Chapter 19: Singing for Revolution

In 209 AD, it had been seven years since the war between the Chinese Republic and the Han Empire. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The fighting between the two countries stopped, but it was also a big war and a small war, and even Henan Yin directly became a ruin in the first three years, and there was no one for thousands of miles. Fortunately, the bones of the people or soldiers will be specially arranged for the corpse collection team to be recovered, but I am afraid that it will also be everywhere.

Unconsciously, Nanzhong has also become a key theater of operations, and the two sides have tried their best to advance even one kilometer.

During this period, the Huaxia Republic defeated Hanoi County, but it was in a stalemate under Hangu Pass. Wanting to enter the Hedong region, it was blocked by the southern foot of Taihang Mountain, where the two sides launched a three-month battle, and several mountains directly turned into scorched earth.

Expansion is not so simple, especially on battlefields with a mortality rate of more than 45%. Guan Ping was blind in one eye, but Li Hao had a broken arm, and it was Liu Bei's brother-in-law Zhang Fei who started it.

Although Mang Zhang Fei has a violent temper, his martial arts talent is also very admired by Guan Yu, he has cultivated to the point of turning strength in a short period of time, and when he was fighting, he used stratagms to lure Li Hao into the game, and finally Li Hao broke off an arm, so he was killed, and it was a defeat for both sides.

After the severed arm, it was not possible to perform the amputated limb connection surgery with the technology at that time, let alone the arm was left on the battlefield at that time. In desperation, Li Hao could only retire early and returned to Shouchun as an instructor. Looking at his empty arm, Bian Linglong cried for a day and a night.

Guan Ping's situation is okay, but he is blind in one eye, but it does not affect his performance. However, the one-eyed dragon that should have been Xiahoudun's patent was now obtained by him. At that time, it was actually considered lucky, if the arrow was a little more powerful, then maybe it was not a problem of one eye, and it would have fallen on the spot.

The edge of the Yellow River has been completely eroded, and after seven years of fighting, there is no human population for hundreds of miles above the Yellow River. The same is almost the case at the seaside, where trade has also stopped due to the red eyes of both sides, which has directly caused a large number of unsalable goods.

In seven years, the population of China has dropped from about 300 million to 100 million, and this is the result of restraint on both sides. The elderly are almost dying, in the end, because a large amount of medical resources are used for the military. Even the coal used for heating is used to make steel, but fortunately, the forest resources are abundant, and there is still no shortage of firewood.

The Southern Silk Road was fully developed, and the Chinese Republic rebelled against Magadha, which was hostile to the Han Empire, repelled the Cao Hongbu stationed there, and helped them unify India and form the Indian Empire. At the same time, it also directly became a colonial government, and the Chinese Republic stationed 10,000 troops here.

A large number of goods are dumped here, and it also directly becomes a supply point for raw materials. Even for the sake of nearby trade, some merchants also planted tea here, and if Li Yu hadn't stopped it, it would have been impossible to say that even mulberry trees and silkworm breeding would have to be carried out here.

It's not that it can't, it's just that it's not allowed, at least at this stage.

The Roman Empire took advantage of the war in China and completely wiped out the Sabbatical Empire. At that time, the Anxi Empire was only a vassal state of the Kangju Kingdom and the Otsuki Clan, and it had no ability to resist, and the national strength of the other two countries was not much higher, so it was naturally directly attacked by the Roman Empire.

In the end, the Huaxia Republic faced the Roman Empire on the Indian border, and the Han Empire also sent 10,000 men, led by Cao Ren and Cao Hong, to fight against the Roman Empire in the Dawan Kingdom. The battle wiped out 50,000 Roman troops, leaving the opponent devastated. The last two countries helped the Kangju and Otsuki kingdoms to regain their kingdoms and expand their colonial rule.

Outside the territory, both sides maintained enough friendship that at least they would not go to war in front of others. And divided the sphere of influence, after dividing up the Roman Empire's war reparations, quickly distributed the share of trade, further exported a large amount of culture to the Roman Empire, and carved up their high-end and mid-end markets.

At this moment, in Jinyang County, Taiyuan County, the Han Empire, the state of this annexed state is now also very depressed.

The seven-year-long war cooled everyone's blood and wiped out everyone's passion. A large number of young men went to the front, all in the service of the war, and for many children born seven years ago, there was little entertainment in seven years of life, and they began to study literature and martial arts at an early age, and they could not say that they would go to war at the age of eighteen...... If this damn war is going to continue......

