The night in heaven is as long as the day, but for everyone in the team, no one knows the rules of the transition between day and night, so naturally there is no way to know when the day will light up again.
Xitianmen, the Tianmen closest to Xitian Buddhist Mountain, has not been as lively as it is now for many years.
Who would have thought that a mediocre Tianmen would have 70,000 heavenly soldiers and generals stationed there?
What's even more unbelievable is that the deputy commander Tianyou, who daily commands 300,000 heavenly soldiers and generals, will actually stay here all the time.
Among the Four Saints of the North Pole, Deputy Commander Tianyou ranks second, actually second only to Marshal Tianpeng. However, most people in Heaven never call him Deputy Commander, but always call him Marshal, perhaps everyone knows in their hearts that the iron-clad sky, the flowing water canopy, and the heavenly soldiers and generals in this Tianhe, I am afraid they still recognize this deputy marshal more.
Compared with Marshal Tianpeng, Deputy Marshal Tianyou has the decisiveness of a commander, and is more like a general who leads troops in battle than Marshal Tianpeng.
He is a very low-key person, far less fiery-tempered than General Heisha, but no one in heaven dares to underestimate him.
In terms of absolute personal strength, he may not be as good as the four marshals Ma Zhao, Wen Guan, but in terms of ability to lead troops, no one would compare those four with Deputy Marshal Tian You, because there is no comparison at all.
This is the confidence he has accumulated over the years!
Yu Zhao, the master of the West, did not expect that he would fall into Xitianmen. To be precise, he would fall into the hands of his own people.
He has always maintained full respect for Marshal Tianyou and Emperor Ziwei. Just kidding, as a small master, he naturally knows that he is as good as heaven and earth compared to the other party, so he has never dared to make any mistakes in the past. .
This time, I don’t know if it was the presence of the eight heavenly kings who urged the clouds and helped the rain, or the 20,000 heavenly soldiers and the confidence given to him by the Jade Emperor’s decree, that actually made him dare to stand side by side with the deputy commander Tianyou and give guidance to the country. There is a huge deviation in my own understanding. To put it more bluntly, I am overestimating my abilities.
So when the eight men who urged the clouds and helped the rain, Tu Qiong Dagger, openly rebelled, the Western master was helpless to find that he was so alone, and it seemed that he was the only one standing on the opposite side of everyone.
Vice Admiral Tianyou was quite polite to him, and just put him under house arrest alone in a room at Xitianmen. He was not put to death and was not tied with immortal rope, but the humiliation in his heart could not be increased.
The 20,000 heavenly soldiers and generals were recruited by Deputy Commander Tianyou without any hindrance, and they did not even dare to resist. The eight Heavenly Lords who urged the clouds and helped the rain also helped organize the two sides to coordinate their defenses, fulfilling their duties as traitors.
Naturally, he didn't dare to make any mistakes against Tianyou's deputy commander Yu Zhao, but he wanted to ask those people, how could the Jade Emperor do such shameless things when he treats you so well?
But he didn't have a chance to ask.
As a close confidant of Emperor Ziwei's subordinate, Deputy Commander Tianyou naturally knew what would happen. In fact, he also had a share of the credit for instigating the overall rebellion of the Lei Department.
It's just that this contribution has been so long ago that he has almost forgotten it.
From the beginning of this war, he knew the direction of this war clearly, whether it was the final victory or defeat, or the process that took place during it.
He was a little curious about the Jade Emperor's wonderful expression after knowing that the Lei Department was rebelling as a whole.
Among the eight tribes in heaven, the strongest ones are the Lei and Dou tribes. The Dou tribe is better because of its large number of immortals, which can account for almost 80% of all the immortals in the heaven. Among the remaining 20%, the Lei tribe is the only one with absolute strength. On a par with Doube, one can imagine how powerful the gods of the Leibu tribe would be if one of them counted.
What's more, with the Ministry of Plague holding the whole secret, it would be difficult for Emperor Ziwei to lose.
But what is important is not only the war itself, but also the subsequent reconstruction of the order of the three realms and the adjustment of the order of heaven, which is enough to keep Emperor Ziwei busy for a while.
The eight Heavenly Lords who urged the clouds and helped the rains had to return to Leibu Tianzun to resume their lives, and the deputy commander Tianyou did not try to persuade them to stay. In the future, there will be many opportunities for the two sides to meet again.
Yu Zhao is still imprisoned at Tianmen, and presumably the other three city gates are also the same. He is just waiting for Emperor Ziwei to give an order to see how to deal with it.
Four of the Four Saints of the North Pole did not participate in the war on the main battlefield under the order of Emperor Ziwei. Instead, they led troops to guard the four heavenly gates, each with different responsibilities.
General Beitianmen Heisha mostly stays at the base camp. In fact, his combat responsibilities are not strong, so he is the easiest.
Nantianmen is the main entrance to Heaven, and its importance is self-evident. In addition to guarding against foreign enemies, Emperor Zhenwu also has to judge the gods who come up from the lower realms to perform official duties in Heaven. Which ones are important and can be released, and which ones can be directly judged. Orders must be carried out, and some of them can be postponed for later discussion.
