Chapter 35 The Civilization of the Han and Tang Dynasties

Mo Li was indeed disappointed. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info he was disappointed for a reason.

"Throughout the ages, there is no constant strong dynasty, and the strength and weakness change, such as autumn and winter changes, are inevitable, and they cannot be broken. From now on, the Central Plains will be strong for a hundred years, but what will happen after hundreds of years, and what will happen after a thousand years? If this is the case, the people of the grassland still have the possibility of invading the Central Plains in the south. Mo Li's expression was solemn.

He continued: "It is important to ask me to be strong, but it is not a perfect way to steal. It is easy for mortals to be friends with wealth and prosperity, but it is difficult to share hardships, let alone between countries. If he is strong, I will follow, and if he is weak, I will deceive, is this not the truth and evil? He paused, his face softened, and he looked at Li Congjing and said, "Besides, as far as the current situation is concerned, His Highness still hasn't answered His Highness's own questions. ”

Li Congjing nodded and snorted, "It's true." After a while, he smiled and asked, "Is there a way for Brother Mo'er?" ”

Mo Li opened his mouth, and finally said helplessly: "There is no good way to leave." ”

Li Congjing turned around and asked Du Qianshu: "Is there a good plan for Qianshu?" ”

Du Qianshu shook his head in thought, but he added: "Since this dynasty, the Central Plains and the grassland have been flourishing, and if all the people are moved back to the Tang Dynasty, it seems that it is not feasible to stop the Central Plains and the grassland." However, if the empire does not have a great strategy to guide such exchanges, it will fail to do nothing, which is tantamount to sitting back and watching the troubles rise again in a hundred years. ”

"What Qianshu said makes sense." Li Congjing expressed his appreciation, and then looked at Tao Xiaoxiao again.

"Don't look at me, I don't know anything about politics." Momo's face was full of I'm an idiot but I'm proud of it, and it's a mess of righteousness.

But then she said: "But since the exchanges between the Central Plains and the grassland are unavoidable, why not take advantage of the trend?" You are all people who know history well, don't you know that thousands of years ago, our race was only a corner of the land? At that time, the ancestors were able to expand their territory, and in this dynasty, the empire can have thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, and the grassland is special, and it takes more effort to conquer this place, but isn't this exactly where you can use your force? ”

After Tao Yaoyao said this, he found that everyone was looking at him, and everyone's eyes were bright.

She was suddenly a little embarrassed, her eyes sank, and she glared back with great momentum, "What are you seeing?" ”

Everyone retracted their gaze, no one dared to talk hard with the Taoda master, after all, they couldn't beat others.

"It's really a golden and jade good word, and a word wakes up the person in the dream!" Mo Li thanked him, and then looked at Li Congjing, "The historical trend is irreversible, and the grassland has been influenced by our culture for thousands of years, why don't we push this process more thoroughly?" ”

He quickly cleared his mind clearly, and his speech became faster and more powerful, "The Tang civilization is the best in the world, and it is inevitable that the four Yi will compete to learn and emulate." In this case, why doesn't the empire vigorously promote this matter, so that the people who have been educated by our Tang culture are all Tang people, and the places that have been educated by our Tang culture are all Tang soil? He is a foreigner, although he is suspected of messing with my China, if he is my race, how can he destroy his ancestral hall! There will be troubled times, and it will also be civil strife, not external wars, and when the troubled times end, the world will still be unified! ”

Mo Li's eyes were clear, and his tone was sonorous, "Today's Khitan, although its power is small, but due to His Highness's conquest, it is no longer able to compete with the Tang Dynasty. In time, the sea will be unified, and the empire will regain the prosperity of Zhenguan, and the Khitan is just a small country, and it may not be impossible for the Tang Dynasty to turn it into an inner clan! ”

He concluded: "The Tang people don't have to move back, the hundreds of workers don't have to return to the south, the land that their generation does their best to water today will be all owned by my Tang Dynasty tomorrow, in this view, they are still serving the country!" ”

Du Qianshu also looked excited, and added: "In the past, China was able to assimilate the Wuhu, and today it can also assimilate the Khitan, what is the reason? It's all because of the excellence of my Datang civilization! Thousands of years later, the world does not know that there is a Khitan, but only the Tang people! ”

