Chapter 1630 Misrepresented formulas

Lin Zhao shook his head and said, "I still feel something is wrong!"

"The Minjiang River and the Dadu River are too far apart in location."

I waved my hand and said, "You got me wrong! I mean, the ancestral land of the Coffin Sect is definitely not at the mouth of the Minjiang River. However, Zhu Zining doesn't know that, so I need her to go to the mouth of the Minjiang River."

"Just leave this matter to Zero."

"Let's go to the Dadu River!"

Lin Zhaodao: "You mean, the ancestral home of the Coffin Sect is in the Dadu River?"

I analyzed: "This is why I want to say that ballad."

"From a historical perspective: Shi Dakai in his later period wanted to enter Sichuan and create a new dynasty."

"Assuming that Shi Dakai did not defeat Daduhe but successfully entered Sichuan, could he gain a foothold in Shu?"

"I don't think so."

"At that time, Shi Dakai suffered repeated defeats. Not only was the supply of food and grass unable to be guaranteed, but there were only 30,000 to 40,000 troops left. Of these remaining troops, less than half were elite."

"The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom has no foundation in Shu, and the Sichuan Army has always been famous for its bravery and strength. Without the elite Taiping Army, there is almost no possibility of defeating the Sichuan Army."

"Shi Dakai's defeat is only a matter of time."

"I will look back at Shi Dakai's defeat in the Dadu River."

"When Shi Dakai arrived at Zi Dadi, there were no Qing troops stationed on the other side, and the river was not very fast. It was entirely possible for him to cross the river by force."

"However, Shi Dakai stayed at the Dadu River for three days. When he wanted to cross the river, the water suddenly surged, making it impossible for him to cross."

"Why did Shi Dakai stay by the river for three days?"

Lin Zhao blinked and said, "Didn't you mean that because Shi Dakai's queen gave birth to a child, he wanted the whole army to celebrate for three days? There is another saying that Shi Dakai does not understand astronomy and cannot understand the climate. The local indigenous people, I don’t want to be his guide either.”

I asked, "Do you think this reason is credible?"

Lin Zhaodao: "What else is there?"

I explained: "Some people in later generations commented that Shi Dakai's military ability was insufficient and he was arrogant. That's why he stayed by the river for three days."

"I don't think so!"

"Shi Dakai, as the number one general of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, has a brilliant record throughout his life. It is impossible for him not to know the importance of military speed. I don't think it is credible to say that he delayed three days to celebrate his youngest son's birthday."

"You say that Shi Dakai didn't understand astronomy and couldn't predict the weather? Shi Dakai has been fighting for many years. If he can't even predict the weather, how can he always be victorious? Besides, in ancient times, there were special people who predicted weather changes when marching. Could it be that people in the Taiping Army No one knows how to predict the weather?”

I paused slightly at this point and said, "I think Shi Dakai is looking for something?"

Lin Zhao was confused: "You don't mean to say that Shi Dakai is looking for the ancestral land of the Coffin Sect, right?"

"Do you still want to say: Shi Dakai wanted to open the ancestral land, surrender the sealed demons for his own use, and conquer the Shu land? Isn't this... this is too outrageous?"

I said: "From a normal person's perspective, you would never think so, but from a warlock's perspective, it makes sense."

"Impossible!" Lin Zhao denied: "The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is a religious regime. They worship God. How can they still believe in demons? It's unreliable!"

I smiled and said, "Think about it for yourself, how much do the senior officials of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom believe in God?"

"They know very well, can they communicate with God?"

"If the subject of possession by the Heavenly Father were told in the West, if you said that you were possessed by the Heavenly Father, people would not exorcise you, but would just start talking about it. Do you believe it?"

"Shi Da Kaizhen may not necessarily believe this!"

Lin Zhaodao: "What you said seems to make sense!"

Ye Yang said at this time: "He should not choose to enter the Purple Earth!"

I nodded and said: "Purple Earth is a valley terrain with a big river in the middle and mountains on both the north and south sides. The walls stand thousands of feet high and the mountains are steep."

"In and out of the east and west valley entrances, there is just a small trail, which is narrow and winding. The valley stretches for dozens of miles and is overgrown with weeds and bushes. No one is farming in it, so there are no crops."

"This place is called Jedi in military terms. Once it is surrounded, it is like catching a turtle in a urn. But Shi Dakai just brought his troops into such a place where it is difficult to form a large-scale battle. It is also unreasonable!"

I said: "You are right about one thing! That is, Shi Dakai did not find the local guide, so he also failed to find the location of the ancestral land of the Coffin Sect."

I stood up and said, "Let's imagine it this way!"

"When Shi Dakai led his troops into the Purple Earth, he actually wanted to dig for treasure. However, he originally thought he would be able to find the place in three to five days, but he never found it."

"It's even possible that he moved to the wrong place and triggered the formation left by the mysterious coffin door, causing heavy rains for days and causing the river to surge, trapping him in the Purple Earth."

"Before he was defeated, he was still obsessed with opening the secret realm, muttering unconsciously: Stone dragon versus stone tiger, gold and silver gathered from the mountains."

"What he recited was a formula for finding the ancestral land of the Coffin Sect, but the soldiers or people who heard it took it as a formula for hiding treasures, and it was passed down like this."