The Huaxia Republic has always adopted a strategy of attrition, and there are times when it has the ability to expand, but it does not expand. It is better to invest a large number of firearms and a small group of elites than to fill it with the lives of soldiers. But Rao is like this, and it also consumes nearly 200 million soldiers, and the conditions in the middle and late stages cannot keep up, and it is inevitable to fill it with human lives.

In contrast, the Han Empire did not lose much of its population, at least not as much as the Chinese Republic. It's just that Liu Xing, who is in Chang'an City, can't understand why they have lost so many people, but they haven't collapsed yet.

On the contrary, it was the Han Empire, and dissatisfaction had begun to sprout and bear fruit.

In a small coal mine near Jinyang, a group of Hu slaves are working hard to mine. Due to the tight front, the tasks assigned by the Empire were very important, and these slaves had to work twelve hours a day to meet the mission targets.

Working twelve hours in a black coal kiln, of course, was not a human life. In particular, in order to be able to make a sum of money, the overseer privately increased the time to fourteen hours, and really did not treat slaves as human beings.

"I can't do it anymore! Seven years ago, it was only eight hours of work, but now it is actually working fourteen hours, and the amount of compliance is still so high, the reserves of this kind of small coal mine are not high, and you have to be tired to death if you continue to work like this! At the end of the day, one of the slaves complained to his companion.

"Don't say such things, if you are informed, you will have to be whipped a few times even if you don't die!" The partner next to him immediately persuaded that the Han Empire adopted a joint sitting system and a whistle-blowing system for slaves, and in the past three years, it has even increased the high-pressure system, so they will be whipped at every turn, which has scared these slaves terribly.

"Can we keep working and still be able to live? I've heard that in another coal mine not far away, another compatriot died of exhaustion yesterday! We still have some strength, but how long can we do it?

It's all caused by this war, so what Liu Xing wants, wants to dominate the world, but he ends up involving us. In fact, what does this Chinese world have to do with us, think about our ancestors, how happy they were on the grassland, why should they suffer here? The slave grumbled.

"What, you want to rebel? It's risky, or too risky! The companion immediately understood.

"This is not a rebellion, but an uprising! We have been oppressed for too long, and they promised that as long as we learn the Chinese language and learn the etiquette of the Han family, then they will arrange for us to be Han people. But now? They have not even mentioned it, and they have even increased our tasks, and we have lost even our freedom and salary!

Waiting for us, only exhaustion! We are a great grassland people, whether we die in battle or die of exhaustion, how do you choose? The man couldn't help but speak a little louder.

"We are not the only ones who want to rebel, many slaves, even those working in the cities, no longer want to be exploited by those old men! They have been living a high life and enjoying good things for the past seven years, but most of the workers even have problems with food and have to work overtime in exchange for more pay!

You know, there have been many workers who have died of overwork, but factories and even large farms say that they work overtime voluntarily, so they don't pay overtime, and they don't give pensions! Everyone can see that the Han Empire of this dog x is the empire of a group of big lords and a group of emperors, and there is nothing to do with the people, let alone anything about our slaves!

At the same time, I will tell you why the Southern Huaxia Republic has been able to hold on until now, it is because they have maintained a certain degree of supplies to supply the people. At the same time, even the FΓΌhrer began to work in the fields, and they are the officials who really think about our people, so the people are willing to continue to share weal and butter with them!

Now, everyone has discussed it, and in ten days they will rise up to rebel, a nationwide rebellion, and welcome the Republic of China to the north, whether you dare or not, just one word! Whether you die in battle or die of exhaustion, or even whipped to death, stand up for me if you are a man! The man's voice was a little higher, and everyone around him could hear it.

In fact, they had already heard it in their ears just now, after all, the place where they were being held was so small that they could hear a sound at all. The man didn't lower his voice, how could he not hear it.

Suddenly, even if he planned to inform, he was silent at the moment, since it was a large-scale rebellion, then even if he informed, he would not be beneficial. Even if it is the kind of existence that harms others and benefits oneself, it is weighing the pros and cons at the moment.

"How do you know it's national?" Someone asked.

"Of course I knew, after all, when I was escorting things out, I was contacted by a special member of the Revolutionary Committee. This revolutionary decision, in fact, began to be planned last year, and now I am afraid that the world has known it for a long time, but I am afraid that it is the one in Chang'an City who does not know! Besides, it is no secret that there is a treasure of thousands of miles of sound in the Huaxia Republic! The man said confidently.

