"Governor, if we don't say so much to our comrades now, how will everyone know that we are suppressing the Japanese revolution?" Wei Changrong asked. Wei Ze was worried that the suppression of the Japanese revolution would cause other voices to emerge within the Liberation Party, but Wei Changrong felt that Wei Ze was too worried and simply did not talk about the problems that were difficult to talk about.

Wei Ze shook his head, "We are going to send troops to suppress the Japanese revolution......"

Wei Changrong was stunned, he didn't expect that there was the possibility of sending troops. And sending troops is only the first half, Wei Ze's second half of the words made Wei Changrong's face change, "In addition to the navy, the scale of sending troops requires at least one army with reinforced artillery, or even two corps. ”

"Hey! Do you really need two armies? Two armies can defeat Henan! Wei Changrong asked Wei Ze puzzled.

Shen Xin's face also changed, the Guangfu Army did adhere to the principle of concentrating superior forces to fight, but it was only a basic principle of battle and battle. In terms of combat effectiveness, the domestic enemy faced by the Liberation Army itself can be easily defeated with fewer troops.

Zuo Zongtang now also knows the equipment and combat effectiveness of the Liberation Army, and it is indeed a very terrifying thing to go to Japan to suppress the revolution and use the strength of two armies.

Wei Ze said quite unhappily: "The strength of the two armies is not a problem, and it is not a problem to dispatch 20 armies to fight for China." Not to mention fighting at home, I am not at all worried about fighting the southern islands of the Netherlands against Luzon in Spain or going abroad to fight in the future. Because everyone knows who to fight for and why. What justification do we use to suppress the Japanese revolution? Serving the Japanese feudal lords? This reason is really unreasonable. ”

"It is inevitable that there will be things of subordination, and His Majesty thinks that this needs to be done, so we will do it." Zuo Zongtang came up with a very traditional view. If it was before, he would definitely feel that Wei Ze was so gentle that he was "not like a human king", but now that the starting point is different, he thinks that Wei Ze's more serious Cheng Dù is sympathetic.

Almost at the same time as Weeser and his comrades were discussing the relationship between revolution and reality, opposite the British Library in London, Uncle Ma and Uncle En were chatting in the large flat-story house that Uncle Ma had purchased. After getting Wei Ze's funding, Uncle Ma's life is better. A thousand taels of gold is nothing to the Liberation Party, but it is very helpful to Uncle Ma. With Uncle Ma's generous personality, he provided a large amount of assistance to the revolutionaries in Europe. Hong Renji found out about this problem, and after consulting Wei Ze, in addition to buying Uncle Ma a house that is convenient for writing, he gave him 40 pounds a month. Later, it was changed to 20 pounds for half a month, and then changed to 10 pounds for a week, and the money saved was used up as soon as he got it. There are still legal procedures for the deed, and if Hong Renji does not sign it, the house cannot be mortgaged or sold. After adjustment, Uncle Ma's life went on decently.

The first time Uncle Ma received Wei Ze's gift was when his life was at its most embarrassing, and that money allowed him to pay off all his debts. As a scholar, Uncle Ma felt that the gift he could provide in return was his manuscript. From the Communist Manifesto to Das Kapital, Uncle Ma, who had received financial security, sent a copy of all his manuscripts to Wei Ze without reservation.

Even if it was just with Wei Ze's funding, Uncle Ma also had a great interest in Eastern China. It has been ten years since the Liberation Army fought with the British in Guangdong. The surge in trade between China and Europe has led to more news of China's civil war in Europe. Not to mention the fact that the new Chinese government has established embassies in European countries, which in itself can fully influence the European perception of China.

At this time, they were discussing the manuscript sent by Weeser, "The Fall of the French Revolution." This article made Uncle Ma find it very interesting, and Uncle En was also very interested. Weeser's central thesis is that "the events that marked the fall of the French Revolution were not the massacres of the Jacobins or the Girondins, but the manifestation of the different lines taken by revolutionary ideas in reality." The fall of the French Revolution was the Directory's declaration that all the bad things that had been done before had been done by others, that we were good people and that those bad things had nothing to do with us. The events that led to the interruption of the revolution marked the end of the French Revolution. ”

It is quite remarkable that an Oriental can look at the revolution in Europe in such a light. Even in Europe in 1866, the French Revolution was ambiguous. Whether they are those who think they have inherited the ideals of the French Revolution, or those who oppose it, in the words of Weeser's article, "see the images of the old times that have passed away, and then try to rope the images of the past and drag it to the present." As for what that image meant, they didn't care, and they didn't want to care at all. In this regard, it can only be said that every qiē history is modern history. ”

Enshu knew that Wei Ze invited him to China, and Uncle Enn was very busy at that time. After learning that Wei Ze was the emperor, Uncle En didn't want to go. In France, Na 1 and Na 3 both started with revolution and ended with the title of emperor. Regarding Wei Ze's sobriety and sanity, Uncle En commented, "Or China will also change from a constant revolution to a constant war." ”

Rulers, especially intelligent and rational rulers, tend to perceive revolution not to advance it, but to make their counter-revolutionary behavior more effective. European rulers have already expressed such qualities, such as Bismarck, who is now Chancellor of Germany. Seeing that the prime minister said in 1861 the words of iron and blood that Weeser had said in 1856, Uncle Enn really could not accept Weese's invitation to the monarch of the East. Even the fourth of this monarch's official titles is the emperor.

