After the great prosperity of the Pure Land Sect, Buddhism has completely changed, originally Buddhism talks about reincarnation, cause and effect, after all, it is all uplifting, and the service objects are also dignitaries and emperors and generals, it can be said that there is not much difference from Taoism, but when the Pure Land Sect sets its sights on ordinary people, this thing is too disturbing, especially what they preach about the Pure Land of Bliss, which is not much different from Christianity in essence.

And this thing has a very strong vitality, it can be said that the wildfire blows inexhaustibly, and it is used and instigated by careerists from time to time, which really makes the people in power of the past generations have a headache to death.

However, even such a Pure Land sect is still not useless, just like Christianity, although the medieval period brutally pressed the past of various countries under its body and ravaged and friction, in the Age of Discovery, played a crucial role in the explosive colonial invasion of Western civilization.

To put it bluntly, if this thing can be controlled, it will be good to cut off the enemy's head.

Qin Hao continued: "The minister thinks that the imperial court can strengthen the management of Buddhism, if you want to get the saucer, you must go to a foreign land to preach the scriptures for a period of time, those who educate the people in a foreign land can be called high monks, canonized national teachers or living Buddhas, it depends on how well they spread the Dharma in other races, but the roots of Buddhism must remain in our Central Plains." ”

"The Turks are better, after all, most of them have returned to the Khan, but the top priority is indeed that Tuyuhun, the minister heard that after the opening of the Hexi Corridor, all the larger caravans must prepare a toll to Tuyuhun, otherwise they will come to loot from time to time, the terrain is too high, and there are Gobi deserts everywhere, our soldiers in the Central Plains climbed up and did nothing to get dizzy first, the minister thought that the use of troops in this place is really a strategy, with Buddha, the effect is ten times that of using soldiers."

Li Shimin became more interested after hearing this, he didn't think that Qin Hao was talking about soldiers on paper, not to mention how many strategies and tactics were involved in the Three Kingdoms, just said that he suggested Chai Shao, Chen Bing, Xue Yantuo, a strategy, which shows the accuracy of this kid's vision, he himself is a soldier everyone, how can he not know that Tuyuhun is not a human fight at all? If it weren't for the geographical advantage, that small broken place would still be full of teeth, and Li Shimin would have killed him a long time ago.

Historically, it didn't take a few years for Li Shimin to be dissatisfied with the practice of Tugu Hun Yang Feng Yin, although the Tang Dynasty did not have the word Silk Road, but the Hexi Corridor is undoubtedly the lifeblood of the imperial court.

The result? Tuyuhun was honest, and a man named Tubo popped out again, taking advantage of Tuyuhun being disabled by the Tang Dynasty to unify the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, and the Tang Dynasty no longer had the ability to fight on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, and since then it has started a two-hundred-year campaign, which is called the Hundred Years War between Tang and Tubo in world history.

"The minister thinks that all the sects and sects of Buddhism can be ordered to be sent to Tuyuhun to spread the Buddha, and all the Buddhism will be spread to more than three tribes, and the court will canonize it as a living Buddha, and at the same time, I will say that the secret spies of the Yamen sect will be disguised as people in the Buddhist sect to infiltrate it, the religious soil of the grassland civilization is far more fertile than the agricultural civilization, and it is not difficult for the living Buddha to override the tribal leader, and Buddhism is now each family and faction to express their own opinions, and their doctrines and concepts are different, if there is no official uniform above them, there must be many contradictions between the living Buddhas, the minister's secret spy provoked again, and those brainless barbarians still didn't fight? When the ideas of Buddhism are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, I am afraid, no one will be able to attack and unify the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, and when the time comes, whoever is obedient, we will support whom, ask for money to give money, and send troops, and it will not be long before Tuyuhun will be surnamed Tang. ”

These are not Qin Hao's nonsense, because his method is basically learned according to Kangxi.

There was once a topic on the Internet, evaluating who is the first emperor in history between Kangxi and Li Shimin, among which the most important argument of Qing fans is that Kangxi ruled the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, which the Tang Dynasty has not been able to conquer for a hundred years.

This is really a bit of a high opinion of Kangxi, Kangxi is actually just picking up the fruits of Li Shimin's victory, because when Li Shimin married his daughter, he also married Buddhism, at that time Songtsen Gampo had two wives, one was Princess Wencheng, who brought the Pure Land Sect and the Faxiang Sect, and the other was Nepalese, bringing the original Tianzhu Buddhism, and as soon as everyone combined, there was today's Tibetan Buddhism.

The Tubo warriors who once made the Tang Dynasty and the Great Food, the world's largest empires, unable to do anything, were defeated not so much by Kangxi as by Buddhism, and it was through the canonization of the Living Buddha and the Panchen Lama that the Qing Dynasty finally conquered that high land.

Kangxi can use the method, is there no soil for Datang to use? Taking advantage of the fact that there are still two completely different ethnic groups on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, taking advantage of the fact that the prestige of the Heavenly Khan is still enough to make foreign races admire and fear, and taking advantage of the fact that now is the most powerful time in China for 5,000 years, this real henchman will be a trouble, one! Net! Beat! Exhaust!

Li Shimin is undoubtedly also a master of spy warfare, and he was very interested in Qin Hao's proposal, and after the two discussed many details, they finally decided, do it, try it, those monks really dare to die for the canonization of the living Buddha.

This strategy is not only applicable on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, but also applicable to the Turkic people, as long as they are nomads, the resistance to such things as religion is far lower than that of agricultural civilization, because their court is too far away from the people, and they are all in their own way on weekdays, which is like the Central Plains, there are state capitals, county orders, and righteousness, and no matter how big the god is, it is not as big as the emperor.

In fact, the Western Regions originally had a Buddhist culture, and once upon a time the spread of Buddhism in that place was faster than that of Tibet, but it is a pity that the national strength of the Tang Dynasty was not good, and the management ability of the Western Regions became lower and lower.

Now that the Turks have newly descended, it is the time to whip them and they dare not resist, is there a more suitable soil for experimentation?

So Li Shimin asked: "I understand what you mean, it's just that this national teacher, who should I canonize?" Is there a meritorious Master Hongren who sacrifices holy flowers? ”

Qin Hao said with a smile: "Master Hongren is only preaching in our Central Plains after all, it is not suitable, the minister knows that a great master has a very high status in Buddhism, and he is going to Tianzhu to learn scriptures at this time, and he is promoting Buddhism along the way, which is very representative, and at this time others should be in the Western Regions, Chen thinks that he is more suitable." ”

"Oh? Are you talking about the Great Ci'en Temple, Master Xuanzang, who is known as the first day of Buddhism for thousands of years? ”

"Exactly."
