Chapter 124: Zhou Qun and His Pangu Sect

Just when Zhao Yun was busy observing the enemy situation and making the next step. The shouts of killing from Ji County suddenly came.

He could guess that it was Liang Hu's attack by taking advantage of the explosion. It seems that the old bird is not so stupid, and knows how to strike when outsiders are in chaos. However, I am afraid that the forces in his hands are pitiful, and it is really difficult to say whether he can effectively defeat the other party.

However, at this time, something unexpected happened to Zhao Yun. In the midst of the shouts and killings, there were suddenly more noisy shouts of the people. Zhao Yun immediately furrowed his eyebrows, he was worried about whether this battle would affect innocent civilians.

However, when he pricked up his ears and listened carefully for a while, he realized that things did not seem to be what he had imagined.

For though the voices were noisy, and there were voices of men, women, and children, they were shouting the same thing, and it was evident that someone had organized them to do so.

Since there are people organizing, it means that they are still under the protection of order, and it seems that there will be no personal danger. It's just that the words they shouted were a little strange, what "Heavenly thunder descended to the world, punish Xianbei", what "Pangu God punished, five thunders hit the top". It's all something like a mystical proverb.

After the war, Zhao Yuncai inquired about the cause of this matter from various channels. It turned out that the young man named Zhou Qun who came with him had become a small prestige figure in Ji County at this time, and his prestige did not come from the brawls like street ruffians, but from his knowledge.

Ever since he listened to the conversation between Suning and Zhang Jiao in Taolinsai, Zhou Qun had the idea of preaching on his own. At that time, Pangu, which Suning intentionally or unintentionally mentioned to him, became the basic material for his preaching.

When he arrived in Liangzhou and began to understand Suning and the Weishui Company under his rule from more aspects, the framework of Pangu Sect was also fleshed out little by little.

Since then, this religion has been circulating in the community, and the number of believers at first was not large, after all, the teachings propagated by Zhou Qun were too strange. In particular, the Big Bang theory he learned from Suning and others is obviously nonsense in the eyes of ordinary people. However, he then revised the direction of education and slowly infiltrated the mind of credit with pragmatism. In his teachings, he pointedly pointed out that innovation is the will of God that remains after Pangu opened the world. It is the will that we, human beings, who have bathed in the blessings of Pangu, must inherit.

Those strange workshops that appeared on the edge of Weishui are the product of adhering to this will, which can bring a better life to human beings, which is also the concrete embodiment of God's will to continue to bless us.

God's will does not harm the faithful. Rapid development will bring about dizzying changes. The boom that came from outside the same city just now is also one of the products of innovation.

Therefore, there is no need for the devout believers to panic, because it is a punishment for the greedy people who know only plunder and do not know production and innovation.

His teachings also played a good role in restoring order in the city of Ji after the explosion sounded. This also greatly shortened the time for Liang Hu to gather soldiers and horses.

Therefore, Liang Hu was very appreciative of the young man's performance, but the young man was not satisfied with his performance.

His followers, though indoctrinated by the teachings, soon regained their peace. But as the self-proclaimed sect leader, when the believers asked what kind of innovation was outside, he could only smile awkwardly, saying that he would have to consult those who were learned to know.

This is another important part of his teachings. Although the Heavenly Avenue exists all around us, not everyone can parse the mystery of it. Therefore, everyone should face the way of heaven with reverence, and humbly ask others for advice.

Some believers have some difficulty understanding this, believing that the person who came to guide them on behalf of the great god Pangu must be an omniscient being. Even if you encounter something you don't know, you should try to prevaricate the past. However, this guy in front of him actually admitted it with a big grin, which is really majestic.

However, more believers, especially those with a slight cultural foundation, are very supportive of Zhou Qun's statement.

After they comprehended the teachings, they generally had the view that the great god Pangu made rules for our universe when he was dying, and now we only need to understand these rules and then try to use them to live a good life, but after all, these rules were created by gods, how can ordinary mortals be able to understand them, so we mortals must gather together to be able to make discoveries and inventions. The wisdom of one or two people seemed insignificant in front of the vast Heavenly Dao.

Those saints who claim to be known for their lives are obviously just a group of charlatans.

So Zhou Qun was in the expectation of many believers, and quickly entered the flower planter to find those university scholars in his mind.

Soon, Hu Ying from the Northern Song Dynasty explained to him: "It should have been made by the explosion of something called gunpowder." ”

During the Northern Song Dynasty, although gunpowder had not yet been widely used in the military, it had penetrated into people's lives relatively deeply. Every year on the New Year's Day and Shangyuan Festival, there will be people in Bianjing City who set off puppets filled with gunpowder. So he still has a little understanding of this point.

It's just that not long after his point of view was put forward, it was opposed by Sun Jianai.

"That's definitely not gunpowder, where can gunpowder be so powerful, it should be explosives made by Westerners. The foreign devils in the workshop have never stopped to pour over those strange things, which may be one of the products. ”

Zhou Qun was more inclined to Sun Jiamai's explanation, and he still remembered that when he sent you to explain astronomical problems to him, most of the names he said were some foreigners. After all, he was a young man, and he had an instinctive curiosity about those strange names, so he was still impressed by them.

Although he didn't realize that he had subtly formed a concept that foreigners' technology was more advanced than the local cognition. But this did not prevent him from making his own judgment, which proved to be extremely close to the facts afterwards.

What's more, when Sun Jianai explained this, he also cited many strange things that happened in his hometown when he was attacked by foreigners, and the Qing Dynasty people at that time were more superstitious, not only thinking that photography technology would take away people's souls, but even the gunpowder technology invented by their ancestors did not seem to know much.

