Affected by the large number of immigrants of the poor people, Manichaeism was unable to take advantage of the people's desire to find a way out and comfort their souls in anger and despair, and effectively demagogic people were recruited into the religion in large numbers, which caused an extremely short supply of soldiers needed by the Manichaean armed forces.

Manichaeism naturally hated pirates, but they had to make a fortune by smuggling pirates' goods, and in order to protect this huge wealth, they could not openly tear their faces with pirates, and secretly organized several actions to sabotage the migrants, but they were immediately met with strong resistance from the pirates, and suffered heavy casualties.

Stopping immigration has little effect, but reminds and prompts the people who want to find a way to seize the life-saving rope of immigration, and hurry up to emigrate, saving them from hesitating and making up their minds to run late, this way out is destroyed, and the only way out cannot be done, so they can only die in their hometown and continue to suffer pain and despair.

The pirates are powerful, and they are invincible at sea.

Fang La realized that his naval army had not been trained, and the warships were even worse, so he could not threaten Haitan Island to force the pirates to bow their heads, let alone attack the pirates' lair, but was under the dual threat of being exposed to the government and attacking from the sea at any time and anywhere, so he did not dare to easily adopt a tough attitude for military confrontation.

But with pirates, it's not so easy.

The pirates of Haitan Island, headed by Zhong Xiang and Ma Ling, ordered a strict investigation of the identity of the receivers and stopped trading with smugglers in the Manichaean sphere of influence, which actually indirectly cut off the Manichaean financial route.

How can the arrogant Fang La bow his head easily.

You don't trade with me. I'm not afraid.

Fang La tentatively probed, insisting on not supplying pirates, let alone helping pirates sell goods, and also realized that my teaching was powerful. There are many mountains in various tribes, and I will use some means to let you know how powerful the Mo-religion is against me. Order your subordinates to cut off the smugglers' access and rob the smugglers who pass by. It is better to make a fortune without capital for a period of time to force pirates to bow their heads, but they find that people's goods are not unmarketable, and business is still thriving.

Other smugglers were well-informed, and they made detours one after another, and continued to trade at sea and in the waters of the Yangtze River, the Pearl River, and the Huai River; both private and official merchants showed their skills, and sold all kinds of mineral products such as coal and pig iron, which were strictly forbidden to export in the Song Dynasty, and the normal trade in silk, tea, and ceramics was even more prosperous, and they all continued to smuggle frantically and make a fortune.

Toss a toss, and the Mojiao can't make much money without capital. Even the vast number of grassroots church members who relied on import and export smuggling to make a better living were questioned and dissatisfied with the leaders of the church because their business was cut off and their lives at home quickly fell back into difficulties.

is like what the old man said in the sketch "Tell the Truth": "Don't say it's useless." You whole thing. You reported the train ticket before coming. "In the same way, the people who are deeply affected by the evil fruits of Huashigang are not qualified, nor do they have the leisure and fantasy and willfulness, people are poor and short-minded, and their wives and children are not hungry first, and they only pay attention to the benefits in front of them.

What the backbone of the sect said to the people is the strategy of the Holy Ming sect leader to deal with pirates, and everyone should take a long-term view. Those who cannot succumb to the ruthlessness and unrighteousness of pirates, and must unite and help each other to seek a grand cause, no matter how eloquent they are, how beautiful they are. The parishioners only saw that others were continuing to make a fortune, their own families were starving, and the pirates showed no sign of bowing their heads and backing down. The Cult Master's advocacy against pirates has only made their lives difficult and hopeless. The discontent in my heart will only grow stronger. Many people simply quit the religion and joined the pirates.

This consequence could not be beared, Fang La could only pretend to be honest and soft. I apologize and plead for continued friendly cooperation.

However, the pirates have spoken that if you have the courage to continue to destroy my immigration and trade routes.

At all, the pretense of the Bird Religion succumbed to it, and continued to refuse to make deals.

Fang La and his subordinate military advisors suddenly became nervous.

They felt that the true face of the rebellion would be exposed by pirates at any time, Manichaeism was in crisis, military preparations were insufficient, the Great Song Dynasty's grace and residual prestige to the people were still there, and the rule in Jiangnan had not yet been corrupted to the point that everyone hated and wanted to rebel, and the people could still endure it, and the time for rebellion had not yet come, and the consequences of hastily doing something were unimaginable.

I'm really scared now.

I had to grit my teeth and endure humiliation, and promised the pirate slaves that they would not destroy the immigration and trade routes again, but on the contrary, they also helped to maintain them to a certain extent with factual actions, and made large compensation in terms of money and goods, and repeatedly pleaded for it, so as to regain understanding and return to the right to continue smuggling.

Fang La regarded this incident as a great shame, and swore heavily in front of the backbone of the sect that when he monopolized Jiangnan and unified China in the future, he would take revenge and kill all the pirates, so that these ignorant pirates who dared to provoke the Mojiao religion on the wild islands overseas would know the power of the ruler of his homeland.

