Pastors, all things considered, this is a good deal. Originally, the two did not harm each other, and they will not harm each other in the future. The deal seems to be a good deal. Although the other party may have other plans. , Anyway, the two have not harmed each other, we will not lose anything, and we can send away a scourge, promise. As a result, the pastor Magellan on the other side quickly took out a contract and asked them to sign it. After muttering for a while, the two sides made an oath under the gods, and then signed the contract stained with divine power.

After the greatly puffed priest went out, the Duke of Lac City behind the screen came out: "It's that simple?!They signed it like this?" but was given a roll of the eyes by Dong Hezi: "I fought hard! Where did the 'simplicity' come from? They are used to seeing things with a static eye, so they feel that they will not have anything to lose." Hmph, there are a lot of struggles that are not directly slashed against each other, but special competitions. Obviously, they are still addicted to the habit of 'fighting between good and evil, between friend and foe'. Okay, no more nonsense. Tomorrow you will have a ceremony to change the name of the Mother Goddess of the Forest. The other lords are witnesses. The year after tomorrow or the year after tomorrow, when the forest rangers have trained the first batch of forest ranger disciples, you will join forces. If those lords are not satisfied, they will be cleaned up one by one. As long as you don't move the Church of Companions, they won't openly oppose you. When you unify these four parties, you must earnestly fulfill our agreement. ”

The older and less courageous the duke was still a little worried: "Isn't it too fast? I don't want to kill them, they're going to come and trouble me and my men. But Dong Hezi raised his hand and said firmly: "That is their initiative to provoke." The contract already says 'shoot or kill'. Of course, there will be small movements. If they really don't know each other, I'll come over and warn them! Why? Still hesitating? Are you old and ambitious?"

The duke smiled slightly bitterly: "The battle is very laborious and laborious~~~" I saw Dong Hezi say a sentence: "If you are a civilian, then live casually, and I don't bother to interfere." But now that you are in the position of a duke, a new world of great controversy will be formed in this time of change in the heavens and the earth. In this world of great contention, it is a dereliction of duty if you do not fight. Otherwise, what do you want to do as a duke? What are your subordinates still doing with you? Heaven will not take it, but will be blamed for it. ”

The duke's heart sank: 'The forest ranger wants to enter the territory. It seems that the decision has been decided. If I don't support them, they have to find someone else to support them. At that time, it will be other dukes and kings who will deal with me!' Then my heart was firm and my face was solemn: "Okay, that's it! As soon as I converted to the belief that the god Mekeli was going to conquer them, he would draw opposition from the people. Even I don't have a heart inside. So the time of the conquest was to be five years later. ”

But when he saw Dong Hezi, he smiled: "Who wants you to change your faith and immediately fight by force? What I mean by 'joint action' is -- to change customs and customs! To engage in an activity to change customs with your territory as the center, that is, to launch a cultural and ideological war! to spread new culture, ideology, and ways of thinking to the surrounding territories. If those lords are going to fight this war, then find some excuse to wipe them out one by one by force! This is not only what I mean, but also what the god Mekeli means. ”

The duke was a little confused: "Change customs? Is it useful? It is better to use this money to buy more armaments and hire some heroes~~~" But he saw Dong Hezi waving his hand and said: "Is the ethical order of the Companion Church really welcomed by everyone? Do you really accept their ethical requirements in your heart? The Companion Church said that husbands and wives should be loyal to each other and be unswerving until death. You have lost your wife, and now you can't find another woman, are you really willing? You haven't drunk since you killed your wife? As far as I know, the Maykelly Church doesn't have so many great rules. ”…,

The duke's heart moved: there are not a few rich people and nobles who are unhappy with the crooked rules of the Luo church. It's just that because of the general trend, I don't dare to openly oppose it. Could it be ~~~: "You mean that you can unite their forces?" The other party nodded: "Your overall thinking linkage is quite strong." ”

The Duke said, "But they are not good in character. Not a reliable ally. But he saw Dong Hezi reply: "I don't want them to be allies, but I want them to be your tools - for example, this wine, the Maykelly Church advocates drinking less or even not drinking." But it is not said: drinking is a sin, a bastard, a villain, going to hell, etc. Therefore, after you convert to the Maykelly Church, you can justifiably change the customary laws established by the Church of Pelo, and turn your own territory into a liquor distribution point, so that other rich and noble people can come and have fun, and let them know the benefits of kicking out the Church of Pelo. Use them to expand your reach. ”

The Duke understood a little, but there was another problem: "Using the law of depravity, you can gain the support of some middle and upper classes." But it will attract opposition from others, especially the lower classes. I'm just afraid~~~" But seeing Dong Hezi smiled: "You still haven't figured out what I mean." I'm just using wine as an example, and I'm not asking you to do something exciting. For example, if one of the husband and wife dies, the woman should be widowed, and the man should be widowed. Otherwise, it is sin, evil thoughts, and the devil. is a villain who has lost the ethics of good and evil. That's why you didn't find a wife. But in fact, if you don't practice this customary law, you will fall into cramps, and the sun and the moon will be gone, and the country will be gone. ”

