I, Zhu Houzhao, join the US imperialist chat group

Chapter 174 Zhu Houzhao: Has our Ming Dynasty become two Song dynasties? Roosevelt: I became president at 42
"The people who took over our country, the Ming Dynasty, are foreigners!"

"No...it's impossible!"

"I can't accept this!"

"Taizu finally drove out the Tartars and restored China! He finally drove the Mongols out of China!"

"How could it be taken away by them again?"

"We... still compare ourselves to the Han and Tang Dynasties, but in the end we have followed in the footsteps of the two Song dynasties."

"What happened behind me, Daming?"

"It took three hundred years for the Wuhu to disrupt China, and nearly four hundred years from the end of the Tang Dynasty to the end of the Yuan Dynasty. China's artifacts have only been in the hands of us Han people for more than two hundred years, and then they fell into the hands of foreigners again?"

Zhu Houzhao really couldn't accept that Ming Dynasty would have such an ending.

This blow was even greater than when he knew that the Ming Dynasty had died.

The rise, fall, and replacement of dynasties is a natural law.

He finally accepted this.

However, due to the decline of the dynasty, the artifacts of the country fell into the hands of foreigners. No Han family can shoulder this huge historical responsibility!
Little did they know how much the Sima family of the Jin Dynasty was scolded, and scholars did not even bother to mention the emperors of the Jin Dynasty.

In the two Song Dynasties, the Zhao family was scolded as a kind of soft-hearted royal family.

Anyway, the Ming Emperor looked down upon the Zhao family of the Song Dynasty, let alone the Sima family of the Jin Dynasty.

Now that we have this result, isn’t it!
From the beginning with a bowl, to the punches and kicks, everything Zhu Yuanzhang did, the most righteous ancestor of the country, was defeated by the descendants of the Zhu family!
If people later mention the Ming Dynasty, I am afraid that only Taizu and Taizong can say good things about it. The other emperors are all prodigal and useless emperors, the same as the Sima family of the Jin Dynasty and the Zhao family of the Song Dynasty. goods.

This will be a stain on their entire Zhu family, and they cannot be washed away no matter how hard they try.

Think about it for a moment, how much suffering the Han people suffered in the Five Husties, and how humble the Han people were under the rule of Yuan and Meng.

It can be directly inferred what kind of suffering the Han people will suffer if the Ming Dynasty is taken away by foreigners. Those descendants of the Han people who have suffered will viciously insult the Zhu family!
This historical responsibility and historical mistakes were slammed down.

Zhu Houzhao found that he couldn't bear it anymore, and the invisible pressure just came down.

But what he is sure of is...the decline of the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty was finally stolen and ravaged by Aisin Gioro's Qing Empire, allowing them to oppress the Han people again. This responsibility, aside from Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di, all subsequent emperors must be ruthless. bear such a part of the responsibility.

Especially now, being in Xiaoling Mausoleum.

Zhu Houzhao felt an unprecedented sense of shame welling up in his heart. How could he, a descendant of the Zhu family, deserve to be...

"No!... This responsibility must be borne by our Emperor Ming."

"So...the ancestors may have known about this situation!"

"That's why I was given this chat group that can lead directly to the future."

"They... want me to have the courage to take on this responsibility, not only to make the Ming Dynasty never set, but also to make me... never let the Chinese artifact fall into the hands of foreigners! This, this is the ancestors Liezong gave our Zhu family compensation..."

But... soon, Zhu Houzhao also suddenly adjusted.

It seemed that at this moment, he understood more clearly the purpose of this chat group given to him by his ancestors.

That is to let him completely change the outcome of their Ming Dynasty and shoulder the responsibility of their Ming Dynasty to prevent the Han people from suffering.

This point actually coincides with his trumpet Tang Xizong Li Xuan.

After the Tang Dynasty, there were also many years of chaos, especially when the Tang Dynasty favored foreigners, which almost led to a more serious chaos than the Five Husbands' chaos in China.

In a sense, Li Xuan's responsibility is also equivalent to his responsibility to prevent foreigners from occupying Chinese artifacts again.

Therefore, he happened to use the trumpet this time to discuss how Chinese artifacts could not be occupied by foreigners.

When he came to his senses, Zhu Houzhao discovered.

The group chat had already progressed a lot without waiting for him.

