Chapter 22: Amitabha Buddhism

After extinguishing this stream of rogues, Ji Qian looked up at the sun and found that it was almost half the afternoon.

The five hundred cavalry, with the harvest of exterminating this gang of rogues, more than 200 good horses, and thousands of homeless people who volunteered to follow, prepared to go to meet Xu Qingyue's 2,000 infantry first, and then respond to Tianfu City.

On the way back to the city, they received a message from Xu Qing's own soldiers.

This soldier is Xu Qing's distant brother, named Xu She, who is very brave in battle. At this time, Xu She looked frightened, as if she had seen something terrible. He stammered and told Ji Qian that Mulan Village was in trouble!

Xu Qingyue turned over and first led 2,000 infantry to relieve the siege. After Ji Qian exterminated the Liukou, he also had to lead five hundred cavalry to go quickly.

The enemy was so strong that the 2,000 infantry might not be able to resist it.

Ji Qian looked at Xu She in disbelief and asked, "How many rogues are there besieging Mulan Village?" With our 2,000 infantry, it will not be a problem to deal with tens of thousands of rogue soldiers. Why didn't Yue turn Xu Qing and still have the confidence to relieve Mulan Village? You kid usually speaks very neatly, why did you stutter today? ”

The soldier said with a look of fear, "General Ji, you don't know how terrifying the group of homeless people besieging Mulan Village are, they all wrapped their heads in red cloth and shouted Amitabha Buddha to rush up. When General Xu of my family saw that scene, he said that those were not homeless people, but all Amitabha Buddhism. Hurry up and let me come back to inform the general, and I have to go back to the city to tell Yue Tuan Xiaolian Envoy. ”

When Ji Qian heard that the people besieging Mulan Village turned out to be Amitabha Buddhism, her face suddenly changed.

Amitabha Buddhism, listening to the name is a little-known folk religion, but when it comes to another name of Amitabha Buddhism, Manichaeism, it is estimated that everyone in the Great Song Dynasty knows it, and everyone knows it.

A few years ago, Fang La, the leader of Manichaeism, gathered people to rebel and went down to more than ten prefectures and counties in the south of the Yangtze River. Fang La called himself the Holy Father, created the regime, and built Yongle. The imperial court sent the elite western army south to suppress it, and only then did it stop Fang La's offensive. It wasn't until Han Shizhong, a general of the Western Army, led more than 100 people to sneak through the mountains, raided the Amitabha Buddhist resort Bangyuandong, and captured Fang La, that the rebellion ended.

The Fangla Rebellion, which lasted for four years, destroyed the entire splendid Jiangnan. Wherever the Fang family's army, which claims to raise troops to save the people of the world, goes, all they do is to burn the state and county, coerce the people, and the great cause of women.

The rebellion of the Holy Father is not for the sake of the people of the world. He wants to build an unshakable Fang dynasty.

In the organizational structure of Amitabha Buddhism, the low-level believers are wrapped in red scarves on their heads, and they are not even allowed to have weapons, and they are equipped with them, and when they fight, they either carry wooden sticks that they have copied by hand, or they use their own teeth and fists to dedicate themselves to the leader of the Fangla sect. From the red scarf, there are six levels. The people of the Fang family were at the highest level, comparable to the bloodline of Baitou Mountain, which was famous in the universe in later generations. Emperor Fang La, Prince Fang Jie, Minister of State Fang Fei, General Fang Qi'er, almost all important positions are held by the surname Fang.

In order to let the believers who were fooled by them never have the ability to distinguish and follow the descendants of the Fang family forever, they would definitely not forget the most important thing, that is, to burn the books and kill all the readers.

In fact, Fang La's strategy for making the country is very simple, two words can be summarized, one word is kill. Kill the scholars, kill the people who refuse to join Amitabha Buddhism, kill all the rich people, and confiscate their property. Of course, this communion does not include the bottom believers.

