"I can't believe that the Qing court would go like this."

"Yes, I was still very strong in the Qing court before."

"The early stage was really okay, after all, the level of productivity was not that high at that time. Everyone is in the era of cold weapons, and the Qing court has performed well. But as soon as productivity levels suddenly skyrocket, and you don't keep up, you're doomed. ”

"If you fall behind, you will be beaten, this is what Teacher Chen Fan told us."

"I think that Mr. Chen Fan is not only talking about the Qing court, but also a big warning for us."

"Yes, no matter what dynasty or period it is, backwardness will be beaten."

I have to say.

Although Chen Fan told the Qing Dynasty in a storytelling way.

But.

Chen Fan, the Qing Dynasty that is a story in the eyes of many people, has greatly attracted the interest of many people.

This interest is not really very fond of the Qing Dynasty.

They are interested in this.

However, it was borrowed from the Qing Dynasty to carry out a series of practical research topics.

After all.

Although in reality, this has not happened to them.

But.

If your country really reached such a point, would this happen in reality?

Answer:

Everyone thinks that it will happen.

"I wonder what the Qing court will do in the future?"

"yes, if I had lived at that time, I felt like the whole country might be in danger."

A group of scholars continue to research.

Of course.

This study has also been noticed by a number of universities.

In fact.

When Chen Fan talked about the Qing Dynasty, many colleges and universities had already begun to notice.

After they paid more and more attention, the major universities carried out a comprehensive attention to the Qing Dynasty mentioned by Chen Fan.

In addition to them.

A group of historical research institutes, a group of international research experts, and a group of research specialists on changes in the world pattern...... That's where it comes in.

……

"Teacher Chen Fan, I am Sun Jun, head of the Department of History of Peking University."

"Director Sun, why do you have my phone."

"Teacher Chen Fan, I also have a lot of connections, so I want to call you. Don't get me wrong, we are very interested in the Qing Dynasty that you talked about in the live broadcast room these days. You know, these days, all the teachers and students in our entire history department are talking about the Qing Dynasty that you are talking about. Especially yesterday, our teachers and students discussed this topic until 2 o'clock in the morning. ”

"Thank you."

"So, Mr. Chen Fan, this time we would like to invite you to give us a few classes at Peking University."

"Uh, Director Sun, I have to say, I'm just telling the story, there's no need to be so serious."

"Teacher Chen Fan, you may be telling a story in the eyes of many people. However, in our eyes, we believe that what you are telling is a story, which has a lot to do with our study of history, for the whole history and culture, and even for the situation in our country now. ”

"That ......"

"Teacher Chen Fan, we sincerely want to invite you. In addition, we have applied for a grant from the school for you to come to our Peking University to teach this time. ”

"Money?"

Chen Fan was stunned: "It doesn't seem to cost much money to go to class." ”

After speaking.

Chen Fan subconsciously understood: "Oh, I understand, I understand, Director Sun, I have a heart." ”

All right.

Chen Fan has indeed taken a lot of classes in major universities.

But Peking University, Chen Fan really likes it.

Coupled with Director Sun's heart, Chen Fan reluctantly accepted it.

Although Chen Fan excused himself a few times on the phone.

However, I couldn't excuse myself, so I accepted it.

Of course.

There is another important reason.

In the previous life, Peking University was an important initiator of new culture.

In such an institution, he not only gathered a number of masters.

And.

Through the continuous exchanges of these masters, China has also found a new way to save the country.

……

"Brother Fan, Brother Fan, have you gotten up, continue the live broadcast."

"I don't have time to broadcast live today."

"Ah, Brother Fan, you can't be lazy."

"I'm not lazy, I'm going on a business trip recently."

"Where are you going?"

"Peking University."

"What are you going to do at Peking University?"

"What do you say?"

"Don't tell me, you're going to Peking University for classes."

"That's right."