It is equivalent to Emperor Zhenwu becoming the prime minister and opening an office in Nantianmen. This can be regarded as a helpless move after the war in heaven. Among the Four Saints of the Arctic, only Zhenwu has this ability. It is hard to let Emperor Ziwei Do it yourself.
Marshal Tianpeng of the East Tianmen has the heaviest responsibility, because what he is guarding against is not foreign enemies, but Biyou Palace. The Four Saints of the North Pole know this in their hearts, and only Marshal Tianpeng may be able to deal with that mysterious and powerful man. Only the leader of Tongtian Cult has the power to fight.
The name is vigilance, but as for the specific responsibilities, I am afraid only Emperor Ziwei and Marshal Tianpeng know clearly.
As for Xitianmen, it is the place with the strongest combat responsibility after Dongtianmen. The reason is naturally because it is relatively close to Buddhism.
Therefore, Deputy Commander Tian You still needs to be on guard against the support from the Buddhist side that may come to Heaven. No one knows whether those guys who eat fast and chant Buddha will suddenly go crazy and add insult to injury. Whether it is the Jade Emperor or Ziwei Emperor who is in charge of Heaven, The most wary ones are always the bald guys.
But the Four Saints of the Arctic knew better that in addition to guarding against foreign enemies, they actually had another responsibility, which was to guard against possible internal instability.
To put it more bluntly, they are responsible for keeping out those who cannot come in from the outside, and they are responsible for keeping those who cannot leave from the inside.
It's a bit like martial law.
It's just that the martial law situation is too strong, and it doesn't look like martial law.
Among them, the one who is most guarded is none other than the great gatekeepers originally stationed at the four heavenly gates.
The king of holding the country in the east, the king of growth in the south, the king of wide eyes in the west, and the king of hearing in the north. It is obvious that the four kings cannot be dismissed like the main god. After all, the status of the other party is there. Both parties understand what the other party has in mind, but they have to be polite on the surface. , maintaining a delicate balance and boundary, just to see who can't help but break it first.
In fact, the four heavenly kings do not have many personal opinions on who should be the home of the heaven and the master of the three realms. They originally worked for Buddhism, and were later seconded to the heaven to work for the Jade Emperor. Now they are just working for Ziwei. The emperor is just working part-time. No matter who becomes the boss, he will not go so far as to kill the donkey and use the four of them as sacrificial flags, because there is no need.
They are just four idle kings who like gossip very much, and they really don't care much about this kind of thing.
It's just their inner obsession that still makes them want to report the news to Buddhism as soon as possible. This is also one of their responsibilities.
But it is obvious that this matter is not under their own control now, and it is extremely difficult to spread the news.
But they were still very glad that the Four Saints of the North Pole did not hide themselves. Of course, this matter must have been thought of by Emperor Ziwei a long time ago. With such a large formation, it would be difficult to completely hide it from the four heavenly kings. It would be better to inform the four of them directly. , it would be more convenient for both parties to discuss many things.
The Four Heavenly Kings also knew why the other party would not allow them to spread the news. After staying in Heaven for so long, they knew very well that Heaven or Dao Sect had always been wary of Buddhism. All they could do was guard the Heaven Gate as they should. In order to ensure the peace of both parties.
The Four Saints of the North Pole naturally understand what the other party wants. Out of their duties, they will not allow the Four Heavenly Kings to report the news to Buddhism. However, they are still polite to the Four Heavenly Kings and adhere to an appropriate limit.
The two sides are almost playing their cards right. Without external intervention, the two sides will probably live in peace until the change of power in Heaven is completed and Emperor Ziwei no longer worries about Buddhism knowing about it.
But whether it is in the human world or in heaven, events with high probability and small probability will always happen. If nothing unexpected happens, accidents will always happen.
King Guangmu of the West has been doing some repairs in his mansion these days. Since Heavenly Court and Emperor Ziwei sent troops to fill the West Tianmen completely, King Guangmu no longer goes to guard the West Tianmen.
Just kidding, there are 70,000 heavenly soldiers and generals, the deputy commander of Tianyou, and eight heavenly kings who urge the clouds and help the rain. What else do you want, the king of heaven?
His keen sense of smell naturally allowed him to immediately judge that something big had happened in the heaven. However, Deputy Commander Tianyou did not let him make random guesses, and actually told him the truth of most of the things at the first time, and said After a while, the order of the Heavenly Court will naturally be restored. At that time, it will be necessary to rely on the diligence of the Four Heavenly Kings to continue to guard the gates of the Heavenly Court.
King Guangmu simply returned to his home to clean up his affairs, so that he could be out of sight and out of mind. After all, he was not in his position and did not seek his own government, so why would he cause more troubles?
He knew that he was undoubtedly the best person to report to Buddhism because it was the closest to Xitian, but he also knew that before the time came, if he didn't want to become like Yu Zhao, he would have to do his part. Wait and see what happens.
Today's Guangmu Tianwang is a little anxious.
His dragon was lost.
