Chapter 901 Buddhist disciples all over the world unite 3

A three-foqi whistleboat slowly sailed into the mouth of the Badang River and stopped at a pier in the crowded and prosperous market.

The springboard was put up, and the old man Liang Youwen first got off the slender whistle boat. Then he turned around and gave a Buddhist ceremony to the great monk Yuanjue, who was sitting cross-legged in the whistle boat with a smile on his face. He pointed to a group of people wearing colorful silk clothes standing on the dock and said, "Master, please get off the boat. The great appearance of the Three Buddhas and Qi Kingdom is there. He came here to reward the soldiers of the Heavenly Kingdom with the will of the Buddha King of the Three Buddhas and Qi Kingdom."

Master Yuanjue just responded, carried the boat with both hands, stood up with force, and then swaggered to the dock through the springboard.

The group of people wearing colorful silk clothes saw that Monk Yuanjue got off the boat and came forward one after another. The first one was an old man wearing a scarlet Song Dynasty military officer uniform, but he did not look like a Han person, but a local Malay You people from Sanfoqi.

If he was a serious envoy of the Song Dynasty, when he saw this outfit, he would know that the old man must have been on the Song Dynasty and received a gift in the Song Dynasty. He was considered a "honored official" of the Song Dynasty. But how could Yuanjue know this? So he asked Liang Youwen beside him: "Old man Liang, the family asked you, who is the man wearing the Song Dynasty official robe?"

Liang You asked, "Master, that noble man is the Daxiang leather socks of the Three Buddhas, and he is also General Huaiyuan of the Song Dynasty."

"Oh? How could the great appearance of the Three Buddhas be an official from the Song Dynasty?"

Yuanjue's words were a bit exposed.

But it doesn't matter if he is an envoy is not real, the fleet outside the Badang River estuary cannot be faked! Moreover, the Pu family's warships have not appeared yet, so they probably do not exist.

Liang Youwen explained, "The Daxiang of Leather Socks was awarded the title of General Huaiyuan during the Yuanyou period."

General Huaiyuan was a fifth-rank military official. In the extremely chaotic official system of the Song Dynasty, the civil servants existed as civil servants. However, the military servants were not rank officials of military officers, but were only occasionally granted to officials and foreign envoys.

"So that's it." Master Yuanjue responded, but still couldn't figure out what level he was, a monk in the Song Dynasty, even his own official, not to mention the unusual martial arts official.

But it doesn't matter if he can't figure it out. Anyway, he is here to ask for money, so he doesn't care about the others.

...

"Only give 200,000 taels of gold? This is too little, right? Your king is really a Buddhist disciple? Why is his heart so dishonest? If you cannot go to the bright world after death, you will go to the dark hell!"

In the magnificent Jinta Futu Temple, the monk Yuanjue is using the dark hell of Manichi to scare the great appearance of leather socks that believe in Tantric Buddhism.

I went to the Song Dynasty twice, stayed in the Song Dynasty for more than three years, and was also kind to many Song merchants in the Three Buddhas and were proficient in Chinese.

But he still couldn't understand what happened to the "Light World" and "Dark Hell"?

But it doesn’t matter if you don’t understand. He still understands the other party’s meaning of the money!

"Master, 200,000 taels of gold are already a lot!" The leather socks looked sore. King Dobila gave him a quota of 250,000 taels of gold. He had to get a commission of 50,000 taels, and the remaining one was only 200,000 taels. If you add it, the commission would be less...

"Yes, 200,000 taels of gold is equivalent to 2 million taels of silver, which is converted into copper coins, and there are 3 million shreds."

Liang Youwen was helping him talk to him in the past few days, and he had already found out that the Song Dynasty had just come from the Song Dynasty to inquire about the situation. Finally, he knew that the Song Dynasty had been a bit chaotic in recent years. He was a tyrant in charge of the military and military force outside, but was a less literary and business inside, and he valued business. He also used a group of unscrupulous merchants. He also abandoned the Confucian path passed down by his ancestors, and created the "Personal Theory" and "Reason Theory"... In short, the chaos of the faction of the country's demise!

I guess this farce of "defending the holy land of Buddhism" was also caused by those foolish monarchs and treacherous ministers!

The matter of asking for 500,000 taels of gold was mostly just a vote of officials from the expedition army who had divided the money privately (it was really guessed by Liang Youwen). It was really a corrupt official who had become an international official.

"Too little, too little..." Master Yuanjue's head was shaking like a rattle. This time, there were more than 10,000 soldiers and officials in the mission, and 200,000 taels of gold were not enough to divide!

"At least 250,000!" Yuan Jue said, "and these 250,000 taels are gold, so other things are calculated."

250,000 taels? Then I won’t be greedy?

The leather socks opened their face bitterly. Yuanjue comforted him and said, "Great appearance, money is something outside the body! Didn't your king say that he became a monk? The four elements of monks are empty, so why do you need so much money? Why don't you take out the achievements to support my Buddha and help the Buddha light overcome the darkness! This is a great merit!"

The Buddha's light defeats the darkness? Why does it sound so twisted? What sutra is this monk chanting?

"And, these 250,000 taels of gold are not for nothing." Monk Yuanjue continued to fool him.

Although he was born with Kong Wu as powerful as his strength, he thought he was a demon demon who made a living by relying on strength, in fact, he was a religious leader and lived by preaching and preaching. His ability was just on his mouth.

