"Zuo Rong was a man of cruel nature. He was afraid that Cao Cao would become powerful, so he abandoned Xia Pi and fled. Along the way, he used banquets to kill Zhao Yu in Guangling and Xue Li in Moling, plundered the two places, and annexed their subordinates." Jia Xu said about Zuo. Rong, Liu Cang frowned.

Tao Qian can be said to be a young man in Xuzhou. It is impossible for him not to know that Zuo Rong is under Pi Xingfo. After that, he did not respond to what Zuo Rong did in Xuzhou?

Moreover, Zhao Yu and Xue Li are also local governors. Now we have not reached the stage where the people's hearts are loose. Banquets and killings are an out-and-out evil way. Are local subordinates so easy to accept?

This is no longer a question of whether there is Tao Qian's role in it. I can only say that I don't know how many Tao Qian's roles there will be.

"Zuo Rong led his troops to join Liu Yao, and Liu Yao ordered Zuo Rong to go to Yuzhang to help Zhu Hao compete with Zhuge Xuan for the position of governor of Yuzhang."

"Haha..." As he spoke, Jia Xu shook his head and chuckled, with a strange expression on his face.

"But Zuo Rong was full of banditry. He repeated his old tricks and used a banquet to kill Zhu Hao, but he took Yuzhang instead."

"My lord, Liu Yao has not come into contact with Buddhism. He should be planning to lead his troops to attack Zuo Rong now." The smile on Jia Xu's face became even heavier.

"Zhu Hao is dead? Liu Yao has a grudge against Zhu Jun?" Liu Cang asked subconsciously, but he suddenly wanted to understand the situation.

"Oh, Zhu Jun was born in Kuaiji." Liu Cang was muttering to himself, while Jia Xu smiled and didn't say much.

"The governor of Jiaozhou was Zhu Hao's brother. Zhu Fuqiang recruited soldiers from the county to go north to avenge Zhu Hao. As a result, chaos broke out in Panyu." Jia Xu finally changed the topic to the rebellion in Jiaozhou, but the incident in Jiaozhou could be discussed in one sentence. Pass.

To put it simply, Zuo Rong was practicing Buddhism in Xuzhou, and Cao Cao went to fight him. Zuo Rong went to Liu Yao, and Liu Yao sent Zuo Rong to join Zhu Hao. Zuo Rong persisted in his determination and stabbed Zhu Hao. The elder brother wanted to take revenge and recruited troops to Jiaozhou, causing a rebellion in Jiaozhou.

If the whole thing goes smoothly, the water here is so deep that the Jiaozhou rebellion is really nothing.

"Have you told Zhu Jun in detail about Zhu Hao?" Liu Cang asked.

"Well, Cai Gong has sent a letter to Zhu Jun about this. Everyone knows that my lord has not governed Yangzhou in recent years. However, can Liu Yao still let him go?" Jia Xu replied.

"As long as you don't preach Buddhism and he likes to toss, let him toss."

"Liu Biao and Sun Jian and Yuan Shu are fighting for Jingzhou, which will inevitably lead to chaos in Yangzhou. Since Liu Yao likes to cause trouble, it would be good for the Yangzhou family to cause trouble. There is no need to keep Liu Yao in times of chaos." Liu Cang said coldly, Yuan Huanduji and others shuddered.

A group of scribes were ordered to practice by Liu Cang during this period. They saw that although Liu Cang was strict in his requirements, he seldom hurt anyone when he was moderate. This also made them think that Liu Cang was only strict and was very measured in his actions.

At this time, a turmoil in Jiaozhou caused a series of problems, and Liu Cang sat watching the feud between the princes, and even talked lightly about the life of the governor of the state, as if he was the mastermind behind the scenes.

As expected, everything is an illusion. As expected, my lord has no chance of being a good man or woman.

What did Liu Yao do?

It was obvious to all what kind of person Zuo Rong was. Zhao Yu and Xue Li had learned from his mistakes before him, so in a blink of an eye he sent Zuo Rong to Zhu Hao's side.

Yuzhang is located on the border of Jingyang, and there are already many Shanyue Jiantian holding parties there. Neither place has strict control over the area. It would be confusing no matter how you look at it, to let Zuo Rong lead troops to help Zhu Hao compete for the governor of Yuzhang. I thought Zhu Hao was living too comfortably.

Anyone who understands the situation can see this kind of thing more or less clearly. As long as it does not attract Zhu Jun's hatred, there is no need to say more about the various calculations involved. Compared with Liu Yao's trivial matter, Liu Cang still paid more attention to Buddhist matters.

"Liu Yao can be spared, but Zuo Rong must be killed. Let Ji Ling send troops to help Liu Yao destroy Zuo Rong." When Liu Cang said, Jia Xu agreed.

Buddha, over there in Tianzhu, the divine religion has a deep-rooted foundation, a certain unnameable sect is very powerful, and the history of Buddhism is very short, so it is actually somewhat suspected of being a partial sect there.

If a certain Han emperor hadn't had a dream about a fat golden man, Buddhism might have become an unpopular sect.

In fact, whether it is the Fat Gold Man or the old man who was crucified in Rome, this type of religion is to recruit vulnerable groups to rebel.

That's right, it's a rebellion. The reason why it's called religion or belief over there, and not rebellion, is entirely because the divine power there is higher than the imperial power, and it's more satisfying to be the emperor than to be the emperor.

Their goal is very clear, directed towards the Supreme Being. All people are equal. As long as everyone kneels at the feet of the Supreme Being, there is nothing wrong with saying that all people are equal, right?

