Chapter 293: The Missionary
The development and growth of the Roman Empire has been accompanied by years of continuous wars, in which the most people died were young and middle-aged men, and the proportion of the population of the Roman Empire was also seriously unbalanced. Liu Ze and the others were obviously aware of this, but this was not a problem, and a secret order flew into the hands of Cao Cao and Jiang Wei. Cao Cao and Jiang Wei saw the secret order and immediately complied with it.
Millions of young men of different races, in a team of three or five hundred men, all on fast horses, sheltered themselves in the mountains and forests, avoided the Roman cities, entered the Roman countryside, and launched a frenzied plunder, targeting young women and goods.
More than half a year passed in a blink of an eye, and the merchants gathered in Persia, and after getting the Dragon Tiger Pill, they took a boat along the Mediterranean Sea and entered the interior of Rome and began to dump the Dragon Tiger Pill.
After a few months, young women from all over the country also came one after another, and the fine wine made by Cao Ang was already piled up like a hill, Liu Ye arranged for people, carriages and horses, so that the women carried the fine wine, rushed to Rome, opened taverns, green houses, and so on. If the funds are insufficient, Liu Ye has money in his hand anyway, and if he takes out some of it, it can be regarded as a loan to them.
The Roman Empire was experiencing the feeling of fire and ice. In the eastern region, horse bandits often harassed, plundered people and robbed wealth. If a large number of officers and soldiers go to the conquest, the horse bandits whistle and scatter; When a small group of officers and soldiers encountered, the horse bandits shot arrows, and in an instant, the horse bandits gathered, and the small group of officers and soldiers were quickly eaten. The horse bandits were attacking from east to west, gathering and scattering, moving quickly, and there was no fixed territory, which made the commanders of the various legions in the eastern region very troubled. In the western region, Dahan's businessmen entered various cities, rented houses, opened halls and buildings, and sold Dahan's special dragon and tiger pills, and real estate prices soared; Soon after, another group of women came, also busy renting a house and looking for a place. Property prices in western Rome have risen again and again, to the delight of the propertied class.
With the help of Cheng Yu and others, and under the genius operation of Pang Tong, a new doctrine came into being. The content of Protestantism, mainly Confucianism, blends the advanced ideas of Taoism, Legalism, Buddhism, Moism, and Yin-Yang Schools, and advocates respecting heaven and law, the world, and all living beings, all of whom are the people of God, and God sends His messengers to the world to govern the world in order to make all living beings live better. All the people of Heaven must obey the teachings of the Messenger of Heaven, uphold his position, submit to his rule, and do not have any disrespect for the Messenger. In order to better educate all sentient beings, the Messenger of Heaven sent his followers to travel the world and spread the teachings.
Liu Ze and the Minister of Military Aircraft repeatedly pondered the doctrines of Protestantism for more than a month, and on the whole felt that they had surpassed the existing doctrines of the various factions of the Han Dynasty and had kept pace with the times, and gladly ordered to preach in accordance with them.
Pang Tong was appointed archbishop of the Protestant doctrine, with the title of Marquis, and was in charge of all matters relating to the propagation of Protestantism. Pang Tong was first given a heavy responsibility, and the spring breeze was proud, and he asked Liu Ze to give the name of the Protestantism, Liu Ze thought for a while, and wrote down three big characters: Yanhuangjiao.
Pang Tong began to recruit troops, and thanks to the strong support of the government, Pang Tong quickly gathered 500 students. Pang Tong did it himself and taught it personally. After a lot of tongues and endless preaching, most of the 500 students accepted the new teachings. After a short period of training, Pang Tong selected the outstanding ones among the 500 students, and as the main missionaries in each region, each of them was equipped with 10 to 20 missionaries, and embarked on a journey to various places.
Pang Tong's eyes were set on Persia. Persia, the front line against Rome, was an excellent location for the spread of Protestantism with its diverse population and diverse personalities.
