As the saying goes, "If you go outside, you must first settle inside".

However, when it comes to faith, it is a troublesome matter.

After all, people need faith. People of faith are happy, and for some people of faith, faith is more precious than life.

There are only three ways to deal with the issue of faith in later generations:

First, the full respect for their beliefs and the slightest fear of offending them have resulted in some faiths becoming more and more exclusive, more radical and, finally, terrorism prevailing. If the belief of other sects such as the Yellow Sect is not tolerated in the slightest, it will inevitably embark on this extreme path in the future.

Second, they completely ignore their beliefs and use coercive means to ban them, and disobedience is physically annihilated. For example, Altan Khan forcibly promoted the Yellow Religion and banned shamanism, and for example, Princess Wencheng's Jokhang Temple was once converted into a pig killing farm. However, Sun from the civilized world can't stop this kind of black hand: to do so, you must cut the grass and eradicate it to avoid future troubles.

Third, there is complete respect on the surface, but there are restrictions everywhere in the dark. Many countries in later generations did this, but Sun Yi did not have the time and patience, and he was not ashamed to play with both sides.

Logically, if none of the above three paths work, then there is only one last path left: to set the rules for these beliefs and let them grow in the sun.

However, with the current strength of Mei Dai Zhao, Sun Yi estimates that the lamas will never easily accept foreign rules.

Therefore, Sun Yi decided to give the lamas called by Mei Dai a little color.

Sun Yi then instructed Little Norbu: "After dinner tomorrow, pull out all your right-wing men and horses in Dabansheng, and we will go and give Mei Dai an explanation!" ”

Little Norbu was overjoyed when he heard this, and he had long been tired of the lamas, so he loudly promised to go out and answer the monks called by Mei Dai.

Mo Rigen was quite worried, "Tabu Bag, if we are so hard-topped, I wonder if Mei Dai Zhao will really declare us heretics. ”

Sun Yi asked rhetorically: "Uncle Mo Rigen, do you still remember our Tianxian?" First, everyone has the right to live; Second, everyone has the right to run away. If someone violates the human rights of their companions, everyone must defend the rights of their companions? ”

Morrigan nodded.

Sun Yi announced: "Mei Dai Zhao is doing this now, in fact, he is violating the right of escape granted to each of us in the Heavenly Constitution!" ”

Sun Yi explained that Manchukuo forcibly arrested people as slaves on the grassland, and Meidaizhao forcibly arrested people as believers on the grassland, one in the flesh and the other in the mind, both deprived people of the right to escape, and there was no essential difference.

As for religion, whether it is the Yellow Religion, the Red Religion, the White Religion, the Flower Religion, the Black Religion, the Green Religion, the Shamanism, or the Taoism of the Central Plains, or the Catholicism of Europe, these things are mysterious and mysterious, and Sun Yi is not qualified to judge the right and wrong of their teachings.

However, Sun Yi insisted that if any religion wanted to preach in the territory of the coalition forces, it must abide by the constitution of the Federation; In other words, no religion has the right to pronounce the death penalty on its people, and no religion can prevent it from leaving it.

By logical extension, no religion can force people to convert, and no religion can prohibit people from believing in other religions.

If a religion dares to violate the constitution of heaven and declare the coalition forces heretical, the coalition forces will not hesitate to declare this religion a cult first!

This is the bottom line that the Federation will never be allowed to infringe upon!

Mo Rigen thought for a moment, nodded cautiously after a while, and said, "It is indeed inappropriate for Mei Daizhao to openly violate the Heavenly Constitution, and it is better to have a long pain than a short pain. ”

"However," Mo Rigen said hesitantly, "it would be better if the lamas of Meidaizhao agreed to our terms, and if the lamas of Meidaizhao refused to accept the constitution of heaven, we would have to solve it by force." Meidaizhao has monks and soldiers, the city wall is strong, and attacking Meidaizhao will inevitably cause heavy casualties. ”

Sun Yi smiled, "Uncle, the third camp will arrive tomorrow." Mei Dai Zhao's so-called fortified city is a puff of smoke in front of the 10,000 opponents of the three battalions. ”

Kikige sandwiched a large piece of lamb between Morrigan and added fuel to the power of the coalition explosives.

