Chapter 819 Do Overthrow the Three Religions, and I Am the only One
"Master!"
A group of people escorted Aaron out of the dense forest through another mountain path.
Zhan Da came to report: "The sentinels came back and found no arrests... We are safe for the time being. In addition... the dry food carried by the subordinates and others can last for three days..."
"Um!"
Aaron was protected in the center by dozens of soldiers, like a noble son or general in the army traveling.
Hearing the words, he fell into deep thought.
Even Liujia Shenbing still has to eat.
Of course, he can forcibly order to drink porridge, or even eat grass and dirt! They will never resist, and will obey orders awe-inspiringly.
But in this way, combat effectiveness cannot be guaranteed.
"I need to find a place to supply as soon as possible... Well, a soldier in the army needs to consume at least a catty of rice a day. If there is meat, it can be less. At the same time, vitamin supplements are needed..."
"Fifty people means fifty catties a day, fifteen hundred catties a month, or fifteen stones!"
One stone made from pine is equal to one hundred catties.
Today's rice-wheat rotation in southern China yields two crops a year, and one acre of wheat can be harvested for one stone, and one acre of rice can be harvested for two stones.
In terms of grain prices, during the Taiping period, a stone of rice cost a consistent amount of money, that is, one tael of silver.
"Counting it all down, to raise fifty soldiers, one month's food costs fifteen taels, not counting other expenses... The army is indeed a gold swallowing beast. And once it becomes large, the source of goods, transportation, and logistics will all become big problems."
"If it weren't for my official rewards, I wouldn't be able to support many people, but I can't just sit and eat..."
After thinking about it, Aaron once again thought about planning for the future.
"Being the emperor is too easy, there is no challenge..."
"To get more qi points and influence more people, there is nothing better than breaking the original attachment to the body, or even breaking the belief... First set a simple small goal, for example-to overthrow the three teachings of Sanskrit and Taoism?"
This task is not easy.
Both Buddhists and Taoists have their own supernatural powers, and famous religions are spread all over the world, represented by bureaucratic landlords and scholar groups.
Historically, no matter which family of Qianlong ruled the world, they had to cooperate with them in order to spread their rule to the counties and villages.
However, it was fine when the founder Taizu was still alive. Once the Taizu passed away, no matter what, the future emperors would be gradually eroded in power, and even ride on their heads!
'More importantly... people's hearts! '
‘Scholars who control the public opinion of the world can naturally control the hearts of the people... It is a huge project to win the hearts of the people. But starting from this aspect, the harvest of Qi points is also very big...'
'It seems that... I still have to intervene in this battle for the dragon. Since I was beaten as a demon, I can't suffer this grievance in vain! '
‘However, I really don’t know much about fighting for dragons, so I have to ask someone knowledgeable. I don’t know where the poisonous dragon is? '
...
the capital.
Master Ziyao was dressed in Taoist robes, and his face was slightly pale. This was the backlash and sequelae brought about by the change of Dasong's fate last time.
At this time, the sleeves fluttered, and he still looked quite immortal, and came to a Taoist temple.
"A real person!"
The abbot of the Taoist temple immediately saluted reverently, and invited Master Ziyao into a secret room.
"What happened to the 400,000 forbidden troops?"
Immortal Ziyao sat down and didn't have time to drink tea, so he asked this in the first sentence.
Troubled times are approaching, military power will become more and more important!
For Dasong, the 400,000 troops are the biggest capital to maintain the imperial court and destiny!
Once you can't grasp it, if you can't grasp it well, there will be big problems immediately!
However, before, I was used to emphasizing civility over military affairs. Civil servants generally underestimated military officials. It has almost become the norm for an eighth-rank Qingliu to dare to scold fifth-rank guerrillas at will!
The former Tong Jing was barely a soldier, and he had served as a privy envoy for many years, and he could barely hold down those rebellious army leaders.
Once the body dies, Dasong's destiny will be crumbling, that's the reason!
Prestige is a very mysterious thing, seemingly invisible, but at critical moments, it is really necessary!
"The real person also knows that after the death of Privy Secretary Tong, the two Gu Ming ministers also fought over the military power. Recently, a candidate was officially announced—Lord Gao Qiugao, to serve as the Privy Councilor!"
Master Ziyao nodded slightly.
Gao Qiu is also a civil servant, but he has served as an army guard for a period of time, so he can be regarded as knowledgeable about military affairs.
It's just that in terms of prestige, strategy, and qualifications... they are far inferior to Tong Jing. It is really unknown whether they can rectify the 400,000 imperial troops.
"I don't know how it's doing?"
"It's not very good. There was another mutiny in the forbidden army before, and it was suppressed after beheading a lot of people..." The host of the Taoist temple also had a bad look on his face.
As soon as the official family died, the Lord Shaoguo was suspicious, and many people became concerned.
