Chapter 466: Sweeping Nanyang II
In the end, Chen Tianxi did not obey Li Wenchang's order to massacre the Moluo tourists, and after consulting with Xue Yao and a group of generals, it was decided to divide the captured 30,000 Moluo tourists into six major departments, each with a chief and two deputy chiefs, as the slave department under the jurisdiction of the Puluo Governor's Mansion for driving.
He ordered the Six Slave Tribes to build six slave cities with high earthen walls one mile away from each other and one person high earthen walls to live in, confiscate all the weapons of the Slave Tribe, keep only agricultural tools, and prohibit them from doing business.
Xue Yao named the six slave departments in turn, A, B, C, D, and Wuji, of which the four departments of A, B, C, and D were only responsible for clearing wasteland and farming, and seventy percent of the harvest needed to be handed over to the governor's office, and they were responsible for paving roads and building bridges during the slack. Ebu is responsible for mining, such as the island's rich gold, silver and tin deposits and coastal pearls, and exchanging the monthly mining volume for food and cloth for daily life. His own department was responsible for logging, specializing in teak, mahogany, and nanmu, which were the best for building sea vessels, and also harvested grain and cloth from the Governor's Mansion on a monthly basis.
During the war, the Six Slaves also had to undertake military service and hard labor.
As a former victorious army of more than 20,000 soldiers, the population of the country is definitely not only more than 30,000 people in the city, but more people are widely distributed in villages in the countryside.
After the reorganization of the Liunu Department, Chen Tianxi took the surrendered King of Moluoyou to surrender the villages of Moluoyou in various places, and those who did not surrender were eliminated by force, and after slaughtering a few villages that dared to resist, the effect of surrender was significantly improved.
All the villages of Moluoyou who were recruited were relocated together and incorporated into the Liunu Department for the Tang army to monitor and requisition.
At the same time, Li Yexu, the governor of the Governor of Dianzhou, led 2,000 guards and 4,000 united soldiers to also march upriver along the Musi River with the help of the South China Sea Fleet, and reached the city of Sri Buddha, the capital of Sri Buddha's death.
Knowing that the city was outnumbered by the menacing Tang army, Sri Buddha led more than 3,000 remnants of his army to flee westward in panic, crossing mountains and mountains to Bengkulu on the west coast of Sumatra.
Li Yexu did not spend a single soldier to take the city of Sri Buddha's death, for this city with a population of more than 40,000, many wealthy merchants gathered, and countless gold, silver, treasures and spices piled up in the city, it is unexpected.
Li Yexu's army plundered for ten days, and in addition to the Chinese merchants in the city from being spared from being looted, the wealth of Tianzhu, Zhenla, Linyi, Persian merchants and the deceased Sri Buddha was plundered.
With the Tang army, which had no military discipline, ransacked the city frantically, many soldiers were not satisfied with the wealth in their hands, looking for fun in the city, wantonly killing people and raping (harmonious) ** women, and arson everywhere.
Sri Buddha died as a Buddhist country and the academic center of Nanyang Buddhism, and there are many Buddhist temples with golden walls built in the city.
In the second year of Xianheng (670), the monk Yijing set out from Guangzhou to Tianzhu to seek Buddhism, and when he passed by Sri Buddha twice on his way back and forth, he stayed here for nearly three years, engaged in translating and copying Sanskrit scriptures.
This shows how prosperous Buddhism flourished after Sri Buddha's death.
Relying on the death of Sri Buddha to dominate the South Seas for decades, the sea trade gained huge wealth, Sumatra and the surrounding islands are rich in gold mines, and Sri Buddha died as a devout Buddhist. As a result, the Buddha statues in the Buddhist temples in the city are all made of gold without exception, inlaid with various treasures, which dazzles the Tang soldiers who rushed into the Buddhist temples and don't know how to start.
Many monks in the Buddhist temple cried and fled in all directions, for fear of running slow and falling under the knife of the Tang army.
Six temples in the city cover an area of dozens of acres, the decoration is the most luxurious and rich, the Buddhist buildings are the most magnificent, and the Buddhist temple of 1,000 monks jointly asks to see Li Yexu, asking him to restrain the soldiers and protect the tranquility of the Buddhist hall from being destroyed by the rebels.
It is inevitable that there are also Buddhist believers among the generals of the Tang Army, and they also made suggestions to Li Yexu that the soldiers should be restrained from looting the temple and the personal safety of the monks should be protected.
