Chapter 37: The Sun and the Moon

"The Duke of Wei proposed that whether it was the Han Chinese, the Jurchens, or the Mongols, Koreans, or the Japanese people... As long as they can unite under the banner of the sun and moon, they are Chinese. We should not be treated differently, but should be regarded as a unified people, where everyone speaks the same words, writes the same words, wears the same clothes, eats the same meals, and celebrates the same festivals...

In this way, they will not hate each other and fight against each other. In the same way, a handful of separatists with ulterior motives will also lose the soil for their survival, and will be strangled and eliminated in the tide of the times. In this way, our country can be united, not lose its vitality due to internal friction, and can compete with the foreign devils in the West for whether the world is surnamed Zhong or foreign. ——Excerpt from the third volume of "Wei Gongdang Hu Jinghai Lu" (official version of the Hanlin Academy's Xiuwen)

………

After simply estimating that the killing efficiency might be very low, and that it would be stubbornly resisted by the soldiers and civilians of Jueluo City, who were still trapped in the beasts, Gonggong Wei decisively showed a friendly face.

After all, that's three or four thousand, not three or four hundred.

There is no suspicion in employing people, and there is no need for suspicious people.

What is Haojie?

It is the person who can make up his mind when it is critical.

Gonggong Wei is undoubtedly this hero, just as he dared to press the princess under him and climb the wall of the concubine's courtyard at night.

After receiving the Ming army's consent, the Jurchens showed a happy expression, and then quickly pushed out fifty young people. After picking up arms again, these Jurchen young men and women, under the leadership of two soldiers of the Ming Emperor's own army, drove to the West Gate and formed a temporary crusade team at the West Gate.

They will assist the Ming Imperial Army to complete the blow to the Jurchen reactionary aristocratic groups and separatist forces in Jueluo City, and ensure that the sun and moon will always hang over the white mountains and black waters.

This is also a practice of the theory of "class struggle" put forward by Gonggong Wei when he met with Gonggong Chen Fu in Nandu.

No matter which ruling class, there is always a distinction between high and low.

It was the Manchu Eight Banners in its heyday, and there was no distinction between the three flags and the five flags.

Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and now Jueluo Nuerha has not been able to complete the founding of the country, and there is no reason to classify all the Jurchens as hostile forces and beat them to death with a stick.

Wei Gonggong deeply reflected on the thinking of the struggle against the enemy during this period, and finally formed a new understanding, that is, the work must be completed in stages.

You can't expect to become fat in one bite, nor can you achieve it overnight, but you must make effective responses according to the direction of events. Rather than holding a concept and executing rigidly.

This is a violation of dogmatism.

History has proven that dogmatism is bound to fail.

Therefore, under a broad guiding ideological framework, it is necessary to allow the implementers to flexibly control the policy.

For example, the crusade and relocation of the six forts of Kuandian and the massacre of Yongdian are necessary, of practical significance, conducive to unity, conducive to the morale of the army, and conducive to reducing casualties among the people of all nationalities.

In the "border wall offensive" that penetrates deep into the hinterland of Jianzhou, the guiding ideology of "two excesses" is also very necessary. This ideological guidance can greatly destroy the forces of the reactionary separatist ruling clique in Jianzhou and damage their vitality.

Therefore, it is also necessary to look at it positively.

But now, we are about to reach the Yalu River, and there are no pursuers behind us, so it seems that we can use more moderate means on the premise of not violating the general guiding ideology.

After all, he always emphasized that people are the primary productive forces.

Not to mention that they were all arrested, they were just to bring a thousand people and sell them to... They are all pioneers when they are brought to the East.

Although Shen has not been in contact with his father-in-law for several months, the military and political forces in Zhejiang and Fujian have already begun to build up armaments under the guidance of the "Zhejiang Party."

The emperor's side also approved the idea of making a fortune by crossing the sea and charging for foreign money, which doomed the sea-crossing operation to be impossible to stop.

It's as if a fully loaded truck has gone downhill, don't think about stopping.

