The black robe smiled slightly: "There is a question of degree here. Not all the people have to pay for their sins with death. In many cases, it is the king who needs to pay off the debt and clear the karma, but suffers the innocent people. At this time, The Buddha has to be merciful and save the world. This is the so-called Purdue sentient beings. The propaganda this time can be said to be because of Liu Yu's crimes that attracted heaven's punishment, and sent demons like Tianshidao to revenge Liu Yu Yu, but the people are innocent, why should the common people suffer? The Buddha couldn’t bear to see them die in vain, so he sent the post-Qin army to rescue them, and hoped that after they were saved, they would become enlightened, and from then on, they would take refuge in my Buddha and do good deeds.”

Yu Yue laughed: "This explanation seems a bit far-fetched. The people of Dajin were rescued by Liu Yu before, so is Liu Yu good or bad? He used to be the savior of the people of Dajin, but now he has become a big villain , How do the people understand this?"

The black robe said calmly: "Doing good and evil is all in one thought. Liu Yu used to make contributions to the country and benefit the world. There is no need to deny this, but later he did it for his own greed and desire for merit. He has committed a lot of evil things, not only his own family was ruined, his wife and friends were separated, but also the people suffered and suffered, and they encountered military disasters. The way of the heavenly master is karma. The devil who was let go by him came back and continued to take revenge on him. This was analyzed before. It’s over. And Liu Yu also suffered retribution for slaughtering the soldiers and civilians of Nanyan and exterminating his wife’s family members. The whole army got plague and could not fight. At this time, only the Buddha can save the people, not Liu Yu.”

Yu Yue nodded: "So that's the case. Such an analysis is simply impeccable. However, Liu Yu's theory that everyone is equal and meritorious service is not something that can make people give up once or twice. Although Buddhist theory is good, it cannot make people rich or honored, at least in this life, it cannot make people live a relaxed and happy life, and if only relying on the blessing of the Buddha once, I am afraid that they will not be able to defeat Liu Yu."

The black robe smiled slightly: "Step by step, don't rush, let the Buddha appear first, if the Qin army can defeat the Heavenly Master, and let Buddhism spread in the south, it will not only save the people this time

There will be many benefits in the future. Everyone is equal in Liu Yu's set,

There is hope of getting rich through military exploits, but it also greatly increases the risk of dying after enlisting in the army. After all, the soldiers are fierce and dangerous, and if one is not paying attention, even the corpses will not be able to return. This time the attack on Nanyan was successful in destroying the country, but tens of thousands of soldiers died in battle and disease. As their family members, they will Happy or sad? "

Yu Yue sighed: "It has always been like this. Out of a hundred people who went to the battlefield, only twenty or thirty people can come back alive, and there are only a few people who return to their hometowns with wealth. How about it? During the Taiping period, who wanted to join the army and fight? The Qin State’s previous military merit system, which counted meritorious service by killing people and taking their heads, has long been regarded as a barbaric and brutal act, and it is spurned by scholars. This is why. However, relying on the righteous name of the Northern Expedition, Liu Yu turned such an act into an act of justice, which is also miraculous."

Hei Pao nodded and said, "Yes, so Liu Yu is coaxing the people to join the army to serve the country, go to battle and kill people, and he will also bear huge risks. Although there have been constant wars before, Jingkou is a folk custom and martial arts, and I also think about it." The meritorious service of the Northern Expedition is also to avenge the ancestors who died in the previous Northern Expedition. Therefore, Jingkou people can bear such casualties. After all, it is a place where white flags can be everywhere in one Northern Expedition. But Jingkou can bear this kind of casualties, and other places may not Just like the tenants and tenants of your Wudi Manor, Sima Yuanxian asked them to join the army as happy family members, and they would rather rebel than respond.”

Yu Yue laughed: "Because many of the tenants in our manor in Wudi were weaker people among the refugees who went south, or those who were injured and disabled on the way south, and could not continue to join the army. They were brought into the manor to work as farmers. Many of them were terrified by the Hu people who were chasing them all the way. The feeling of being chased and killed was so terrible that even after decades, their descendants In the book, the stories I still heard when I was a child were how barbaric and invincible these barbarians were.”

"Many people from Jingkou were strong men who were able to fight against the Hu people under the leadership of the vagrant commander when they went south, and reached the south of the Yangtze River on a large scale. different people, but the sharecroppers of Wudi Manor

, are the descendants of cowards and weaklings, who are afraid of war and don't want to go to the battlefield. No life to enjoy. "

Speaking of this, Yu Yue paused, and thoughtfully said to herself: "Actually, during the Battle of Feishui last time, the Xie family once came forward to form an army, and promised that the Xie family in Wudi and other villages in the manors of other aristocratic families would Ladies and gentlemen, if you join the army to serve the country this time~www.readwn.com~, you will not only be exempted from being a slave when you come back, but you will also be given land. Being knighted, this makes these farmers and tenants actively join the army for the first time in decades, and they all think that they can turn around and win wealth and fame."

"But they didn't expect that although they won the Battle of Feishui, they continued to follow the army to the Northern Expedition, but it was true that the Long March did not return, especially the fire at Wuqiaoze, which almost destroyed the elite of the Beifu Army. , In the subsequent retreat process, people chased and killed them all the way. Those who came back were all out of ten. Even those who came back alive were unable to repay the credit because of failure. In the end, the Xie family could only share a little bit. Giving them fields in return is far from what everyone expected when they joined the army!"

"So since then, no one has ever believed in anyone who promised the benefits of the Northern Expedition. As soon as Sima Yuanxian issued the conscription order, although he didn't really want the Northern Expedition at all, he took the opportunity to organize his own army to fight against the aristocratic family. It’s just like Huanxuan, but once the conscription order came out, it backfired, and when they heard about the Northern Expedition, these Wu people simply turned against it!”

The black robe laughed: "It's called cleverness being misunderstood by cleverness. Sima Yuanxian is just a little prince who has no experience in the world and doesn't know the sufferings of the bottom. On the contrary, I think that Liu Yu was able to organize the Northern Expedition under such circumstances, and really succeeded in destroying the country, which is much more difficult than I originally imagined."