Even so, Uncle En didn't mean to laugh at Wei Ze. Because Weeser is a rare monarch who can see things from the standpoint of the proletariat. He acknowledged the basic view of productivity promoting social development advocated by Uncle Ma and Uncle En. And Weeser's idea of the division of social forms is also very interesting.

After proposing the development of primitive society, slave society, feudal society, capitalist society, and communist society, Weeser proposed the distinction between these different stages. With the addition of the idea of commodification, the slave society was divided into ideas represented by the Roman era. Whether the purpose of keeping slaves was to use their labour power as a commodity, or only to make the slaves themselves part of a group.

The feudal era of land feudalization, two different stages of power feudalization, is also the concept proposed by Weizer. Europe has always been a land feud, with land as the basis of power. Weeser even predicted that even if Europe and the United States entered the capitalist system, there would still be a long-term separation of power in the political system. This kind of talk based on the experience of "later generations" really made Uncle En admire it very much.

So Uncle En can also see that Wei Ze is indeed a person who can use militaristic means. The means are only means and tools, so Weeser is very afraid that the state he built will eventually become a militaristic state. If ideals were swallowed up by the tools of reality, I don't think the young monarch of the East would be willing to see such a result.

Uncle Ma once thought that a bourgeois revolution was possible in China, but now he firmly believes that the bourgeois revolution in China has broken out, but is advancing at a sensational pace. In the concept of industrial society proposed by Weeser, capital operation is classified as a means of operation. It is clear that China's Liberation Party itself has become a bourgeoisie, and under the leadership of their leader Wei Ze, the whole of China has taken the initiative to enter the industrial age with ideas and concepts.

Seeing that "Capital" turned out to be a sharp weapon in the hands of Wei Ze, the monarch of the East, Uncle Ma didn't know whether he should be happy or sad. It must be noted that when Uncle Ma first wrote this huge work, he only wanted to summarize the laws of capitalism itself, and he did not expect that the laws pointed out in Capital could be practiced so systematically.

Weeser summed up the Communist Manifesto as industrialization, urbanization, globalization, and anti-feudalism. The theory of separating capital operations and putting forward the theory that state-owned enterprises are the mainstay, private enterprises can be saved, basic social goods are for the purpose of security, and social consumer goods are forcibly eliminated by competition and the state, so that Uncle Ma can see the image of a ruthless and confident centralized monarch.

What kind of country will be born from such practice? And the country's leaders don't seem to have any intention of rejecting communism at all. Is there a more, a more ridiculous, and more comical combination of an emperor who believes in communism, a ......leader of state capitalism, and a monarch who cares nothing about militarism?

The pragmatism of the Chinese made Uncle Ma very unhappy, whether it was the monarch or his subordinates. For example, no matter how many letters he wrote to the Chinese ambassador in London, Hong Renji, he hoped that Hong would support the revolution in Europe. But these letters were like a stone in the sea, and there was no response. The staff member who delivered the money always listened to Uncle Ma's request with a smile, and he just listened.

"Weeser is aware of a lot of problems, but will he turn into an unprecedented counter-revolutionary?" Uncle Ma raised this question that he had been very concerned about. There are many kinds of counter-revolutions, and the most terrible of them is the kind of counter-revolution that has faith, discipline, ability, and the ability to absorb the advanced parts of all cultures, and truly understands the revolution.

Uncle En didn't answer immediately, he thought for a while, and then put forward his opinion, "For now, is he still in the revolution?" I am interested in how long the revolution promoted by Weeser lasted, even if Weeser saw the possibility that the revolutionary means would eventually eat up the revolution itself? When the social contradictions reach what point will Wei Ze reveal his true colors? ”

Ten years ago, when Uncle Ma and Uncle En, when they saw Wesser's description of the reasons why the European revolution of 1848 could not succeed, they felt that Weser had overemphasized the role of the gold rush in the continuation of the capitalist system. But the facts are more in line with Weeser's judgment. With the massive gold mining, with the rise of trade between China and Europe in the East, the capitalist system held up. While the destructiveness of the economic crisis is powerful, the vitality of the capitalist system is even stronger.

So, seeing these fierce contradictions and solutions, what is it possible for Weeser to avert an economic crisis? Uncle Ma and Uncle En didn't believe it. When the inevitable economic crisis hits China, does Weeser have a solution? How would this approach differ from the current response in Europe? Both were eager to see it. R1058
