Chapter 201 Hassan Sabbah’s Guillotine!
Murong Fu was quite happy to see that Murong Bo thrived among the Jurchen tribes, became a highly respected and virtuous teacher, and also had a Murong tribe of thousands of ancestors of the Murong family came from Liaodong. Murong Bo’s reverse entry into the Pass was carried out quite well, and he really achieved the goal of “I am a great scholar, and let the barbarians fight for me”.
Now Murong Fu's Dragon Elephant Cavalry has expanded to 500 people, including 300 elite soldiers and 200 new recruits, all of whom are good seedlings, and are under the unified command of his adopted son Murong Fei.
There are a total of 2,500 people in the Five Elements Flags, with 500 people in each flag. Among the five flag bearers, there are Murong Fu's two adopted sons Fang La and Chen Huaiyun, and Murong Fu's old minister Gong Ye Qian. It is impossible for the other two flags to cause trouble.
If the army of 3,000 people is expanded, without losing too much combat effectiveness, every 500 people can be expanded to 1,000 people, that is, one thousand households.
Murong Fu can expand the army into six thousand households with strong combat effectiveness. These six thousand households have a total of 6,000 elite soldiers, which constitute a guard.
Five thousand infantry and one thousand cavalry!
An army of this size, if it captured Liangzhe Road and expanded to about 20,000 people during the war, would be enough to dominate the southeast.
Even though the Song Dynasty had an army of one million, the number of soldiers that could actually fight would not exceed one hundred thousand, and there was not a single soldier in the southeast who could fight.
Fang La was able to later occupy the southeast and complete half of his strategic plan, not to mention the now even stronger Murong Fu.
If he could train 50,000 elite field troops, he could work together with the Western Xia to attack the Western Army and completely destroy the Song Dynasty.
If we can train an elite field army of 100,000, it will be enough to unify the world, and the Liao Dynasty and the Western Xia can be destroyed.
The Song Dynasty may seem powerful, but for Murong Fu now, it is like a leaning tower that can be collapsed with a single push.
Even if Murong Fu wanted to, he could use disguise and martial arts to replace the emperor of the Zhao family, but the reason he did not do so was that Murong Fu did not want to establish a second Song Dynasty.
In the eyes of the people of the world, the deterrent power of a kingdom conquered inch by inch and a kingdom usurped through conspiracy and trickery is different.
Sima Yan succeeded in usurping the throne of Wei, but he had to compromise with the gentry. The imperial power was weak from the beginning. Murong Fu was unwilling to be such an emperor.
Only the new ruling group he created and destroyed the old ruling group with violence could wipe out the accumulated problems of the Song Dynasty for more than a hundred years. This is like a blank sheet of paper for painting.
No matter how great the power is, it still needs to be implemented.
Murong Fu did not believe at all that the old bureaucrats of the Song Dynasty would carry out his will to the letter. Only the army and officials trained by him personally could help him realize his political ideals.
Why did Zhu Yuanzhang kill dukes like killing dogs and prime ministers like killing chickens? He was not afraid of the power falling into the hands of others. It was because he built the country with his own hands, so he could truly live up to the saying "If I don't speak first in spring, no insect dares to make a sound."
However, the Song Dynasty was too big after all, and it would take Murong Fu some time to digest it.
At this time, if Yelu Hongji's Liao Kingdom suddenly moved south, it would disrupt Murong Fu's plan.
In history, Yelu Hongji did not want to march south, but this is Tianlong, and the Yelu Hongji here is very interested in invading the Song Dynasty. When the dynasty suddenly changed in the south, how could Yelu Hongji control it?
Therefore, using the Jurchens to contain the Khitans was the strategy that Murong Fu had already formulated.
Now that Murong Bo has accumulated strength in the Jurchen tribe, if he can cause the Liao Kingdom to start a civil war during Murong Fu's war to destroy the Song Dynasty, unnecessary trouble can be avoided.
After being rebellious against his father all his life, he is finally filial now!
Murong Fu was very pleased.
"Send the Saker Falcon and the steed to my adopted son Murong Fei. The Dragon Elephant Cavalry needs such good horses. The Saker Falcon is also a good thing and can be used for reconnaissance. Let Murong Fei use it well." Murong Fu said, "I will personally deliver these sable furs, oriental pearls and ginseng to the Holy Treasury."
"Yes, my lord!" Bao Bu Tong immediately executed the order.
Murong Fu escorted this batch of wealth and transported it to his treasury, the "Holy Treasury".
His holy treasury absorbed the wealth of Mantuo Villa, the funding from Western Xia, the funding from Dali, the income from Longcheng Chamber of Commerce, and the huge treasure of Tianning Temple, which was enough to support his training and maintenance of troops.
When he arrived outside the Holy Treasury, Murong Fu saw Murong Yan having people transport boxes of gold and silver into the Holy Treasury. Wang Qingqing was personally registering and checking each box.
"Mom, I'm back, why don't you rest?" Murong Fu smiled and walked forward, saying, "Here is a letter from Dad, take a look."
Murong Fu said this and handed the letter to Wang Qingqing.
Wang Qingqing said as she read the letter: "I've gotten used to being busy during this period. I feel uncomfortable when I stop."
Murong Yan bowed and said, "This servant greets the master."
Murong Fu asked, "Have you finished moving the treasures of Tianning Temple?"
Murong Yan said: "After a month, we have finished moving everything. This is the last batch. There are 60,000 kilograms of gold in total, and countless pearls and agates."
