Wu Dong was quite speechless. He didn't expect there were so many idle people.
But since someone even uses the method of directly shouting, then he can be merciful and 'comply with public opinion'.
Soon, the rumors that disappeared for almost a winter were spread again in the hinterland of the Central Plains.
This time, it was Buddhism that was targeted again...
The rumors Wu Dong released were not aimed at a certain person or group this time, but directly aimed at martial arts.
As the current leader of the Baidao Alliance, Buddhism is inevitably subject to criticism.
Wu Dong bluntly stated that although the current mainstream martial arts is mainly based on internal strength and true energy, it actually pays great attention to the cultivation of the spiritual realm.
Buddhism has a huge advantage in this regard.
This is the main reason why there are so many first-class masters in Buddhism, and there are also many super-first-class masters.
But Buddhism also has a problem, that is, Hu Feng is too strong.
Buddhism itself is not a Central Plains sect and came in during the most chaotic period of the Northern and Southern Dynasties.
As each family of aliens established a country, Buddhism, which was strongly influenced by Hu Feng, received strong support. Buddhism quickly rose and became the most impressive sect in the entire Central Plains.
In this process, although he experienced the "Two Martial Arts to Destroy the Buddha", it didn't take long to fully recover and his power grew to a higher level.
Here, the rumor focuses on the background and reasons of the ‘Two Martial Arts to Destroy the Buddha’, as well as the final fate of the two Martial Emperors.
As expected, the rumors caused an uproar as soon as they came out.
Now, even some powerful children from aristocratic families who knew the inside story couldn't help but participate in the heated discussion.
"Buddhism is really powerful. It actually forced two accomplished emperors to compete with them for population, finances and taxes!"
"Hey, don't think about it. If everyone becomes a monk, who else can the court and the government turn to to collect taxes?"
"Without money, the imperial court will collapse completely!"
"If the imperial court collapses, how can the emperor survive?"
"It's a pity that these two emperors who dared to destroy the Buddha still died inexplicably, and their end was not very good either?"
"Especially the one at the back. If he hadn't destroyed the Buddha and boosted the national power of the previous dynasty, it would not have been so easy for Emperor Wen to institute the 'Kaihuang Rule'!"
"Why didn't you tell me? If that man hadn't died early, Emperor Wen would have had no chance of becoming emperor, and the Sui Dynasty would have ceased to exist!"
"Well, I really want to remember that Emperor Wen seemed to have grown up in a Buddhist temple when he was a child?"
"Si, if you didn't remind me, I almost forgot about this. Emperor Wen finally destroyed the previous dynasty. Is there still such a cause and effect?"
"..."
This wave of rumors shocked the top Buddhist leaders.
If certain things are confirmed by public opinion, how can Buddhism gain the trust of the royal family in the future?
Damn the little guy behind the scenes!
As a representative of Buddhism, Fan Qinghui, the master of Cihang Jingzhai Zhai, gritted his teeth with hatred.
She had just lived a peaceful life in the winter, but in the early spring, Xiao Xiao, who was hiding behind the scenes, did something like this again, which was simply disgusting.
However, if you want such explosive rumors to disappear, even if Buddhism tries its best, you can't do it.
At this time, Yang Xuangan, the leader of the Longyou military aristocratic group, a descendant of Chu Gong Yang Su and the Minister of Rites, rebelled.
It caused a sensation all over the world and temporarily suppressed the rumors about Buddhism.
Although Yang Xuangan's rebellion had been anticipated by some major forces, no one expected that it would be this man who was promoted by the Longyou military aristocracy.
That was Yang Xuangan, a direct descendant of Yang Su and one of the banner-bearers of the Longyou military aristocracy.
His reputation is much greater than that of Dugu Sheng or Yu Wenji.
It should be said that compared to the Yang family, one of the representative families of the Longyou military aristocratic group, the so-called four powerful families are nothing.
But, isn’t it too big a deal to push out Yang Xuangan, the man who carries the banner?
But no matter what, Yang Xuangan's rebellion really shocked the whole world.
The main thing is that Yang Xuangan is one of the representatives of the Longyou military aristocratic group, and Yang Guang and this person actually come from different branches of the same family.
The most important thing is that Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, Yang Jian, was able to overthrow the previous dynasty and establish the Great Sui Dynasty, mainly because he had the support of the Longyou military aristocratic group.
In other words, the biggest support for Yang Guang to secure his throne as emperor was actually the Longyou military aristocracy.
But now it seems that the two families have parted ways.
What this means, many smart people reacted immediately.
The Great Sui Dynasty is about to change!
Next, let’s see how Yang Guang responds to this crisis.
If the situation is handled well, everything will be easy. Although Yang Guang's position as emperor has been challenged, it will not be in a shaky situation.
But if Yang Guang handles it improperly, there will be nothing more to say. Get ready to start a new world hegemony mode.
These were originally the secret thoughts of some big guys.
