Yin Gang smiled and nodded in response to the monk's softness: "Okay." Since I don't want to make trouble. Now I'm going to get down to business. ”

"This official does not argue with you on the merits. The Cheongju government doesn't care what you have done, what the reason for you came, and it doesn't matter if you are wronged or not. This is not a review body for redress of grievances. According to the holy order, you come to Cangbei to work on the side of the tun, and you must do it. There was no negotiation under the decree. I believe you know this very well. ”

"The second and most important point is that our border troops can only survive under the enemy's butcher's knife by fighting bravely and fighting faithfully. Now that you have become a member of the border army, you must also fulfill your responsibilities, if you don't work, you will have no food to harvest, and you will starve to death without food. We, the border army, are also obliged to protect those unscrupulous people who are unwilling to do their best for the country and the people. This is the reality. Since he is a Song person, he relies on the Song soil to survive, and enjoys the protection of the Song army's bloody sacrifice and the benefits of the Han nation, so no matter who he is or what identity he is, he should serve the country and win glory for the Han nation. It doesn't matter if you're a religious or not. Don't talk about gods and demons. ”

"Everyone else in the world has to contribute to the country and the nation. Why can the children of Buddhism sit back and enjoy their achievements without doing anything? ”

"Of course, if you really have the ability of immortals, and you don't need to eat, drink, or consume the wealth of your own people, then you can be justified and not work. This is understood and admired by everyone. ”

"These are the attitudes of my Cangbei Army."

In the gloomy expressions of the monks, Tong Gang restrained his smile and became solemn.

"I understand. Now I announce that my marquis is also the order of the commander of the Cangbei Army. ”

The monks and the officers and soldiers of Hejian Prefecture who were present all subconsciously pricked up their ears.

Unexpectedly, the order announced was not to the monks in the first place, but to the soldiers of Hejian Prefecture.

"The military discipline of the Great Song Dynasty, this official will not repeat it here. What I want to say is that you officers and soldiers must abide by the rules of Cangbei and obey the orders of the military and political commander of Cangbei in Cangbei. If you feel that you are a border army of Hejian Province, and you don't belong to Cangbei, you dare not listen to the greetings and do not abide by the rules, and you will be killed without mercy. One kills one, and one army kills another. ”

The officers and soldiers of Hejian Mansion, from generals to small soldiers, all changed their expressions when they heard the voice.

Only then did they suddenly remember: Marquis Wen Cheng was not only the commander of Cangbei, but also the deputy control envoy of the entire Gaoyangguan Road, and had the right to supervise and train the border troops on the east and west roads of Hebei, that is, the power of life and death to punish those who had training, and under the military law, it was said that killing you would cut you down immediately. With Zhao Gonglian's toughness, he will definitely dare to kill.

The point is that the Cangbei Army is not easy to mess with. And this is the territory of Cangbei.

Look at the three hundred cavalry who came with General Zuo Tunwei, the spirit is different from the rest of the Song army, all of them have straight waists, sharp eyes, strong and high-spirited and confident, this is not pretending to show them the soldiers from Hejian Mansion, nor is it a disguise to deter the monks and criminals who are escorted, it is a very natural action and expression.

A strong army is a strong army, not something that can be pretended, and it has its own terrifying fierce and bloody momentum.

With this comparison, if you look at the border army of Hejian Mansion, it is scum, and the 100,000 army is also trained by Captain Su Taiwei according to the basic law of Wencheng Hou training that has been circulated in the world for a long time, not to mention the newly recruited unscrupulous people who are forcibly recruited and do not want to be soldiers at all, even the old border army generals also feel that something is missing.

None of them, the border troops who have been trained intensively under many dangers and pressures, let alone the various scattered second-rate ruffians in the interior. Even the Western Army, which has long been famous and has always been regarded as the strongest army in the Great Song Dynasty, is not as good as the Cangbei Army.

There are Hejian soldiers from the northwest who know that the soldiers of the Western Army have to fight to become soldiers, otherwise the fathers, elders, relatives and friends behind them will not be able to survive, but they have never been able to resist the threat of Western Xia, and they have persevered for decades, not to mention ordinary soldiers, many middle and low-level generals and even core generals in the army are numb and have a strong sense of fatigue and war weariness. The Cangbei Army in front of him was inspired by the Marquis of Wencheng and the Cangzhao family to voluntarily serve as soldiers, and they were willing to actively fight for the country and the people, and they were happy when they heard the war, and they were proud of their heroic bloodshed and sacrifice, and they were ashamed of being timid and afraid of war.