[American Yingzong Cleveland: So...His Majesty the Tang Dynasty, do you understand? I think the topic Roosevelt mentioned should be very clear. You in the East were at the forefront of the world in the 18th century, which was about eight hundred years after you. But since changing to another family, it has declined. Although there are internal reasons, there are also more external reasons. In short, the world is developing. Although the West once lagged behind, it is we in the West who now dominate the world. 】

[This group... is probably those of us who come after us. We can provide you with some perspective and information from the perspective of those who come after us. It is equivalent to the Emperor of the East after you, except that this group is our American chat group, more Western. Although...some of our descriptions and perceptions are different from yours, and they are not very accurate, but the general idea is that this is it. 】

[In addition...President Washington, President Jackson, now you probably understand the general development situation between the East and the West. 】

Clearly mindful of his duties, Cleveland continued to moderate the conversation.

Obviously, he could do without Zhu Houzhao's guidance.

[American Taizu Washington: After hearing what Roosevelt said, I probably understand. In short, Eastern civilization has surpassed our Western civilization for a long time. But since the Renaissance, we have gradually caught up with and surpassed Eastern civilization, right? 】

[Meixuanzong Jackson: I understand too. But... what I am more curious about is... it seems that our American president is becoming more and more demanding. Cleveland, Roosevelt, and even Grant, have you begun to have the ability to intervene in foreign affairs and have a global perspective? We...seem to just focus on American affairs. 】

Only then did Jackson notice something. Fortunately, Cleveland had specifically looked for information about Yu Wenyun before.

But then Roosevelt came in, and he almost had the same understanding.

In addition, Grant is now in China, which makes him feel that there is an invisible gap between them and the president behind them.

Although he was also influenced by the Monroe Doctrine, he believed that America was America's back garden and that other European countries should not interfere.

But... that is because the United States is too weak, making a statement first like a hedgehog, using its thorns to protect American interests in the Americas from interference by European powers.

[American Yingzong Cleveland: President Jackson really has a unique perspective. It seems that the next topic is here. Roosevelt, in your next report, I think it is necessary to tell the presidents in Washington about the next development direction of our United States. Because the Qing Empire had not opened its eyes to see the world before, it always thought that they were a world power. 】

[And we... are obviously catching up and gradually becoming a global power. President Washington and others, because of historical limitations, even thought that we were a small country, and they looked down on the road. 】

Jackson's question successfully made Cleveland think that the United States during the time of Washington and Jackson was not just looking at the sky from a well in another sense.

[Meili Zong Grant: We have become a big country and gradually developed into a global power? Although there is this direction, we still need to work hard. We are still far behind the European powers. 】

Grant was a little surprised. When he was around 1879, the United States was still a third-rate country in the world.

They are still digesting the results of the Civil War and rebuilding the United States.

[Mercy Lincoln: Although Cleveland has said before that we have become so powerful that even the sun cannot easily destroy us, but... we are still far from being a world power. Besides, Roosevelt seems to have You're only ten years away from Cleveland. You have mentioned so many problems before, have they been solved... I am afraid that we are still far behind the world's major powers. 】

[Louis XVI: A world power? You America? Cleveland, stop talking nonsense. 】

Louis XVI also seemed to have healed his scars and forgot about the pain, and the topic bubbled up again.

[American Yingzong Cleveland: Roosevelt, you saw it. It’s not just the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty... In fact, His Majesty Louis XVI and President Washington also don’t understand our position. You obviously want to focus on the influence of the United States in the world again. It seems that you want to focus on diplomacy. 】

[Mercy Roosevelt: President Cleveland, can we move on to the next topic? His Majesty the Tang Dynasty seems to have given no feedback for a while. I wonder if my topic is too profound. Can he understand it? Is my mission completed? 】

Roosevelt paused briefly, not daring to dominate the scene like Cleveland did, but still keeping his mission in mind.

[American Yingzong Cleveland: Haha, Roosevelt, you have to get used to it. Maybe... His Majesty the Tang Dynasty was hit hard and needs to digest it well. They Chinese people always have an inexplicable sense of responsibility. Besides, not everyone is as optimistic and open-minded as His Majesty Louis XVI. 】

Is this guy going out of his way to accuse himself of not being as good as Louis XVI?
When Zhu Houzhao saw this, he was speechless for a moment.

[Li Xuan, Emperor Xizong of the Tang Dynasty: I understand! Is there anything I can’t understand! I just don’t want to accept that we have been occupied by a foreign nation! You have no idea how I feel! 】

Zhu Houzhao was unhappy.

