Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize a boat.

Yuan Shang and Zhong Xuan both understand this truth, but in terms of how to reasonably treat believers with faith, Yuan Shang is a little stronger than Zhong Xuan, because he knows better what can make the so-called believers rational and what can make them crazy and desperate.

As long as this point is used well, Yuan Shang can not only subdue them for his own use, but also make them hate their enemies to death.

It was under such circumstances that Yuan Shang set the strategy of 'Yan Xing against the Five Doumi Sect', in order to arouse the hatred of the ghost pawns in Hanzhong against Yan Xing, guide their strongest war and anger, and then lead this angry army, with the army of protecting faith as the pioneer, to send troops to Chang'an to defeat Yan Xing.

After listening to Yuan Shang's opinion, Zhong Miao thought about it carefully, and felt that his design was very interesting and reasonable, and he couldn't help but say it deeply.

However, in Zhong Xuan's heart, if he wants to do this, there seems to be a very serious problem.

"I said......" Zhong Xuan said to Yuan Shang the question in his heart, "I said that you want Yan Xing to oppose the Five Doumi Sect, so that the ghost pawns in Hanzhong will be ruthless to him...... It's a good idea, but the old man has a question...... Why should he Yan Xing listen to you, if you let him oppose Wudoumi and teach him, he will rebel? What's in it for him to do this? ”

Yuan Shang was stunned when he heard this, blinked, and looked at Zhong Xuan in puzzlement, as if he was looking at a ...... Pig.

"Of course Yan Xing won't go against the Five Doumi Sect, do you think he's a fool? At such a critical moment, he Yan Xing is not afraid that Daozu will smash him to death with a gossip furnace? ”

Zhong Xuan was even more puzzled when he heard this: "In this case, why are you still so confident?" ”

Yuan Shang looked Zhong Xuan up and down a few times, and the color in his eyes was even worse, as if he was a brainless monster.

"Mr. Zhong, have you given birth to a child in Hebei in the past few years not only because of kidney deficiency, but also because of brain deficiency? Who said that Yan Xing had to do this by himself? He doesn't do. Won't Yuan help him do it? Besides, I have the kung fu to go around in such a big circle to lure Yan Xing into the trap? Time is precious, I'm busy. ”

Zhong Xuan's face changed suddenly when he heard this...... It becomes a little dark.

"What do you mean...... Is it to discredit him? ”

Yuan Shang rolled his eyes.

"How fresh, don't discredit him, do I still have to publicize his good deeds and heroic deeds?"

Zhong Xuan's face couldn't help but twitch, he was sometimes helpless about Yuan Shang's behavior and actions, as a leader who respected Confucianism, Zhong Xuan was really unaccustomed to some of Yuan Shang's practices as an important minister of the imperial court, and felt deep sadness in his heart.

Zhong Xuan sighed. looked at Yuan Shang with a straight face, and talked hard about his education.

"Although it is said that soldiers are not tired of cheating, but you are really losing the royal way by doing this."

Yuan Shang shrugged his shoulders indifferently and said with a smile: "Perhaps, you and I don't have the same understanding of the royal road." ”

Zhong Miao raised his eyebrows and asked: "Since you said so, then the old man asked you, in your heart." What is the royal road? ”

Yuan Shang nodded his chin and thought for a moment.

"If the opponent is not good, he will run over him."

Zhong Xuan frowned: "Then what is domineering?" ”

Yuan Shang smiled: "Good one, I also ran it over." ”

Zhong Xuan's beard trembled.

"The old man asked you, what is the way of Confucius and Mencius?"

Yuan Shang's smile deepened.

"Tell him before you grind."

Zhong Xuan: "............"

************************

Early the next morning. In Yuan's camp, I don't know who spread it, and a rumor began to spread gradually in the army.

Yan Xing in Guanzhong, after seizing half of the territory of Liangzhou and Yongzhou. He issued decrees that all the people under his jurisdiction, regardless of the officials and the people, should be issued in the states and counties under his control. Peddlers, pawns, farmers, businessmen, and industrialists are not allowed to believe in religion, and all clans, regardless of size, belong to the evil stream of the Taiping Sect, but anyone who believes in religion will be punished for the crime of treason.

As soon as this rumor spread, it caused an uproar in the camp of the Yuan army, especially among the ghost strokes of the Five Doumi Sect who surrendered in Hanzhong, which caused widespread discussion and indignation.

Yan Xing was shot again without knowing it.

Two days later, a scout who sent Liangzhou to investigate and returned returned to Yuan Ying, not only did he bring back the accuracy of this news with certainty, but he even got the 'Abolition List Text' posted by Yan Xing in various states and counties in Liangzhou!

The content of the list is in the name of 'abolishing the evil and leading to the right', saying that the believers cover a wide area, do not engage in farming, do not weave mulberry, delay production, and sometimes have the suspicion of gathering people to rebel, which is to not observe the people's festival, and should be abolished! There is also Yan Xing's Liangzhou ribbon seal on the list, and it is advertised that the text does belong to Jincheng.

To make matters worse, the spies who returned from Western State brought back a piece of heartbreaking news:

Even after Yan Xing issued this decree, he also ordered all the prefectures and counties under his jurisdiction to destroy all the temples of faith, regardless of the branch, and burn them all, leaving no ...... Even the statues of Taoist ancestors in some Taoist temples were smashed one by one without mercy, and none of them survived.

At this moment, the soldiers and horses of the Hanzhong ghost soldiers who surrendered to the Yuan army's camp began to be completely angry!

