The Unjust System and My War-Crazy Self

"A great general has his own way of dying.

"King of Dian, if you are still a man, give me a quick death."

"I refuse." Shu Yichao found it unbelievable.

"Do I look easy to talk to?

You're all prisoners, yet you're so arrogant and make demands?"

“It seems the brutality value is still too low.

Shu Yichao muttered, then waved his hand.

"Go and farm, too."

"Heavenly King, you, you..." Shang Kexi's eyes widened. This guy really has no sense of decency at all.

"I what I?"

“I tell you

“Your whole family is treated this way.

“No, you!!

Just like that, amidst a burst of mournful weeping and shrill howling, the Prince of Pingnan, who had wielded tyranny in Guangzhou for over a decade, along with hundreds of his vassal vassals, was reduced to ashes!

"Brothers, keep killing!

“Not a single piece of armor will be left!

Disappeared along with the Shang family, tens of thousands of remaining soldiers in Guangzhou City who were fighting stubbornly also disappeared.

On this day, the entire ground of Guangzhou was dyed a dazzling blood red by the flowing blood.

Chapter 756-Do you have a concession here?

Even after several days, the pungent smell of blood was still so strong that it seemed impossible to dissipate.

A disgusting smell first enters the human mouth and nose, and then fiercely stimulates the stomach and intestines, causing the human internal organs to spasm.

Such a terrible smell, coupled with the piles of grayish-white, hideous-looking Jingguan outside the city, makes it even more terrifying.

Even the bravest person would be terrified and feel his legs trembling.

“What a horrible scene.

Amid the squeaking sound of the carriage wheels, Alexia lifted the curtain of the carriage, took a look outside, and immediately closed it.

"When I came here a month ago."

“It’s still a bustling city with tons of people.

“But just one month later, here…

"well.'

Alexia sighed and shook her head.

"Even the father and son of the King of Pingnan, who once ruled a region, were first planted in the ground, then their heads were chopped off and their bodies were cut into pieces after their death..."

"May God have mercy on them." Sitting opposite Alexia was an elderly monk wearing a gray monk's robe that was washed almost white.

He made a prayer gesture and murmured a prayer under his breath.

"...For He so loved God and the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life, whether the world believes or not..."

"It should be understood that only devout believers can be saved. It is not the end of everything when the body dies. At the final judgment, those whose names are not on the list of life will be cast into the eternal fire..."

"Okay." Seeing that the gray-robed monk seemed to be going on and on, Alexia couldn't hold it in any longer.

She interrupted the Gray Friar's prayers.

"Archbishop, we are going to meet a very powerful nobleman today.

"Whether our Jesuit Society can help us shepherd more sheep for the Lord in this land depends entirely on your performance today."

"I advise you to save your energy.

“May the blessings God bestows upon you be used in the most critical places.”

Yes, both Alexia and the Gray Friars are members of the Eastern Jesuit Order.

For Catholics in Rome, the first half of this century was filled with profound frustration.

After more than a hundred years of verbal and physical battles, bloody fights, repeated struggles and tug-of-war, Catholicism and Protestantism suffered an unprecedented defeat.

Protestantism took advantage of the emerging classes of the Age of Exploration, the tide of the Reformation, and the corruption and division of the Catholic camp itself to continuously capture the Catholic faith positions one by one.

With the end of the Thirty Years' War and the English Civil War, even the Pope had to admit that the Catholic Church's efforts to eradicate Protestant heresy had failed.

The world of faith of Christians in Central and Western Europe was thus divided, and never again regained the unity of the past.

In addition to internal troubles, there are also external threats.

The Ottoman Empire was now intensifying its offensive against Central Europe. Austria and Venice, which were on the front line against the Ottoman Empire, were caught in a dilemma and suffered a continuous defeat.

The scimitars of the Ottoman pagans could at any time smash these two weak shields, repeating the scene of the collapse of the Roman Empire.

In this predicament of being attacked from all sides, trapped internally and externally, and becoming increasingly unfavorable, Catholicism was desperately looking for a way out.

For example-

Taking advantage of the great era of navigation and the opportunity of geographical discovery, people were sent to the world.

The Catholic faith was vigorously spread in Europe, Africa, America, East Asia and other places, increasing the number of Catholic believers throughout the world, and then relying on the advantage in size to overwhelm Protestant heretics and pagans.

They have already succeeded once with this strategy.

When the Roman Empire collapsed, the Roman Church was just one of the five major dioceses of the empire, on an equal footing with other popes.