It was during this process that Zhou Qun heard something like five thunders from Sun Jianai. Naturally, he would not use these superstitious words to deceive his followers, but he knew that the group of Xianbei people outside had always been a group of people who revered the superstitious ghosts and gods of God.

In that case, it is necessary to pay the price for their ignorance.

So Zhou Qun found Liang Hu and made a bold suggestion to him.

At this time, the old bird had already assembled his army and was about to open the city gates and go out to defeat the new patients who had just flaunted their might. In high spirits, he was not going to deal with the young man, but the young man only used a few short words to attract the attention of the old bird.

"Can you make the Xianbei people more chaotic?" Relying on his good impression of Zhou Qun, the old bird agreed with Zhou Qun's idea without listening to the words. After all, the reason why he was able to lead the troops to attack this time was also because the Xianbei people fell into chaos after the explosion.

If you can make the other party more chaotic, it will undoubtedly increase your chances of winning this attack. After all, the Han soldiers who stayed in Hanyang County were all old, weak, sick and disabled who had been eliminated, and those elite soldiers had naturally been sent to the front line of Beidi County.

Zhou Qun's heart was still very simple, of course he wouldn't have as many thoughts as the old bird, so after obtaining the old bird's consent, he immediately took a cheerful step and led his followers to climb the seemingly solid city wall.

Because Zhou Qun has not yet added brainwashing patriotic education to his teachings. Therefore, this group of believers inevitably looked a little nervous after climbing the city wall.

However, their fear of death quickly dissipated after a few words of consolation from Zhou Qun, and then Zhou Jun assigned them a task. Believers did not understand the content of the mission at first, after all, it was a misconception that was often denounced as wrong in some doctrines. However, when Zhou Qun said that it was just a threatening word to scare the Xianbei people. The people of Liangzhou instantly burned with hatred.

They who live in Liangzhou have no blood feud with the nomadic tribes. As soon as they heard that it was for the purpose of dealing with the enemy, they naturally had no reason to refuse to participate.

So there was that shout, and some Liangzhou people who were familiar with the life of the Xianbei people also used the language of the Xianbei tribe. Although this made the overall seafood uneven and noisy, it unexpectedly made the Xianbei people outside the city quickly understand what they meant.

"It turns out that this is God's punishment for us, no wonder there is such a big commotion!"

"What did we Xianbei people do wrong, how could we attract Tengger's punishment!"

"Then you said that outside of Tengger, who has so much power?"

"The Han people are often able to construct some strange things, maybe they are ......"

"What nonsense are you talking about? It's not a day or two since we deal with people, and over the years, when have you seen the Han people use such powerful weapons? ”

The two thousand Xianbei cavalry around Bu Dugen, as well as the one thousand cavalry he sent out to hunt down Zhao Yun, didn't take long to slowly fall into a greater panic in the midst of similar dialogues.

The first to fall into chaos and let out a terrible cry were the cavalry who were chasing Zhao Yun. Most of them had witnessed the explosion at close range, and some of the Xianbei people who had been knocked over by the explosion and even had no bodies left behind, had been drinking with them yesterday.

Such drastic changes were obviously difficult for them to accept, some people rushed to the corpses of their comrades and wailed, some people looked at the burning houses around them in a daze, slowly devouring their confidence in the victory of the war, and more people were at a loss, they didn't know how to save their comrades who were still moaning, and they didn't know how to face the loud bang just now.

Not long afterward, the wailing here exacerbated the confusion among the Xianbei people on the periphery of the city walls. It didn't take long for their confusion to become more difficult to control as the number of people increased.

Budugen angrily waved the long whip in his hand, trying to restore his subordinates to their usual order, but his usually obedient subordinates only cared about wailing at the moment, and no one carried out his orders.

Budugen sighed, it seemed that if he wanted to restore the order just now, he could only wait slowly for them to calm down. But the shouts of killing from the direction of the city gate were getting closer and closer, and the cunning Han people were obviously not prepared to leave him much time.

Bu Dugen scolded fiercely, turned the horse's head and fled first, his subordinates saw that their commander actually took the road and fled, where would they stay and fight with the Han soldiers. So they turned their horses' heads one after another, ready to follow the example of their own boss and escape, but they chose a variety of directions, according to the experience left by the struggle on the grassland, if they choose to flee with their own boss, then they may become the target of the enemy's key pursuit, but it is not conducive to their own survival, so except for those very loyal soldiers, most of the others will not choose to flee with their own commander.

Bu Dugen obviously expected this, but he was not in the mood to care what those soldiers thought, anyway, he was the first to escape, and the Han army might not be able to find himself in time, and those soldiers who scattered and fled for their lives might attract the pursuit of the Han army. Wouldn't this be conducive to your escape?

So when the generals and soldiers were happy, this powerful Xianbei warriors suddenly turned into birds and beasts.

It's just that unlike the soldiers who blindly escaped, Budugen still had his own choice at this time. That was to go to his henchman slave Kebineng to take refuge temporarily.

Kebineng was leading 3,000 cavalry at the moment, besieging those workshops next to Weishui. I just don't know if anything will happen to that battle that is determined to be won after that loud bang?

At this time, Zhao Yun was also on his way there, but his destination was the wolf castle next to him. Just now, when he took advantage of the chaos of the Xianbei people, he grabbed a horse and galloped away, but those Xianbei people didn't react. However, there were a few frightened Xianbei cavalrymen, thinking that there was chaos on their side, and they chose to flee in all directions like Zhao Yun. Zhao Yun laughed when he saw it.

But after a few sticks of incense, his laughter was released. Because after climbing to the head of Wolf Castle, he clearly saw the Weishui Workshop that was about to be breached.
