Xiangyang is adjacent to the Han River in the north, Xiangshan in the west, the terrain is surrounded by mountains and rivers, the city is as solid as copper cast iron, and the Fancheng on the north bank of the Han River faces each other across the water, and together it has become the most important support point of the defense line of Jinghu Lake in the Great Song Dynasty.

Liu Bingzhong stood on the bank of the White River in the northeast of Fancheng, looked at Fancheng in the distance, pondered for a moment with his hands behind his back, and suddenly said: "Ashu, let your people change into Mongolian clothes." ”

Behind him, a man in his thirties, with a tall posture and wearing the uniform of the Mongolian Han Army, was stunned for a moment: "Liu Shumi, didn't the emperor say that we should be dressed as Han?" ”

This man is a Mongolian, but the marshal of the Great Yuan Capital, the son of Wuliang Hetai of the Great Wanhu in Shaanxi. This time, on the orders of Kublai Khan, he took hundreds of Mongolian soldiers to disguise themselves as Han soldiers to protect Liu Bingzhong, Ba Sipa and others and went south to participate in the debate of Putuo Mountain.

However, their group stayed north of Xiangyang for many days, on the one hand negotiating with the Southern Song Dynasty on entry matters, and on the other hand, waiting for the Yongxin Great Monk of Shaolin Temple and the Qinghe Zhenren of the Quanzhen Sect. But they waited and waited until the Southern Song Dynasty allowed them to enter the country, and did not wait for the monks and Taoist priests. Today, there is even news that the great monk Yongxin and the Qinghe real person Yin Zhiping have gone to Yidu and are ready to accompany the Empress Dowager Yang Miaozhen of the Tang Dynasty to the south of Putuo Mountain!

Liu Bingzhong sneered: "It's enough for the Han people to pretend to be in the territory of the Great Yuan Kingdom, and who do you want to show if you pretend to be Han people in the territory of the Great Song Dynasty?" ”

"Show it to the Song people?"

Liu Bingzhong sneered: "What about it?" Now that there are strong troops in the Eastern Tang Dynasty and Northern Ming Dynasty, does my Dayuan still have the strength to go south? ”

Not really! Not to mention Li Pu's Eastern Tang Dynasty, Chen Dexing's Northern Ming Dynasty alone was not something that Kublai Khan could defeat. If the Northern Ming Dynasty cannot be defeated, there is a question mark over whether Meng Yuan can keep the territory of the Central Plains. What else do you want about Gangnam? So it makes no sense to dress up as a Han in front of the people of Jiangnan.

But what is the significance of changing into a hufu and swaggering on the ground in the Southern Song Dynasty?

Liu Bingzhong smiled coldly: "Pretending to be a Han Chinese is still restoring the true colors of Mongolia." It all depends on whether it is beneficial or not. In the Northland, I Dayuan practiced Chinese law, and the opening of the imperial examination was for the Northland heroes to see...... In fact, these people were reluctant to succeed in the southern and northern expeditions. In the past, they wanted to share the world with the Great Mongolia. Now there are two more choices that can be shared with the world. But there was no Southern Dynasty alone. ”

Ah Shu blinked, Liu Bingzhong's words were too subtle, and he couldn't understand it as a Mongolian.

"General Ashu, what Liu Xianggong means is that the Southern Dynasty is the world of the Southern Scholars, and if the Northern Expedition of the Southern Dynasty is successful, the Northern Land will also become the world of the Southern Scholars. Where should the heroes of the northerners go to seek officials? Therefore, for the northern Haoqiang, you can vote for Ming, you can vote for Tang, and you can also be loyal to Dayuan. The only thing is that the Southern and Northern Expeditions are not welcome. ”

The big lama stood behind two people with his arms crossed, and beside him, one left and one right, two girls dressed in Tibetan costumes, all reverently clasped their hands together and staring intently at the great lama, who was the "Buddha mother" of the great lama. The "Buddha Mother" is a woman who has double cultivation with the Great Lama.

