Chapter 661: Replacing the Old with the New
In a special war, special methods should be used, and Yang Lin used his personal power in the northwest to gather soldiers and horses of all ethnic groups.
Various ethnic groups, cities, and countless young people in the northwest, despite the obstruction of their elders, smashed all kinds of gods and statues in their homes and temples, held Yang Xuejingyi high, and joined the army to prepare to fight this sacred war in the grassland.
Originally, it was strictly forbidden to smash the official offices in the northwest without permission, as if they could not see at the same time, turning a blind eye, and the leaders of all ethnic groups took the lead in taking a clear stand and expressing their attitude, always believing in Yang Xue and Zhengyi Christianity.
Dangxiang Qiqiang, the living Buddha of Tibet, the Uighur chief, the leader of Khotan, and the chief of Kereh all came to Yinzhou to meet Yang Lin.
Countless young people enthusiastically joined the army, shed their original clothes and hairstyles, and took pride in speaking Chinese.
In the past few years, the missionary work in the Northwest has caused hundreds of years of inherent beliefs, polities, and ecology to collapse at a jaw-dropping speed.
A new wave of thought, like a hurricane, swept across the land.
Song Jiang, who had just arrived on the ground in Yinzhou, was from the northwest, and his merit was to unite all the ethnic groups here, sweep through the Qarakhanid by the way, and take back the entire Western Regions.
The scene along the way surprised him, as if this area that could be suppressed was ignited all of a sudden.
And the tighter the press, the higher the bullet, the people who have eliminated all kinds of barriers, and admire the richness and advanced civilization of the Central Plains, make them eager to draw a line with the customs of the old era.
By the time Song Jiang entered Yinzhou City, the situation had developed to a more serious stage, under the command of Yang Lin, the Yeluo Department took the lead, and the people in the clan began to burn the "Golden Light Sutra", "Lotus Sutra Pumen Pin", "Maitreya Sutra Sutra", "Sutra of Zunsheng Dharani", "Heaven and Earth Eight Yang Divine Mantra".
These cultural essences, which have exhausted the strength of the elite of the whole clan and have been used for hundreds of years, have almost all been burned.
Song Jiang looked at the chaotic scene on the street from the back of his horse, and an impetuous breath came to his face, which made him very worried.
Suina got out of the carriage, even more confused, thinking that the people here were going to rebel.
Yang Ke'er and Yang Mo'er were young and shrunk aside and didn't dare to speak, Su Yina glanced at them, smiled angrily, stretched out her hand to open the curtain, and called a guard.
"Ma'am?"
"Call Mrs. Song."
Song Jiang was in a hurry to see Yang Lin, listened to the guard's words, turned the horse's head impatiently, came to the carriage, and asked, "Madam, what's the matter with Song Jiang?" ”
"Taiwei, these people outside are so noisy, but what happened to him, Da Lang, is he okay?"
Song Jiang didn't know the bottom in his heart, but Yang Lin was definitely fine, after all, if something happened to him, it would have spread a long time ago.
Moreover, on the streets, those soldiers and horses who did not act were all Yang Lin's henchmen, and the various patriarchs had long been tied to their necks by Shaozai's interests.
He chuckled lightly and said, "Madam, don't worry, we are about to see Shaozai." ”
After Song Jiang finished speaking, he was afraid that these ladies would ask again, and said loudly: "Hurry up and go to see Shaozai." ”
Su Keye of Yinzhou City had already prepared a mansion for Yang Lin, which was very luxurious. It was originally the palace of the Western Xia royal family, but Yinzhou was recovered by the Great Song Dynasty a long time ago, and no one has lived there.
After Su Keye moved in, he greatly repaired this place, but he didn't live there, leaving Yang Lin to live here when he came occasionally.
In the small courtyard, Yang Lin held a small wooden stick and measured the small stones on the ground.
Song Jiang hurriedly stepped in, and he didn't care about saluting, so he asked, "Shaozai, what's going on outside?" ”
Yang Lin smiled, pointed to the small pebbles on the ground, and said, "I will make waves here, stir up this quagmire that has not moved for thousands of years, and let them regain their vitality." ”
"You see, this is Yinzhou, this is Xiazhou, this is Xingzhou, and there are still two of the five states that have not been completely burned."
Song Jiang was confused when he heard it, making waves is not a good word, and what is burning...
He took a step forward, leaned closer and asked, "This is all Shaozai's handiwork?" Then the lower official will be relieved. ”
"What do you have to worry about, I opened the old silk road in the Western Regions, as well as the ancient tea horse road, in fact, I have controlled the people's livelihood and economy here, they want a piece of the pie, it is our most obedient loyal dog. eradication of Western Xia; Sweep away the Qarakhanid; the conquest of Tibet; Wipe out the Hexi Uighurs. The entire Northwest, disobediently, has been cleaned up. ”
Yang Lin was full of confidence, Song Jiang didn't know, how he didn't know.
What seems to be deep-rooted in this world is actually a bubble, that is, ideas, and how many currents of thought in future generations are all leaders who have seized power, and there will soon be a movement that will rapidly change the spiritual outlook of a nation.
If the next battle of the grassland is won, the future northwest will be its own world, even more reliable than the Central Plains.
Song Jiang was still a little worried, frowned, and said, "Shaozai, you didn't see you on the road when you came, and there was chaos everywhere. The roadside was full of stone statues that had been knocked down and smashed, and many monks and monks had suffered... With such chaos, isn't the legal system in the northwest going farther and farther away? ”
Yang Lin was silent for a moment, and then said with a wipe of his eyelids: "When the world is turned upside down, it is inevitable that there will be some radical behavior, which is inevitable. Gongmei, just like straightening a canal, there may be crops that have just been planted on the road, and there are ponds that store fish fry in the area, and we can't wait until the crops are ripe and the fish grow up before digging the canal. ”
"If you want to achieve great things, you can't be limited to small things."
After Yang Lin finished speaking, he breathed a long sigh of relief and said: "I can't afford to lose this battle, the northwest soldiers and horses are the top priority, the party, the Uighurs, the Tibetans... They are all soldiers, and I will use the fastest speed to make them die for me, fight for me, and even ask them to turn their backs on the tribe for me. ”
Song Jiang's mind was a little chaotic, these demagogic methods seemed to him to be a bit dangerous, like a flood beast, which was difficult to control.
But Yang Lin was very confident in his heart, and this violent power was finally in his hands.
In the history books of later generations, he has seen it too many times, and there is nothing more effective than instigating a holy war and then winning it.
How many powerful leaders have played this hand, and it has become a turning point in the entire national process.
He comforted Song Jiang for a few words, and then asked, "How are the affairs of Youyan materials and the people of Goryeo and Dongying?" ”
Song Jiang shook his head and said, "Don't worry, Shaozai, when the lower officials come, together with Bai Shizhong, they will issue an edict through Menxia Province." Ordered all localities to secondment the carriages and horses, and make small yellow flags all over the place, and all the carriages and horses that planted the flags should give way to officials and businessmen along the way. ”
Yang Lin nodded and said, "Youyan Yunnei is okay, after all, our grain route is safe, I am thinking now, how to solve the problem of carrying grain from the Northwest Army into the grassland in the last little time." ”
