What is iron, it is a sword!
What is blood, sacrifice!
A leader, a voice, and a will with iron and blood, is this not fascism?
For a moment, Zhou Shixiang even wondered if this Lauren was a time traveler like him.
This time, Zhou Shixiang’s breathing became rapid.
He looked at Lauren and the others blankly, but he was thinking about what caused these young officers in front of him to have the idea of fascism, or a prototype.
Soon, he realized that maybe, all of this was created by him. Because the Taiping Army was originally a military group dominated by the Han Chinese. Since its inception, this group has been committed to overthrowing the tyranny of the Manchu and Qing Dynasties and restoring the glory of its own nation. To this end, it will not hesitate to sacrifice. What is not nationalism?
After the Manchu and Qing Dynasty entered the customs, they used the butcher knife to force all ethnic groups including the Han Chinese to surrender. The Taiping Army also waved the butcher knife while resisting. But obviously, Zhou Shixiang was not an extreme nationalist. He never believed that blood was the only maintenance and proof of the Han nationality.
In the Taiping Army, there were a large number of non-Han generals and soldiers, such as Manchurian Suna, Mongolian Eduo, etc. In the entire army, the number of Manchu and Mongolian soldiers was no less than 10,000. In addition to the Manchurian and Mongolian officers and soldiers, there are also three wolf soldiers towns, mainly Guangxi Tongren (Zhuang), Xiangxi natives, and Miao people, with more than 20,000 people. There are also thousands of soldiers.
These non-Han officers and soldiers have been treated equally by Zhou Shixiang since they joined, and they have never been discriminated against. When in Guangxi, slogans such as “Tong and Han family”, “Tong Han family”, “Miao and Han homology” were put forward. For the local non-Han armed forces who were willing to follow the Taiping army to fight against the Qing Dynasty, Zhou Shixiang welcomed them all and ordered them. The local government regarded those ethnic minorities who voluntarily went down the mountain to accept the government’s administration as new Han Chinese, gave them the same policy treatment as the Han Chinese, encouraged them to join the army, and set up schools to educate them.
Knowing Chinese characters, reading Chinese books, speaking Chinese, celebrating Chinese festivals, wearing Chinese clothes, and changing Chinese names, as long as these six conditions are met, Zhou Shixiang will recognize them as Han people, and will change the areas under the jurisdiction of the original chieftains. Vigorously promote the concept of the descendants of Yan and Huang. The New Han people who are active in naturalization are even more rewarded, and the former chieftains who have contributed to the Taiping Army are also generously rewarded.
As long as he is willing to accept Sinicization, he is a Han, and his descendants are all Han. On the contrary, it will be severely suppressed and completely eliminated. This is Zhou Shixiang’s view of the nation.
This concept of ethnicity is very different from the previous division of the Han nationality by blood, but the effect of this move is very obvious. Specifically in the army, those who are extremely loyal and proud of the Han people from Manchu, Mongolian, Miao, Zhuang, Tu and other origins Officers and soldiers of all ethnic groups are the best evidence.
The Han nationality was originally the most outstanding nation in this era and possessed the most advanced civilization in this era. To liberate the people of all ethnic groups who were oppressed by the chieftains and absorb them into the Han nationality was the basic requirement of the Zhou Shi relative to the officials in various places. Integrate the backward with the advanced, rather than replace the advanced with the backward. Taking the Han nationality as the main body, attracting people from all over the country, and no longer distinguishing between nationalities, all are Han people from now on.
In order to integrate the forces to eliminate the Manchus, Zhou Shixiang relied on the generals of the military system, even those civilian officials were controlled by the army. The former military headquarters, the Qi Prince’s Mansion, and the current Dudu’s Mansion all replaced the previous civilian system with a highly centralized approach. The military’s will and voice seemed to be the voice of the entire Dingwu court. This is obviously militarism.
Combination of nationalism and militarism, what is not fascism?
The interests of the Taiping Army are the interests of the entire Ming Dynasty. Then, putting the army first will inevitably lead to the germination of fascism in the army.
Whether fascism is right or wrong is difficult for Zhou Shixiang to evaluate, because what he is doing now is the concrete embodiment of this doctrine.
All for our nation!
But history tells Zhou Shixiang that fascism is a vicious beast, and its appearance will turn a country upside down. So, if he lets the army continue to be haunted by the specter of the Fascist era, the beast may one day turn back on its master.
However, it is undeniable that at present, the spiritual concept of fascism is extremely inconsistent with current China, and is in line with the Han nationality, which has been hit hard.
No one can better reflect the harm of alien invasion to China than Zhou Shixiang. Therefore, if what he does is really the spirit of fascism, and his subordinates wake up the beast of fascism prematurely, Zhou Shixiang will still not change. Because the Taiping Army is now and will be the vanguard of the Han nationality for a long time to come. Everything this army works hard is for the Han nationality and for China!