However, Wu Dong, who was hiding behind the scenes, directly spread the secrets inside through rumors, regardless of whether these were the tacit understanding of the big bosses.
At this moment, the whole world was shaken!
Everyone who heard the rumors, whether they were high-ranking officials or ordinary people, or middle- and low-level generals and officials, were all shocked.
They never expected that the Sui Dynasty had just experienced the founding of the emperor, and in the blink of an eye, it was about to change dynasties.
This change is too rapid and too sudden, right?
I originally wanted to question the content of the rumors, but the rumors released by Wu Dong were well-founded and basically hit the point.
Anyone who knows a little bit about the situation in Sui Dynasty will know that what he said is true.
But this makes people even more uneasy.
"Do you think the contents in the rumors are true?"
"I guess we're close, but I didn't expect Yang Guang to be so capable. The Great Sui Dynasty is about to reach a critical moment of life and death!"
"It's not such an exaggeration, isn't it? The Sui Dynasty is so powerful, and Yang Guang still has a million troops in his hands. How can it be possible that it will be over after all?"
"Isn't it very clear in the rumors that Yang Guang had a falling out with the Longyou military aristocracy and lost his greatest support?"
"And Shan, the Eastern gentry, have never been in the same pot as the Kansai military nobles!"
"Yang Guang is not relying on both sides at this time, which is the most dangerous time!"
"Of course, as the rumors say, Emperor Wen left a rich legacy to Yang Guang. As long as it is used properly, the crisis can still be resolved!"
"Just be afraid, Yang Guang is nothing more than an Adou who can't be supported. He doesn't look good on the outside. He messes up his position and position!"
"I'm afraid those big bosses of the Kansai Military Group are gnashing their teeth with hatred at this time. If Yang Guang hears the rumors, he won't be so easy to mess around with!"
These arguments are indeed very reasonable, but I can't stand Yang Guang's sincerity.
Not sure what happened, but after Yang Guang learned about Yang Xuangan's rebellion, he suddenly became panicked.
He simply ignored the dissuasion of the generals around him and insisted on leading the main force of the Sui army back to the pass to put down the rebellion as soon as possible.
As a result, the Sui army, which had just started fighting the Goguryeo army, retreated in a hurry without caring about others, resulting in another man-made collapse.
The Goguryeo army defeated the main force of the Sui army of millions with just a little effort.
When this result spread back to the Central Plains, the whole world was stunned.
Is Yang Guang out of his mind?
The rumors outside were so fast, didn't he hear them at all?
Even though he was given such an obvious reminder, he only had to give it a direct warning, but the result was the tragic collapse of millions of Sui troops.
Most of the officers and soldiers of the Sui army did not die in the fighting with the Goguryeo people, but were tortured to death by starvation or trampled to death.
Although Yang Guang still had about 300,000 close Sui troops in his hands, everyone was completely disappointed with him.
When Wu Dong heard the news, he immediately released the rumor.
He directly denounced Yang Guang as a useless snack. It seemed that the so-called victory over Chen was due to Yang Su and other generals, and Yang Guang took advantage of it in vain.
Do you really think that the officers and soldiers of the Sui army are just big cabbage, and they can summon more numbers at will?
The abuse of people's power reached such a crazy level that even the First Emperor could not compare to it.
Needless to say, Yang Guang had destroyed the last hope of the Sui Dynasty.
Unless he abdicates immediately and replaces himself with a wise and powerful leader, it will only be a matter of time before the Sui Dynasty is over.
The possibility of this is considered extremely slim.
Next, it’s time for the performance of the four great clans. If we say the most promising to replace the Sui Dynasty, they are these four.
Of course, they have to survive Yang Guang's possible crazy suppression.
"Bastard!" "Damn it!" "Son of a bitch!" "Crazy guy!"
This was the first reaction of the heads of the four powerful families after hearing the rumors.
But later on, they simply acted as if they had never heard of it and did whatever they should do. Of course, their private defenses deepened by several levels.
I don't know what happened, but just when the whole world was in turmoil because of Yang Guang's tricks, someone secretly imitated Wu Dong's actions and spread a very explosive rumor.
The content of the rumor is very simple. When Yang Guang commanded millions of Sui troops to besiege Goguryeo, many masters of the Baidao led by Cihang Jingzhai quietly moved out to frighten away the Yinkui faction who were secretly protecting Yang Guang.
.
When Wu Dong heard the news, he immediately realized what was going on and had to express his admiration for Buddhism's methods.
No wonder Yang Guang panicked at the critical moment. It turned out that the most capable guard around him was forced away, his own safety could not be guaranteed, and he may have been directly threatened by the strong master of Goguryeo, so he made that look.
A seemingly absurd decision.
Tsk, I don’t know if that’s the case. If that’s the case, Wu Dong would have to give Buddhism some eye drops. Didn’t he stretch his hand a little too long to get such a vicious blow?
