Chapter 5 The Light of the Living Buddha

"This is an immortal achievement for all eternity!"

Duan Guoren looked at the mountain and felt a little moved.

"Whoever dies first will go up first."

"After I die, I seal my body in to strengthen my soul."

Several people pointed at the mountain and seemed to have forgotten about it, but Yun Zhao knew that they were all looking forward to it.

These people can do not have money or fame and fortune during their lifetime, but they must have fame after their lives. Whether it is written in history books or engraved on stones, this is the only thing they can talk about.

The reason why Zhang Guozhu rushed back from Lantian City so late was that he walked through the grassland to visit Sun Guoxin, the great lama who preached and spread the gospel on the grassland.

Now, Sun Guoxin's believers have spread to the grasslands and deserts. After the grassland tribes he appeased, they no longer panic or suffer. They seem to have new life goals and no longer continue to move north.

"There should be herders on the snow-capped mountains and grasslands!"

This is the core of Sun Guoxin’s doctrine.

"The herdsmen only care about the pastures, cattle and sheep, children, and the eagles in the sky!"

This is the basis of Sun Guoxin's missionary.

"We are willing to offer gifts to the strong, but the strong will love us after receiving our gifts!"

This is the reconciliation message conveyed by Sun Guoxin to the grassland tribes.

"Our sky is big enough to have countless gods. You believe in your gods, and I believe in my gods. Gods never ask people to sacrifice him, but only ask people to trust him."

This is where Sun Guoxin seeks a place for all religions.

"The state ruled my flesh, and my soul belonged to the gods."

This is how Sun Guoxin spreads the concept of state among his believers.

"No matter how abuse my body is, my soul will eventually fly over the white clouds."

This is how Sun Guoxin teaches herders to endure in his doctrine.

"I came to the world to suffer, and this does not prevent me from enjoying the world."

This is Sun Guoxin comforting the believers.

"A sword is an ominous thing. I will only use it to deal with wild beasts in my life. When I meet people, my knife will move forward."

This is Sun Guo’s signal to summon herders to give up resistance and open his arms to embrace every kind person.

These teachings have been followed by many shepherds, who ventured slowly toward the south from the bitter and cold north. This time, they gave up on fighting and resistance.

When they met the army at the border of Lantian County, they just sat there quietly, not resisting or speaking, and of course, they were unwilling to leave.

This is the situation that Pei Lin, a centurion at the Yidu Post.

More than 200 Mongolian herders drove their few cattle and sheep to Yidu.

The group of people did not escape or organized a battle when facing the Lantian border army riding horses. Under the organization of an elderly shepherd, they sat together, holding their knees and chanting, "No matter how abuse my body is, my soul will eventually fly over the white clouds."

The cattle and sheep are so thin that they are extremely thin, and the camel's hump is also shriveled. As for people, they are even more miserable and cannot be seen.

Women and children with felt hair are still very scared, and they don’t know what future they will face.

One hundred cavalry surrounded these people, but did not launch an attack. Centurion Pei Lin said to his deputy Hou Jun: "Your life is here."

Hou Jun sighed and said, "It's so easy to kill."

Pei Lin said: "Killing is a waste of time, but in such a large grassland, we can't be the only one hundred of us, right?

Since General Gao fought with Jiannu, our army has left and Jiannu's army has also left. Judging from this, our army will not come back and Jiannu should not come.

It is not a long-term solution that only our brothers are stationed here within a radius of three hundred miles."

Hou Jun said: "Didn't you say you want to migrate the people in the mainland?"

Pei Lin sat down and raised his legs and kicked Hou Jun and said, "How about moving your family over?"

Hou Jun shook his head and said, "It's only suitable for grazing here, not suitable for growing crops. Moreover, it's so cold that I'm going crazy that I'm going to do this."

Pei Lin smiled and said, "That's the reason, but we don't want this land?"

Hou Jun shook his head like a rattle and said, "Of course it won't work. This is what the brothers beat."

Pei Lin sniffed and said, "Do you know how much is the cost of Lantian City giving us supplies?"

Hou Jun smiled and said, "Who doesn't know this, three to one."

Pei Lin sighed and said, "Lantian City sent three kilograms of grain. After arriving here, less than one kilogram is left. During the process of delivering supplies, civilians were taken away by wolves from time to time.

The price is too high.

It won’t be possible if we don’t send it. According to General Li’s order, we strive to migrate the outpost to the north by 100 miles every year. In less than ten years, when transporting supplies from Lantian City, it would be nice to send ten kilograms to one kilogram.

It is because of this that we need these herdsmen. They have pastures here and we can also get supplies on site. This may be the reason why the big men in Lantian began to consider accepting these herdsmen.

