Chapter 767 Sending to Yidu
"The barbarians and the ignorant people of the southern barbarians are extremely ignorant. If they do not follow the teachings of the sages and even offend the power of God, they will be punished with death." Tan Mashana was unexpectedly able to speak the not-so-authentic Tokyo mandarin, which seemed to be a bit genteel. The taste was really beyond the expectation of Fang Tianding and others.At this moment, he bowed his head and begged for mercy: "I hope the general will spare his life, and the villain is willing to follow the order of the kingdom, and the horse will look forward..."

At this moment, Tan Ma Shanaah still doesn't know the real purpose of Fang La's army going south.He only thought that the emperor of the Central Plains was greedy for money, and he was greedy for the interests of the Malacca Waterway, so he sent an army to attack him this time.I felt in my heart that as long as I showed some obedience and handed over some benefits, my life and inheritance would still be safe.

But they didn't know that Fang Tianding, Wang Yin and the others looked at each other and then laughed. "Come here, and take him down to watch."

"It would be good if the Three Buddha Kings were dead, but it would be troublesome to be captured alive." When Deng Yuanjue was speaking, Cheng Gui lowered his head as if he had done something wrong.In fact, this kind of glory of capturing the lord of a country is too prominent and rare for the Manichaean navy, so that once the sailors confirm that the gorgeously dressed Tanmasana with the crown on his head When Ah was the king of Srivijaya, the high-pitched noise immediately spread to the uproar.

"In the opinion of the Sa family, it would be better if this group of birds is not good enough to be sent to Yidu."

As soon as Monk Baoguang said this, he immediately won a lot of praise.That's right.Tan Ma Shana is always a disaster in their hands, but it is not easy to kill. After all, the news that his army has captured King Sanfoqi alive has spread. I don't know if the Qi army knows it. We all know.

"Then send someone to Yidu!" Fang Tianding clapped his hands.

Then the army was divided into three, the main force went straight to the mouth of the Musi River and went up the river without any hesitation, some of them stayed at the mouth of the river, and the camp of the Srivijaya was just for them to use, while the other part stayed on the battlefield to collect the spoils.

Whether it's the captured Srivijaya sailors, nobles and slaves, or the traumatized but still floating ships, that's wealth.

Ruan Xiaoqi didn't call out to pursue him either.Dhows are not slow, especially if they have oars.Long-distance acceleration is impossible, but it is not a problem to get rid of Fuchuan in a short distance.Should only one ship, the East China Sea, go after it?

Taking down the Musi River does not mean that you can reach the Old Port in the blink of an eye. The city is more than a hundred miles away from the mouth of the sea.The Manichean fleet just arrived there on the second day.

However, Fang Tianding and his party, who were full of joy, couldn't help opening their mouths when they arrived at the Old Port by boat for the second time.

Is the city they saw really the city Deng Yuanjue mentioned?
Except for the gathering area of ​​Tianfang people near the wharf port, which can still be kept clean, the whole city seems to have been roasted by fire, and the central and southeastern parts of the city are still full of smoke.The weeping was heard even by the Manichean sailors on the Musi River.

There were more than a dozen celestial dhows floating outside the port. Seeing the arrival of a large number of Manichean ships, they all gave way to the south bank.

The nearly [-] Sanfoqi warriors who were isolated in the port by the river, the Tianfang people, who could hold their breath and say nothing, insisted on not surrendering, but faced with the power that they couldn't resist right now, they didn't even have the courage to resist , can only surrender obediently.

In just an hour, the entire city has completely fallen under the control of Manichaeism.

Then yesterday, the harm Tianfang people did to the entire city of Jiugang was also gathered in Fang Tianding's hands in every detail.

Countless noble houses in the southeast of the city were looted, and the palace was also looted. Dead people were everywhere. There is no need to mention how many women suffered in the process. Some good seedlings have also been kidnapped by Tianfang people. The latter The world is full of female slave trade, not to mention Tianzhu.These noble women of Sanfoqi have fair skin and Tianzhulike appearance, and they are not ugly at all in the eyes of Tianfang people.They are all excellent goods!
What's more important is their destruction of Buddhist temples. The eminent monks who were respected by the indigenous people in the past were slaughtered like pigs and sheep.

The richest place in Sanfoqi is not the palace, but these Buddhist temples.The Buddha statues enshrined in many temples are pasted with gold foil, inlaid with gems, and even directly a golden Buddha.And now...

Endless pain suddenly flashed through Fang Tianding's heart.This wealth should be theirs.With this financial foundation, they can spend their money to hire sea ships for a long time to bring the Manichaeans stranded on the ground in eastern Guangdong to Nanyang as quickly as possible.

But now countless money flew away with little wings, and it was the Tianfang people they contacted on their own initiative. As long as he thought about it like this, the pain in his heart made him unable to breathe.

These wealth are comparable to the value of [-] shi, grain and rice, which is much higher.But that's how 'business' is, there are gains and losses.The Manichaeans lost a lot of money, but they could also earn money to reduce the hatred of the local aborigines.

"Crotch!" Deng Yuanjue slammed the Zen staff on the ground heavily, and the one-foot-square paving stone bricks were torn apart. "Amitabha!" It's really tolerable or unbearable.

Although Monk Baoguang also had great disapproval of the Three Buddhas and Qi monks, it didn't mean that he could see the people from Tianfang ruining Buddhism like this.

