Chapter 350: Propaganda

Originally, groundbreaking crafts such as movable type printing must have charged apprentices, but Wu Yingying personally ordered that the printing workshop should be opened to printers from all over the world to come and observe for free. It's just that most of the literati who printed books in the Central Plains were from wealthy families, and they all wanted to be exquisite in the paper and text of the books, and they thought that the font of this movable type printing was not as neat, clear and beautiful as the engraving, and it was impossible to have so many booklets of the literary war to be printed, so although Wu Yingying did not prohibit foreign businessmen from observing, this movable type printing was only popular in the right place of Longyou, Hexi.

The convergence of movable type printing and Eastern and Western trends of thought has made the Longyou area of Hexi become a place where all kinds of ideas and opinions are stirred, and this trend has involved supporters and folk believers from all sides, so that Dunhuang Zuo has reached the level of Luoyang paper for a while, and the biggest beneficiary is the Inquisition founded by Wu Yingying. The greatest joy of the monk is to discover that Yang Deliang's pamphlets contain some vague and radical words that violate the will of God, and his interest in studying heretical ideas and picking out words that go against the will of God is almost more than reciting the Tripitaka. The same is true of Yang Deliang, who is also the elder of the Inquisition. Every month, books in Dunhuang are confiscated by the Inquisition, but more books are printed and flow into the people, bewitching people's hearts.

Now the only Wenzhan general who has not been singled out is probably Liang Zuoqiu, one because of his high talent, and the other is that Confucianism and Orthodoxy have deep roots in the Fan and Han people, and no one dares to easily accuse a generation of Confucianism like Liang Zuoqiu of being a heretic. This is also the reason why Yang Deliang denounced Confucianism as a religion, and the elders of the other Inquisition were happy to see it.

Cai Yu looked at Liang Zuoqiu, who was writing hard, and sighed. Liang Zuoqiu's articles have always asked him to correct, Cai Yu found that he had unconsciously used a lot of knowledge in the "Dialectics" and "Logic of Form and Name" in the strange books of the Western Regions, and the arguments with these strange and chaotic sects were also mixed for Liang Zuoqiu.

Bianliang, Wang Yu said goodbye from the Dezhao Mansion, changed back into his original clothes behind a shop opened by a disciple of the sect, and walked out of the side door. His face was as calm as water, but his heart was excited.

The imperial court forced the anti-Wu heroes, Cao Han took charge of the army, and the situation was developing in favor of Zhao Dezhao. Pan Mei and Cao Han are generals who are deeply favored by Zhou Shizong and Song Taizu, Zhao Jiong killed his brother to seize the throne, and he used civilian officials to suppress the generals without military qualifications, except for Cao Bin and Pan Meinai are cronies and relatives, there are a lot of generals in the army, Cao Han seems to be a little dissatisfied, and he wrote his own angry poem "Retired General" Yun "once wore gold armor because of the national disaster, and was ashamed to sell the treasure knife for the poor family".

Wang Yu has been relied on by Zhao Jiong for many years, knowing that the recovery of Youyan Zone is in Zhao Jiong's mind, and now Han De has consolidated his power and governed the sixteen states of Youyun more and more prosperously, and the Han people are also very fond of him, Han Derang sent his subordinates to publicize among the Han people, if it is really occupied by the Southern Dynasty, the laws of the Southern Dynasty are cumbersome and harsh, and the salt and tea are heavily taxed, which makes some Han people have some doubts about the rule of the Song Dynasty. Yelu Huge, Yelu Xianzhen and other fierce generals will be used by Yelu Xianxiao, if there is no certain opportunity, the Northern Expedition will inevitably be defeated again. For Wu Yingying, who established himself as the king of Xia in Hexi, the imperial court did not issue a unified crusade plan, and it was also a precautionary move to send 50,000 forbidden troops to the northwest border in advance. However, if the main force of the forbidden army is hit hard, it is extremely important for the tens of thousands of forbidden troops originally stationed in the northwest to turn back.

Wang Yu secretly figured out in his heart, how to contact Cao Han, let him firmly grasp the 50,000 forbidden army in his hands, it is best to promote him and Wu Yingying to reach a tacit understanding in Yinxia Prefecture, not to waste his strength, how to collect Cao Han's heart from the king of Wugong County, and not to be noticed by Zhao Jiong, the situation that the soldiers and generals in the forbidden army do not know also began to appear, which can make Shi Shouxin and other generals infiltrate the 50,000 forbidden army under Cao Han to prevent Cao Han from turning the side at a critical moment.

While thinking about it, he was suddenly stopped by someone, and a servant came to report: "My master asks Lord Wang to board the car for a while." Wang Yu looked up and saw that a wide carriage was parked on the side of the road, which seemed to be used by the wealthy merchants of Bianliang, and he couldn't help but shake his head. The servant who delivered the message looked respectful, but his clothes were splendid, his feet were silk, and his expression was clear, not like an ordinary peddler and pawn, and the master who could serve such a servant must not be an ordinary person.

Wang Yu nodded and stepped into the carriage, but was stunned.

One person sat alone in the carriage, with a bookcase in front of him, a pot of tea and two cups on the table, and a copy of the Analects next to him. The carriage drove out slowly, and Wang Yu arched his hand and said: "The Prime Minister claims to be 'half of the treatise on ruling the world', and it is really inseparable. ”

Zhao Pu said: "Master, 'three provinces a day'. It is mostly miscellaneous skills. This book is kept by my side, constantly reminding myself not to deviate from the correct path of Confucianism. After a pause, he said, "Then Wu Yingying set up a tax collector's mansion in Hexi, and he was promoted only to see if he was good at financial management, and he used a sergeant to manage the households, but he was at the end of the day." Wang Yu picked up the teacup and said: "The so-called twilight is poor, and I have to go against the grain, that's it." However, he did so quickly, and the court wanted to pass through the northwest, but it was difficult. ”

Zhao Pu's eyes flashed, and he was immediately wrapped in thick eye bags, his fingers knocked on the table, and he muttered for a moment, and said: "Wu Yingying established himself as the king of Xia but did not call himself the emperor, and repeatedly sent envoys to my mansion to ask for the understanding of the court, and said that the king was a last resort, as long as the court crowned the king of Xia and reopened the border, he would be willing to pay tribute." The secret power has some friendship with him, what do you think about this person?"

Wang Yu pondered for a moment and said: "When we first met, like a clear water at the bottom, I gradually felt unfathomable. He saw Zhao Pu bowing his head and thinking about it, and his heart moved slightly, so he said: "The official family has decided to crusade against Hexi, and the prime minister thinks that there is still something to be done?"

Zhao Puzheng was thinking about his words, shook his head when he heard the words, and sighed: "Thousands of miles to the west of the river, with 100,000 armor, herds of war horses, the Tubo Uighur Party and all the departments, have to be a foot for the Central Plains, Wu heroes are all for their own use, full of wings, the Xia State is unstoppable, if the official family is bent on making enemies with it, I am afraid that the sea will be wasted, and there will be no gain." Wang Yu's eyes lit up and asked, "Does the Prime Minister think that things are still okay?" Zhao Pu glanced up at him, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said: "The secret power has just come out of the palace of Wugong County, so I naturally hope that things are still possible." ”
