The First Warlord of the Republic of China

.

spnps: The second update arrives!

Night fell.

The Shannan Armed Police Brigade arrested a local chieftain who participated in the rally, and Liu Zhengming immediately tortured the chieftain.

In front of all kinds of horrible instruments of torture in Tibet, the chieftain didn't have a long time to parry, and he just confessed the whole content of the meeting.

After learning that these serf farmers, chieftains, and temples were about to launch a rebellion, Liu Zhengming immediately assembled his troops overnight. [

After the assembly call sounded, teams of armed police rushed out of the barracks that had just been repaired.

"Quick, quick, quick, all gather, all gather."

Soon a battalion of more than 300 armed police officers and soldiers gathered, and Liu Zhengming immediately issued a combat mission: "We must pre-empt these rebels before they launch a rebellion, and first arrest all the rebels in the city."

Operational orders were quickly issued to the squadrons.

"All set out, and if there is any resistance, they will all be shot dead on the spot." Liu Zhengming ordered.

The barriers in front of the gate of the camp were removed, and cars full of armed police officers and soldiers roared out of the camp and rushed into the night.

A counter-insurgency operation began immediately.

While the armed police were dispatched, the Shannan National Defense Force also received a request for coordination, and the Shannan National Defense Force station immediately dispatched a regiment to suppress the rebellion.

The serf farmers, chieftains, and temples were still in the process of preparation, when the armed police suddenly blocked the Shannan City, gathered the few Han people in the city for protection, and began hunting down the rebels throughout the city.

During the search, many chieftains and temples resisted, but they were all shot dead on the spot by armed police officers and soldiers armed with submachine guns and other weapons.

It was a bloody night.

Those chieftains and monks were shot to death and arrested overnight. These brutal rulers and magic sticks who oppressed the Tibetan people, enslaved and tortured the Tibetan people suffered a devastating blow in one night.

……

The General Headquarters of the Tibet National Defense Forces issued an order to completely eliminate the rebels two days after the rebellion broke out, and [-] National Defense Forces launched a thorough suppression in Tibet.

The order issued by the military department is:

"If you want to liberate the Tibetan people, you must completely overthrow the brutal rulers who currently rule Tibet. And confiscate their property and use it to aid the Tibetan people."

Two days later, members of the Religious Reform Commission of the Republic of China arrived in Lhasa by plane to carry out a thorough reform of religious forces in Tibet.

"We don't need any system of theocracy to appear on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, and we don't allow religion to become impure. The religions of our Chinese nation are all non-extreme and self-cultivating religions. Although Tibetan Lamaism has practice However, there are many unscrupulous people mixed in. Oppressing ordinary people in the name of religion has violated the guidance of Sakyamuni. For this reason, the Religious Reform Commission of the Republic of China decided to confiscate all religious and clergy In addition, the Tibetan clergy will be assessed, and all those who fail to practice Buddhism will be eliminated. The clergy who pass the assessment will be provided with food and clothing by the government of the Republic of China.”

At the meeting, Master Shan Kongzhi, president of the Buddhist Branch of the Religious Reform Commission of the Republic of China, delivered a speech. [

Master Kongzhi is an eminent monk of Chinese Buddhism. In order to make Buddhism a pure holy place for practice, he accepted the invitation of the Republic of China.

Buddhism, indeed, has a positive meaning.

As far as those practitioners are concerned, cultivating the Tao is too ethereal.Taoism talks about hiddenness, if fate is not taught at all.Cultivating Buddhism is relatively simple. Although the achievement is not as high as that of Taoism, temples provide people with a holy place for practice.

This is why so many warriors in ancient times went to Shaolin Temple to become monks, thus forming 72 stunts.

The 72 stunts of Shaolin Temple were not created by the Buddhist school. The reason why they are named as the creation of the Buddhist school is just a kind of respect for the Buddhist school, so they are named after the Buddhist school.

Ancient Shaolin Temple.It is equivalent to a sacred place for warriors to communicate and a distribution center for martial arts.

Among them there are South Shaolin and North Shaolin.

Also because many warriors went to Shaolin Temple to become a monk, monks and soldiers can be seen in the past dynasties after the appearance of Shaolin Temple, and they also played an active role in resisting the invasion of foreign enemies.

The most despised branch of Buddhism in China is the Lamaism, a branch of Buddhism that meddles in politics.

As a practitioner, once you have desires, you will no longer be pure.So what if you can cultivate supernatural powers?In the end, it's still just crooked ways.

Lamaism is a relatively extreme branch of Buddhism.

The reincarnation system has some methods. When a monk reaches a certain level of practice, the Yin God can indeed freely reincarnate after the death of the body.

The xx fourteenth, who was exiled abroad in later generations, predicted his reincarnation place in Russia.

I don't know if it's true or not, a monk who is obsessed with material desires.The realm is very elevated.

