"The Tang Dynasty in Chang'an was prepared for its attack on Tibet. In the tenth year of Taizong Zhenguan, the Hexi Jiedu envoy was specially appointed to prevent Tubo and its possible connection with the Hui, and the two sections of Longyou and Jiannan were specially designed to prevent the attack of Tubo. At the same time, in the early years of Zhenguan, when potatoes were rampant, Taizong hoarded 2,000 tons of potatoes and transported them to the front line.

However, what is ironic is that in the war of the Tang Dynasty to destroy Tibet, the unit with the greatest credit was not the main force led by Li Ji, nor the flank army led by Cheng Yanjin and Wei Chigong, but the 7,000 chengguan garrison led by a warrior named Biao Daguang....... ”……

Xu Yang has never been worried that Datang's foreign war will be lost, and sure enough, this time Biao Daguang did not disappoint him, the urban management special forces that have been trained in Qinling for so many years have shown their strength to the fullest in the process of fighting against Tubo this time, the era of cold weapons will eventually pass, and the era of hot weapons has arrived.

When the muskets of the Tang people shot down the confident feather spirits of the Tubo soldiers, and when the footsteps of the city management garrison stepped into the Potala Palace, Tubo once again became one of the souls of the dead at the feet of the Tang Dynasty.

Compared with the Turkic Khan, the Goryeo Yuangai Suwen, and the Tibetan Songtsen Gampo were still a backbone man, and when the members of the Chengguan garrison arrived at the palace at the top of the Potala Palace, they had already found Songtsen Gampo dead on the throne.

A short sword pierced his chest. It can be seen that he was in great pain before he died. His face was distorted. His expression was desolate, but Xu Yang also thought that the courage to face death calmly was very worthy of admiration.

It is worth mentioning that Lu Dongzan did not follow in the footsteps of Songtsan Gampo and died with him, he fled, leaving no clues, under the vigorous search of the Tang army. Only a small clue was collected, and that was that Lu Dongzan seemed to have fled to the west.

Li Er didn't care about Lu Dongzan's escape, and Xu Yang didn't care either, he was just slightly surprised, he originally thought that this minister, who was most loyal to Songtsan Gampo, would eventually choose to escape......

When Songtsen Gampo died, the Tibetan Dynasty fell apart, and the Tang army captured the Tibetan capital city of Lhasa without much effort.

This time to attack Tibet, Xu Yang's attitude was very tough and proposed to Li Er. The army was not allowed to do any harm to the Tibetan people, and the Tibetan soldiers who laid down their arms did not need to be buried alive. Tubo is far away, it is necessary to let the people there have a good impression of the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, at least there can be no hostility, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, in the area where the ruler is weak, if the anger of the people is provoked, it is a very terrible thing, the current Li Er is not like the Li Er in history, will say "Jun, Zhou, Min, Shui. Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize a boat", to maintain the good impression of the poor class of Tubo towards the Tang Dynasty, take the mass line, Xu Yang firmly believes that as long as after ten years of assimilation, the Tubo people there will naturally become Tang people.

But Xu Yang was still wrong, Prince Li Ke was originally arranged to enter Tibet to develop religion, at first Xu Yang would pay some attention to him, but later, with the all-out war, Xu Yang has gradually ignored the role of the entire prince, and it was not until later that Xu Yang discovered the horror of religion......

Religion is a magical thing, and it has another name, and that is faith, which is the Pandora of spiritual sustenance. Once you open it, you can't close it, and the spirit and the will are communed, the human body can be shattered, but the will is difficult. Therefore, its power is so great that sometimes it can even exceed people's imagination.

Xu Yang once couldn't understand why those fanatical religious elements in Iran would distort human nature and become extremely bloodthirsty and murderous, while in religious worship, they could turn husband and wife against each other, relatives and friends as enemies, abandon a qiē, and turn to religion.

