Chapter 182: China Produces Emperors This Year (8)
However, among the many guys who dreamed of being an emperor in the land of China in the seven years of Chongzhen, the boring old peasants of the "Han Empire" in Liujiazhai in Funiu Mountain are not the most outrageous. After all, they gathered at least a few hundred people, occupied a small piece of territory, and their brains were relatively sober, and they did not rashly attack the county seat to kill officials and rebel, so that the "Han Empire" actually survived for more than a month after the "founding of the country".
In contrast, Zhu Laosi, a god in the countryside of Tongzhou in Beizhili, took out all his savings while being the emperor, opened the flowing water seat to recruit fast-stomached righteous men from all over the world, and gathered more than 80 old, weak, sick and disabled people in two days, and then excitedly sent troops to attack the Forbidden City in Beijing, because all the funds have been exhausted, the flowing water seat can not continue to open, and if you don't act quickly to return to the capital, these hungry ghosts who have nothing to eat will disperse in a hurry!
As a result, the "Emperor of the Divine Han" took a group of hungry men to burn incense and pray in front of the Chengtian Gate for a long time, and the heavenly soldiers and generals were not invited, but a vicious Guanning iron cavalry came, and immediately swords and guns were fired, and the rabble was cut to the ground crying father and mother, and finally the corpses were all over the street......
Of course, since everyone has become the emperor, as a man, in addition to the Jin Ge Iron Horse to conquer the world, he naturally can't forget the seventy-two concubines and three thousand beauties of the three palaces and six courtyards. As a result, as soon as many reckless sons of heaven sat on the dragon chair and called themselves lonely, they couldn't wait to start the draft with great fanfare, even if it was a small court in the countryside, even if the "empire" was just starting to do everything simply, but at least one hundred and eight show girls still needed it!
What's more, some reckless geniuses simply did not think about how to recruit troops from the beginning of their accession to the throne, but completely regarded beauty pageants as the foundation of the emperor's business!
For example, in Ganyu County, the "Great Holy Country" of Haizhou, there is a guy who seems to be a dramatist, who watched the farce of Xu Xin'er, the holy aunt of Huaguo Mountain, becoming the emperor, so he got a dragon robe in a costume, and then decided to engage in 3,000 beauties of 72 concubines in three palaces and six courtyards. However, although he is penniless, he is handsome, and he has the ability to fool around, so there is really no way for someone to offer money to the door to ask for the title, even in the modern society where illiteracy has been basically eliminated and the Internet knowledge has exploded, there are still many "people who do not know the truth" who have gone astray, and they have been deceived by various fooling masters. Then in the era of the feudal dynasty when scholars were very expensive, all kinds of ignorant and foolish people who were easy to fool were even more numerous......
It's a pity that this "drama emperor" has just sealed dozens of prime ministers, plus more than a dozen one-word side by side kings, and the seventy-two concubines have not yet made up half of them, and the "Pingtian Great Sage" who got the news has sent ten fierce and vicious little minions, and these imperial generals have also immediately made birds and beasts.
Next, the "Emperor of the Drama" who was glamorous and blessed was escorted back by the minions to verify his identity and cut off his head. And the show girls he selected, among them who were upright, were naturally accepted by the "Pingtian Great Sage" as the lady of the village. As for the crooked melons and cracked dates, they were rewarded to their minions.
However, because the world is really fragmented today, located on the edge of the areas controlled by major forces, and there are many places that have fallen into a vacuum of anarchy, there are still many reckless emperors and grassy court courts, which have survived unknownly, stirring up this troubled world more and more......
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
Regarding the unprecedented "National Emperor Movement" in Chongzhen's seven years, Wang Qiu, who has been hearing all kinds of relevant news, just feels very interesting and ridiculous. Because in his time, China has not had an emperor for a long time, and even the name of the emperor has been completely stinky.
According to the materialist concept of science and history, in the current year of great chaos in the world, the emperor and the prince are worthless. The so-called big fish eat small fish, small fish eat, as long as there is a piece of territory and a little strength, anyone who has the mind can be an emperor to play. In fact, many famous emperors in history, such as Zhu Yuanzhang, Shi Le, Hong Xiuquan, etc., seem to have come over like this, and the eldest brother should not laugh at the second brother!
However, the Confucian scholars of the Ming Dynasty in this time and space did not see it that way, in their minds, the title of emperor obviously carried a lot of weight, you must know that since the time of the first emperor, Chinese intellectuals have been accustomed to having an emperor above their heads, thinking that they were born to "protect the king and the lower security", and they can't even imagine how their lives should be lived without an emperor. But the problem is that what they don't know is that when there are emperors everywhere, how can they find their own value in life in this new world where demons are dancing wildly?