After a pause, Du Qianshu continued: "Not only do the Tang people not have to move back, and when the empire is strong, they can also make the people of the Central Plains go out of the customs and make them live in the grassland. In addition, it can also make the Khitan people move inward and make them live in the Central Plains. With such a two-pronged approach, with the excellence of our Tang civilization, after a hundred years, the Great Wall will no longer be a border pass, but just an imperial scene! ”

Mo Li agreed with Du Qianshu's words very much, and also said: "The reason for the southward invasion of the grassland is nothing more than both. First, the grassland is scarce, the people's livelihood is difficult, and the livelihood is difficult, and the customs are rich, so the people are willing to take the risk of war and knock on the pass to plunder, which is the people's feelings; Second, the chiefs of the steppe tribes have ambitions, so when there is civil strife in the Central Plains, they want to take advantage of the fire to rob, or to plunder wealth, or to achieve great causes. ”

"If the empire is greatly prosperous and the customs inside and outside the customs are exchanged, then the difficulties of the livelihood of the people in the grassland can be solved a little, and the Tang people move north, and use the various advanced points of our Tang civilization to build the grassland, make it a little richer, and then use the Tang civilization to transform their thinking, so that they are loyal to the monarch and patriotic, and live and work in peace and contentment, then the people of the grassland will no longer have the idea of invading the south." Mo Li paused slightly, "If the people can live and work in peace and contentment, without worrying about food and clothing, who is willing to fight for their lives and add blood to the knife edge to survive?" In this way, even if there are heroes in the grassland, it is difficult to provoke wars, if they want to make meritorious contributions, they can join the court and serve the country! ”

Everyone's thoughts were mobilized, and Du Qianshu finally said: "To make the people outside the transformation and become the people of the inside, there must be two places to rely on. First, the civilization is advanced; Second, the strength of the empire. If you have the strength of an empire, you will be able to conquer the people outside the country, and if you have the advanced civilization, you will be able to assimilate the people from the outside. Such a combination of civil and military, rigid and soft, no matter how big the grassland is, it is also Tang soil, although the four Yi are numerous, all of them are Tang Chen! ”

Li Congjing looked at the excited appearance of everyone and could understand their mood very well.

Du Qianshu's last words are right, Chinese history has indeed achieved the effect he said later. Liaodong, Mobei and Desert South, Western Regions, and Tubo have all become the jurisdictions of Han culture, and the people there, although they have different ethnic groups, are all almost sinicized, no different from the Central Plains.

Because of this, after the Qing Dynasty, although China went through the melee of the princes, and finally the country was able to be unified, and there was no longer the difference between inside and outside.

At that time, the Great Wall really became a scene of the empire.

- In fact, the "Great Wall" is not only in the north, but also in the Central Plains, but the scale is not so large, and the preservation is not so good, it also has another name, called "Fangcheng". Most of these "Great Walls" were built in the pre-Qin era, and at that time, for a vassal state, outside the "Great Wall", weren't they all aliens?

Yesterday you were of a different race, today you are of the same race.

The so-called national exchange and integration is nothing more than that.

It's just that it took a thousand years.

The reason why it has been used for thousands of years is because the two forces are not enough.

First, the empire is not strong enough; Second,Conscious sinicization is not enough。

On the whole, it is that the two work together is not strong enough.

Li Congjing secretly thought: "It is the responsibility of my generation to make the empire strong, and then use the imperial force to conquer foreign countries, and then use the Han civilization to transform them into Han people, isn't this my ambition in this life?" The ancients didn't know that they consciously sinicized other races, and I know that the ancients' national consciousness was a little worse, and I was not bad, if I exhausted my life's strength, is it really possible to make an immortal contribution to the Han people? ”

He thought about it for a while, "At this time, the Han and Tang civilizations are the most powerful and advanced civilizations in the world, and other races are inferior to me. ”

Li Congjing raised his head, saw the blue sky, and said with emotion: "The Han and Tang civilizations are not only the basis for our generation to stand in the world, but also the weapon for our generation to conquer the world!" ”

The advanced and strong civilization is the most fundamental advanced and strong, and those who have this, with a little effort, why not worry that all countries will come to the court, and the world will compete for the Tang people?