Chen Fan nodded: "The class will start at Peking University in a few days, and the content is similar to our live broadcast." ”

"I ...... Grass"

Such a news can be said to have stimulated a lot of fans at once.

"Brother Fan, I will give you full marks for your forced pretense."

"Brother Fan, top you, I finally saw you taking classes at Peking University, our highest university."

"It's necessary, Brother Fan has already had this strength, but he hasn't been there before."

Yes.

Peking University has always been the highest university in China, and sometimes it is not even one of them.

In everyone's mind, Peking University is the temple of all Chinese people.

So.

Think about it.

What kind of state is it to teach in such a hall of all the people?

And Chen Fan is not an ordinary teacher.

They were ceremoniously invited by Peking University.

This is no longer teaching, for many fans.

But they understood.

This time, Chen Fan went to Peking University, which was his missionary journey.

"What, brothers, did you go to Peking University to listen to lectures together?"

"I, I, I."

"I want to go too."

"That's together."

"Don't go, buddy, let's watch the live stream."

"Ah, why?"

"It's so easy for you to listen to Brother Fan's class live? Not to mention us, Peking University students are also hard to get. ”

"No, it won't."

"Why don't you go to the Peking University Forum to see how it goes?"

In fact, it is.

When they learned that Chen Fan would start classes at Peking University, the entire Peking University students were boiling all at once.

The students here are not just history students.

It's not just Chinese and archaeology students.

Some others are related to history, to Chinese, and to archaeology...... Students who don't have much to do with each other also come one after another.

"I'm grass, is our mathematics department so unwelcome, only gave us 20 tickets for the entire department."

"There are 20 tickets, and we only have 30 in the law department."

"I said, our art department is even worse, there are only 10 pictures."

"Ask for a ticket to Teacher Chen Fan's class."

"While going to ......"

……

"Teacher Chen Fan, please come here."

"Teacher Chen Fan, it's your first time coming to Peking University."

"Mr. Chen Fan, let me tell you about some of the historical background of our Peking University."

For Chen Fan to come to Peking University.

A group of teachers and students from Beijing attach great importance to it.

As soon as Chen Fan got off the plane, Sun Jun came to pick him up with several professors from the Department of History.

When he arrived at Peking University, the dean of the School of Liberal Arts of Peking University also came in person.

"Sure enough, it's Peking University."

After some explanation, Chen Fan kept nodding.

Although Peking University in this world is a little different from the previous life, it is also full of legends.

A series of new cultures and new ideas were also born in this institution.

But after all, the background is a little different from the previous life.

Therefore, some of the characters, cultures, and ideas produced are not as profound as in previous lives.

But.

That's all for later.

There is a chance.

In the next few classes, Chen Fan will talk about Peking University in his previous life alone.

……

"Teacher Chen Fan, this time the class is arranged for you in the Peking University East Auditorium, and there are about 500 seats in the entire auditorium."

"So many people?"

"We don't want to. We were going to give you a slightly larger lecture theatre. However, your charm is too great. As soon as our students heard that you were coming, even if they were not majoring in this major, they all signed up one after another. You are even the idol of many lecturers in our school. ”

"I've won the award, I've won the award, I'm a storyteller."

"Teacher Chen Fan is humble."

Next.

After visiting Peking University, Sun Jun took Chen Fan to the East Auditorium of Peking University.

"We have Mr. Chen Fan invited."

A word of please.

The entire East Auditorium burst into applause.

"Hello students, it is my first time to come to Peking University, and I am a little nervous. Can any of you tell me how to pretend to come to Peking University often? In this way, after the lecture, I was like my friend bragging about it. Peking University, that's it, I take classes there every day, and there is nothing. ”

Such an opening remark made everyone laugh, and the atmosphere became much more relaxed.

"This class is still about the Qing Dynasty, and before the class, I think many students may have a series of questions. In this case, students can raise their hands, and we will answer these questions first. ”。

As soon as Chen Fan's words ended, all the students raised their hands.

