Chapter 619: Tuning the Tiger (9)

 "The imperial envoy came to see the governor. What did he want to teach me?"

Seeing Guan Siqiu asking for an audience, Hu Zhigong remained calm and welcomed him into the hall, offering him fragrant tea.

Guan Siqiu explained the situation and said angrily: "That Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso is so cunning that he doesn't get sick early or late, but he gets sick as soon as he receives the imperial edict. He is obviously pretending, how abominable!"
p>

"The envoy is right, he is indeed pretending to be ill." Hu Zhigong agreed with Guan Siqiu's point of view and asked with a smile: "Since you know that he is pretending to be ill, what countermeasures can you take?"

"We don't have any countermeasures yet, so we came to Governor Xian for discussion."

Hu Zhigong smiled slowly and said: "I have already considered this matter. If you want to make the tiger leave the mountain, you must do two things: one is momentum; the other is emotion. If you use force to force it and move it with emotion, it will happen."<

/p>

The so-called force is to use force to put it bluntly, it is to directly use the army to threaten. Hu Zhigong ordered the general Zhou Shimin to have 6,000 soldiers and horses, and Shigatse surrendered General Gekasa to have 10,000 soldiers and horses, and camped at the foot of Maburi Mountain. It was very impressive.

Wang Losang Gyatso refused to agree, so he razed Mount Maburi to the ground.

Not to be outdone, Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso’s followers said, “Bang~bang~bang~”, the big bell of the White House on the mountain rang.

Monks from various temples in the snowy region, including Jebu, Ben, Dongben, Jiaben, and even ordinary herdsmen, came to the Holy Mountain one after another.

The slogan of "protecting education" was shouted so loudly that more than 30,000 people gathered at one time, and the crowd continued to grow.

Sai Qingqujie and Sangpo Caiwang selected elites from them and arranged for them to be guarded. Another confidant of Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso, Lobsang Jinba who moved to Shigatse, also wrote to Hu Zhigong and Guan Siqiu, requesting that the guru be allowed to stay there.

In the Snowy Land, he continues to save all sentient beings. His 10,000 men are all adapted from the old Lhasa Army and can be regarded as the great monk’s old tribe.

After receiving Luosang Jinba's letter, Hu Zhigong sneered and ordered Peng Mingyang, the chief general of the Ming army stationed in Shigatse, to be more vigilant and monitor Luosang Jinba closely. He also ordered the commander-in-chief Ma Ning to lead 6,000 elite cavalry and rush to the city day and night.

Shigatse. Secretly ordered the two generals, Luosang Jinba, to annihilate them on the spot if they make any unusual move.

Subsequently, the governor ordered Zhou Shimin and General Gekasa at the foot of Maburi Mountain to continue to put pressure on the master on the mountain.

Zhou Shimin understood this and instigated his subordinates to provoke the protective believers on the mountain. A small-scale fight broke out between the two sides. One Ming soldier was killed and dozens of believers were killed.

Zhou Zongbing is considered gentle. After all, he is nicknamed "Zhou Daxia" and has a chivalrous heart. It is really difficult for him to lead heavily armed soldiers to suppress the herdsmen who have not received formal training.

General Gekasa was not so kind. He was a surrendered general from Shigatse. The Shigatse army and the Lhasa army fought many battles because of the dispute over Tiba. The two sides had a deep hatred. After defecting to the Ming Dynasty, they wanted to join the new master.

He behaved well in front of him. So, he really fought.

On November 6, the seventh year of the reign of Emperor Guangwu of the Ming Dynasty, the Maburi Mountain Massacre occurred.

Shigatse's surrendered general Gekasa stormed the believers' camp on the mountainside. He was a fierce general, armed with an eighty-pound hammer and was unstoppable. His 10,000 Shigatse troops had also experienced battles, so it was natural to defeat some rabble.

In less than an hour, they captured the mountainside camp and massacred more than 5,000 believers with less than a hundred casualties.

Countless believers fled to the top of the mountain in panic.

Gekasa lost his temper and wanted to continue attacking the mountain, but was stopped by Zhou Shimin, "General, wait a minute, the military governor's order is for us to exert pressure, but we can't kill them all."

"Hey!"

Gekasa threw the heavy and bloody hammers into the ground, "It's hard for us to predict Governor Xian's thoughts! It's hard for a general to listen to you if you let us hit you but don't hit us too hard."

??

