Chapter 1023 The White Lotus Disaster under the Han Army
Chapter 1023 The White Lotus Disaster under the Han Army
"How did you catch the spy?"
"A lot, 476 people were arrested!"
At the Han Army Center, Liu Wu carefully asked Lu Shu and Shi Deshou about the current intelligence security situation!
"What are the key purposes of these spies?"
"The ordnance station directly under the central government, as well as the reorganization and deployment of the current Class A combat troops and the Shenji Battalion, and, by the way, our mint."
Liu Wu nodded without any surprise. Nowadays, the Han army is developing very quickly.
If nothing else, the confidentiality level of the institute is extremely high. At least not many people within the central government know about the institute.
And as the territory of the Han army expanded, the status of these people increased, and the proportion of people who knew the institute further decreased.
Second only to the research institute, the ordnance institutes directly under the central government and the ordnance institutes in other places are the most confidential.
It's okay to say that the ordnance factories in other places are essentially manufacturing and processing some weapons, including trebuchets.
For example, in the manufacture of armor, the local ordnance station mainly performs assembly operations. This is an extremely labor-intensive ordnance station, but it is a powerful tool for the Han army to stabilize the place.
The Ordnance Institute directly under the central government is a production unit that smelts steel, casts armor plates, smelts and casts weapon embryos, ironclads, artillery, guns, and rocket launchers.
This unit is huge and has extremely tight protection. The core part is located in Hetu Mountain, and other parts are appropriately split, but the strictest confidentiality will be maintained.
In fact, whether it is Daqian, Taiping Daoguo or Rakshasa Man, after such a long time, they have discovered the Ordnance Station directly under the Central Government of the Han Army.
None of these forces is not curious about how the Han army created such weapons and armor.
Similarly, with the use of firearms by the Han army, even that time three years ago, the sharpness of firearms reappeared in front of everyone, and the world had already been shocked.
Therefore, when the Han army captured the land of Wuzhou and announced an expansion of tens of millions of troops at the same time, it essentially ran the risk of completely cutting off the enemy's exploration, and it also had the effect of diverting its attention.
In addition, the Han army had already fought several great victories, which completely frightened all the forces, and it was only then that it developed steadily for three years.
But even so, in three years, the Han army fought countless spies from all sides and killed nearly a thousand spies.
As for those little minions, not even ten thousand but eight thousand died.
Not to mention that Daqian and Taiping Daoguo also dispatched a large number of martial arts masters, and even the sects under the Han army were bribed by them.
It is precisely because of this that the Han army encircled and suppressed a large number of so-called sects within three years of its army expansion. Therefore, all the Central Guards Brigade was released to participate in the battles in these three years.
It can be said that the enemy coveted the Central Ordnance Station of the Han Army very much. They expected to get the secret of the Han Army's strength from it, and at the same time they also thought about destroying it if they couldn't get it.
Therefore, regarding the Ordnance Institute directly under the central government, Leizhou has repeatedly purged the White Lotus Sect belief, so there have been rebellions in one village or one town.
After all, the Han army built a large number of militiamen, and did not use harsh methods to eradicate the White Lotus Sect belief at that time, so once something happened in these villages and towns, it would be very serious.
In three years, Leizhou did not know how many people were killed.
Even in order to completely cut off the belief in the White Lotus Sect, Liu Wu adopted extremely cruel rule.
Of course, it's not bloody or anything like that, but a kind of contempt and exclusion, using people's hearts to completely destroy the White Lotus Sect's faith.
Under such circumstances, many believers in the White Lotus Sect abandoned their faith one after another, and those who believed deeply committed suicide because they could not bear it.
As for those who have deeper beliefs, it is difficult to handle.
But once this type of crime is discovered, it will inevitably be a public trial, parade, or beheading.
Then, their family members will also be subject to severe scrutiny and will be strictly followed and restricted from leaving the village or town.
In fact, Liu Wu originally did not want to use such harsh methods, because the White Lotus Sect is essentially a religion that guides people to do good.
Unfortunately......
The White Lotus Sect has become a tool for some ambitious people, and many believers have been used to spy on military intelligence, even spy on ordnance stations directly under the central government, and participate in subverting the rule of the Han army.
Liu Wu could only choose to completely eliminate his belief and label it as a cult.
In fact, this kind of church is essentially no different from a cult.
Not to mention anything else, within three years, the White Lotus Sect in Leizhou rioted as many as thirteen times, and the areas rioted were all in the other half of Leizhou occupied by the White Lotus Sect.
Just like this, when the White Lotus Sect chose to exchange the other half of Leizhou with the Han army, they migrated most of their loyal believers. Otherwise, the Han army would really kill people in Leizhou in three years.
However, the Han army treated people well enough and respected their beliefs.
Therefore, after the riots broke out, most of them were pacified by the nearby village militia and the town militia, and the remaining small number were directly pacified by the militia in their own village.
But in any case, the Han army wrote these things in the book.
It's still the latest textbook.
There is an excerpt of such an interrogation conversation in the textbook.
The staff of the Han army asked the rioting White Lotus believers, "Under the rule of the Han army, you have enough to eat, wear warm clothes, afford salt, and learn to calligraphy. Your life is obviously so good, why are you rioting?"
The White Lotus sect members said: "What does our good life have to do with you Han army? This is because we worship the Holy Mother with devotion, and our life is good!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone at the trial was stunned.
To describe this kind of ingratitude in such a refreshing and refined way is completely shocking to the series.
On that day, if the staff involved in the trial had not been stopped by others, they would have chopped him alive by themselves.
But even so, the staff angrily scolded him for being ungrateful and a white-eyed wolf. Words like this were echoed in the sky for a long time.
The result of the subsequent treatment was naturally to be beheaded in public, and then the Propaganda Department was scolded by Liu Wu so that he could not hold his head up.
Afterwards, a series of officials, including the village chief, village chief, town chief, town chief, county chief, county chief, etc., all need to strengthen their studies.
Even Liu Wu went against all odds and wrote this matter in his textbooks.
You must know that the textbooks and newspapers of the Han army are well known, so everyone in the world was shocked when this incident came out.
Especially for scholars, their three views will be shattered.
For a time, there were countless people who angrily criticized the White Lotus Sect and the Taiping Tao Kingdom.
As for those within the Taiping Tao Kingdom, there is a saying that they themselves are very embarrassed. If the White Lotus Sect was not the state religion, they would have to curse a few words.
This also caused many knowledgeable people to abandon the Taiping Tao Kingdom and defect to Daqian.
As for Jiang Fenghua, he was as uncomfortable as he felt.
Even after this became known to the whole world, Yang Shida, the leader of the White Lotus Sect, almost hanged himself!
Similarly, the Han army also intensified its attack on religion. Many Taoist priests actively participated and took the initiative to lead the way without taking a single coin.
In their words, this is called cutting down mountains and destroying temples, sweeping away the old spirits of the Six Heavens, and it is the duty of the demons and demons to do so.
And Li Kaiping, one of the forty students in the Han army, was inspired by the theory of destiny and yin and yang. After this incident, people who were already avoiding him became even more shunned.
It’s true that he was so miserable that he didn’t even get the job of cutting down mountains and destroying temples! ! !
In this regard, Liu Wu persuaded him patiently, "Old Li, if it doesn't work, let's just give up on this thing!"
Li Kaiping frowned, "I don't!"
Liu Wu had no choice but to send the iron baby to Master Rao.
