Chapter 549: Clamor

Confession can gather secrets and intelligence, in fact, the church has always known about it.

It's just that they hide it well, and the people of the European continent have been fooled for so many years that they don't think about it anymore.

That's why the church can always sit back and relax.

Even if some people may think that this thing is not good, they don't dare to say anything more.

Despite the fact that the Church is not as powerful as it was in the Middle Ages, the Church was still crazy in the seventeenth century, but the emaciated camel was bigger than the horse.

Even in the 21st century, there are still many people in Europe and the United States who go back to church and priests to do repentance.

There will also be such scenes in some film and television dramas.

A man or woman, walked into the church.

He or she walked straight to a corner of the church, where there was a small wooden house with two spaces.

When a man or woman walks in, the priest will follow him.

One of them walked into a space.

This is the confessional.

In this confessional room, a man or woman will tell some of the evil things they have done, as well as some secrets they have seen, and gain spiritual liberation.

And the priest will deal with it by saying two pretending words, "God forgive you".

In fact, the priest laughed to death because they heard some secrets again.

Although these secrets may seem insignificant, as long as they are well controlled, they may be of great use at critical moments.

It is in this way that the Church has been collecting useful information and secrets and intelligence for hundreds of years.

God knows that the Dao was conceived by the genius of the church, and I have to say that there are still some perverted geniuses in the church.

However, one of the truest intentions behind the confession was broken in the Song Empire on the distant American continent. How can this not shake the upper echelons of the church?

They couldn't understand why those barbarians in the distant Americas could see through the unclever tricks of the church.

Is it really because of the oppression of the Church that the 'lambs' on the European continent have lost the ability to think, so they have been deceived like this?

Otherwise, how could the church have suffered such a big setback in the Americas and be seen through an important method?

Maybe...... Those people in the Song Empire are all very smart?

But in any case, it is an indisputable fact that church members have collapsed on the American continent, and if the church does not react to such a big slap in the face. Then the rumor is a big joke.

In this way, how will the church mix in Europe in the future?

You must know that the impression that the Church has always given to the European people is absolutely flawed.

Only when they take advantage, but not when they suffer.

Now that the church has fallen so hard in the Americas, and has been slapped in the face, I think the church must be taking revenge now.

Indeed, when the church received the news, the top brass was shaken.

Some people immediately shouted. It is said that the crusade will be reorganized, and the expedition to the Americas will destroy the pagan barbarians who do not obey God, so that they will tremble and tremble under the weapons of God's believers.

Only death and blood can add glory to the glory of God. Only in this way can the humiliation of the church be washed away.

They are God's spokesmen on earth, and they represent God.

The approach of the Song Empire on the American continent simply did not put God in his eyes.

So, as the executor of God's power on earth. They have to show each other how good the church is.

Of course, these people say this on their lips, but in their hearts they don't think so.

Oh, God?

Seriously. Even they themselves do not believe in the existence of God, because they have lived so long without seeing God manifest.

At the same time, as the top leaders of the church, they know much more about the Tao than the people.

What's more, some of the so-called miracles that occur every year in various parts of Europe are not made by the high-ranking people of these churches, and they are all personally involved in planning and carrying out them.

If God really exists, then there is still a need for them to pretend to be gods.

Moreover, from the earliest times, the Church, in the name of God, has taken advantage of the European continent, oppressed the good, and committed many evil deeds.

At the same time, in the Middle Ages, under the guise of God, the Crusades that lasted for more than 100 years were organized, and countless people died.

Especially at the time of the conquest of Jerusalem, the Crusaders, with the support and orders of the accompanying priests, slaughtered the innocent people of an entire city, committing a great crime.

Therefore, if God really exists, the merciful, loving Lord of the church's words will surely punish them.

However, those who committed crimes lived a very nourishing life and were not punished at all.

In this way, you still make the church leaders still not understand what is going on?

But those who can make it to the top of the church are not elites, they are not fools.

Add to that the fact that they have access to some of the church's secret texts, so they know more than anyone else on the outside.

