1609 Seeds of Hatred
The reason why a person grows is destined to be stimulated by a series of people and events since the next life, which produces a certain kind of pressure, which forces people to keep moving forward. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
It is difficult for a person in good times to grow, and only when appropriate adversity makes people feel a certain amount of pain, he has the motivation to change. If Jae-chun is trapped in the capital forever, surrounded by a group of acting actors, and pretends to be peaceful in the world, he can't feel a sense of crisis, then he will have no motivation to reform.
In real history, Zaichun's education is extremely unsuccessful, as an emperor has just taken charge of the government not to solve the more serious problems of the empire, but to rebuild the Old Summer Palace, perhaps in his eyes, the big scar that was burned off by the Jingshi is the biggest problem of the empire, as long as the scar is repaired, the prosperous era of Kangqian will come again.
Think about it, how naïve! But it's not Jae-chun's fault, what kind of thinking can a sixteen-year-old child have? If you can't meet a good teacher to educate you, you can only become like him.
The Holy Ancestor Kangxi ascended the throne at the age of eight, and his pro-government performance in his teens was much better than that of Zaichun, that was because Kangxi really met a grandmother who taught him the real thing, the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang, as well as the teachings of Chen Tingjing, Xiong Cixu, Wu Ciyou and other great Confucians, and even Western masters, Tang Ruowang, Nan Huairen and so on.
Kangxi's ability to become a generation of saints is inseparable from the excellent education he received in his early years, but Zaichun obviously doesn't have that luck, there are many flatterers around him, wolf ambitions, and countless villains who steal men and prostitutes in his heart.
Failed education, distorted environment, and finally shaped a tragic emperor!
Life growth can not be separated from pressure, but pressure also needs a degree, when the pressure is greater than a person's tolerance limit to a certain extent, that kind of change will appear genetic mutations, to a small is called a character defect, to a large is a perversion.
And with everything Jae-chun is facing today, this battle in the Far East is already a bit too stressful for the thirteen-year-old. If Xiao Lotian was at the scene today, he would definitely not let Zaichun know about Qiqihar's information, because the master knew his apprentice too well, and he would not let the thirteen-year-old Zaichun bear so much pressure alone.
Xiao Lotian will suppress this information for at least three years, so he will tell him when he is in power after he is sixteen years old, so that his heart will be firmer and more prepared, and the young saplings will not be able to experience the typhoon too early, which will be broken.
Whether to bring Zaichun to the front line in this Far East battle, Xiao Letian had been entangled many times before, and then he nodded and agreed under the bitter plea of Emperor Tongzhi.
According to Xiao Letian's original intention, Jae-chun's age should be the stage of gradually trying to understand the war, rather than being thrown into the cruel battlefield all at once.
Just imagine a thirteen-year-old child running into the Shura Hell in a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, watching the human internal organs and stumps and broken arms soaked in a pool of blood all over the ground, and watching the lives being crushed into powder, this huge impact is unbearable even for adults, let alone a child.
In Xiao Letian's plan, Jae Chun should always be by his side, looking at the battlefield from afar, to feel the atmosphere of war instead of understanding the cruelty of war all at once, and not let him go directly to the front line to get close to death.
This is a great harm to the child's heart! But Jae-chun, a disobedient idiot, actually sneaked out of the command headquarters and ran to the front line, almost causing the entire defense line to be lost.
The final closure seems to be a punishment for Jae Chun on the surface, but in fact, it is more of Xiao Letian's love for Jae Chun, he hopes that Jae Chun can think alone and not run around, stay away from the war and stay away from the land of human annihilation, and wait for him to completely digest the impact of this bloody war and get rid of the shadows, and then contact with the deeper evil of human nature.
It's a pity that people are not as good as heaven, Jaechun is destined to be a tragedy, Xiao Letian is not around, no one can understand the essence of this educational theory, and as a result, there is a new spiritual impact or detonation.
This battle in the Far East was a major milestone in the life of Emperor Tongzhi, and his character began to change at this moment, very subtle but irreversible, which is also the initial germination and origin of the great tragedy three years later.
Xiao Lotian once had the possibility of portraying Zaichun as an excellent Manchu emperor, and even Xiao Lotian thought about including the Manchu group led by Zaichun into the category of the Chinese people, but that was only a possibility and a hope.
After this war, Zaichun underwent strange changes, and at the delicate moment when the tumor was just born, Xiao Letian, the only psychiatrist who could remove the tumor, was not by his side.
After all, fate has its own set of operating rules, and it is not easy to reverse fate.
"Ah......h Sneezing ...... ......Three huge sneezes sounded on the horse-drawn plow, and Xiao Letian, who was wrapped in a bearskin coat, rubbed his nose and scolded, "Who is talking about me?" or is someone scolding me?"
The frozen Amur River is covered with snow, but now that the weather is a little warmer, you can see a trace of black lines in the white expanse in the distance, which is the first snow to melt on the sunny side, revealing the dark soil below.
The volunteers went north from the sea by boat, and 20,000 elites landed at the mouth of the Amur River.
Each of the soldiers was also equipped with a sleigh and marched unusually fast on the flat ice.
As early as last year, the intelligence officers of the Misty Imp had produced a detailed topographical map of the Amur River, marking in detail all the areas where the Ussuri River could be crossed by a large army, from the point where the Ussuri River joins to the sea.
Theoretically, the ice surface of the Amur River in Heilongjiang is very solid in the harsh winter, and any place can be used for people and horses to walk freely, and it seems that the Russian Cossack reinforcements can cross the river at any point.
However, the crossing of a large army of more than 10,000 people is completely different from that of a small army of a few dozen people, and they must consider factors such as the road on the opposite bank, the topography of the mountains and forests, and the structure of the mountain when crossing the river.
No commander would be stupid enough to let tens of thousands of troops enter the primeval forest, and no one would let the delicate horses go on the rugged mountain paths.
The army is not an expedition, and their march must follow a lot of rules, so the entire large river defense line Qing and the Volunteers only need to hold more than ten important crossings, and the rest of the places are simply not available for Tsarist Russia to enter.
Every time he went to a strategic place to cross the river, Xiao Letian would leave one or two companies of troops and enough explosives, and with the loud sound of explosions, the ice layer up to half a meter deep cracked and shattered inch by inch, and the ice floe rose and fell in the river, and the beasts in the deep mountains were also alarmed and scattered in all directions.
