367 Truth
In late 1666, when the Anti-Han League was busy building artillery and training soldiers, Hong Tiancheng took the lead.
The Anti-Han League displayed hundreds of thousands of troops at the border, and it was naturally impossible for Hong Tiancheng to smash the five Heavenly King Guards divisions in his hand into it, even if he had a Mini rifle, it would be too crazy to attack hundreds of thousands of people with less than 70,000 people.
Strategic offense and strategic defense, but the competition of comprehensive strength, even if the Taiping army relies on the Mini rifle to achieve one, two, or even ten victories, it will be drowned in the endless offensive of hundreds of thousands of troops.
Hundreds of thousands of troops, as long as they use the advantage of strength to intersperse the encirclement, and some people drag the footsteps of the Taiping army, they can besiege the main force of tens of thousands of Taiping army in the field.
These 500,000 troops were not gathered little by little, but the active regular army that the Anti-Han League had already prepared, and if it were not for the successful imitation of the flowering bomb, it would have been enough to launch an offensive this year.
However, Hong Tiancheng's inability to attack the anti-Han alliance does not mean that he cannot do anything else.
The Bavarian-led act of secretly digging into the wall was not seamless, or Hong Tiancheng was tired of the Bavarian-led faction in the German Confederation that always wanted to retain autonomy.
Had it not been for the obstruction of the Bavarian autonomist, the steps towards the true reunification of the German Confederation would not have been interrupted from time to time.
Therefore, after having a new main force in the field, Hong Tiancheng directly ordered to send three regular troops of the Taiping Army using flintlock muskets stationed in Germany, Czechoslovakia, and Hungary to launch a 'counterinsurgency' attack on the territory of the autonomous faction led by Bavaria from three directions.
Even Leopold I of the Kingdom of Austria had to send more than 10,000 troops to participate in the war under the strong pressure of Hong Tiancheng, otherwise Hong Tiancheng threatened to completely overthrow the Habsburg dynasty of the Kingdom of Austria!
It may be a little difficult to destroy the Kingdom of Austria, so many Austrians, the war of law and order alone is enough to worry about it, but to overthrow the rule of the Habsburgs, it is only necessary to defeat the regular army of the Kingdom of Austria, and when the time comes, as in the rule of the Kingdom of Czechoslovakia and the Kingdom of Hungary, promise some insignificant political benefits to the common people, and then put the crown on their heads.
It is much easier to deal with the common people than with these aristocratic politicians.
After all, the people's requirements are very low, nothing more than food, clothing, housing and transportation, except for a few careerists, that flat-headed common people will ask for political rights?
Even in the 21st century, when education for all is civilized, there are not many ordinary people who really care about politics, let alone the 17th century, when illiterates were everywhere and there were many foolish people.
When the Taiping Army first started, the reason why so many white civilians rebelled was mainly because Hongtian became the original accumulation and promulgation of the sacred treasury system and the mandatory Taiping doctrine and Chinese language assessment system, which turned the lives of white civilians upside down, which caused the whole people to resent it.
Now that the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom has its own basic plate and family background, it naturally does not need to enforce the sacred treasury system, let alone use the Taiping doctrine to stabilize its rule, and Chinese learning has become a casual fate, and this kind of language and culture replacement, in a short period of time, the change will attract great resistance, and it needs to be imperceptible for a long time like boiling a frog in warm water.
For example, in the 21st century, many countries have forgotten their native language and complacently adopted English as the official language of their own country after hundreds of years of subtle influence.
Hong Tiancheng comes from later generations and knows very well the horror of this routine, because in the 21st century, the British barbarians, who were originally biased, have made their voices all over the world, even if they are citizens of large countries, they have to learn English, after all, English has been linked to employment and income.
This trend of forcing foreign nationals to take the initiative to learn is the most terrible cultural invasion!
Perhaps, in the eyes of many people, those small countries that insist on their own culture are very ridiculous, but this is also the helplessness of small countries, if the government does not insist, it will not take long for their country's culture to ****, just as in the 21st century in public, it is a truth that suits have become the mainstream, and Western culture has long been under the colonial heritage of hundreds of years, becoming the mainstream trend in the world.
How did the Western whitekees do this?
Is it cultural superiority?
Obviously not, the Western whites are just the first to launch a global colonization movement in the best of times, using guns to spread their culture and language all over the world, and when the general trend has become a trend, even if the rising stars want to change, they are powerless to do anything.
English has become an international language, and if you want to develop the economy and integrate into the international community, learning English has become an essential step, otherwise you will be eliminated by society, and the cruel competitiveness is enough to make foreign nationals become slaves of English.
After learning English, it is natural that they will learn about British culture, and as a result, more and more 'banana people' will appear, which is the fact that countries in the 21st century have no choice but to change.
Although many people don't want to admit it, it is indeed happening, and countries such as Britain and the United States do not even need to take the initiative to carry out any propaganda offensives, and the international trend is the best helper for them to promote their own culture.
What Hong Tiancheng has to do now is to follow the path of the once white man, and be more unified and absolute!
He will no longer force white people to learn Chinese, but will achieve the prevalence of Han culture by changing the language environment from the upper class in his sphere of influence, allowing Chinese to evolve into an 'aristocratic language', and then enslaving the next generation of white people little by little through the control of educational institutions.
Human beings have an inferior nature, that is, the upper and lower effects, the lower class of civilians are always envious of the lifestyle and habits of the upper class, even if they know in their hearts that there is no practical meaning except for pretending to be ×, they still enjoy it, which is common in the society of the 21st century.
The celebrity effect has even become a money-making tool for business promotion and hype.
Hong Tiancheng's plan is not difficult to do, he only needs to put the whole of Europe under his control, it is enough!
To put it bluntly, cultural superiority is not based on historical background, but on war and national strength!
The winning side takes it for granted that its own culture is higher than that of the losing side, and the adult world is not about right and wrong.
Rising to the national level, it is reduced to a naked fist competition, just as Hong Tiancheng believes: the truth is only within the range of the cannon!
