When the Han Dynasty had already decided to give the Kushans a severe blow, the upper castes in the southern part of the Kushans had truly completed the gathering of troops and were preparing to mobilize troops to their eastern border.
As for the nobles in the north, they are just watching the fun. They make fun of the southern novices every day when they have nothing to do, saying that they will lose this battle. However, it is not surprising that the northern nobles look down on the high castes in the south. There is no way, the high castes in the south The Army is such a disgrace.
During the confrontation along the Indus River, the northern nobles brought in five types of dual-talented super elites. The southern high castes actually only had two super elite legions and a Kshatriya warrior legion. In the south, a fight really broke out that time.
However, at that time, the imperial guards of the Kushan Empire who were subordinate to the royal family were all standing in the south, and the northern nobles were still discussing whether to take down the bastards in the south. This shows what kind of gap there is between the two sides in land warfare. .
However, the army of the upper castes in the south is weak, but their shipping and navy are still very reliable, at least eight blocks ahead of the northern nobles. After all, the people in the north of Kushan are basically unable to get on the ship. This seems to be why the royal family wants to Reasons for preserving the upper castes in the South.
Simply analyzing the current situation, for Vesudev I, the upper castes in the south conquering the Han Dynasty in the southwest is actually a decent step. Whether the people in the south can win or not, it is not important to him, he needs It is an opportunity for the integration of the north and the south.
In the opinion of Vesudeva I, now was the opportunity. Although the Zoroastrian archbishop did not speak much, he hit the nail on the head every time and was able to grasp the context of the matter. No matter whether the south wins or loses in this battle, In Vesudeva I's life, it was all an opportunity.
Of course, in this respect, Bishop Ashasheng just smiled. If Vesutiva I could use this to integrate the southern and northern Kushans, he could just give his head to the other party.
The power of the southern high castes is based on the navy. It is not unacceptable for them to lose the army. As long as they keep the navy, their overall strength can basically maintain a balance with the northern aristocrats. In this case, Vesudeva I If you think this is an opportunity for integration, Ashayana can only say, Your Majesty, you are really impatient.
Let the southern high castes attack the Han Dynasty. Knowing that the result will definitely be a defeat for the south, Ashayana's plan is essentially to intensify the contradictions. Do you think this is an opportunity? Hey, the southern high castes will bow their heads? Since the upper castes in the south do not bow their heads, we agreed at that time to take a step back, and the nobles in the north gave us a step back. If we don't fall out this time, I won't have to take the surname Chen.
The aristocratic family, not to mention other aspects, are good at playing with people's hearts. Chen Xunsi, just like the Yuan family said, these three families are not good. If you scroll forward, there are more black materials than the Yuan family. Of course, the Yuan family is not that good either. It’s a good thing, but the Yuan family themselves have admitted it.
After all, they are all chasing profits, and they are more evil-minded. If they have the opportunity to do something absolutely, they will engage in two tigers fighting each other. They sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, waiting for nothing. Who has not done this kind of thing? I really think that They are all little white flowers! Which family and which surname? When they first walked on the road of conspiracy, they did not crawl out of blood.
It was only after reaching a certain height that the bloody accumulation stopped and began to use gentler and more regular methods to accumulate.
Its image has been described a long time ago. The aristocratic family is essentially a coquettish flower blooming in the land of sin. This is a class that can only be maintained by cannibalism. No matter how well it is whitewashed, it cannot explain its cannibalistic nature. As for the difference, there is no difference. It's more about eating one's own people or eating outsiders.
The current situation is that the way of eating one's own people has been blocked. The family can only eat others. Anyway, it is not eating anyone. It tastes good if it is nutritious. Kushan tastes very good, and it tastes good. It's comfortable, but a little big and full of food.
Chen Xunsi feels like this now. The three of them can jointly eat one-tenth of the money before the Han Dynasty comes. I really hope that they can wait fifty to a hundred years. The three of them can probably make you rich. Shuang directly exploded into three pieces, and then the family took one piece and left. The Central Plains did not need to go back, and the country was founded on the spot.
However, the situation was like this, and Chen Xunsi didn't have any good ideas. To be precise, he was able to take such a head start because the three of them were closely related, and there was a big boss behind them to help support them, and they were the first to take the lead as a test subject.
Otherwise, if you look at other families who are still reclaiming land in the country and looking forward to the future together, you will know how good the current situation is. If you take the first step in this general trend, the latecomers will have to spend three to five times the wisdom and effort to catch up. The strength is simply impossible.
Even Chen Xi cannot avoid the exchange of favors, otherwise why would Chen Xunsi have now inserted his hands into Guishang's chassis and begun to absorb nutrients to strengthen himself? Indeed, these three families are very strong, but there are not families in the Central Plains that can rival them.
