Great Wei Nengchen

"Master Xiao is merciful, please spare the Buddhist sect!"

………………

The monks didn’t come here to fight for their lives, and they didn’t dare to borrow their courage, but to beg for mercy. They sat around in front of Wuchouhou’s mansion, cried, made trouble, hanged themselves, hunger strike, and self-immolation. All kinds of rogue tricks were used.

In order to survive, face is no longer important, and the monks have inquired about it, Ghost Face Xiao Lang is fierce and domineering, but he is proud of his superiors without humiliating his subordinates, bullying the strong without bullying the weak, and never kills those who are subdued!

Buddhist disciples from Zhengming Academy also ran over to help intercede, shouting 'Master Xiao' one by one, at least leaving a way for the Buddhist sect to survive, and some officials, businessmen, and common people who believed in Buddhism and sympathized with the monks also came. There are tens of thousands of people gathered!

At this point, Xiao Yi couldn't just sit idly by, the monks were in a desperate situation, if they were forced to continue, they would jump off the wall. Although they couldn't shake the country, it was still a big trouble, and they had to be forgiven and forgiven Bar!

Therefore, people were sent to notify Wu Zhi to stop the oppression of the temples and release the arrested monks; Guo Yi was also asked to come forward to negotiate with the abbots of the temples, and worked out a series of conditions:

First, the construction of temples in various places in the future needs to be approved by the imperial court and the government. The number of monks must also be limited. The number of monks should not exceed 50 in large temples, 20 in middle temples, and [-] in small temples. Those who exceed it will be severely punished!

Second, all monks and nuns who become monks need to be issued by the government. Each copy needs to be ten taels of gold. Those who do not have a degree are called wild monks.

Third, temples are not allowed to conduct business, grant loan sharks, and have no more than ten hectares of land property. Monks and nuns also have to pay land tax and poll tax, and labor can be paid instead!

………………

There are a total of [-] articles, all of which are used to bind Buddhism. The monks grinned their teeth, but there was nothing they could do. If you don’t agree, you will die.

At the same time, on the former site of Tianyi Temple, large-scale construction projects were carried out and houses were rebuilt. Xiao Yi personally went to the court to set up a new yamen - Dongjishi Factory, and set up a factory manager, with the foreman, foreman, and secretary. Room for several people!

The responsibility of the Dongji Police Factory is to monitor monks, nuns, Taoist priests... All monastics who practice illegal activities can be arrested immediately and sentenced to severe punishment. Wu Zhilai is the first director of the factory.

Xiao Yi's memorial was handed over, and it was quickly approved, and Wu Zhi happily took office, and he was doing well, but some people raised questions, why is this newly established Yamen called Dongji Incident Factory? Well, could it be that there is also the West Police Department?

There are also officials in charge, why are they not called factory supervisors, factory supervisors, factory lieutenants... instead they are called 'factory officials'. Where did the strange names come from?

Xiao Yi didn't answer everyone's questions. He went back to his study and laughed for a long time... Anyway, the Buddhist forces suppressed it. As long as the rulers don't change from day to day, and there are no fools and incompetent people, they will be safe for hundreds of years nothing!

The confiscated temple land was allotted to the poor for cultivation, and the land tax was exempted for three years. Buddha statues and bronze bells were minted into coins. use!

In this way, the soldiers, salaries, and supplies for the Western Expedition have been prepared, and the next step is to choose the commander. Xiao Yi is interested in Cao Zhang, but Cao Cao and Mrs. Bian may not be willing, and they need to be accommodated!

In addition, Ma Chao and Cao Zhang are both brave men. It is no problem to charge forward, but it is not good to plan strategies. If you want to pacify the 36 countries in the Western Regions and fight all the way to Tianzhu, you need a superb strategist!

