Chapter 275: On the Integration of Nations

Li Junxian returned to the camp, and it was already night, so he immediately began to close his eyes and recuperate. Today he killed this Chaolu, and he killed it through a "contest". And the Turks thought that Li Junxian's method was clearly bullying the Turks with strong military strength. However, Li Junxian used military strength to bully the Turks, but the Turks did not have the slightest way. Even if the Turks sued Li Shimin in the future, Li Shimin would not punish Li Junxian for a group of slaves who died in the country. Li Junxian's biggest gain today was that he was able to take the opportunity to kill more than a thousand Turks, which made the Turks feel Li Junxian's horror and made them dare not resist. For this kind of steppe people, you can't talk to them about benevolence and righteousness, you have to talk about force. If you talk about righteousness, instead of listening, they will laugh at you and use their scimitars to tell you what force is.

But Li Junxian actually used more powerful force to oppress them, but they didn't dare to resist. In a way, the steppe people and the Japanese of later generations are the same bird, and as long as you are stronger than them, they will be as obedient as a dog. But if you fall, then they will rebel against you. This has been the case in all dynasties, taking advantage of China's decline to enter the Central Plains, this Li Junxian will definitely not be able to let history repeat itself. Li Junxian's goal is to destroy all the grasslands, and then let the Han people build a city here, so that they can completely occupy this grassland and prevent future troubles forever.

And Ash Nayun came to Li Junxian's tent and said angrily: "Li Junxian, what do you want this time?" You have killed more than a thousand of our Turks again! More than 1,000 people, you really can do it! ”

"Then when you Turks killed us Han Chinese, what couldn't you do?" Li Junxian asked rhetorically.

"Then where did you Han people's etiquette and honesty go? Haven't you read your Han Chinese books? The Han people pay attention to benevolence and righteousness, and do not talk about killing. You Han people pay attention to repaying grievances with virtue, can't you learn from the culture of your Han sages? Isn't it against the teachings of the sages of your Han people that you use killing to solve the problem like this? Ashina Yun said angrily.

However, Li Junxian said a very annoying sentence: "I only studied after I became a general, and I did not study the teachings of the saints." Only what you say is to repay grievances with virtue. I haven't heard of it, I've just heard of it to report grievances. The so-called repaying grievances with virtue is nothing more than a theory obtained by some people out of context. To repay grievances directly, that is, there is only one meaning, blood for blood, tooth for tooth! ”

Ash Nayun didn't expect that Li Junxian would say it so directly and so politely. The Han culture that Ashinayun learned was the mainstream culture of Han propaganda, and he didn't know what else in Chinese history was about repaying grievances with virtue and repaying grievances with straightforwardness. But Ashinayun knew it clearly. Li Junxian is obviously different from other Han generals. Other Han generals pay attention to whether they can kill or not, but Li Junxian mainly focuses on killing. Li Junxian is a living force that kills and injures the enemy in large quantities every time, so as to achieve the goal of annihilating the enemy.

Li Junxian accepted the military thinking of the later Mongols, believing that the most important thing was to annihilate the enemy's vital forces and reduce the enemy's war potential. As for the seizure of the enemy's city, that is secondary. The Mongols did not pay attention to capturing cities, but to reduce the enemy's war potential, and finally used force to coerce the enemy to surrender.

Li Junxian actually believed that the reason why the Mongols were not able to completely rule the Central Plains was because they had no culture. Without a culture of its own, it can only be glued together by force. But as soon as their force decayed, the Mongol officers and nobles began to corrupt, and their armies were weakened. That's when the time came for all sorts of characters to rebel.

Li Junxian's strategic thinking was to kill and injure a large number of foreigners, and then force them to accept the culture of the Han people and get rid of their national habits, so that they could completely exterminate the foreigners. Don't think this is very simple. But if they don't break the backbone of that nation, they won't give up their culture.

Later, the more powerful ones were the Manchus, who slaughtered a large number when they entered the Central Plains. As a result, the Han people were forced to accept the shaving of their hair. The backbone of the Han people was broken, so they had the situation of shaving their hair and accepting the habits of the Manchus. And Li Junxian also clearly knew that if Cleavage wanted the Turks to completely surrender, not rebel, and accept the customs and habits of the Han people, it was necessary to break their backbones by force and make them feel afraid by bloody means, so that it could be regarded as a completed routine.

It is almost impossible for a people to change its habits by peaceful means. As a historical researcher, Li Junxian is certainly not as naïve as in YY's novels, thinking that as long as a large number of people migrate, the habits of the Hu people can be changed. As long as you look at the history carefully, you can know that the reason why those Hu people were able to change their habits was not because their population was killed too much, they were already completely afraid of the Han people. If it weren't for the complete fear of the Han Chinese, they would not have chosen to integrate into this nation. In fact, most of the Hu people integrated into the Han people because the Han people were strong, and they were afraid of the Han people's revenge and massacre, so they pretended to be Han people, so that they completely integrated into the Han people in the next generation.

What Li Junxian has to do is to completely conquer the spiritual will of these Hu people, so that those Turkic people can take the initiative to integrate into the Han nationality in fear, which is a good way. If these Turks were not able to feel fear, their integration into the Han Chinese would be very slow. Even, if under the force of the Hu people, the Han people may be Hu people. For example, Gao Huan, a powerful minister of the Northern Wei Dynasty during the Northern and Southern Dynasties, was a Han who was Huhua. Therefore, human beings can be forced to integrate into that nation under strong force, even the Han people, who claim to have a high civilization.

Therefore, force is the best means of integrating a nation, but it is not a civilization. In later generations, the West claimed to be the most civilized country, but Chinese people spread all over the world, but few of them integrated into the West, and they still maintained Chinese living habits, and even had Chinatowns in foreign countries. Therefore, all evidence shows that civilization is not a means to bring nations together, but that force is the foundation!

Li Junxian just wanted to use bloody force to let those Turks fuse in. (To be continued......)
