Chapter 5311 Competing with the power of faith

Kumarajiva said coldly: "Huiyuan seems to like Liu Yu quite a lot. He has lived in the mountains for decades and has no idea of ​​the vicissitudes of the world. However, he has experienced terrible wars when he was young. In his opinion, the situation under Liu Yu's rule is

Dajin is far better than the territory when Tianshi Dao was in rebellion, and it is also much better than the war-torn north. And all the words that are unfavorable to Liu Yu are just what we instilled in him, or Lu Gu and him

He may not believe everything you say."

Doupeng shook his head: "In Guangzhou, the Jin army hunted down and massacred the disciples of Tianshi Dao, and even the wealthy households in the city who were registered disciples were not spared. This was what he saw with his own eyes. If it weren't for the Jin army helping us,

Busy, he may not believe us. What your Buddhist school talks about is great compassion, and you want to save all living beings. Even the heinous people can be saved as long as they put down the butcher's knife and wholeheartedly do good. Even if Huiyuan faced Lu Gu,

They all want to let him live. Therefore, Huiyuan will be shaken when he sees that the Jin army is killing the people of Tianshi Dao."

"Essentially, he is a good old man who doesn't want anyone to be harmed. Now that Liu Yu is on the stronger side and he can control the life and death of his enemies, he will inevitably stand on the opposite side of Huiyuan. As long as we can make Huiyuan also show respect to Liu Yu

Please ask him to let go of those followers of Tianshi Dao in Lingnan, or let him step in and bring these people into Buddhism. What do you think the result will be?"

Kumarajiva frowned slightly and said: "Based on my understanding of Liu Yu, he will give Huiyuan face. If Huiyuan can help Guangzhou City be defended, then he will be the person who made the greatest contribution in suppressing the rebellion.

And he is very popular among the people. This face will be given by Liu Yu, because he himself only punished the culprits of the Tianshi Dao rebellion and never asked about his side, because he did not want to kill more. Lingnan is the home base of Tianshi Dao for nearly ten years.

Both soldiers and civilians have some relationship with Tianshi Dao. Just like the wealthy families in Guangzhou, even if they do not join Tianshi Dao, they will still remember their names and donate some incense money. Ordinary people rarely do not work for Tianshi.

Those who have done things in the Tao, if we expand it, then I am afraid that not even one out of ten people from Lingnan will survive."

Doupeng's eyes flashed coldly: "But Liu Yu returned to Jiankang and did not personally direct the final battle against Tianshi Dao. What do you think is the reason for this?"

Kumarajiva sighed: "You just said that this is not to steal the military merits of the generals, but also to give the power to decide the life and death of the Tianshi Taoists in Lingnan to the generals. In other words, he

In fact, it is acknowledgment that these subordinates are going on a killing spree in Lingnan. On the one hand, it will satisfy their need for military merit and beheadings. On the other hand, it will also be able to completely eradicate the foundation of Tianshi Dao in Lingnan to prevent chaos from happening again."

Doupeng laughed: "That's it. Lingnan is a remote place. It is difficult for the Jin imperial army to station there for a long time. Once they leave, local barbarians may rebel again. Tianshi Dao belongs to the Jin State.

Dead enemies, many remnants of the party will hide among the people or even flee to barbarian tribes for temporary shelter. Once the Jin army evacuates, they may come back and gather to cause chaos. From a military point of view, even if they start to kill more to establish their prestige,

People will also reduce the risk of another rebellion in Lingnan in the future."

Kumarajiva said in a deep voice: "Killing innocent people just to prevent possible rebellion in the future is against our Buddhist teachings and is absolutely unacceptable to Huiyuan. According to your words, if Huiyuan can help defend Guangzhou

Even if his great achievements cannot protect the tens of thousands of living beings in Lingnan, then he will definitely regard Liu Yu as a tyrant like Shi Hu, and will no longer cooperate with him, but will use his influence to fight against Liu Yu."

Doupeng nodded with satisfaction and said: "This is the effect I want. Once Liu Yu becomes an enemy of this living Buddha and holy monk, his prestige among the people will decline. If he thinks about the Northern Expedition or the Western Expedition, then

It is bound to increase military pay and increase taxes again. In the past, in order to conquer the Celestial Master and pacify the country, we had to defend our country. However, the Northern Expedition is an extra burden for ordinary people. When the time comes, you and Huiyuan can

He said that these are unnecessary wars. Just like your Qin State, Yao Xing has given up his plans for foreign wars and focused on domestic development so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment. If Helian Bobo hadn't caused chaos, Qin State would have become a Buddhist kingdom on earth.

.”

Kumarajiva sneered and said: "Although I am Yao Xing's national advisor, I must say that he is not really peace-loving, but it is really because he cannot defeat the Northern Wei Dynasty. In the Battle of Chaibi, the main force of the Qin army,

Fifty thousand of the most elite soldiers were buried in Hedong and the Yellow River. The tragedy made Yao Xing almost sick. Even when I performed rituals for these fallen soldiers, the cries of hundreds of thousands of family members shook the sky and the earth.

It also broke my heart. After that, Yao Xin devoted himself to Buddha. If Liu Yu can also experience such a failure and never cause more troubles, that will be our blessing and the blessing of the people all over the world."

Doupeng curled up his lips and said: "Our Ten Thousand Years Peace Plan cannot keep the world peaceful for too long, so we had to launch Fu Jian's Southern Expedition and then let Liu Yu join the army. However, this time the war continued.

It is indeed too long and should be ended and slowed down. It’s just that Liu Yu has lost control and has become our enemy. This must be defeated. Defeat Liu Yu militarily and remove Liu Yu politically. These two

It is no longer possible to realize it, so we can only use the method of supporting Liu Yu in the past, using public opinion and the appeal of the people to evade him, causing his Northern Expedition to fail, causing him to betray his relatives, and finally be forced to step down.

Only people with true faith like Huiyuan can achieve these things."

Speaking of this, Doupeng's eyes flashed coldly: "Liu Yu was able to rise to power back then because he prayed for the people and because he risked his life for the sake of his brothers in Beifu. If it weren't for his strong Northern Expedition success,

, the ideal of regaining lost territory and rescuing the Han people who were in dire straits at the hands of the Hu people, how could An Neng risk his life like this? The vast majority of Beifu Army soldiers joined the army for wealth and for themselves. Only Liu Yu did this for others,

For the sake of the common people in the world, he can truly abandon his selfish interests and his ego. This is the fundamental reason for his success and popularity."

Kumarajiva nodded: "This is the power of faith. Liu Yu relied on his faith to win people's hearts and conquer the world. So, you are now looking for Huiyuan, who has the same firm faith and is dedicated to the people, to fight against Liu Yu.

Yu, this is a battle of faith, right?"

Doupeng nodded vigorously: "Yes, so we can only use this power of faith, but we cannot intervene, because they have nothing to gain, and we have something to gain. Huiyuan is our weapon against Liu Yu, but

They are definitely not our comrades!" (End of Chapter)