To put it back ten thousand steps, any political system and any doctrine arises because there is suitable soil for its growth. Where there is demand, there will be supply.
Zhou Shixiang knew very well that at the moment he needed fascism or militarism to help him eliminate the Qing Dynasty, unify China, and then gain greater land and interests for the Han people in this world. So he will not interfere with the giant beast hidden in the hearts of these young officers, and even, in the future, he will release the giant beast.
China has never lacked heroes, and giant beasts can be released or taken back. Zhou Shixiang believed that future generations would not be stupider than himself.
All he can do is to leave behind an empire for future generations, an empire to revive the glory of the Han people.
……..
Lauren and other ten students were still kneeling in the wind and rain, but their commander left in the wind and rain.
Zhou Shixiang did not give Luo Lun any answers, although he knew that what happened at the Army University would soon spread throughout Jiangnan, the entire South, and even the whole of China. But he still did not make any move to make his subordinates happy.
Just like before, no one knew what was on their mind at the moment. The accompanying Wenwu only knew that after the commander mounted his horse, he suddenly looked back and glanced at Luoren and the others who were still kneeling in the wind and rain.
After taking back his admiring gaze, Zhou Shi said to the blind man Li beside him: “That kid is very kind, you tell Ma Yazi of the New First Army, let him keep a seat at the brigade school.”
“Hey!”
Blind Li agreed, and the commander asked to keep a seat at the travel school, which was obviously reserved for Loren. This boy seemed to have caught the eye of the handsome. Thinking of this, Blind Li couldn’t help but feel warm. Could it be that the commander really decided to become emperor, or else why would he be so envious of that kid Lauren.
“Master, then…”
Blind Li wanted to strike while the iron was hot, but others dared not ask, but he dared to ask. But as soon as he opened his mouth, Zhou Shixiang glared at him, and he couldn’t help but force the words behind him into his stomach.
“go back.”
Zhou Shixiang raised his whip, and his mount went into the wind.
……
In the governor’s mansion, the chief assistant Guo Zhiqi was already furious, because the evil deeds of the gentry mentioned in the posts that Zhou Shixiang showed him were really intolerable.
Guo Zhiqi held in his hand a report from the Si Yamen, a brief envoy of the Jianghuai Classic, saying that whenever the landlords in Suzhou went to the countryside, the tenants would offer their wives and daughters for their lustful pleasures. In some places, mainly the wives and daughters of the tenants, they called people to their homes to spoil them at will in the name of serving.
There was a landlord named Cheng Wanyou in Huaian, who owned more than 10,000 mu of fertile land and had a hundred concubines. This person is a prostitute, and there are no number of women who are defiled by him. Wang Kaichen, a large landowner of Cao County, owns thousands of acres of land, and all the female tenants he likes are ruined by him.
In addition to the landlords and gentry, some monks are also ignorant. For example, there is a temple in northern Jiangsu that is as famous as Shoushan Temple, and the monks in the temple often have many wives and concubines. The monks of Shengshou Temple in Gaoyou, Yangzhou are all looking for flowers and willows. Local slang: “Eighteen families in front of the temple and behind the temple are all monks’ families.”
The fact that the landlord ruined the tenant’s wife and daughter and the monk’s innocence was not enough to anger the Shoufu scholar. It was not only the landlords in Jiangbei, but also the gentry in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and other places that made him furious. Right of First Night”. If the tenants under their names marry wives, they must first let them sleep before the tenants can bring them home to have the same room.
Some shameless literati also said that this was asking the master to break the melon, and it was a blessing that the tenants had cultivated in their previous lives. After the master breaks the melon, they will have good luck. If they don’t break the melon for the master, they will always have bad luck.
Some tenants had to swallow their voices because they could not resist the landlords and gentry who had status, money, and right to speak, and colluded with the government. For this reason, some places have the same custom of “falling the first child” as in the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties.
“It’s a bastard! Daming has not heard of this evil for more than 200 years since the founding of the country, and today, this evil is revived!”
The more Guo Zhiqi thought about it, the more angry he became, and he re-patted it on the desk. If everyone in the local gentry were like these landlords, wouldn’t the people of Daming live in dire straits.
“What are you doing with such a big fire, Mr. Ge?”
Zhou Shixiang pushed open the door and came in, because he was in a hurry to meet Guo Zhiqi, and his wet clothes had not been changed.
“Are these true?” Guo Zhiqi asked, pointing to the pile of stickers on the table.
“I think they dare not lie to me.”
Zhou Shixiang picked up a note from the ground that had fallen off the table, “Does the pavilion feel strange that there was no such thing before, but now there is?”
“Your Highness, sit down and talk.”
Seeing that Zhou Shixiang was still wearing wet clothes, Guo Zhiqi hurriedly asked him to change to avoid getting sick. Zhou Shixiang said it was okay.
“I didn’t believe it at first, but then I had to believe it, because it’s human nature.”
