Chapter 300: Tibetan Buddhism? Want to fight to the death?
“Gongshu Hong!”
After that, she chatted with Baochai in tacit cooperation about family matters to show her close attitude towards Gongshu Hong after her death.
Jia Cong then spoke to Gongshu Hong who was behind him.
“My subordinate is here!”
“I see that most of your Gongshu family’s direct descendants are now working as master craftsmen in the shipyard.”
“Although shipbuilding is important, it is far inferior to Dongli Academy in my heart!”
“Nan Kong has agreed to send fifty great scholars and five great scholars to join Dongli Academy as instructors.”
“Soon, the Marquis will return to Beijing, and then Dongli Academy will start a new round of expansion until it spreads all over Daqian!”
“Each county has a county school, and above the county school is a prefectural school, where great scholars give lectures.”
“Above the prefectural school is the provincial school, where great scholars give lectures!”
“As for the main hospital in Shenjing City, my semi-saint Dharma body will give lectures every Mid-Autumn Festival!”
“Two capitals, thirteen provinces, one hundred and thirty prefectural schools, one thousand one hundred and thirty-four county schools!”
“How many branches can be opened in the Gewu Academy does not depend on me, but on how many people you, Gongshu, can send!”
“Establish a shipbuilding academy in Ningbo!”
“Holding the seal of this marquis, the first batch of students will be selected from the Ministry of Works and experienced craftsmen from naval shipyards across the country.”
“Train the first batch of master craftsmen as soon as possible.”
“In the future, Dongli Academy will be the stage where you can truly demonstrate your abilities as a public servant.”
What Jia Cong said seemed to be asking Gongshujia to hand over the shipbuilding technology, but in fact it was not the case.
Compared with the Dongli Academy that will be spread all over Daqian in the future, the rights of the shipyard are nothing to Gongshujia.
In fact, if he hadn’t wanted to achieve some results after joining Jia Cong.
Which other shipyard in the world could allow the fourth-level Patriarch of the Gongshu family to be in charge?
After Gongshu Jia gave up the idea of establishing a country overseas, Jia Cong undoubtedly planned a beautiful blueprint for Gongshu Jia.
As long as Gongshu Jia had the ability, even the lowest-level county school could set up a Gewu branch in the Dongli Academy.
It was as if all the colleges and universities in Jia Cong’s previous life had opened up a separate subject, and everyone from lecturers to leaders of this subject came from the same school.
Such rights are beyond the reach of even the academic cliques!
Thirty years at most!
Gongshu Jia will be able to realize his wish of having students all over the world.
Its reputation far exceeds that of the Mohist School, which had suppressed it before and made it unable to raise its head!
And in this world, reputation and luck can be transformed into tangible benefits!
“Thank you, my Lord. In two months at most, I will get the Naval Academy back on track!”
Even though he was the current head of the Gongshu family, Gongshu Hong’s tone was filled with uncontrollable excitement.
“Do your best, and I will not treat you badly, Gongshujia!”
“Sooner or later, you will find that even the status of the first family in Daqian is only this high.”
Jia Cong nodded and made a meaningful promise in words that only Baochai could understand.
After saying that, he looked up at the sky.
“While we were talking about this, someone showed up!”
But above the sky, a stream of red light flew from afar and finally landed in front of Jia Cong.
“Little Dao Ge Li, I’m here to meet the Marquis! I’m here to meet the Princess!”
He was wearing a scarlet Taoist robe, and his aura was uncertain!
It was none other than Jia Cong’s old friend from the Gexian Sect, Ge Li, who was known as the “Fire Dragon Immortal” in the Xuanmen Taoism.
After not seeing each other for a long time, Ge Li’s strength has also improved.
The Yin Spirit condensed and broke into the fourth realm.
This improvement is cause for celebration no matter where it is made.
However, it was not enough in front of Jia Cong, who was twelve years old and had reached the fifth level.
“Sister Bao, I’ve heard that Ge Xianzhang is a mature and steady young man among the major sects of Xuanmen. But I think that’s an exaggeration.”
“It’s been almost two years since we last met, and I didn’t expect that Immortal Ge would deliberately humiliate us as soon as we met!”
Jia Cong noticed Ge Li’s inner restraint, turned around and teased Baochai with a smile.
“This… My Lord, it’s my fault, it’s my fault!”
“I’m overthinking!”
When Ge Li heard this, he felt warm at heart and quickly smiled bitterly and begged for mercy.
There is a huge difference between the status of the fifth realm and that of the fourth realm.
Jia Cong’s status is so high now that he is on equal terms with Ge Qing, the late Yangshen founder of the Gexian School.
But when I saw Ge Li, it was still as if they were together in the capital in the past.
“I didn’t expect that Brother Ge would make this trip in person, but did His Majesty issue an order?”
“Your Majesty has Ziweisi send a message to the Marquis, summoning him back to the capital.”
“The royal ban does not apply to officials appointed by the imperial court.”
“I am tired of staying in Shenjing City, so I will take this opportunity to go out for a walk.”
As Ge Li spoke, he couldn’t help but smile.
There is no way, the excuse that Emperor Shunde came up with is really interesting.
