Chapter 525: The Servility of the Chinese
The servility of the Chinese Zhang Baotong 4
Two days ago, when I was chatting with some friends, I somehow talked about the servility of the Chinese. For example, my friend angrily said that in a county town where only 100 Japanese devils were stationed, there were hundreds of thousands of Chinese, but no one rose up to resist the Chinese who were enslaved, oppressed, or even arbitrarily slaughtered. Another Kuomintang general also said that in the course of the Nanjing Massacre, there were 20 Japanese devils holding more than 2,000 Chinese soldiers prisoners, and if they had been able to resist at that time, perhaps the number of dead would not have been 2,000, but at most only a few dozen or a few hundred. However, the 2,000 Chinese were just like that, and were all shot by 20 Japanese soldiers with machine guns. Speaking of such incidents, there is no one who is not angry or sad, and no one does not blame us Chinese for being servile and lacking in blood and backbone.
Regarding the servility of the Chinese, it can be said that it is a characteristic and characteristic of our nation. This characteristic and characteristic has been inherited through genes in our Chinese for thousands of years, and it is indeed deep-rooted and accustomed to it. This is one of the great sorrows of the Chinese nation, and it bears the suffering and tragedy of the Chinese nation.
Chinese people have the quality of hard work, courage and hard work, and they are relatively patient, as long as there is food at home, they will not go out to make trouble. Even if something happens, it always calms things down, and big things turn into small things, and small things become small. Moreover, Chinese culture also mostly follows the Confucian culture. For thousands of years, in order to fool the people and Hue the people, the feudal rulers established such as the "Three Platforms and Five Constants" (the three outlines are the monarch is the minister, the father is the son, and the husband is the wife. The five constants are benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom, and faith). Its core is subordination to righteousness or unconditional subordination to the relationship between upper and lower. Promote the monarch and minister, father and son, and husband and wife in the human relationship as a predetermined and eternal master-slave relationship. The five permanent ways of benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom, and faith are the basic rules for dealing with the relationship between monarchs and ministers, fathers and sons, husbands and wives, and superiors and subordinates. Women must also abide by the "three obedience and four virtues" (that is, the young obey the father, marry the husband, the husband dies from the son, and the woman's morality, women's words, women's appearance, and women's work), otherwise it is a great rebellion.
When the Manchu tribes ruled, Kangxi proclaimed himself a saint in the world: "I was born a sage, and I was a king and a teacher." The inheritance of the Taoist system of all ages, that is, the system of the rule of all generations. In order to please their masters, the slaves vigorously preached that "the king wants his ministers to die, and the ministers have to die" and "the father wants the son to die, and the son has to die", and has made it a kind of respect that is well-known and known to everyone.
In fact, Confucianism was established by Confucius and Mencius, who once said that parents have the obligation to obey the "great righteousness of the world" and have the responsibility to correct their parents' mistakes. What's more, the children of parents are still the people of the Son of Heaven, not the private property of the parents, and the father has no right to demand the death of the son. Confucius also said: The small air stays, and the big rod escapes. He said that if your father beats you, if it is a small beating, you will suffer, and when you are extremely angry, the big stick will beat you to death, and you will run away, and if you are killed, you will give your father a reputation as a murderer. The same is true for monarchs and ministers, if the monarch and ministers have to die, if you are a monarch and minister, don't you give the emperor a reputation for killing loyalty? So you can't die.
In this regard, there was such a story in the Qing Dynasty. Once, Emperor Qianlong wanted to make a joke and stump the witty scholar Ji Xiaolan, so he asked him, "Ji Qing, how do you explain loyalty and filial piety?" Ji Xiaolan replied, "The king wants his ministers to die, and the ministers have to die, for loyalty." Qianlong immediately said, "I now order you to die as a king?" Ji Xiaolan was stunned and said, "Really?" Qianlong said, "How are you going to die?" Ji said, "Jump into the river." Qianlong said, "Okay, let's go!" After Ji Xiaolan left, Qianlong paced the hall with a smile. Not long after, I saw Ji Xiaolan running back from outside, Qianlong asked, "Ji Qing, why aren't you dead?" Ji Xiaolan replied, "I ran into Qu Yuan, and he won't let me die." Qianlong asked, "How do you say this?" Ji said, "I went to the river, and was about to jump down, when Dr. Qu came to me from the water, and he patted me on the shoulder and said, 'Xiaolan, this is not right, I think that the king of Chu was a faint monarch back then, and I had to die.'" But now that the emperor is so holy, you should go back first and ask the emperor if he is a faint monarch, if the emperor says yes, it will not be too late for you to die!"
The rulers not only want the people to strictly abide by the "three outlines and five constants" and the "three obedience and four virtues" so that people dare not disobey and disobey, but also punish those who disobey very cruelly. Not only do they have to punish the offenders, but they often involve nine clans, that is, the fourth father's clan, the third mother's clan, and the second generation of the wife's clan (i.e., the son-in-law, the sister's son, the daughter's son, and one's own clan; the maternal grandfather's family, the maternal grandmother's family, the aunt's family; the father-in-law's family, and the mother-in-law's family) will be punished. Even if you are a criminal and escape, these relatives of your family will not be able to escape responsibility. Therefore, people would rather be wise and protect themselves than cause trouble.