Chapter 1408 The Great Army's Western Expedition, God-given Counselor ([-])

In the secret room of the Prime Minister's Mansion - brightly lit and heavily guarded, Cao Cao, Xiao Yi, Cheng Yu, Man Chong, Mao Jie... More than [-] civil and military officials gathered, including the four brothers Cao Pi, Cao Zhang, Cao Zhi, and Cao Xiong , this meeting is only for one thing - West Expedition!

After several months of preparation, [-] people have been recruited into the camp of the "Gluttie Army" in the north of the city. enough.

At the same time, Liangzhou Mu-Zhong Yao went all out to collect a large number of horses and camels for the transportation of materials for the Western Expeditionary Army. Through personal relationships, Xiao Yi, the Western Qiang and the Huns also agreed to provide materials, and each sent 1 people help the battle!

"The ugly beard of the Western Regions is rampant and rude, dare to fight against the great Han Tianwei, the only way to defeat him is with soldiers and horses, now spring is warm and flowers are blooming, the roads are smooth, and the army is ready!

I don't know which general is willing to invite Ying to lead the army out of Yumen Pass to break the siege of Ershi City, annihilate the allied forces of Daxia, Kangju, and Dayue clan, and restore the Western Regions Protectorate? "

Maybe it was the miraculous effect of Cordyceps sinensis, or maybe it was because the state affairs were going well and he was in a good mood. Cao Cao's complexion improved a lot, and he spoke with full of air.

The Western Regions are far away, the environment is harsh, more than [-] countries are distributed, and there are hundreds of tribes. The situation is extremely complicated, and it will not be pacified unless it is wise and courageous. Cao Cao thought for a long time, and he really hoped to send one to the expedition - Xiao Yi!

Xiao Yi is both civil and military, with outstanding military achievements, especially after returning from the Southern Expedition, he not only firmly grasped the military power, but also intervened in financial and administrative power, and his power expanded rapidly, which made Cao Cao restless!

If Xiao Yi is sent out to conquer the Western Regions, it will be easy to pacify the Western Regions, and then let him fight all the way west, never returning to the Central Plains, and then take the opportunity to gradually disintegrate the Xiao Group, the Cao family will have no more worries!

But, unless Xiao Yi's brain was flooded, he would leave the Huahua World in the Central Plains and go to the Western Regions to eat sand. If the order is forced, there will be drastic changes!

"The last general is not talented, and I am willing to lead the army to march west to break the siege of Ershi City!"

"The last general is also willing to take a hard trip to pacify the 36 countries in the Western Regions, and to promote the prestige of our great Han Dynasty!"

…………

Xiao Yi didn't want to go west, but there were plenty of people who were willing. Xu Huang, Zhang Yun, Yu Jin, and Le Jin all volunteered to go to the expedition. Even Xiahoudun, Xiahouyuan and other clan generals, Man Chong and Mao Jie were eager to try!

Since the Western and Eastern Han Dynasties, no one can compare with Wei Qing and Huo Qubing in terms of military exploits. Except for the two men who used soldiers like gods and won many battles. More importantly, they conquered Mobei and settled the Western Regions, opening up the frontier for the great Han. Tuo Tu, the ones who are wiped out are all the Huns!

In contrast, among Emperor Guangwu's 28 Yuntai generals, Deng Yu, Cen Peng, and Wu Han were also capable of fighting well, but their prestige was far different, because they were fighting a civil war, and all of them killed were of the same blood!

It's the same now. Cao's army fought north and south for many years, and most of them fought with the princes. The Han family attacked the Han family, and they won't feel honored when they won. The few battles against Xiqiang, Xiongnu, and Hujie were all fought by Xiao Yi alone. Others can only envy her achievements!

Now he wants to go on an expedition to the Western Regions and fight against foreign troops. If he wins, he will be famous in history, ranking behind Wei Qing and Huo Qubing.

"Haha, I am very pleased that you all volunteered to join us. It can be seen that the court is full of talents. However, surrounded by powerful enemies in the Western Regions and difficult to supply logistics, Ma Chao is even more brave. I am afraid that ordinary generals will not be able to restrain him, and the two teams will not be able to work together work together!