[Supreme Group Leader: It seems that this new member also understands our topic. Roosevelt, I’ll give you five points for completing your mission. Now...for the second phase of chatting, you newcomers have understood the situation of our group, and let us get to know you well. You can talk about the difficulties and situations we are facing. Cleveland, you continue to host. 】

Zhu Houzhao vented a bit, then quickly put away his emotions and continued to bring the chat topic back to the normal rhythm he wanted.

[American Yingzong Cleveland: Okay, group leader! Roosevelt, look, you've accomplished your mission. It seems that the Emperor of Tang Dynasty is also smarter, so we don't need to waste our time. 】【So, following the instructions of the group leader, I think next, let Roosevelt introduce himself first, then President Grant introduce himself, then His Majesty the Tang Dynasty can take a moment, and finally introduce himself? 】

Cleveland decisively took over and continued to host, and the order was suddenly decided.

[Merceron Roosevelt: Introduce yourself? How would you introduce yourself... Can you tell me about our situation and positioning in the United States? 】

Roosevelt was hesitant. He was still testing how to develop this new rhythm.

[Meili Zong Grant: I think... I don’t need to introduce myself. Cleveland, aren’t you the president behind me? You already know my situation. 】

Grant felt it was unnecessary.

[Li Xuan, Emperor Xizong of the Tang Dynasty: I really want to slow down and take a look at your situation first. 】

The tuba quit again, and the trumpet continued to cooperate with Cleveland.

Zhu Houzhao also wanted to get to know this newcomer Roosevelt well and why he could be called Shizong.

[American Yingzong Cleveland: That’s okay! President Grant's introduction, I'll be with you in a moment. As for Roosevelt...how should I introduce myself? 】

[Introduce yourself, just as you would to voters, tell President Washington and others who you are and how you became president. Although I know you better, they are still people from a hundred years ago, so they definitely don’t know you. I don’t know how you became president. You have to share this necessary information with everyone in the group. Now that the introduction is complete, just add a brief introduction to our situation in the United States. 】

[The specific beginning is, you can talk about which president you are...and what you have done. That's about it. 】

Cleveland obviously knows how to set the pace.

[Merceron Roosevelt: Is that so? Then you should really introduce yourself to President Washington and the others. No, President Cleveland, you should also remind me to add. 】

[American Yingzong Cleveland: Okay, let’s get started, I will. 】

Roosevelt took a deep breath. In the office, the security personnel had already inspected his office.

As expected, no unusual findings were found.

He couldn't help but take off his boxing gloves and baseball bat. After this round of chatting, he... had gradually accepted this magical chat group, and felt that the people in it were more in line with historical facts for the time being.

As for the people in the group wanting to know his information... it doesn't seem to be a big deal. Currently, America and the whole world know some of his public information, so it doesn't seem to be a big deal if he talks about it in the group.

[Merceron Roosevelt: Well, let me tell you something first. I am the 26th President of the United States. I was born in New York State to an ordinary businessman family. 】

[American Yingzong Cleveland: Wait! Roosevelt, you are dishonest... Are your Roosevelt family an ordinary business family? Don’t hide this! I'm going to interrupt. 】

What Roosevelt said immediately made Cleveland stop.

The Roosevelt family is an ordinary family, and the Cleveland family is simply inferior to horses.

[American Yingzong Cleveland: President Washington, dear presidents, I want to say that the Roosevelt family is a well-known business family in the United States. Around 1630, before the founding of our country, their ancestors came here. A famous person in their family is Isaac Roosevelt, who was the same generation as President Washington and made contributions in the Revolutionary War. Then it slowly developed... Also, two of his uncles served in the Union Navy during the Civil War. 】

Obviously, the Roosevelt family was the first group of people to enter the country with the Mayflower, and they pretended to be an ordinary family.

[American Taizu Washington: Isaac Roosevelt, I seem to have some impression, a wealthy businessman in New York State? But...Cleveland, do you have any other purpose in saying this? 】

Washington didn't find it surprising.

[Merceron Roosevelt: Um...President Cleveland, why do you want to emphasize this? 】

Roosevelt also felt strange.

[American Yingzong Cleveland: Nothing, I just remind you to be honest, go ahead. 】

Cleveland naturally would not say that the national power of the United States is controlled by these political and business families. Their grassroots counterattacks are in the minority after all, but he did not say this, which is not conducive to unity.

[Merceron Roosevelt: Really? Well, let me try to be honest. Next, President Cleveland, when did you start talking about it? Do you want to also talk about my growth? 】

Roosevelt was on guard.

