Section 1363 Three Worlds (2)
"Outside the Great Wall, inside the Green Mountains, it is the place to be served, and it is the same as the land of China, but it can still be divided into ......," Liu Che said slowly. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
When the ministers heard this, they immediately understood that the Son of Heaven was picking up the ancient five-service system.
What five suits?
The Chinese language says: the system of the first king, the state of the inner cloth, the outer state of the marquis, the hou of the bin, the barbarian to observe, the Rong Di desolate. The daily sacrifice, the monthly sacrifice, the time enjoyment, the annual tribute, the final king, the training of the first king.
It means dividing the world into five worlds, from near to far.
These five worlds, closely surrounding the Son of Heaven, together form the world, and share different responsibilities.
Among them, the clothes, waiting clothes, and guest clothes are the actual control, and the clothes that are to be served and the clothes are the influence of fetters.
This was the prototype of the oldest tributary system.
It is also the origin of why China is called China.
The Chinese, the Central Empire, the heaven of the stars and the moon, the core of the world, the focus of everything, is the Celestial Empire, the kingdom of God, and the great core that rules everything, manages everything, and defines everything.
Everybody has to revolve around China.
China's system is the world's system.
China's morality is the world's morality.
Defy? Come on!
In the ancient and barbaric times, countless people were not convinced, and then they were educated.
The rule of three generations, to put it bluntly, is the history of the three generations of kings educating the disobedient around them.
The Xia Dynasty is too old to be traced.
However, the history of the Shang Dynasty, which is only a thousand years old, still leaves many historical materials and even relics to prove how they maintained the authority of the Central Empire.
For example, the king of Shang once conquered the ghost side and Dongyi in the south.
For example, the country of Guzhu once acted as an agent for the Son of Heaven and suppressed the grassland.
Around Rao Leshui between Xianbei and Wuheng, a large number of relics of the Shang Dynasty were unearthed, proving that back then, the Guzhu Kingdom was there, killing decisively and governing the world.
And when you go to Zong Zhou, look at the Book of Songs, and you can see how the Zhou Dynasty maintained the Central Empire.
Time flies, and after the collapse of Zong Zhou, it was the turn of the Han Empire to pick up the five-service system again, rebuild the Central Empire, and the Celestial Empire.
At that time, three generations of ancestors divided the known world into five suits.
Now, Liu Che is reading from the book.
However, the known world has expanded countless times over.
The perspective of the Chinese is no longer limited to East Asia.
Instead, it has crossed the Green Mountains and gone to Central Asia, South Asia and even West Asia.
The outline of the whole of Asia has begun to emerge in front of the eyes of the world.
The world is so vast.
So much so that if you only rely on a pair of feet to walk, I am afraid it will take three years to reach the end.
So much so that even the most optimistic Han nobles do not think that the empire can really conquer and rule such a vast world.
But Liu Che believes that the Chinese people and the Zhuxia nation can do it.
Not to mention, back then, when the Xia Hou clan first established the five-service system, Xia Zi could know that in the world two thousand years later, the entire five-suit he defined had become the land of China, and even the current Chinese territory was far greater than the five-suit he defined?
However, the relay of three generations of former kings passed the baptism of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.
Today's China has indeed done things that the ancestors could not have imagined.
The seal of Yao and the soil of Shun have long been a reality.
Kyushu is unbreakable, and even after two thousand years of baptism, it is still the same until later generations.
And now, Liu Che is paying tribute to the former king, redividing the five suits, and redefining the five suits.
And......
"Although the world is big, it is no bigger than the ...... shortening the distance brought about by technological progress," Liu Che looked at the map and muttered to himself.
Perhaps, even if China has fought through the Green Mountains and established colonies and kingdoms there, it is difficult to effectively control them, so they can only let them go freely.
But what about the future?
When the train starts running, but the steamer starts to whistle with black smoke, when the radio waves give the first signal.
Everything geography and geopolitics will be rewritten.
Since then, thousands of miles have changed.
Even if it is tens of thousands of miles away, it will only take a few minutes to send a telegram from Chang'an to West Asia.
If you have airplanes and high-speed rail, it's different.
Officials in Chang'an can depart from Chang'an in the morning and arrive in Central Asia in the evening to deal with local government affairs.