Originally, on the ground of East Asia 6, no matter how unruly and arrogant those small countries were, but in general, in terms of political influence, no one can deny that the emperor of China is the "pride of the sky", the supreme king of the center, and the title of emperor represents the guardian of civilization and sacredness, and has a crushing appeal in the face of the monarchs of the surrounding countries. The so-called "under the whole world, it is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister". Whoever holds the sacred title of "Emperor" is the supreme ruler who dominates all the nations of the East.
Although every turbulent and turbulent era in the Central Plains will make the aura of the title of "emperor" fade a lot. However, the ensuing era of great unification will make the emperor's authority of the Chinese Son of Heaven shine brightly, like a dazzling light that cannot be seen directly, sweeping across the entire East Asia.
However, the current situation in China is particularly bizarre, and the entire traditional imperial structure is more fragmented than the previous five dynasties and ten kingdoms. There are as many as a dozen emperors with national popularity alone. As for all kinds of reckless geniuses, there are even more than they can be counted!
In this way, the entry certification level of the Chinese emperor is equivalent to a subversive plummet, and there is no longer any need to pay attention to any bloodline and family, and it is no longer even "the strong soldier can be the son of heaven", but the real "emperor takes turns to do it, and he will come to my house next year"!
And according to the principle of market supply and demand, once there are more emperors, they will definitely be worthless. Imagine, when the future emperor His Majesty, waving a full guard of honor and flag, hugging each other in front and back, and swaggering through the market with gongs and drums, a certain street watching the lively cattle herding old man, but said disapprovingly: The emperor is a fart, my second uncle, my third cousin, my cousin-in-law, my fifth uncle, my cousin's paralyzed fifth uncle, grandfather, and my cousin's fool son have all been emperors! If it weren't for the fact that my house was already dilapidated at that time, and I didn't have the money to set up a running water banquet to entertain guests, maybe I would have been addicted to the emperor again!
When the common people generally think that the emperor is like that, there is not much left of the sacred aura of the term "emperor".
For example, in China in the 90s, if you claimed to be the boss or the general manager, everyone would immediately be in awe. But what about the 21st century...... Many cats and dogs who don't know where they come from are also genuine bosses or general managers.
For the Confucian scholars who are bent on "learning literature and martial arts and selling them to the emperor's family", such an earth-shaking situation is really a dog.
In short, in the ideological confusion of the scholars in the Central Plains, the sacredness of imperial power under the traditional feudal imperial system was devastated......
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
Although as a traverser, Wang Qiu basically has an attitude of staying out of the world to watch the monkey show for this vigorous trend of claiming the emperor on the land of China. But when the current Huameng side did not just look on the situation of this group of demons dancing wildly, but took the initiative to intervene to add fuel to the flames and consciously promote the further fragmentation of China, he finally felt that something seemed to be wrong.
Then, Political Commissar Guo told him very frankly that according to the supreme resolution of the Huameng, it was indeed planned to let China be in a state of warlord chaos for a long time, and by the way, destroy the original traditional feudal order and imperial authority: making the emperor a rotten cabbage in China was also one of the measures.
“…… The reason for making such a seemingly cruel decision is mainly due to the limitation of objective conditions, and our power is actually not as strong as it seems. It is true that the Huameng, with its military technology far ahead of its time, can easily destroy any indigenous army on the Chinese map at any time, but the problem is that, at the same time, we do not have the cadre team and human resources to transform the entire traditional Chinese society.
If we want to conquer the Central Plains, we must not just change the dynasty without changing the medicine, but will bring about an earth-shaking social change. At the very least, it is necessary to eliminate the landlords and gentry and carry out land reform. But land reform is not about violence alone. For example, the division of land needs to be remeasured, the title deeds need to be remade, and the amount of taxes to be assessed must be accurately calculated, which requires a large and reliable cadre team.
However, at present, Huameng does not have that much talent pool. During the War of Liberation, the various base areas had already been tempered by the blood and fire of the eight-year War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and had trained several million grassroots cadres with excellent quality and reliable ideology. At the end of the Republic of China, the large landlords were on the verge of bankruptcy and disintegration under the destruction of successive wars and the looting of Jiang Ji's national government, but when they carried out land reform and established a new order, they were still so bloody and cruel.
Before the Big 6 Raid, the total population of the entire Huameng was less than one million, and the cadre team was even more stretched. However, in just two years, it has successively swallowed the entire Liaoning basically intact Guangdong, half Zhejiang and half Shandong, plus part of Guangxi. Except for Liaodong, the rest of these areas have not been destroyed by large-scale wars, and the Huameng needs to personally carry out land reform and kill the gentry, where can so many cadres be gathered at one time? As a result, it is still indigestion, and the Shandong front has recently been forced to abandon Jinan on its own initiative and return to Qingzhou Mansion......
