At this time, Dai De took his brother's words, and turned from pride to resentment and said: "Yes, at that time, with these two firearms, the ancestor was very favored by Emperor Kangxi, and he could walk in the imperial study and see the sky directly. ”

However, later, due to the talent of the ancestors, his attainments in firearms were incomparable. Therefore, he was jealous of Nan Huairen, who had ill intentions and conspired with others to frame his ancestors. In the end, my Dai family was charged with rebellion and exiled to Shengjing (Shenyang), the bitter cold place outside the Guan, where they lived in hardship and poverty, and their ancestors even made a living by selling calligraphy and paintings. ”

"Later, the ancestors were able to bathe in the grace of the saints, coinciding with the amnesty of the world, the new emperor succeeded to the throne, and the crime of rebellion was ****, and the ancestors were able to return to their hometown with their families and return to Hangzhou."

After saying this, the five people surnamed Dai were silent, sighing again and again, full of helplessness, crying out for their ancestors, they should not have such an opportunity and be treated like this. is really jealous of the talent, and was framed by the villain.

Yang Lin also pondered, thinking about something, and did not say a few words of sympathy or relief, but felt that there was some kind of cause and effect, which was not as simple as it seemed.

After a while, Yang Lin seemed to figure out the key crux of it, and said meaningfully: "Actually, the reason why your ancestors were treated like this is only a matter of time and time, and it will inevitably happen, and the slander and framing of Nan Huairen and others are just an introduction to make things go ahead." ”

Hearing Yang Lin's remarks, the slightly older Dai Lidade calmed down, but his brows furrowed, revealing a somewhat unhappy look.

The other three young people didn't do it, they were full of enthusiasm, and they couldn't stand the young man in front of them, who was younger than themselves, talking about their ancestors like this, and at the same time said in unison with resentment: "Why do you say this about our ancestors!" What do you mean? Could it be that Nan Huairen's framing is still justified? ”

Yang Lin smiled slightly, not angry at the attitude of the three of them, and said frankly and disapprerovingly: "The reason why I said it is that there must be my basis and judgment, and I am not justifying anything for Nan Huairen, but I just said my personal views and opinions, and I didn't say what your ancestors meant, it was purely an outsider's opinion, don't you want to hear my point of view?" Don't want to know why I say that? ”

Dai Li stopped the three people who were still talking, and seeing that Yang Lin's tone was flat, he was not aiming at himself and the others, so he asked inquisitively: "Dare to ask this young master, I don't know why you said that?" What is your basis? ”

Yang Lin ignored the three younger generations surnamed Dai who were still staring at him, and said as if talking to himself, and as if explaining: "The basis is very simple, because the things invented by your ancestors threaten the rule of the Manchus and will destroy the foundation of the Eight Banners. For the Manchu Emperor Kangxi, such a talent of your ancestors is already a crime. ”

Seeing the other party's look of disbelief and shock, Yang Lin did not continue to explain, but asked, "Excuse me, what kind of emperor was Emperor Kangxi at that time?" Would he believe Nan Huairen's slander so easily and believe that your ancestors had conspired against the enemy? Isn't it too unreasonable to exile someone with such merit without evidence, just based on the words of a few people? ”

Dai Li subconsciously replied: "Emperor Kangxi is a good emperor, he has been leveling three times, killing Aobai, Dinggerdan rebellion, resting with the people, and alleviating the contradictions between the Manchus and our Han people, not bad." But what does this have to do with the exile of our ancestors? ”

Yang Lin smiled coldly, ignored Dai Li's answer, continued his words, and took over the topic above.

"Yes, what you said is indeed Kangxi's merits. However, don't forget, he is a Manchurian, he is the emperor of the Qing court. In everything, his priority was to maintain the rule of the Qing court, the status of the children of the Eight Banners, and the foundation of the Qing court. ”

"Let me ask you again, the firearms made by your ancestors are so powerful that they are rare. If it is equipped in the army, the overall strength of the army will be greatly enhanced. However, the wise Kangxi Emperor just continued to use the sub-mother cannon in the army, and Lianzhu abandoned the deep palace without using it. Otherwise, do you still need to develop it here? ”

Yang Lin's question made them speechless and unable to refute, and the three young people were no longer hostile to Yang Lin, thoughtfully, and began to recall what Yang Lin said and the meaning contained in it.

At this moment, Dai Lidade no longer frowned, and his forehead was tightly locked. The other three were also honest, thinking about Yang Lin's words and sentences, thinking about what Yang Lin wanted to express.

Seeing that they were still puzzled and didn't think through the key links, Yang Lin said step by step: "Let me ask you, if your ancestors' Lianzhu guns are equipped in the army, then the two armies will face off against each other and fight in the future, and they will still use big swords and spears, arrows and bows?" Does the cavalry still have an advantage? ”

The five of them seemed to understand something, but they still didn't believe it, and wanted to defend themselves, but Dai De asked with some struggle: "However, what does this have to do with the rule of the imperial court and the foundation of the Eight Banners?" Isn't the army stronger with Lianzhu? ”

Yang Lin only paused slightly, and said emphatically under the gaze of the five people: "There is a connection, or a big connection!" ”

"I ask you again, do you know that when the Manchus enter the customs, they rely on nothing more than the children of the Eight Banners, and they rely on nothing more than their Jin Ge Iron Horse, excellent equestrian archery skills, far better than the Han people, a race with a huge base. If the army uses the Lianzhu Gun, even the most ordinary Han people can operate it, with the power of the Lianzhu Gun, then the Jinge Iron Horse is just a decoration, a moving target, and the advantage of the Manchurian is no longer there! ”

"What's more, whether it is your ancestors or me, they are all complete Han people, and the overall number of Han people is more than several times that of Manchurians. Even if only a small half of the Han people came out to resist and picked up the Lianzhu gun to oppose the Qing court, then their Manchurian country would not be guaranteed, and they would have to roll back to Guanwai, that bitter cold and barren land, outside Guanwai. ”

"If you were the emperor at the time, would you still sleep and eat soundly? Will you still use your ancestors, the Han people, with peace of mind?

The five of them suddenly realized, as if they had been empowered. Dai Lidade's perception is deeper and his understanding is more thorough. Because they have experienced more, they know more about politics, they know people's hearts, and they understand what it means to be innocent and guilty.

Finally, Yang Lin said concludingly: "You can think about it, whether it is the Yuan Dynasty, which is inextricably linked with the Qing Dynasty, or today. Both dynasties were hostile to the Han and took pride in conquering the Han Chinese, and the slaughter of cities was a regular occurrence. In the midst of the rule, the status of the Han people is at the end of the branch. ”

"The reason why this is the case is not because of how strong the resistance of the Han people is, and how much they have lost. Rather, it is because the Han people have great potential, and as long as they wake up, no other people can rule. Therefore, the ruler of almost every ethnic minority is the first to slaughter Han Chinese to reduce this threat. ”

After Yang Lin finished speaking, while the five of them sighed about what happened to their ancestors, they were even more shocked and impressed by Yang Lin's analytical ability. I didn't expect such a young person to have such a talent for observation and reason, and to see the problem straight to the point. With such a broad mind, looking at the past and the present, and seeing it so thoroughly.
