The nobleman Yapu was scared to kneel down! Liang Youwen told him not to be afraid of anything? He was the navy general of the Sanfoqi. How could he not know how powerful the pirates of the Pu family were? The Sanfoqi Kingdom could get rid of the relationship between the monarch and ministers of the Zhuluo Kingdom, and now he could dominate the Three Buddhas Straits, fight against Zhuluo in the west, fight against Java in the east, Zhenla in the north, and Ocean in the south. It was dependant on a group of Tianfang Sect merchants led by the Pu family.

Otherwise, how could the nobles who were superstitious about Buddhism and Tantric Buddhism go to war with Zhu Luo and Java at the same time? It has been strong for so many years now that the Pu family naval army has actually provoked the Song Dynasty, and it has been wiped out by someone!

These two disasters are coming at the same time!

It was a big disaster to provoke the Song Dynasty. The Three Buddhas and Qi Kingdoms have been fighting on both sides for so many years, and they have been exhausted. Now, with the Song Dynasty... Isn't it really going to destroy the country?

The second major disaster was of course that the Pu family naval army was wiped out! Without the Pu family naval army, the force of the Three Buddhas and Qi State on the Three Buddhas and Qi State was reduced by at least half. After hearing this news, the Juluo State and Java State might come to attack.

Even if they don’t come to attack, will the navy of the Three Buddha Qi Kingdom still have the ability to intercept the profiteers who forcibly pass the barriers? What should I do if I don’t have the ability to intercept the business of blocking the road and charging?

If there is no fee, then where does the Three Buddhas Qi Kingdom get so much money to maintain the army, the court, and so many monks and nuns?

Thinking about it, I'm worried for His Majesty the King!

However, what scared the great nobleman of Tuoban Yapu the most was that the Song Dynasty and the Three Buddhas were actually in a state of war!

The Song people would not cut off their heads, right? Although the two countries usually do not kill each other's diplomats when fighting.

But I am not an envoy of the Three Buddhas Kings! I am just a small official guarding the mouth of the river...

...

"...Guy of Tuobanyapu said that although Pu Abu is the governor of our country's naval army, our country's king certainly did not order him to attack the warships of the Song Dynasty. This is a completely misunderstanding! So I beg your country's heavenly soldiers not to attack the Badang Market. Everything is easy to discuss and discuss!"

Liang Youwen was kneeling on the deck and he was kneeling now. There was no way. He is now a guest-starring translator, and the nobleman of Yapu is the main master. Now the main master is kneeling and can't get up anymore. Can he, the translator, still stand swagger?

"What religion do you three Buddhas and Qi Kingdom believe in?" The great monk Yuanjue and Hu Yanqing stood on the stern deck together, and asked in a pretentious manner.

"Those who believe in Buddhism, all the Buddhist disciples in the Three Buddhas Kingdoms are so pious!" Liang Youwen quickly clasped his hands together and said.

"Oh," Master Yuanjue nodded, "Then why do you oppose the Buddhist disciples of the Song Dynasty sending troops to save the Buddhist holy land of India?"

This sounds a bit strange! Liang Youwenxin said: Buddhism has picked up the butcher knife to save the holy land now? Is this still a merciful Buddhism? What happened to the monks of the Song Dynasty? They have become so fierce...

"Master, we do not object to the sending of troops from the Buddhist disciples of the Song Dynasty in India!" Liang Youwen quickly explained, "That was done by the Pu family. They are Tianfang scholars, so they oppose saving the Buddhist holy land!"

"But he is the governor of your Three Buddhas!" Monk Yuanjue was reluctant to believe it, but just shook his head, "Aren't you Three Buddhas a Buddha's country? How could you be a governor of the Tianfang Sect? Is it because the king of your Three Buddhas apostate to the enemy?"

Abuse and surrender to the enemy?

Liang Youwen thought to himself: Is this the word of Buddhism? Why is this happening to the Buddhism in Middle Earth now?

"No, no, no," he doubted in his heart, and had to explain, "The king of our country is the most pious Buddhist disciple, and he donated money to the temple every year..."

"Is that true?" Yuan Jue looked at Liang Youwen, "So, is your king supported the saving of the holy land?"

"Support! It must be supported!"

"How to prove it?" Yuan Jue asked.

Is it necessary to prove it? Do you have to donate money to the Great Song Dynasty Heavenly Soldiers?

Liang Youwen was a little stupid. Didn’t the Song Dynasty just "given" money to others? How did you ask for money from others now?

"I don't know how much proof the Celestial Kingdom needs?"

"This number!" Yuanjue slapped.

"Five...50,000 taels of gold?" Liang Youwen said tentatively.

"Hmph! I'm not sincere!" Yuan Jue said, "You three Buddhas and Qi kings must be fake Buddhist disciples! I must teach him a lesson for the Buddha!"

What is this? Is this what the officials of the Song Dynasty should say?

"Five hundred thousand taels?" Liang Youwen's voice was trembling.

