Following Qin Hao's order, the armies of Luoyang, Yewang, Chaoge and Hedong were mobilized, and all roads were completely blocked. This shocked both Wang Mang and Yang Lin.
.
Especially Wang Mang. After all, he had just suffered a major defeat. Now he was not only beleaguered internally and externally, but his military power was also extremely weak.
Wang Mang thought that Qin Hao, seeing his defeat, wanted to concentrate his efforts on dealing with the Union Army first, or that he had some other conspiracy, but unexpectedly, news came that shocked him even more.
Qin Hao actually wants to destroy all the Buddhist temples under his command except Baima and Shaolin. This is destroying Buddhism!
Although Buddhism is a foreign school, after a hundred years of development, it has completely taken root in the Han Dynasty. It has now become one of the hundreds of schools of thought and is inextricably linked to each school.
Baijia is the deepest, darkest and most powerful force hidden by the Han Dynasty. No one has ever dared to attack Baijia, not even Zhang Jiao and Dong Zhuo, but now Qin Hao has become the number one
A prince who provokes hundreds of families.
In this regard, Wang Mang just wanted to say, what a fucking beautiful job.
Not long after Wang Mang traveled to this world, he already knew the dangers of hundreds of schools of thought. After all, even people like Zhang Jiao and Dong Zhuo were just pawns in the game of hundreds of schools of thought. So how could other princes be spared?
Although Wang Mang is not yet a prince, he also knows that the dignity of princes cannot be challenged. After all, they are the most powerful people in the world, but hundreds of families dare to use this group of people as pawns in the game. This is also intolerable to all.
.
Therefore, in Wang Mang's view, the princes and the hundreds of families are almost naturally on opposite sides. It is only because of the troubled times that they have to temporarily cooperate. Once the world is reunified in the future, whether it is Qin Hao, Zhu Yuanzhang, Li Shimin, or Wang Mang, they will definitely
All families took action.
Although an emperor can tolerate the literary and Taoist theories of hundreds of schools, he cannot tolerate the threat of martial arts from hundreds of schools of thought.
Wang Mang originally thought that he would have to wait until the world was reunited before anyone would dare to take action against the Hundreds of Families, but he did not expect that Qin Hao would take action now, and he was still at war with him.
Wang Mang couldn't help but admire Qin Hao's courage. After all, Qin Hao couldn't be unaware of the chain impact of dealing with Buddhism, but even so, he still took action against Buddhism, and this can only explain two points:
1. Qin Hao already has the capital to not be afraid of hundreds of companies;
2. Qin Hao didn’t take himself seriously at all;
Although Wang Mang felt a little upset about this, he soon became indifferent. After all, he also hoped that Qin Hao would despise him. Otherwise, once Qin Hao concentrated on dealing with him, Ade's situation would be even more difficult.
"Even if he faces hundreds of families, Qin Hao can beat him without fail. It's good to have strength."
Wang Mang couldn't help but sigh. If he had the strength that Qin Hao had, he would also dare to do such a feat as destroying the Buddha. After all, most Buddhist temples are rich and well-oiled. It's a pity that he is so far away from Qin Hao.
The level is still far from enough.
"Five thousand elite troops came out of Luoyang, destroyed 18 Buddhist temples in two days, and liberated nearly 20,000 people. In addition to Pei Yuanqing, the leaders also included Gao Chong and Tan Daoji..."
Wang Mang said sourly, feeling extremely envious of Qin Hao in his heart.
I think Wang Mang tried his best but failed to convince a senior commander, so he humbly asked for help, so he borrowed two commanders, Chen Qingzhi and Chen Baxian.
But Qin Hao asked senior commanders like Tan Daoji and top generals like Gao Chong to lead troops to destroy Buddhist temples?
What a waste!
Wang Mang condemned Qin Hao's behavior of overachieving and underestimating talents in the strongest possible way. However, what he didn't know was that the resistance of the Buddhists was not weak. It was precisely because of the existence of Gao Chong and Pei Yuanqing that the Qin army did not suffer huge losses.
The Buddhists were naturally extremely angry and frightened by Qin Hao's act of destroying the Buddha. Only when the army pressed on the border did they realize how powerless they were in the face of the army, but they would be captured without a watch.
Under the command of Tan Daoji's military formation, although ordinary Buddhist disciples had little power to fight back, the masters were not so easy to deal with.
During the process of destroying the Buddha this time, Tan Daoji met more than one master. It was precisely because of the presence of Gao Chong and Pei Yuanqing that he was able to avert danger.
With the cooperation of the arrow array arranged by Tan Daoji, Gao Chong even killed an unknown monk who was at the level of a half-step grand master. This was also the most powerful Buddhist monk who had fallen so far.
"How on earth did the Buddhist family offend Qin Hao and provoke such violent retaliation?"
This is what Wang Mang couldn't figure out the most. After all, compared to other hundreds of schools, Buddhism is relatively honest and does not interfere too deeply with the feudal princes' struggle for hegemony. So why did Qin Hao want to destroy Buddhism?
Even if Wang Mang tried hard, he probably wouldn't have imagined that the information he passed on to the Taoists would be handed over to the Buddhists by the Taoists. It was because of rescuing Li Shimin that the Buddhists were angered by Qin Hao and suffered such a disaster.
"No matter why, Qin Hao's move to destroy the Buddha this time will definitely cause a lot of dissatisfaction, and if I operate it properly, I may not take advantage of this to profit from it."
When he thought of this, Wang Mang's eyes suddenly lit up, and the man in black beside him said calmly: "We are going to hold a martial arts conference to condemn Qin Hao's act of destroying the Buddha. You should immediately send people to spread the news to all states as quickly as possible.
The bigger the momentum, the better.”
"promise."
After the man in black left, Wang Mang's eyes flashed, and he chuckled and said to himself: "Maybe we can recruit a lot of experts this time."

Songshan, Shaolin Temple.
As news of Buddhist temples being razed by the Qin army continued to spread, the monks in the Shaolin Temple were angry and frightened.
The angry thing is that Patriarch Bodhidharma once helped Qin Hao, but Qin Hao raised the butcher's knife against Buddhism. This is simply ungrateful and repaying kindness with hatred;
The fear is that once the Qin army arrives at the foot of the mountain, Shaolin Temple may also face the fate of destruction. What will I do then?
In troubled times, it is not easy to have a peaceful place to live. The monks in Shaolin Temple are full of attachment to Shaolin, so naturally they do not want Shaolin to be razed by the army.
"Abbott, we can't sit still and wait for death."
"Yes, Abbot, if this continues, we may not be able to resist even if we want to."
Hundreds of monks armed with sticks spoke passionately to Abbot Xuanci. Although Abbot Xuanci tried his best to dissuade him, he still could not suppress the angry monks.
Seeing this, Xu Zhu couldn't help but frown slightly, and then his anger dropped from his Dantian, and he gave a 'lion's roar' towards the monks. Although everyone was shaken to their knees, they were all calmer and not as angry as before.
