Chapter 547: The Disadvantages of the Sect and the Changes in the Southern Barbarians(1/2)
"Thirty thousand?"
Luo Hong was surprised when he heard that Shaoyao said that 30,000 Dharma protectors could be rebuilt.
"so much?"
Before Shaoyao could speak, Yanzhi said: "Thirty thousand, is that much? How many people do we have in the Hunyuan Sect? How many people do the small and medium-sized sects, martial arts schools, and holy temples under the Hunyuan Sect have in total? We want to protect the sect.
We also need to defend the Western Tibet... There are only 30,000 people, and I feel it is too few."
Luo Hong looked at Yanzhi helplessly and shook his head and said: "That's not how it is calculated. If we don't set up a law-protecting army, will they have no fighting power? When the sect is in danger, won't they stop protecting the sect?"
Isn't this Dharma Guard Army established to maintain the sect's laws? In fact, it doesn't require many people, only two to three thousand people, and I think it's enough."
Yanzhi wrinkled her nose and snorted softly: "Who do you belong to? The 30,000 Dharma Protector Army is obviously to increase our strength. How come you are like a hot potato when we get here?"
Luo Hong sighed, shook his head, and bowed to Shaoyao, who was still processing documents in an orderly manner, sitting behind the desk, and said, "Shaoyao, this matter is really a hot potato. Why are you bothering?"
Shaoyao reviewed the document in his hand, put it aside, stretched, and asked with a smile: "Oh? Then tell me, what's the bitterness in it?"
Luo Hong looked up at Peony and then at Rouge.
Rouge didn't expect it for a moment, and he wasn't surprised.
Shaoyao didn't expect that this was impossible.
Luo Hong took a deep breath and said: "Shaoyao, just from the name, you can tell that this Dharma Protector Army is an army in the name of the Dharma Protector, and this Dharma Protector is..."
Qin Dong and Qin Ying.
They and they are not of the same mind to begin with.
Especially after the establishment of the military government.
In Hunyuan Sect, it is probably just a name to share the sect's luck.
With the increase in the size of the Dharma Protector Army, wouldn't it increase the power of the two men and strengthen their luck?
Shaoyao smiled and waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about this. Our Dharma Protector Army is only nominally under the Dharma Protector's name. In fact, I have control over it. Even when the time is right, they will step down from their position as Dharma Protector."
If so, it's not impossible.
It's just that at this time...
Only names and implements, don’t fake people.
Just this name has very deep hidden dangers.
Seeing that Shaoyao didn't care about this.
Naturally, Luo Hong didn't want to be such a bad person anymore, so he skipped the question and continued: "Our sect has a loose structure and intricately intertwined forces. The establishment of this Dharma Protector Army will probably break the current power structure.
Let the Hunyuan Sect be in turmoil."
Luo Hong was deeply influenced by Feng Yu and disliked turmoil very much.
The same was true for Yanzhi. When she heard that the establishment of the Dharma Protector Army would cause turmoil in the Hunyuan Sect, she immediately hesitated and was no longer as determined as before.
"It's just setting up a law-protecting army. Doesn't it enhance the strength of our sect? How come it still... causes turmoil?"
Shaoyao picked up the teacup next to him, chuckled and said, "What a saying, 'the structure is loose and the forces are intertwined'. Luo Hong, you are really seeing the problem more and more accurately now."
Luo Hong didn't want to be praised by Shaoyao, so he smiled bitterly and said: "You have given me the compliment. Let's talk about how you plan to solve the problem of sect unrest."
Shaoyao blew the tea leaves floating on the water, lightly opened her red lips and said, "Naturally let the good ones float up and the bad ones sink."
Yanzhi's eyes lit up and he said, "Shaoyao, have you long wanted to take action against the current situation within the sect?"
If Shaoyao had already been confident, then this turmoil would not have arisen.
Even if it is chaotic for a while, it will probably calm down soon.
Luo Hong frowned and said thoughtfully: "After the uncontrolled expansion of the Hunyuan Sect in the early stage, the internal strength is very complicated. There are people in the world, martial arts sects, children of the former family, and ordinary civilians.
There are the Qin family’s children, the sect’s children in the Beast Control City, and the sect’s martial arts school newly established by the disciples…”
"This is still a rough division, but the specific division is divided into many branches. Moreover, many newly established sect martial arts schools were originally established by several forces, and the composition of the forces inside also changes from time to time. Even if I am in charge of intelligence,
Sometimes I can't even count how many forces there are, and for some people, I can't tell which force they should be classified into..."
