In mid-June, the tumultuous debate on Buddhism and Taoism finally came to an end. Compared to the expectations at the beginning, this conclusion is a bit anticlimactic, and even the outcome of the debate has not been clearly announced.

But soon the people were in no mood to wonder what the outcome would be, because what happened next was even more exciting.

The great monks felt that the sand gate was hidden in dirt and dirt, and the mud and sand were all down, so they played the imperial court, hoping that the court could clear the sand gate and promote the Buddha and protect the law, and the court also responded to this call, and soon issued the "Ritual Department Protector Style", thoroughly investigate the lawlessness of the sand gate in all the states and counties of the world, severely punish the demons and evils, and promote the law!

From the end of June until the whole of July, the action to promote the Buddha and protect the Dharma was also in full swing, and the results were very fruitful.

Compared with the same period in history, the scope of the territory of today's Western Wei is much broader, and the actual scope of control is even more extensive than that of the Northern Zhou before the unification of the north, in addition to the territory of the original Western Wei and Northern Zhou, there are also the Huaixi region west of the Hengjiang River, as well as Yingzhou, Xiangzhou and other large areas west of Jiangzhou on the south bank of the Yangtze River.

However, in this operation to clear Shamen, Shannan, Shuzhong and Huaixi were not included in the scope, and the focus was still on the Guanlong area west of Tongguan.

Since this area is the traditional sphere of influence controlled by the Western Wei Dynasty for many years, and Li Tai has also been in a stable control situation after taking power, it is enough to screen the Shamen personnel in the area in more than a month.

After this screening, there are nearly 7,000 large and small temples and nunnery in Guanzhong and Longyou areas, although this number is still more than the heyday of Buddhism in the Northern Qi Dynasty, but the Western Wei Dynasty itself has a thin foundation and a small population, and it still has such a scale, and it is not much lower than the Northern Qi in terms of the proportion of social resources involved.

Among them, although the geographical area and population of Longyou are far smaller than that of Guanzhong, the number of temples owned by it is almost equal to that of Guanzhong. This point is also in line with the trajectory of Buddhism in the east and Longyou Dachang.

Of the nearly 7,000 temples, more than 3,200 were eventually preserved, and more than half of them were removed and no longer allowed to engage in related religious activities.

Such a knock-out is not small, and it has also caused a lot of turmoil, but for ordinary people, the so-called turmoil is more of a psychological shock, and there are very few cases that can further develop into turmoil.

This is because while the government is dismantling these monasteries, another group of monks is not only enthusiastically cooperating, but also enthusiastically calming the people's emotions in order to seize the faith market that has been released after this reshuffle.

These preserved temples are naturally willing to cooperate with the government's regulations and rectification, or they are private temples that are not operated for the purpose of soliciting believers and making profits.

After a special operation that lasted for more than a month, in addition to the harvest of purifying the environment of religious belief, other benefits can also be described as amazing.

First of all, the first item is the population released from the temple, the monks, novices, and monks in the temple, and the monks and monks of the temple, etc., men, women, and children, have expanded the population of more than 300,000 people! Counting the more than 3,000 temples that have been abolished alone, each temple has to shelter nearly 100 people from the government's control. According to the five people for one household, it is a full 60,000 households, and a large state with a solid number of households is just that!

But this is only a part of the Guanlong Temple, and the remaining part includes many of the largest temples in Zhuzhou and County that have not been affected, and the population under their influence may be several times that of those who have been identified. In other words, the population of the Guanlong area alone is at least a million people!

This figure is absolutely appalling, you must know that the population of the prefectures and counties in the world is only 700,000 according to the statistics of the 13th year of the Great Unification.

Of course, in the thirteenth year of the Great Unification, the territory of the Western Wei Dynasty was still very limited, and large areas of Hanzhong, Shuzhong and Shannan were not yet under the control of the Western Wei Dynasty, but the scope of its territory happened to be equivalent to the scope of the temples screened by the current overlord.

In other words, within this area, right under the nose of Yuwentai, the head of the overlord, the Shamen monks sheltered a population of more than 200,000 households

, almost one-third of the population controlled by the tyrant! To say that the Buddhas are rich and rival the country, that is really not covered.

The population of Buddhism in the Western Wei Dynasty is already very exaggerated, and the data in the Northern Qi Dynasty is even more exaggerated after the operation of Gao Yang Hui Dao and the Buddha. It is said that there are more than 40,000 Buddhist temples in Northern Qi alone, and there are more than 3 million monks and nuns, and the monks and nuns only refer to the monks and nuns in the temples.

This data is exaggerated and somewhat implausible, but it can also be regarded as a reflection of the vigorous development of Shamen in the Northern Qi Dynasty to a certain extent.