Ordinary monks, if they successfully practice the Dharma in one life, they will continue to be reincarnated.Of course, it is not known whether it is the ninth reincarnation.

But reincarnation does exist.

In order to still be a leader after death, Tibetan Buddhist leaders came up with the thing of reincarnation in the Ming Dynasty, which really makes people feel comparative.

In the Ming Dynasty, Lamaism persuaded the Mongols to believe in Lamaism, so that the current model of the unity of politics and religion was able to develop.

The Tupan in history was not such a system. At least the Tupan in history was a force with relatively strong military strength and a clear sense of development.

After the Lamaism ruled Tibet, the society stagnated and was on the verge of collapse.The brutal oppression and exploitation of the feudal serfdom under theocracy severely suffocated the vigor and vitality of the society, making Tibet stagnant for a long time.

Historically, even until the middle of the 20th century, Tibetan society was still in an extremely closed and backward state. Modern industry and commerce, modern science and technology, education, culture, and health services were almost blank. Natural nomadic pastoralism, single and degraded agricultural and pastoral species, lack of improvement in labor tools, and extremely low levels of productivity and development of the entire society.The vast number of serfs suffered from hunger and cold, and their survival was difficult. Countless people died of hunger, poverty and disease.In towns such as Lhasa, Shigatse, Qamdo, and Nagqu, there are crowds of beggars, and old people, women, and children beggars can be seen everywhere.

Although Tibet is a plateau region and most areas are relatively cold, agricultural resources are still abundant in Lhasa.Originally, to improve productivity, how could such a small number of people not be able to support them? [

But in today's Tibet, the population is constantly decreasing, but the poor are constantly increasing.

It is equivalent to being under cruel oppression, ordinary people do not get the nutrients to survive at all, and even hunting has to pay taxes to chieftains and temples.

Tibetan society is full of contradictions and crises. Since the establishment of the Tibet Border Region of the Republic of China and the National Defense Forces entered Tibet in a large scale, the serfs have continuously launched petitions, fled, resisted rent and trade, and armed resistance in order to get rid of the desperate situation.

This is also the main reason why the Republic of China wants to carry out reforms in Tibet.

This reform was also supported by the majority of serfs.

For religious reform, Master Kongzhi believes that those monks who are selling dog meat and using religion to rule in the name of religion should be eliminated.

The method is also very simple, the test.

As a practitioner, first of all, although Buddhist scriptures are not required to be memorized verbatim, at least one must be able to understand the meaning of them.

If you don't even know the basics of Buddhism, what kind of monk is you?

That is a fake monk, a fake monk who became a monk for profit.

Only by eliminating these fake monks can Buddhism be truly peaceful.

As for those real monks, people who practice sincerely, they don't care about those extraneous things. There is nothing wrong with handing over those temple properties to the government.

In the case that the temple has no private property, the state will provide food, clothing, housing and transportation, so that they can devote more attention to their practice, and better see through the red dust and get rid of the sea of ​​suffering.

From the perspective of the country, monks do not do production, and it is indeed not of great benefit to the country.

But in a society, there must be some people who are obsessed with the world of mortals, and some who see through the world of mortals.For those groups who are disillusioned, the state should also provide them with a condition for self-cultivation.

Because no one knows when he will see through the world of mortals.

In history, many warlords who were powerful for a while in the Republic of China also escaped into Buddhism.

Sun Chuanfang, Duan Qirui, Yang Du...

After the chaotic war between the warlords, these people have all escaped into Buddhism one after another.

Wang Shizhen, one of the three masters of Beiyang, hid at home to practice Taoism in the early Republic of China, and Yuan Shikai's invitation to become an official was also handled.

In this hustle and bustle of the industrial age, under the acquired social model of increasingly materialistic desires, the Republic of China needs a quiet environment for practice.

This time, Master Kongzhi also brought more than a dozen eminent Buddhist monks to take charge of the reform of Tibetan Buddhism.

In the Ming Dynasty, Lamaism was able to persuade the leaders of Mongolian tribes to believe in Buddhism. Naturally, this was by showing supernatural powers. Otherwise, who would believe them?

In other words, without magical powers to fool those Mongolian tribal leaders, how could they accept the theocratic power of Lamaism.

Naturally, these high-ranking monks in China also have supernatural powers. They came to Tibet to deal with those monks who hindered the reform, so as to ensure the smooth progress of the reform.

Those monks with supernatural powers may be fine against one or two people, that is, directly against the leader of the invaders, but they will definitely not be able to deal with the crushing of the state's violent machine.

Just like the ancient White Lotus Sect, although the White Lotus Sect develops believers so that they can use the power of these beliefs to create some spells, the more people believe, the more people believe, but the power can be divided into big and small. It can compete with material power, but it can never stop the violent state machine with powerful military power.

Along with them came a large photography team, more than 300 photographers, whose task was to photograph a large number of Tibetan religions and the tragedies of Tibetan society under the rule of Tibet.
