suddenly, a series of military turmoil caused.

In essence, this is actually the reason why the government and the people have lost their balance.

How easy is governing the country?

Without further ado, Chen Tang ordered Tan Zhao to ignite an elite heavy armored cavalry, full of clothes, and stay in the barracks and stand at any time.

Tan Zhao knew the situation was serious and immediately took the order.

At this time, Chen Tang looked at Taoist Fuchen.

This old Taoist has unfathomable cultivation and is a great reliance.

Taoist Fu Chen still looked sloppy and said lazily: "Sir, I believe you have made arrangements long ago and just say it. We monks, who are incompatible with demons, will never stand by and watch."

There, the abbot chanted the Buddha's name: "What Mr. Fuchen said is so true. Just tell me, and I will never say anything else in Jinchen Temple."

When the Dao and Shi families expressed their opinions, Chen Tang was very satisfied and said, "It's true that the imperial envoy came to the court. He was from the Hu family and had extraordinary cultivation."

As he said that, he looked at his face and saw Fu Chen and others very calm. Perhaps they had known about this. In other words, Tu Shanyi might have passed the qi in advance. This is not surprising. Hu worked hard to build friendships. As a half of them, they naturally gained recognition from the human race.

Chen Tang said, "They are coming. They are terrifying. If they are allowed to break into the city and start a massacre, Panzhou will suffer again. I don't know how many innocent people are killed. So I think it's best to solve the problem outside the city."

Leyin put his palms together and said, "Good, that's how it should be."

If the fourth brother of the Huang family breaks through, the bed crossbow and other powerful weapons will naturally work. I am afraid that the other party will secretly go to Chen Cang, and the gods will come into the city without knowing it. The defense of the city has become a decoration, and there will be no place to use it.

Since this is the case, it is better to start a war outside the city. After all, if you fight, those who can really go into battle will be the ones here, and others will die in vain. Of course, the elite troops led by Tan Zhao can be used as a backup plan.

Moreover, the fourth son of the Huang family came here not to eat blood all over the city, but to have another goal. As long as you treat the goal as bait, you can set up a killing game according to local conditions and increase your chances of winning.

This is exactly what Chen Tang and Tu Shanyi planned.
