Chapter One Thousand Four Hundred and Thirteen: A Spark of Fire, Yi Xiangzong and the Lord Hummingbird!
"Master! The second batch of 200 residents have been resettled! ...The first and second batches have a total of 80 households and 400 people, with more adults. Half of them will be resettled in Shengshan Main Hall and half in Bishiguan. Spring plowing in May
Now, each household should be able to carve out a dozen or twenty acres of dry land to grow some millet..."
"Well, Shou Dao, have you given me the support rice?..."
"Yes! Each household was given two pieces of millet. I have personally checked that there is no deduction. Eat sparingly and mix it with acorns, wild vegetables, leaves, and insects. It should be enough to last until the autumn harvest... According to the rules, each household has registered one piece of millet.
Ding is a peasant soldier. If these new households have too many Dings to eat and cannot survive the autumn harvest, they can register another Ding as a peasant soldier and receive an extra bushel of millet! It is estimated that after these 80 households stabilize,
We can provide one hundred peasants and soldiers for our family!"
"Very good! Give each household a spear and let them touch the weapon if they have nothing to do! These people are from Kinki and look a little timid and incompetent. After the autumn harvest, we need to arrange team leaders who are good at drills.
, train them well! Well, take care of their food when they are exercising!... Otherwise, not to mention the vicious Shantar people, even the tribe soldiers of the Ezo people can defeat them all!..."
"Yes! The master of the house is generous!..."
After being appointed as the official Uizaki Mori, he bowed and bowed to his elder, Morino Kiyoshi, before turning around and running out of the main building. Morino Kiyoshi sat in the pavilion, poured a cup of tea for Mitsuhiro Uizaki with his own hands, and said with a smile.
"Guangguang, you accept these four hundred fleeing subjects and let them settle in the northern country to avoid the continuous war in Kinki... It is a great merit in front of the compassionate Buddha!"
"Haha! Uncle, the fields in Ezo are barren. Even after a year of hard work, we can't harvest much rice. It is incomparable with the fertile land in Kinki. These people come here to cultivate and don't scold me in their hearts. It is already a mercy of the Buddha.
!…”
"Mitsuhiro, you don't know this... Although Kinki is fertile, the burden of taxes and the burden on farmers is far greater than that of the North! Kinki is directly under the shogunate, and it has six public and four civilians.
As usual, there are extra offerings to temples and the daily needs of nobles; there are also exploitations by local people, extortion by ronin warriors, and plundering by rogue soldiers. The reason why these villagers fled is because they really can't survive! What old people along the way?
The weak starved to death, the young and strong fled, not to mention the massacre of the samurai's broken troops... Alas!..."
Speaking of the tragic situation of the Kinki Rebellion, Morino Kiyoshi shook his head and showed his unbearable expression. He paused for a moment before continuing.
"These villagers were carefully rescued and gathered by the monks of my Tendai sect. After two months of rescue, they were handed over to me and boarded the fleet coming to Ezo from the north! ... To be honest, the abbot of the temple and the monks
The official was originally unwilling to help the refugees. However, my master expressed the mercy of the Buddha, and disciples of the Kaga Ichigo sect came to gather the refugees and go north to Echizen... All the sects and temples were shocked by this, and then they sent monks to take the initiative to intercept and comfort them.
!”
"And if you can settle it properly here, all the transportation costs along the way will be paid for by our sect! This is a kind act recognized by the eminent monks of the Miao Court. It will help the reputation of your family, and even benefit the reputation of the Nobhiro family during his lifetime.
My biggest wish... In the future, if there is another turmoil in Kyoto, more people from the territory will come... It is better to send them to the Ezo land to cultivate and strengthen the power of the Oyizaki clan than to let them fall into the hands of the always evil sect!...
"
"Ah? Kaga Issei Sect?...Uncle, are you talking about the Pure Land Shin Sect? I heard that Master Qingluan is also from the Tiantai Sect. And the Pure Land Shinsect is also a branch of the Tiantai Sect, why is it called the Issei Sect..."
“Don’t say that!…”
Morino Qing interrupted the insult with a shout. Then, he looked around and saw that there was no one around, and then smiled bitterly.
"Buddha bless you! Guangguang, please don't say such offensive words in front of all major orthodox monks in the future... Master Qingluan, um, Master Jianzhen, has indeed practiced under my Tiantai Sect for more than twenty years.
...But after he betrayed the sect and went to the Pure Land, he had already severed all ties with our Tiantai Sect!..."
"And the 'Pure Land Original Vow Dharma' preached by Master Jian Zhen, in our sect's view, is also an out-and-out Buddhist heretic. It is almost like a taboo and must not be mentioned in our sect!..."