So, how can there be so much innocence? If you translate it like this, everyone will understand it, right?

Buddha is definitely not a human being, and since he is not a human being, he naturally cannot do human things.

No comments on the specifics of Buddhism.

One or two hundred years is not a short period of time, especially for a religion that desperately needs 'instant harvest'. No one, well, including no god, would adapt a religion that they want to spread and not be ready to release it after one or two hundred years. .

This has fully demonstrated that at least the rulers of the Han Dynasty did not want Buddhism to spread in the Han Dynasty.

To say it's bad is to avoid criticism, but just imagine how cruel it can be if it has been adapted by these beasts of the Han Dynasty for a hundred or two hundred years, but the Han people are prohibited from learning and worshiping it. You should be able to imagine it just by imagination, right?

Suddenly, I discovered that Xuzhou had become the ancestral land of Buddhism inexplicably. Why did Cao Cao go to Xia Pi? Liu Cang couldn't say for sure, but Liu Cang really didn't want this thing to happen.

"I reported to Chang'an, and the Hussars were ordered to go south to Jiaozhou to quell the rebellion." Liu Cang said to Jia Xu.

"Here." Jia Xu was stunned for a moment and replied.

"Then how many troops are you planning to deploy, my lord?"

"There is no need to mobilize troops, just lead a battalion of Feixiong. Jiaozhou has many mountains and swamps, and tigers, bears and giant pythons are enough to cope with it. Plan a water route to Jiaozhou for me." Liu Cang said, and then looked at the generals beside him.

"Huang Zhong guards Luoyang, and Xu Rong can be adjusted to observe and train. Everything in Changsheng Ridge remains as usual." Liu Cang thought.

Domesticated elephants are extremely expensive, difficult to transport, and consume a lot of money. Luoyang now has more than 300 elephants brought by Liu Cang, but Liu Cang is not willing to kill these elephants for meat now.

This time he plans to bring a few Titanoboa with him to Jiaozhou. Let’s not talk about whether to fence the elephants there or not. With the promotion of various crops and sufficient grass and fodder, more elephants can be raised in the Central Plains.

As a beast of burden.

Maybe it would be good to tame some wild elephants there, or open a training camp for elite soldiers in Jiaozhou where wild beasts are rampant.

"Dian Wei led the Tianxuan camp, and Xu Qun led the Kaiyang camp. Three days later, they organized their troops and marched north to Xuzhou, where they joined forces with Cao Cao."

"The Han Dynasty banned the spread of Buddhism, and ordered the generals to burn Buddhist scriptures and tear down the Buddha statues in those temples. After that, the entire Xuzhou area suppressed animals and trained troops. But those who worshiped the Buddha were attacked."

Not far away, the palace servants were still cutting up the python meat. The venue was casual and Liu Cang spoke casually. It was not like mobilizing troops for a formal campaign. Only when he mentioned those who worshiped Buddha, Liu Cang hesitated and frowned slightly.

"My lord, there is no need to worry too much. Buddhism talks about equality and the contribution of believers. Most of the people chanting sutras are forced by Zuo Rong." As if he could understand Liu Cang's thoughts, when Jia Xu said it to Liu Cang, he seemed to be telling the people around him.

"Zuo Rong forced labor to build temples and pagodas, and also forced the people to contribute money, cut off the county's grain and tribute from the princes and kings, and set up banquets and banquets for dozens of miles in the official road. The people visited the Buddha, but most of the people eating and drinking were Zuo Rong's military strategists.

roll."

“Nine out of ten of the money you receive for alms will be left behind. If you spend even one cent to buy incense, you still need people to praise you.”

"It is said that all evil will be avoided if you believe in the Buddha. No one among the people likes the Buddha. If there are people who take the initiative to worship the Buddha, they are not evil but people with bad intentions. There is no harm in attacking them." Jia Xu said with a smile and looked around. Everyone agreed with disgust.

Liu Cang nodded silently, that's right, the Han people at this time are not so easy to fool, and in the final analysis of this thing, you still have to profit from people who are miserable enough.

Win over people who are doing well to become Buddhas, and encourage people who are not doing well to become Buddhas.

The essence of this thing is to brainwash the people and establish the supreme routine, but it is the most cost-effective and the easiest way to disable all the people.

And Zuo Rong's business ability is obviously not up to par. Anyone who actively believes in the faith preached by such a thing has either bad intentions or is wrong with his head.

Don't think too much about the worship of Buddha in Xuzhou. Since Zuo Rong caused such a big scene, Tao Qian doesn't care. Then Dianwei and Xu Qun will demolish some temples. If Tao Qian dares to come out and make a noise, Liu Cang will let Dianwei go.

The authority to attack any enemy you encounter.

After confirming the deployment of troops, Chen Deng, who was reluctant and considered a local leader, was ordered to accompany the army.

Considering his new understanding of Xuzhou, Liu Cang asked Chen Deng to convey advice to Cao Cao about paying attention to his father's safety.

Later generations had different opinions on Tao Qian's death of Cao Cao's father. Liu Cang originally believed that Tao Qian was a good old man, but after seeing the bad things in Xuzhou, he saw that this good old man really had many cruel and ruthless people.

The strangest thing is that these people seem to obey such a good old man in every way?

Liu Cang now also doubts the truth about the death of Cao Cao's father. If he can save Cao Song's life, he can save it, so that Cao Cao will not be able to slaughter Xuzhou confidently.