"Slaughtering monks and stealing Buddha statues, Tianfang Fanshang doesn't have the slightest bit of respect for Buddha in his heart. Namo Mani Light Buddha!"

Although rough people can't make it bad?

When Deng Yuanjue proclaimed the Buddha's name, all of Fang Tianding's high-ranking Manichaeists changed face.They all forgot at this moment that Venerable Mani was already Mani Guangfo.

Wang Yin was shocked suddenly, that's right, he immediately said: "What the national teacher said is true. The son should be an envoy who can ask Tianfang Fanshang for a few artifacts such as Buddhism."

Regardless of what the real purpose is, at least it doesn't make Tianfang people gain too much benefit, right?You must know that the Three Buddhas Qi Buddha Gate has a lot of influence from primitive Buddhism and Brahmanism. Many of the lamps, pans, and incense burners in front of the Buddha are pure gold.

Chinese rulers have always been pragmatists, especially the dynasties after Li and Tang. The emperors have learned the lesson after suffering great losses in cultivating immortals and Buddhas.You see that Zhao Ji is very obsessed with cultivating immortals, isn't he?But have you ever seen him imitating Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and spending huge sums of money to build Tongtian Tower, Feilian Pavilion, and Gui Pavilion?Renminbi artists spend their money on themselves.

When Fang Tianding saw the heavily damaged Buddhist temple, his first reaction was not to disrespect the Buddha, but to feel sorry for the money.Now that he suddenly has a good excuse to ask for benefits, will he be unwilling? "Yes, yes, this is extremely disrespectful."

If Fang Tianding's face was not full of joy when he said this, but angry, his words would still be so convincing.

Right now, Monk Baoguang was asked to lead the soldiers to demand benefits. After learning that several Chinese families had suffered during the military chaos, he even used this as an excuse to ask the Tianfang people to hand over the murderer.

"Those hateful Shirks, they are crossing the river and tearing down bridges!" In Xingyue Temple, Yasudin was furious.

Suleiman Shah looked at him like a fool. Can the ruler believe everything he says? "What a fool."

Manichaeism only asked them for Buddha statues and utensils, but did not ask them to spit out all the benefits. This is already very interesting.As for the Chinese who suffered the disaster, even Suleiman Shah felt that it was the disobedient True God believers who did it. After all, the Chinese were rich and had their heads knocked out by force yesterday, so it would not be surprising to kill them casually.Therefore, according to Suleiman Shah's opinion, they had to obediently donate a sum of money to the Manichaeans and throw out a few scapegoats to make amends, thus settling the matter completely.

Yasuddin opened his eyes wide and seemed not to recognize Sulayman Shah in front of him. Four words were clearly written on his face: Are you stupid?

Returning the Buddha statues and utensils is already cutting their flesh.Throwing away a few scapegoats is a trivial matter, and Manichaeism does not 'get to the bottom of it' anyway.But you still have to take the initiative to donate a fortune, isn't it crazy?

This person still had some sense, so he suppressed his anger and didn't question it.The status of Elder Tianfang is very lofty.But in front of wealth, he is no nobler than gold and silver.Yasudin closed his eyes and made a decision in his mind. ——He will not send a penny!
Suleiman Shah didn't care.His status is very lofty, but he cannot dominate everything.You must know that in the face of real interests, even the Caliph will become insignificant when it comes to the fundamental interests of people.

The ups and downs of the Abbasid Dynasty over the past few hundred years have proved this point in a very real way.

Yasudin didn't know the truth of taking a step back, so he had to bear the consequences of his decision today.What does it have to do with him?
Monk Baoguang led his troops to surround the gathering area of ​​Tianfang merchants in an open and honest manner. This move greatly increased the favor of the locals of Sanfoqi. When showing off for everyone to see, such a deed will naturally win the respect of the Srivijaya natives.Not to mention the foreign Manichaean army. Although they were invaders, they were the first to lend a helping hand to the suffering Sanfoqi natives.

Take the disaster-stricken Sanfoqi aborigines and settle them in temples. These people are likely to be the first batch of believers of Mani Guangfo in Sanfoqi, that is, the first batch of savages conquered by the Chinese. After all, there are Emotional basis isn't it?

Even the Sanfoqi "samurai" on the port were also separated one by one by them.Ordinary soldiers were sent home after their weapons were confiscated, and only those nobles were treated differently.

After meeting these people and their families, they were all placed together.

They are the foundation of King Sanfoqi's rule. Without these people, it is like the Chinese emperor without officials and gentry.

The members of the Sanfoqi royal family did not suffer any harm, and the Tianfang people were not brainless idiots. Even though there were many first-class good guys in the Sanfoqi royal family, they did not commit any crimes.

The latter's identity is too sensitive.If they disturb the Srivijaya royal family, I'm sure even the Manichaeans will look at them differently.Because in the future, the Manichaean group will replace Srivijaya's high-level dignitaries.

From a historical perspective, this is a very interesting change.The Sanfoqi ruling class, which has been transformed by the blood of the bankrupt Tianzhu, is essentially different from the Sanfoqi natives.As for the invasion of Manichaeism, it is the ruling class of Srivijaya who is more intriguing than the lower-level indigenous people with a larger population...

This is just a superstructure replacement and change.It's like the topmost spire of a tower has been replaced, and everything else is inconvenient.

If the Manichaeans could turn their minds quickly, they would find that they could completely copy the old rule of the Srivijaya people.And it all depends on what Fang La and other high-level Manichaeists think!
