185. Destroying Confucianism One

The sun is bright and the weather is clear.

It's another very good weather during the busy farming season.

Just as farmers everywhere were busy harvesting the fruits of sowing in the fields and harvesting grain, officials everywhere were busy adapting to new positions and positions, and when military practices were practiced in various places, a piece of news flew across the country with wings, shocking the world.

Confucian rebellion!

This incident also originated from another major event - the invasion of the Huns!

Last year, the grasslands outside the border encountered a huge snow disaster that was unprecedented in a century. Countless cattle, sheep and horses were frozen to death. The nomadic people suffered heavy losses and countless people died of hunger and cold. There were even tragedies of the nomadic tribes exterminated their tribes due to the cold.

Just over a dozen days ago, nomadic peoples operating in various places gathered their troops and suddenly launched a large-scale invasion in the northwest area of ​​the Dagan Dynasty. Hundreds of thousands of troops emerged in full swing and bypassed the Great Wall area that the Meng family army was building. There was no organized resistance. All of them were occupied by the Huns, including Jiuyuan County, Yunzhong County, Beidi County, Shangdang County, etc., and the troops were directly aimed at the Neishi County where Xianyang was located.

But just when the Huns were trying to further expand their troops within the kingdom, Meng Tian, ​​the general stationed in the northwest, led the troops to the death. The Huns were obviously caught off guard and were killed to the death. In just a few days, with the cooperation of the troops of the northwest counties, the Meng family army drove the Huns out of the northwest counties with the force of sweeping the world, and the battlefield penetrated dozens of miles deep into the grassland.

In this service, the Meng family army killed tens of thousands of Xiongnu soldiers, and their reputation caused a sensation in the world.

The day after the battle ended, the supervision history of Jiuyuan County and Beidi County jointly wrote a letter accusing Confucians of secretly subsiding the Huns' food and clothing, and providing various secret assistance to the Huns' soldiers and horses invading the northwest of Dagan, including giving maps of the troops stationed in various places and the formation maps of the troops on each border defense line, which caused the troops and horses of each county to fail to deal with the invading soldiers and horses in time, and the military and civilians suffered heavy losses.

The accusations in the history of supervision are not slander out of nothing. There are all kinds of unmistakable evidence to come to Xianyang City with the memorials, as well as the arrested traitors who communicate with foreign thieves, who have completely confirmed their identity as Confucian disciples, and the action was instructed by senior Confucian officials.

At this point, the fact that Confucian colluded with the Huns to invade the northwest counties of the dynasty was as proof as a mountain and was sure!

At this moment, news came from Jiujiang counties located in the southeast of the dynasty that the Lingnan Academy and the patriarchs of various tribes of Baiyue came in and had close contacts. The private troops of Baiyue ethnic groups secretly gathered at the borders of each county, as if there were signs of large-scale invasion of the southeastern counties!

When the news came, the First Emperor was furious and furious. The kingdom was also in full swing, and strong commotion broke out in all counties.

In the evening when night is about to replace dusk and faint dark clouds are about to bring rain, the orders of Emperor Shinyang City were sent from the already bloody Xianyang City. After a perfect and efficient transmission, it spread throughout every county, county, and even every village of the Dagan Dynasty within three days.

Destroy Confucianism!

The date on which the decree is issued in various places shall prevail. If the official agencies in various places report to cancel the identity of Confucian disciples within three days, they will be killed without mercy!

Before ordinary government agencies received this order, and even before ordinary people learned about this news, military generals loyal to the First Emperor in various places had received the secret order from the First Emperor. A large number of soldiers with sufficient preparations and murderous intent showed their butcher knives and fiercely killed the Confucian scholars in the territory.

At the same time, the Shadow Secret Guards who had been operating in the dark, and the intelligence forces developed by the major court officials who were loyal to the First Emperor, showed their hideous faces. The lurking spies received an emergency order from their direct leaders, asking them to take action at all costs. The order was very clear: "Combined with the Friends and at all costs, dismantle any possible counterattack actions by the Confucian forces!"

Under the guidance of this message, the intelligence personnel lurking in the dark guided the assassination team members and achieved fruitful results.

Lu Changjiang, the commander of Ba County, was assassinated by his commander of the guard while sleeping at home.