However, the Roman Catholic Church relied on its tireless missionary work to various barbarians, prompting them to convert to Catholicism one by one, thereby greatly expanding the number of Catholic believers and sphere of influence.

In the end, the Roman Church stood out and became the dominant faith in almost all of Europe, and for a time it was above all secular kings.

Therefore, as the faithful followers of the Pope and the fanatical believers of Catholicism, the members of the Society of Jesus, with their fanatical piety, did not hesitate to risk shipwrecks, plagues and wars in this critical moment.

They traveled through mountains and rivers, and experienced countless hardships and dangers, to a foreign land thousands of miles away from Rome to spread their beliefs.

Of course, if you want to preach, it is obviously impossible to rely solely on passion.

Therefore, advanced natural sciences, military technology, and painting and sculpture skills became the stepping stones for Jesuit members to enter other countries.

Those who did well, such as Matteo Ricci and Johann Adam Schall von Bell, even became guests of honor of the emperor.

And now, Alexia found another opportunity

After all, she was a pirate, a businessman, and also a devout Catholic, so of course she had to help her brothers at this time.

"...Lord Pereira." The gray-robed archbishop stopped praying silently and then said.

“Thank you for all you do for the glory of the Lord.”

"If you hadn't contacted the King of Dian in time, who knows how much longer the spread of our Lord's glory would have been delayed.

"But before I can get an audience with the King of Dian."

"I still need to ask, do you have any opinion on this King of Dian?"

"Very handsome." Alexia answered without hesitation.

"Ahem." After coughing twice and hiding the blush on her face, Alexia explained to the gray-robed cardinal.

"This King Dian of Meng Country occupied one-third of the empire's former territory in less than a year."

"He is a valiant warrior and a brutal commander. People say he has a good chance of completing a nine-cauldron change in this land."

"Also, according to the information I heard

"This King of Dian came from a frontier region, never learned to read, and had some misunderstandings about ancient texts.

"......Yeah." The Gray Cardinal nodded silently, constantly sketching the image of Shu Yichao in his mind.

A young, handsome, brutal and cunning commander with not very high cultural level.

If you want to arouse the interest of this kind of person and then preach to him, perhaps...

"Click."

The carriage stopped.

"Archbishop, please get out..." Alexia lifted the curtain of the carriage.

“We’re here.

"Skip, skip, why are there so many cutscenes!?" Shu Yichao pressed the buttons frantically.

After the capture of Guangdong, a bunch of policies emerged.

In most cases, Shu Yichao never made such a comment.

Then system 12345 became anxious.

Skip, skip, all skip.

If I keep jumping like this, I'll even skip the meeting with Alexia and the others.

Oh my, Alexia finally got to visit Shu Yichao.

If you don't even see each other, how can you cultivate the relationship later?

When will the host be able to open the Crystal Palace?

So System 12345 hurriedly spoke out to stop it.

[Host, please don't!!]

Shu Yichao, who wanted to continue skipping, was urgently stopped by system 12345.

"uh-huh?

【Have you seen this incident?】

【This must not be skipped-

[There is a big surprise waiting for you, the host!]

"Surprise, what surprise?" Shu Yichao curiously opened the menu under the prompt of the system 12345, and completely ignored the extra people in the room.

Hey, it’s about policy. It’s always like this when something happens. The background changes all the time. He’s used to it.

[...]

[You encountered a new event.

"What incident

"I'll take a look."

"

[The Eastern Archbishop of the Society of Jesus comes to visit you.]

[He seems to be hoping to spread the teachings of Catholicism here with your permission, and for this purpose, he seems to have brought some gifts…]

"Are you here to open a church?" Shu Yichao laughed.

"Send eggs?

"If I send eggs, I can be a believer too."

Now that they were received, the Gray Cardinal and Alexia who were sitting opposite him were puzzled.

As expected of the "King of Madness", he seems to be somewhere between asleep and sleepwalking, and he keeps saying some weird words.

[Select Yes.]

[The spread of Catholicism increased by 3.5%, cultural exchange increased by 5%, ship trade increased, and the spread of military technology and natural sciences increased by 10%.]

[Obtaining untranslated originals, such as the Shixian Calendar and the Complete Book of Mining and Metallurgy]

[Open the hidden route, and the speed of the Cultural Revolution and Industrial Revolution will be slightly accelerated.]

[Select No.]

[Territory stability increased by 5%, opening the closed-door policy route.