It's a pity that Li Yexu is not a believer in Buddhism, and he even has a lot of disgust with Buddhism after arriving in Nanyang.
Any secular ruling class will not have a good impression when they see that the people of a country are not clothed (the weather in Nanyang is hot, and it is indeed necessary to wear clothes all over their bodies, but in the eyes of the Chinese, this is indeed a barbaric image), but they rush to dedicate their wealth to Buddhist temples, and the decoration of Buddhist temples is resplendent and jeweled, and the monks rely on many believers and even interfere in the government.
Li Yexu directly scolded the generals who believed in Buddhism, and ordered them to personally lead the team to demolish the Buddhist temple in the city, and bring me all the valuable things in the Buddhist temple, no matter what they were.
"Whoever doesn't strictly enforce the orders of the Pontus governor, don't blame the Pontus governor for cutting off his head for public display."
Li Yexu's cruel eyes swept a glance at the generals who believed in Buddhism, frightened a few people into silence, and hurriedly led the team to copy the Buddhist temple.
A group of respected hosts took a look, this is still worth it, really let Tang Jun copy it, isn't our hundreds of years of accumulation all cheaper Tang Jun?
Anxiously moved out of the Buddha, Guanyin Bodhisattva, and thousands of Buddhas to dissuade Li Yexu from recklessly offending the many Buddhas of Buddhism and boundless Buddhism.
"Li Dudu, do you want to go to the Nine Layers of Hell after death, and you will not be reincarnated, and you will suffer from the fire of the Nine Shadows for eternity?"
"Hahaha......"
Li Yexu laughed, "There are three emperors and five emperors of China, blessed by the ancestors of the heavens, why are you afraid of the Hujiao Buddha who pretends to be a god and deceives the world?" Maybe the nine-layer hell of your Buddhism was demolished by the ten halls of the underworld? ”
"You, you ......"
A group of fat-headed, big-eared, round-haired hosts were so angry that they were so angry that they were speechless.
"Come on, put all these big bald heads in a certain place, post-war construction is the best labor."
With a wave of his hand, the wolf-like Tang army swarmed up, tied five or six hundred oily bald heads with their hands behind their backs, and sent them to the prisoner of war camp as slaves for temporary detention.
The big bald heads were dumbfounded, some of them cried and shouted along the way, and some of them put their hands together and prayed for the Buddha's blessing. The final result was inevitably that he was sent to a prisoner of war camp by the Tang army and suffered from flesh and skin.
The governor gave the order, and the soldiers of the Tang Army, who had a trace of awe of the Buddhist temple and did not dare to wantonly destroy and plunder, were excited and excited.
In front of the golden Buddha, the golden pagoda in the eyes of the eyes into a fortune of gold, keep it for people to kneel down to worship is better than to rush home to live a good life, but also the Buddha to take care of the suffering people in the world.
The red-eyed soldiers rushed to all the Buddhist temples in the city, and the six most magnificent Buddhist temples were the objects of key care.
The Golden Buddha and the Golden Pagoda are too tall and too heavy to be moved?
It doesn't matter, the steel knives in the hands of the soldiers are not burning sticks, and under the command of the officers, the overly tall golden Buddha and golden pagoda will be dismantled into eight pieces.
What to do with the crossing?
It doesn't matter, immediately a group of soldiers with daggers carefully scraped the gold on it.
What about the nuns in the temple?
"What else can I do? The white-skinned and good-looking ones were all sent back to the barracks by a certain anti-Japanese resistance. ”
The soldiers who were going to inquire about it scolded back, and the soldiers around him instantly showed a look of "you understand, I understand, everyone understands".
In other words, Li Yexu is not as ruthless as Li Wenchang, Li Rong, and Yang Shihong, he is still quite benevolent. As long as the captive indigenous women were white-skinned, young and beautiful, and quite Chinese, the soldiers could be accepted into their homes as slaves and maids, and the children born were also counted according to the Chinese.
Of course, most of the natives of Nanyang are black, thin and short, with ugly faces, and there are not many women with delicate faces and white skin, only born from powerful families.
Naturally, wolves have more meat and less meat!
In order to meet the physiological needs of most soldiers in the war, Li Yexu was very humane, and all the indigenous women who met the requirements were captured, and after the officers above the rank of lieutenant colonel in the army were selected, the rest were used as military (harmonious) prostitutes.