Chang Ming, the governor of Dongting County, was drunk at the wedding banquet to marry the 18th concubine. On the way to the bridal chamber, he was assassinated by servants at home who had no intention of hiding his identity. Under the cover of his personal guards, he was lucky enough to escape alone. Unfortunately, his first reaction after escaping was to seek protection from the Censorate. He relied on his identity and rushed directly into the office hall, shouting with drunken eyes: "Rebellion, Censor Zhang, someone rebels, and wants to kill me!"

As a result, he was surprised to see that Zhang Yushi, who had always been brothers to him and was very eager, looked at him with a strange smile. Several masters holding sharp blades surrounded him with strange smiles. In the center of the lobby, several backbone members of the Confucian school fell in a pool of blood...

Gao Feng, a county magistrate from Dongting County, was a master from Yingtian Academy. He was stabbed to death by a knife in his heart, and Mrs. Zhang, who was sleeping with her, also disappeared without a trace.

...

This secret commotion was staged in the Daqian counties. After the first phase of the operation was concluded, information showed that more than 200 officials of all sizes died in unknown assassination.

The responsibilities of these more than 200 officials were different. Among them were nobles who had been loyal to Daqian for hundreds of years, noble literati and officials who surrendered to the six countries, law scholars who were well-known as legal officials in the court lieutenant, county magistrates who were in charge of military and political power in a county, county magistrates who were in charge of the affairs of a county, county magistrates who were in charge of specific affairs, low-level officers who were in charge of city gate keys, prison heads and prison guards who were guarding the prison.

It is obvious that Shadow Secret Guards and personnel from major intelligence agencies are not only very lurking, but their use of assassination has reached a peak. The Confucians have placed Mingzi or Anzi in various places for many years. They think their identities are unknown, but in fact, they have already lurked around quietly and silently observed their every move. When they take action, they are also killing them neatly, more precise and more decisive than surgeons for surgery.

More than 200 Confucian chess pieces planted in various places were assassinated by Confucian military forces that were headless and headless, which also paralyzed the Confucian intelligent system of gathering forces to counterattack and resist, making their reactions lagging behind the armies in various places. When the specific operation personnel reacted, Daqian's soldiers and masters had already put the butcher knife on their necks.

Accurate intelligence, rapid and powerful actions, killing the least people, achieving the greatest effect. This professional level is even pale in the special personnel of later generations.

In just a few days, through a series of precise and fierce assassinations and tacit military operations, the First Emperor firmly grasped areas of important strategic and economic significance such as Xianyang City, Neishi County, and Ba County, and effectively annihilated the organizational personnel and forces stationed by Confucianism in other places, making it impossible for them to make a difference in the chaos. This was a pioneering move in history from ancient times to the present.

Such a huge list of assassinations and action plans could not have been made in a hurry, and coupled with the rapid and powerful military operations initiated at the same time - anyone with a little IQ can see that the First Emperor's actions towards Confucianism were not annoyed and angry after realization. He must have had a complete action plan and cultivated a large number of loyal and reliable subordinates.

In the eyes of a few insiders, the relationship between the First Emperor and Confucianism is just a matter of who takes action first. Although the Confucianism takes action first, they underestimated the power of the First Emperor and did not know that they were the passive side. They gave the First Emperor the opportunity and excuse to take action, and eventually failed.

※※※

The warm wind whistled, blowing Lincheng's head full of hair flying.

As one of the six major academies of Confucianism, the elder of Chongshan Academy, he always paid special attention to his appearance and behavior, and tried to comply with the cumbersome and prohibited etiquette. However, at this moment, if a disciple of Chongshan Academy who knew him knew him would be particularly surprised to see him and the elders as two people.

I saw that he was wearing a ragged Confucian uniform full of blood. Hua Guan had thrown to somewhere. His black hair was tied in a mess, looking very sloppy. His calm and wise eyes were now occupied by the angry fire of revenge.

Now he looks embarrassed and fierce, without the chic demeanor and solemn demeanor of a Confucian master.

Chongshan Academy was destroyed, and Lin Cheng escaped by chance.

His strength is not as strong as Wen Tianhao and Gu Chen, but his feelings for Chongshan Academy and his disciples who were admitted to the school were not bad at all. On the way to escape, he witnessed his disciples being massacred and wiped out by Yinyang disciples. His heartache dripped blood and ignited a heart of revenge.

Since escaping from Chongshan area, he has traveled all night to Yingtian Academy, preparing to retake Chongshan Academy with the help of Yingtian Academy.