I heard that when Wuchou was in Guanzhong, he fought with Ma Mengqi, and he won all the contests of martial arts and drinking, so that everyone admired him very much, and he was honored as General Shenweitian, the old man is also honored! "

Cao Cao's methods are sophisticated, first he emphasized the difficulty of the Western Expedition, and then brought out Ma Chao, in order to intimidate the generals who asked for Ying, and let them retreat in spite of difficulties!

Ma Chao is extremely fierce and brave, he is known as the number one warrior in Xiliang, when ordinary generals encounter him, instead of being able to control them, they may be restrained by him, and their lives may even be in danger!

In the end, he strongly praised Xiao Yi and told how he defeated Ma Chao. In fact, he was implying to everyone that Xiao Yi was the best candidate for the Western Expedition, and then forced him to invite Ying to fight to realize his plan of "disaster"!

"Thanks to the praise from the Prime Minister, I will feel ashamed in the end. At that time, I was young and frivolous, so I fought with Ma Mengqi. This man is brave and unpretentious, but he is also a good-natured person. In fact, it is not difficult to get along with!

Logically speaking, the Western Expedition is a major national event, and the last general should invite Ying, but...cough cough, but when Wulin retreated, the last general was trapped in a big swamp, suffered several hidden injuries, and lost his blood sharp!

Every time it rains on a cloudy day, I feel sore and weak. The wind and rain in the Western Regions are erratic, and there will be heavy snow in June... Cough cough, the body of the last general is nothing, I am afraid that it will delay the battle, and it will be due to the prime minister...cough cough! "

Having been with the villain for many years, how to defend himself, how to pretend to be a ghost, has become Xiao Yi's instinct, his color changes drastically when he speaks, his face turns pale, and his breath is short of breath, as if he will die in the next moment.

Since ancient times, emperors have not sent out hungry soldiers or sick generals, Xiao Yi has such a ghostly appearance, who would have the nerve to let him lead the troops to the west, let's cultivate well in Xuchang!

"Worriless is the pillar of the country, take good care of your health, the old man has to rely on it a lot, and the dogs need to be taken care of, since it is inconvenient for Wushou to lead the army, how about letting General Ma Liu go out?

Ma Liu is brave and good at fighting, and he is from Xiliang. He is familiar with the situation in the Western Regions. "

The traitor fails in one plan, but makes another plan. This time he wants to send Ma Liu to the Western Regions. He is Xiao Yi's confidant, who has been sitting in Guanzhong-Chang'an, firmly guarding the backyard of the Xiao Group.

Sending Ma Liu to the Western Regions is tantamount to cutting off Xiao Yi's left and right arms, and sending another general surnamed Cao to take over the affairs of Guanzhong-Chang'an is tantamount to copying the Xiao family's back road, which is also extremely beneficial to the Cao family!

"What the Prime Minister said is very true, Ma Liu is brave and good at fighting, but he is a suitable candidate, but a few days ago, Chang'an sent a letter saying that the mother of Ma Liu's cousin's cousin passed away!

My brother is a man of great filial piety, and now he is heartbroken, and vowed to observe his filial piety for his cousin grandma for a year, not to drink or drink, and not to kill. Now sending him to fight, I'm afraid it will be unreasonable? "

Xiao Yi has been running Guanzhong for many years, and has always regarded it as his base camp, so how could he allow others to get involved, so he immediately found an excuse and refused.

However, it is a bit unreasonable to excuse twice in a row, and if you continue to entangle, you will reveal your flaws, so let's 'reverse defense and attack'!

"The final general recommends a candidate who is full of vigor and bravery. If he leads the army to the Western Regions, he will definitely win a big victory. I'm afraid that the Prime Minister will not bear it?"

"Whoever has this ability, as long as it is beneficial to the country, I will definitely be willing!"

"The third son - Ziwen can be handsome!"
