Since the Accounting: A Chronicle of the Roman Khanate

Chapter 160 Iron Fist Maiden
Theodora is used to the "wonderful ideas" of these people, but the current situation still often makes her feel dizzy.

"Okay, I understand what you mean. But now our situation is like this, what are you going to do?" She had no choice but to ask: "Is there a priesthood dedicated to Miss Jeanna?"

"Then the opposition you have to face is too great, and it's not worth it." Wang Da Lama replied seriously: "Although our church has some incompatibility with the Greeks and Russians, after such a long period of running-in, Everyone has gotten used to it a lot. In this case, it’s not worth it to make a big move again.”

"It's not impossible to insist on implementing this policy. But does it make sense?" He asked rhetorically.

"We did have a lot of disputes with them in order to establish the Romanian Church, but as a result, we got a nearly theocratic and efficient court and church. We promoted education, improved management, and trained soldiers so that Rome grew stronger and the whole country continued to benefit from it."

"That's why, starting from our predecessor, Patriarch Zhang, everyone has been under pressure and working hard to implement it. In the end, even the Greeks who once opposed us began to recognize and join us after seeing our achievements."

"If we grant priesthood to women...it's not impossible." He thought for a while and said, "However, how can this policy be maintained?"

"We don't consider the teachings or anything else, but the position itself. Our clergy is limited. When women are promoted, someone has to go down." He reminded: "Who will make this sacrifice? Will they be willing? ?”

"Take a step back, even if we stick to this policy. But the old man is not too young. When I retire, will the new patriarch change it back? Will the Great Khan and the ministers still support him?"

"So, an order can't be given with a pat on the head. If the decision is not appropriate, not only will the desired effect not be achieved, but it will have a negative effect."

"If you want to maintain this policy, it's very simple, just let everyone continue to see the benefits of doing so. Then the question comes, what benefits does this have for us now?"

Everyone was speechless for a while.

"What I said may be a bit harsh, but the princess doesn't need to pay too much attention." He shook the whisk and said with a smile: "Actually, this is not a high requirement, just let the heavenly father perform another miracle."

"Not to mention anything else, if a woman is appointed as a priest, the heavenly father will let Mr. Guo's steam brother directly move, then I will resign now and let her be the chief shepherd capital."

Theodora and little Jeanna looked at each other, as if they didn't expect that Lama Wang, who had always been confused, could think so clearly in this regard.

"Brother Kang likes to prophesy the future, do the math for them, and see if someone like Jeanne can go to France to become a bishop anytime." Tuo Huan began to encourage Guo Kang.

"This, just take it step by step." Guo Kang said: "In our farm, there are women as teachers. After a long time, we can formalize this measure and allow capable people to take up higher official positions."

"Our bishops and priests are essentially administrative and educational officials. Therefore, when these conditions are ripe, they can be transferred directly. Instead of making a few special cases for publicity, it is better to popularize education in a down-to-earth manner. Wait for everyone's education level to rise. , If you don’t let them work, you feel it’s a waste.”

"That's it." Tuo Huan thought for a while, and felt reasonable: "So, how long do you think it will take for us to realize it?"

"The richer and stronger we are, the faster we can realize it." Guo Kang also thought for a moment, and said: "In my lifetime, I think the pilot project can be realized. As for the full rollout, it may have to wait for Brother Steam to mature. About... 200 years ?”

Theodora sighed and said nothing.

"That's okay, it's smoother than I expected." Tuo Huan remembered something again, and continued to ask: "The most prosperous and powerful country today is the Ming Dynasty in Serris. How long will it take them?"

"They don't have a church, and the officials are completely theocratic. If they are the leaders of folk religious groups, they can do it now; if they are officials appointed by the imperial court... then it will be much more difficult." Guo Kang pointed out: "Moreover, the Ming Dynasty will There will be no catastrophe, and it’s hard to say. However, in Serris’ worst case, it’s just... more than 400 years is enough.”

"My God..." Little Jeanna also sighed.

"What about France? When will the Roman Catholic Church produce a female bishop?" Tuo Huan asked.

This time Guo Kang sighed.

"I don't know." He spread his hands together: "It's beyond my ability to predict."

"Hey?"

Tuo Huan and Xiao Rang Na stared at each other with wide eyes: "It's over, Guo Banxian doesn't know anymore."

"What kind of nickname is this?" Guo Kang said speechlessly.

"Okay, okay, it's too far away. Let's continue training." Lama Wang clapped his hands and told everyone to calm down: "Princess, if you are interested, you can also take a look here."

"Yes, let's see if we are serious." Tuo Huan smiled, and took out a wooden wheel from the pile of debris next to him.

"What is this?" asked Theodora.

"This is the miraculous sign of that saint." The Great Lama Wang said, pointing to a holy image on the wall: "Look, St. Catherine of Alexandria, the general image is a young girl with a crown, The symbol of the symbol is the wheel with the blade on the back."

"This thing is said to be an instrument of torture in ancient Rome. The blade was fixed on the edge of the wheel, and then pressed over to kill the prisoner. After Catherine was caught by the Roman emperor, the emperor planned to use this instrument of torture to execute her, but she reached out and touched the wheel, and the wheel snapped. Broken. The early church regarded this event as a miracle, so the wheel became her symbol."

"This saint is also very popular in England and France, and there are many churches that worship her. It is said that the king of England took part of her holy remains from the monastery in Egypt." This miracle is also good for our future publicity.”

"Strange, isn't it." Guo Kang commented: "Using the torture tools used to deal with others as symbols."

"What's the matter? Brother Tian really died on the cross. Didn't she die?" Tuo Huan pointed out: "According to the legend, she was beheaded by a Roman officer with a sword in the end. She didn't use a sword as a symbol. Interesting enough."

"Uh... I really didn't expect such a wicked symbol..."

"Then what are you performing? Let her break this wheel too?" Theodora looked at little Jeanne, obviously not convinced.

"Actually, it's also possible, but it requires skill." Tuo Huan said, "Come on, heroine Jeanna, you can perform."

"it is good."

As Da Rangna said, she rolled up her sleeves.Tuo Huan held the wheel tightly, while she stroked her fingers on the wheel.

Afterwards, she slowly clenched her fingers back, then suddenly exerted force and punched in an instant.With a sound of bumping, the wooden wheel collapsed and flew a few fragments on the spot, and several obvious cracks also extended.

Tuo Huan took the wheel, broke it, and showed it to Theodora: "Look, it's already cracked."

"The toughness of the wood for this scrap wheel is relatively good. We can replace it with more brittle wood when we perform, and let her gather more energy to achieve the effect of instant bursting. Due to the short distance of force, the distant What the audience sees is the effect of 'exploding'."

"This is also an assassination technique." Rangna said proudly: "Little Rangna has a very good understanding, and she has improved rapidly in the past two days. If you practice more, you will definitely be able to master it."

"So, you are here to practice boxing?" Theodora still looked surprised.

"It's practicing boxing according to the deeds of the saint." Lama Wang corrected.