There is one more word, which is burning. Attack a house, burn a house, attack a street, burn a street, attack a town, burn a town, attack a county, burn a county, attack a state, burn a state. Everywhere Amitabha Buddhism went, it was in ruins. The surviving people had nothing, so they could only join Amitabha Buddhism and selflessly dedicate their lives to the Fang family.

The defeat of Anglican Fangla was mainly due to the ineffective strategy of struggle. Of course, it is also because of the corruption too early. As soon as he won half of the south of the Yangtze River, Fang La couldn't wait to be the emperor, build a harem, play with women, indulge in sensuality, and be undefeated!

If the entire country is brought down first, and then this thing is done when the country is firmly seated, even if the brainwashed believers in the world are starved to death, won't they still shout long live?

After Fang La's defeat, under the severe crackdown of the imperial court, the spread of Amitabha Buddhism became more secretive. So much so that many people think that they are no longer in the climate. In fact, their power is far greater than people think. The most mysterious religion in Chinese history arrived in the Southern Song Dynasty, and because Manichaeism and Amitabha Buddhism had become notorious, they chose a new name: Mingjiao.

Of course, Ji Qian's face changed as soon as she heard Amitabha Buddhism, because Ji Qian had already seen their power.

When Ji Qian was still the king of the mountain in Taihang Mountain two years ago, there was a forty or fifty-year-old Toutuo who came to Ji Qian's cottage and persuaded Ji Qian to join Amitabha Buddhism and help the people in the world. Ji Qian has always disliked these Toutuo Taoist priests, thinking that they will only pretend to be ghosts. The two of them didn't speculate, so they started to move. Ji Qian laughed at the pretending to be a ghost.

As a result, Ji Qian was not the opponent of more than half a hundred heads that year. If it weren't for Ma Xiaoliu's cleverness, as soon as he saw Ji Qian falling, he and more than a dozen of his subordinates aimed bows and arrows at Toutuo, so that Toutuo did not dare to kill him, and it is estimated that Ji Qian was abolished by that Toutuo at that time.

Since joining the army with Yue Fei, Ji Qian has also learned boxing and foot kung fu with Yue Fei, but he was surprised to find that even those who are as fierce as Yue Fei, in terms of fist and foot kung fu alone, are only a little better than that Toutuo.

Ji Qian has always thought that the main power of Amitabha Buddhism is limited to the south of the Yangtze River and the Central Plains, that is, a few people like Toutuo are pretending to be gods and ghosts. Now it seems that the people of Amitabha Buddhism have long infiltrated the Central Plains.

Since it is the believers of Amitabha Buddhism who are besieging Mulan Village, it cannot be taken lightly. Ji Qian asked Xu She, and learned that there were tens of thousands of Amitabha Buddhist believers besieging Mulan Village, and she immediately gasped.

These low-level believers are the most fearless to death, and if there is a huge disparity in numbers, even the most elite troops will be killed by them using crowd tactics. It seems that not only Yue and Xu Qing's 2,000 infantry can't take advantage, but I'm afraid that my own 500 cavalry will not be able to please him.

Thinking of this, Ji Qian habitually scratched her head, and then called her own soldier Ma Xiaoliu, asking him and Xu She to hurry to Yingtianfu together, tell Yue Fei about Amitabha Buddhism, and let Yue Fei make a decision.

"Ma Xiaoliu, the two of you have to see Brother Yue before it gets dark. I'll go to Mulan Village now and see how Xu Qingyue turned over those two boys. ”

The location of Ji Qian's cavalry is exactly in the middle of Yingtianfu and Mulan Village. It is as far away from Yingtianfu as Mulanzhai. When Ma Xiaoliu and Xu Qing's personal soldiers rode into Yingtianfu City, it was estimated that Ji Qian's horse army had also arrived at Mulan Village.

When Ma Xiaoliu saw Yue Fei in the Chinese military tent, it was already dinner time. It's getting dark.