Go and do business, we protect them, and they provide us with food, and it's no harm."

Hou Jun frowned and rushed to the leading old shepherd and said in Mongolian: "Are you their leader?"

The old shepherd clasped his hands together and said, "We are believers of Morigen Living Buddha, and the Living Buddha asked us to come."

Sun Guoxin's name has been spread throughout the grassland for a long time. Hou Jun still knew the name Mo Rigen, but he didn't know that this living Buddha was also a super boss of Lantian County.

"From the future, you've grown in this group of people. What's your name?"

“Batu.”

"Okay, Batuli, now let every shepherd come to me, I will give you the identity certificate, with this thing, you can freely grazing here.

We collect taxes once a year on the winter solstice. Don’t worry, the tax rate of your ancestor Genghis Khan is implemented. For a cow, we charge a ox leg, and for every ten sheep, we take one, camels and other livestock do not collect taxes, and use the tax standard as the taxation standard."

Lao Batu said in surprise: "One year?"

Hou Jun laughed silently and said, "You have to give the animals time to grow up, right?"

As he spoke, he jumped off the war horse, took out a thick stack of hard cardboard from his horse bag, wrote Batu's name on the spot, and marked his position as the head of the village. Finally, he used an official seal that he had never used even once.

He handed the cardboard piece to Batu and said, "Be careful to keep it, and never dare to throw it away. If it is lost, people will treat you as thieves."

Batu held the cardboard in his hand and looked at Hou Jun and said, "Can we grazing here?"

As he spoke, he pointed at the vast grassland with his fingers.

Hou Jun said: "The outpost is ten miles east of you. If you encounter a wolves or horse thieves, go to the outpost to report the message. We will help you drive away the wolves and kill the horse thieves."

Lao Batu nodded happily and happily greeted his companions to come over quickly. This time, the old guy was very smart. He even brought the children in the confinement period and asked Hou Jun to fill in the list and give him a name.

Hou Jun, who was familiar with literature, thought for a long time and then filled in his nickname. So Hou Gouer, Hou Yi, Er, and San soon officially appeared in the vast household registration list of Lantian County.

After explaining the matter, Pei Lin and his subordinates left the water source.

After the soldiers had gone far away, Lao Batu looked at each other with his own piece of cardboard for a long time before a burst of cheers suddenly burst out.

What they couldn't believe was that such a fertile pasture would be their pasture ever since.

"The road guided by the living Buddha..."

Pei Lin and Hou Jun still have a low understanding of this matter. They only know some of the benefits of collecting part of the benefits of returning herdsmen.

The main purpose of the return of the herdsmen in Lantian County is to de-primeize, de-parentize, cultivate new religions, and incorporate herders into the national management system.

The Ming Dynasty had a wide border, diverse ecology, and even more varied landforms.

Although the Han people are as tough as cockroaches, they can grow all over the terrain and the whole ecology, and in some areas, their productivity is far less than that of these professional herds.

National conflict is such a strange thing. It is killing and extinction in the early stage, and it will become a rescue and peaceful coexistence in the later stage. Of course, this must be under the premise of a great unification.

When more and more Mongolians and Tibetans enter the Lantian household registration book, a new trend will form, which will greatly alleviate and reduce ethnic conflicts.

Otherwise, such a huge country would always be in a state of war, which was not in the interests of the Han people.

After these herdsmen enter the Lantian system, there will be desperate merchants going to find them to trade... Even if these people are far away, this is not the same for merchants, as long as their output is worth enough and the price is low enough!

Lantian is a huge water pump. Any nation recognized by Yun Zhao will be attracted by this water pump. It will eventually be pumped away by the water pump, mixed with a large number of Han peoples, and finally stirred into a country with common values ​​and common interests.

Before Yun Zhao's appearance, the Han ethnic group had only divided races and had no concept of a country. Even if there was one, it was a concept of home. Now, what Yun Zhao had to do was to improve the concept of a country.

With the concept of a country, it becomes more inclusive. As long as you recognize a country, many things will be relatively easy to do.

A long time ago, Yun Zhao accidentally met a high-profile cultural person. The culture he created was Hakka culture. On this basis, this awesome person proposed a general theory - the Great Hakka.

The traditional Hakka people refer to the Han people who were forced to migrate south after the Five Barbarians invasion of China. Now, in this theory, anyone who left their hometowns and went to the south to work hard was included in the category of the Great Hakka people.

In this way, the scene of "everyone in the world is not Hakka" appears, which is very convenient for him to cheat money and anything.

Yun Zhao admired this very much.

This thing is a model that can be applied anywhere. When Yun Zhao has ambitions for grasslands, deserts, plateaus, and snow-capped mountains, this concept of "Great Hakka" consciously or unconsciously penetrates his head.
