Chapter 247: Our Xiaoyao Sect is such a place where masters are kind and disciples are filial!

The winter offensive to destroy Song has been launched for four days.

During these four days, Murong Fu was extremely busy.

On January 1, he led the crowd, with the help of internal and external forces, to capture the city of Kaifeng, arrested Emperor Zhao Xu, and captured civil and military officials, achieving the best record of the Tianli Sect.

That night, under the flattery of Murong Yan, Murong Fu visited Xiao Meng and simulated the pleasure of Emperor Taizong of Song.

Little Murong can attest that it is indeed very enjoyable!

On January 2, he publicly tried the illegal dignitaries in Tokyo, publicly tried Emperor Zhao Xu, beheaded Zhao Xu, demoted the emperor of the Song Dynasty to the King of Song, and destroyed the Song Dynasty at the central level.

Then the spoils of war were distributed, money, land, and women were distributed, and the Tokyo Imperial Guards and the Red Turban Army were reorganized.

Then, set off straight to Mount Shaoshi.

On January 3, Murong Fu arrived at Mount Shaoshi.

Although Mount Shaoshi is very close to Tokyo, the marching speed has reached the level of Xiahou Yuan's "five hundred in three days, one thousand in six days". If Murong Fu had not kept an eye on all directions and listened carefully to all directions, controlled the surrounding terrain, arranged horses for all soldiers, marched day and night, commanded properly, taken many shortcuts, and paid generously, and had a high prestige, the army would probably have collapsed.

In this way, the baggage train behind had not yet fully arrived at Shaoshi Mountain.

After arriving at Mount Shaoshi, Murong Fu exposed Xuanci's lifestyle problems, defeated and killed the Sweeping Monk, fished out the Sweeping Monk's apprentice, shocked the crowd, and during this time also fed Princess Li Qinglu of Yinchuan, who was finally saved from a long drought.

On January 4, he founded the Martial Arts Association, established a reward and punishment mechanism, and thoroughly managed all the schools and factions in the world, becoming the de facto supreme master of the martial arts world.

This is more than just busy!
They are simply slaves of the country, and they hardly ever close their eyes for the sake of the country.

This also made Murong Fu realize that although he was strong, the world was too big and he couldn't do everything by himself, otherwise he would be exhausted.

It's time to cultivate the talents of your subordinates and let them do things.

There were talented people among his subordinates, such as Tong Guan, who was taught the art of war by Li Xian. He was an expert in the civil war in the Song Dynasty and was the nemesis of the Song army.

No one understood the Song army's fighting style better than Tong Guan. After all, his teacher was a famous general of the Song army.

He could simply let Tong Guan attack Taiyuan, and Murong Fu attack Damingfu himself, and occupy the two important cities in the north.

In the past three days, Murong Fu had no plans to send troops, but to rest and reorganize.

After all, he is made of steel and can endure it, but the soldiers under him cannot.

Most of the Dragon Elephant Cavalrymen were from the Western Xia Iron Harriers, and they had practiced the Dragon Elephant Prajna Kung, so naturally there was no obstacle for them.

Although the Tokyo Imperial Guards reorganized by Murong Fu were the most elite part of the Imperial Guards, they were still quite tired after such a rapid march.

Murong Fu ordered the Shaolin Temple to collect medicinal herbs and cook tonic soup to replenish the soldiers' strength.

The Shaolin monks were also reorganized by Zen Master Lingxiu, but Zen Master Lingxiu put the "卍" symbol on the heads of these monks with white cloth. It is true that this is a Buddhist symbol, but Murong Fu easily had the illusion that he was the head of state, and he could not hold it back.

At this moment, Murong Fu and Tianshan Tonglao were touring the scenery of Mount Song. They were walking on the cliffs of Mount Song, enjoying the scenery below the mountain as if they were walking on flat ground. They were really like two gods high above.

"In the past, I didn't realize how powerful Emperor Gaozu of Han was. Now that I am leading the army myself, I know what a god he was. He was defeated in the Battle of Pengcheng, and his 500,000-man army was routed by Xiang Yu, but he was able to regroup in a few months. He destroyed the other vassal states in one month each. I want to completely unify the north and make it join forces with the southeast, which will take at least three months!" Murong Fu said, "Cao Mengde was defeated in the Battle of Chibi, and it took him five years to regroup."