According to the royal ban, beings above the fifth realm are not allowed to set foot in the capital.
But the problem is that, let alone Daqian, even in the past several dynasties, probably only Jia Cong, who is at the fifth level, has held a powerful official position in the court.
“Your Majesty, this reason has been found…”
Jia Cong couldn’t help but burst out laughing when he heard this.
It has to be said that what Emperor Shunde did just hit the soft spot of the innate gods, who are soft-hearted and sentimental.
Otherwise, with Jia Cong’s current strength, he could rebuild the world and carry out drastic reforms.
It can even save a lot of energy.
“That’s right, my Lord!”
“Ziweisi detected unusual movements in U-Tsang.”
“The large tribes on the plateau formed a coalition army of 300,000 and stationed them in the area of the Brahmaputra River.”
“It is located right at the junction of U-Tsang, Myanmar, and India…”
“There is a Tibetan living Buddha among the troops.”
Ge Li said this with a serious expression.
“In the previous dynasty, Tibetan Buddhism was the state religion, with many masters. It once suppressed Longhu Mountain so much that it could not raise its head…”
“They have a close relationship with the Brahmans in India.”
“Have to guard against it!”
“Buddhism in Tibet?”
Jia Cong nodded slightly, then chuckled.
U-Tsang!
It is the Tibetan Plateau, which was once the territory of the Yuan Dynasty and had close relations with it.
Later, after Emperor Taizu of Daqian launched an uprising to overthrow the brutal Yuan Dynasty and drove the Yuan court to the northern desert, he never actually launched an attack on U-Tsang.
Only the U-Tsang Regional Administration was established, and some officials and a small number of soldiers were sent to station on the plateau.
Just maintain nominal rule.
The two capitals and thirteen provinces mentioned by the Daqian government did not include the U-Tsang Regional Administration.
All the tribes, big and small, on the plateau obey the orders of the Tibetan Buddhists.
In early May, the army captured the Siamese capital of Ta Thanh and transformed Siam into two protectorates!
After resting for half a month, Jia Cong ordered Sui Maoxiang to lead his troops north to attack Myanmar.
Now a month and a half has passed.
Sui Maoxiang commanded 350,000 troops!
Two hundred thousand Daqian regular troops and a prisoner camp of one hundred and fifty thousand!
Myanmar is located in the south and is different from Daqian!
The northern part of Daqian is bitterly cold, especially in the cold winter months.
Therefore, after avoiding the cold winter, the time for mobilizing troops is mostly spring, summer and autumn.
But it’s just the opposite in the south, where the summer is extremely hot.
There are many forests and insects in Myanmar!
As time goes by, even the combat effectiveness of the soldiers who have entered the country for body building will be affected.
Especially after midsummer.
Sui Maoxiang wanted to demonstrate his ability in front of Jia Cong and intended to conquer a large amount of territory in Myanmar before the hottest time of midsummer.
Directly divide the army into two, leaving the deputy general to temporarily lead the central army.
Personally lead the prisoner camp as the vanguard!
The 150,000 prisoners in the prison camp have all gone through a lot of killing and fierce fighting, and most of them have practiced a simplified version of the “Bloodthirsty Art” before entering the prison!
They completely abandoned logistical supplies, collected food locally, and rushed into Burma.
Every city they come across will be called to surrender. Those who refuse to surrender will be massacred to train the troops! Within seven days, three cities will be massacred!
When the news came out, Myanmar was shocked!
The King of Burma was frightened three times a day and hurriedly sought support from the Westerners he had previously consulted.
But there were no traces of any Western masters in the capital.
At this time, with the deliberate spread of “interested people”.
The outcome of the battle outside Yingtian Prefecture also spread within Myanmar.
Sui Maoxiang led the prisoner camp to attack all the way, except for a very small number of loyal members of the Burmese royal family who resisted stubbornly.
Most of the cities they encountered surrendered upon hearing the news.
I persisted for more than half a month.
The Toungoo King of Myanmar has no strong support outside and no good strategy inside.
It seemed that Sui Maoxiang’s army was unstoppable and would soon reach the city of Mandalay.
Considering the murderous character of those soldiers in the prisoner camp, it is still unclear whether they can survive.
In the end, he simply announced his surrender.
Wherever the army passes, there is no resistance!
Seeing Sui Maoxiang pacify Burma so quickly.
The tribes in Nepal, Bhutan and other places, which are not even considered dynasties today, are actually the traditional sphere of influence of Tibetan Buddhism.
That is why the Tibetan Buddhists in U-Tsang could not hold back.
He summoned the major tribes on the plateau and formed a coalition force of 200,000 men to station on the border.
Then they deliberately staged a scene in which the Living Buddha appeared to bless the believers in order to intimidate the army marching south.
Of course, there are also those who want to see if there is any advantage to be gained after the southern expedition army enters India.
……
“Medicine Spirit!”
“My subordinate is here!”
Jia Cong chuckled in the void.
Seven green figures appeared.
She was wearing a silk dress and had a pretty face.
They were none other than the seven medicinal goddesses under Jia Cong’s command: Suye, Qiusang, Peilan, Qingdai, Pinellia, Angelica dahurica and Perilla!
