August 18 in the third autumn of the Great Song Dynasty, Quanzhou.

The area around Tumen Street has been hastily cleaned up, and the dense corpses around the Tumen City Tower have been removed as much as possible. The corpses on the street were collected as much as they could be collected, covered with a white cloth, and sprinkled with quicklime for disinfection. It's just that the city gate tower that was beaten and filled with arrows, and there are traces of smoke and fire, but it can't be covered up for a while.

The militia soldiers composed of Quanzhou Heavenly Daoists swaggered and shuttled inside and outside Tumen, everyone was extremely tired and excited. One of the richest cities in the world, after three days and three nights of scuffle, actually captured them! The twists and turns in the middle are thrilling, and now that I think about it, it seems like a dream.

The essence of the Quanzhou Rebellion was actually a religious war! First, the Heavenly Taoist Sect took action, the Confucian Christians went out of the city to fight, then the Heavenly Sect raised troops in the city, and finally the Heavenly Taoist Sect and Confucianism joined forces to counterattack, slaughtering the forces of the Heavenly Sect in Quanzhou City in one fell swoop. The Tianfang cultists who withdrew from Quanzhou were chased and killed by Zhao and Yu and Chen Zilong's group training, leaving behind all the corpses, and finally got on a boat in Putian and fled into the open sea. Quan Yong, who did not capture Pu Shougeng and Ma Shoushan, did not return to Quanzhou, but stationed in Putian, the Xinghua military administration office, which was still under the control of the Great Song Dynasty and was governed by the Great Song officials, who naturally welcomed the entry of Zhao and Yu, the regimental training controlled by the clan.

As for the counties under Quanzhou Prefecture, the three coastal counties of Jinjiang, Hui'an, and Tong'an, because of the dense commercial ports, the maritime merchants and the Heavenly Daoists were very powerful. A few days after Jinjiang (the capital of Quanzhou) was controlled by the Heavenly Taoist Sect, they all fell into the hands of the Heavenly Taoist Sect. It is located in the inland seven counties of Nan'an, Anxi, Yongchun and Dehua. It was still under the rule of Southern Song officials. So when Chen Dexing arrived in Jinjiang County, Quanzhou Mansion was in a state of one government and two countries.

After the rain, the fireworks in Quanzhou City were also largely extinguished. It's wearing ordinary people's clothes. When the soldiers of the Heavenly Dao Disciple Militia who only wrapped a yellow cloth on their heads came and went, Mo Yingniang, Fang Yumen, Ji Zhiji and others all gathered at the Taiyi Temple outside Quanzhou City. Chen Feiyang and Hai Dawei each brought a company of archers and cavalry guards, scattered around, and were on strict alert. Everywhere on the commanding heights, there were flashes of dazzling light reflected by steel armor everywhere. A huge banner of the Sun and Moon King. is hunting and fluttering in the sky above Taiyi Temple!

Mo Yingniang and the others are waiting for Chen Dexing's arrival, the people who are fighting here. I didn't expect it. Chen Dexing actually came to Quanzhou by speedboat! It was only then that they stabilized the situation. Chen Dexing's ship Daming appeared outside the port of Thornton, and everyone was excited at the moment, but this time he showed his face in front of His Royal Highness King Ming! In any case, there should be a big reward, right?

Ink Shadow Lady stood there. His face was full of joy. Just waiting for Chen Dexing to arrive, she is the number one hero, and Quanzhou City was fought down by her with the Heavenly Daoists! The wealthy merchants who did not enter the Heavenly Taoism and the Heavenly Fang Sect in Quanzhou City also knew that the Ming King had arrived, and these embarrassed and frightened rich merchants also guarded the Taiyi Temple Gate early.

It's just that compared to the people of the Heavenly Dao Sect, their faces are much more ugly. It's not that I miss the Great Song Dynasty and oppose the Ming Dynasty, but I am worried about my own "money". In the words of later generations, Quanzhou in the Southern Song Dynasty was an international metropolis. The sea is inclusive, and there is tolerance. Merchants from all over the world gather in Quanzhou. In addition to bringing their culture, religion, and way of life, they also brought the world's market. In Fujian, a barren land with eight mountains, one water and one field, many industries such as tea, porcelain, silk, lacquerware, ships, and ironware can be developed and sold all over the world.

And the people of Quanzhou, especially the people of Tianfangjiao, are the link between Quanzhou and the world! These people are now either dying in the turmoil or on the run. The link between the entire Quanzhou and even the entire Southern Song Dynasty and the world has been cut off! Without the Fanren market, can the prosperity of Quanzhou, Fujian, and even the prosperity of the entire Jiangnan be maintained?

The sound of horses' hooves sounded, and a group of people and horses galloped from far and near. The first to lead the way was Gu Dali, the admiral of the Nanyang Fleet and one of the twenty-two brothers. His fleet often entered the port of Thornton, and he also visited Quanzhou City several times. According to the plan of the Military Affairs Department, the home port of the Nanyang Fleet will soon be relocated to Jiahe Island in Tong'an County, Quanzhou Prefecture, which will be Xiamen Island in the future. So he is now also half a landlord, so he leads the way.

Behind Gu Dali was the Marine Corps of the Nanyang Fleet -- the Beiyang Fleet did not have a Marine Corps, but the Nanyang Fleet must have it. These marines, under the leadership of the commander Zhang Xianshi, lined up in columns, dressed in leather armor, carrying guns and crossbows, and holding swords and shields (of course, the marines did not have cavalry and were not equipped with anti-cavalry spears), and marched majestically and vigorously.

