No matter how much he roared in his heart, Changjue's face was compassionate, showing just the right amount of bitterness.
"What the emperor said makes sense, but Xingfu Temple is just a temple after all. Even if it has been passed down for many years and has some savings, it can hardly support it now."
Yiyin shook his head.
"The Master has misunderstood. I have no intention of letting Kofukuji Temple continue to expand its logistics supplies. I just want to ask the Master to issue a decree to order the nuns and samurai family in central and southern Nara to provide support for our army going south."
A flash of light flashed in Changjue's eyes, this imperial concubine Siba is a good person.
Although Kofukuji Temple still maintains its transcendent status, its control over secular forces has lost control.
But the only ones out of control were the mid-level and high-level nuns and warriors, and Tsutsui Shunkei was able to buy them off with benefits.
But the Ji warriors and ordinary believers at the bottom cannot be bribed because there are too many.
Japan is poor and the people live in hardship, and the military campaigns for years have aggravated the suffering of the people at the bottom. This gave religion the opportunity to develop vigorously.
Tsutsui Junkei can give middle- and high-level nuns the benefits of the samurai family, allowing them to ignore the Buddhist master and obey the orders of the Tsutsui family.
But the believers at the bottom have nothing. All they have in poverty is faith.
Unless Junkei Tsutsui can make them eat well and live a healthy life, it will be impossible to break the firm belief of the bottom class. And even the wealthy Owari couldn't do this.
To feed an adult woman, she needs about two kilos of food a year. As for Owari, a wealthy country with only three koku of mass production per capita, it also had to support military supplies and was always ready for war.
There is almost no poverty these days, and there is plenty of land with a grain yield of two and a half kilograms. But with years of war, civilians starving to death is no longer news.
Even Ji warriors have to go hungry, and sometimes they turn into evil gangsters to steal food rations.
In such a dire straits, how can there be a way for ordinary people to survive? Because of despair, faith becomes fanatical.
In the final analysis, the status of the Dharma Master comes from the believers. Tsutsui Junkei can usurp power, but he has absolutely no control over faith.
Just like Nagakaku is invincible, but unable to influence the secular forces bribed by Tsutsui Junkei.
The two sides hate each other, but they can't live without each other in ruling Yamato.
Yiyin's proposal gave Changjue a chance. Use the military strength of the Sibo coalition to suppress the nuns and warriors and re-establish the authority of the lawmaker.
The seven previous decrees of the Dharma Master were ignored by Tsutsui Shunkei. That was because she had no soldiers and could not threaten the Tsutsui family.
But Sibo Yiyin has more than 5,000 troops, nearly half of whom are Ji warriors.
If the nuns and warriors in the central and southern part of the country ignore the decree, Sibo Yiyin can completely rob it.
But once the decree was recognized, Tsutsui Junkei's strategy of ignoring the decree showed a crack.
She can rely on uniting with the Nun Wu family to sideline the Dharma master, and the Dharma master can also rely on seeking foreign aid to suppress the Nun Wu family.
Yamato's nun, the Takeka, has become a rat in the bellows, and she will suffer no matter what she does.
Then their attachment to Tsutsui Junkei will be shaken, and the master will have the possibility to break up the nuns and samurai family.
For Yoshihiro Shiba, Kofukuji is his strongest ally in Yamato because there is no conflict of interest between the two parties.
What Kofukuji Temple wants is religious privileges and the obedience of the nuns and warriors. There is absolutely no need for these charity funds, and it is useless to ask for them.
The ruling power of the traditional northern martial arts family had been given to Yiyin by the Dharma Master in the last meeting. The appearance was that Koriyama City had changed hands.
By obtaining Koriyama Castle, she can control the northern part of Yamato. The master's move has already made it clear how deeply she fears Tsutsui Junkei.
In this case, Yiyin will continue to climb up this ladder to make the relationship between the two parties more harmonious, because he is also worried about Tsutsui Junkei.
To start a joint war with Tokawa Ichitun, the biggest unrest factor in the surrounding area is Tsutsui Junkei.
Yiyin wonders if she, who has been rejected by the Dharma Master, will choose to fall into the arms of Miyoshi's family.
He didn't want to gamble, and he didn't dare to gamble.
Now Yoshiyin has obtained Iga Country and tasted the sweetness of power. It's like the little wolf licking blood for the first time, how easy it is to let go of that wonderful feeling.
