The Rise of the Song People of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 646 Attack on Xiangyang
6 Chapter Four and Two Counterattacking Buddhism
"Your Majesty must be a prosperous and wise king, but Zuo has learned before that it is rumored that there are two great countries to the west of Yizhou, Guishang and Magadha. It is said that they are the origin of Buddhism. Zuo is willing to go to the two countries to investigate and wait for His Majesty to rule the world. Are you willing to fully support Taoism in the future?" Zuo Ci's words obviously surprised Yu Jidu.

"Guishuang, Magaduo?" Lu Heng narrowed his eyes and read the names of the two countries silently, and was also a little surprised by Zuo Ci's words. This full support is not as simple as it sounds.

Lu Heng didn't expect Zuo Ci to be the hawk of Taoism, and now the world is so big before it is unified, and he wants to lead Taoism to the birthplace of Buddhism.

This full support is not a simple verbal guarantee, but an endorsement for Taoism, which means that the behavior of Taoism will be supported by Da Song!

This can be big or small, if it is small, it is a diplomatic and political incident, and if it is big, it is not impossible to go to war with the two countries.

Don't look at so many online novels of the Three Kingdoms with the appearance of Guishuang and the Maurya Dynasty (that is, a dynasty in the Magadha period), they are more crooked, and no details are specified. In fact, the details of these two countries can be Said they didn't know at all.

Even Lu Heng checked the information a little superficially because of his status as a fan of the Three Kingdoms, and because some novels will describe Guishuang and the Maurya Dynasty.

Guishuang is actually the dynasty established by the Dayue clan, and the Dayue clan was the first nomadic family to compete with the Huns. In this era, Lu Heng of the Peacock Dynasty definitely remembered that it had been destroyed. As for the successor regime, Lu Heng did not investigate it at that time.

But for Buddhism, Lu Heng clearly remembers that it originated in the Three Kingdoms, and it was a system of corruption for a long period of time. Such a large-scale invasion of Taoism in the Three Kingdoms, and the possibility of the Great Song Dynasty, which has endorsed Taoism in this way, will go to war at that time very high.

Lu Heng was thinking about the pros and cons with the case in his hand. This matter seemed far away, and on the surface it was even more thankless, but it was not without benefits!

It's simple that the Taoist family has paid in advance, and Zhan Lu is the sincerity of the Taoist family. The identity of Zuo Ci is unknown to Lu Heng. At least Lu Heng knows that he will get the full support of the Taoist family.

Don't underestimate the Taoism of this era. Although it is not the Taoism of Huang Lao in the early Han Dynasty, the power of Taoism in this era is not trivial. Just look at the Yellow Turban Uprising to know a thing or two.

This is just Zhang Jiao. It can be said that the old immortal Nanhua has no end. You must know that many characters in this world exist in the comprehensive world. Although there is no such thing as magic, the influence of Taoism is not trivial.

"Yes, but I want the full support of Taoism, what I want is controllable Taoism, and the power of Taoism! Zuo Ci and Yu Ji believe that you are all smart people who understand what I mean." Lu Heng spoke after calculating the pros and cons , I have done so much besides attacking Buddhism in an all-round way, it is to control religion.

If you don’t know the specific power of Taoism, how can you control it lurking among the people?

Therefore, Lu Heng needs to know how much energy Taoism still has, whether it can be used for himself, bound on his own boat, and at the same time remove the factors of instability. Of course, it is what Lu Heng most hopes to see if the spearheads can be aligned with the outside world.

"Your Majesty's famous name, Taoism will become a sharp weapon in His Majesty's hands just like Zhanlu!" Zuo Ci bowed, and Yu Ji bowed respectfully at the side and then stepped back.

Let’s put the matter of Taoism aside for now. At the same time, after Lu Heng’s identity change, in order to unify the world, he sent envoys to several small forces such as Gongsun Kang in Liaodong, Zhang Yan and Zhang Baiqi in Bingzhou, Liu Biao and Sun Quan in Jingzhou, Zhang Xiu and Ma in Xiliang. Teng, Liu Zhang of Yizhou, but did not send envoys to Cao Cao and Tian Hu.