Hu Zhigong, Wang Jiezhi, and Guan Siqiu came to Maburi Mountain.

Seeing the dead bodies all over the mountain, Wang Jiezhi, the governor of Usuzang, was a little dissatisfied. He glared at Zhou Shimin and Gekasa and said, "The two generals are officials of the imperial court. They should kill less and care more for the people."

The second general did not dare to bite his tongue and said "yes".

Hu Zhigong smiled, "Although you two have killed more people, the pressure is enough."

Guan Siqiu asked: "Hu Duxian, what do you mean?"

"Yes, after forcing someone to use force, it's time to show affection." Hu Zhigong stroked his long beard with his hands, and he was confident. "This governor will personally go to the mountain to persuade Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso to go to Nanjing."

As soon as this statement came out, even Hu Zhigong's political opponents couldn't say it.

Guan Siqiu said: "Du Xian, our army has killed so many of them. If you go there in person, I am afraid that Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso will be disadvantageous to you."

"It doesn't matter. How can a person like him care about the life and death of thousands of ants? If you don't enter the tiger's den, how can you catch the tiger's cubs? You wait for me on the mountainside. If I don't come back, then attack up the mountain. Chicken.

"The dog will not be left alone".

Such a good Hu Duxian, he only took a few dozen followers with him and walked up the mountain calmly.

Hearing that an old acquaintance had arrived, Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso sneered repeatedly and ordered to "ceremoniously welcome" Governor Hu.

It was very "grand". In front of the East Hall, there were rows of swordsmen and axe-hands holding their swords. Governor Hu was asked to pass under the blade of the sword. This was called: going up the mountain of swords.

A large pot was set up in the hall, with dry wood burning on the bottom and hot water boiling. When the water boiled, it was steaming. This is called: going into the sea of ​​fire.

"Ha~ha~ha~"

Hu Zhigong laughed loudly, and his tone was indescribably relaxed, "Master holds such a big pot, does he want to cook camel meat for me to eat?"

"Huh, this cauldron is specially designed for you." Ngawang Losang Gyatso stared at Hu Zhigong with a cold look in his eyes. The enemy was extremely jealous when he saw him.

"You are an eminent monk, so please don't get angry, which will harm your practice."

"It doesn't matter, King Kong also has an angry look, and Buddhism also has a lion's roar. It kills demons and eliminates demons, and it has immeasurable merits."

Hu Zhigong was delighted when he heard this, "Oh, Master, Yu Te came to save you and thousands of other believers in the Snow Land. Why do you think Yu is a demon?"

Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso was extremely angry, "Save me? Who doesn't know that you are the most vicious? It's all thanks to you that I am today. How dare you say save me?"

"I dare to ask Master, if you compare with the Holy Master, who is better in terms of culture, Taoism and martial arts? Compared with the Ming Dynasty in Snowland, who is better in military, horse and transportation?"

Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso was stunned and sighed for a long time: "Nothing is as good as this".

"Hold on!"

Hu Zhigong leaned down and said: "Since you know that it is worse, wouldn't it be unwise to hit an egg against a stone? Your Majesty also appoints you as the Imperial Advisor of the Ming Dynasty. What an honor it is! If you accept it, it will not only save the snowy region from the disaster of swords and soldiers;

Wouldn't it be nice to let the influence of the Holy Religion go out of the snowy areas and enter the Central Plains?"

Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso was a little tempted, but also a little worried, and sarcastically said: "Duke Xian has a good tongue. I have learned from him many times, but I really can't believe it."

Even though Hu Zhigong's face was thicker than the city wall, he rarely blushed for a moment after hearing this, "Master, why don't you first see Yu's sincerity before speaking? Come and bring Yu's 'sincerity' with you."
p>

The entourage brought "sincerity". They were two people: a young woman and a six-year-old boy.

Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso looked at these two people and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Bu Chi Jia Mao, Sang Jie Gyatso, weren't you burned to death by the Ming army?"

Hu Zhigong smiled, "How? Is the sincerity I have brought to the master enough? As long as the master agrees to go to Nanjing to lecture for His Majesty, I can ask Mrs. Buchijiamao and the young master Sangjie Gyatso to accompany them and let them worship.

As a teacher, wouldn’t it be good for you to practice Buddhism day and night?”

How can people not bow their heads when they are under the eaves!

After a lot of beatings, coaxing and deception, Hu Zhigong successfully transferred Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso, a fierce tiger, to Nanjing.