At the end, Luo Hong smiled bitterly and asked: "Which one do you think should float up and which one should sink?"
Yanzhi covered her mouth with her hands in surprise.
She really didn't know that their sect actually contained so many forces.
Shaoyao smiled and shook his head, took a sip of tea, lowered his eyebrows, and said slowly: "There is no way to divide things like yours. If you follow this way, the forces everywhere will be entangled."
Luo Hong raised his eyebrows and asked curiously: "How did you divide it?"
Shaoyao gently covered the tea cup, and the crisp sound of ceramics clashing echoed in the empty office. Shaoyao said in a woman's unique soft voice: "Those who are loyal to the Lord and those who are not loyal to the Lord."
This division is not without precedent.
It's just that loyalty is too illusory and immeasurable, and it's not as clear as one's birth.
Luo Hong pondered for a moment, shook his head and said: "My lord is both the Holy Emperor of Dajing and the saint who pioneered the path of immortal martial arts. I think everyone in the sect should be loyal to your lord, even if there are some who are disloyal.
It should be a minority."
Hearing this, Shaoyao smiled happily, nodded in agreement, and then said: "So, I divided them according to those with pure minds and those with impure minds. This Dharma Protector Army will be selected from those with pure minds.
Just look for it.”
"Pure mind?" Although this is clearer than loyalty, it is also a very vague concept. Luo Hong said in a dilemma: "My ability is limited. How can I distinguish whether my mind is pure? Please give me some advice."
Shaoyao shook his head helplessly and said: "Those with pure minds will definitely not be able to rise to the top. If they are still at the disciple level, you can just find them among the disciples. Among the disciples, those who are from common people and have simple identities will be given priority. We will first select 30,000 to 50,000 people.
, and then use the elimination method to screen the people inside again, and that should be enough. Even if there are still some people with impure thoughts, they are very few. If you find them, just clean them out."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Luo Hong looked at Shaoyao helplessly and said: "Can't you just say that the disciples who are the most numerous but the weakest are those who are honest and loyal civilians and are not good at recruiting?"
He is loyal and has a pure mind, so he can't be fooled.
He even doubted his own business ability.
Shaoyao picked up the tea again, blew it gently, shook his head and said, "You can collect some information."
Luo Hong rolled his eyes at Shaoyao.
"Okay, now that the conditions have been selected, I will go down and make the selection. However, once the Dharma Protector Army is established, have you thought about how to calm down the turmoil within the sect?"
Shaoyao snorted and said, "They can't change the world yet."
Luo Hong also admitted this.
After all, the saint is alive, and this is the rule of the saint.
Plus the power of peony.
Even if they wanted to make a fuss, they couldn't.
only……
Luo Hong hesitated and said, "Would this be somewhat contrary to the Immortal Saint's ideas?"
Shaoyao lowered his head and took a sip of tea: "Times have changed, and we have to make changes."
When Luo Hong heard this, he suddenly understood something.
yes.
The family was banned.
The imperial court has changed dynasties.
Qin also officially stepped onto the stage.
If their sect remains unchanged, I'm afraid it will start to go downhill.
Luo Hong was still worried and reminded: "Although the martial arts family has begun to move closer to the Qin family, they are still a large force within the sect. With the promotion of the immortal martial arts, people in the world continue to join the sect.
, is also a force that cannot be underestimated. Although disciples from civilian backgrounds have pure minds, they are easily influenced by the court, and once their positions change, it is uncertain whether their minds can remain pure."
Having said this, Luo Hong glanced at Yanzhi next to him with his peripheral vision, and then said.
"Look, can we cultivate a group of people who are loyal to the sect from childhood? Just like Liyang Academy did..."
Although Liyang Academy founded by Feng Yu only lasted for three years, its influence continues to this day. Even if dynasties have changed and even if it has passed away, it is still the most powerful force in the current imperial court.
Shaoyao was a little hesitant, but what Luo Hong said made sense.
The master's definition of the sect can be a platform for contacting various forces, but as the actual manager, she cannot manage it so simply.
She needs people who are loyal to her and loyal to the Lord to look after these people for her.
Otherwise, wouldn’t it be making a wedding dress for someone else?
Shaoyao paused for a long time while holding the cup while drinking tea, then put down the cup, nodded and said, "That makes sense."
Shaoyao looked at Yanzhi beside him and said, "I'll leave this matter to you. Leave the children's teachings in the temple."
Yanzhi felt happy and said repeatedly: "Okay, I will try my best to get this done."
Shaoyao nodded, then set his sights on the documents on the table.