Well, the Great Lama, like the Japanese monks of Honganji, can come openly and openly if he eats meat and "double cultivation" or something, and he is not afraid that Liu Bingzhong and Ah Shu will report to Kublai Khan.

This is because the Great Lama is the king of the Sakya school who belongs to the New Tantra School, and double cultivation is a very important means of practice in Buddhist Tantra, especially in Tibetan Tantra. While visualizing the Buddha, he and the Buddha mother are practicing double meditation. Seeing the happy look on the face of the great lama, it is estimated that when he was cultivating Huanxi Heaven in the tent just now, he realized that my Buddha was coming......

Moreover, the inheritance of the Sakya Dharma King does not need to look for any spirit children everywhere, but only needs to be wounded in the Sakya sect. The descendants of Kuncho Jeb will choose the heir. Phag-pa himself is Kun. The sixth grandson of Kunchok Jebu and the fifth Sakya king.

If history hadn't changed. Phags-pa or his brother's descendants will continue to be passed down as the Sakya Dharma King until the 21st century...... However, there was no such outstanding political scholar as Phagspa, so the Sakya faction's ruling position in Tibet was later replaced by the Gelug sect.

Listened to Paspa's analysis. Ah Shu nodded convincingly—he, like most of the Mongol generals around Kublai Khan, believed in secrets. Of course, Phags-pa is worshipped as a man of God.

However, Liu Bingzhong looked at the Buddha Mother beside Paspa, and he was always a little unaccustomed. He also believed in Buddhism. But the belief is indeed to eat fasting and chant the Buddha and not to have a woman's six pure Han Buddhism, and I really dare not agree with the "happy Buddha" like the Eight Sipa. I don't know if when I arrived at Putuo Mountain, who looked more like a cult leader among the two demons, Ba Si Pa and Chen Dexing......

Ba Si Pa didn't see Liu Bingzhong's frowning brows, he was still making a triumphant analysis, and continued: "As for the Han people of the Southern Dynasties, they have not been conquered by the Jurchens and the Great Mongols, and they have misunderstood the debate of Huayi, and they do not agree that the Great Mongols have entered China, but they are easy to identify with Li Pu under the banner of the Tang Dynasty.

If Li Pu took the Central Plains, then in the eyes of the Southern Dynasties, he would be as qualified as Zhao and Song to become Chinese orthodoxy. Since ancient times, China has been in the north and the south, and there is no south and north. If Li Tang pacified the Central Plains, it would undoubtedly be Chinese orthodoxy, and the warriors of the Southern Dynasty would probably turn their backs on the Song Dynasty and enter the Tang Dynasty. And the scholars of the Southern Dynasty did not have any force, and they could accept Li Tang in the world, and they would not do their best to protect the Zhao and Song Dynasty. ”

Liu Bingzhong also nodded, although he did not agree with the Buddhism of the Great Lama, but he still admired the Lama's political strategy. Although he is a Tibetan from Us, he can see this little thing about China clearly.

Compared to the fact that the north was ruled by the Mongols, the Zhao Song Dynasty was more afraid of the emergence of a Han dynasty in the north! No matter who occupies the Central Plains, Li Pu or Chen Dexing can easily bulldoze Zhao Song!

And Chen Dexing may be boycotted by the scholars of the Southern Dynasty because of the Heavenly Taoism - those iron-clad Confucian scholars will not bow to Chen Daxian's strong ship and cannon!

But Li Pu is different, Li Pu respects Taoism and Confucianism, and holds high the banner of the Tang Dynasty, he is a quite orthodox Chinese-style emperor, and he is a true son of heaven. If the Central Plains is leveled and then the south of the Yangtze River is definitely broken, it is unlikely that those Confucian scholars of the Southern Dynasty will go to protect the Song Dynasty and resist the Tang Dynasty.