If we can't effectively stop migration, we still can't effectively solve the problem of military resources.

Fang La used his other brains, pondered hard with his staff officers, and finally found a way to quickly increase his troops after repeated research and reconnaissance.

The first step is to change the doctrine of delaying people's enjoyment, so that the congregation can live better by eating meat and drinking alcohol, so as to further strengthen the cohesion and physical combat effectiveness of the armed forces. Although the core members of Manichaeism themselves secretly lived a corrupt life, the food diet only deceived and fooled the people of the church and made the majority of the people contribute and sacrifice.

Now that the scope of beneficiaries has been expanded, ordinary people can also taste the benefits, and the religion has become more attractive to the common people who pursue practical benefits, and has a more mass base, the fundamental goal is to focus on the temples that are widely distributed in the south of the Yangtze River.

Such people who are waiting to be worshiped and supported naturally have to live in densely populated and economically developed areas, at least in areas with abundant food and clothing.

If the gods, especially the large temples with a large number of people, are rooted in the poor countryside, and the local people are so few or poor that they have no food to eat, how can they be able to support the temple, no matter how devout they are? Monks, whether you are a virtuous monk or a pseudo-believer, you will starve to death if you don't have enough offerings, how can you talk about developing and strengthening your own sect.

Jiangnan is the land of fish and rice, not to mention wealth, first of all, there is no shortage of food. Therefore, there are many temples and monks.

Large, old, and influential temples are rich in land and wealth.

The wealth of famous monks in famous temples is also well known to later generations.

That guy went in and out of luxury cars, got the hospitality and protection of rich people and even high-ranking government officials, and lived in five-star hotels. Private gambling is about millions of bets. Losing five or seven million is not a good thing at all. In this era of superstition and royal influence, the cult of God was extremely prosperous. Many large temples have tens of thousands of hectares of fertile land, and there are countless tenant farmers. Rich and oily.

This is in terms of material wealth.

In terms of personnel.

What is a monk?

Only recognize the god, don't recognize the six relatives, and have no worries.

Isn't this the source of ready-made apologetic soldiers?

No matter how rich the temple is, the majority of middle- and lower-class monks are also bitter people who can't eat and can't enjoy. How many of the 100 monks, including many so-called eminent monks, are willing to live a hard life and follow the Buddha wholeheartedly?

The vast majority of monks are desperate or miserable orphans, not born to become Buddhas, but forced to live in monasteries due to real life.

The main theme of Manichaeism is to preach light and darkness, emphasizing that the darkness is about to pass, and everyone believes in me. The good days will come soon, so the history books are also called Mingjiao. It is a foreign sect that integrates the teachings of Christianity, Buddhism and other teachings, and it is a hodgepodge to say that it is a hodge, and after it is transmitted to the East, it is used by careerists, and it is natural to fill in what is needed, and discard what is not needed, and change the doctrine that has nothing to do with the main purpose, that is, to use the material enjoyment of wine and meat to attract false monks who want to get these things in their hearts to join.

As the saying goes: There is no unjust ghost in any temple.

Taoist temples and temples have never been truly secluded and holy.

It was a different kind of hierarchical society, full of cold and bloody dark sides such as power struggles. Bodhisattvas will also become angry-eyed vajra, put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the spot, and other sayings are not only preached to the outside world. It is also said to the internal hostile faction.

Under the erosive rule of the late Song Dynasty, the world was declining, people's hearts were corrupted, and the temples that were used to being built in the mountains became dirty because of the convenience of doing evil. Many of them have long since become places of filth and filth. The monks who supported them were more greedy, ferocious, and lustful than those layman robbers and gangsters. But it is very hidden and deceptive.

Fang La sent capable personnel to various temples in the south of the Yangtze River to carry out activities, using coercion and inducement, and colluding with internal and external parties. Even poisoned assassination and other means, the new trick succeeded. The effect is too significant.

One after another, temples have secretly become a Mo-Christian industry, and a small number of truly high-ranking monks with great influence have been placed under house arrest. It has become a signboard for the temple to absorb offerings and a living machine for collecting money.

The other monks, who were devout and refused to join the religion, were eliminated and thrown into the mountains to feed the wild beasts, and in this way, they deterred other dishonest monks from taking refuge honestly.

The rest of the part is true compassion, but also deeply saw and hated the corrupt rule of the Great Song Dynasty, and really wanted to be bewitched to help relieve the suffering of the people, joined the great cause of Moism and wanted to hold the sword and staff to perform the Bodhisattva's angry eyes, the Buddha's thunderbolt means to punish the evil, and to show another kind of compassion of the Buddha with iron and blood, to respect my Buddha, and to exchange this merit for the support of the new dynasty for this sect; Most of them want to play the butcher's knife first, enjoy life to the fullest, and then put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha if things don't go well.

