Chapter 657: Hate

And here in Shannan, Cai Cong is meeting with Yu Chigong at the moment, and when the two of them see Cai Cong, they don't even have a smile, and they embarrass Yu Chigong is boss with a stiff face.

Wei Chigong didn't dare to put on a face for Cai Cong knowing that he was at a loss, and his unruly subordinates were eager to stuff their faces into their crotches.

Five surnames and seven families! Most of the time was swept into history by Cai Cong, and they, not only did they not pacify the Maitreya Sect, but the Maitreya Sect has grown stronger in the past six months, and now there are 40,000 soldiers and horses, shame them! I don't have a face to see anyone.

"You can hand over the military power, and from now on Shannan I have the final say, do you have any objections?"

The two sides sat down, and before they could greet each other, Cai Cong said coldly, not caring about Wei Chigong's face at all. Instead of being angry, Wei Chigong's subordinates were happy.

Although they didn't say it, they still had a lot of dissatisfaction with Wei Chigong in the past six months! Why did they join the army, it was not for the sake of meritorious service and to get ahead, but Wei Chigong just didn't give them a chance to get ahead.

"This is the Tiger Talisman, the old man has already prepared it." Wei Chigong said with a smile, pushing the tiger talisman and print on the desk to Cai Cong.

Cai Cong accepted it unceremoniously, and then issued the first military order.

"Ordered Wei Chi Gong to enter Beijing immediately, explain to His Majesty the Emperor what he has done in the past six months, and play His Majesty, and the Pingshan Southern Army will be taken over by Benhou."

"Wei Chi Gong took the order." Wei Chigong said indifferently, and at the end he asked with a smile, "If the old man doesn't hand over this tiger talisman to you today, what will you do?" ”

Cai Cong squinted at him for a while before shaking his head and said, "You are a smart person, you will not look for death." ”

Wei Chigong laughed and got up to leave, and his subordinates hurriedly saluted Cai Cong.

"Tell me about Shannan."

Cai Cong went straight to the point and didn't have the idea of wooing them.

"The situation is not ideal, there have been countless people in the skirmish in the past six months, we have won more and lost less, but there have been many casualties. Maitreya is too powerful, many people believe in Maitreya, and even many of the gentry are their followers.

Several times when we were chasing deserters, those squires actually came out with the people to block the way, and some damned ones even attacked our lone soldiers, so this battle was really embarrassing. ”

A seven-foot man clenched his fists and said bitterly, obviously he came to quell the chaos, but he was regarded as an enemy by the people, and no one would feel comfortable in his heart.

"If they stop you, you won't kill them?"

Cai Cong asked unhappily, this is a war, not a child's play, it is ridiculous that such a thing can happen!

"Grandpa Guo ordered us not to make a move against the people and the squire, saying that we should not provoke greater contradictions."

The man said in a low voice, although this was Wei Chigong's order, but at this time, there was always a feeling of shirking responsibility.

"I told the officers and men of the New Army a long time ago that war is a soldier's business, and the people should not be implicated. But if the people don't know whether they are alive or dead and want to get involved by themselves, then don't blame the butcher's knife of the court for being too sharp. ”

Cai Cong said calmly, and at the end of his mouth, the corners of his mouth hooked up a cruel smile, and said, "Give you a day, I don't care if it was the common people or the gentry who stopped you before, I will see their heads on the school field at this time tomorrow." ”

As soon as these words came out, the faces of all the people present changed drastically, and before they had even fought with the traitors, they were going to kill on a large scale, were they not afraid of arousing the anger of the people?

"Master Hou must not, in this way, everyone in Shannan will be pushed to the opposite side of us, which is extremely unfavorable to us."

"What Liu Hai said is reasonable, according to his subordinates, why don't we directly attack the Maitreya Sect, as long as they are eradicated, then naturally there will be no turmoil."

Wei Chigong's subordinates didn't dare to speak, but Cai Cong's students had no concerns in this regard and immediately opened their mouths to stop them.

Cai Cong looked at them and shook his head, sighed and said, "Do you know where the gap between you and Chu Moxuan and Long Chen is?" ”

Liu Hai and Chen Tingtao shook their heads, although they thought that they were no worse than the two, but in the master's heart, they were inferior to the two.

"If the two of them were here today, they would have persuaded me to wash the south of the mountain with blood and move another group of people over. Buddhism is located in a large terrain, most of the people believe in Buddhism, and there are countless pious people, so the root of the chaos is not in Maitreya, but in the Buddha in the hearts of the people.

You think that everything will be fine if you level the Maitreya Sect, but as long as those bald donkeys are willing, in less than two months, they can come up with some Guanyin Sect, Buddha Sect.

As for what pushes the people to Maitreya, I have never cared about this issue, and it is a big deal to kill them. What Datang wants is the people, and it doesn't need any Buddhists. Go ahead! Tomorrow Benhou will see the results. ”

Cai Cong said resentfully, he hated the demagogy of the Buddhists, and he hated the ignorance of the people, but he hated the incompetence of the officials here, if the officials were capable and majestic, the people would not be so easily agitated.

Wei Chigong's subordinates left the barracks in a murderous manner, and the anger they were holding in their hearts had long wanted to find a place to vent, but they hated Wei Chigong for always stopping them, leaving them helpless.

Wei Chigong stood in the distance and watched, he was a veteran who knew that he was going to kill people just by looking at them menacingly. He looked back at the camp and shook his head, how many of the people who killed too much could end well?

"Master Hou, you have set up arson and killed when you first arrived, and your subordinates are afraid that those local officials will impeach you."

Chen Tingtao said worriedly, and the faces of the others were full of uneasiness, killing all unarmed people! This was transmitted back to Chang'an, but I was afraid that the court was going to fry the pot.

"Ting Tao, I know your worries, but this is an unavoidable thing, as I just said, the people in this land believe in monks and Buddhas too much, I did this to kill the Buddha in their hearts, you don't want to think about it, how much time did it take from my eradication of the Li family to the prosperity of Maitreya Sect? It took less than a month! ”

Cai Cong said bitterly, how many of these rebels are tenants who are oppressed by the temple? While being squeezed, he used the only things in his home to make devout offerings to the Buddha, in Cai Cong's opinion, this is all pathological, and he wants to break it and stand up.

Chen Tingtao and the others were silent, although Cai Cong was the omnipotent master in their hearts, they did not agree with the master's approach, so they could only be silent.

"You're not saying that war is a soldier's business, and the people are blinded by ignorance, but that's not a reason for us to kill civilians."

Liu Hai said dryly with courage, and the eyes of others changed when they looked at him, this kid admired the master so much, and he dared to speak out against the master.

"Bangs! If a civilian wants to kill you, will you kill him? ”

Cai Cong asked lightly, Liu Hai's face changed greatly, he is not stupid, Cai Cong just said a word, he understood.
