Ragnarok is born

In other dynasties, such a large number of refugees would have turned into a riot long ago, raising troops to rebel against the Zhao family.

However, the wonderful recruiting system of the Song Dynasty was able to recruit batch after batch of "Xiangjun", which actually minimized the influence of the refugees.

Only the Song Dynasty, which was extremely financially rich, could successfully recruit refugees into national soldiers.

However, if this is the case, the "Xiang Army" that has been accumulating every year in the end has become a redundant soldier in "redundant personnel, redundant soldiers, and redundant expenses".

Fortunately, during the Shenzong period, Wang Anshi carried out reforms and forcibly continued the Great Song Dynasty. Otherwise, no one knows whether the Zhao family can still stand firm.

Bao Daoyi was born as an official, so he naturally knew that although the "Xiangjun system" could eliminate the harm of refugees to the greatest extent.

But every year, there are still many refugees who are not recruited by the imperial court, but occupy the mountains as kings, and fall into the grass as bandits.

The Eighth Volume of Xianxia Outlaws of the Marsh No.16: Maitreya Zeng Xingbing

In the Song Dynasty, although small-scale peasant uprisings came and went one after another, large-scale uprisings that could corrupt several states were rare.

During the reign of Emperor Taizong and Chunhua in the early Song Dynasty, Wang Xiaobo and Li Shun revolted in Sichuan, which can be regarded as one of the best peasant uprisings in the entire Song Dynasty.

In addition, many others were immediately wiped out by the imperial army as soon as they emerged, and they did not leave a name at all.

Fang La gazed across the void, staring at the north, and exhaled lightly, "Song Ting's energy is not exhausted, it is really not a good time to raise troops."

Bao Daoyi sighed secretly when he heard the words.

In the eyes of Fang La and Bao Daoyi, the red dragon symbolizing the luck of the Song Dynasty, although it looks bloated and lifeless.

But generally speaking, it still exudes endless vitality, and it can continue to survive by itself for an unknown number of years.

Compared with this red dragon, which sometimes stares and scans the four directions, vigilant about whether there is any abnormal situation in its own territory, the black water dragon representing the northern Liao Kingdom looks dying and unable to continue its life.

A trace of comfort flashed across Bao Daoyi's heart.

Since Song Taizong Zhao Guangyi, Song and Liao have been hostile to each other for more than 130 years.

As two great powers in opposition between the North and the South, the Liao Kingdom is located on the grassland, and has inherited the consistent toughness of the grassland peoples such as the Huns and Xianbei, and its strength is still higher than that of the Song Dynasty.

The "Battle of Tanyuan" back then, if it wasn't for Prime Minister Kou Zhun who tried so hard to stop Song Zhenzong, who wanted to move his capital to the south, and successfully persuaded Song Zhenzong to go to the front line of the war to supervise the battle in Chanzhou, and killed Liao general Xiao Talin in the first battle.

The morale of the Liao army plummeted, and the Empress Dowager Xiao had to follow the advice of the surrendered general Wang Jizhong to start peace talks with the Song State.

Afterwards, Song and Liao, although there were occasional border conflicts, relatively speaking, they have been in a state of long-term peace.

Since then, except for the long-term confrontation between the Dangxiang clan in the northwest and the Xixia Kingdom, the Song Dynasty looked around, and there was no large-scale military incident that could shake the rule.

As a result, the three dynasties of Zhenzong, Renzong, and Yingzong "forgot the battle and went to the army", and the main forces such as the Hebei Army and the Jingshi Army of the Forbidden Army were "abolished". Only the Shaanxi Army, which has been fighting the Xixia Army for a long time, can barely be used.

This is also the important confidence that Fang La and the Mingjiao people dared to raise troops against the imperial court, and even had the confidence to overthrow the Zhao family's rule.

On the other hand, the Liao Kingdom in the north, because they maintained the grassland nomads and grazing habits, they were proficient in equestrianism since childhood, and when they became adults, they were able to obey the call to become cavalry, so they have always maintained a military advantage over the Song Dynasty.

But at this moment, in the eyes of Fang La and Bao Daoyi, the black water dragon representing the luck of the Liao Kingdom looks weaker than the red fire dragon of the Song Dynasty. This strange situation made them puzzled for a while.

Although the strength of these two people is high, how can they compare with Zhao Fujin? They can only be roughly checked, and they have formed the dragon statue of the country's luck.