"There are no heroes in this world. As long as you are fast enough, you can quickly take over the north. Moreover, the life and death talisman is so useful that you can quickly control the situation. The reason why it takes three months is that you don't want to let the soldiers plunder." Tong Lao saw the key point at a glance, "If you allow the soldiers to rob and massacre the city instead of taking the trouble to maintain military discipline, you can initially unify the north of the Song Dynasty in one month."

Murong Fu smiled and said, "Before I came, the soldiers were like bandits. If I come and the soldiers are still like bandits, then I have come for nothing. People always have to pursue something. We must create a royal army anyway."

"This is the leader of our Xiaoyao Sect. You, as an emperor, must be different." Tong Lao said, "Other emperors guard against the common people like thieves, but you insist on 'everyone has books to read, everyone has martial arts to practice, everyone has food to eat, and everyone has clothes to wear'. I thought you were ambitious for your family, but now I see that you really want to punish the criminals and make decisions for the people."

Murong Fu laughed and said, "In the final analysis, it is also for my own sake. Grandmaster Xiaoyaozi has reached the pinnacle of the human world and cannot surpass it. If I can make the country strong, the people prosperous, and talented people emerge in large numbers, then by gathering the power of the world, I may be able to break through the shackles."

"Besides, the richer and stronger the country is, the more enjoyable it is to be an emperor. Otherwise, look at the Zhou emperor's diet, what kind of rotten food is that! If I give Zhou emperor a plate of pickled vegetables and rolled tofu, he will say that he is not as good as me!"

Having experienced the affluent life in later generations, Murong Fu was also obsessed with developing productivity.

In that era, there were not even cameras, so many of the battles between him and his wives could only be recalled in his brain. It was a pity that he could not review them with his wives afterwards.

The lifestyle in the Northern Song Dynasty was quite complete, but Murong Fu's taste had long been spoiled by MSG. He didn't care about eating now because everything he ate tasted bland.

And no matter how bright a candle is, it is still far inferior to an electric light bulb.

The emperors of the Qing Dynasty loved to visit the south of the Yangtze River because their quality of life was not as good as that of the salt merchants. Since there was no cold chain technology at that time, good things would rot when they were transported to the capital.

Only with the improvement of productivity can the emperor live a good life.

Benefit yourself and benefit the people at the same time. This is also what Mencius said. If you are successful, you should help the world!

"Teacher Xiaoyaozi..." Tong Lao's face turned gloomy, and she said faintly, "I was just about to tell you about this. Uncle Wu Chen is your enemy and a big threat to you. I don't mind if you kill him. But the problem of Teacher Xiaoyaozi's possession of the devil is indeed the responsibility of our Xiaoyao Sect. Everyone in Changchun Valley is my clansman. Now Teacher Xiaoyaozi is temporarily trapped by himself, but it is better to say that his conscience has trapped him rather than the formation. Once Teacher Xiaoyaozi's conscience disappears, he will definitely break free, and my Changchun clan will be finished!" "If he breaks through Changchun Valley and comes to this mortal world to kill people, there will be mountains of corpses and seas of blood, and bones everywhere!"

Tong Lao was worried.

Murong Fu, however, remained calm and composed.

Because there is no legend in later generations about a story like "the devil came out of the mountains and the world was suddenly shrouded in blood and rain", it shows that Xiaoyaozi actually had a strong ability to control himself, and he probably imprisoned himself in Changchun Spring until his death.

"Don't be afraid! After I unify the world, we will go find the ancestor and save this demon-possessed ancestor." Murong Fu said, "What demon or not, I think as long as the fist is hard enough, the demon will be purified! Moreover, we have gathered talents from all over the world, and we may be able to achieve a complete unity of Buddhism and Taoism. In fact, the sweeping monk has already completed part of it. The "Shen Zhao Jing" is really magical. He has been dead for several hours and there is still a possibility of resurrection. He is really lucky!"