The Duke replied, "It's just the habit of the people." Before the church of Pelo came to power, there was no such rule. On the other side, Dong Hezi spread his hands: "That is to say, in your place, in your natural environment, agricultural conditions, production capacity, and human race, there are no such regulations. These regulations are only a way to construct the ideal social form of the Church of Pela, and their methods are adapted to your conditions to form the present society. But in fact, your natural conditions do not stipulate that you can and must construct the ideal social form of the Church of Pero. In fact, it is also possible to construct other forms of society. For example, the Makelly Church was used to create a social custom that women do not have to be widowed and men do not have to be widowed, and like this, one by one, they changed customs and finally built a new social form. It's still going to work!"

The duke 'oh~~' paused: "But ~~~ What does this have to do with me unifying the Quartet?" Dong Hezi replied: "The Church of Peiluo is a political religion, and if you don't weaken its influence, it will be difficult for you to complete the great cause of unification!" ”

The duke oh~~' again: "Political religion is not good for me to unify the Quartet?" These words immediately attracted the roll of Dong Hezi's eyes: "You still don't understand? Political religion is nominally a religion, but in fact it is also a law and a grassroots political organization, and it is a guy who seizes power with you! For example, the dogma of the Church of Companion Luo says at every turn that people who violate the doctrine will go to hell, and they also make up some 'discipline inspectors' to check the situation of believers everywhere, and punish those who violate the dogma. None of the believers dared to disobey it, but all the people in society were his followers. Then all must not violate his dogma. Do you say that this is a dogma within a religion? Or is it a law of the whole society? For example, if you are a widower, nominally a dogma, but it is really just a dogma? If it is just a dogma, why don't you dare to take a step beyond the thunder pool?"

The duke, who had been deeply touched for many years, suddenly realized: "I understand! and the dogma of their church's donation." It is stipulated that believers must pay the tithe, otherwise they are hypocrites, and as a result, everyone has to pay the tax. Some rich people dare to evade taxes in front of me, but they dare not evade their eleventh taxes. Speaking of which, they have more tax-collecting power than I do!"...,

Dong Hezi nodded and said, "So, the power of you and those nobles has actually been divided between these political religions! And this political religion itself is one, although it is scattered among various countries. But if you have a unified church organization, and have the ability to issue mana and allocate taxes and resources in a unified manner, you will become the ruler of the government above you! ”

The duke became interested: "Then what is the difference between the political religion and the social religion you mentioned? What if the Makaili Church comes and becomes a political religion?" There are five basic characteristics: First, compulsory or semi-compulsory taxation. For example, the eleventh tax, etc. If you don't donate, you will say that you are going to hell, that you are not a believer, etc., and if you don't pay taxes, you will be kicked out and forced to pay taxes. It's called Faith. The second is the organized nature of gangs, especially those who renounce the party, such as those who betray the party, will be punished, showing the characteristics of gangs and underworlds. Third, the Shariah is higher than the law of the country, and even the law of the country is replaced by the law of the country. Because law is a low-cost means of adjusting the pattern of interests, the most efficient means of interest adjustment is obtained by dominating the legal field. The name is faith, but in fact it is to obtain the right to adjust interests, and the fourth is to impose equal treatment on believers and unbelievers in a semi-coercive manner such as laws or customs. The believer enjoys greater practical benefits in life, and preaching this good is necessary and just. For example, if a believer kills an unbeliever, the sin is light. The unbeliever kills the believer, and the sin is severe. Those who believe are taxed lightly, those who do not believe are taxed heavily, and so on. Fifth, they have come up with all sorts of wonderful excuses for large-scale military conquests. Three of the five are political religions. All five are standard political parties, dressed in the skin of religion, selling dog meat on the head of a sheep. The others are social religions or individual religions. ”

In the end, the duke is a mixed government. In the past, there was a matter of expanding the territory and swallowing up the territory of the old man, so he had some practical experience: "I understand." The purpose of compulsory taxation is to obtain funds for gang activities, which is to put it bluntly, the money paid every month after joining the gang, and the punishment of apostasy is to prevent the organization from loosening. In fact, the purpose of 'keeping the Shariah higher than the national law means that the gang rules are greater than the national law, consolidating the internal organization, and preparing to confront the political regime; equal treatment is to give the gang members actual benefits and promote the growth of the gangs; while advocating large-scale military conquests is actually aimed at overthrowing other gangs or plundering other civilians! Military power is also the core of the regime! These things are similar to those of the Frost Witches, except that they use hard knives to kill people, and some people use soft knives to kill people. ”