The ancient Chinese were very righteous and arrogant, with "the wind is sluggish and the water is easy to cold, and the strong man will never return", there is "the gentleman does not eat the food that comes from the mouth", there are the big husbands "the rich and the noble cannot be lewd, the poor and the lowly cannot be moved, and the mighty cannot be bent", and there is the righteousness and arrogance of "the civil minister does not love money, the military minister does not hesitate to die, and the world is peaceful". However, in the Song Dynasty, especially in the Qing Dynasty, feudal rulers, especially foreign and foreign rulers, in order to cultivate slaves and traitors, lured and forced people to abandon national righteousness and pursue personal pleasure and preserve their lives by means of ruthless killing, so that the traitor culture gained power. So there was Zhang Hongfan to destroy Song Yuyashan, Wu Sangui led the Qing army into Shanhaiguan, Hong Chengqian led the Qing army to pacify the Central Plains, and in the face of the national disaster of the War of Resistance, Wang Jingwei established a puppet national government in Nanjing to help the Japanese invaders massacre the Chinese. Especially during the Anti-Japanese War, when the Japanese army invaded China was less than 2 million, and the puppet army that assisted the Japanese army in the war was as high as 2.1 million, exceeding the number of the Japanese army that invaded China. Take the list we cited earlier, if it weren't for the cooperation of so many imperial troops and traitors, how could 100 Japanese devils manage a county town with hundreds of thousands of people. And so many imperial troops and traitors have indeed caused serious harm to the unity of the whole nation in the war of resistance. Therefore, China is the only country that in World War II the number of puppet armies exceeded the number of invading armies.
Servility is not only present in Chinese, but also in foreigners. However, there are some countries in the world that have been occupied by foreigners for a long time, but none of them has so many traitors, traitors and puppet soldiers. And it is the spiritual sinking of the group, not one or two, but a large number of large areas. During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression alone, there were generals Gu Zhutong, Zhu Shaoliang, Xiong Shihui, and Li Mingyang, Chen Gongbo, Zhou Fohai, Chen Lifu, Chen Bui, and Gao Zongwu among politicians, and Hu Shi, Tao Xisheng, Mei Siping, Zhang Junmao, and Luo Junqiang among literati. This may make many Chinese people feel ashamed and puzzled.
In addition to the weak sense of the country, pessimism and disappointment in the victory of the war of resistance, the long-term disunity of the country, the existence of many political forces and factions, the differences in political views within the Nationalist Government, and the struggle for power and profit (for example, Wang Jingwei and Chiang Kai-shek have long competed for the position of supreme leader but were unable to do so), there are also many personal factors, such as greed for life and fear of death, greed for wealth and nobility, and lack of national integrity. Another important reason for this is that after the fall of the Song Dynasty, the Chinese elite culture was wiped out, and the rule of the Yuan and Qing dynasties led to the popularity of traitor culture. The most typical is Hong Chengchou who helped the Manchu Qing Dynasty to control the Han with Han, Pu Yi helped the Japanese establish Manchukuo in Northeast China, and Wang Jingwei helped the Japanese establish the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere. Even now, some people want to betray the motherland and become renegades and traitors for the sake of a little personal gain and loss. For example, Wu Wei, a teacher of Chinese descent in Australia, publicly insulted China and burned Chinese passports to call it a shame to be Chinese. There is also the Canadian journalist Pinkov, who specializes in slandering China and selling Chinese intelligence. The fact that China can produce so many traitors and traitors shows the seriousness and pathosity of the servile thinking of the Chinese. This is actually a very unconfident manifestation and reflection of Chinese culture and Chinese society.
The National Institute of Mental Health recently conducted an experiment on rhesus macaques, injecting a gene called "D2" into the monkeys, so that the aggressive monkeys became obedient slaves, working tirelessly for long hours to carry out the tasks assigned to them by scientists. The scientists involved in the experiment also pointed out that humans also have the same genes!
In fact, servility exists for everyone, and it is not just a derogatory term. For example, we all want others to obey us, and we don't like others to go against us. And our society and culture are also encouraging servility and curbing blood. Teachers and parents teach children to be obedient and beat and reprimand disobedient children. In the unit, the leader also likes to obey orders and meet the will, so that the phenomenon of "wanting slaves, not talents" is a common reality in many units. Especially in the military, it is even more of a commander's consciousness that orders must be carried out and orders are forbidden.
When we talk about servility, we all scoff at it and despise it with great contempt, but do we ourselves do the same, nodding our heads when we see our leaders, and being annoyed when we hear different opinions? Or abandoning justice and conscience for the sake of some immediate interests? If we were in the ranks of the 2,000-strong Nationalist army that had been captured, and faced with more than 20 Japanese soldiers escorting us to the execution ground, would we raise our arms and call on everyone to fight to the death against the Japanese soldiers?
In fact, it is not uncommon for the king of the Inca Empire to be killed by 160 soldiers led by Pizarro, the commander of the Spanish expeditionary force who was a swineherd, with an army of 70,000 men, and he himself was captured by the Spaniards. After that, there were more than 100,000 Inca troops who did not dare to attack the Spaniards because they did not have the order of the captured king, and were finally wiped out by the Spaniards little by little. Because they were accustomed to the commands of the king of the Incas, without them, they were at a loss.
Servility is a subconscious unconscious behavior that is not only present in humans, but also in other animals such as wolves and monkeys. For it is the conduct and habit necessary to maintain the dignity and order of a community. However, we usually call positive and rational servility rationality, and we should spurn and abhor those who disregard personal dignity and despicable obedience, and those who blindly obey and subservimate, especially those who lose their integrity and righteousness for the sake of pleasure and self-preservation; those traitors and traitors who defect to the enemy and cause serious harm to the country should be killed as Israeli agents did with the remnants of Nazi war criminals, no matter how far they go.
We should transform the servility that is conducive to society and civilization into a kind of reason, and consciously eliminate the servility that we scorn and undignified. Eradicating servility requires the building of institutions, the incentive mechanism, the promotion of blood and integrity, and the need for us to have sufficient confidence in the culture of the motherland and the society today. With the rise of the Chinese nation, the strength of the country and the development of society, the servility of the Chinese will gradually change to rationality. Only then will the Chinese nation have more hope.