"Master Xiaoyaozi's cultivation is not comparable to Wu Chen's, otherwise Wu Chen would not have hesitated to go to Changchun Valley." Tong Lao said, "After I regain my youth this time, I don't know if I can become a grandmaster. I hope I can lend you a helping hand."

"Don't be afraid, he has magical powers and I have science." Murong Fu said with a smile.

"science?"

"After the founding of the country, I will order Feng Asan to supervise the construction of 500 artillery pieces. The artillery pieces will be deployed in Changchun Valley. If you find that Master Xiaoyao is too strong, then we will fire at him!" Murong Fu said with compassion, "In our Xiaoyao Sect, the master is kind and the disciples are filial. He is my master's great master. If he is hopeless, I can only fire 500 artillery pieces at the same time to let him have a taste of the cannonballs."

Tong Lao was speechless for a moment.

Although she didn't know what a cannon was, she thought it was a powerful weapon. He actually deployed 500 of them to deal with Xiaoyaozi. Murong Fu was really filial.

However, thinking that Murong Fu was so shameless that he even dared to do such a thing, Tong Lao concluded that Xiaoyaozi was doomed to fail and she felt relieved.

Three days later.

On January 7, Murong Fu reorganized his army and prepared for war.

"The Ming army is mighty!"

"Long live King Yan!"

After the military review, Murong summoned Tong Guan again.

"Tong Guan, now you have a chance to make a contribution. The people on the sacred mountain have a large number of internal supporters in Taiyuan. I order you to lead 5,000 soldiers and help him take Taiyuan. Taiyuan is a strategic location. Once it falls into our hands, the north will be stable." Murong Fu said.

"Yes, Your Highness, I will definitely live up to your trust!" Tong Guan said happily, "I will definitely take Taiyuan City."

"Go ahead! I'll toast you."

"I dare not. It should be this servant who toasts His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan!"

Tong Guan quickly demonstrated his ability in dealing with human relations and toasted tactfully. He not only toasted Murong Fu, but also Tong Lao and others.

I can only say that he is worthy of being one of the six thieves. He is good at dancing with the sleeves and is smooth and worldly-wise.

Afterwards, Murong Fu personally led his army to Daming Prefecture.

Along the way, he captured cities and strongholds, and constantly recruited the imperial guards in the north of the Song Dynasty. The towns and cities everywhere were almost vulnerable.

Every time he occupied a place, Murong Fu would recruit rebels and surrender. Su Che and others would come forward to explain the situation. When the officials saw that the prime ministers of the court had surrendered, they also surrendered decisively.

After all, no matter how awesome you are, you can’t be better than Scholar Su!

What's more, there is the life and death talisman.

Murong Fu had to make a "Roster of Life and Death Talismans" because there were too many people who had been given the Life and Death Talismans by him, and he had to record them down in case Murong Fu forgot to give them the antidote when the talismans expired.

Murong Fu's memory is indeed excellent, but big people always tend to forget small people. This is an objective law of society, and Murong Fu cannot violate it.

There were a few who wanted to die for the Song Dynasty, and Murong Fu decisively took iron-blooded measures to fulfill their wishes.

It's not just sending them alone to die for the country, but sending their entire family to die for the country. If you like to die for the country, then do it well.

At the same time, Murong Fu also mobilized local or nearby Mingjiao disciples to supervise local officials, reorganize the army, and establish a taxation system for Murong Fu, while the local area basically remained the same.

This is also the most important significance of Murong Fu becoming the leader of the Ming Cult. There are millions of Ming Cult disciples scattered across China. Such a foundation of heroes at least saves Murong Fu the trouble of several generations.

About seven days later, Murong Fu expanded his army to 30,000 and could already see Daming Prefecture from afar.

However, the gates of Daming Prefecture were tightly closed, as if the city was being defended.

Murong Fu was a little surprised and laughed, "All along the way, we have been attacking them by surprise. I didn't expect that the commander of Daming Prefecture is such a talent. He actually realized that we are enemies and not friends, and immediately put up a defense. It's quite interesting!"
