To put it bluntly, this is a conspiracy, relying on the Ming Dynasty's terrifying international influence and countless prosperity and wealth. Even if no one defectes now, as long as they fight a few more tough battles and let them know that the Ming army is a tough opponent, they will naturally choose to ally themselves with the Ming Dynasty.
For thousands of years, China has had countless conspiracies. Now that the Ming army has taken control of the situation, it naturally has many ways to deal with these pagan religions. Zhu Su didn't believe that they could really deal with it in a hurry.
"Your Highness, there is movement outside the city." The sharp-eyed dog had already seen something strange under the city.
I saw a group of people running towards the door in the morning mist. The first person was none other than the pot-bellied Zawiya. He held a human head high in his hand. After galloping all the way to the city, he dismounted and knelt down. He shouted respectfully and venomously: "His Royal Highness the Ming Dynasty King Zhou! Your loyal servant has brought the rebels." Jamila’s head, and am willing to swear allegiance to you!”
This morning, when Jamila announced that she had united with the Zoroastrian forces and was preparing to jointly contact the believers in the city to storm the city gate, Zawiya quietly walked around behind the unsuspecting Jamila and chopped off his head with a machete. class.
The steps he gave himself were sufficient: Jamila did not care at all for the precious lives of Muslim believers in order to avenge herself. Moreover, there are already internal agents of the Ming army in the camp. Even if she does not take action, Jamila is likely to be attacked by these internal agents.
Rather than letting Nai Ying kill Jamila to perform meritorious deeds, it would be better to do it himself...
"Your Highness, be careful of fraud." Everyone's faces relaxed when they saw that the plan worked. The dog was still nervous despite his responsibilities. Zhu Su smiled and said: "It's just a few Muslims riding on the horse, how can it hurt me?"
"Let's go down to the city to greet them. Since they are willing to surrender, I will not hesitate to perform the courtesy of a corporal!"
So Zhu Su walked down the city wall, personally welcomed the Zawiya into the city, and allowed him to re-enter the mosque in the city to spread the Islamic teachings that increased the status of "Xumi". The same is generally true for other religions such as Zoroastrianism. There are traitors within the Ming Dynasty who were persuaded by the Ming Dynasty and voluntarily attached themselves to the Ming Dynasty and spread the changed teachings for Zhu Su...
"Your Highness, the teachings of these sects are complicated, and many of them are very different from our Ming Dynasty teachings. Let them preach, after all, it is not a long-term solution." The matter of the sect was gradually settled, Huang Guan took precautions, and gave Zhu Su some advice. "If Your Highness wants to include this place as part of our Chinese empire, you need to work hard to promote our Chinese education. This place is so ignorant. If a sect like the Tianfang Sect in the past gradually grows in power, how do you know that it will not reject us enlightened people?"
At that time, Zhu Su was checking the specific situation of the teachings preached by various sects to see whether they really regarded the Chinese as the first caste. Hearing Huang Guan's advice, he couldn't help but smile.
"We still need them now, and the city of Delhi is the epitome of the Shendu area. The major sects come and go and become a mess... It is not that easy for a unified and powerful sect to appear."
"But what you said is not unreasonable..." Zhu Su stood up and took a few steps thoughtfully.
"Well, since they can preach, so can we."
"You are the most familiar with the customs and customs of this place, so you can go there and learn from the best of all the religions in this place to come up with a religion that is in line with the interests of the Ming Dynasty."
"Students are going to teach...?" Huang Guan was confused.
I just wanted to remind His Highness to be careful about the sect getting bigger, but why...how did it become that I wanted to establish my own sect?
"How can the current religious establishment compare with the experience and foundation of those sects..."
"What, are you afraid of difficulties?" Zhu Su raised his eyebrows. "Now, the military and political power and great justice are all in my hands. Which religion to support and which religion to suppress can be determined by my thoughts."
"It's just a grassroots team. As long as it has powerful support, are you afraid that it won't be able to spread the word vigorously?"
"You can do whatever you want. If you don't know how, you can think of a framework to incorporate all the many sects and gods into it."
"The purpose of making me, Ming Dynasty, to be the son of destiny and destiny is to save all people in the world from water and fire... In short, you don't need to teach you how to do it in any way that is beneficial to you. Remember one thing, as long as religion can unite the hearts of all people, it will If his heart has something to rely on, he will not be afraid of not having any followers."