Therefore, his mentality has changed. It is different from that of Shiba Yiyin who was living in Kyoto. He wants to keep this hard-won power.
He doesn't want to take any chances.
Then we must make sure that Tsutsui Junkei will not betray him, and the master of Kofukuji Temple is the insurance he uses for reinforcement.
The logistics supplies of Kofukuji Temple are fully sufficient for the Siba coalition, but he needs an excuse to tell Master Nagakaku that we have common interests and the same goal.
Changjue understood and said.
"Shiba Imperial Majesty has indeed thought carefully.
I will write down the decree now, and all the nuns and warriors will have the obligation to raise food, fodder and military equipment for you. If you slack off, your religious membership will be revoked and you will be kicked out of the sect. "
Yiyin gave a thumbs up in his mind, this nun knows how to play.
The nun samurai family who lost their religious status is the traditional samurai family who was kicked out of the guardian system. If you understand the fate of Iga Zhong, it is a tragic word in capital letters.
With the help of the Sibo Allied Forces, Changjue finally had a chance to get angry and show the majesty of the Dharma Master.
But this is not enough, Tsutsui Junkei has a nun warrior family with 300,000 koku.
According to the tradition of the samurai family, ten thousand shi can mobilize a reserve team, consisting of fifty warriors and two hundred ashigaru.
Three hundred thousand koku, that is a huge army of 1,500 Hime warriors and 6,000 Ashura.
If this army intervenes at the critical moment of the battle between Shihe Yicun and Shiba Yiyin, then the side being flanked will inevitably collapse.
Master Nagakaku's decree will make Tsutsui Shunkei scruple, and may also make her jump over the wall. What Yiyin needs is something more ruthless.
"Dharma Master, I have an unkind request.
The Miyoshi family is wreaking havoc in Yamato and tea is poisoning the Pure Land of the Buddha. Should Kofukuji Temple accuse Miyoshi Nagakei of being an enemy of the Buddha? "
Master Changjue looked at Si Boyi in horror.
I knew it wasn't that simple. How could this young man's methods be so ordinary? It turns out that what he wants is not a decree, but my life.
The enemy of Buddha refers to Mara in Buddhist allusions, also known as the sixth demon king and the head of the demons.
In reality, it refers to those who massacre nuns and believers and destroy the Buddha.
Speaking of which, Shihe Yisun entered Yamato, the Buddhist kingdom on earth, and the instigator behind it was Miyoshi Changqing, who could barely be regarded as an enemy of Buddha.
Once the identity of the enemy of Buddhism is confirmed, Tsutsui Shunkei will have no chance of uniting with the Miyoshi family unless he completely severs his relationship with Buddhism.
Tsutsui Junkei can be shameless and ignore his beliefs. But her army is composed of nuns and warriors, and the soldiers are all Buddhists.
This completely eliminated the possibility of Junkei Tsutsui joining the Miyoshi family.
But this Buddha’s enemy is not so easy to identify. According to tradition, all Buddhists need to share the same hatred.
What does sharing the same enemy mean? In recent times, this is an accusation endorsed by the three major Buddhist forces in recent times.
The Shingon sect, the Tendai sect, and the Ichigo sect, which were denounced as deviant and apostate by the first two, show the difficulty.
In the Kingdom of Yamato, Kofukuji Temple was the only Buddhist kingdom on earth before the success of Kaga Ichikui, and its status as a holy land of Buddhism is indeed high.
However, no matter how high its status is, it is only a monastery. It cannot represent all Buddhists and is not qualified to initiate the identification of enemies of Buddhism.
If Changjue is forced to activate, if something goes wrong. If you turn back, you will act recklessly and rebel with your own will, and the end will be no better than that of the Buddha's enemy.
How could she be willing to do such a thing?
"Don't blame Siba. It's not that the poor nun refuses to help. It's just that I can't do anything. Please forgive me."
Yiyin needs her to do this. Judging from the last confrontation, Nagakaku was willing to die as a martyr for the Shingon sect, and his devotion to the Shingon sect can be exploited.
What is needed now is nothing more than enough benefits to impress her.
Yiyin said.
"I have always admired Buddhism. If the Dharma Master is willing to name Sanhao Changqing as the enemy of Buddha, I would like to believe in Shingon Sect and become a lay practitioner."
Master Changjue was moved by this.