Since we can't swallow the elephant with a snake for a while, we simply let China continue to mess with it, so that we can gradually encroach on the ...... when we can."
In the matter of the revolutionary war, the layman looks at the tactics, and the insider looks at the logistics. If they did not prepare enough supplies and management personnel, they hurried to become the "savior", and most of the end ended up as the second "Khmer Rouge": the Cambodian revolutionaries, greedy for honor, liberated the capital Phnom Penh too quickly and prematurely, but were neither ready to take over the city's cadres nor ready to feed the two million urban population. In the face of the imperialist blockade and the imminent famine, the urban population had to be forcibly relocated to the countryside, during which various organizational work was chaotic, resulting in a large number of people dying of starvation and exhaustion. In the face of surging complaints and dissatisfaction, he had to carry out a purge and kill a large number of people, who knew that the butcher knife could not be let go when it was raised...... In the end, it is ruined.
In fact, in addition to the constraints of objective conditions, from a subjective point of view, the department's overseas travelers do not want peace in China to be restored.
To put it harshly, even if the Huameng had enough cadre reserves to carry out land reform for the whole of China, the traversers would freeze such plans.
After all, in the sense of land reform itself, it has never been a movement to create chaos, but a movement to stop it. The goal was to prevent the disorderly plundering of the landlords, and to prevent the peasants from abandoning their fields and fleeing because they could not stand the excessive exploitation of the landlords. In this way, the reduction of grain production can be avoided to a large extent, the collapse of social order can be prevented, and finally the peasants can survive in their hometowns.
But in this way, people can live well in their hometowns, so why immigrate to wild places overseas? Even though there is an untold amount of land in the Americas, Africa and Australia that can be distributed to the poor in China, they are probably still more willing to live half-starved in their hometowns.
In this era when Chinese still regarded themselves as the "Celestial Empire", the common people would not feel that "the moon of a foreign country is rounder than that of China".
Therefore, in order to allow all unopened corners of the world to be occupied by the Chinese and to allow the various republics of the Chinese League to receive a steady stream of immigrants to replenish them, it is necessary to use endless wars to massacre famine and other sufferings, create tens of thousands of displaced people, completely crush the spirit of the "heavenly kingdom" in the hearts of the people of the Central Plains, and let them understand that obeying the immigration arrangement plan of the "Ao-Song thieves" is the only way to survive.
In this way, the warlords of all walks of life, who fought viciously on the map of the Ming Dynasty and made the common people unable to find a way to live, played more of the role of allies and helpers in the global colonization of the Hua League, rather than as an obstacle to overseas colonization, so naturally there was no need to rush to eliminate and annex.
More importantly, this seemingly bullish global Chinese alliance traverser alliance is itself an extremely unstable "international organization", and there are huge conflicts of ideas and interests between various traverser groups, and there are even old grudges. It is entirely by the strong pressure of the modern Chinese government that they are barely brought together, and the current degree of integration is far from enough. Therefore, in this fragile balance, no one can occupy the whole of China in one go, so as to achieve absolute dominance, otherwise it will be attacked by other groups.
The only way to keep China's big 6 in a state of chaos and secession for a long time, while constantly "squeezing out" a large number of Chinese immigrants. The traversers, on the other hand, are content to occupy some important coastal areas for dumping goods and receiving populations, so that each group can install people on the big 6 and maintain the balance of power between each other, so as to maintain harmony and stability within the alliance, otherwise the traversers scattered around the world will have big problems within themselves.
Of course, this kind of thing that is not easy to spread out and say clearly needs everyone to understand it from the heart.
“…… In short, Huameng's strategy for China's big 6 has come to an end, and there is no plan to send troops again in a few years. Wang Qiu nodded and concluded, "...... I heard that the Huameng in Australia has been basically completed, and I plan to ask Xu Xiake to write a travelogue? Has that guy's man arrived? ”
“…… Ah, Xu Xiake is still floating on the sea at this moment! It will be a while before we get to Australia...... Why don't we go to Australia first? ”
“…… It's good that after staying in Hangzhou for so long, I'm tired of seeing the scenery of West Lake and the tide of the Qianjiang River. Next, let's go to Australia to see kangaroos. ”
In short, in this year when the whole of China was rich in emperors, the Ming Dynasty walked into the grave of history in an extremely strange form.
At the same time, the ancients of the Ming Dynasty in the area occupied by the "Australian thieves" ushered in a new life in ignorance......