He didn't even notice that golden flood dragon curled up under the aging black water dragon.

This golden flood dragon was only transformed by Jurchen's family aura, and it was far from being transformed into a real dragon of dynasty destiny.

Therefore, the Jurchens at that time, under the leadership of Aguda, actively contacted the leaders of various Jurchen tribes, preparing to raise troops against the Liao Dynasty.

However, as a big country in the north, the Liao Kingdom has ruled the grassland for more than 200 years. Although it has gradually shown signs of decline in recent years, it is still extremely deterrent to all ethnic groups in the north, including the Jurchen.

Aguda secretly hated the increasingly oppressive Liao Kingdom, and also intended to raise troops against Liao, but his future was uncertain, so he had no plans to proclaim himself an emperor and establish a country.

Therefore, the Jurchen clan's aura is flourishing and has evolved into the power of a dragon, but as long as the Jurchens do not establish a country for a day, they will not be able to transform into a dragon of luck.

With the strength of Fang La and Bao Daoyi, they can detect the luck dragons of various countries, but it is difficult to detect the Jurchen's forehead family qi.

Until three years later, in the battle of Chuhedian, the Jurchens defeated the Liao army, and then took advantage of the victory to capture a large area of ​​land.

Aguda's brothers Wu Qimai, Sagai, Cibushi and others supported Aguda City Emperor Jianguo together, the country was named Dajin, and the year was "Shouguo".

When Fang La and Bao Daoyi checked the sky together, they saw a vigorous golden dragon rising up in the northeast direction, transforming into a golden dragon in one leap, looking all around.

But at this time, Fang La and Bao Daoyi certainly don't know what will happen in the future, so they are worried about Chilong who still looks strong.

Bao Daoyi pondered for a moment, his eyes fell on the starry Shandong territory, and he suggested, "Some time ago, there was a vision in Shandong, which made the poor Taoist very concerned."

"Pindao once speculated about this, but the hexagrams turned out to be chaotic and unclear, with unpredictable fortunes, which made Pindao feel very uneasy."

Fang La was noncommittal, and said as if nothing had happened, "Dare you ask me what you have learned?"

He is a fan of the authorities, so he is completely unaware of the relationship between the one hundred and eight demon kings of Tiangangdisha and himself.

After all, Bao Daoyi had only joined the Mingjiao for a short time, and his involvement in the game was shallow, and he could faintly perceive the threat of Tiangangdisha.

He stared blankly at the star screen, and thought to himself, "Pindao thinks, it's best to send someone to Shandong to investigate."

Fang La was taken aback, and his ears moved.

A heroic woman with shining eyes moaned from the dark, and the clear and sweet voice came to Fang La, Bao Daoyi and the two said, "If you go to Shandong with Bao Daochang, you might as well bring Baihua with you. "

Looking at Fang Bao and the other two, Fang Baihua said generously, "Our Ming Cult's influence in the south of the Yangtze River has reached its peak."

"If it continues to grow regardless of everything, it will definitely attract the attention of the government and become wary of Mingjiao."

"The northern area happens to be still a place that our Mingjiao has not touched. Instead of shrinking in the south of the Yangtze River, it is better to turn around."

Facing Fang La and Bao Daoyi's puzzled eyes, Fang Baihua lightly clapped his hands and said, "I don't know what do you think of Baihua's opinion, Brother and Daoist Bao?"

Fang La smiled wryly, shook his head and said, "Even if we plan to expand to the north and open up new missionary forces."

"It also requires a middle-level and high-level teacher with outstanding ability to go to the north to sit in the town in person, and it is possible to achieve considerable results."

"Besides, Buddhism and Taoism are more influential in the north. My Ming Cult rushed into the north, and no one could predict the result..."

When Emperor Wuzong of the Tang Dynasty exterminated Buddhism, Mingjiao had to entrust Buddhism to Buddhism because of Chen Shuozhen's rebellion against Tang Dynasty.

Although the Tang Dynasty has long since perished, the Ming Cult hiding in western Zhejiang did not take advantage of the opportunity to rise in the era of war-torn Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms.

After all, Mingjiao bears the name of rebellion, so no matter who is sitting on the Dragon Throne, they should be vigilant enough to them.

Qian Liu, the hero who separated the two Zhejiang provinces and established the Wuyue Kingdom, immediately sent troops to encircle and suppress the Mingjiao if there was any sign of its emergence.

