Back at Ziyang Academy, Wang Xu began to retreat again. ◢ with ◢ dream ◢ small ◢ .lā

In this battle, a series of poems were released, and the two poems became the famous poems of Zhenguo, which made his literary tone increase a lot.

In terms of style alone, he has reached the peak of Jinshi, and there is no increase in it.

If you want to make progress, you can only increase it after integrating science and mind science, synthesizing the new Wang doctrine, and carrying forward the doctrine in Shilin, forming your own school and inheritance, and then becoming a great Confucian.

Therefore, Wang Xu is not in a hurry at all, because the formation of the school is not something that can be done overnight, and it is not enough to have classics, but also to dialectically with others to prove the advantages and correctness of his doctrine, which is a meticulous work worn by water drops.

On the other side, the White Lotus Sect, which had lost a large number of masters, began to shrink its power in Yangzhou.

At the end of August, a group of White Lotus cultists in Yangzhou revolted in a hurry, and before the spark could ignite, they were suppressed by the Yangzhou Zhizhou because of the lack of core combat power.

At the beginning of September, just when everyone thought that Yangzhou had been defeated and the White Lotus Church was lurking again, Jingzhou and Jiaozhou, both of the three states in the south of the Yangtze River, broke out at the same time.

Unlike the situation in Yangzhou, in the land of Jingzhou and Jiaozhou, the core combat power of the White Lotus Sect has not been compromised.

Even, the high-level White Lotus Sect in Jingzhou and Jiaozhou also learned the lesson of the high-level secret meeting of the White Lotus Sect in Yangzhou, which led to the capture of the king first by the thief, and turned it into zero.

There is the Dharma King secretly commanding, there is the Lord mobilizing believers, and there are walkers who are connected up and down.

The White Lotus uprising in Jingzhou and Jiaozhou covered the whole state in just two days, first focusing on the plague cured by Fushui to win over the people, and then to publicize that the Son of Heaven of Great Wu had lost his way, and that he should take the Buddha as the country and establish the Supreme Paradise as the core.

In the land of the two states, many ordinary people whose fields were washed away by the flood and who suffered from the plague joined the fantasy of establishing an earthly Buddha kingdom.

Loose cultivators, evil cultivators, demon cultivators, and some unorthodox cultivators who see benefits are even more secretly fueling the troubles.

In just a few days, in Jingzhou and Jiaozhou, countless marshals wearing white scarves and shouting that they have no parents and vacuum their hometowns have emerged.

These marshals have thousands of soldiers and horses, mainly one township and one town, and more than 100,000 soldiers and horses.

One or two may be inconspicuous, but in a county, more than a dozen marshals and hundreds of generals can emerge, and the combined power is terrifying.

Moreover, the White Lotus uprising was obviously carefully prepared.

Which squire saves grain, which landlord has more wealth, all in the calculation of the White Lotus Sect, if you attack, you must take, and if you take, you will win, for a time the squires in the villages and towns suffered seedlings, and there were gentry who dragged their families and moved to the county seat and important towns all day long.

On the other hand, the White Lotus Sect treated the ordinary people equally, and the stolen grain was distributed to everyone, and the robbed gold and silver were stolen by the six dukes and four people, which greatly increased the enthusiasm of the White Lotus believers.

After coming and going, the public opinion and the luck of the human race in the two states actually had the meaning of abandoning the Great Wu Dynasty and favoring the White Lotus Sect.

Soon, under the alliance of the elite soldiers of the White Lotus Sect and the traitors, many county towns fell one after another, but only the high walls of the city and the heavily guarded prefectures and counties were still under the control of the imperial court.

The imperial court was furious about this, and dispatched the county soldiers of the three states of the Central Plains to meet the masters of Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism, and slaughtered the Jiangnan to quell the chaos.

Judging from the prestige alone, the White Lotus Rebellion was a bit like the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom in the late Qing Dynasty, and it was conceptually even greater than the Yellow Turban Rebellion in the late Han Dynasty.

Although the Yellow Turban Rebellion at the end of the Han Dynasty was also dominated by believers, those believers did not receive actual benefits.

The White Lotus Sect is different, after occupying a place, not only will it distribute money and food to the public, but it will also select suitable people to be crowned as magistrates.

In a county, the population exceeds 10 million, and the incense condensed is a benefit that the monks can see.

With incense as bait, many loose cultivators and evil cultivators have changed their doors to join the White Lotus Sect, regardless of whether these people are sincere or false, at least on the bright side, they respect the leader of the White Lotus Sect as the leader, and the momentum of the Dalian Imperial Court did not expect.

Judging from the current form, if the White Lotus Sect is allowed to repel several encirclements and suppressions by the imperial court and gain a firm foothold in Jingzhou and Jiaozhou, it may not be impossible to defend across the river and break hands with the Great Wu Dynasty like the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom at the end of the Qing Dynasty.