Oh, God?

It's just words, but it's just a name and an excuse.

This thing can't be taken seriously.

This is a consensus in the minds of the church's top brass.

Having done this in their position, if he really takes God seriously, then he is really an idiot and fool.

However, it does not prevent them from talking about God all day long, and every day they open and close their mouths are 'God' and 'Lord', because they know in their hearts that they can have their current status and power, it is inseparable from this nominal spiritual idol.

Now, where their common interests lie, is being violated by empires on the distant American continent.

And not to mention the violation, the other party also involves their fundamental interests, if the church does not deal with it in time, it will definitely cause a big storm, and may even shake the foundation of the church.

Therefore, they had to stress about this matter.

Confession!

As long as it's someone with a little brain. You should know how unreliable this thing is.

Although the priests swore in the name of God, they would make strict promises not to divulge the secrets they heard.

But, who would believe it?

Oh yes, Europeans who have been brainwashed for almost a thousand years believe.

Anyway, Zhao Hongyu didn't believe it.

In this world, only secrets that you don't tell can be guaranteed, and sometimes even if you tell your wife and children, your parents can't protect it.

What's more, these are the assurances of a group of liars who already believe in the 'God' who don't know where they came from.

It's just that Europeans have been brainwashed for too long, and they have lost the ability to think for themselves.

And since the beginning of the Age of Discovery. With all the attention paid to the ocean and the gold coins, no one will pay attention to the church.

However, with the Song Empire on the American continent, such a blind spot in the church was pointed out, as long as the church did not stop it, then as time went by, the people on the European continent became more and more knowledgeable, and the church could not be mixed.

"We need to fight back now, those barbarians on the American continent are simply too deceitful!"

"That's right! Mobilize believers and launch a crusade against the American continent. We must wipe them off the American continent and glory to God! ”

Amen!

As soon as the high-level officials heard that the honor belonged to God, they hurriedly shouted 'Amen' in unison.

Subsequently. Another person continued: "We must continue to send pastors and priests to the Americas, where we must not give up, and everyone must know how rich the Americas are." How rich the Song Empire was. With such a large piece of fat and abundant grazing land, even God will not forgive us if we give it up. ”

This guy's words immediately attracted a burst of echo.

"That's right. There were a lot of gold and silver mines on the American continent, and the Song Empire was also very rich, and they had a lot of products there. We must take for God this land of great wealth, and I dare say it is richer than Arabia. ”

"Don't you all know the way, in addition to having porcelain, the Song Empire in the Americas also has a spice synthesized from thirteen spices, of course, you can buy a single one, it can be seen that there are more spices there than in Arabia, and at the same time, it is much closer to transport back from the Americas than from the East."

For a while, these high-ranking church officials who had penetrated into the eyes of the money all had golden light in their eyes, and they were talking enthusiastically about the wealth news of the Americas that they knew.

Seeing that the atmosphere of their discussion is a little more lively than just now.

As the pope, Carlos sighed in his heart when he looked at the fat-headed and big-eared bishops.

Are these guys stupid, or just pigs?

Didn't they think that the Song Empire in the Americas was so easy to defeat?

They also organized a crusade to the west, and it was really thanks to them that they could think of it.

An Atlantic Ocean is a natural barrier, and there is no ocean-going warship to make a fart to the west.

Moreover, I heard that the naval military strength of the Song Empire in the Americas cannot be underestimated, so the idea of a westward expedition is not very realistic at all.

Besides, even if you gather believers, who will pay for the formation of an army and a fleet?

At the same time, now that there are many wars on the European continent, it has become a pot of porridge, and you still want to open another front, which is really whimsical.

The Habsburg princely states would certainly have rejected this brain-dead proposal.

Pope Carlos cursed in his heart as he watched the bishops.

In the original history, the pope at this time was not Carlos at all, but I don't know if it was because of Zhao Hongyu's arrival, which distorted some historical reasons.

Therefore, Carlos, a figure who did not appear in history, actually became the pope. (To be continued......)