To put it bluntly, there is still not enough time for such a great situation. It can only be said that these three companies are indeed unpopular, but it is also true that they cannot grow to this extent without ambition.
"Master, the Brahmin nobles invite you to give lectures again." A novice said to Sima Zhang with great admiration.
Sima Zhang, who was nearly fifty years old, nodded kindly and stood up slowly. The big boss of the Sima family didn't even bother to change his name. No one knew the elder's name, but his thoughts and philosophies recognized by all.
The son of Sima Liang, the younger brother of Sima Jun, and one of the highest-ranking direct descendants of the Sima family. Sima Yi met the man who needed to be called the second grandpa. This time, in order to give the Sima family a five-hundred-year period of great prosperity, the old guy personally traveled westward to do his work. The leader of the Sima family.
Over the past forty years, he has intensively studied the selected works of various scholars, speculated on famous writers, and received the blessing of the dialectical thinking of later generations. When it comes to philosophical thinking, this guy is almost an unsolvable master.
After all, it is difficult to defeat your opponent during a debate, but it is even more difficult to deal with a big boss like Sima Zhang who is good at absorbing foreign ideas.
In addition, Guishuang is a big place, just like the Central Plains. You never know where in the corner there is someone who has been thinking and studying behind closed doors for decades, and then suddenly became enlightened and emerged from the sky.
This is also the case in Kushan. Even Moggallana and others who openly inherited the identity of Buddha's disciples in Buddhism cannot guarantee that their magical powers and wisdom are the strongest among the ascetics.
Especially wisdom, magical power cannot be guaranteed, after all, it can be inherited from predecessors, but wisdom, this kind of thing, once enlightened, maybe an ordinary person will become a person of great wisdom.
After all, there is a saying that all knowledge in the world is knowledge. These are all wisdom. The more ordinary, the closer to wisdom. The so-called human law and heaven, who knows that the wisdom of ordinary people after enlightenment is not as good as the so-called enlightened one in Buddhism, Bodhi.
Therefore, Sima Zhang easily integrated into the Samana circle. After all, the circle itself is a very loose organization. There is no introduction and no guide. It is difficult for ordinary people to move forward, but for someone like Sima Zhang who has already realized For those who understand people's minds, it's very simple.
Nothing can touch people's hearts more than wisdom, and Sima Zhang's wisdom in speculative philosophy was enough to make many people feel the brilliance of wisdom, so soon Sima Zhang gathered a group of novice monks who respected him as their teacher.
[This speed is still slow. The progress of the Chen family and the Xun family is really too fast. ] Sima Zhang calmly sat on the white elephant with a gentle smile and walked slowly towards Baiwasha.
In fact, the progress of the Sima family has been very fast. Being able to ride a white elephant now is enough to explain the problem, but compared to the completely illegal progress of the Xun family and Chen family, it is really not worth mentioning.
[It seems that the only choice is to join forces with the Brahmins. Those two families are too bastard and have taken advantage of my Sima family. 】Sima Zhang felt heartbroken when he thought about the situation when the three families drew lots. Why did the Sima family draw this lot?
Sima Zhang spoke about the Buddhist scriptures he understood with peace and spontaneity. All the high-caste Kushan people nodded their heads, once again feeling that this unknown master was truly extraordinary.
There were even several nobles of Brahmin origin who wanted to invite Sima Zhang to be guests. However, Sima Zhang had always refused these invitations indifferently in the past, so the invitations from these people were a bit reserved.
However, now that he wanted to get in touch with the Brahmins, Sima Zhang rarely agreed to the Shukla family's invitation. Looking at the slightly moved expressions of the others, Sima Zhang knew clearly that his previous wisdom and philosophy had attracted the attention of these nobles. .
The Shukla family also gave Sima Zhang a lot of face, setting up a team to welcome distinguished guests, singing and dancing to welcome Sima Zhang. Of course, Sima Zhang did not choose this family because of these things.
Unlike other Brahmin families, this family has quite good relations with many Kshatriyas who hold military power.
What Sima Zhang wants is the information about the Kshatriya family. It would be too conspicuous to stay with the Kshatriyas directly. The advantage of staying with the Shukla family is that on the one hand, he can get in touch with the Kshatriyas, and on the other hand, he will not be suspected.
The master of the ascetics, the wise man of philosophy, gave the Kshatriyas who came to visit the Brahmin's home to read on demand. This is fate, and it is so wonderful.
Sima Zhang just lived in Shulak's house, using his own eyes to see the high castes coming and going, using his own ears to listen to the secrets they said, and using his own heart to connect the relationships between the various nobles in Baiwasha. , and strive to form a network of relationships.
Therefore, before the high castes in the south sent troops, Sima Zhang obtained another piece of information, information about the Kshatriya class in the south. This class has masters far beyond other classes, and more importantly, this class is a bit weird.