For example, Xungui secretly seized military power, and even those military leaders raised prices... These are all unstable factors!
Gao Qiu was able to suppress and prevent the 400,000 forbidden army from collapsing, which is already very hard work.
But... I really can't move!
Master Ziyao also knows about soldiers, and he said decisively: "At this time, the imperial army cannot move. If they move, there will be defeat, or there will be a mutiny during the march, then it will be truly irreversible... At this time, the key is to keep calm, as long as one or two The year will be fine."
After all, the righteousness of the imperial court is still there. As a privy envoy appointed by the imperial court, Gao Qiu only needs to work steadily and step by step. Slowly, he will be able to subdue the thorns in the army and then control the entire army, but it will take time!
"I'm afraid there may not be another year or two..." The Taoist host said bitterly: "The forbidden army in the capital can't move, and civil disturbances will break out everywhere... and the military envoys are all ready to move."
"The troubled times are approaching, and dragons and snakes will rise together."
Master Ziyao took a breath, and then his expression turned firm: "My way is too deeply tied to Dasong, and I have to plan for it at this time!"
"Dare to ask the real person, will the plan come out?"
"It's just a plan to draw salary from the bottom of the pot." Ziyao Zhenren said: "Nowadays there are thieves in the Central Plains, and there are many dragons and snakes among them. It is necessary to select the largest one to recruit, and then send it to attack other rebels, so that they can consume each other... Maybe Continue the community for a few more years!"
"Is it so easy for the rebels to recruit security? And...the other party will gladly obey and attack other rebels?" The host was a little uneasy.
After all, it is normal for rebels to be capricious, and it is rare to be loyal.
Immortal Ziyao's expression suddenly became secretive: "It's really true... Song Gongbao, the lord of Xiaohuang Village, wanted to recruit people before... You mobilize our people, and you must push this matter to go smoothly!"
In fact, he still has a deeper secret that he hasn't said.
‘This Song Gongbao is just like Zhang Ye. They are all dragons calculated by the great master in advance, and they can be used to renew the life of Dasong...’
'Jiaolong is a generation of outstanding people, and even has the hope of a real dragon. Ordinary circumstances may not be able to persuade... But they are not in an ordinary situation. The great master has already made arrangements in secret! '
'Alas...it's also because the secrets of heaven are changing too fast, so I have to play this hole card in advance...'
'The snakes in all directions are about to move, and the forbidden army is born and unable to move. They can only let them kill each other, and the court can be peaceful...'
...
A pool of water.
The reeds are floating, and there is a lake island not far away. There is a small mountain on the island. Wild birds often fly by. The mountain is full of unknown flowers, which is a scene of its own.
At this time, a Taoist priest and a boy were watching the breath along the lake.
This Taoist priest is tall, dignified, majestic, and has a strange face, which can be regarded as strange.
He looked at the water and hills, and his brows became more and more wrinkled: "It's really strange... The weather around Song Gongbao's ancestral tomb has not changed, why does the dragon's aura faintly move closer to the Dasong dragon's veins, and even has the intention of surrendering? This is not right! !"
Taoism emphasizes that goodness is like water, and it is necessary to help the dragon as soon as possible.
This Taoist named 'Gongsun Luo' came from the lineage of Zixuguan. He chose Song Gongbao, a Qianlong, early on, determined his fate, presided over the relocation of his ancestral grave, and made a lot of investment.
Song Gongbao lived up to expectations. Although he started earlier, he was invincible and invincible, and he was able to recruit talents. He had a strong momentum early on and occupied Xiaohuang Mountain Village. It was easy to defend and difficult to attack. Just waiting for the time.
It has always been Gongsun Luo's pride to be able to arrange so far.
But recently, the time of day came earlier, which made him, who watched the stars at night, realize something was wrong.
The real dragon invested by his family's Daomai...seemed to...be bent on recruiting security?
"If the power was weak before, it's okay to stay dormant for a while... But now recruiting security is more harmful than beneficial. Once you surrender, you will be reduced from the status of the lord to the status of a minister. Among other things, are those subordinates loyal to you or the court? People's hearts Most of them dispersed in one fell swoop... Take Death Daoer!"
What surprised Gongsun Luo the most was what was going on with Song Gongbao's inexplicable idea of recruiting security?
During the previous exchanges and inspections, I never saw the other party so loyal to the imperial court!
"Could it be...there is something wrong with the Longmai of Liangshanbo?"
As soon as he thought of this, Gongsun Luo seemed to have been pushed away from the fog in front of his eyes, and his heart was terrified.
Taoists can watch the aura, but they are also easily fascinated by the aura!
But the boundary between them is a question of whether they have thought of it.
Thinking about it, looking at the momentum of Liangshan Park, I suddenly feel that something is wrong!
"It's about Qianlong's lifeline, but I don't care about magic weapons."