Yuanjue nodded, "This is almost the same... When you go back, tell the King of Sanfoqi that although 500,000 taels of gold is not much, it is definitely not as much property as the Pu family in Sanfoqi, right? As long as the Pu family's property is confiscated, there will be everything. And we don't have to ask for gold. We want to send troops to India, and we need food, ships, slaves, spices, corals, gems, cotton cloth, and all kinds of rare treasures. All of them can be paid.

In addition, you ask that noble bird to send some good wine and meat on board first! After floating on the sea for so many days, the birds almost faded out of the mouths of the Sai family and brothers."

This sounds kind! Liang Youwen thought to himself: Has this great monk wearing a purple robe ever worked as a robber? He is not bad at extortion!

...

The two nobles of Yapu and Liang Youwen ran back with their heads in their arms. They didn't stop for a long time when they arrived at the Badang Market. After arranging people to give the rewarded wine and meat and tamsui to the Song fleet, they went to Moluoyu City more than 100 miles away overnight to report the news to the king Dobila and Daxiang leather socks.

The reason why Moluoyu City was not placed on the seashore was to prevent it from being captured by the enemy. Bolinbang, the capital before the Sanfuqi Kingdom, fell twice in the war with the Javanese and Julu. The Sanfuqi people who learned the lessons no longer had the courage to build a capital on the seashore, so they simply placed the capital in the center of the Moluoyu Plain, far away from the seashore, and not even on the bank of the Badang River.

Because the transportation in the capital is not convenient, it took two days before I arrived at the Moluoyu Castle surrounded by the Buddhist temple!

This is a very strong castle! It is built on the plains with huge stones transported from unknown places. The city walls are more than two meters high, and there is a wide moat outside the city. Near the city, there are also a large number of noble manors. Although the Three Buddha Qi Kingdom is based in the sea and makes a fortune by collecting tolls, it is not a trading city-state, but a feudal kingdom. It relies on the nobles who own the manor to serve in the military to maintain their military service. There are also 15 small-scale feudal countries, mainly distributed in the northern (western) of Sumatra and the Malay Peninsula. The southeast of Sumatra is the territory directly under the king, and the fundamental place is the Moluoyu Plain, because the land here can accommodate a large number of small and medium-sized aristocrats who can undertake military service.

Yapu and Liang Youwen also had a small manor outside the city of Moluoyu. However, the two of them had no intention of going home. After entering Moluoyu Castle, they went directly to the palace.

...

"What? The monks of Song State dared to question that I am a devout Buddhist disciple? It's so inappropriate... I and the beauties in the palace have become monks, and there are kings more devout than me in the world? Did the emperor of their Song State become monks?"

In the magnificent palace and temple, the one who shaved his head and wore a monk's robe was the current king of Sanfoqi. He was a believer of the Indian Tantric Buddhism, and the queen even married from the Polo Dynasty. Because both of them were addicted to Tantric Buddhism, they simply became monks.

Of course, the monk king is still the king. Apart from a few hairs, he has not lost anything that the king should do. He wants to include the concubines of Guangna. The Tantric Buddhism does not prohibit monks from holding hands with women, but also calls it "happy Zen".

"Your Majesty, although the emperor of the Great Song Kingdom has not become a monk," the elderly Daxiang sat next to the throne of King Dobira and touched his white beard, "but he sent an expeditionary force to the Tianzhu Kingdom... If I was not wrong, their army would be on the island of Puluo. Now the one who sent to the mouth of the Badang River is only the vanguard."

"A dozen or more warships are still vanguards? How many should the entire army be?" King Dobira looked at his old grand prefect.

This prime minister was an important official left by the former king. He also went to Kaifeng Prefecture to pay tribute more than ten years ago, and received many rewards and was granted a general. He also became the number one important official in the Three Buddhas and later became an important official in the entrusted state.

"There must be hundreds of warships!" said Leather Socks, "Otherwise, it would be impossible to destroy the Pu family's fifty ships in such a short time."

This analysis makes sense!

Leather socks continued: "There are at least 200 people on a warship, including paddlers, and 20,000 people on 100 ships.

In addition, since the Song Dynasty wanted to assist the Polo Kingdom, it would definitely bring ships to transport troops. The infantry and cavalry carried were probably not less than 20,000?"

"40,000 army?" King Dobila gasped, "So to send troops to the Kingdom of Polo? How much benefit did King Polo give the Song Dynasty?"

He married the daughter of King Polo, but he did not send the Three Buddhas warriors to support King Polo to resist the Tianfang Cult warriors. Now the Emperor of the Song Dynasty sent 40,000 troops in one go. Could it be that he also married the daughter of King Polo? It seems that he has married more than one, but a group of people...

"King," Leather Socks glanced at the young king, "The old minister doesn't know how much benefit King Polo has given the Song Dynasty. But the old minister knows that my Three Buddhas and Qi Kingdom cannot reach the 40,000 Song troops no matter what... If the king does not want to destroy the country, he must deal with these Song troops from afar. Send them on the road as soon as possible is the right thing to do!"