Of course, there must be a premise here, that is, the main force of the human race sitting in the Two Realms Mountain cannot go south.

Otherwise, with the level of the miscellaneous soldiers of the White Lotus Sect, against the northern border army that can fight well, it is no less than taking an egg to touch a stone.

At the end of September, the White Lotus Sect swept through the two states, and the offensive was like fire, with the meaning of crossing the Yangtze River to the north.

At the same time, the leading general sent by the imperial court, the former secretary of the military department, was ambushed in Luokou, lost two in three battles, and retreated to the Yangtze River camp.

In these three battles, the imperial court lost 500,000 soldiers and horses, and the White Lotus Sect lost 300,000 soldiers and horses, which seemed to be a big defeat.

In fact, people of insight were not surprised, because the imperial court was defeated, and the imperial court used county soldiers, and they grabbed a large handful, which was not the main force at all.

On the contrary, most of the 300,000 people lost by the White Lotus Sect were elite believers who took the lead in the charge.

These people, as early as ten years ago, were collected by the White Lotus Sect during the great drought in the north, and only now have they turned into a strong force, and they can be regarded as low-level Taoist soldiers.

The court doesn't care how many miscellaneous soldiers die, it is a famine year now, and some people want to be paid as soldiers.

The elite division is not so easy, after the White Lotus Sect hastily revolted, there is no longer time to train elite soldiers, and the elite soldiers and horses held in the hands of each master are used a little less.

Similarly, after taking advantage of the early stage, seeing that the Great Wu Dynasty was going to encircle and suppress it, some loose cultivators who were fishing in troubled waters began to withdraw.

In mid-October, the lower ninth-rate monks who joined the White Lotus Sect to fish in troubled waters had at least six or seven out of ten, and only a few monks who had enmity with the three sects and were unwilling to retreat were still actively resisting.

It's just that all this has nothing to do with Wang Xu for the time being.

Wang Xu was addicted to books and couldn't extricate himself, and he copied a Confucian classic, and after marking his own name, he quickly sent it to the world.

How many White Lotus Sect demons have been killed by the officers and soldiers of Jiaozhou today, and how many cities have been captured by the believers of Jingzhou tomorrow, all of them are not in Wang Xu's consideration.

In the final analysis, the uprising of the White Lotus Sect was still hasty, and without Yangzhou, which had the same backbone, the White Lotus Sect could only use the land of two states to fight against the seven states under the rule of the imperial court.

Although it was majestic at the beginning, the court was caught off guard, but once the war came to a stalemate, it could only be the White Lotus Sect, which had a shallower background, that could be defeated.

Wang Xu didn't know why the White Lotus Sect Master was unwilling to wait any longer, but this did not prevent him from looking down on the White Lotus Sect.

Even if the White Lotus Sect had the beginning of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom at the end of the Qing Dynasty, the Great Wu Dynasty was not late after all, and the Great Wu Heavenly Son was not Cixi who was in power and interfered in politics, and the more it dragged on, the less likely it was to win.

On the contrary, just like during World War II, when Germany raided France, it waved its troops north in a short period of time and smashed the Yellow Dragon, so that the White Lotus Sect could survive.

Now that the two armies are stalemate, the White Lotus Sect has turned from offensive to defensive, and has begun to consolidate the land south of the Yangtze River, but there is no need to dream about it anymore.

"In just two months, the White Lotus Sect seems to be overwhelming, uniting the monks of the three schools of Loose Cultivation, Evil Dao, and Demon Dao, and driving the three families of Confucianism, Taoism, and Liberation out of Jing and Jiaozhou, and the momentum is monstrous. In fact, the White Lotus Sect is already at the end of its reign, especially those demons who do not obey discipline, killing people and setting fires are like family meals, it's okay to fight against the tailwind, don't even think about the headwind. ”

Wang Xu sat alone in Ziyang Academy, concentrating on writing, but he also heard some rumors.

To describe it in a polite sentence, many people in the White Lotus Sect forget the great righteousness when they see small profits, and they are undecided when they see great benefits, and they lack the decisiveness and courage they should have.

Enter like a thief entering the house, and be greedy.

Retreat like a lost dog, trembling.

No wonder the three sects call them the lower nine streams, the real things that do not enter the stream, the three religions fight openly and secretly, and the various sects are also incompatible, and they can all be united in matters to the outside world.

These people are good, they are all on the battlefield, and while guarding against the enemy, they also have to guard against their own people, how can they achieve great things.

Wang Xu looked at it, the White Lotus Sect could not teach the disease of ringworm and scabies, and it would take three years and five years, and it would definitely fail in one and a half years.

If you don't believe it, I'll go to see him in three or five years to see who is the real hero.