Gongsun Luo gritted his teeth, and took out the magic weapon passed down from Zixu Temple. This magic weapon is a bright pearl, and there seems to be a talisman in it, which emits mysterious light.
As soon as it was thrown at this time, it exploded in mid-air.
Gongsun Luo suddenly felt a breath of fresh air in his upper body, his eyes flashed, and with the help of magic weapon, he saw through the dark land and reached the deepest dragon vein.
But in the thick earth atmosphere, a khaki dragon vein spread, and there were some water waves around it.
"Like a dragon getting water, its qi is self-generated... The power of this dragon's veins is very strong, and it can gather people the most when I acupoint it... So Song Gongbao's subordinates gathered all kinds of counselors, it's all right..."
"But the direction of the dragon's veins is very problematic...it didn't come out of nowhere, it turned out to be...a branch of the Dasong Dragon's veins?!"
"How is this possible? Why didn't I see it before?"
"But if this is the case, it makes sense... Song Gongbao relied on the support of Dasong's dragon veins to start his family, which owes karma. Therefore, he has a heart for Dasong, and he has the heart to ask for peace! He even can't bear to attack Dasong. After all, he has two sides in one body. Attacking Dasong is like cutting off your own arm!"
"At this time, move to the grave quickly, if you lose your way and know your way back, it may be too late."
"As for the karmic debt owed? At worst, after the world is seized, it will be repaid!"
Gongsun Luo's face turned cold: "I just don't know if the fog is a coincidence or man-made?"
"If it's a secret, it's okay, but if it's man-made... This is really terrifying. It must be the work of the Dao Meridian, who specially plotted against me, Zixu Guan! Damn it!"
"Master?" Seeing his master's grim expression, Daotong couldn't help asking in fear, "What happened?"
"It's okay, I'll go see Chief Song soon and persuade him to move the ancestral grave!" Gongsun Luo gritted his teeth.
The most important thing at this time is not to let this investment go to waste.
Although it may not be useful to relocate the ancestral graves after receiving this dragon energy, it is better than not relocating at all!
"As expected of the Zixu Temple, I finally discovered it."
At this moment, a voice sounded from the side, Ziyu Daoist dressed in Taoist robes, stepped out: "I have met fellow Taoist!"
Beside him, there are two real people Zilei and Ziyin.
"The three great masters of Chongming Dao come out together, so it's you! Good... good!"
Gongsun Luo's fingers were trembling: "It turns out that you are plotting against my orthodoxy!"
"No, the way to fight for the dragon does not lead to death, each depends on his own ability." Taoist Zi Lei made a tactic with both hands, and there seemed to be an electric arc flashing all over his body: "Seeing that we are both in the same lineage of the Taoist sect, fellow Taoists immediately sent out the way Swear, no longer participate in the affairs of the two sides, we will respectfully send fellow daoists to leave, and there will be no further words!"
"Too much bullying! Too much bullying!"
Gongsun Luo's canthus was about to burst, and after clicking on the dragon's cave, his Zixu Temple's support for Song Gongbao was painstaking. Could it be that all of these were picked peaches?
"Fellow Dao... Dasong is still orthodox. We will come with the destiny, and you will never stop us." Master Ziyin's voice slowly, like a spring breeze blowing on his face, dispelled the hostility: "It's better for the two parties to stop and rebuild. "
"I love you!"
Gongsun Luo was so angry that he cursed: "Look at my way!"
Boom!
Above the water pool, there seems to be a dark wind sweeping over, manifesting formation gates one after another.
But the next moment, there was a flash of thunder and lightning.
The array flag was broken immediately, turned into small streamers, and fell to the ground.
Gongsun Luo's face was earthy, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Master!"
Daotong next to him exclaimed, and his face was full of tears.
...
After a while, looking at the back of the boy supporting Gongsun Luo as he staggered away, Master Ziyu sighed: "If the number of days hadn't been advanced, and there was a great master covering up the secret, Zixu Temple might not be able to discover it, so there is no need to tear your face... This person, Can you really bear it?"
Master Zi Lei put his hands in his sleeves: "If you can't bear it, you have to bear it! Now that you have made an oath, you must not participate in this dragon fight... Otherwise, the destruction of the Taoist system is not a joke! Thanks to the junior sister who selected such key nodes .”
"Brother praises you." Master Ziyin said indifferently: "That Dao Tong was born with spiritual wisdom, and he is also Gongsun Luo's own son. In the future, he will inherit the orthodoxy. With this son present, Gongsun Luo must not dare to die!"
Some Taoists cannot help getting married, and it is common for Gongsun Luo to have a son.
Moreover, the power and assets of Taoism and Taoism, unless there is no choice, which father would not pass it on to his son, but would pass it on to other disciples?
Chong Mingdao chose to show his cards at this time, because he also took a fancy to Gongsun Luo's love for his son!
