Chapter 93: Old Things (5)
Wan Yunlong, the Dharma name Daozong, is also called Dazong in some places. His family name is Zhang, Zhao'an Erdu Jiujia Society, is Wanli's cousin, eighteen people worship, Fang changed to Wanyunlong, because it ranks fifth, so it is also called Wanwu monk.
According to legend, this person worshipped a lame sweeping monk as a teacher in the temple in his early years, and he was lame, but the martial arts of this monk of time and space were extremely superb, and he could even fly off the wall. Even with it, the Taoist method is also very clever, and he is good at poetry and painting, and has a wide range of contacts, so he will get acquainted with Lu Ruoteng's younger brother Lu Ruoji. Even if it was this attack on Zhangpu, it was Lu Ruoji who pulled the strings from it, so he made this move.
Historically, the Wanjia brothers attached themselves to Zheng Chenggong, and the Taoist monks who were proficient in Buddhism were cited by Zheng Chenggong as close friends outside the party. Later, he founded the Xianghua Sect of Buddhism, and at the same time founded the Tiandihui with Chen Yonghua, the general manager of Dongning.
Heaven and Earth will take the lead in the big brother Wan Yunlong, Chen Kai once thought that Wan Yunlong was actually Zheng Chenggong's pseudonym, but after learning about this person, he recalled why he worshiped the five ancestors of Hongmen first, and then worshiped Wan Yunlong's eldest brother and Mr. Chen Jinnan in the Eight Worship Song of the Heaven and Earth Society, instead of worshipping Zheng Chenggong, who was under the pseudonym Wan Yunlong first, and the five ancestors all worked under it, everything was explained.
After finalizing the matter of serving Zheng Chenggong, the Wanjia brothers began to prepare, Chen Kai's plan was to send part of the personnel to Chaozhou, and the rest of the people continued to maintain this three-regardless area, and at the same time, it could also be used as an arm when the army went east in the future. This point coincides with the Wanjia brothers, who raised troops here, and most of them were locals, and the first and foremost thing was to protect the territory and the people, and resist those harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes. If the whole division moves westward, this place will be empty, and the villagers will be restless at that time, which will also affect the march and battle.
The personnel were still organizing, how much to take away from the weapons and equipment and silver inventory, the Wanjia brothers were still discussing, but Chen Kai vetoed Wanli's idea. In his words, Zheng Chenggong swept through the southern part of Chaozhou, and he was in charge of the Ordnance Bureau, so it was enough to bring weapons for personal use and food to arrive in Chaozhou, and the rest was left to those brothers who continued to be stationed here to maintain the peace of the people.
Chen Kai's statement was immediately responded to by the brothers of the Wan family, and everyone's eyes on Chen Kai changed again, and they seemed to be a little more close.
Speaking of which, Chen Kaikang's Zheng Chenggong is really a thing without professional ethics. However, for him, it is more strategic to have a certain military presence at the junction of Zhao'an, Zhangpu, and Pinghe counties. Even, Chen Kai once proposed that he would try to allocate food and weapons to strengthen the left-behind rebels here, which was praised by everyone.
"How to say it, I, Chen Kai, am also a fellow acquaintance of Zhangzhou Mansion, and it is also my job to arm the Wang Shi and Yi Yong in the jurisdiction."
With the development of preparations, after a few days of hard work, Chen Kai's friendship with the Lu family brothers and the Wanjia brothers has become deeper and deeper, and there is a momentum of pouring into the past. However, Chen Kai has an official position after all, and this action was only discussed with Chen Bao, and Yu Zheng Chenggong only sent someone to send a letter to the past, so it is really not good to delay it for too long.
Fortunately, although the Wanjia brothers are worth a lot of money, since there is no need to move all of them, then things are much simpler, it is nothing more than picking people, and it will take some time.
The selection was soon over, and it was finally decided that Wan Li, Wan Yi, Wan Lu and others would go to Chaozhou with a thousand men and horses, accompanied by Daozong and Lu Ruoteng, while Lu Ruoji and others stayed here to continue to train soldiers and horses, protect the territory and the people.
On the eve of departure, Chen Kai specifically found Taoism, the two were originally very close to each other, in the words of Taoism, Chen Kai has a heavy responsibility to kill the car, with the words of Buddhism, it is in line with the truth of heaven and earth that good and evil will be rewarded in the end, and Chen Kai is also very appreciative of this person's poetry and painting, and his cultivation in Buddhism is also very appreciative, especially in this person is not a pedantic monk who clings to the rules and precepts, his thinking is very mature, and Chen Kai mentioned the "thunderbolt means, show the heart of the Bodhisattva" The truth is secretly in line.
After talking for a long time, Chen Kai meant that Daozong would be the liaison between Zheng Chenggong's department and Changlin Temple, and the latter also agreed. After talking about this, Chen Kai suddenly asked: "Master Dao has a wide range of contacts, have you ever thought of establishing a club, secretly developing anti-Qing righteous soldiers, and collecting intelligence for Wang Shi?" ”
As soon as Chen Kai said this, the Taoist Sect also lit up, but after an instant, it dimmed again. This scene was all seen by Chen Kai, and seeing this, he said to Daozong: "But I am worried about the funds for the event, if Master Daozong has thoughts, I am willing to sponsor it." ”
At this point, although the Taoist Sect was grateful for the trust, he still shook his head and said to Chen Kai: "If you don't hide it, the poor monk has really thought about this matter, but relying on contact alone and not being able to organize enough strength, he can only collect some useful and useless information, and it may not be delivered on time, which is really worth the loss." However, if it is necessary to form a club, the poor monks have no experience in this area, and they do not know how to start doing it, which is also a difficult task. ”
This matter is indeed a problem, Daozong and Zheng Chenggong have been friends for many years, but they have not been able to establish an anti-Qing organization. Later, Wan Li died in battle, because of a series of slander and misunderstandings, the Wan family brothers parted ways with Zheng Chenggong, or waited until Wan Lu was killed by the Qing court, and his people turned to rejoin forces with the Zheng family, and with the help of Chen Yonghua, they founded the Heaven and Earth Society.
Chen Kai doesn't know much about these, but the truth is still clear, the establishment of an organization is not something that can be achieved by closing the mouth and shouting a slogan, there are too many things that need to be considered, especially the system. What's more, Chen Kai never intended to just let the Dao Sect establish an intelligence network, that would be really overkill.
The problem of the Taoist sect, Chen Kai can't solve it for the time being, but it is really remembered by him. The two had a long talk, and when they parted, it was already the golden rooster to report. An hour later, when it was time to set off, Chen Kai made up for a sleep, came to Changlin Temple, and looked at the strong men gathered here, and his heart was surging and sleepy.
When you enter the main hall, everything is ready. Lu Ruoteng recited the oath, then picked up a dagger from the table in front of the Buddha statue, wiped the blade with his left hand, and the blood dripped into the twenty-one wine glasses in turn.
Lu Ruoteng is like this, followed by Lu Ruoji, Chen Kai and the Wan family brothers. After everyone's blood dissolved into one in the cup, everyone raised their wine glasses with both hands, fell to the ground on one knee, and shouted loudly at the Buddha statue in front of them.
"Letter man Lu Ruoteng."
"Believer Lu Ruoji."
"Believer Chen Kai."
"Believe in the man's courtesy."
“……”
"Disciple Daozong."
“……”
"Believe in the righteousness of men."
"Believe in the man."
“……”
"We are here today to make a bloody alliance, vowing to drive out the Tartars and restore the world of the Han family. If anyone violates today's oath, the heavens will hate it, and the earth will abandon it! ”
