When the Zhang Jiao brothers launched the Yellow Turbans uprising, there were many Taiping Taoists in Yangzhou. After the defeat of the Yellow Turbans, many people in Jiangdong still believed in Taoism, and many people continued their missionary plans. These Taoist leaders
Among them, the most famous one is a Taoist named Yu Ji.
Yu Ji was originally from Langya. Later, when the world was in chaos or for other reasons, he came to Jiangdong to avoid disaster. He claimed to have obtained more than a hundred sacred books in the spring, built a monastery in Kuaiji, Wu County, and burned incense and recited Taoism every day.
He uses magic to make talisman water to treat people's illnesses. There are many of his followers here.
But how could a mere Jiangdong Yu Ji be the opponent of the fighting priests who were killed in such a ghost place in the Western Regions? These fanatical or pretending to be fanatical priests of the Truth Cult helped Zhang Lu train his troops in Hanzhong, and even went into battle to kill them in person.
Human.
While helping Sun Ce cast cannons, the war priests built temples to worship the northern god Gouchen. The so-called temple meant enclosing a large piece of land and building a strong cathedral with bricks and low-quality cement, with stables surrounding it.
, canteens, dormitories, toilets and other buildings, and then erect courtyard walls around them.
That's right, the so-called temple is actually a military camp. Sun Ce allowed these people to mess with him at first. After half a year, the temple was basically completed and he ran to take a look. Damn it, are you planning to rebel?
Unable to bear it, Sun Bofu called the battle priests over and asked, "What do you want to do?"
The priests were puzzled and explained that when they were in the Western Regions, their temples and churches looked like this. These people also enthusiastically introduced the main building to Sun Ce, which was the temple enshrining the statue of the Emperor of Heaven.
"Please see, Mr. Sun, there are artillery emplacements here. As long as we deploy a few artillery pieces above, there is no need to worry even if ten times the number of enemies come to attack." The leader of the priest said proudly: "In
In the Western Region, we once blocked the attack of more than 2,000 barbarians with a hundred men!"
Sun Ce: ".........."
Okay, you have the guts!
Most of these truth pastors who were exiled to the Western Regions and remained unrepentant were stinky and hard-core fanatics. They were accustomed to being barbaric in the Western Regions. After coming to Jiangdong, their methods of preaching were also unusual, like Yu Ji's burning talismans.
The method of transforming water into treating people's diseases is completely different.
Priests carrying hammers often grab a heretic, slap him with a big ear-scratcher, and then shout: "Repent!"
Pagans are easier to transform than passers-by. This is the conclusion reached by the priests after fighting in the Western Regions for three or four years. As long as they can show stronger fighting power and more powerful miracles, pagans can be transformed very quickly.
It is said that most of the priests know some medical methods and know the concept of bacterial transmission. The treatment of diseases and injuries is much better than the methods of Taipingdao.
And more importantly, the pastors of the Truth Religion are indeed talented. Not only can they make cannons, but they can also help train troops, help collect taxes, help treat diseases and injuries, help transport grain and grass, plan fields, etc.
After having this group of people, Sun Ce suddenly found that he could manage the place more easily.
Sun Bofu fought as bravely as his father Sun Jian, but unlike Sun Jian, he kept licking Yuan Shu when he caught him. He wiped out countless noble families in Jiangdong, and Sun's rule in Jiangdong was almost
It copied the experience of Guanzhong, Liangzhou and other places, except that it did not implement strict land clearance and land inspection.
It's not that Sun Ce doesn't want to do this, but that he doesn't have enough talents to help him do these things. If you want to measure fields and count household registrations, you must at least be literate, and you must also know how to calculate area. It doesn't matter if you don't know how to use calculus.
Anyway, not many people know how to do this. It is enough to know how to calculate the area of a parallelogram.
But in the past, those intellectuals came from various powerful families and asked them to cut their own flesh. How is this possible? Most of them would take advantage of the opportunity to get their hands on them and make profits from it.
But now that there is a bunch of bastards from the Truth Sect, the little bully feels that things that could not be done before can now be picked up and done? Allocating fields to the soldiers under his command can strengthen cohesion and combat effectiveness, and also make management easier.
Normal people know this kind of thing.
But the battle priests rejected Sun Ce's proposal and said: "Shijun Sun used his missionary power to ask us to come over and cast cannons. Then we will only take care of missionary work and cannon casting. If there is anything else that needs help, we will also treat it as such."
The situation is helpful. But if we do this, wouldn’t we become the envoy’s subordinates? We are pastors of the Truth Religion, and we only worship our parents, ancestors and the Emperor of Heaven!”
After hearing this, Sun Ce drew his sword and said angrily: "On the territory of Jiangdong, do you dare to be so impudent?"
The pastors raised the hammer without hesitation and said loudly: "We have millions of believers behind us and the generals are backing us. Why don't we dare? Everything can't be justified. If you don't want to cooperate,
Just say it plainly!"
"..."
Sun Ce saw several guys on the opposite side begin to tie gunpowder bags to their bodies, and the hand holding the sword couldn't help but tremble. After buying the artillery, he had a good chance to test-fire it. He was there, so he didn't know what would happen if those gunpowder bags exploded.
What kind of scene? He cursed in his heart that these magicians were really crazy. After snorting, he put away his sword and said, "Then you can just make cannons!"