Lu Heng thought that Cao Cao would not give up easily, otherwise he would not be Cao Cao. As for Tian Hu, Lu Heng didn't think this bandit had self-knowledge.

The obvious meaning is that Lu Heng wants to test these forces through diplomatic negotiations, and it is best to make the other side surrender through diplomatic and political means.

When the news that Lu Heng proclaimed himself emperor and established the Song Dynasty spread throughout the world, all the remaining princes had mixed reactions. Although precautions had been taken when Lu Heng deposed the young emperor, they were still shocked.

Some chose to join the Song Dynasty directly. For example, Zhang Yan of Bingzhou completely chose to break with Zhang Baiqi, and contacted Zongze, the prefect of Youzhou, to move the old and young men of the Black Mountain Army under his command to Youzhou.

Zhang Yan even expressed her willingness to control the territory and accept management by officials appointed by Lu Heng, and hoisted the banner of the Song Dynasty.

The old man Liu Biao had mixed feelings when he saw Zhao Defang and Yi Ji. It was a very subtle feeling when he had been protecting his powerful strength and turned into the culprit who destroyed the Han Dynasty.

As a clan member of the Han Dynasty, Liu Biao actually did not want the Han Dynasty to perish, but there is a saying that the general trend is that as Lu Heng gradually becomes stronger and stronger, unification is the trend.

Liu Biao and Lu Heng have always had a good relationship, and the latter did not slaughter the blood of the Han family, and even openly accepted Liu Xie's daughter as a righteous daughter.

Moreover, Lu Heng's courtesy to Liu Biao was also very clear. As long as Liu Biao was willing to join him, he would be named King Dexian, the eldest son Liu Qi would enter the court as an official, and the youngest son Liu Cong would enter Jiangdong Academy as a student.

In fact, the old man Liu Biao was still a little moved. He was already an old man with half a foot in the coffin, so he naturally wanted to think about future generations.

"Defang, this matter is so important that I still want to discuss it with all civil and military personnel, please trouble Defang to stay in Xiangyang for a few more days."

"It's natural. I believe Jingsheng Guild will make the right decision." Zhao Defang felt that something was wrong when he saw that Liu Biao did not refuse harshly, but looked determined to die for the Han Dynasty.

In the next few days Liu Biao frequently summoned Yi Ji, Kuai Liang, Qi Wukai, Song Zhong, Han Song, Liu Xian, Yi Ji, Deng Xi, Pang Ji, Fu Xun, Wang Can, Liu He, Lou Fa, Shen Mi, Lai Gong, Han Ji and others discussed the matter of taking refuge with Lu Heng.

At the same time, the news that Lu Heng proclaimed himself emperor and established the Song Dynasty also reached Liu Bei of Nanyang County!

Liu Daer's life in the past year has not been easy, especially after Lu Heng's diplomatic attack, Liu Biao's support for Liu Bei has been reduced by half.

Because when he deposed the emperor, Liu Bei jumped up and down, which made Lu Heng very dissatisfied and put pressure on Liu Biao many times.

The latter was also afraid of angering Lu Heng and cut off 8000% of Liu Bei's financial and food support. You must know that Liu Bei only had 2 troops on the surface, but in fact he secretly recruited nearly [-] people. You must know that Liu Da'er, a small man, dared to recruit [-] people. Soldiers and horses, this is not the first time Liu Bei has done this.

Without Liu Biao's support, Liu Bei could hardly afford to support so many soldiers and horses.

As for the properties of the Mi family, they were already copied by Lu Heng.

Liu Bei and important civil and military officials in Rang County, such as Song Jiang, Guan Yu, Pang Tong, Hua Rong, Dong Ping, Wu Yong, etc., were discussing plans for the new year.

Zhang Fei and Chen Dao suddenly entered the hall, and the former shouted the latest news: "Brother, the news has come that Lu Heng's son has ascended the throne as a puppet emperor, and what kind of Song Dynasty has been established!"