Among the other two schools of Taoism and Buddhism, when each of the different sects has grown in strength to varying degrees, Mingjiao is in a more difficult situation.

In addition, the previous generations of Mingjiao leaders, regardless of their talents and strengths, were nothing more than mediocrity. Even if they tried their best to maintain Mingjiao without defeat, it was not easy. How can we talk about strengthening Mingjiao?

Such a difficult situation finally slowly changed after Fang La took the position of the leader of Mingjiao.

After Song Huizong Zhao Ji came to power, he concentrated on enjoying himself. Under the slander of Cai Jing, Zhu Yu and others, he set up a Yingfeng Bureau in Suzhou to search for the land of Zhejiang and Zhejiang for Zhao Ji, especially the rare flowers and stones in Taihu Lake. ".

Zhu Xi tried his best to please Zhao Ji, and while satisfying the emperor, he also tried his best to plunder and plunder, which caused the people in the south of the Yangtze River to suffer greatly.

Fang La took advantage of the chaos to absorb them on a large scale. These people who were harmed by Zhu Man became followers of Mingjiao, and the strength of Mingjiao grew rapidly.

Zhu Miao has a lot of bad deeds, and the people in the south of the Yangtze River are unbearable, and he is listed as one of the "six thieves". Later in history, when Fang La rebelled, he used the name of "Zhu Zhu Miao".

As for the north divided by the traditional schools of Taoism and Buddhism, the Mingjiao led by Fang La actually has no intention of competing with them for believers.

At this time, Fang Baihua said that due to the strength of the Ming Cult in the south, it has reached a bottleneck and it will be difficult to break through for a while.

Why not turn from south to north and go to Shandong to see if we can open up a new sphere of influence in the north.

Fang La was greatly moved when he heard the words.

Bao Daoyi's expression turned serious, and he warned Fang La and Fang Baihua, "The leader must not act rashly."

"Although there are many sects of Buddhism and Taoism in the north, the situation is extremely complicated. If Mingjiao is not properly prepared, it must not rush into the north to preach."

A look of disapproval flashed across Fang Baihua's pretty face, and he refuted Bao Daoyi, "Why did Bao Daochang say that?"

"I also put forward such a suggestion for the sake of Mingjiao. Since Brother Dao objects, please tell me your reasons."

Fang La didn't say a word, quietly listening to the argument between the two.

Bao Daoyi hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "I don't know if the leader has heard of the chaos in Beizhou Wangze?"

Fang Baihua was startled, and asked in confusion, "Who is the king?"

Fang La's heart moved, and she explained to Fang Baihua, "Back then, during the Renzong dynasty of the Zhao family, the leader of the Maitreya Sect launched a mutiny in Beizhou. He called himself the king of Dongping County, and also named his country Anyang, and his reign was holy."

"Later, the two ministers of the imperial court, Ming Hao and Wen Yanbo, led a heavy army to besiege Beizhou, and finally captured the city. After being captured, Wang was escorted to Bianliang City in Tokyo, where he was dismembered and died."

Fang Baihua's pretty face brightened when he heard the words, and he said with great interest, "I never imagined that the Maitreya Sect would rebel against the Song Dynasty so many years ago?"

"The leader of the Maitreya Sect, Wang Ze, is really the predecessor of our Ming Sect."

Fang La ignored Fang Baihua's emotion, but asked Bao Daoyi, "Brother Dao is the descendant of Bao Xiaosu, so he must be very clear about the truth about Wang Ze's rebellion back then."

"Why don't you take advantage of this opportunity and analyze the matter of Wang Ze's rebellion against the Song Dynasty to my brother and sister in detail?"

Volume 17 Xianxia Outlaws of the Marsh No.[-]: Nine Heavens Xuannv Appears

Bao Daoyi hurriedly waved his hands when he heard the words, denying, "Don't be joking, Master, Pindao has nothing to do with the Hefei Bao family."

Fang Baihua turned his gaze to Bao Daoyi, and said in surprise, "What Hefei Bao family? By the way, isn't Bao Xiaosu the famous Baolongtu Baogong?"

Bao Longtu is Bao Zheng.

Bao Zheng was born in Hefei, Luzhou. He was awarded a direct bachelor degree in Longtu Pavilion, so he was called "Bao Longtu".

Bao Zheng was honest and impartial, he was resolute in his court, he was not attached to the powerful, he was impartial, wise and decisive, and dared to appeal for injustice on behalf of the people.