Therefore, Zhao Song and Li Tang are opponents who swear to each other, while Meng Yuan and Zhao Song are potential allies - because Zhao Song's Northern Expedition cannot succeed, then for them, it is most beneficial for the north to maintain a three-legged position, followed by Meng Yuan to eliminate Li Tang and unify the Central Plains! And the most unfavorable thing is, of course, Li Tang's unification of the Central Plains...... For the Zhao family, it is even better to die than to die Chen Ming than Li Tang! Because Li Pu's father Li Quan and uncle Li Fu were all beaten to death by Zhao Song, if Li Pu was allowed to take Jiangnan, would the descendants of the Zhao family still have a good end?

Grand Lama Phagsipa finally added: "That's why Liu Xianggong asked us to enter the Southern Dynasty in Hu clothes, just to show the Zhao and Song monarchs that our Great Yuan is a Hu country and not a Han country, and the threat to the Southern Dynasty is much smaller than that of Li Pu and Chen Dexing!" ”

Ah Shu suddenly realized and blurted out: "Could it be that my Dayuan can still join forces with the Zhao family to fight Li Pu and Chen Dexing!?" ”

Liu Xiaoyuan pinched his beard and sneered: "What's impossible? For the sake of the family with one surname, what else can't their Zhao family do? ”

……

"Exterminator!?" On the wharf of Penglai Port, Chen Dexing was wearing the ship's side baffle, looking at the old nun sitting on a sliding pole close to the wharf and a group of "heroic" characters following the old nun, and immediately thought of the exterminator who led people to besiege Guangmingding!

Moreover, he seems to be the leader of the Demon Sect himself......

Yang Po'er, who was standing beside him, heard Chen Dexing's blurted out words, and laughed in a low voice: "The king is wrong, Empress Dowager Yang's former nickname was not Extermination Shitai but Extermination Shitai!" ”

The Door Destroyer is too ...... This is even more ruthless than the exterminator!

"That sect destroyer, uh, who are those people in the body of the old queen mother?" Chen Dexing raised his hand and pointed to a bunch of nuns, monks, and Taoist priests with weapons behind the slide bar where the sect destroyer was sitting, as well as a person dressed as a Confucian with a sword hanging from his waist and asked.

"The nuns carrying spears are all from the White Lotus Palace, and they are the disciples of the old queen mother. The monk is from Shaolin Temple, do you see the fat monk in a purple robe? That is the abbot of Shaolin Temple, Master Yongxin, and those who follow him with sticks are Shaolin monks. The Taoist priest is mainly from the Quanzhen Sect, the old Taoist priest who sits on the slider is the Qinghe Zhenren, and the little Taoist priest with the sword is also from the Quanzhen Sect. Those Confucian students may be the Tai students of the Tang Dynasty, I heard that Kong Shi'an of the Confucian family was the priest of the country, so he should be the middle-aged Confucian who led the team......"

What kind of people are they? Nuns carrying guns, monks with sticks, Taoist priests and Confucian scholars carrying swords...... This is really not the world of martial arts?

Chen Dexing thought of this, and looked back at the Heavenly Dao Sect Daoist and Dao Gu he carried, and they were all all with swords on their waists! I really don't know if I went to Putuo Mountain to argue the law, or Huashan to discuss the sword?

Seeing that Chen Dexing was a little stunned, Yang Po'er smiled softly and explained: "King, the northern land has been in turmoil for decades, there is no royal law, and you can't even get out of the door if you don't bring weapons or learn some martial arts." Therefore, the monks who travel in the north have some means, and the Northern Confucianism pays attention to the generals and the phase, and the Confucian students who have no martial arts and can only die studying are sour Confucians who are looked down upon...... Because there is no martial arts, it is difficult to be a leader in the Northland, unless you get a big official as soon as you come up, who will match a powerless sesame official with a bodyguard? If you don't have bodyguards, and you don't know martial arts, you can send out to do something, and the quasi-security guards even ask people to rob them! ”

"I see!" Chen Dexing nodded again and again, it seems that he still doesn't know enough about the northern Han land! I don't know if these fierce Beini, Northern Monks, Northern Dao, and Northern Confucianism will frighten the masters of the three families of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism who grew up in the greenhouse of the Southern Dynasty when they arrive at Putuo Mountain?
