Chapter 348, Indoctrination (2)
The seventeenth century for colonization. It was a good time for the movement, because the moral lower limit of this era was very low, almost to the point that there was no lower limit. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info don't say anything like racial discrimination, it's genocide, and it's also a common method. Compared with the European colonizers of that era, especially compared with some Spaniards, the later generations of Hitler can only be regarded as a soft-hearted cutie. If it weren't for the limitations of technological ability, if the Spaniards of that era had the technical level and population of the Hitler era, it is estimated that there would be no indigenous people in South America. Well, it should even be said that there are no Homo sapiens animals in the world other than Spaniards. In fact, China's need for colonies is more urgent than that of Europe, because the population of Europe is not so large that it cannot be fed by the mainland, but in China in this era, the problem is very serious. A surplus population can provide a large number of immigrants, and because there are enough immigrants, theoretically speaking, if China embarks on the evil path of colonialism, it should be more qualified to engage in genocide or something.
But Zheng Sen did not intend to do this in the area under his control, not all because of the moral influence from later generations, although this influence must be there, and another important factor is the cost. If you work hard, no matter how many natives there are, they are not the opponents of the model army, and they really come and die as many as they want. However, although the indigenous people have a local character, it does not mean that the IQ of people must be very low. It's like the dirt eight roads back then, the earth is back to the earth, but it's very cunning. Whether it is the indigenous people of the Philippines or Taiwan, there is actually no shortage of smart people, and they soon discovered that the immigrants of the Zheng family are like eggs hitting stones. Judging from the experience gained by Zheng Sen in Taiwan, as long as they were given a period of time, they would soon be able to learn guerrilla warfare without a teacher, and learned such tricks as "the enemy advances and we retreat, the enemy is stationed and we disturb, the enemy is tired and I fight, and the enemy retreats and we pursue." Of course, the level of guerrilla warfare of these natives cannot be compared with that of later generations, but on the other hand, even if they are model soldiers, they cannot be compared with the Japanese devils in terms of military quality. Therefore, these primitive guerrilla warfare can still bring many obstacles to the Zheng family's immigration activities. In Taiwan, because of the limited number of natives and the limited territory of Taiwan, coupled with the fact that the Zheng family took advantage of the shortcomings of the low consciousness of the natives, they adopted divide and rule, instigated the natives to fight the natives, and even used some methods that were still legal in this era to poison the natives, so that the situation was slowly controlled.
In Luzon, the situation is even more troublesome. The natives of Luzon are much more civilized than Taiwan, and they are actually quite well organized, and they should not even be called natives, because they also established their own state, which is one of the signs of entering the age of civilization. It's just that their country was destroyed by the Spaniards, and from this point of view, these natives should also be regarded as objects that can be united and can be united in the future. However, when the Spaniards controlled Luzon, because the number of Spaniards was limited, they adopted a strategy of razing and destroying between the Chinese and the natives: today they pull the natives to bully the Chinese and share the benefits of the Chinese; Tomorrow, they will drag the Chinese to bully the natives and take advantage of the natives. In this way, the conflict between the natives and the Chinese deepened, and the two sides hated each other even more than they hated the Spaniards.
Now the Spaniards are surrounded in the city of Manila, and although the model army cannot enter it, they cannot get out either. The Chinese, who had the upper hand militarily, immediately launched another large-scale attack on the natives of Luzon. The private armies of those Chinese bosses robbed the natives everywhere, killed people and set fire to occupy the territory, and did something similar to the Japanese devils of later generations.
At first, these natives tried to confront them head-on, but soon, they found that even if they fought with the militia groups of the Chinese bosses, they were looking for death. Soon, all kinds of guerrilla warfare became active, and Luzon was full of forests, which was very suitable for guerrilla warfare, and the natives used poisoned arrows and other seemingly primitive weapons to constantly attack the lone Chinese, destroy the Chinese fields, and attack the farmers who farmed. And when the Chinese militia came to attack them, they quickly broke up and scattered into the jungle.
On one occasion, the militia pursued them into the jungle, only to be ambushed by the natives, and the dense jungle made it impossible to exert the range advantage of muskets and the army. The numerical superiority of the natives was maximized, and as a result, not a single one of the more than fifty escaped, while the natives cut off their heads and protested the next day not far from the Chinese fort.
Although, in general, the natives still suffered more casualties than the Chinese in such battles, such battles continued and were almost endless. Nowadays, in a slightly more remote place, where the garrison density is a little smaller, people dare to go out only in broad daylight with several people with weapons, and as for the fields, as long as they are a little closer to the jungle, they are all abandoned.
Of course, the natives are not having a good time. The indigenous people of Luzon were more civilized than the indigenous people of Taiwan, and they had progressed from the era of fishing and hunting to the age of farming. So they are now living in a settled life, as the saying goes, the monks can't run the temple, they can't run the natives, they can't run the fields they plant. If the militia can't catch the natives, they will destroy the crops in the fields of the natives, and this is also a very vicious but difficult trick for the natives. In particular, some of the more developed indigenous people have been hit harder because their areas are closer to the Chinese-controlled areas.
Zheng Sen knew that if he was willing to invest more strength and time in Luzon, learn from the Japanese devils, and adhere to the "three-light policy" of burning, killing, and robbing all the people, then the resistance of these natives would eventually be crushed, and the natives of Luzon Island would become rarer than the giant pandas in the future.
But to get such an effect, it takes a lot of troops, a lot of time, a lot of money. This will significantly slow down the development of the entire group. Therefore, what "three lights", what "Rulai backhand" and "genocide fist" and other ferocious things, Zheng Sen could only think about it in his head, and then vetoed them without hesitation.
So how can we effectively deal with the guerrilla warfare of the natives and quickly change the current situation? In the spirit of learning from history, Zheng Sen conscientiously recalled the lessons and lessons of dealing with guerrilla warfare in history.
"To unite all who can be united, unanimously against our enemies." Somehow, such a sentence suddenly popped up in Zheng Sen's mind.
"The united front," Zheng Sen punched lightly in the palm of his hand, "When the Red Rabbit Kingdom was first established, it was one of the important magic weapons for dealing with national issues!" ”
After the establishment of the Red Rabbit Kingdom in later generations, it marched to the southwest and northwest. I have also encountered contradictions with other ethnic groups. At that time, Taizu successfully divided their bottom and top with the Dafa of class struggle, and then relied on the bottom to fight the top, so as to ensure the stability and unity of the border areas throughout his life.
The natives of Luzon were civilized late. They are still strong remnants of the slave system, if there is no contradiction between their bottom and upper classes, then Zheng Sen definitely does not believe it. And as long as you are good at taking advantage of this contradiction, you can finally bring the people between the Chinese and the aborigines. Tribe. Spear. shield, transformed into a class contradiction within the indigenous people.