Therefore, the common people regard Bao Zheng as a representative of upright officials, and respectfully call him "Bao Qingtian" and "Bao Gong".

Fang Baihua suddenly heard that Bao Daoyi had such a life experience, she was extremely surprised, and the light in her eyes flickered.

It can be said that the descendants of such a famous person voluntarily join the Mingjiao, which is of great benefit to the cause of Mingjiao.

It's a pity that listening to Bao Daoyi's own tone, he is unwilling to admit that he is a descendant of Bao Zheng.

He obviously had scruples about his identity, so he changed his Christian name from his original name.

You must know that the Bao family in Hefei has inherited Bao Zheng's last wish and has always been known for its "filial piety". Once it is known to others, if there are descendants to join, if it is a Mingjiao who plans to do something wrong, it will definitely be blamed by everyone in the world.

So Bao Daoyi has never revealed the truth that he is a descendant of the Bao family in Hefei in front of outsiders.

Fang La was originally a native of Shezhou, Anhui. He had a different ambition and had a lot of friends. Bao Daoyi was his friend before he became the leader of Mingjiao.

Although Bao Daoyi was born in an official family like the Bao family in Hefei, he had witnessed the corruption of the court since he was a child, so he was not interested in becoming an official.

It wasn't until Fang La became the leader of Mingjiao that he tried his best to invite Bao Daoyi to come out of the mountain, Bao Daoyi had no choice but to agree to Fang La.

However, Bao Daoyi had a special status in Mingjiao, and he did not become a member of Mingjiao, but assisted Fang La in the way of a guest.

Fang La knew it well, it was because Bao Dao Yi's identity was really special, so she treated Bao Dao Yi differently.

Seeing his younger sister Fang Baihua chasing after her, breaking the casserole and asking the end, he couldn't help but look anxiously, restraining Fang Baihua's impulse.

Bao Daoyi didn't admit his identity as Hefei Bao's texture, and Fang La rarely made a fuss about it. Who knows if Fang Baihua's attitude would embarrass Bao Daoyi and turn him into anger in a fit of anger?

Fang Baihua got bored and fell silent for a while.

Bao Daoyi turned a blind eye to Fang Baihua's question, Fang La smiled and said, "The leader is joking, Pindao just happens to know some stories about the leader of Maitreya Sect, Wang Ze, what does it have to do with Hefei Baoshi?"

Fang Baihua muttered to himself, but Fang La smiled and said nothing.

Who doesn't know that Bao Zheng and Wen Yanbo are in-laws. After the second son Bao Shou's wife Zhang died young, he continued to marry Wen Yanbo's daughter as his wife.

According to the results of Fang La's secret dispatch of Mingjiao believers to Hefei to investigate, Bao Daoyi is Bao Shou's direct descendant.

He would not deliberately bring up Bao Daoyi's life experience like his younger sister Fang Baihua did, to make the other party feel embarrassed.

Bao Daoyi saw that Fang La's expression was composed, and he looked like he had no grievances about his excuses, and he suddenly felt at ease.

So he chuckled, and told Fang La and Fang Baihua all the things he knew about Wang Ze.

Wang Ze was originally from Zhuozhou (Zhuo County, Hebei). Because of the famine that fell to Beizhou (northwest of Qinghe, Hebei), he had to sell himself as a shepherd.

Later, he defected to the Xuanyi Army, and because of his military exploits, he was gradually promoted to a junior high school in the army. By chance, he joined the Maitreya Sect.

He is cunning by nature, good at digging camps, and has the status of an officer. His status in Maitreya Sect is naturally very different from other ordinary believers.

Wang took advantage of the convenience of his status as a military officer to seek personal gain in Maitreya, and won the support of other congregations.

As his status in the Maitreya Sect was steadily rising, he came into contact with the secrets of the Maitreya Sect, and successively learned the five dragons, dripping tears and other scriptures.

After studying many classics of the Maitreya religion, Wang Ze was especially interested in the rumor of "Maitreya's birth".

He used the legend that "Sakyamuni Buddha declines, and Maitreya Buddha will continue the world" to spread public opinion to change the world, constantly attracting soldiers stationed in Dezhou, Qizhou and other places, and at the same time getting in touch with local farmers.

As Wang Ze's influence in the Maitreya Sect continued to expand, he was finally unanimously elected by the Maitreya believers and became the leader of the local Maitreya Sect.
