Yu Yue curled up her lips: "So, are you planning to use Tao Yuanming's ambitions to get him to join the mafia?"
The black robe said sternly: "Tao Yuanming had the opportunity to become a white tiger before, but he gave it up because he wanted Jingzhou, not as a guard of the mafia, so you can negotiate terms with him, as long as Jingzhou is given to him in the future. You can ask him to do things for you, especially this big event."
Yu Yue gritted his teeth: "He knows our secrets and has never betrayed us to Liu Yu, but he has never joined us. How can I discuss cooperation with this person?"
The black robe smiled slightly: "Leave this to me. If I can convince you today, I can convince him. However, you need to agree to this condition. As for whether you will regret it afterwards or how to deal with Tao Yuanming, I don't care."
Having said this, a strange smile unconsciously appeared at the corner of Hei Pao's mouth, which disappeared in a flash, but he was very sure that Yu Yue would never understand the meaning of this smile.
Yu Yue breathed a sigh of relief: "Tao Yuanming once rejected Liu Yu in public, and he has not been an official these years, but he often spreads the theory of Huang Lao among the people, and uses the banner of benevolence, justice and love to win people's hearts. We I have noticed him for a long time, but I didn’t expect that he would actually have ambitions and be connected with you.”
The black robe nodded: "Tao Yuanming had the opportunity to join the mafia before, but he gave it up, so we knew this person was available for a long time, but the previous layout for him did not reach the stage of substantial cooperation. This is a good opportunity, and he does not reject Buddhist teachings. If you look at the Peach Blossom Spring written by him, what he wants is an ideal world that is pure and inactive, and is not controlled by the emperor and the court officials. Such a world, in this world, only It may exist in Buddhist temples, so I showed this principle to him when I talked about Xuan in Qing Dynasty before. This time there is a good opportunity for him to make a contribution first, and then go to the Later Qin army to contact him as Sima Guofan as an introducer, if there is a chance in the future
If he could be allowed to borrow part of the troops of the Later Qin Dynasty to replace Liu Daogui in guarding Jingzhou, then he would definitely be willing to make this deal. "
Yu Yue said excitedly: "What do you mean, he will also join the mafia in the future? Become one of us, but he refused last time."
The black robe waved his hand: "At this moment, at that moment, the mafia at that time had just encountered the Sun En Rebellion, and almost all their savings were destroyed. At this time, it is neither beneficial nor very dangerous to go to the mafia to take over Bai Hu's position. The so-called It was a wise move for a gentleman to not join the country. But if he has strength, an army, and our support, he will reconsider. However, in the future, the relationship within the mafia will be We will not interfere in your own affairs."
Yu Yue frowned and said in a deep voice: "Are you really going to give up your support for Tao Yuanming? This makes me a little bit unconvinced. Since he is willing to listen to you, why don't you help him?"
Heipao smiled and said: "With you taking control of the Black Hand Universe and cooperating with us, why should I fall out with you for Tao Yuanming? If you can talk to each other and allow him to control Jingzhou in the future, that would be the best. If he If you want to follow Huan Wen's example and withdraw from the Mafia World and become independent, then you will have conflicts sooner or later. When the time comes, I will fight against you because of Tao Yuanming, which will do me no good. My first goal now is to defeat Liu Yu, not because of how talented I am. I hate Liu Yu because Liu Yu’s existence will hinder our Tiandao Alliance’s plans, so we must get rid of him. I will support whoever can cooperate with us in the future.”
Having said this, he paused and looked at Yu Yue: "I will not interfere with your family's control of power in the world. I just need that you can provide enough manpower and resources for our plan by then. Don't worry, Buddhism Intervention will not affect your power, because in essence, they are the same people as you. They all use the slogan of being superior and benefiting all people to seek personal gain for themselves. Since it is only for their own interests, it will not be too By safeguarding the rights of the people at the bottom, this is fundamentally different from Liu Yu."
Yu Yue nodded: "What Liu Yu wants is a reputation that will last forever, while we want real benefits. This is fundamentally different. After all, Liu Yu can even give up his wife and son for his reputation. This kind of We can't do it. Heipao, as long as you can convince Tao Yuanming to give him to Meng Chang and Xu Xian
If I want to send a message, what do I need to do here? "
The black robe pondered for a moment and said: "I need you to write a handwritten letter in person, saying that Liu Yi's army is defeated and the situation is very bad. You must stay in the front to fight guerrillas and hold off the Tianshi Dao army as much as possible, and you need the support of the army in the rear. Tao Yuanming has discussed with you that he can contact Sima Guofan and ask Sima Guofan to lead the troops of Later Qin to rescue him. The condition is that the imperial court issues an edict to pardon Sima Guofan and formally asks for help from Later Qin. As for the subsequent return conditions, It's up to you to talk about it, let Hou Qin send troops first and then talk about it."
Yu Yue smiled and said: "This way you don't have to pay the immediate price, but you can get support immediately. No one will object to it. As long as I can return to Beijing to take charge of the affairs, I agree to expel Liu Yu to guard the border in Qilu Jiangbei, and then introduce Buddhism In return for this rescue, then a great thing will be accomplished?"
The black robe smiled slightly: "Yes, at that time, we will issue an edict for Tao Yuanming to succeed Liu Daogui as the governor of Jingzhou, and Meng Huaiyu can command the soldiers and horses of Jingzhou and Jiangzhou to pursue Guangzhou and eliminate the remnants of Tianshi Dao. In this way, Meng Huaiyu did the great work, and Meng Chang would not object. As for Xu Xianzhi, his brother Xu Chite is in Liu Yu's army. If he is willing to obey and abandon Liu Yu and come to you, then Xu Chite can lead the army. Go to Yuzhou to guard, and you can sit in Jiankang and fully control the land of Sanwu."
Yu Yue curled up his lips: "Sounds good, but if Buddhism is introduced, everyone will believe in Buddhism and not like killing. What will our army do in the future?"
The black robe smiled and waved his hand: "Yugong, you seem to have made a mistake. Now the Later Qin Dynasty has made Buddhism a state religion, but it didn't say that there will be no soldiers available. Come back to save the Jin Dynasty. , isn't it also an army of 100,000? Don't worry, Buddhism only says not to actively kill people and provoke wars, but it doesn't say not to defend the country and the people. If there is an invasion of demons and wants to harm the followers of Buddha, then The Buddha will also give ancestors to the soldiers who protect the family and the country. Killing demons and eliminating them is a great merit."
Yu Yue breathed a long sigh of relief: "I understand, let's do this for now. However, I still want to see if Liu Yi will be defeated in the end as you said. To be honest, I still don't believe it. What are your words?"
