"Since the Song Dynasty, the situation of civil and military affairs has appeared, and the status of military generals has been improved when the Ming Dynasty was founded, but after the change of Tumubao, it was completely suppressed by civil officials, and the phenomenon of civil and military nobility appeared again......"

"As for the Qing Dynasty, the settlement of foreign races in the Central Plains, originally the Han people thought that the national fortunes did not have much long-term, but no one thought that the Manchus inherited a full ...... of the Han people's means of governing the world."

mentioned Zaichun's ancestors, considering his face problem, Xiao Letian gave a little good face, "I have to say that Kangxi Ye is still very powerful, after the Qing Dynasty entered the customs, the earliest power was hit in the hands of the ministers, such as Dolgon, Aobai and the like, and these people still have the characteristics of ethnic minorities in governing the country, that is, simple, direct and rude......"

It wasn't until Kangxi Ye Zhizhi captured Ao Bai and pacified the three feudatories that his old man realized that the old tradition left by the Han people was really a treasure! Therefore, the later Manchu national policy was to raise the Eight Banners with high salaries, but not to allow the children of the Eight Banners to participate in civil affairs, that is, to put an end to the phenomenon of the Manchu military generals and governments grasping the government from the root......

"Control the Eight Banners, then the other Han armies such as the Green Battalion will be better controlled, the same continuation of the past system of civility and martial arts, although the Han ministers dare not be the master in front of the Eight Banners soldiers, but in front of the officers of the Green Battalion of the Han Army, it is absolutely overwhelming, and no one wants to turn over and make trouble!"

"In fact, going around and around, it is the same as the noble and lowly, and Kangxi Ye also absorbed a large number of Hanchen and adopted the policy of sharing the world with Hanchen...... In the future, go back to the Forbidden City and burn incense for your Kangxi lord, without his old man's wrist, you Manchurians still want to rule for 200 years!"

Jae Chun muttered to himself, "So, Feng Fu's explanation is still very reasonable?"

"Stupid!" Xiao Letian went up again when he heard this, "It's been a year with me, haven't you learned anything? You can't get around this circle? Who said that the nobles and martial arts would not rebel? Who said that the high-ranking officials and Houlu would not rebel if they raised the soldiers as pigs?"

"If a soldier has no thoughts, what is it? Isn't that a slave to military salaries? With the chaotic finances of the Manchu Qing Dynasty now, the military salaries cannot be paid, what loyalty do you want? Believe it or not, I spent money to poach all your soldiers? Don't you just need silver? There are people in this world who pay higher prices!"

Xiao Letian's low roar frightened Zaichun's little face was pale, and he almost didn't sit on the ground, he thought to himself! An army without ideas may be foolish and loyal, but such an army is more likely to be bribed and rebelled...... The rest of the matter Jae-chun didn't dare to think about anymore.

"Ask the master to teach me...... Ask the master to teach me......" Jae-chun knelt on the ground as soon as his knees weakened. Xiao Lotian sighed and dragged him up from the ground, and the topic finally reached the core and most taboo place.

"In fact, all your confusion arises because of power, whether it is the rule of the world by merchant, or the reform of the army, in fact, what makes you confused is the impact on the imperial power......

"The whole history of human politics is actually a pendulum game between centralization and decentralization, power is a social instrument, everyone wants to eat more and occupy more, as I once said, that is a huge pendulum, back and forth between the two critical points of centralization and decentralization. ”

"If the centralization of power develops to the extreme, it is dictatorship, and when the decentralization of power develops to the extreme, it will be divided until it is divided, why did Europe not form an effective unified empire? Why was the ancient Roman Empire doomed to perish? In fact, it has something to do with their geographical environment. ”

"Ancient European civilization is actually the Mediterranean civilization, open the map of the heyday of ancient Rome, you can see that the ruling core of this empire is actually within the limit radius of sea transportation......

"The mighty Roman legions swooped down on any of the rebellious provinces in swift ships with supplies, without worrying about supplies, for the whole Roman territory was within the reach of the infantry regiments on the Mediterranean coast, and no one would be interested in marching north to the cold wilderness ......"

"But the savages of the wilderness are interested in drinking wine on the warm shores of the Mediterranean, and the nomads of the desert want to taste the freshest olive oil...... Humanity's thirst for abundance cannot be quenched!"

"So the Mediterranean civilization was always invaded by foreign races from the east and north, and because there was no danger to be defended, even the mighty Roman Empire eventually fell. In the future, there will be no time for Europe to be unified, and every time a centralized state is formed, there will always be external and internal wars to destroy it, so the ultimate development of Europe is decentralization......"

Xiao Letian subconsciously clicked his finger on the table, "Now I'll test you, why can the Central Plains civilization form centralization and even autocracy?"

Jae-chun has not studied with the master in vain this year, he carefully thought about the lessons taught by the previous master, and slowly said, "It should have something to do with geography...... The Central Plains is surrounded by oceans, mountains, deserts, and icy frozen land, and although it has been attacked by the nomads of the north, including our Manchurians, it is generally safe......"

"Not to mention, the Great Wall built by the Han people with all their national strength, that defense system has existed for thousands of years, and it has indeed played a very important role, relying on that kind of fortification, it is not impossible to win more with less!"

"The long-term peace has given the ruler enough time to centralize power, coupled with the Confucian idea of three outlines and five constants, so the emperor of the Central Plains is the most powerful emperor in the world!"

Zaichun's little face was flushed, and he was very excited, but his analysis made Xiao Letian nod and shake his head, "That's right, your analysis is very good, very correct! It's a pity that that's already correct in the past, and the world in the future will not give China such a good environment......

Xiao Lotian looked at Zaichun coldly, "You must remember that it is the times that create heroes, not heroes who create the times, because China has such a unique geographical environment, so there is such a historical development...... And Europe has its own geographical characteristics, and people will naturally develop another set of political systems......"

"This is just the law of survival of the fittest! You must remember that since the war with the British that occurred in the Daoguang period, the geographical environment on which our system depends has undergone tremendous changes, and this is an irreversible trend......

"In the world to come, the enemy will march frantically from the sea, and the strategic depth that the literati believe in will become more and more ineffective in the development of science and technology......

"No matter whether you want to change or not, anyway, people outside the people are getting stronger day by day, and China can only become more and more backward under the growth of one another......