Chen Dexing himself rode a high-headed horse, with Zhao Lin'er, Yang Po'er, Xiao Ai, Juexin nuns and others, as well as some staff and secretaries who accompanied the south, and came under the escort of the guards cavalry who dismounted and walked on foot of a battalion. As he walked forward, he was also triumphantly talking to a Japanese nun who was riding a donkey beside him.

"How?" Chen Dexing raised his horsewhip and pointed to the Quanzhou Mansion where the flag of the Sun and Moon King fluttered in the distance. "The city of millions of people has been taken by tens of thousands of Heavenly Daoists! Juexin, are you willing to worship the lonely king as a teacher? ”

Jue Xinni was stunned for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Today's Quanzhou Mansion, tomorrow's Heianjing (referring to Kyoto, Japan)?" ”

Chen Dexing looked back at the nun, nodded with a smile, and said, "Juexin, what you said is good!" The Heavenly Dao Sect should become the first major religion in the world, and Japan's Encore stands outside the Heavenly Dao? If you worship under the Lone King, you can be in charge of the Japanese Heavenly Taoist Sect. ”

Now it is Ren Daoxing who is in charge of the affairs of Tiandao Sect Japan, but Ren Daoxing's missionary ability is really not good. This Taoist Shenxiao Sect is actually a chemist, and he will configure all kinds of H drugs to pretend to be ghosts, and it is really not good to preach and preach. In contrast, the ability of the Kyaw Shin nun and her son, the monk Kyaw Hui, to preach is much stronger, just look at the prosperity of Honganji Temple in later generations.

"Juexin can't ask for it, Juexin is willing to worship the king as a teacher and enter the Taoist religion."

The nun did not refuse, but bowed down on the donkey's back and agreed. The Venerable Master passed away two months ago, and the establishment of Honganji Temple is still far away. The method passed on by Qinluan is very weak. For Juexin, a wine and meat nun who married two men and gave birth to a litter of children, it is not a good choice to switch to the emerging and powerful Heavenly Taoism and create a new situation!

If, as expected, Tendo became the state religion of Japan, and enlightenment would be able to grasp the religion of a country, what kind of honor would it be?

Chen Dexing smiled, there is a nun of Juexin, oh, it should be the help of Juexin Daogu, the situation of the Heavenly Daoist Sect in Japan should be opened up soon.

Japan is a country that is different from future generations, and it is not a sworn enemy of China, but a big fan of Chinese civilization. For hundreds of years, we have been learning about Chinese civilization. Nowadays, China is flourishing because of Heavenly Taoism, and there should be many Japanese devils from "Kazakhstan and China" who have also converted to Heavenly Taoism, right?

Buddhism and Shinto in Japan are deeply rooted, and the ......prophecy of "Quanzhou Mansion today, Heianjing tomorrow" will surely come true in many years, as they are not willing to give up their religious rights.

Chen Dexing rode on the horse, and his mind turned back to Quanzhou. The city's white fan has now been swept away - this is not a bad thing in the long run.

Because the shipping industry in the thirteenth century was different from later generations, it was a special industry with a strong armed force - that is, the shipping industry of later generations, also known as the second navy!

It's all well and good to be tolerant of all rivers, but to let the armed forces of foreigners grow and grow along the coast of China is like raising tigers. In history, Quanzhou, because of the force of the Heavenly Sect, paid a price several times heavier than now, and almost made people a member of the Heavenly Sect world! Later, he still sacrificed the grand move of genocide and killed everything......

Don't want such prosperity!

Of course, like the Zhu Ming Dynasty, simply closing the country and not interacting with the outside world is also an ostrich policy that is not enough. Chen Ming can't learn from Zhu Ming, not only can he not retreat, but he also has to go out to develop maritime trade!

"King, Taiyi has arrived." Gu Dali's voice interrupted Chen Dexing's thoughts. He looked up and saw that he had already arrived at the place. Mo Ying Niang is leading a group of guys dressed as businessmen to greet him at the door of the Taoist temple.

"Chen Mo Yingniang welcomes the king, the minister is fortunate not to be dishonored, and has taken down Quanzhou Mansion for the king!"

Ink Shadow Niang was the first to step forward and salute. Chen Dexing smiled, picked his legs and dismounted, although he was wearing armor, he still landed steadily, and stood in front of Mo Yingniang with a smile.

He patted Mo Yingniang's fragrant shoulder, and said with a look of affection: "Good job!" took Quanzhou completely, and also cleared the accumulated diseases of Quanzhou Mansion...... Outstanding meritorious service, the lonely king will definitely reward you! ”

Mo Yingniang's body shook, and the joy on her face couldn't be hidden, the iceberg beauty seemed to be moved by the heart of spring. But his mouth is still covering up, "Minister...... This battle is not all taken, dozens of merchants in Quanzhou are almost completely wiped out! Nowadays, most of the trade routes between Quanzhou and the West have been interrupted......"

Chen Dexing shrugged, glanced at the businessman with a faint sadness on his face, and laughed: "That's also a good thing!" If the Westerners don't come, won't we go by ourselves? Quanzhou is not without Han maritime merchants, and Guwang is not without a navy...... It is Bai Fan, who knows the Western route and can speak the language of Western countries, and there are a few around the lonely king. It's better to stay until the northwest wind rises, and the lone king will lead the land and water soldiers and horses, and go south to Malacca with you and others! (To be continued......)
