The ancestor nodded and said: "Yes, I know these things. You want to influence the Later Qin through your contact with Kumarajiva. This is something you have been planning for many years. In the past, the north
My predecessor, Murong Chui in black robe, was in charge of all the affairs, but you obviously
I don’t want to give him exclusive rights to things in the north, but the time you spend in the north is a bit too much, and I don’t think there is much need to cooperate with Buddhism. They are a foreign religion, and there are
Our own gods, in the final analysis, are in conflict with us."
Doupeng sighed: "Disciple knows this very well, but just like the barbarians, sometimes they have to use help. For the Shen League's grand plan, sometimes they have to use it. Buddhists come to the Central Plains to preach, and they also want to use it.
Pass on their theory, but except for the Hu regime, no real Han regime will advocate this vigorously. Therefore, the disciples only use it for a while, just like the art of spreading smoke thousands of miles. Without this thing
, we can’t talk here now.”
The black robe said coldly: "I would like to advise Venerable Doupeng that the power of the Divine Alliance runs through ancient and modern times and does not need to borrow any external force. Just like you used to want to borrow Liu Yu's power to achieve your goals, but now you find that you are playing with it.
Take it off, Liu Yu has completely become our most terrifying enemy, whether it is Buddhism or the Later Qin Dynasty, it is not something you can control. The ancestor is here today. I think you need to change your mind. Don't rely on it.
Buddhism, or the power of the Later Qin Dynasty made it possible."
Doupeng said solemnly: "Don't you still rely on Huiyuan to fight against Liu Yu? You can rely on a monk to be the future public intellectual and continue to ruin Liu Yu's reputation. Why can't I cooperate with Buddhism?"
Heipao laughed loudly: "I just want Huiyuan and Liu Yu's policies to be enemies. I don't really expect Buddhism to achieve anything. It's you, Venerable Doupeng, who provoked the war between Hou Qin and Hu Xia.
If Buddhism is allowed to expand wildly in the north and Guanzhong, won't we be afraid that the people in Guanzhong will only believe in Buddha and not gods?"
Doupeng said coldly: "Both Buddhism and the Hu people's regime are destined to be driven out of the Central Plains sooner or later. Why are you anxious? Now we don't rely on external forces, just ourselves. Even our ancestors are not sure to defeat Liu Yu.
We must use all possible forces to fight Liu Yu, how can we stick to the old rules?"
The ancestor waved his hand and said: "Okay, there is no need to argue. There is no big problem with Venerable Doupeng's layout in the north, but you can't put too much thought on Hou Qin. Now we are dealing with Liu Yu.
There are still many points that can be used. Monk Huiyuan is a routine, and from Liu Yu's side
The biggest blow to him is to attack someone he loves, someone he loves. Wu Yinzhi is actually a target that he can attack. He is one of the few people from aristocratic families that Liu Yu respects and trusts. But as you said just now, he
In fact, it also has its own purpose, which is not so pure and upright."
Doupeng nodded and said: "Yes, in the final analysis, Wu Yinzhi still has to serve the interests of his Wu family. He just fought for a clear name. In the long run, the competition between aristocratic families still depends on himself.
With reputation in the world, your descendants will benefit. The reason why Wu Yinzhi is willing to come back to Lingnan this time is not for revenge.
, but to re-establish the reputation that was damaged by the Tianshi Dao raid last time. The anti-corruption action gave him a reputation as an upright official, but the infamy of losing his territory and becoming a prisoner is also to be considered.
There is no way to wash away the snow. Wherever you fail, you have to stand up. This is the opportunity Liu Yu gave him and what he was asked to do in Guangzhou."
The ancestor frowned: "Although it is a big idea to let the Beifu army fight back from the sea, Guangzhou is empty after all. As long as the sea ships can arrive smoothly, then there is a big chance of winning it. Moreover, this is purely military. Actions can be carried out by generals like Sun Chu, why must it be done by Wu Yinzhi?"
The black robe said seriously: "Because Wu Yinzhi has a reputation of being honest in Guangzhou and is also supported by many barbarian tribes. With the help of the generals of the Beifu Army, such as Sun Chu and Shen Tianzi, he can indeed win Guangzhou militarily, but these people , and their men, without the supervision of Liu Yu himself, are very likely to rob and massacre wantonly in Guangzhou in the name of hunting down Tianshi Dao party members, or in order to cover up the robbery, massacre Guangzhou. Soldiers and civilians, although this may be successful militarily, it will lose the hearts of Lingnan people."
Doupeng nodded and said: "The black-robed venerable is right. The current Beifu Army, actually out of Liu Yu's sight, has become an army that has habitually benefited from wars, including pacifying the South." Yanhe's previous Western expeditions to destroy Huan all involved large-scale plundering. After the war, what they wanted was real benefits, otherwise who would have the motivation to fight? Especially when these people did not regard themselves as In a place that has been a long-term base, after the battle, in the name of punishing the enemy troops and hunting down the remnants of the enemy, they looted wantonly, so that they could be worthy of the blood and sweat they shed. This is due to human nature, and Liu Yu could not stop it."
The ancestor said coldly: "So, Liu Yu actually couldn't trust his generals, so he sent Wu Yinqian, who had a reputation for integrity. I got it before he came, and he would not massacre Tianshi Dao disciples in Guangzhou. His family members, in order to avenge the past, made Wu Yinzhi the governor of Guangzhou, and also to conquer the hearts of the people in Lingnan, so that there will be long-term peace and stability here, and there will be no need for the court to invest military and financial resources to suppress it, right?"
The black robe nodded: "That should be it, but Liu Yu didn't expect that Wu Yinzhi had secretly cooperated with Liu Tingyun before, and many of the officials Wu Yinzhi brought this time were also children of the aristocratic families who were captured with him back then. Well, after these people come back, they will continue to control the overseas trade that they once had, and then retain the rare treasures and precious medicinal materials from Southeast Asia. In fact, even some of the miraculous medicines that our Tiandao Alliance needs are These overseas medicinal materials are indispensable."
The ancestor nodded: "Venerable Doupeng, you will be responsible for these overseas medicinal materials. After Liu Tingyun's death, you still have to find a reliable candidate to complete these things. However, you have to learn from the past. The lesson is, don’t trust an apostle easily, entrust everything to him and just leave it alone.”
Doupeng smiled slightly: "Disciple, I will follow the teachings of my ancestors. However, the affairs here in Guangzhou, at least as for Monk Huiyuan, are being handled by the black-robed Venerable. Do you think it is possible to accept Monk Huiyuan as my disciple?" How about an apostle of our Divine Alliance, and then he has full authority to handle medicinal materials and is specifically responsible for Lingnan?" (End of Chapter)