Therefore, Liu Che is very confident that a thousand years later, today's five suits will once again become the China at that time.
As long as the local people begin to recite the articles of Confucius, Mozi, Han Feizi, Yin Wenzi, and Lao Tzu, as long as the local people wear Chinese costumes and wear their shirts, they bow down and bow again.
Then, in the future, the strong cohesion and centripetal force that Zhuxia culture itself possesses will automatically assimilate them.
But to do all this, you have to decentralize.
Give the power to heroes and heroes who have the ability, skill and perseverance to do these things.
Otherwise, it's all your old Liu family's business.
The results are out, and that's it, and it's nothing more than a mess.
Why should others go to such lengths to give you Liu's life?
There may be such people, but there will never be many.
Why were the Western colonizers so awesome in later generations?
Isn't it just that people's colonial system has a better distribution of benefits?
It's like the East India Company, which made money and stuffed it directly into its own pockets.
However, Liu Che felt that the East India Company or something was weaker than China's ancient feudal system.
The East India Company could not last long.
There is no clear site and definition.
However, China's feudal system directly distributed the land and the people on the associated land to the aristocracy.
Then, these nobles overcame obstacles and actively explored.
Soon the whole of the five suits became China.
For example, the state of Chu, before Chu, Xiong Yi was just the viscount of the Zhou Dynasty.
The original fief was only a hundred miles of land, and it was even surrounded by enemies.
But in just a hundred years, the ancestor king of Chu established a powerful Chu kingdom, and by the time he was King Wu of Chu, he had already dared to bargain with Zhou Tianzi.
And the Hanyang Zhuji, who is not the Zongzhou clan, is related to the Son of Heaven?
However, they came to the wild Hanyang and Huaisi regions at that time, led the people, sowed the fire of civilization, and established a prosperous and developed kingdom.
There are also the ancestors of the Qin State, who snatched land and population from the mouth of the dog Rong with a knife and a gun, and by the time of Qin Mugong, they basically recovered the homeland of Zongzhou.
And these spirits are still alive in China today.
It's just that no one is going to release them.
All Liu Che has to do now is release them.
Looking at the ministers, Liu Che slowly spoke: "In the place to be served, I will divide the feudal princes, princes and kings into hundreds, as for the ...... of their feudal kingdoms" Liu Che smiled slightly and said: "Count three times the number of households in his food estate......"
The world is so big!
Even the world within the Green Mountains is huge.
In addition to the desert Gobi that cannot be inhabited, there are grasslands, mountains, lakes, plains, and even hilly areas that stretch for tens of thousands of miles.
Even if Liu Che gave the princes, kings, and princes the benefits of three times the number of households, in fact, it was completely impossible to divide such a big world.
But it doesn't matter, first occupy those places that are advantageous and suitable for human habitation.
Of course, in this process, these princes, kings, and princes will have to face all kinds of challenges.
For example, what if that place had an owner? What to do?
Whether to kill all the aborigines or expel them, or turn them into Chinese, these things, Liu Che will not care, and he is too lazy to care.
No matter what means they use, it is enough to turn the local area into their own fiefdom.
Of course, the Han army will be their strong backing and assistance.
In addition, the climate and conditions of different places are different, and how to develop and consolidate them is also their business.
Liu Che was not in the mood to teach them hand-in-hand.
I can't teach if I want to!
As for what if they fail?
Let's go again!
The three-legged toad is not easy to find, and the two-legged feudal nobles can't be found yet?
Liu Che doesn't believe in this evil anymore!
"If you want to obey the feudal country, you should be like the Chinese story, and practice the Chinese law and Han ......law," Liu Che added: "However, in order to compensate, I will pardon all countries for a hundred years, and within 50 years, I can do without Chinese stories and practice Chinese law and ......."
This is to copy the wisdom of the Hereafter.
However, it is different from the afterlife.
Liu Che and the current Han family will never tolerate adultery.
If someone wants to engage in splitting, then try the Han army's knife is not sharp enough?
Moreover, China now does not need to worry about something similar happening.
The reason is very simple, you Chinese don't want to be a two-legged walking animal?
Crazy?
In ancient times, the centripetal force and cohesion of the Zhuxia people towards their own culture and nation were unimaginable to outsiders. (To be continued.) )
