Chapter 278 What is the True Buddha

The news that Luosi City was broken and Ali Bone was captured alive soon spread like the wind on the Tubo Plateau. At this time, Song Qing and Zhu Wu had led a large army to surround the border Tubo Legion.

After hearing the news that Luoxi City was occupied by Liangshan's army and the leader was captured alive, everyone lost their fighting spirit. Two days after being besieged, under the powerful deterrence of Liangshan artillery, they finally chose to surrender.

On the other hand, the Motu garrison, who tried to resist, finally put down its weapons and surrendered to Liangshan.

It is really unexpected that the Battle of Tibet will end in this way.

This victory can be said to be inseparable from Song Qing's strategy, Liang Shan's bravery, sharp firearms, and finally Yue Fei's thousands of miles of attack.

The victory on the battlefield does not mean that the occupation of Tubo has been completed, and there is still a lot of detailed work that has not been completed!

First of all, it is the resettlement problem of hundreds of thousands of prisoners, all of which make them unarmed and return to the field. It is unrealistic and all of them are collected. Song Qing does not have such a big appetite.

And another urgent thing to solve is the national and religious problem. If Zhuo Puba was alive, it might be much simpler, or if he died elsewhere, Song Qing would not scratch his head like this.

Before Liangshan, Tibet had always practiced slavery. Some nobles, tribal leaders, and even many living Buddhas had a group of slaves. In their view, this is perfectly normal, but under the Liangshan regime, this can never be allowed.

The existence of slavery is bound to seriously restrict the development of society, but this system has been implemented in Tubo for thousands of years. If it is broken, it is easy to cause a collective rebound of Tubo nobles, so we must treat this problem carefully.

Under the military power of Liangshan, some living Buddhas have rushed to Liangshan Camp one after another.

After Song Qing first ordered people to settle them, he did not meet them immediately, but pulled Zhu Wu to study how to govern Tibet.

The area of Tibet is several times that of Xixia, and it did not belong to the Central Plains Dynasty in the Han Dynasty, so it is even more difficult to govern, and there must be a talented person with both wisdom and courage.

In fact, Zhu Wu is the most favorite of Song Qing, but Xiliang is equally important. It is an important channel connecting the Western Regions and Mongolia. If there is no Zhu Wu, how can Song Qing be assured?

After thinking about it, Song Qing decided to talk to Zhu Wu first.

It seems that he had already guessed why Song Qing was upset, so after a few gossips, Zhu Wu smiled and said, "Who is Chitose is worried about to guard Tubo?"

Song Qing couldn't help sighing and said, "My brother still knows me!" Throughout my Liangshan brothers, they are brave, but when it comes to governing the place, I really can't think of anyone else except my brother. Wu Yong's brother is also a candidate for a while, but he is too old. He has not been in good health in the past two years, so I really don't know who to send."

Zhu Wu was moved, but his face did not show it. He hesitated for a moment and said, "I have a choice, but I don't know if Chitose dares to use it?"

Song Qing couldn't help laughing and said, "It must be unusual to be respected by you. Why don't I dare to use it? Say it! Who is he?"

"Zhang Shuye"

Is it him? This guy is a loyalist of the Song Dynasty. How could Zhu Wu recommend him to himself?

Facing Song Qing's doubtful eyes, Zhu Wu said: "Zhang Shuye is a great talent. I dealt with him when I was in Liang Shan. I knew the concerns of a thousand years old, but at this time, at that time, as long as I am a little knowledgeable, I can see Zhao Song's end, and this end can be said to be entirely their own fault. I, Liangshan, just took advantage of the situation."

"I have learned from people that he has stayed in Dengzhou over the years and looks very leisurely, but he is also always paying attention to the situation. Which one is not beneficial to the country and the people and the prestige of the Han Dynasty? His impression of Chitose has long changed."

"As Chitose said, my brother Liang Shan killed the enemy on the battlefield, and each of them is not ambiguous, but it is really much worse to govern the place, so I dared to recommend Zhang Shuye to serve in Tubo, supplemented by a general, so that the military power is always in the hands of Chitose, and it is useless even if he has an idea."

Zhu Wu's words can be said to be selfless. The area of Tibet is almost as large as the Central Plains, and as long as he opens his mouth, Song Qing will definitely hand over such a large area to his management, but he recommended others, and he is also a person who used to be the enemy of Liangshan.

People who talk about loyalty every day are not really loyal, but Zhu Wu proved his loyalty to Song Qing with his practical actions.

When it comes to the feelings of Song Qing and Zhu Wu, some words don't need to be said.

Song Qing pondered for a moment and finally nodded and said, "Wen has Zhang Shuye, the general will send Qin Ming here!"

"Chitose is wise, but I don't know how Chitose is going to deal with these Tubo soldiers?"