Xu Yang once believed that religion and belief itself do not have the ability to distort people's psychology, and what can distort people's hearts is the deception and deception of certain interests. And faith is something that everyone has, some people believe in religion, some people only believe in their own conscience, these are all beliefs, the so-called psychologically distorted believers are just being deceived by people using plausible religion or belief, so it causes people to have the illusion, as if it is faith that makes people psychologically distorted.

However, after what he saw and heard in the Tang Dynasty, Xu Yang is very convinced that some religions still originate from people's ignorance and people's desire for ignorance.

Xu Yang wrote a set of fantasy novels for Taoism, in which the class of Taoism is very clear, building the foundation, opening the light, fusion, heartbeat, Jindan, Yuanying, out-of-body, distraction, integration, cave void, Mahayana, crossing, these words that are familiar to later generations, when they first appeared in the eyes of the Tang people, it can be said that it caused an uproar, Xu Yang's booklet called "Cultivating the Tao into an Immortal" was regarded as one of the classics by the Taoists for a time, and hundreds of people in Chang'an rushed to circulate it. The elders-level figures of the various avenue temples began to popularize the knowledge of Taoist ranks, and they all measured the levels for the children who sat down.

Since then, Taoism has an unwritten rule that those who have reached the age of 30 and have not built a foundation are people who have no wisdom roots, and they are not allowed to be children of Taoism.

What is building a foundation, no one knows, and Xu Yang's booklet only wrote a very mysterious sentence: "100 days to build a foundation, October pregnancy, three years of breastfeeding, nine years of facing the wall, before it can be dispersed into qi and gathered into shape"

It's just this paragraph, which was summed up by the major avenues and their own explanations, and each has its own reason, Taoist Yuan Tiangang held a grand Taoist ceremony in Chang'an after Xuanzang held the Dharma Conference of the Great Ci'en Temple for five days, and he held a grand Taoist ceremony in Chang'an this time, he held a different ceremony this time, in the past, he was like a dancing god, making white phosphorus spontaneously combust a few times, saying some words to calculate the destiny of heaven, even if it was over, but this time, in the face of many people in Chang'an, Yuan Tiangang did not perform "Dancing God", did not tell the profound Taoist classics, but told the story to the people of Chang'an.

"Hongmeng preached, the avenue is three thousand, and the proof is two thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine, leaving only a glimmer of heaven."

"Gonggong angrily collided with the mountains, the heavens and the earth collapsed, and all things died"

"Hongmeng preached, Nuwa heard it, got a glimpse of the heavens, and finally preached the Tao and heart, and had the merit of creating people"

"Taihao Fuxi, the son born by Hua Xu stepping on the footprints of the thunder god in Lei Ze, he was able to "go up and down in the sky" along the Jianmu that grew in the field of the capital as a ladder of heaven, and then created the Tai Chi Liangyi Taoist ......"

All kinds of these, the people of Chang'an seem to have heard some novel stories, in Yuan Tiangang's preaching conference, everyone has gained a lot, "Datang News" even launched a column to report on this matter, for a time the world shook, countless people are determined to preach, go up the mountain to seek the Tao, Taoism, also by virtue of Xu Yang's small means, suddenly reached the peak of history......

After the Taoist fever in Chang'an, Xu Yang no longer believed in any sect, it turned out that just through his own hands, he could also make countless people believe, only when he became a qiē initiator, he knew that it was so simple to use fabricated stories to deceive ignorant people.

Compared with Xu Yang's see-through, Li Ke, who was in Tibet, was tired of religion at this time, in the face of the science and technology of the Tang Dynasty, the ignorance of the Tubo people became his means of conquering a qiē, this time he knew all the movements of the army in Tibet, and all presented the information to the army of the Tang Dynasty, and he also contributed to the destruction of Tubo.

After the death of Songtsen Gampo, he justifiably became the new king of Tibet, and his supporters sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and Li Er did not express any objections to his son Li Ke being the king in Tibet...... (To be continued......)
