The establishment of a guard directly belonging to the Archbishop of the Eastern Diocese is inevitable under the current tense situation.

Eunuch Wei believed that the missionary affairs of the Eastern Diocese are currently being challenged and attacked by reactionaries led by the Japanese shogunate. In the countries of the Eastern Diocese, for various reasons, the safety of clergy cannot be sufficiently protected to a certain extent, which restricts the development of the church.

Therefore, it is necessary to establish a guard directly belonging to the Eastern Diocese, so that at any time and anywhere, it can quickly invest and quickly strike against the enemies of God.

Eunuch Wei is God's disciple, so his enemy is God's enemy.

This is beyond doubt and need not be discussed.

Considering that he had just taken over the Eastern Diocese and the previous Jesus was very complicated, Eunuch Wei definitely could not directly call on the power of the Jesus to form a guard directly belonging to his old man.

Then, Dongchang, who is loyal, highly militarized and has more than 200 years of experience in fighting, naturally became the best source of Saint Seiya.

Strictly speaking, this is of employment nature.

Because Eunuch Wei hired the Dongchang Fanshi as an Archbishop of the East and the West as a high salary to become the defender of the Catholic Church.

Just as there is a Swiss Guard in the Vatican that defends the Pope, it is not a big fuss about a warrior in the East that defends the Archbishop.

The importance of the Pope and Eunuch Wei is equal.

Eastern parishes and Western parishes are also equal in status.

"Saint Seiya" is the name given to this guard by Eunuch Wei. He has written to the Vatican regarding organizational issues. If nothing unexpected happens, Pope Paul V will approve the establishment of "Saint Seiya".

Old Master Paul devoted his life to the development of the Eastern Diocese, so any plan that could help the development and stability of the Eastern Diocese must be supported by clapping and supporting him.

Fighting for God and defending God is a divine warrior.

Article 9 of the planning plan is the composition and preparation regulations of Saint Seiya.

According to this Ordinance, all clergy and those serving the church in the Eastern Diocese will become Saint Seiya, but according to the nature of their work, they are divided into clerical fighters and martial fighters.

The literati naturally refers to the priests who are mainly responsible for missionary matters, including but not limited to anyone who is determined to fight for the Catholic Church.

The warrior refers only to the defense forces, including but not limited to any combatants who are willing to use their lives to protect Archbishop Pang Maichen.

All civil and military fighters are obedient to the Archbishop of the Oriental Diocese, and the specific leadership affairs are also under the leadership group directly under the leadership of the Archbishop.

The regulations clearly stipulate that Saint Seiya is divided into sixth grades of the holy rank, first, second, third grade, bronze, silver, and gold.

The regulations also clearly state that the literati mainly wears the existing church outfit and does not make any changes.

The warriors wear brown clothes and wear "loyalty" armbands. When members join, they must vow to be a "steel organization" to serve God, and willingly follow the great Archbishop Pang Maichen.

"You are responsible to me, to me, to the Holy See, to the Holy See, to the Pope!"

"The Jesuits came to China for a hundred years, and they can be said to have no achievements or progress. They have wasted a lot of manpower and material resources of the Holy See. You don't think it's shameful, but I still think it's shameful!"

"Reform must be advanced. If you don't reform, I'd rather die!"

"Whoever dares to stop reform is the enemy of the church!"

"No matter what you think or think, I only ask you to obey unconditionally! Remember, it is unconditionally obedient! You may have objections, but you must retain it!"

"The Pope granted me great power and great trust in me. I have sent a letter to the Pope. If I cannot make the Eastern Diocese into the largest diocese in the Catholic world within ten years, I, Pang Maichen, will personally go to the Vatican and apologize to him!"

"Now, tell me whether you support reform or not, I, Archbishop Pang Maichen!"

Eunuch Wei raised the plan paper in his hand and shouted loudly to the clergy and believers of the association. The saints' embroidered spring swords were staring at the group of red noses and green eyes.

"You must obey every plan and every plan I have made before the Pope has been exempted from my archbishop!"

Eunuch Wei made a sound.

Fu Xunji and the other two were quickly taken away, and they would be taken to Macau and then returned to the Vatican on Spanish merchant ships.

Eunuch Wei was a very democratic person. He allowed Fu Xunji and the other two to go to the Vatican to file a lawsuit, and he would not arrange for them to crash at sea.

Because he is a kind and righteous person.

Voices of opposition and questioning did not appear, and the strict Catholic rank determined that the clergy present could not pose a threat to the authority of the archbishop in Purple.

What's more, the new archbishop in purple already has his guard.

Eunuch Wei didn't care about the opposition of these clergy. There were only more than twenty people around, and they could still go against the will of heaven!

Next, Eunuch Wei pointed out that in the direction of the sinicization of Catholicism, the church should strive to deepen its recognition of the politics, culture, laws and social composition of the Ming Dynasty, and actively support the great Emperor Wanli, love the Ming Dynasty, abide by laws and regulations, and serve the society.

"The great Emperor Wanli was an emperor who was more wise than Emperor Constantine. He agreed and supported the development of our Catholicism in China, but we should realize that the believers we developed were always Chinese and the people of the emperor. Therefore, we cannot place the authority of the church above the laws of China, nor can we place the God we believe in above the emperor!"

"China is an Eastern power with thousands of years of history and a highly civilized history. Its people are as high as 250 million, several times that of the West. Why did the Pope actively promote the establishment of the Eastern Diocese? It is to hope that our Catholic Church can truly take root in China. In that case, everyone here will be a hero in the history of the church!"

After reiterating the importance of the Eastern Diocese and attaching importance to Chinese law and emperor's authority, Eunuch Wei adjusted the current organizational structure of the Eastern Diocese.

To sum up, it means that in the future, there will be no longer a leadership body with the "Church of the Vatican Provinces in the Jesuit Provinces" as the upper and lower relationships;

Instead, it is a new leadership body with the "Eastern Archbishop Oriental Diocese Leading Group, various countries, provinces, and governments" as the upper and lower relationships.

It is simply called the five-level responsibility system.

"The Archbishop is called the leader, the leadership group is called the Academic Affairs Office, the Bishop at the entrance is called the Lord, the priest at the entrance is called the Lord, and the Bishop Xiangkou is called the Lord."

The five-level responsibility system is clearer than the previous three-level responsibility system, and the relationship between the upper and lower leaders is clearer. However, this five-level responsibility system abolished the power that the original Jesuits and even the presidents of various provinces could directly mingle with the Holy See, and replaced it with the Archbishop, that is, the leader's responsibility system.

This means that in the future, all clergy in the Eastern Diocese cannot pass the Archbishop to study in the Church.