Mo Rigen was still not at ease, and advised: "Mei Daizhao's power is very large, and if the lamas incite the people, it will be very unfavorable to us in the future." ”

Sun Yi replied: "We are against the lamas of Meidaizhao, not Buddhism. Explain to the people clearly that it is because the lamas of Meidai Zhao cannot tolerate other sects, so we have taken action against Meidai. In the future, the people should believe in Buddhism and then believe in Buddhism, worship Maitreya and then worship Maitreya, worship Wengon openly if they want to worship Wenggon, and worship their ancestors openly and openly if they want to worship their ancestors, and everyone will not interfere with each other. If the Yellow Sect lamas summoned by Mei Dai are unwilling to abide by the Heavenly Constitution, the people can go to the Red Sect lamas or the monks of the Central Plains, and the coalition forces will never stop them. ”

Mo Rigen was completely relieved when he heard this, "That's good! That's good! Ordinary believers don't care about the Yellow Religion and the Red Religion, as long as there is Maitreya Buddha worship, they will not oppose us. ”

The Yellow Sect and the Red Sect seem to be just going through different methods and pursuing Buddhahood. Think about it, why did the Yellow Sect and the Red Sect fight to the death?

On the steppe, Altan Khan supported the Yellow Sect, and Lin Dan Khan supported the Red Sect, and the two religions were in the same situation, and the Red Sect launched a comprehensive counterattack against the Yellow Sect; On the Zangba Plateau, Zangba Khan supported the Red Religion, occupied most of the Zangba Plateau, and resolutely resisted the reincarnation of the fifth Grand Lama of the Yellow Sect.

Everyone has the same goal, they are all seeking Buddha, is it necessary to make a dead hand?

In fact, it is not a power struggle between the vested interests of the Yellow Sect and the Red Sect?

A big reason why Altan Khan converted to the Yellow Sect was that the Grand Lama of the Yellow Sect believed that Altan Khan was the reincarnation of Genghis Khan, and Altan Khan needed this statement to deify himself. In return, Altan Khan provided the soil for the exclusive transmission of the Yellow Sect, which was weak at the time.

Altan Khan honored the great lama of the Yellow Sect at that time as the reincarnation of Guanyin Bodhisattva, and the name "Dalai", which means "sea", which is the same meaning as Genghis Khan's "Genghis", and the coastal city "Dalian" in later generations is derived from this word. In return, the Great Sea Lama said that he would posthumously recognize himself as the third Great Sea Lama, and after his death, the fourth Great Sea Lama would be reincarnated in the family of Altan Khan.

No matter how you hear it, it all feels like a rights deal.

No wonder Lin Dan of Chahar resolutely switched to the Red Sect, because in the scope of the Yellow Sect, Lin Dan must admit that Altan Khan is Genghis Khan! The Ming Jin Kingdom became the Mengyuan Zhengsu, and Lin Dan, the titular Mongolian Great Khan, became a side branch!

The lama of Meidaizhao secretly supported Mo Rigen at the beginning, and to put it bluntly, it was nothing more than hoping to use the power of Sun Yi Tabu to propagate the Dharma again; When they found out that Sun Yi Ta Bu Nang was worshipping the white old man of the Shennong clan, their hopes of propagating the Dharma were disappointed, and they immediately turned against Mo Rigen's cavalry team.

A Mongolian buddy of Sun Yi in later generations said well, what ethnic contradictions and religious contradictions, those are all tools used by big people to fight each other to incite the common people, as long as we ordinary people can live a good life.

To borrow this sentence, ordinary believers can worship Maitreya Buddha as long as they can, where do they care whether the temple is presided over by the Yellow Sect, the Red Sect, or the Central Plains Buddhism?

Therefore, Sun Yi had the confidence that while giving a lesson to the lamas of Meidaizhao, he would not offend the followers of Maitreya Buddha in the Dabansheng region.