One of the students asked, "Teacher Chen Fan, I want to know that the Qing court doesn't have much ability to fight back against the bullying of the great powers?" ”

Regarding this, Chen Fan said: "I said this problem before, and the Qing court was not so mediocre and incompetent. In response to the invasion of a series of countries, they also carried out a series of counterattacks. It's just that the difference in productivity levels is too great. When others have already started to hold foreign guns and cannons, you are still holding large knives. And by the time you put on the guns, they already have huge ocean-going ships. When you have a cannon, the power of someone's cannon can hit you from a distance of several kilometers. ”

This is also understood by everyone.

Why did the Qing army lose so completely.

Forthwith.

Another student asked: "Teacher Chen Fan, is the Qing Dynasty still the same as before, closed off from the country and does not follow up with the world?" ”

"That's what I'm going to talk about next."

Chen Fan nodded: "The defeat of several wars has also made the Qing court truly realize that its weapons and equipment and productivity in all aspects are out of orbit with the world. After summing up the lessons of the previous wars, the Qing court carried out the strategy of "using the skills of the emperor to control the razor". To put it simply, it is to learn the skills of other countries, and finally use them to control these countries. ”

"It should be said that such a strategy is correct and relatively positive. To this end, the ministers of the Qing court carried out a series of reforms. Zeng Guofan, an important minister of the Qing court, founded the Anqing Machinery Institute, which was the first arsenal created by the Qing court. He was followed by Li Hongzhang, who founded the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau, which mainly produced guns and explosives. Zuo Brown Tang founded the Harbour Administration Bureau to produce steamships. Zhang Zhidong founded a gun factory in Hanyang. ”

In addition, the Westernists of the Qing court also founded a number of civilian industries, such as weaving layouts, iron mining factories, and railway bureaus...... Wait a minute. This made a certain contribution to the enhancement of the Qing court's strength. Not only that, but after losing the two Yapian Wars, the Westernists also set about building a navy. Three navies were created: Beiyang, Nanyang, and Fujian. In line with this, the Westernists also founded a series of new schools and sent many students to study abroad to learn advanced Western technology. ”

This stage also gave the Qing Dynasty a period of revival.

"Finally breathed a sigh of relief."

"It seems that this Qing Dynasty is not so mediocre."

"Well, it's still a little saved."

Although the Qing Dynasty was only a dynasty founded by ethnic minorities.

But no matter how few deputies there are, he also represents China.

As a Chinese.

Who wants to see the Qing Dynasty being bullied like this.

Fortunately, it seems that the Qing court is not so mediocre, and finally began to learn advanced technology.

It's just that.

Just when a group of students and many fans who watched the live broadcast breathed a sigh of relief, Chen Fan said: "It's just a pity, although the Qing court Westernists have indeed strengthened the country's strength. However, the entire national system, as well as the number of court officials guarding against each other, coupled with the entire technical strength, still could not keep up with other countries. At the end of the 19th century, the Qing court was defeated by several foreign powers and signed several unequal treaties. ”

As soon as such a story came out.

Everyone was stunned.

Isn't it true that they've changed, they're like?

Haven't you already started learning Western technology?

Didn't you start to increase your strength with the strength of the whole country?

How can you still lose?

But when the words came to their mouths, they laughed bitterly.

But they do.

It's not that you want to change, you can change reality.

It's not that you learn Western technology, your technology can surpass them.

has been lagging behind before, and even if you are brave enough to catch up with them later, it is impossible to catch up with them all at once.