"I just thought about it. With Motu's Tubo army here, no less than 300,000, if all of them are abolished, it is bound to form a new hidden danger, so I plan to abolish the old and weak among them and then disperse them to the subordinates of Yue Fei, Lin Chong and Han Shizhong. At the same time, 100,000 troops were deployed from Yue Fei and Guan Sheng's troops and stationed in the Luos area.

"Of course, this is just a stopgap measure. After we fully stand in Tubo, we can recruit new soldiers in the next generation of Tubo and rotate with soldiers on the three sides. In this way, I believe that within ten years, we can completely erase the shadow of the Tubo army."

In fact, Song Qing did not tell Zhu Wu about his hidden worries about slavery. He planned to talk to Zhang Shuye and listen to Zhang Shuye's thoughts after he arrived.

Luoxi City is Lhasa in later generations. If it weren't for his son, Song Qingzhen would have wanted to see the Potala Palace! He hasn't been there in later generations.

Because Yue Fei captured Ali's bones, his attempt to use Song Qing's hand to get rid of Zhuo Puba's conspiracy was finally made public.

After knowing the truth of the matter, more living Buddhas rushed to Song Qing's camp. There was nothing else. They all knew that the prince spoiled the Buddha, so they all wanted to get the greatest benefit from Song Qing.

Song Qing did not disappoint them and reiterated his purpose of respecting their beliefs and not interfering in their Buddhist affairs. In addition, Song Qing also promised to build a Buddhist temple in the old land of Tubo and Luoyang would be directly responsible for supporting them.

Hearing the news, the living Buddhas were all overjoyed, but soon they couldn't laugh, because the knife in Song Qing's hand was also raised.

Song Qing asked them not to interfere in local affairs, and not to raise serfs. Third, the people can believe in Buddhism, but they can't be monks casually. The last thing is to release the existing serfs and restore their identity as ordinary people. The food, clothing, housing and transportation of these serfs are temporarily provided by the government.

After these articles were announced, all the Buddhas were dumbfounded. Isn't King Liang too cruel? Although he promised to support them by Luoyang, can he have a large number of slaves with himself, call around and be supported by believers?

A fat monk with a red face immediately stood up against it.

bowed and said, "Thousand years old's words are bad. The believers who spoil Buddha and believe in Buddha are voluntary, and the Buddha sect is vast, and the world is our Buddha disciples. How can we refuse them out of the door? Please also take back your life"

Song Qing listened to him with a smile, and then said, "What is the true Buddha? Why does the master believe in Buddhism?

Many Tubo people were born with the wish of spoiling Buddha in front of the Buddha statue until they grew up and officially became Buddhist believers.

In the hearts of Tubo, all this is normal, but it is natural. No one has ever asked them that.

So Song Qing's words stopped the fat monk, opened his mouth, and said for a long time, "It is the true meaning of my Buddha to save the world from the sea of suffering and make all sentient beings equal. My teacher has also been working in this direction. What's wrong?"

"I have always believed that Buddha's grand wish is to save the world, save the world from suffering, and finally achieve the equality of all sentient beings, but does the master think that all sentient beings are really equal? Are the slaves in your temple also sent by the Buddha to practice?

"this,"

If you talk about Buddhist scriptures and Zen machines, the ten Song Qing are not the opponents of the great monks, but Song Qing's sword is biased. From the perspective of Ling, he stopped the great monk at once.

"I know that there is a master who never lives in famous ancient temples, never speaks to people, and never asks for charity, but he has countless disciples. Do you know why?"

"The master said that the Buddhist scriptures are annotated by Buddha and Bodhisattva, and more notes will be separated. If others talk about it, isn't it better for idiots to talk about dreams? The master also said that there are many factors in the world that can disturb his cultivation. How can he become a Buddha if he is not plowed, eats without ploughing, and clothes are only waiting for others to supply them?

This story was actually heard by Song Qing, not temporarily holding Buddhism, and wanted to educate these great monks through this statement.

And if this story comes out of other people's mouths, these Buddhas have no patience to listen to it. But after Song Qing finished speaking, none of these monks spoke.

I don't agree with Song Qing's will, but I just can't think of any words to refute Song Qing. No one dares to say that he is a monk and studies Buddhism in order to be worshipped by thousands of people and recruit slaves to be supported.

Because once this spreads, his reputation is bound to plummet, and there is no need to pretend to be a living Buddha.

There was only so much ink in Song Qing's belly. Seeing that they were shocked, he immediately began to finish.

said earnestly, "Masters, I have just said that I will build a temple for you, and all the offerings will be undertaken by me. Isn't it good that you just need to study Buddhism at ease? Why do you have to pay attention to those common affairs?

paused and said, "In the future, Tubo will only be a title of a nation, and will no longer exist as a country. I will soon send officials to the cities of Luo. I am here to promise you that the people of the Han and Tu ethnic groups will be treated equally and will never deviate, but if someone deliberately disobeys my order and destroys it. The peace between Han and Tu, the knife in my hand will never agree."

Although Song Qing's last sentence was slow, it was also loud and murderous.
