Chapter 827: Wen He Cleans Up the Five Fighting Sects
Since entering the late autumn, the temperature on the boundary of Liangzhou is lower than one day a day, although it has caused great inconvenience to the people who travel, but on the road from Gaoping City, the capital of Liangguo, to Jinyang, the capital of Jinguo, there is still a lot of traffic every day, and there is an endless stream of pedestrians.
Among the pedestrians, some were travelers who were in a hurry to rush back to their hometown of Jin from Liangguo for the New Year, some were merchants who returned to Liangguo from the northeast, and some were Hu people walking inside and outside the Yumen Pass.
Today's Liangguo has become a hub connecting the inside and outside of Yumen Pass, the east and west of the Han Dynasty, and countless people, horses and wealth are transported to various places through here throughout the year. If you make an analogy, after the reopening of the Silk Road, Liangzhou's status in the Han Dynasty is like the lumbar spine on the human body, although it is usually not as important as the heart and brain, but if something really goes wrong, it can make the Han fall into the problem of "hemiplegia".
Liangguo's status today is inseparable from the painstaking management of former Minister Liu Yu, and it is also inseparable from the hard work of the current Minister of State Jia Xu.
Although Jia Xu is called a "poisoner" behind his back, he is not a cold-blooded and ruthless person, let alone a murderous and ruthless person. Many times, in order to exchange the minimum price for the greatest benefit, Jia Xu did not hesitate to use some of the methods that were criticized, although some cruel, but it saved the lives of many soldiers of the Protector Army. The world can slander him and ridicule him, but he doesn't care, as long as Zhao Xing can understand his hard work, it is enough!
Of course, Zhao Xing understands Jia Xu's hard work, and has always respected himself as a mentor over the years, not only giving Jia Xu unconditional trust and support, but also giving Jia Xu an honor and status that he cannot refuse.
Jia Xu himself has two positions, both as the minister of Liangguo and the military division of the Liangzhou Legion. If this position is left in the future, it will be equivalent to the political commissar of a large military region plus the secretary of the provincial party committee where it is located.
Jia Xu's eldest son Jia Mu, who is now just in his early twenties, has become the military division of the main force of the Montenegrin Army.
Jia Xu's eldest daughter, Jia Ying, has married Li Tiezhu, the commander of the Dragoon Army, and now the husband and wife are in love and harmony, and have achieved an enviable marriage. The upper limit of Li Tiezhu's potential is still unknown, and a legion commander will not be able to run away in the future anyway. And it was Zhao Xing who was the matchmaker for Li Tiezhu and Jia Yingbao, and the marriage was witnessed.
Jia Xu's second son, Jia Wan, has now reached the age when Jia Mu entered the Crouching Tiger class, and was naturally selected into the "small class" of the juvenile class.
From the beginning of the expansion of Crouching Tiger Village, Jia Xu's mansion was next to Zhao Xing's mansion, and on the other side was Guan Yu's mansion, which was enough to explain Jia Xu's status in the Zhao Xing group. At the beginning, the two cattle people that Zhao Xing recruited on the Zuixian Tower were Jia Xu and Guan Yu.
It is precisely because Zhao Xing treats Jia Xu so well that Jia Xu will spare no effort to guard the Liang Kingdom for Zhao Xing in Gaoping City, strangling the changes from within the Liang Kingdom in the cradle, and defending the invasion from the outside of the Liang Kingdom outside the border.
For the great contribution of organizing the people to prevent the spread of the plague this year, ensuring the safety of the entire territory of Liangguo, and also transporting millions of people to the northeast, Jia Xu never mentioned it after the incident. He felt that doing these things was just a matter of duty, and that even if another advisor came over, he could do just as well.
Recently, Jia Xu didn't think carefully about how to clean up Sima Yi, because the time has not yet come. Jia Xu is now focusing on how to clean up the five buckets of rice, and the Pope advocates Lu (Zi Gongqi).
It is said that since Sima Yi used the safety of Zhang Lu's family as a threat, forcing Zhang Lu to first enter Hanzhong to spread the Wudou Rice Sect, and then went north to Guanzhong to develop in the Sili area for more than two years, he actually developed hundreds of thousands of religious Taoists, and the Wudou Rice Dao in the Guanzhong area was rapidly spread everywhere with the posture of wildfire.
According to the words of Mr. Lu Simian, a famous historian in later generations, religion is self-righteous and feels that its cultural ideas are superior to others, so it spreads with the help of various means, and then causes many disputes and even causes great disasters. As far as national politics is concerned, religion is really not a "good man believing in a woman", but a "flood beast", once left to rage, it will only cause great disasters and many misfortunes.
It is precisely because he was vigilant and vigilant against all forms of religion from the beginning, and the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty happened to be an important stage in the development of Taoism and Buddhism in China, so Zhao Xing always consciously or unintentionally reminded his civil and military generals of the Yellow Turban Rebellion a few years ago, hoping that they would have enough sensitivity and discernment not to be confused by all kinds of religions dressed in kindness, and to resist and guard against it from the heart.
Zhao Xing's subtlety is undoubtedly successful, as can be proved by Jia Xu's current methods of dealing with Wudou Midao and Zhang Lu.
As mentioned above, at the beginning of the spread of the plague, Jia Xu deliberately invited a group of "god sticks" from the Guanzhong area, and asked these treacherous orders and ghost pawns to preach and pray for the sick people.
At the beginning, Jia Xu let people follow the statement of Wudou Mi Dao and boast about this sect as a god, and when religion as a superstitious old bottom was revealed by the cruel facts, Jia Xu let people criticize Wudou Mi Sect verbally and ruthlessly. As a result, the image of the Wudou Mi Sect in the territory of Liangguo plummeted, and it became an out-and-out "liar", and everyone shouted and beat them for a while, and they all spurned.
If it's just done at this step, it's too underestimating Jia Xu's means. He didn't just want to prevent the spread of the Five Dou Sect in the territory of Liang Kingdom, Jia Xu also wanted to use the influence of the Five Dou Sect to test and pave the way for Zhao Xing to step onto the "altar"!
Zhao Xing once said to everyone: "The position of ideological struggle is very important, if we do not occupy it, we will be occupied by the enemy!" Jia Xu felt that although this sentence was said more bluntly, it was really reasonable. Since many ignorant people are easily seduced by all kinds of bizarre doctrines and sects, why not take advantage of the great prestige that King Pingxi has established among the people of the northern land, and let Zhao Xing himself take the lead in establishing a powerful religion?
Since Jia Xu had this idea, he has communicated with Zhao Xing from time to time, and now he has gradually had the outline and context of founding Protestantism in his mind.