“Why do you say that?”
“Have you ever heard that bad money drives out good money?”
Guo Zhiqi was startled and asked Zhou Shixiang to elaborate. Zhou Shijian put the principle of expelling bad money out of good money in a simple way, and even took copper coins as an example. Guo Zhiqi understood the truth as soon as he heard it, but what does this have to do with what those posts said.
Zhou Shixiang shook his head and said: “The good people are dead, and the bad people are in power. Since Jiashen, whether in the north or in the south, the real wise gentlemen, those who cherish the family and the world, have a conscience and don’t do anything nonsense, mostly die against the Qing Dynasty. For the remaining people, does Mr. Ge say that they are good people or bad people?”
Guo Zhiqi said with disapproval, “I can’t knock a boat over with one shot.”
Zhou Shixiang nodded and said: “Elder Ge is right, the rest of the people are not all bad people, but there are more bad people among these people. My imperial power does not go to the countryside, only to the magistrate level, the villages are all over the place. It is governed by these landlords and gentry. The world is peaceful, the state law is strict, and when the government is not broken, even if there are vicious gentry and tyrants, they will never dare to act like this. But once the world collapses, the patriarch thinks that these are not only arrogant, but also Will the evil gentry without conscience do good things?”
After finishing speaking, Zhou Shixiang threw the sticker in his hand on the table, and continued: “North Jiangsu is also a place with a strong literary style, so people like Cheng Wanyou and Wang Kaichen would never appear, but the fact is that such people are now The majority. I have heard that if the local tenant asks for a wife, it would be absurd to not send his wife to the landowner’s bed on the first night of the wedding. It will even be accused of immorality. Let me ask Mr. Ge, this kind of thing. How can things become immoral? How can a **** woman be born a moral thing? I am afraid that this is not the way the sage teaches the world.”
“This…”
Guo Zhiqi only felt that the fire in his heart had nowhere to vent, how could these gentlemen be so brazen!
“There is a landlord surnamed Zhang in Zhejiang, who was a Juren during the Chongzhen period. Because he secretly reported the whereabouts of Cang Shui Gong to the Qing army, he was arrested by my soldiers and locked in the local ancestral hall. Because there are still scattered soldiers from the Qing army nearby. , so the soldiers asked the tenant surnamed Zhang Zhang to come and **** him, and they went to suppress the Qing army skirmishers. No, the tenant killed Zhang Zhang with a stick at night. Later, the interrogation found out that the tenant The landlord slept with the landlord the night before he got married, and later gave birth to a baby boy. He fell to his death because he felt that he didn’t look like it. As a result, the landlord took the tenant’s son and beat him to death. You Say, is it bad or not?”
“Damn!”
Guo Zhiqi was really annoyed.
Zhou Shixiang also sighed, then picked up another copy, and said, “This post says that Chen, a tenant of Shan’s family in Wujin, Changzhou, had to take a daughter-in-law with him because his son was old, and he had no money to discuss it with Shan. Elder Ge knows, what did this Dan say?”
“How to say? Nine out of thirteen can’t come back?”
Guo Zhiqi subconsciously thought that this Shan must take the opportunity to put high-yield goods, because this is the only way for landlords to make money. But Zhou Shixiang shook his head and said, “If that’s the case, it’s not shameless. That Shan Mou told Chen Mou, let him not worry, he would definitely help with the marriage, but this new daughter-in-law brought in the house the first night. But let him go. Shan made it clear that if Chen agreed to this, then the Chen family would make a lot of money, because Chen just didn’t agree, as long as he asked for his daughter-in-law, Chen dared not give it?”
“What’s the point of this?!”
Guo Zhiqi was also extremely angry and laughed instead, this Shan is really shameless, why should he ask for a daughter-in-law, and they will give it!
“The reason is as simple as that~www.readwn.com~ Because this individual is a landlord and gentry. To the tenants, they are officials and gods. Who dares not obey!”
Zhou Shixiang sneered, “Speaking of which, Shan is still good, and he is always willing to lend money to tenants to ask for wives. Compared with Song Juren in Anqing, he is a great kind person.”
“Listening to His Highness’s tone, this Song Juren is afraid that he is a wicked person.”
“This Song Juren can no longer be described as a big traitor. His tenant Wang married his wife, and Song broke into Wang’s house that night and abused his wife. The Queen Mother discouraged him and ordered his family to strangle to death. This Song Juren The wives in the family hired workers, old, ugly, handsome, and even those with scars and pockmarks on their faces, all of them were abused by him, and they were called ‘taste new’.”
“There really are such lawless people!”
“Everything I said is true, and all the posts here are true. If Elder Ge doesn’t believe it, he can ask someone to investigate. In addition to those who do evil, there are also people who collude with the Qing Dynasty and betray my anti-Qing righteous people. .”
“Why didn’t these things happen before?”