This difference alone divides the two equally world-famous strong armies into distinct levels in the realm, and distinguishes them from the superior and inferior.

In the past, I only heard the name of the Cangbei Army for being brave and good at fighting, but now I believe it when I see it with my own eyes: with the same number of elites, I am afraid that the Western Army will not be able to kill the Cangbei Army.

There are 20,000 such strong soldiers in Cangbei, which is not much, but it is enough to defeat and defeat several times stronger enemies.

This is the confidence of Marquis Wen Cheng who is not afraid of Liao Kou, who will come in the blink of an eye, and is not in a hurry to expand the army?

There is such an army under his command, and people have this self-confidence.

And the Qingzhou soldiers in front of them are obviously just common soldiers who are randomly transferred from the defenders of Qingzhou City for a purpose, not the elite of Cangbei, let alone the guards of Wencheng Hou, but they already have such a terrifying might, if it is rumored that the well-equipped Houfu Tiger Guards who are outnumbered, what kind of style should it be?

Thinking about it from another angle, Marquis Wen Cheng sent his own guard captain to deal with the monks and prisoners and restrain the temporarily deployed Hejian border army, but he did not send another guard to help cheer, nor did he send heavy troops to the town, but only sent a mere 300 people, that is, he did not take these Hejian soldiers who were not easy to control seriously, he was not afraid that they would not accept or listen to the greetings, and he was not worried that the many monks and men who came with resentment and some momentum would dare to make trouble in Qingzhou, and he was not afraid that the monks and the Hejian soldiers would rebel together.

Perhaps this Zuotunwei general is looking forward to them getting together to make trouble or even collude to rebel, so that they can wantonly kill and show the bravery, ferocity and invincibility of the Cangbei Army, set a good start for the smooth development of the reception work in the future, and save the energy of dealing with many troubles in the future. Otherwise, how could he have the mentality of encouraging trouble?

Thinking of this, these first batch of Hejian soldiers suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

Just now, I walked in front of the ghost gate, and almost unknowingly lost my life as the unlucky chicken who became a monkey.

Fortunately, I just had the dirty idea of giving the Qingzhou army some good-looking, but I didn't strictly control the monks and not allow them to make trouble, and I wanted to take the opportunity to embarrass the Qingzhou government, and strive for more attention and friendly treatment for myself, so that the life here would be better, rather than deliberately indulging or even instigating the monks to participate in the big trouble.

Fortunately, I have been training as a soldier for a few months, and I have a little sense of military discipline, and I have subconsciously mastered some sense of proportion before I acted, and I am not afraid of big things as before I was a soldier, but I am afraid that things are not big enough and I am used to even being keen to mix in and take advantage of them at will.

I have heard it for a long time, and Wen Chenghou has criticized the new border army in Hejian more than once in public that it is not even as good as a pig, saying that such a person is also worthy of being a soldier? It is not worthy of being a border army, it is not at all a material for sacrificing for the country to fight, it simply insults the honor and image accumulated by all the loyal and brave border troops of the Great Song Dynasty with blood and sweat, and it is also unbearable to create a country that cannot be defended and wastes money and food.

This Hou Ye who dares to speak and dare to do is obviously not an ordinary disgust for them, the scum who came from all over the world and harmed Cangzhou City.

That accusation is also to express his extreme contempt and disdain for the incompetent Cangzhou prefect Zheng Juzhong, in fact, it is to ridicule Zheng Juzhong for not even being as good as a pig and a dog, and showing his naked hatred and deep hostility to this damned current Cangzhou parent official who has harmed his family and destroyed his hard work in governing Cangzhou, and he is not good to the Hejian New Army.

Marquis Wen Cheng has this mentality, how can he cherish the secondment of the border army in Cangbei? How can they care about slaughtering and sacrificing a group of soldiers, venting their anger and deterring future soldiers?

Thinking of this, these unscrupulous people in military uniforms couldn't help but be more frightened, and realized more deeply that if they didn't serve Cangbei honestly, not only would they not have a good life, but their lives would be gone at any time.