"This Vow Dharma has three major evil theories that can destroy the Buddha... One is to reverse the teachings and replace the true Dharma with evil ones... The second is to instigate evil and break many precepts of the true Dharma... The third is to kill dissidents and kill all the sects of the true Dharma...
Practicing this method is practicing the method of destroying the Buddha, and you will surely suffer the consequences of falling into the Avici Hell for a long time!…”
Morino Kiyoshi talked about "The Debate between Righteous Dharma and Evil Dharma", and saw Mitsuhiro Oyezaki's face blank and uninterested, so he secretly sighed and said nothing. As long as he recited the "mantra" repeatedly, he could "Buddha save and pass away."
Compared with the "Pure Land" Yixiang Sect, their "authentic Buddhism" is really unattractive!
Especially for the suffering people at the bottom and the sword-wielding samurai at the middle and lower levels, they simply do not have the wisdom, money and energy to "practice the righteous Dharma", so there is no possibility of transcendence and salvation. However, the patriarchal method of "simple operation and boundless effectiveness"
The door becomes their only way out after death, and even their only hope during life!…
"Hey! Mitsuhiro, six years ago, after the Ichiki sect launched the Ichikui and captured the Kaga Kingdom... the power of the Ichiki sect really established a foothold in Kinki and created the so-called 'Kaga Buddhist Kingdom'... eminent monks from various sects
He was quite worried and kept making suggestions to the senior officials of the shogunate. The ninth shogun Ashikaga Yoshinaga once planned to conquer Kaga, and almost led his troops to do so! The tenth shogun Ashikaga Yoshika also had the same idea...but the situation in the shogunate changed.
, after four generations of generals were replaced, the proposal to attack Yixiang Zong became a mirror image, and had no choice but to give up..."
"Right now, the Ichigo clan has become more and more powerful. They have expelled the Kaga guardians and the famous samurai families, and suppressed the people of the country. They have established their own temples and sects, managed the place themselves, and managed the believers in each village! ... They have implemented the 'people's rule'
Hold on to it, establish a village community, deprive the Wu family of the taxes collected, and assign it to a single sect for the believers' own use... It is really too attractive to the people from all over the country!..."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Ah! They actually expelled the noble martial arts family, used temples to directly rule the territory, and used evil words to confuse the people's hearts?! This... this is too evil! Sure enough,
They are heretics attached to the Buddha, no, they are heretics possessed by demons!…”
After hearing the actions of the Ichibuki clan, Mitsuhiro Uyizaki was shocked and immediately labeled the original "Jōdo Shinshu" in his mind as a "devil heretic". In such a "big right and wrong" position, the samurai family, as the ruling class, decided to
It is impossible to violate one's own ass, unless one also becomes an "evil heretic"!
In fact, whether it is the "Jodo Shinshu" or the "Christian Kirikidan" that was introduced later...this kind of armed religious group that directly contacts the peasants at the bottom and unites the loose people together is naturally the most dangerous enemy of the Wakoku Samurai family.
, will trigger one incident after another!
In this era, although the country's area was only more than 300,000 square kilometers, which was only one-fifth of the 1.8 million square kilometers in Central America, its population of more than 11 million was almost the same as that of other countries except the Maya.
Central America is comparable, and there are no high-yielding American crops. The hardship of the people is evident!
With such a large population, the feudal iron kingdom, and the natural location of an island, it is naturally impossible to be conquered by external forces. Even the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty, which was powerful for a while, was helpless. But such a dense population also means that peace and harmony are inevitable.
The contradiction between man and land within the country is always at its peak before a volcanic eruption.
In the context of a large population and a small area, the combined oppression of the peasants at the bottom by the martial arts families and traditional temples of the Republic of China was too severe! The taxes and labor they demanded were unimaginable by both the Ming and North Korea. So much so that "
"Four publics and six citizens" are rare virtues. This makes the society of the Republic of China like a pile of flammable firewood. Once ignited by sparks, it may become a prairie fire!
Today, history flows to a new river, and everything is changing silently. The "Ichigo Sect" is based in Kinki, and as it grows stronger, it attracts the fear of the guardians of various countries. The "Kieshitan" of the Nanman is also about to arrive, and the Portuguese's pioneer fleet
, is sailing to India, spreading "the glory of God" along the way...
In the north of Ezo, on the not-so-distant Katai Island, the "hummingbird god" of the Northern Barbarians has been engraved on the foreheads of Japanese captives and farmers, and has gradually taken root in the hearts of these believers.
The priests of the main god are also full of enthusiasm, from Kamchatka to Mausili Island, looking for the fertile ground of faith in the south, waiting for the moment when the hummingbirds fly to the north!