But before he arrived at Yingtian Academy, he received a news: except for the traitor, Yingtian Academy poisoned the water and diet of the academy. Then he contacted the nearby garrison to come to the door. The disciple who was lucky enough to eat and drink water, and the inner sect master who was strong enough to temporarily suppress the outbreak of poisonousness rose to resist, but the situation was stronger than others. In the end, only a few people escaped and the others were arrested and executed!

When Lin Cheng heard this news, his heart was cold.

Confucianism was caught off guard by the First Emperor, and the situation was extremely bad!

Realizing this, he no longer wasted his time seeking help from other academies and turned straight to the Lingnan Academy located in the southeast of the dynasty. The Lingnan area is located in Baiyue, and Daqian is weak. The Confucian disciples there are close relationships with the various tribes of Baiyue, and they are not close to Daqian and the First Emperor. Even if the First Emperor suddenly takes action, they can ensure safety there.

But if something happens there, the Confucian plan for hundreds of years will be ruined!

On the way to Lingnan Academy, Lin Cheng indeed received the expected news: After the demise of Chongshan Academy and Yingtian Academy, several other Confucian academies within the Daqian Dynasty were destroyed. The way they fell was all the cooperation between internal thieves and external troops. Only a small number of people escaped by chance. The worst thing was that Liuyi Academy located in Xianyang City, where no one escaped from top to bottom, and they were all arrested by Yingmi Guards.

The Confucian scholars in Qilu, who have never been on the same path as the six major academies, saw that things were not done, so they chose to protect themselves early. They immediately ordered Confucian scholars from Qilu to cancel their identities at the government agency, to endure and remain unmoved. Fu Nian, the current Confucian leader in the Small Saint Sage Village in Sanghai Holy City, took the initiative to go to Xianyang to meet the First Emperor to apologize, and temporarily protected the Confucian scholars from the Small Saint Sage Village and the Qilu land from being wiped out.

As for those Confucian disciples who escaped by chance from the academy, they were all very powerful and quite wise. They all knew that they could not stay in the dynasty, and they all chose to escape to Lingnan as much as they were. Although they were fiercely chased by Yingmi Guards and Yinyang Family along the way, many people still ran to the territory of Lingnan Academy alive.

The facts were as expected by these people. The power in the hands of the First Emperor was beyond the reach of the Lingnan Academy in the Baiyue Land, and could only gather strength to guard the important transportation routes. The Lingnan Academy was not slow to react. After learning about the tragedy of several other academies, they immediately contacted and mobilized all ethnic groups in the Baiyue Land, assembled troops, blocked the entire Baiyue Land, and were ready to face the battle.

When Lin Cheng finally contacted his old friends from Lingnan Academy, he learned that Lingnan Academy had already persuaded the patriarchs of all races in Baiyue, with the Confucian lineage of Lingnan Academy as the main force, gathered all the war soldiers of all races of Baiyue, formed tens of thousands of joint army to fight against the tyrants!

Although Chongshan Academy was destroyed, many of the disciples who were performing missions in other places came to Lingnan alive. They led the army as the vanguard army and went north all the way north and defeated several Daqian troops stationed in various places. Not only did they plunder a large amount of food, but they also carried many young and strong people who were disobeying the harsh laws of Daqian and the inhumane conscription system to expand their military strength.

Lin Cheng was overjoyed and immediately found the disciple in charge to indicate his identity. He didn't even bother to change his clothes, so he led the vanguard army all the way to the north.

The Daqian Dynasty had just unified the world, and its territory was huge but its power was insufficient. In addition, the current land of China was the economic, cultural and political center. The south and southeastern areas were now mostly wildernesses with inconvenient transportation, numerous wild animals, high mountains and dense forests, and heavy miasma and poisonous gas, which led to Daqian's extremely insufficient control over the southeast.

It is difficult for counties with vast land and sparse population to prevent production on weekdays, let alone start a war. Faced with a Confucian master of Lingnan Academy and armed soldiers of the Baiyue clan, they did not have the aura of the Daqian army's invincibility and the invincible attack. As a result, they were defeated one after another and one after another.

In less than a month, a large area in the southeast fell into the hands of the rebels.

With successive victories, the morale of the rebels in Lingnan soared, and all the troops gathered together to launch the largest northern expedition in history.

But at this moment, Lin Cheng, the former commander of the army, felt a chill in his heart - a group of elite soldiers of hundreds of battles appeared on the plain in front of him.

"Golden Fire Cavalry!"

“We were fooled from the beginning.”
