Who Is the God of Light?
"Radiant Envoy, Manichaean Yang Youniang greets Governor Zhang.”
Zhang Xun glanced at Yang Youniang.
Although she was called a witch, she looked more like a saintess. She was dressed in white, had beautiful looks, and elegant manners. Her tone was even more like a fairy from heaven.
"So you're the Radiant Envoy of Manichaeism…Manichaeism is what the westerners call it. Since you've come to the Central Plains, I think you might as well change your name to Ming Cult.”
Zhang Xun smiled and said.
A hint of shock appeared on Yang Youniang's holy face.
This Zhang Xun... How did he know that Manichaeism was preparing to change its name?!
Could it be that he could predict the future?
Yang Youniang's eyes were also covered with a layer of mystery.
Zhang Xun didn't look at Yang Youniang's reaction. Instead, he pulled out his binoculars and looked at Yangzhou City.
At this moment, Yangzhou City was ablaze with flames everywhere. It was a mess.
"You guys are really good at fighting, but your battle skills are a little bad. Against Dumu's 1,000 weak soldiers, you guys are still not able to defeat them. If this dragged on, they would probably be wiped out. The governor of Yangzhou still had 300 delinquents at his disposal. They had already gathered some able-bodied men and were ready to seal the city gates.”
Zhang Xun said as he observed with binoculars.
"This is…" Yang Youniang was very interested in binoculars.
"Take a look for yourself."
Yang Youniang took the binoculars and looked forward, imitating Zhang Xun.
"This... What spell is this?"
Yang Youniang's holy face revealed a shocked expression. She only saw that Yangzhou City, which was a few miles away, had appeared in front of her in an instant.
How could Yang Youniang not be shocked by this scene?
Her expression changed slightly when she looked at Zhang Xun.
"This is not a spell, this is a kind of... Uh, a kind of light knowledge." Zhang Xun found it difficult to explain at the moment, so he could only brush it off.
"Viceroy Zhang, I have come to ask you to save the tens of thousands of Manichaeism members in Yangzhou. If they fell into Cui Liang's hands, they would definitely die.”Yang Youniang took a deep breath and looked at Zhang Xun with a burning gaze.
Light descended to save all living beings.
Could it be…
Yang Youniang's eyes were filled with fanaticism.
She wanted to know if this Zhang Xun was the God of Light that the Manichaeans were looking for.
He had predicted that the Manichaeism would change its name and had a magical thing like a telescope.
Thirteen battleships broke through the Yuezhou Navy.
The Governor of Yangzhou, Cui Liang, had also mobilized the troops of the five prefectures to deal with Zhang Xun. However, Zhang Xun had appeared in Yangzhou City and robbed eight grain ships.
All of this seemed to indicate that Zhang Xun was an extraordinary person.
"Since I saved the Manichaeans, shouldn't they listen to me?”
Zhang Xun asked with a faint smile.
"If Viceroy Zhang is the God of Light, the entire Manichaeism will definitely pursue him.”Yang Youniang replied.
"Oh? Yang Guangming." Zhang Xun's face revealed a smile," You think I'm the God of Light?”
"If the Viceroy can prove that he is the God of Light, Young Mother and the entire Manichaeism of Yangzhou are willing to serve you as their master and obey your orders.”
Zhang Xun pursed his lips. So there were conditions.
How could he prove that he was the God of Light?
Could it be that there was a God of Light ID card?
"If the Viceroy is really the God of Light, then please lead us to cleanse the darkness and build a bright world.”
Yang Youniang's voice became gentle and bewitching."Right now, in Yangzhou City, the Governor of Yangzhou is unscrupulous, corrupt, and perverted the law. He plunders the people's wealth. Many people are starving, their clothes are not covered, their feet are not standing, and their heads are covered in five pieces of green tiles. If the God of Light came to the world. Please kill Cui Liang, seize his property, and divide the land equally. In this way, my followers will certainly be loyal to the Viceroy. With the help of the Manichaeans, why worry about not achieving great things?”
Yang Youniang spoke with confidence and logic.
However, Zhang Xun kept shaking his head.
This Young Lady Yang was walking the path of dividing the rich and the poor, but in history, the probability of success was too low.
Currently, the conflict between the people and the land in the Tang Dynasty was not that prominent. Usually, the early stages of the dynasty had experienced a brutal war. The population had decreased sharply, and the per capital land resources were abundant. This was often the time when the dynasty recuperated.
Right now, the Great Tang only had fifteen million people, but it had more land than people. The fertile, warm, and moist Jiangnan region was especially sparsely populated, with most of the population concentrated in the Central Plains and the Guanzhong Plain.
Therefore, the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty was accompanied by the development of the Jiangnan area.
It was only after the Song Dynasty that the economic population of the Jiangnan area gradually surpassed that of the Central Plains and became the economic center of China.
The agrarian revolution in the Jiangnan area, where there were fewer people and more land, really failed to grasp the main contradiction.
Thinking of this, Zhang Xun smiled and looked at Yang Youniang quietly.""Yang Ming, if I were the God of Light, I don't need you to teach me how to do things, right? If you knew how to build a world of light and seize this beautiful country, why would you need to find the God of Light?”
Yang Youniang's expression changed, and she looked a little disappointed.
She was sincerely looking for a God of Light. However, even in Manichaeism, there were very few people who believed in the God of Light like her.
"I don't want to be the God of Light, but... If your Manichaeism is willing to follow me, then I will save you from Yangzhou City. What do you think, Yang Ming?"
Yang Youniang's brows furrowed as if she wanted to continue negotiating with Zhang Xun.
At this moment, the bottom of the ship shook.
Zhang Xun stood up and nodded at Yang Youniang with a smile."However, no matter what, with your ruckus, you've directly given me a piece of fatty meat like Yangzhou City. If you Manichaeans want to follow me, then come with me. If you want to occupy Yangzhou City and fight against Li Tang, you can do whatever you want after I leave.”
With that, Zhang Xun led 600 soldiers and charged towards Yangzhou City.
The defense of Yangzhou City was empty. It was said that there were countless treasures in the mansion of the Governor of Yangzhou, Cui Liang. If they didn't take them now, when would they?