Pang Tong led a large number of men to Persia, and along the way he felt that the Han Dynasty was prosperous, and he didn't know how many times better than before the Yellow Turban Rebellion. The road leading from Beijing to the Western Regions is wide and stable, the roadbed is solid, and the road surface is paved with Wuhe soil, which can be passed unimpeded even after heavy rain. Pang Tong secretly regretted that he had been fascinated and jumped out to assist Liu Bei in the first place? If you learn Zhuge Kongming and join Liu Ze's command as soon as possible, you can't say that you are also a big member of the party, and you will be powerful in all directions. It's a pity, the road is chosen by yourself, and you can go back, but time can never turn back.
Pang Tong shook his huge head, leaving everything he thought behind, Saiong lost his horse and knew whether he was blessed or not, he lived in seclusion in the mountains and forests, studied hard behind closed doors, and made great wishes, isn't it also successful? Wolong and phoenix chicks, Kong Ming, Kong Ming, now Lao Tzu has found another way and founded Protestantism, maybe the future achievements will not be under you, when the time comes, the ranking of this Wolong and phoenix chicks will be changed, I am the real Wolong.
Not to mention Pang Tong's journey to the west, since Pang Tong left, Jia Xu found Liu Ze and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, I look at Pang Tong, this person, fame and fortune are extremely strong, and now he is the archbishop of Protestantism, and the old minister is worried that he will use the opportunity of preaching, and the Internet is popular, and I am afraid that something unexpected will happen." ”
Liu Ze was silent for a while, secretly thinking that Pang Tong, a short-lived ghost, if it weren't for his arrival, I am afraid that he would have reported to Lord Yama earlier, since this person followed Liu Bei, he competed with Zhuge Liang everywhere, but it is a pity that the gap between his talent and Zhuge Liang is too big, and his limelight temperament led to his death in Fengpo and ended his life prematurely. Now let him spread Protestantism, the first few years must have been desperate, and in his heart, he still wants to overshadow Zhuge Liang's limelight. As for his use of missionary work to buy people's hearts and want to learn from Zhang Jiao and others, I am afraid that he does not have the courage to do so now, but people's hearts are unpredictable, and Jia Xu's statement is not unreasonable.
Liu Ze nodded and said to Jia Xu: "Mr. Wenhe is reasonable, I will inform Liu Hu, let the secret guard pay attention to Pang Tong's actions at any time, once I find that the signs are wrong, I can use him or abolish him." ”
Jia Xu saw that Liu Ze knew what he wanted, nodded, and seemed to be a little speechless, Liu Ze asked: "Mr. has something to say, it's okay to say it directly." ”
Jia Xu sighed and said slowly: "What the old minister said, presumably the emperor already knew. Now that the Han Dynasty is prosperous and the people are rich, some officials, in the face of the rolling red dust, cannot be self-clean, wantonly collude with illegal businessmen, make huge profits, and even worse, think that the emperor is far away and want to stand on their own. ”
Jia Xu said these situations, how can Liu Ze not know, the so-called clear water pond does not raise fish, the fingers of the official are a little longer, as long as it is not too much of a fault, it will pass with one eye closed, but if it is too much, touching Liu Ze's bottom line, and moving his hands, Liu Ze is also doing everything, basically raiding the house, the officials are all killed, the family is not a slave, and the army is on the frontier.
Liu Ze said: "People's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants, and the Han Dynasty's money for officials at all levels has risen again and again, and these silver money is enough for them to feed their families." Unexpectedly, some of them are still not satisfied, officials and businessmen collude, tyranny and harm the people, and my secret guard is not an ornament. Mr. Wenhe, it seems that he needs to make an example of him and deter him. ”
Jia Xu said: "Corrupt officials and corrupt officials have always been criticized by the people, and the emperor's early decision is of great benefit to cleaning up people's hearts." ”
Liu Ze said with a smile: "Yushi Taitian Yuanhao is upright, I will issue an order to order him to thoroughly investigate the officials in the world." ”
Jia Xu smiled and said, "The emperor is sage." ”