Even if only one-tenth of them were the working population in the prime of life, even if only one-tenth of them were in the prime of life, it was enough to maintain the cultivation and production of the Hussar Mansion and solve the dilemma of the labor force in the provinces.

The hussar lords may not have known that this special operation was to solve their labor shortage, but they all heard that the official government had obtained such a large number of people, so they also rushed to the overlord and repeatedly begged Tang Gong to allocate the population to their hussar mansion.

Seeing that the autumn harvest is coming, if there is no longer enough labor to use, let alone those government soldiers, I am afraid that even these generals will have to disarm and return to the fields and participate in the autumn harvest in order to compete for agriculture.

Among the military mansion masters, a number of Feng are the most well-informed, and they came to the imperial city prime minister's mansion with a cover early, and they didn't plan to leave until they asked for Ding Gong.

The arrival of a number of phoenixes is naturally not Li Tai's news, since he put this kid in this position, he has to rely on his ability to experience, naturally he will not take special care. The real report was his father-in-law Li Gang, who served as the assassin of Qizhou, Li Gang himself had to take care of this prospective son-in-law, and the monks and temple slaves in Qizhou were led away from his territory on the front foot, and he sent people to Xianyang to inform several Feng to hurry to the Prime Minister's Mansion to ask for someone.

After the other lords of the mansions such as Liang Shiyan and Li Yantou saw this, they also followed the same example, and directly set up stalls and floor shops in the Prime Minister's Mansion. In short, the current situation is a situation where there are more wolves and less meat, and only crying children can have milk to eat, and which military government can be more calm if they take the first step.

"The last general is fortunate to be selected by the Lord and out of the town's military mansion, and he looks forward to serving the army all night! However, the military government is very weak now, so that everything is in a famine, although the last generals and others are not willing to work hard, but the work can only be used for a small purpose, and it is very beneficial to see things. Is the blessing and food of the servant for servitude? Every thought is trapped, and I want to die of shame, and I beseech the Lord to give me the power to save the last man when he wants to die!"

In order to be able to give priority to the assigned forced labor, these mansion masters also did everything they could, wiping tears and complaining about grievances became a basic operation, and the shame was even stronger than ever.

The snatching of personnel is only the participation of the military government, while the allocation of resources in other aspects has attracted more attention from the Cao Division.

Since Li Tai entered the customs a few years ago, he has been overstretched for a long time, but with this sweep, it can be said that he has completely regained his feet! With the industries of more than 3,000 temples and the materials accumulated in the temples, this wave of windfall even far exceeded the Nanliang treasury swallowed in one bite in the Battle of Gangneung!

After all, although the treasury of Nanliang also has a lot of treasures, it is not easy to realize the various treasures and treasures seized, and it is difficult to directly put them into production and life.

However, the accumulation of these temples is really in time for emergencies, and most of them are items that can be directly used and circulated, especially grain, and all kinds of grains and rice add up to more than 9 million stones! Even Li Tai, the king of Guanzhong Grain back then, really knelt down for the Buddhas when he saw this number!

After all, temples often have a large area of cultivated land and temple property, and there are temple slaves who work hard, and the temple itself does not bear the field rent and tax, and all the grain harvested can be accumulated in addition to the consumption of the temple itself.

At the same time, due to the bumper harvest in Guanzhong year after year, many households also have surplus grain, so they often choose to donate the grain to donate it, hoping to accumulate blessings, and the temple is happy to accept such offerings.

For example, in the old years, Li Tai was in Longyou Guangming Temple

At that time, after the monk Tan Jing finished speaking, he had to ask Li Tai for three liters of millet, and the result was that he and the entire temple were accompanied by Li Tai.

The accumulation of various conditions has resulted in an extremely abundant amount of food stored in the temple. Now Li Tai has directly picked up the nest of rats, and the harvest is naturally extremely rich. And when he thought that he still had more than 3,000 blood bags like this, Li Tai couldn't help but be even more excited!

Since these confiscated and closed temples are widely distributed between Guanlong, the assets of these temples have become the material basis for the next step to continue to promote the government soldiers to grant land.

Of course, with the previous experience of various difficulties in the hussar mansion, Li Tai would not be too optimistic and blindly expand the scale of the government soldiers to grant land, after all, the purpose of granting land is not the goal, the real purpose is to create a situation where soldiers and farmers are united, and they are cultivated and fought. Therefore, in addition to land assets and material reserves, manpower should also be reserved.

With the big rockets brushed by the Buddha's old irons, Li Tai is also unprecedentedly refreshed, and the original idea of being ready to recuperate for a period of time and engage in internal affairs after attacking the Turks has changed slightly: Lao Tzu has more than 9 million stone of grain, so what are you afraid of? Find the right goal is to do it!