It's easy to say anything else, smashing the statue of the Dao Ancestor is absolutely intolerable!

What kind of thing is he? It's just a barbarian in Jincheng, Liangzhou, Northwest China, I'm afraid that I can't recognize all the words in the Tao Te Ching, and I dare to smash the statue of the Taoist ancestor?

Who does he think he is? The Emperor of Heaven, the Lord of the Earth!

So, in Yuan's military camp, a strange scene began.

In line with the task of exterminating Yan Xing, the Guanzhong Army has not yet asked for war, and those ghost soldiers of the Hanzhong Army who have just surrendered began to come forward by ordinary soldiers on behalf of higher military ranks, and jointly signed Ma Chao, Pang De, Zhang Xiu and other main generals in the army, strongly asking General Sima to send troops to Chang'an, kill Yan thieves, set things right, and eliminate this evil for the world, the people, and countless living beings...... Vows to avenge the idol of the Daozu.

After receiving these submitted battle reports, Yuan Shang ignored them at first, just laughed it off, until the Hanzhong army began to frantically pour into his handsome tent like snowflakes one after another, Yuan Shangfang felt that the time was almost up.

Here's what to do. It is to launch a unique oath meeting in the school field of the battalion, which will raise the morale of these Hanzhong troops to the highest level, and the anger will be fanned to the maximum!

In the school field in the barracks, Yuan Shang summoned the civil and military generals, first asked people to read Yan Xing's 'Abolition of the Sect' in public, and then asked the spies to state in front of the three armies all the actions that Yan Xing had done to damage the sect after issuing the list, which aroused the anger of the Han army against Yan Xing, and then spoke in person.

But seeing Yuan Shang walking to the front of the point platform, he looked at the large number of black sergeants below, and took a deep breath. Raise your voice and drink.

"Soldiers! What day is it? ”

There was silence below, and no one answered.

Yuan Shang suddenly pulled out the sword at his waist and roared loudly: "Let me tell you, today is a day of shame, a day of hatred, and a day of unforgiveness!" ”

Speaking of this, Yuan Shang took a deep breath, and his voice raised three degrees: "Because, Yan Xing is in Guanzhong." Decree in vain, abolish all religions, persecute believers all over the world, and tear apart our faith. Trample on our dignity! To destroy my faith is to destroy my family's business...... Yan Xing dog thief, his crime should be punished! ”

"Be punished!"

"Be punished!"

"Be punished!"

Yuan Shang's voice fell, and he heard all the soldiers below respond loudly, especially the ghost pawns of the Wudoumi Sect believers in Hanzhong. One by one, they were blushing and their necks were thick and roaring loudly, and they couldn't wait to immediately kill Guanzhong with weapons in their hands and castrate Yan Xing. Peel the skin, smash the bones to take revenge.

After everyone's roar fell, Yuan Shang's eyebrows were raised, and he said another word to fan the wind.

He also ordered the demolition of temples, the destruction of churches, and the destruction of the foundations of all religions...... Even if it is demolished, he didn't even let go of the statue of Daozu...... It's all smashed, and not a single scum is left! …… I heard that in Liangzhou, I can't even spell out a picture of my Daozu now...... The behavior of beasts is outrageous! ”

"Beast~!"

"Beast~!"

"Kill the beast~!"

"Avenge Dao Ancestor!"

"Revenge!"

"Revenge!"

“…………”

Yuan Shang raised his hand and calmed the indignant soldiers, and then waved his hand behind him, only to see several soldiers walking in front of the general platform with a clay statue in the shape of a general.

Yuan Shang took a deep breath, then pointed to the clay statue, and said loudly: "The clay man still has three points of earthiness, Yan Xing is easy to bully when we are good at bullying, and we are also good at bullying when Dao Ancestor, we must not let him look flattened...... However, before killing the thief in the middle of the Ben Guan, we must first breathe a breath of bird breath for Dao Ancestor...... This is the clay statue I ordered someone to carve in the image of Yan Xing, Yan thief dares to destroy the statue of Dao Ancestor, we also have to smash his little clay figure, soldiers, send a few representatives up, in front of the soldiers of the three armies, smash Yan Xing, the dog thief, to death! ”

When the words fell, I saw several high-ranking generals of the Hanzhong Army, blushing and running to the front of the general's platform, pushing hard, pushing Yan Xing's clay statue to the ground, and then kicking and kicking it repeatedly, 'crackling' smashed Yan Xing's clay statue to a pulp, and the more he stepped on it, the more he smashed it, the more enjoyable it became, only the clay statue trampled on the fine pieces, and it was almost like powder before he stopped.

There was even a ghost general who was still angry, and took off his pants in public and urinated on the muddy powder before returning to the battle.

This move not only did not get everyone's reprimand, but got the loud cheers of the Hanzhong Army, like a hero, with high spirits while lifting his pants and waving his hand to greet everyone's praise.

Seeing that the Hanzhong army was very warlike and hated Yan Xing, Yuan Shang's heart was almost hot, and then he inserted the sword in his hand on the general's platform and spoke loudly.

"Soldiers! I have made up my mind, I will make dinner tomorrow, march into the army, and send the army to Chang'an! Take the head of the thief...... Let's chop him up piece by piece and throw him into the gossip furnace of Dao Ancestor! Practice into a plaster to avenge Dao Zu! ”

"Kill Yan Xing!"

"Kill Yan Xing!"

"Kill Yan Xing!"

"Revenge!"

"Revenge!"

"Revenge!"

"Kill~~~!"

"............" (To be continued......)