Perhaps, the Zhejiang Party is thinking more about how to do the "toll collector" proposed by Wei Gonggong, so as to make more profits.

But Grandpa Wei knew that what he wanted to do was not the chairman of the Pacific Waterway Management Company, but what he wanted to do was to be the helmsman, a leader who could guide China's giant ship to a distant place.

Then, his old man who has no money obviously doesn't value it so much, and the Zhejiang Party can take more money, but the land must be the father-in-law's.

There is no one on the land.

Historically, the large-scale development of Taiwan originated in the Ming and Zheng periods, and my father-in-law wanted to advance this development now, and he needed hundreds of thousands, or even millions, of manpower.

This is an ambitious project, and it cannot be completed overnight.

My father-in-law is honest and loyal, not ambitious, not ugly and dirty, and down-to-earth.

First go to Taiwan, draw a circle, move tens of thousands of people, and build a bridgehead. Then use this bridgehead to extend deep into the island, so as to completely incorporate Taiwan into China's territory, and then, either north to Japan, or south to the South Seas, all under the planning of the government.

The soldiers and civilians of Jueluo City, who were struggling in the fire, did not expect that most of them had been put on an island thousands of miles away by a Ming Dynasty eunuch.

Under the scorching flames and the smoke of thick smoke, countless Jurchens fled outside the city gates.

The Ming Imperial Army, which guarded the two gates, obviously would not let them come out so easily, and after the two-wheeled horse slashing, the Jurchen members of the temporary crusade team were ordered to shout, so that the compatriots who crowded at the city gate and did not dare to come out would kill the city lord Jueluo Baoshi and his children and grandchildren, and then line up to surrender, so that they could definitely live.

Father-in-law Wei leisurely looked at the Jurchens in the city, regardless of soldiers and people, old and weak, men and women. Under this kind of chaos, even if there were still a few hundred Jurchen armored people in the city, it would be impossible for them to organize an effective offensive. Besides, under the shouts of the heart, those ordinary armored people will definitely be shaken.

Seeing that there were obviously Han people crowded there at the city gate, Gonggong Wei couldn't help patting his head and hurriedly ordered to go down.

"Han people can come out! Han people can come out! ”

Hearing the shouts of the Ming army outside, the Han people in the city, Ahara, were amnestied, and under the gaze of Allah, they squeezed out of the crowd one after another, and walked out of the smoky hell with trepidation.

They were not afraid of the Ming army, but they were really afraid that their master would kill them. However, no one dared to move the sons of Allah, and no one dared to come forward to kill these Han people who went out, even if they still held knives in their hands.

One after another, Han Chinese walked out of the city, giving the Jurchens room to move, but the fire in the city was even bigger and spread towards the city gates.

Finally, a Jurchen armored man who couldn't stand it gritted his teeth and turned around, and chopped down a city lord's nephew next to him to the ground with a knife.

This is like opening the devil's bottle, and a fight was quickly staged between the east gate and the west gate.

The seventy-one-year-old lord of the city, Jueluo Baoshi, had his neck wiped off by his own Goshha, and then the Goshha walked out of the city carrying his master's head.

After the battle, the Jurchens threw down their weapons and walked out in line according to the shouts of the Ming army.

Men are at the front, women and children are at the back, and the elderly are at the end.

About 1,600 Jurchens and more than 900 Han Aha, received the goodwill of Gonggong Wei, and they were rescued.

The captives were gathered at the docks, and Gonggong Wei rode past them, and the crowd fell to their knees one by one. Whether it is the Jurchen or the Han Aha, their faces are full of gratitude and love for Grandpa Wei.

My father-in-law was very satisfied.

Between the good and the bad, between the loyal and the cunning, between the long and the short, between the black and the white, between the fine and the stupid, the two generations of the public fire will always be so good.

"Is there any more Jueluo?" Father-in-law asked.

The answer may be.

The father-in-law waved his hand: "Let them report each other, but if there is, tell them to catch and kill." "When you finish speaking, you are satisfied, and you will get rid of the evil.