When Mo Li, Du Qianshu and the others heard Li Congjing's words, they looked at each other and asked in surprise, "Your Highness has already planned to do this?" ”

Li Congjing smiled, "If it weren't for that, why would Lone run to the grassland at this time?" ”

Everyone was impressed.

Li Congjing waved his hand, signaling that everyone did not need to compliment, "A few years ago, the Khitan was quite strong, and in order to curb its national power, during the Tongguang period, he left the town of Youzhou alone. In the fourth year of Tongguang, there was a battle of the West Building, and today Lone and Er led the group to go north, and what he sought was to weaken the Khitan national strength step by step. The empire is getting stronger and stronger, and the Khitan is getting weaker and weaker, and in the long run, the empire can conquer the Khitan in the future, so that it can have a smooth road. At that time, it will not be far from the empire's indoctrination of the Khitan and the indoctrination of the grassland. ”

"Many years ago, Abaoji established the country, the system of founding the country, the example of establishing officials, and the art of building a city, all of which learned the law of my Tang Dynasty, not to mention his construction of Confucian temples, Xing Han and other measures, in fact, since then, the sinicization of the Khitan by the Tang Dynasty has begun." Li Congjing continued, "But this is not enough, far from enough, the most important point is that the sinicization of the Khitan must be under the control of the Tang Dynasty!" The Tang Dynasty educated the Khitan and the grassland, so that they should be courtiers, not rebels, so the process should be led by the Tang Dynasty! ”

"Lonely into the grassland, first set up Yelu Bei, then set up Yelu Deguang, and in the future, I will set up others, that is, to tell the Khitan and tell the grassland: Your king is canonized by the Tang Dynasty, so you are all courtiers of the Tang Dynasty!" Li Congjing looked out of the city from afar, and the green shirt moved with the wind, "Indoctrination is a gradual process, and it is also a subtle process, and what you and I are doing today is the beginning of this indoctrination!" ”

Li Congjing looked at everyone again, "If you don't move the Tang people to the south, not only do you not move, but also encourage businessmen to go north, the former can spread the Tang civilization, and the latter can spread the prestige of the Tang Dynasty." Lone must let the Khitan people understand the Tang Dynasty and the Tang civilization, and only after understanding will they be in awe, will they yearn for it, and will they want to become Tang people. Remove its animal nature, and raise its human nature, so that it is in awe of culture, so that many years later, the Tang Dynasty conquered the Khitan, and the Khitan people will not resist too much, and will not reject the Tang Dynasty to become the master of the Khitan! At that time, whether the people of the Central Plains of the Tang Dynasty moved to the north, or the people of the Tang Dynasty moved the grassland to the south, the Khitan people will be happy. At that time, they will be willing to be sinicized, and they will be proud to be the people of the Tang Dynasty! ”

Li Congjing smiled, this smile didn't look kind, because his eyes were as sharp as a knife, "I am proud to be a Tang person, and I am ashamed to be a Khitan person, this is a civilization invasion!" ”

Mo Li, Du Qianshu and others were stunned, they were all shocked by Li Congjing's words, especially the words "civilization invasion" proposed by Li Congjing, which made them feel empowered.

After a long time, everyone bowed to him, and Mo Li and the others even bowed to Li Congjing, saying: "This is really an eternal achievement!" ”

Li Congjing held on to the wall and looked into the distance, his eyes were far away, "Yesterday you were a different race, today you are the same race, wherever the imperial flag goes, the soil is Tang soil, and everyone is Tang people!" What does it mean to be 'under the whole world, not the king's land, and the shore of the land, not the king'? That's it! ”

He looked back at everyone with blazing eyes, "Gentlemen, go north with the Lone King and fight a war of civilization invasion!" ”

Mo Li and the others were shocked, and they all bowed down and promised, "I am willing to go with His Highness!" ”

Tao Yaoyao looked at Li Congjing's side face, a little dumbfounded, as if stars were about to emerge in her eyes.

On this day, this conversation, known in history - Yikun on politics!