When they separated, it was the fourth realm, after the seven were combined into one.
But he has the strength of the fifth realm, the early Kongming realm.
“You sisters are heading to the Tibetan highlands.”
“Pass on this order and tell the Buddhist sect in Tibet!”
“If anyone dares to obstruct the southern expedition, I will personally lead my experts to the plateau and fight the Tibetan Buddhist sect to the death!”
The voice is cold, but full of confidence!
The development of Shintoism not only conferred a large number of ghosts and gods, but also accumulated a huge amount of merit for Jia Cong!
Merit protects the body, there are no taboos!
The Living Buddha of Tibet was afraid of being entangled by karma and ruining his future, so he didn’t dare to take action against ordinary people, but Jia Cong dared!
No matter how strong the Tibetan Buddhist foundation is, there are still masters who can defeat the enemy!
Look at Jia Cong!
The development of Shinto power has already shown a snowball-like trend!
The Tibetan Buddhist sect lost a master of the fourth realm!
Jia Cong will have an additional fourth-level ghost general on his side!
Unless all the ghost and god masters under Jia Cong were wiped out with thunderous means from the very beginning!
Otherwise, if they just fight in terms of consumption, even a top-notch force would not be a match for Jia Cong!
“I obey my orders!”
Su Ye, the eldest sister among the seven medicinal spirit goddesses, bowed and accepted the order.
Then the seven of them merged together and turned into a stream of green light and flew southeast.
……
“My Lord, who are these seven seniors?”
It was not until Yao Ling Tiannu left that Ge Li came to his senses from his shock.
Thinking back to Jia Cong’s domineering words just now, he felt a sense of generosity and excitement in his heart.
That is the Tibetan Buddhism with profound heritage!
Although the previous dynasty only occupied the world for more than a hundred years, it was the dominant state religion.
It’s unknown how much benefit this top-notch force has gained.
However, Jia Cong sent someone to directly rebuke them and ordered them to retreat.
Otherwise, I will go to the plateau and fight to the death!
It would be a laughing stock if others said so, but think about the North Cave which was just flattened!
can only say……
This is what a man should do!
“Yao Ling was originally the goddess of good fortune of the Indian Brahmanism. Later, she was injured in the great war with the Westerners.”
“He was kidnapped by the Pure Land Sect, and I rescued him by chance.”
Jia Cong briefly explained the origin of Medicine Spirit Goddess, while secretly observing Ge Li’s reaction.
“Humph, those people from the Buddhist sect…”
“I didn’t expect that they would extend their tentacles overseas.”
“There is nothing worse than this, stealing by trickery and hiding filth!”
Sure enough, Ge Li’s performance directly confirmed Jia Cong’s guess.
The Buddhists and Taoists dislike each other and are as hostile as water and fire.
The low-key style of Buddhism in Daqian in recent years is inevitably due to the suppression of several Taoist sects.
“Forget it, let’s not talk about this, my Lord, His Majesty has summoned you to the capital.”
“Let’s get going quickly.”
……
U-Tsang
Brahmaputra River
A mighty river divides the plateau into two halves!
The upper reaches are the Yarlung Zangbo River in U-Tsang!
All the way south!
It happens to pass through the borders of Myanmar, U-Tsang and India.
In Sanskrit, Brahmaputra means “Son of Brahma”!
This is enough to show how high a status this river holds in the hearts of local people.
But today there is a large army stationed on each side of the river!
Sui Maoxiang looked at the other side of the river with a serious expression.
The southern expedition army pacified Burma ahead of schedule, and the prisoner camp continued to serve as the vanguard all the way north.
The original plan was to station here and see if we could proceed as planned before heading into India next year.
It is still difficult to change the plan in advance.
Unexpectedly, they encountered the coalition forces of the U-Tsang Plateau tribes here.
……
The soldiers of the U-Tsang tribe wore different clothes and looked like a variety of refugees.
Only a few elite tribesmen wear leather armor.
However, the climate in the plateau is harsh and martial spirit is prevalent.
Its combat capability is far beyond what its complex appearance can reflect.
Of course, this is not the main point!
The most important thing is the sky above the 200,000-strong coalition camp opposite.
Eight figures are sitting cross-legged and reciting scriptures!
As the sound of chanting echoed.
Prayer wheels, Dzi beads, elephant marrow, lotus, Buddha!
Many strange phenomena occurred one after another.
The so-called chanting and praying for the warriors on the other side of the river is actually a demonstration!
The standoff has been going on for three days.
If it weren’t for the dark clouds transformed by Huici protecting the army heading south.
During these three days, countless soldiers were bewildered by the magical powers of the Tibetan Buddhists and swam across the river to join the enemy.
“Amitabha!”
“Since you are also a Buddhist, why do you dare to take up arms and commit murder?”
Finally, after three consecutive days of chanting.
The masters sent by the Tibetan Buddhist sect could no longer remain calm.
Eight people in total!
There are six in the fourth realm and two in the fifth realm!
Basang, the Tantric Living Buddha who had fought with Jia Cong before, was among them!
