Vol 4 Chapter 2394: Fight in troubled times


The puppeter smiled slightly: "It is precisely because of the horse king that he can more rationally consider the gains and losses of the interests. Nanyang is beyond the reach of the Qin Dynasty. Now Liu Yu pays his respects and seizes them. It’s good to take the initiative to give it away, but Yao Xing can’t directly convince those simple-minded, superstitious and violent subordinates, so he had to borrow your words to convince others. You know what you should say tomorrow."
Kumarajiva said in a deep voice: "Lao Na doesn't know much about military affairs, but based on what you have always done as a donor, Lao Na doesn't believe there will be any good things. You two want to win Nanyang Twelve County without a fight. I’m afraid that the next step is to enter the original Luoyang or even Guanzhong Chang’an in the picture. When the war will rise again, the common people’s suffering will be Lao Na’s sin."
Dou Pengke smiled and waved his hand: "Monk, you really don’t understand military affairs. The land of Nanyang is a thousand miles away from Guanzhong, the core area of ​​the Hou Qin. If it’s from Guanzhong to Nanyang, it’s difficult to travel. It’s even more troublesome. If the army is stationed outside, if the food and grass needed to be supplied from Guanzhong will be unsupportable over time. Yao Xing no longer wants to maintain the garrison in Nanyang. Liu Yu has spotted this and took the initiative. Give some food and grass and stop receiving people in exchange for this place."
Kumarajiva said coldly: "If the world’s officials and generals can keep their duties and there is no war, then it will naturally be able to relieve the suffering of the world’s people hanging upside down. For this? Whether it is Yao Xing or Liu Yu, they are just people who want to achieve their hegemony and ambitions. For this ambition, I don’t hesitate to drive the people all over the world to fight like beasts. I have no affection for any of them. , And has no intention of intervening in the dispute between them."
The Dou Pengke sneered and said: "It sounds good, you monks, these temples, do not produce, rely on the incense of the people, and live on the venues allocated by the state. At least Yao Xing and Liu Yu, the powerful people in their hands, want Advise the mulberry class, let the people under your control organize production, produce rice grains, silk and silk, to support parasites like you. If you translate the Buddhist scriptures, can you let the sky fall to eat and drink to meet the needs of the people? ?"
Kumarajiva's face changed slightly: "We are monks, and monks are naturally not bound by the world. Is this also wrong?"
The captain laughed and pointed to an empty bowl on the small table in front of Kumarajiva with a few remnants of porridge and rice on it. He said in a deep voice, "Yes, monks, but are monks? Don’t eat and drink Lhasa? Did the rice you eat and the monk robes you wear fell from the sky? The land cultivated by all the people in the world is divided by the state, and the taxes paid are also the price of the land. What reason do you have for not giving these things? Others need to work and pay taxes, but you monks and Taoists can make exceptions?"
Kumarajiva bit his lip: "All the kings in the world, from Tianzhu to the Western Regions, to the Central Plains, treat us monks in this way, because we can cross the world, give hope to the suffering people and make them believe in this life. In this world, you can accumulate virtue and do good, so don’t do evil, otherwise you will go to and suffer. In this way, there will be fewer people who scream and gather in the mountains and forests and gather people to cause chaos. If it were not for our reasons to reduce these rebellions, how could the kings give Our conditions?"
The captain sneered and said: "Making up such a big lie, deceiving people in the afterlife, having karma, compiling so that you can even believe it, giving people that kind of illusory hope, but can't give any benefit, even to stupid women. Selling children and women, in exchange for the poor money, you still need to make incense, monks, monks, compared to the cruelest tyrant in the world, you have nothing worse. In order to feed the idlers in your monastery who are not productive. It takes countless people’s blood and sweat. Don’t think that Yao Xing is still polite to you. It’s because you haven’t consumed too much of his population. If Buddhist temples like Tianzhu and the Western Regions are popular, a large number of people don’t work hard. Monk, in the end, the country is struggling to make ends meet. No one is farming and all want to work for the monk. When that day comes, I see who else will feed you!"
Kumarajiva was trembling with anger: "Nonsense, nonsense, we are pursuing sentient beings for the sake of the Buddha, but we are so unbearable to tell you that the country, the country can raise hundreds of thousands of soldiers, and can fight and kill people and slaughter the city, why can't we? How many monasteries will be built to raise tens of thousands of monks and transcend all beings?"
The captain said coldly: "The country raises its troops either to capture more territories, or to protect the existing territories from encroachment. To put it bluntly, it is to protect the production of the people, just like yours? In this country, in Houliang, you are a great teacher of the country. In order to provide you the living Buddha, the whole temple is tax-free, and there are hundreds of monks who do not produce. But as a result, the enemy country comes, you protect the country, you Have you protected the people? Faced with Lu Guang’s butcher knife, you can actually watch the tens of thousands of people in the city slaughter people like this in order to become a Buddha without breaking the precepts. Just like you, you are embarrassed to say that you can transform the world. ?"
Kumarajiva bit his lip tightly, closed his eyes, just chanted the scriptures, and ignored the man.
The punter also felt a little dull~EbookFREE.me~ and sighed: "No matter, you have your creed, and I have my plan. I only believe that only by ending troubled times and peace forever can we avoid these human problems. Suffering, rather than deceiving yourself like you. This request from Nanyang Twelfth County is a request to avoid war without bleeding. It also conforms to your philosophy of saving the common people. It is a rare consensus between you and me."
Kumarajiva said in a deep voice: "The two powers bordering directly on this way, Liu Yu won twelve counties without a fight. His power was soaring and his power further strengthened. In the future, he will definitely stimulate his ambitions and launch more wars. The territories obtained through the hard fight give people their hands. The generals are not convinced, and they will definitely try their best to recapture them. Yao Xing is kind and ambitious in nature. He hopes to dominate the world, including his previous abandonment. He is by no means peace-loving. It’s because of the lack of troops and the inability to stay in Liangzhou for a long time, so he moved all the people in the city to enrich the Guanzhong. Based on what he did in Liangzhou, this time in Nanyang, he will definitely move all the Han people. I don’t know by then. How many wives are separated, husbands and wives parting, such a human tragedy, you actually told me that it is a good thing?
The captain said coldly: "It's better than fighting a war and bleeding thousands of miles. You also know Liu Yu's personality. It is inevitable to pay courtesy first and then soldiers. If Yao Xing doesn't give it, he will grab it. You are good. My friend, Buddhist master Shi Daoan, wasn’t it that Fu Jian captured Xiangyang and moved to Chang’an forcibly? If Liu Yu really learned from Fu Jian and went to Nanyang first and then took Guanzhong, would you also prepare to move to build Kangkang?"