Even if Marquis Wen Cheng disdainfully kills wastes like them who only have black hearts and no combat effectiveness, it is terrible enough for the Cangbei Army to suffer hardships only with their hearts.

After a few months of mixing in the military, they finally knew that there were too many tricks in the army, and it was too convenient, and it was better to play a random way to rectify people. For example, the most common long-distance training, not only to run long distances, is enough to kill people, but also to carry weights is even more fatal.

If you still dare to disagree.

It's very good, and you don't have to change to a more ferocious whole trick, just lengthen the training distance and increase the weight, even if you are an iron man, you have to be tired and call your mother, and it will be like death after training. Still dare to disagree? It's better, it's kind. Then increase the number of exercises, and train you reasonably and legally every day to ensure that you vomit blood and become crippled.

With these wine-colored soldiers who have hollowed out their bodies, the ruined young master, or the unscrupulous scholars who are powerless to kill chickens, how can their small bodies resist such a toss?

They have been deliberately taught by veterans in the training of Hejian Mansion and have suffered this kind of hardship many times, they are knowledgeable, soft bones, hurry up and be soft, honest and obedient, and their lives can be preserved to this day. This is already the most serious and upright way, not to mention the countless evil and illegal methods.

The former brothers and accomplices who were newly incorporated into the army together don't know how many like to bully people because they are stubborn and difficult to change, and they have set up enemies in the army and have been killed by confusion and revenge.

The Hejian army who came was honest, and they would also ventilate the news so that the later good brothers would be honest. Don't make a mistake and let the Cangbei Army catch the handle of being an unlucky monkey.

The senior monks among the monks were more intelligent than these soldiers, and the strong warnings against these monks were further seen from the orders to the Hejian army that were full of murderous intentions.

The key is the reputation of the Cangzhao family, which is known to almost everyone in the world. Zhao Gonglian and Zhao Yue's brothers are even more famous for their courage and daring.

Since Zhao Gonglian said that those who dare to disobey the rules will be punished immediately, then he will definitely do it. You don't have to wonder if he will dare or not.

Tong Gang saw that the rotten soldiers in the river and these monks who wanted to pretend to be gods in the mortal world and live a fairy life were quieter and more honest, and the team was in order, so he didn't bother with admonitions and warnings.

His gaze turned to the monk.

"Now announce the orders that my marshal has given you."

The monks, whether they are high-ranking monks, low-ranking monks, literary monks, or pious warrior monks with some blood and bravery, are even more nervous. The order for his fate has finally arrived.

"Listen up. Article 1. Tong Gang raised his voice, almost shouting: "The monks who know how to heal are out of the ranks." ”

The monks never thought of this, they were all stunned, they didn't know what Wen Chenghou's intentions were, it was difficult to know whether it was a blessing or a curse, and they didn't move for a while.

Tong Gang rode his horse closer a lot, his eyes coldly scanned the large bald head that had grown into a short inch, and shouted loudly again.

"Did you not hear the order, or did you not know how to heal?"

"Ben will remind you that you have to listen carefully and understand, and there will be no more missed opportunities."

"Amitabha."

With a Buddha horn trying to raise his voice, an old monk with white hair slowly walked out of the monks.

He came to the horse and bent down slightly, "The poor monk is not talented, devout to my Buddha, can chant the scriptures and pretend to be immortals, and will also have some medical skills to help the world and save people, and has been indirectly practicing medicine for decades, persevering, saving in difficulty, and doing his best, but he has not killed a few lives, but he has also treated many incurable diseases, and he has been obliged to save patients who cannot remember, and he will not receive returns." ”

The words of the old monk, anyone who is not stupid, can hear the mockery, which is undoubtedly a counterattack to Tong Gang's criticism and questioning of Buddhism before.

Who said that my Buddhism is unwilling to contribute to the country and the nation? Who said that my Buddhism doesn't work and sit back and enjoy the results?

My Buddhism is compassionate, purifying all sentient beings, educating people to be kind, helping others, and doing many good deeds. What is not important and has made a great contribution to the country and the people?

What do you know as a Qiu Bajun man? Don't use power to humiliate our Buddha's children here.

Tong Gang smiled, but ignored the old monk's ridicule.

He knew that this was an old monk who wanted to provoke an argument, and he still wanted to persuade him with the eloquence that Buddhism was best at, which also indirectly affected his own handsome's mentality towards monks.