[American Yingzong Cleveland: Without going into too much detail, just tell me roughly what you did as a teenager and young man, and how you got on the road to politics. 】

[Merceron Roosevelt: Well...my boyhood was nothing special. Because I suffer from asthma and have been frail since childhood, my father took me to physical training and learn boxing. I spent my teenage years studying. At the age of 18, I entered Harvard University and then Columbia University Law School four years later. After graduation, I entered the New York State House of Commons and started working in politics at the age of 23. 】

[American Yingzong Cleveland: Don’t look at what Roosevelt said. Here I will add a little knowledge. Roosevelt was actually very good when he was young. The first book he published at Columbia University, "Naval War in the War of 1812," became a required course at the U.S. Naval Academy. He was only 22 years old at the time! 】

[Meixuanzong Jackson: 22 years old, a required course at the Naval Academy! When you were young, did you study our American naval battles? Seems like he has some military talent? 】

This time, Jackson was a little surprised.

[Mercerson Roosevelt: President Jackson, I dare not say this in front of you. I am just young and bold, and I have some luck. 】

Roosevelt was flattered.

[Meixuanzong Jackson: No need to be modest. Go on, I won't interrupt. 】

Jackson decisively did not interrupt.

Zhu Houzhao was also curious about the naval battle... Do the presidents of the United States have more or less war experience?

[Merceron Roosevelt: Well, let me continue... I entered politics and joined the Republican Party, but politics was a bit boring. In short, I also ran for mayor of New York City, but failed... Later, I concentrated on helping Benjamin ·The election of President Harrison... trying to use the power of the president to move to a higher level... Unfortunately, President Benjamin Harrison was defeated by President Cleveland... But President Cleveland ignored the past and still kept me in office. 】

[Under the promotion of President Cleveland, I served as the New York City Police Commissioner, and some of my bold activities also received strong support from President Cleveland. 】

[After President Cleveland's term ended, President William McKinley appointed me Deputy Secretary of the Navy...]

[American Yingzong Cleveland: Sure enough, after me, the Republican Party took office again, President Lincoln. You see, what I said before was right. This William McKinley is a member of your Republican Party. 】

[Mercy Lincoln: No comment. But...I found out, Roosevelt, you seem to be very capable...all the three presidents trust you? There's something incredible about this. 】

A veteran of three dynasties, this Roosevelt... is amazing!

Lincoln didn't say it, and Zhu Houzhao didn't even notice this. Only then did he realize that Roosevelt was not simple.

[American Yingzong Cleveland: Putting aside Roosevelt's family, I admire Roosevelt's personal abilities very much. He is a practical person, and he is even more outstanding than President Lincoln can imagine. Let me think about it, if my term ends...McKinley takes office and you become Under Secretary of the Navy...how old will you be? 39 years old! Amazing! Calculating this again, McKinley's two terms are over...you will be the next president. Are you able to serve as president when you are not even fifty years old? 】

It wasn't that he didn't know, but he was shocked. Cleveland quickly calculated that Roosevelt would be president at a young age that might be scary.

[Mercedon Roosevelt: Well...President Cleveland, to be exact. I also didn’t expect that I would inadvertently become the youngest president currently. And...you're wrong, President McKinley, he wasn't re-elected as president either. He was assassinated in the fourth year of his presidential term. As Vice President, I became the 26th President. I was only 42 years old. 】

Roosevelt decisively and reluctantly told the story of how he reluctantly became president, a life of cheating that requires no explanation.

[American Yingzong Cleveland: Wait...McKinley has also been assassinated! ? 】

[Mercy Lincoln: Huh? Another president assassinated in office? 】

[American Taizu Washington: God, how could our President of the United States be assassinated so easily? 】

[Meixuanzong Jackson: Did this McKinley offend anyone again? 】

[Meili Zong Grant: No way? Has any president been assassinated besides President Lincoln? Why, is there another civil war in the United States? 】

However, what he revealed in Versailles did not attract people's attention. Instead, he inadvertently revealed another assassinated McKinley, which shocked and numbed the president in the group.

[Merezu Louis XVI: Tsk tsk, you are still talking about me... See for yourselves how many of your American presidents have died unexpectedly. How long has it been since then? You American people are really honest and simple, and you are really free and democratic. 】

Louis XVI gloated.

[Li Xuan, Emperor Xizong of the Tang Dynasty: I also feel a little unbelievable... What do you think? Could it be that your American Emperor...has no authority and is so easy to be assassinated? If America continues like this...who would dare to be president? 】

Zhu Houzhao was also surprised. He had no idea that the presidents of the United States would be assassinated one after another. Did he really open his eyes and not learn a lesson?