So, the question is, where is the problem? Some believe that this is because of the lack of time. Some other countries have long since developed, and the Qing Dynasty has only just developed, so you will definitely not be able to win. Others say that this is not the case. Although the Qing Dynasty started late, the Qing Dynasty had a strong foundation and a lot of money. The Westernists still spent a lot of money to buy the more advanced warships in the world at that time. But why, once the war comes, it still can't be won? Subsequently, in the midst of such debates, some people began to think about the issue of the system. ”

"Some people of insight believe that the reason for this is not the late start of the Qing Dynasty, nor anything else, but the problems of the entire national system. While the other powers had already moved towards constitutional monarchy, the Qing Dynasty was still a traditional feudal system. Under the two systems, the backward feudal system is naturally inferior to the constitutional monarchy...... So no matter how you reform and how you spend money, it won't have much effect. ”

It was precisely in recognition of this that the promising people at that time, Kang Youwei, Liang Qichao, and Tan Sitong...... and others, with the support of Emperor Guangxu at that time, initiated a change. The content of the reform is to encourage private enterprises to set up industrial and mining enterprises; opening new schools to attract talents, translating Western books and disseminating new ideas; Establish newspapers and periodicals and open up speech; training new armies and navies; The imperial examination abolished the eight-strand text, and abolished redundant yamen and useless official positions...... In fact, such a change is actually an attempt to follow a constitutional monarchy. However, such a change violated the forces of the old school. This change lasted only 103 days, and then the change failed. At that time, Emperor Guangxu, who supported the reform of the law, was directly imprisoned, and Kang Youwei, Liang Qichao and others who participated in the reform fled to other countries. However, there were still a few who did not flee, and Tan Sitong, one of the representative figures, was arrested. ”

Over here.

Chen Fan focused on Tan Sitong:

Tan Sitong was born in a family of eunuchs, so he received a relatively good education. However, the imperial court at that time was already rotten and incompetent. Tan Sitong saw his country being bullied by foreign powers again and again, and then he studied hard, bent on finding a way to save the country. To do this, he also learned a series of new ideas. During the reign of Emperor Guangxu, he changed the law with Kang Youwei and others. ”

But unfortunately, the change soon failed, and Tan Sitong was also arrested. After Tan Sitong was arrested and imprisoned, his wife cried to Tan Sitong. I'm sorry for you, we've been married for fifteen years, but we don't have a son and a half daughter. If I have the chance, I would like to have children for you. Hearing his wife's crying, Tan Hei felt the same grief from his heart. In this case, I would rather we have no children. In such a dark age, even if our children are born, they are just one more slave in this world. ”

A few days later.

Tan Sitong wrote a poem while in prison: "The Inscription Wall in Prison".

Looking at the door, he stopped thinking about Zhang Jian, and endured death and waited for Du Gen.

I smiled at the sky with my horizontal knife, and went to leave the liver and gallbladder two Kunlun.

"Stop at the gate: It means that when you are fleeing, you will go to stay with people when you see them.

"Zhang Jian" was an official in the Han Dynasty who was forced to flee because he impeached the eunuchs.

But because Zhang Jian is very famous, many people in him are not afraid of being implicated in the flight and are willing to lend a hand to help him.

"Endure death must wait for Dugan" in this is the meaning of pretending to be dead.

Du Gen is also a personal name, and he is also talking about a Han Dynasty official, because the Empress Dowager of the Han Dynasty returned to power, and the Empress Dowager wanted to kill Du Gen. But the people who did Xing admired Dugan very much, so they disguised Dugan's death. In the end, Dugand escaped.

The meaning of these two sentences actually means that Tan Sitong hoped that those like-minded friends with him, such as Kang Youwei and Liang Qichao, would be able to escape the pursuit of the Qing court while in prison. And, hopefully, they will be able to accomplish their unsuccessful business in the future.

The last sentence.

I smiled at the sky with my horizontal knife, and went to leave the liver and gallbladder two Kunlun.

That is.

Even if it was death, I would laugh with a sword.

Because whether they flee or stay, they are all people who are honest and upright, as majestic as Kunlun Mountain.

With this poem.

Tan Sitong died heroically in Xingchang, a vegetable market outside Xuanwu Gate, at the age of 33.