"Good. Please stand on the left and wait. ”

A word sent the old monk away, and asked again: "Is there anything else?" ”

With the old monk taking the lead, he also heard an invitation from Tong Gang's mouth, and suddenly more than a dozen male and female monks of different ages walked out of the team.

"Good. Please go to the left as well. ”

He raised his voice again: "Is there anything else?" “

"If you have medical skills and love medical skills, it doesn't matter if you don't have the real ability to treat diseases, stand up. Of course, don't overdo it. ”

This voice was threatening and warning, but it was kind.

Suddenly, there was a commotion among the monks. More than a dozen young monks also came out, and each consciously stood beside the person who came out first, undoubtedly a disciple of medicine.

Tong Gang glanced at the monks who came out and sighed, "Four or five thousand monks, even the apprentices, there are only a few in total. What a pity! ”

When the old monk who came out first heard this, his face immediately turned red.

Shameful.

What does it mean that a huge group of people only has practical skills and are willing to serve the country and the people, and the rest will only and just want to sit back and enjoy their success as social parasites?

Is your Buddhism so compassionate and so compassionate and so contributing to the country and the people?

"Amitabha."

The old monk said loudly: "It's the poor monk who looks good." Ashamed. “

Tong Gang became serious: "It seems that you are the real merciful one. It's a good thing to know that you're ashamed, and it's even more fortunate. This is the correct attitude that should be taken when coming to the northern border of Cang. “

I don't need to say anything about the rest of the story.

Do practical things in Cangbei, truly contribute to the country and the people, and make up for the sins accumulated by Buddhism for thousands of years, Cangbei will naturally give you monks a good life and even give hope. Otherwise, huh

"The second big commander order, there are superb cooks to stand up and go to the left back. If the big pot of rice is well done, you can also stand up. One more reminder, this is a border pass, military law is strict, and human life is not valuable. It's still the same sentence, don't overdo it. Otherwise, you will bear the consequences. “

At this time, the monks responded enthusiastically, and in a blink of an eye, hundreds of people actively came out. Many of them had a confident look on their faces.

Readers and friends know that vegetarian food is very famous, and its production is extremely delicious and exquisite, which is no less rare and expensive than the Manchu and Han full banquets.

And the Buddhist precept is this precept and that, among the remaining life needs, satisfying the appetite has naturally become the most important, drinking good tea and enjoying delicious food, and being rich has this power.

The monks don't ask for anything else, and make up for the shortcomings of life in their mouths, which is also the need for health preservation, and they have that identity, and the vast majority of them are very particular about diet. Su Zhai is highly valued in too many powerful temples, and it does not hesitate to spend a lot of money, and there is a special team to study this important means of serving good elders and monks, and it is also an important means to attract wealthy customers.

Many dignitaries and wealthy businessmen go to the temple to make incense and play, and they often go to the temple's famous delicious vegetarian food, spending a lot of money.

Tong Gang's selection of people is undoubtedly differentiated, giving the monks hope for a new life.

Now, the vast majority of monks only hate themselves for reciting sutras and enjoying the leisurely pleasure of being a decent monk in the past, but have not learned some practical skills, so that they have the opportunity to continue to live a better life at this moment, but they are not qualified to catch it. I can only wait gloomily, hoping that I can also hear some good orders.

"The third order of the marshal. There is a list of delicate craftsmen. Also go to the left and stand back. “

There are fewer who meet this rule. In total, a few monks hesitated to come out.

Although the temple is also equipped with a sword, and it is also necessary to build a Buddha statue or something, but it is a folk craftsman, and many good men and women are willing to use their own skills or forces to actively serve Buddhism. The vast majority of monasteries are not equipped with such monks.

Tong Gang deliberately looked at the faces of the senior monks who were still in the big team, and deliberately showed a mocking look on his face.

Those monks who were good at sitting and talking about the Tao and talking about the mysterious Zen machine in the past were also very famous and had a good life with this, and they were embarrassed and gloomy by Tong Gang.

"The fourth order of the marshal. The rest of the girls all stood on the left, still standing in a separate line. “

Dozens of haggard nuns walked over silently with joy in their eyes.

"The last order, all the warrior monks and those who are strong and powerful enough to fight twice, please stand on the right side of the general."

There are a lot of them coming out this time, whether they are positive or not, whether they are hesitant or hesitant, and a lot of them have come out one after another.
