Since the Accounting: A Chronicle of the Roman Khanate

Chapter 359 Forming a Commando

In Guo Kang's view, this incident is a classic case of the decline in the quality of the church.Ordinary barbarians found that they had an advantage, and it was normal for their mentality to drift, but the church followed suit.Then this church has been working for thousands of years.

The church was able to flourish in the first place because it was more civilized than ordinary people.Even with all kinds of corruption, internal strife, and paranoia, the overall moral level is much higher than that of secular nobles.I am really sorry for Brother Tian and Saint Peter for being reduced to this state.

And the consequences of this are very obvious.As long as you fight against foreigners, you must fight against foreign religions, and the people do have the ability to fight against foreign religions. In 1900, after the Boxers became active, they quickly destroyed a large number of church forces in North China.

According to the church's own perspective, during the past six months, the Boxers created nearly 200 Catholic saints and more than 2000 Orthodox saints at one time.Considering that in the past [-] years, the total number of saints in the church has only exceeded [-], and this efficiency has already surpassed that of the Roman Legion...

As for the Protestant sects, since there is no unified organization, it is impossible to say how much they lost.Considering that the performance of these people is more chaotic, it is probably not much better.

In fact, the quality of Protestant pastors is so low that foreigners themselves cannot bear it.The commander of the Eight-Power Allied Forces, Waldsee, specifically accused American pastors, saying that these people were seriously unqualified in terms of morality and professionalism, which made Germans who also believed in Protestantism look down on it.In this case, religion itself is completely a side effect.

So this is also an important reminder.Religion is indeed a useful tool, but the premise of its usefulness is that it can bring about a better situation for everyone.The most important thing to keep awake is to teach yourself, otherwise you will definitely overturn.

The same is true now in the city.If you don't take people seriously, then it's useless to talk about scriptures.The Ross people have never heard of the scriptures, and their culture even belongs to the kind with a strong religious atmosphere.But in this situation, they cannot be mobilized by lecturing the scriptures.

Although these Ross people are not very good at resisting, they are very good at laying down and grinding.The entire village culture has this "soft resistance" atmosphere everywhere.If you want to pull these people together and make them motivated to farm and fight, you must show real sincerity, and you must convince the other party.This is something that routine services and prayers cannot provide.

Father Mikhail and others who actually had contact with the Ross people must be more familiar with these questions.

"Then we've settled it." He finally said to the priests, "I'll trouble you all these few days."

"Why don't we act today?" Father Mikhail said suddenly.

"Today?" Guo Kang was a little surprised.

"The more you investigate this kind of thing, the more people will be alarmed." Father Mikhail told him: "The situation in the slums is very complicated, and it is also very conspicuous that people from the church are there to conduct censorship. I think there are After setting the initial goal, you can take immediate action.”

Guo Kang really hadn't considered this aspect before, but after thinking about it, he thought it made sense.

"And do we have enough?" he asked.

"We can call people." Father Andre said, "Artyom and the others are in the church, and they can call more than 20 people. The Patriarch should also be able to provide some people."

"Yesterday, I asked him to send investigators to investigate, and they will come back in the evening to report on the first day's situation." Guo Kang thought for a while and said, "I'll take Wu Han with me. Let's see if there is any return." The church knights who are idle should be able to call some."

"This is enough, and there is no need to call everyone up." Father Mikhail pointed out: "Too many people is not necessarily a good thing. When entering, it may be better to keep a low profile."

Guo Kang felt that the old man was quite experienced, so he decided to listen to him again.He nodded, saying that he would choose the most capable ones. As for Father Ross, there is no need for more than 20 people to rush over, just choose the most suitable ones.

And there is no need to worry about the combat effectiveness of those people.These monks are all ruthless people who dare to run around in the wild "land" and often go back and forth between settlements.Among other things, to be able to live for so many years, the survivability must be at full capacity...

Of course, this matter does not mean that it is enough to rush over and hack a few prisoners to death.In this regard, Guo Kang is very careful.He asked Father Andre to find someone, and then called on Father Mikhail to take him to find Lama Wang.

If you want to use the power of the church, you must have a suitable reason, because the Roman church only has the duty of review and investigation, and does not have the power to divide by actual punishment.In other words, they can arrest people on charges of disrupting order, engaging in incitement, and endangering the authority of the church and the state, but they cannot conduct public trials in public as Guo Kang wants, so as to promote publicity to ordinary residents.

This case can be used as a reference in the future, so Guo Kang hopes not to leave any loopholes as much as possible.But the management of the city by the Purple Horde Khanate is really chaotic, and it is even more impossible not to disturb others.

Guo Kang regretted a little, and let Theodora go without asking her.But she was going to a more important occasion, and it would be unrealistic to find her now.So, after thinking about it, he decided to do his best with the resources in his hands.

First of all, it is on the side of Lama Wang.Because the investigation has already started, it is enough to directly say that the situation there is dangerous and that we need to increase our strength to avoid accidents.Go through a procedure here, and it can almost be solved. At worst, the "Grey Knights" who stand guard at the Empress Temple should be pulled away. Anyway, they are here, mainly as a guard of honor, and they are idle when they are idle.

Later, after Lama Xiang Wang and several other church officials emphasized the importance of this matter to the church and Ross believers, Guo Kang left Father Mikhail here to go through the process and left first.

He brought the documents from Lama Wang's side, as well as the records handed in by the inspectors, and asked Father Marco to come with him.The two, together with several church personnel, ran all the way to the Ministry of War.

Guo Kang found his adoptive father and told him that there was a case in Ross's new army, and the church has now found out about it.However, it is inconvenient to act directly on the church side, so I have to find someone here.

But his adoptive father told him that he had no one on his side.

Like most places in the world, there is no perfect police system in the metropolis.Although there are indeed police officers, but to be honest, it has become such a mess and no one has reported it. These police officers must be hopeless.

Not to mention that at this time, even in many modern countries, it is normal for the police to be unable to enter the slums.If they could be trusted, they wouldn't be raising such perennial felons.

Therefore, Guo Kang insisted that the army must be used for this matter.