Yue Fei was discussing something with Zhang Xian, Wang Gui Yue Heng, and Huang Zong, the acting prefect who came to Yue Fei. Seeing Ma Xiaoliu and Xu Qing's soldiers breaking in with panicked faces, they hurriedly asked the two of them what was going on.

Hearing that tens of thousands of Amitabha Buddhist believers were besieging Mulan Village, the faces of several people in the room changed.

If it was just the news that Mulan Village was besieged, Yue Fei and the others would not have changed their faces drastically. But what they were discussing just now was also about Amitabha Buddhism.

As a newly appointed prefect, Huang Zong knew that the stability of Yingtianfu did not depend on the people of Yingtian, but on the tens of thousands of displaced people who stayed here. Therefore, Huang Zong wears civilian clothes almost every day to visit more than a dozen places where the displaced people have settled.

Today he found two places where the homeless people were strange, and almost all the able-bodied homeless people were wrapped in red turbans. Huang Zong observed silently for a while, and found that several homeless leaders had a white lotus embroidered on their shoes.

After leaving those two places, Huang Zong immediately called more than a dozen officials to wander around the dozen or so streets in Yingtianfu, and found many strong men with red scarves on their heads in the crowd.

Huang Zong picked a few capable officials to follow a few men he designated, to see where they stayed at night, and then hurried to see Yue Fei himself.

According to Huang Zong's calculations, those two homeless places should be the dens of Amitabha Buddhism, and the people embroidered with white lotus flowers on their shoes are definitely the leaders of Amitabha Buddhism, and those men with red scarves on their heads should be veteran believers. The reason why they scattered a part of them wandering around the streets of Ying Tianfu was probably to observe the garrison of Ying Tianfu and look for an opportunity to attack.

Yue Fei agreed with Huang Zong's inference. Before Ma Xiaoliu broke in, Yue Fei had just decided to send Ji Qian and their more than 2,000 old soldiers to these two dens of Amitabha Buddhism tonight.

Taking advantage of the fact that these disciples have not yet started an incident, they will be taken down in one fell swoop, so as not to let Ying Tianfu, which has just restored order and has just been decided, be messed up by them again. Yue Fei didn't have a good impression of Amitabha Buddhism. Whether it is the master Zhou Tong or the senior brother Zhou Yi, they all regard Amitabha Buddha as a cancer born in the Great Song Dynasty.

When Zhou Yi was in Fangla, he once infiltrated Jiangnan with a group of friends and witnessed the cleverness of Fangla's army to kill people and set fires. That's why I hate Amitabha Buddhism. Even more than the Zhao and Song courts, which he hated.

Senior brother Zhou Yi is not as good as Yue Fei in terms of kung fu on horses, but when it comes to kung fu with fists and feet, he is definitely Yue Fei and his fellow brothers. has been walking the rivers and lakes for more than ten years, and has won the prestige of an iron fist hero.

When King Kang recruited troops in Xiangzhou, he specially sent people to Zhou's house to recruit Zhou Yi. Zhou Yi was disdainful of King Kang's solicitation, went out with his sword, and left Xiangzhou. No one knows where Zhou Yi is. However, at this moment, Yue Fei misses Zhou Yi very much, because when he talks to Zhou Yi on weekdays, he can see that Zhou Yi is very familiar with Amitabha Buddhism.

If Zhou Yi was here, it would be much easier to deal with Amitabha Buddhism.

However, Yue Fei has never been the kind of person who puts his hopes on others. Since Zhou Yi is not here, let yourself deal with Amitabha Buddhism. As soon as he heard Xu She say that at least tens of thousands of Amitabha Buddhist believers were besieging Mulan Village, which was dozens of miles away, Yue Fei's eyes lit up and he said loudly, "I understand." ”

Prefect Huang Zong slapped his face and said loudly, "I also understand." ”
