For the invaders, there is no need to be grateful, and there is no need to say much about the fallacy that only when they are colonized will they be reborn, and the good view that rape is good after being raped can only show that the view is very deformed.

Whether it is the two Song Dynasty before or the current Ming Dynasty, in this era is a chaotic era of transformation into a new mode of production.

Song was because the backward regime of Yuanmeng replaced him, and Yuan was worse than the Qing Dynasty, so he still waited for people, and his enthusiasm for entering the peak era of the small peasant economy was not so high.

The dynasty established by the peasants was originally a dynasty with the main purpose of maintaining the economic and social stability of the peasants, but the sons of the peasants were no longer peasants, and their successors would helplessly watch the Han people under this empire use their wisdom to give birth to new production methods again.

And as an empire, the ruler will either revise the government according to the development of the times, or be overthrown by the new forces.

But the last way to do it is to be disturbed by outside forces, to be stopped on the eve of his cocoon and become a butterfly, or to be forcibly turned into a wounded butterfly.

Worse still, this foreign force is still a more backward civilization, and before this power is assimilated, it will inevitably destroy hundreds of years of development.

Zhu Youzhen knew that the current dispute between the Ming Dynasty and the Manchu Qing Dynasty was in fact a dispute between the North and the South blocs, and furthermore, it was a struggle between the old-fashioned defenders and advocates of the small-scale peasant economy and the new forces that hoped for change.

The greatest insight of the Manchu military aristocracy such as Dolgon was to dominate the world and build a prosperous dynasty that belonged to them, and Wu Sangui and other Han bureaucrats and landlords who defected to the Manchu military aristocracy wanted nothing more than to continue to be their big landlords and make their own contributions to the stability of the new dynasty.

What Zhu Youzhen relied on was that the Jiangnan chaebols, the low-level gentry and the common people wanted to continue to do business in peace and stability, study calmly, and honestly farm to make a living.

Naturally, they didn't have the consciousness and insight to let Huaxia enter the industrial civilization, and Zhu Youzhen didn't require them to have the insight to surpass this era, which was too difficult after all.

But at least they all hope that the existing state of peace will not be broken, and they do not want to become victims of the establishment of a new dynasty, after all, in the future, even if the Manchus really become the Qing dynasty that dominates the world, it will be difficult for people like them to share enough benefits, and the interests they hold now will be deprived by the new big landlords and big bureaucrats.

They are only saving themselves, not seeking change.

In times of chaos, stability must always be achieved, and when the old balance is broken, a new balance must be established, whether it is reconstruction or self-help, there will always be one side to be eliminated.

What Zhu Youzhen and the Southern Group behind him have to do now is to save themselves, but as a descendant, he hopes that through the purpose of self-help, the Southern Group behind him can change for self-help, and the pressure from the outside world should not be the cause of the degeneration of the group, but to speed up the speed of renewal.

In his previous life, Zhu Youzhen, as a student who was deeply rooted in the education of a certain Juche ideology, naturally had the most basic habit of doing every step in a down-to-earth manner.

From a pragmatic point of view, whether it is economic strength, or the popular support rate of imperial rule, or national consciousness, the southern bloc represented by itself can defeat the northern bloc, but the bureaucracy is a little bloated and corrupt because of hundreds of years of accumulation, and it is not as vibrant as the new regime, but it can at least have a draw with the northern bloc, and then there will be a Southern Song dynasty.

As long as there is a Southern Ming like the Southern Song Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty still has a chance to transform in the south.

The Southern Song Dynasty in history is because it met a Yuan after the Jin, and its fate can not be said to be tragic, and now if the Ming Dynasty survives in the way of the Southern Ming Dynasty for another hundred years, Zhu Youzhen does not believe that there will be another nomadic regime after the Qing Dynasty.

Even if it appears, it is very cost-effective to fight for another hundred years for the Han regime, if history gives the Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, he is already ancient at that time, and naturally there is no way.

But at least as long as Zhu Youzhen is alive, he will not let Daming stop changing for a day.

As soon as Zhu Youzhen pulled the reins, the war horses under his command stopped on the school yard of the Second Army of the Guards.

Now is the time when the situation is changing, although he as an emperor has no time to go to the front line to strategize, but naturally he can't stay in the deep palace all the time in the rear, as an emperor, he also has to start practicing bow horses and practicing firearms, which is not only to strengthen his body but also to prepare for the worst that may occur in the future.

The Second Military Academy of the Guards Army is the former Nanjing Jingying School Field, and the area is naturally not small, and now Zhu Youzhen is either staying in the Qianqing Palace or staying here, and has close contact with the officers of the Guards.

The 123rd Army of the Ming Dynasty is a military group composed of ordinary people and scholars, in line with the concept that Zhu Youzhen is led by intellectuals and the people at the bottom as the main force, and the guards imply that the Son of Heaven is pro-army, so as to correct the wrong concept that good men are not soldiers, and enhance the sense of honor of soldiers.

Although the date of Chongzhen's eighteenth year Enke was repeatedly postponed due to the lack of time to take care of the northern scholars' southward migration, the examination has been declared over.

In order to encourage the world's soldiers to join Rong, Zhu Youzhen has previously issued an edict that soldiers who serve in the army can still participate in the Enke examination.

Therefore, in addition to the First Corps of the Guards Army fighting and some of the soldiers who no longer thought of their merits, there were still many soldiers in the Guards who participated in the examination, especially the Second Army of the Guards Army, which is now stationed in Gyeonggi, Nanjing.

Emperor Zhu Youzhen of Chongzhen even personally held a grand banquet for the examinees of the Second Army of the Guards to show his importance to them.

Huang Daozhou, the new left attendant of the Ministry of Rites, naturally knew Zhu Youzhen's deep meaning, and knew that the scholars of the Guards system could not be easily dismissed in the Enke examination, and they could only be strict in everything, otherwise once there was a wrong judgment and it came from the hands of the soldiers of the Guards, no one did not believe that His Majesty would not take advantage of this to severely punish the chief examiner.

As soon as Zhu Youzhen came back from the school, he got the admission list for the examination from Huang Daozhou, the left waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and saw Xia Wanchun's name ranked seventh, and couldn't help laughing: "This son is only fifteen, and before that, he was also a lifter?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, Xia Wanchun is the son of Xia Yunyi, the former head of the Ministry of Officials, it is rumored that he knew the scriptures at the age of five, and he knew poetry at the age of seven, studied under Chen Zilong, entered school at the age of nine, and was the head of the case, and he was already in high school at the age of eleven! It is a rare prodigy in the world, Chongling High School, of course, since Dingding, there are many people who are so smart, such as Yang Gong of Shu, Zhang Gong of Chu......"

Zhu Youzhen saw that Huang Daozhou was afraid that he would suspect him of presiding over the scientific expedition and desperately defended him, so he interrupted him: "No need to say any more, Huang Shilang, I ask you, how long has it been since Daming has appeared as a talented man of Lianzhong Sanyuan?" ”

"Wechen understands what His Majesty means, Wechen will go to change the ranking and re-issue the list!" Huang Daozhou hurriedly took the roster from Zhu Youzhen and ran out of the Qianqing Palace.