"Alright, we're done!" When the man heard this, he immediately clenched his fists and made a decision. This also encouraged most of the people, so they joined the team.

At the same time, there were similar conversations in the factories of Jinyang, and even in the factories and mines of the Han Empire throughout the country, and even among the large farms. Ten days later came the revolutionary uprising, and all the workers called on their friends to join in the action.

As long as anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Han Empire is only afraid that it will be finished, and if it had been forcibly suppressed two years earlier, maybe a lot of things could have been avoided. But after seven years of continuous fighting, not only the common people, but also many officials and even soldiers no longer want to continue fighting.

In addition, if someone intends to sell the country, it is of course best to sell it while the country still has some value. So as early as three years ago, he had secretly joined the revolutionary ranks to help them hide this matter. Now, I'm afraid that the one in Chang'an City knows that things have gone back to the sky!

Perhaps because everyone knows this, the scale has expanded rapidly, even to the point of blatantness!

Ten days later, it happened to be Liu Xing's birthday, and according to the past custom, this year there will be an amnesty for the world and a parade. The emperor will board a chariot and travel with the people.

In the early morning, under the maintenance of the police and armed police of Chang'an City, and even the soldiers, the gate of the Imperial Palace of Chang'an City slowly opened.

Liu Xing sat in a vehicle and slowly appeared under the escort of the honor guard and the guards. There were a large number of palace maids, on the carriages on both sides, sprinkling flower petals to the sides, and the sweet fragrance of flowers loomed in the air.

The procession had advanced less than five hundred meters, and I don't know who suddenly sang: "Get up, hungry and cold slaves." Arise, all the suffering people of the world! The blood is already boiling, and we must fight for the truth! The old world is falling, slaves get up, get up! Don't say we have nothing, we want to be the masters of the world! ”

At first, it was just one or two people singing in a low voice, and then more and more people chimed in. Even some officials or people dressed as rich people have taken off their official hats, and even taken off their official uniforms or brocade robes.

"This is the final struggle, unite until tomorrow, and the republic of all ethnic groups in China must be realized. This is the final struggle, unite until tomorrow, and the republic of all ethnic groups in China must be realized! ”

After singing, the scene had completely rioted, and a large number of people gathered here, directly towards Liu Xing's carriage. They may be powerless, and even in front of those guards in the dark period, they are so powerless, but they have a heart of blood and a heart of indignation!

"There has never been a savior, and it doesn't depend on the Immortal Emperor! It is up to us to create human happiness! We must regain the fruits of our labor and let our minds break out of the cage! Burn that fire red, and strike while the iron is hot!

This is the final struggle, unite until tomorrow, and the republic of all ethnic groups in China must be realized! This is the final struggle, unite until tomorrow, and the republic of all ethnic groups in China must be realized! ”

More people joined in, and the scene was completely out of control, even the officers and police did not stop them, and a few people joined in the singing procession. At this moment, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Han Empire is finished!

"The most hateful of those poisonous snakes and beasts have eaten our flesh and blood! Once they are wiped out, the bright red sun will shine all over the world! This is the final struggle, unite until tomorrow, and the republic of all ethnic groups in China must be realized! This is the final struggle, unite until tomorrow, and the republic of all ethnic groups in China must be realized! The republic of all ethnic groups in China must be realized! ”

Everyone is singing, not only Chang'an City, there has already been news that the whole country is rioting, the people are rebelling, and those slaves, they are all revolting!

A large number of officials announced their surrender and were automatically relieved of their posts, and there were also a large number of insurgents in the border army, who were welcoming the arrival of the troops of the Chinese Republic. After seven years, Huang Zhong also retired, Zu Lang replaced his position, and even Pan Lin and Huang Ran and others also came of age one after another and threw themselves into the front line.

At this moment, the Republic of China drove directly into it, whether it was a county seat, a city, or even a county or a state, and the people inside pushed the city gate open to welcome their arrival!

Except for a few of the Guards who are still doing their duty, the others are also involved in the riots, after all, who has no relatives, who has no family?!

Liu Xing sat on the carriage, looked at the people around him who kept shouting, and sighed silently: "It seems that you are right, the people are now an existence that can no longer be ignored and deceived!" So, I lost ......"

Three months later, Li Yu came to Chang'an City, and at the top of the palace in Chang'an City, he held the jade seal of the country in his hand, and announced to the whole world: "Starting today, we have unified China!" ”