When the bully left angrily, a priest had already rushed to the street, grabbed a passerby and whipped him.
"Snapped!"
The stunned passerby said aggrievedly: "Why did you hit me?"
The pastor said aggressively: "Repent!"
"Ah? Is it wrong? I don't believe in Taiping Dao!"
"Oh, I'm sorry about that. Come, here is a book called "Primary School Mathematics" written by God Gouchen from the north. Go back and study it well, and in the future you will be able to enter the kingdom of God where flour and rice flow, and you can still have seventy years.
Two virgins..."
Obviously, this is someone who has had a lot of dealings with Semitic cults. Sun Ce, who was riding away on horseback, saw this scene and felt that these foreign guys might not be able to be used by me. The Yellow Turban Army in the Central Plains
After the collapse of the power, many people fled to Jingzhou and Jiangdong. Yangzhou was full of people who believed in Taiping Dao. There might be another major rebellion at some point.
Wouldn't it be great if these lunatics from the Truth Sect could confront the monsters from Taiping Dao?
Just do it when you think of it. Sun Ce is a young man in his twenties. He is used to acting vigorously and resolutely, so he quickly found an opportunity. One day, he was having a banquet with the generals upstairs. When he saw Yu Ji walking below, the pedestrians knelt down and worshiped.
Many of the generals who were upstairs also ran downstairs and knelt down in front of Yu Ji.
Sun Ce suppressed the anger in his heart, walked downstairs, and asked deliberately: "Are you Yu Ji?"
Yu Ji, who has a strong sense of immortality, nodded slightly and said leisurely: "That's right."
Sun Ce sneered and said: "I invited some people from the Truth Cult from the Western Regions. They believe in the Holy Emperor Gouchen of the North, but I don't know if you have heard of them?"
Yu Ji's expression changed slightly and he said, "Those are just delusional people. The Taoism is so exquisite, how can it be understood by ordinary people?"
"People say you are a living god, so do you dare to talk to people from the Truth Sect?"
Yu Ji stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Why don't you dare?"
So Sun Ce immediately sent someone to call over those fighting priests who were either endorsing or playing with strange things all day long. Hearing that Immortal Yu Ji was going to fight with others, the generals quickly cleared the second floor and invited
Yu Ji went up and sat down. The people around him also gathered around, wanting to watch the gods fight.
After a while, several battle priests wearing steel armor separated the crowd, rushed to the second floor, and shouted: "Who said he is a god?"
Sun Ce reached out and pointed at Yu Ji and said, "That's it!"
"That's you?"
The leader of the battle priest grabbed a book with his left hand and a hammer with his right hand. He glanced at Yu Ji a few times, shook his head and said, "With your body, do you dare to call yourself a god?"
He made a motion of bending his arms and said: "Do you see? This is the way to the truth. How can you pursue the avenue if you don't even have muscles?"
Yu Ji laughed loudly and said: "You just use brute force, how can you know where the real road is? Let me ask you, do you know the principle of transformation of heaven and man?"
The pastors shook their heads together, indicating that they had never heard of it.
Yu Ji asked several questions in a row, and the priests all shook their heads to express their ignorance. He laughed and said: "If you don't know these things, how can you dare to say that you are seeking the Tao? It is better to convert to my Tao of Taiping, or you will fall into the evil way.
"
The leader of the priests waited for him to finish laughing and said, "You asked us so many questions just now, now I will also ask you a few questions."
Yu Ji spit out one word, "Please."
"Do you know how photosynthesis works?"
"Ah?" Yu Ji was stunned and frowned: "I don't know what you are talking about."
"Then do you know how the matrix is converted?"
Yu Ji shook his head and said pitifully: "Poor, poor, you have fallen into evil ways and started talking nonsense."
The leader of the battle priest said angrily: "I don't know this, I don't know that, then you are at most a false god!"
He suddenly raised the hammer, rushed forward, and then smashed it down hard.
"puff!"
Yu Ji's head exploded like a ripe courgette from the Western Regions, with red and white splashing all over the floor. Everyone on the side was shocked when they saw this change. After a while, someone came.
After screaming, many people ran away or fainted on the spot.
"The Immortal Yu Ji was killed!"
"Oh my god, that man killed all the gods, how could this happen!"
"Oh no, killing the gods won't bring any trouble, right?"
"What a mouthful!" The leader of the priests raised his hammer and roared loudly: "You are such a god, why can't you stop my hammer?"
He was wearing heavy steel armor and holding a blood-stained hammer with an angry look. He was so majestic that he immediately shocked the generals and people who were about to make a move.
"When we were in the Western Region, we killed countless people who were fooling the public with their lies!"
The leader of the priests took a sip of water on the ground and roared: "Mortals, open your dog eyes and see clearly. This is the power given to us by the gods!"
Before he finished speaking, a "chichi" explosive package was thrown out. The fuse burned out quickly, an orange light flashed, and a deafening sound accompanied by air waves appeared in the open space. There was a thunderous sound on the ground, and there was a flash of orange light.
The anger of everyone on the ground was wiped out. Countless people's eyes turned back and forth between the large hole on the ground and the priest of the Truth Cult holding a hammer. A strange atmosphere instantly enveloped the ten-foot-wide space.
The leader of the priests raised his hammer and roared: "Mortals, you are facing a miracle!"