The monks who have joined the Mojiao religion take advantage of the deep-rooted consciousness of ordinary people who are ignorant and believe in Buddhism, and deceive and fool the people with their teachings on the Dharma, which is much more powerful than the demagogic power of the original Mojiao religion, which lacks the foundation of the masses. It can also more effectively deceive the government and conceal the strength and secrets of the Mojiao religion.

After repeated verification by the Jiangnan intelligence network, the Mojiao has both people and money in this trick, tasted the great sweetness, and attaches more and more importance to this hand, causing trouble everywhere in the Jiangnan temple, and now it is very likely that there are 200,000 people who support the temple but can wield a knife to fight the crazy pseudo-Buddhists, known as the guardian savior soldiers within the Mojiao religion, and this number continues to expand, and the backbone generals of the Mojiao sect carry out secret military training in various ways. The number of troops needed for the rebellion is no longer a matter of restricting success, and what is most lacking today is sophisticated weapons.

Zhao Gonglian and Zhao Yue were very surprised when they learned the news, and in addition to admiring Fang La's hand was indeed unexpectedly clever, they also realized that the power of the Mo Sect must also be appropriately weakened, but the magic method of cracking Fang La's use of Buddhism could not be thought of for a while, so the large number of weapons and wealth war horses obtained in the Liao State could not be really obtained by the Mo Sect, and these backbone members of the Mo Sect who went north to get the horses could not let him return in large numbers, so they knocked down the two thousand soldiers led by the three gods of Jiangnan, and kept an eye on the people who were still looting, and weakened the situation. There was a matter of Hengshan pretending to be a Khitan army to rob and loot and Jinsuoguan in disguise.

It is necessary to hold down Fang La like holding down Chao Gai, so that he cannot rush to become the emperor because of his strong power and ambition, and he will soon start an incident in the near future.

We must not allow Jiangnan to prematurely erode, leading to the consumption of the Western Army's strength.

Weakening the backbone strength of Tian Hu and Wang Qing is also to prevent the Western Army from being drawn into a civil war.

As a traveler throughout history, Zhao Yue knows very well what the Confucian scholars are.

Standing on the aspect of righteousness and morality, it is the best way to speak and suppress and teach compatriots a lesson.

Advertised as unparalleled in justice, advertised as the most magnificent and upright, in fact, behind the back of the hands leisurely enjoy the blood and sweat of the people when the people do all the shameless black things, but in public but awe-inspiring speech, starting from Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, skillfully pat the emperor's sycophancy, please the ruling class, and strive to maintain the rule of the foolish people of the dynasty, in order to maintain their exclusive Confucian status, to the once prosperous hundred schools of thought have long since died out, Confucianism is still vigilant, do its best to suppress pragmatic sects and talents, trample on practical skills.

When the enemy invaded and the country and the nation were in danger, these mouths had no ability to save, and ninety-nine out of 100 scholars had long forgotten the loyalty and solar terms they preached, and chose to kneel and surrender with a sense of the times.

Zhao Yue deeply hated the Confucian artillery, who were conceited and high-minded but could only fire empty cannons, and hated the Confucian ideological domination that trapped China's scientific and technological development and dragged the Han nation into the abyss of ignorance and backwardness.

If he wants the corrupt surrender faction Donglin Party and the more harmful Manchu Qing to have no chance to appear in this world, he needs the Mojiao to wield a butcher's knife on behalf of the new country to eradicate the garbage in Jiangnan.

He knew that the crazy Mojiao would then kill officials, the powerful and powerful, the landlords and rich gentry, the officers and soldiers, the scholars, and all those who did not meet the needs of the Mojiao, regardless of whether they were good or bad, whether they had a conscience or not. He didn't care that these people with the most corrupt ideological roots were killed with a murderous butcher's knife in one fell swoop.

The birth of a new idea and a new era will always shed blood, and there will always be old sacrifices and paving stones.

Anything that hinders social progress, the so-called good people will be crushed and eliminated by the wheel of history.

Zhao Yue knew very well that no matter how convinced the people of Xinguo were that he was a god, he was not at all, he did not have omnipotent mana, and he could not change the ridiculous ideas of Confucianism that had been deeply rooted in the Han people's ideological system for thousands of years by educating him with his mouth, and he spontaneously continued to pass on from generation to generation.

It's so hard to put thoughts into someone else's head.

What's more, Confucianism has become a custom of the Han nation.

Zhao Yue wants to fundamentally reverse his mental outlook, and no matter how knowledgeable he is, he can't change the bloody law of the change of times.

What's more, he is forcibly reversing the trajectory of history and doing a great cause that is far ahead of the times and truly benefits future generations.

Revolution is not a dinner party. Politics is ruthless. Corrupt ideas and forces must not be allowed to steal the opportunity to fight back. In this case, it is better to eradicate rotten and outdated ideas from the flesh, quickly and effectively, and with the least poison, which is more beneficial to the free and prosperous world of future generations.