"Thank you for your hard work." Murong Fu said, "Nanliang was really rich back then! You have made great contributions and have been promoted from a slave to a maid."
"Thank you, Master. But I want to give birth to a child for you more. I didn't expect it would be so difficult for me to get pregnant. I can only make up for it by having sex more often." Murong Yan looked at Murong Fu with charming eyes and a blush on her cheeks.
"Ahem. Your father is such a heartless man. He wrote so much and didn't even mention me." Wang Qingqing raised her head and looked at Murong Yan and Murong Fu. "You young people, enjoy yourself. I won't disturb your fun anymore."
Wang Qingqing has always been a strong supporter of Murong Fu's plans to expand his family. She wishes she could have eighteen grandchildren at once.
"Mom, wait a minute. This is an anti-poison pill. Taking it can make you immune to all poisons. It's my gift to you as a filial piety." Murong Fu quickly took out an anti-poison pill and handed it to Wang Qingqing.
The people around him are all very skilled in martial arts, and the only thing that can threaten them is the extremely powerful poison, so the value of the anti-poison pill is extremely high. "Got it." Wang Qingqing said, "Don't call me old man, kid, you have so many women, don't you know how to please them? Work hard, I'm waiting to hold my grandson!"
After taking the anti-poison pill, Wang Qingqing immediately used the Lingbo Weibu technique to escape.
"Master, your mother is very cute. She told me about your childhood." Murong Yan said.
"Don't be so presumptuous." Murong Fu's face darkened, and he handed Murong Yan a poison-proof pill. "This is a reward for your meritorious service."
Murong Yan swallowed the anti-poison pill directly, waved her hand, and the surrounding Jinyiwei withdrew. Then she lay directly in Murong Fu's arms, breathing sweetly, and said, "Master, I want to give birth to a child for you. Come on, do you want to see what I am wearing under this dress?"
After Murong Yan arrived at Yanziwu, she saw that Wang Yuyan and the other girls were all pregnant, and she became even more obsessed with pregnancy.
Almost whenever she had free time, she would come to harass Murong Fu. She had a plump figure and strong muscles, and was as fierce as a wolf or a tiger.
A woman in her thirties, suddenly becoming addicted to pleasure, will inevitably become excessive in her demands.
That was Murong Fu. If it were any other man, he would have been unable to walk and his shoes would have been wet even when he peed.
Even so, Murong Fu felt like he had become a split-membrane man, and this Murong Yan was a female sorceress. He was her full-time pile driver, and he had to use all his strength every day to consolidate her emptiness and loneliness.
"Let's go inside the Holy Treasury. I don't want to stay outside." Murong Fu said.
"It's all up to you, my master."
The two entered the holy treasury.
"Take off your armor!" Murong Fu said viciously, "I want to see what you are wearing now."
"uh-huh."
An hour later.
Murong Yan was very satisfied and said, "Master, you are so strong and powerful! I can't wait to give birth to a child for you!"
Murong Fu said: "There is no problem with my output. Many women around me are already pregnant. If you can't get pregnant, maybe there is something wrong with your body?"
Murong Yan said, "Impossible. I am proficient in medicine and I am healthy. As long as I have sex more often, I will get pregnant. I will have sex three times a day from now on!"
"I have many wives and concubines, this is impossible." Murong Fu said, "It can only be once a day."
"Alright." Murong Yan said, "My Master, I like you to ravage me every day."
Murong Fu said: "By the way, there will be a big show later, you should watch it."
Murong Yan asked: "What drama?"
Murong Fu said: "The big show of executing you."
"Execute me?"
"Yes! The leaders of the Ming Cult from all over have come to Sun Moon Villa, and the guillotine I designed has also come in handy." Murong Fu said, "I will send the false saint Hassan Sabbah to the guillotine to put this internal dispute of the Ming Cult to an end."
"Master, is your guillotine designed specifically for me?" Murong Yan asked.
"No. I designed it for the dignitaries of the Song Dynasty." Murong Fu answered truthfully, "I think Tokyo is too urbanized a capital."
Sun Moon Villa.
Sun and Moon Villa was a villa built by Murong Fu after he bought land and houses near Taihu Lake, mainly for the purpose of housing the headquarters of the Ming Cult.
The sun and the moon represent brightness, so Sun and Moon Villa means Mingjiao Villa.
At this moment, in Sun Moon Villa, all the leaders of the Ming Cult from all over gathered together.
They came to the main temple to meet the new leader of the Ming Cult, Murong Fu, to learn Mingzun's new doctrines and to watch the torture of the false saint Hassan Sabbah.
Over the past two months, Murong Fu has sent the truth about the Ming Cult's changes to various branch temples in the form of documents.
Most of the leaders of the branch temples always support the leader, and they will support whoever is the leader. Since Murong Fu is already the leader, he is the only sun of the Ming Cult now.
They are like sunflowers, always facing the sun, and looking wherever the sun looks.
However, there are also a small group of forum leaders who are ignorant of the overall situation and actually doubt that there is another hidden story behind the changes in Guangmingding, that Murong Fu's sudden rise to power must be a conspiracy to seize power, and even that Murong Fu's Mingzun's advent is fake.
For this stubborn altar leader, Murong Fu had no choice but to send out Jinyiwei personnel to send them to see Mingzun and let Mingzun personally convey instructions to them.
After a while of this, the leaders of various places supported Murong Fu, and Murong Fu summoned them and their most capable subordinates to the headquarters in order to complete the final round of centralization of the Ming Cult on the eve of the rebellion.