In later generations, Hong Xiuquan, a man with a scholarly education, casually turned over half of a Bible and came up with a "God-worshipping religion" that was neither Chinese nor Western and could be very successful. Zhu Su didn't believe it, so he tested Huang Guan's academic qualifications. , combining many messy religions, and with the personal support of the Ming Dynasty officials, it is impossible to create a powerful religion in this poisonous barbarian land.
Huang Guan accepted the order with a confused look on his face. Until now, he still didn't understand that he was just here to give advice, but why he got a job as a magician when he arrived. Zhu Su continued to look at the file in his hand. In addition to the eight thousand Ming troops in Delhi, various sects have also recruited a total of about 30,000 believer soldiers in their own names. These believer soldiers are used to defend the city. It is more than enough.
Because they come from different sects, they are not monolithic with each other. If they lose the central coordination of the Ming army, they will definitely be scattered. Therefore, there is no need to worry that they will usurp the city and commit rebellion, etc.
Now that the defensive strength of the city of Delhi is sufficient, it is time to lead troops westward to support the city of Thirst in the Hezhong region of Central Asia.
Zhu Su has been sending exploration horses to the west in the past few days, intending to detect the movements of Zhu Di's army at this time before making preparations for the march. However, before the sent out scouts returned, they first met a group of Chinese-looking rangers in this foreign land. These people have weathered faces, but most of them have firm faces. Most of them carry knives and swords, and at first glance they are not good-natured people.
"Your Highness the King of Zhou, we are members of the 'Qin Gang' under His Highness the King of Qin. This is 'Caoshang Fei' Bian Buping, this is 'Xiao Zhi Meng' Gao Ye, and this is 'Sai Guo Jing' Guo Nian …”
These people announced their names one by one. Although they looked respectful, they were actually a bit rude when they visited. However, Zhu Su didn't feel dissatisfied, and instead had a bit of surprise on his face: "Has the power of the second brother's Qin Gang developed to the point of being poisonous?"
"Okay, great! Climbing on the ice and lying in the snow in this foreign land is just for the development of China... You are all our Chinese heroes, and you can all be called the great chivalrous ones!"
With the spread of books such as "Shooting the Condor" and "Celestial Dragon". The four words "great chivalrous man" have become the highest praise for these knights-errants. Hearing such praise from the majestic King Zhou of his homeland, the faces of these people in the world were all bright. They first clasped their fists in humility, and then said: "Your Highness is actually ridiculous. The power of our Qin Gang has only penetrated into Yiliba, and has not yet reached Shendu."
"In this case, the deputy gang leader learned that His Royal Highness King Yan was at war with the Timur Khanate in the river, so he led a few of us thousands of miles away to rush to our aid."
"Your Highness, Timur's troops are extremely strong. To be honest, the situation between His Highness King Yan and the Marquis of Pingliang is not very optimistic. I heard that the poisoned refugees in the river informed me that a group of Ming troops had arrived in Delhi, guessing that they were reinforcements from the motherland. When we arrived, we accepted the order of the deputy gang leader and ventured east to visit the city of Delhi."
"Since His Highness is here in person, that's the best thing. Please ask His Highness to immediately mobilize the army and go to support His Highness King Yan."
Hearing that Zhu Di's situation was unfavorable, Zhu Su's face became serious. "I was also extremely anxious, but because I didn't know the truth, I needed to send a scout to investigate, so I was delayed for a while."
"Now that you are here, we will raise troops to march westward tomorrow... By the way, who is the deputy gang leader you are talking about?"
The Qin Gang is also quite famous in the North, but Zhu Su only heard that the leader of the Qin Gang is the King of Qin Zhu Ping who "conquers people with virtue", but he has not heard of any deputy gang leaders. The "Flying on the Grass" smiled unevenly and said: "The deputy gang leader joined the gang leader half a year ago, and then he was invited by the gang leader to be the elder's guest. His Royal Highness the King of Zhou did not hear about it, which is unusual."
"Speaking of our deputy gang leader, we were very famous in the world in the past."
"It's none other than the 'Invincible Monk' Zhang Dingbian!"