Yuanjue said: "Now the Pu family's fleet is over. There are Java in the east and Zhuluo in the west. They are all Brahmins and outspokens. And they are all eyeing the Three Buddhas and Qi! Without the protection of the Song Dynasty, can your Three Buddhas and Qi always occupy the waterways between the West and the South Ocean?"

"But the Song Dynasty is so far away from the Three Buddhas, how could it be possible to protect the Three Buddhas and Qi Kingdom?"

Yuan Jue smiled and said, "Actually, it's not too far. It's only five or six thousand miles from Guangzhou to Sanfoqi. If you have a good wind, you can travel thousands of miles a day and a night, and you can reach it in just a few days."

"But there are only a few months of a year when north winds are common, and when north winds blow, there are few south winds to borrow, so it is not easy to go north." said Se Socks, "If there is a change in the South Ocean at this time, how can the Song Dynasty know?"

Liang Youwen, who was acting as a staff member of the leather socks, also added: "Even if the news is sent to Guangzhou, Guangzhou cannot send troops. You have to go to Beijing to know about the emperor before you can arrange the issue of troops. What happened here and there, one year or two years have passed."

The original system of the Song Dynasty was to rule the army from the mainland, and the local military power was very small, so it was very unfavorable for the reactionary cause of colonialism. It was a dream to rule the army from the mainland through the ocean thousands or even tens of thousands of miles.

"It is no longer as good as before," Yuan Jue said, "Since the Emperor of the Song Dynasty has decided to send troops to India to save the Buddhist holy land, we will naturally delegate power. Now the court has established a coastal market system, which is fully responsible for offshore affairs and rescue of the Polo Kingdom.

The one who defeated the Pu family's pirates this time was the warship fleet of the Coastal Maritime Control Department! In addition to forming a warship fleet, the Coastal Maritime Control Department also has the right to start the patrol department on the coast as a yamen to control the warship fleet. If the Three Buddhas and Qi Kingdom are willing to fight with our dynasty for the survival of the Buddhist holy land, then the two countries will naturally be allies, and our dynasty will set up a patrol department on Puluo Zhongdao and arrange a fleet."

This is asking Puluo Zhongdao as the "concession". However, Ji Yi's fraudulent method was so sophisticated that he came up with a name to form a Buddhist alliance to save the Buddhist holy land of India. At this time, Southeast Asia was influenced by India except Annan. Buddhism and Brahmins competed among the countries of Southeast Asia (excluding Annan).

Among them, the three Buddhas and Bagan (Myanmar), and the Brahmanism were the Zhenla Empire and Java under the rule of the Angkor Dynasty.

The four major regional powers of Sanfoqi, Bagan, Zhenla and Java were also influenced by extraterritorial countries. Annan and Zhenla, which belong to the Confucian circle, had been hostile for a long time, fighting for the city-occupying state, thus restraining the expansion of Zhenla to the south and west.

The Juluo Kingdom in the Indian Circle formed an alliance with the Java Kingdom and fought with the Three Buddhas and Qi Kingdom for a hundred years to compete for the rule of the Three Buddhas and Qi Strait. At the same time, it was hostile to the Bagan Dynasty and the Indian Polo Dynasty, which occupied the Buddhist holy land, the Juluo Kingdom dreamed of turning the Bay of Bengal into its own inner lake, not only attacking the Three Buddhas across the sea, but also attacking the three Buddhist countries, the Polo Dynasty, the Bagan Dynasty, and Ceylon.

The Polo dynasty, the Bagan dynasty, Ceylon and the Three Foqi have always been in contact, and sometimes they will fight with the Juluo Kingdom, and there are marriages between the four countries.

Therefore, Ji Yi, who is more familiar with the situation in Nanyang, wanted to piece together a Buddhist alliance to save the Buddhist holy land protected by the Polo dynasty. It is actually a name. Using this name makes it reasonable to make the Song Dynasty's intervention in Nanyang and it is easy to win the support of Buddhist monks in Nanyang.

After all, the power of the Song Dynasty to invest in the Southeast Asian countries was limited, and there was no absolute strength to crush various countries. In this case, it was necessary to pull one faction to fight another.

Of course, while forming a Buddhist alliance in the Song Dynasty, it did not mean that one had to turn against the Tianfang Sect and Brahmin Sect to start a war.

Ji Yi proposed the slogan "Save the Buddhist Holy Land", not to recover the "Buddhist Holy Land". Now the Polo Kingdom is about to perish before it is about to perish. The Kaseni Dynasty, which invaded the northwest India, itself fell into a disintegration and had no power to conquer the Buddhist holy land Nalanda Monastery.

So he just wanted to unite the Polo, Bagan, Ceylon and the Three Buddhas around the Song Dynasty in the name of "save the holy land of Buddhism" to form a Buddhist alliance to control the trade routes between the South and the West.

"Master means," Daxiang of the leather socks already realized something was wrong, "The navy of the Song Dynasty will be permanently stationed in Puluo Zhongdao in the future?"

"The army is expeditioning to India. The journey is long and the storm is difficult to predict. It always needs a place to settle down." Yuan Jue said, "If the army enters Mo Luoyu, it will inevitably cause trouble, which is very inconvenient, so I want to station in this barbaric island in Puluo. I think the king and Da Xiang will not object, right?"

"Then how long do you need to stay?" asked Leather Socks.
