Chapter 630: Are the Han Chinese not warlike? How strong is the Chinese nation's desire for rev

And then a new sky appeared.

[What is the Chinese heritage of revenge culture? ]

[How strong is the martial virtue of the Han people? ]

[Are we the Chinese nation a warlike nation? ]

[It’s hard to say.]

[But what if we were to name the nation that bears grudges the most? ]

【Then we Chinese have something to say. 】

[Do you know Zhu Di, the Emperor Chengzu of Ming Dynasty? He was the Emperor Chengzu of Ming Dynasty who met Emperor Yongle with Zhu Chongba, a commoner.]

Outside the sky.

tomorrow.

Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Di and his son, who were originally admiring the sky curtain together, were stunned.

Zhu Di saw that Zhu Yuanzhang's face darkened.

I was secretly complaining in my heart,

This Tianmu is really talking about something that is not related to the topic.

I was almost beaten to death by my father before.
Fortunately, the father and son reconciled later and everyone decided not to talk about it.

Wait until my elder brother recovers, and then I will be a prince obediently.

But now Tianmu brought up this matter again specifically.

What about the common man Zhu Yuanzhang paying homage to Emperor Yongle?

Isn't this going to kill yourself?
What if your father suddenly gets upset and decides to kill you?

Zhu Di was thinking wildly.

My heart is pounding!

Fortunately, Zhu Yuanzhang's mentality was still good.

Although he felt a little unhappy, he just snorted coldly, then glared at Zhu Di and didn't say much.

The sky continues.

【Zhu Di wanted to march north to attack Mongolia, but he had no reason to go to war.】

【So Zhu Di began to look through history books, and he kept looking through them until he came across the record of the Siege of Baideng.】

[The Huns surrounded Emperor Gaozu of Han, Liu Bang, and almost killed him.]

[Okay, so Zhu Di found an excuse and announced: Almost 2000 years ago, you Xiongnu people were disrespectful to the emperor of China, so now, nearly 2000 years later, the current emperor of China will take revenge on the Mongols who inherited the Xiongnu’s territory.]

[Good fellow, this time the revenge went all the way back to the early Han Dynasty! ]

[The Mongolians must have been confused after hearing this! ]

[No, buddy, what relationship do you have with Liu Bang, the first emperor of the Han Dynasty? And we Mongols and the Huns are not the same group. ]

Outside the sky.

Han Dynasty.

Liu Bang was also stunned when he saw this.

"Ah, not the emperor friend named Zhu Di in later generations."

"Are you looking for excuses a little too far?"

"I am in Han and you are in Ming. Why are you avenging me?"

"Who would believe this if I told them?"

But Liu Bang thought about the text in the history books again.

"Gong Yangzi once asked Confucius: Can a vengeance of nine generations be avenged?"

"Confucius replied: If we restore the kingly way to the old ways, honor the king and repel the barbarians, we can still avenge a hundred generations of hatred."

"Remember that later generations believed in Confucianism."

"Perhaps this Zhu Di believed in the wisdom of Confucius?"

Canopy.

【Since ancient times, the Chinese nation has been struggling to switch back and forth between the two mentalities of "endure it" and "fuck it". 】

[Why do we, a nation of etiquette and seemingly not aggressive, have such a large territory since ancient times? ] [The Chinese nation's persistence and admiration for great unity is unmatched by any other nation in the world. ]

【Europe, which is about the same size as China, has more than 40 countries.】

【Both Napoleon and Hitler tried to unify Europe.】

[Most Europeans were unwilling to do so.]

【Our ancestors will not blame us for not being able to learn English well. 】

【I just feel that I didn’t unify the world back then. 】

[A netizen asked: Why do the barbarians in the surrounding areas always like to live in mountains, deserts, Gobi, and plateaus when I read history books?]

【Isn't it good to live in the rich and fertile Central Plains? 】

[Let me put it this way: China has two long-standing systems, one is the military farming system, and the other is the beheading system. 】

[So in ancient times, you could see honest farmers who worked the land, during the slack season, bringing a group of fellow villagers, pushing a cart full of heads to claim military merit.]

[After receiving the reward, I went home and continued to do farm work. ]

[Later, when wars were fought everywhere, there were too many heads to carry, so they changed to cutting off ears.]

【However, the severed heads could not be wasted, so a Jingguan was built on the spot. 】

[Even in ancient literary works, ancient literati always complained that the barbarians could never be killed off, and that they kept coming back in waves.]

【But think about it from a different perspective. 】

[From the perspective of the barbarians, it was like: Damn it, why do you Han people’s borders keep getting into my home? ]

[The iconic defense facility in ancient Europe is a solid castle. ]

[Hide in the castle, and let the enemy plunder the villages and farmlands outside. As long as you defend the core castle, you will be successful. When the enemy can no longer besiege the castle, they will naturally retreat, and the vast land around it can be recovered. ]

【The iconic defense facility of ancient China is the Great Wall. 】

[The Great Wall was built right at the doorstep of people’s homes, locking them in a barren desert.]

[As long as people cross the Great Wall, they will cry out to the heavens and the earth that the military is in disrepair, the sky is falling, the barbarians are invading, and the country will no longer exist.]

[But to say that the Chinese people are warlike is not entirely true. ]

[Take us now for example. If China's national strength were in ancient times, it would have expanded outwards long ago. ]

[When Master Xuanzang went to the West to seek Buddhist scriptures, he passed through more than 100 countries, but when he returned, he found that more than half of them were gone. ]

[It took me 18 years to go abroad, but only 18 days to return home. ]

[If Master Xuanzang had walked a little slower, he would have been caught up by the Tang Dynasty’s border.]

[Loulan State killed an arrogant Han envoy, and logically apologized, but the country was also destroyed. ]

[But even so, Loulan was still criticized countless times in the poems and songs of ancient literati. ]

……

While the sky screen is playing, the barrage is also resonating.

"Mongols - We have no relatives with the Huns! Temujin is a descendant of Emperor Gaozu!"

《Let’s learn about Gongyang School.》

"Kong Lao Er, who is always scolded by everyone, once said to repay grievances with justice."

"If there is no war, where would the 960 million square kilometers of land come from? All other ancient civilizations are gone, so how could China be passed down to this day?"

"When I first learned as a child that our country's territory is not the largest in the world, I felt like the sky was falling. "

"This is so strange, why do barbarians keep appearing on the border and I can never defeat them all?"

《New barbarians will always appear randomly on the border.》

"Barbarians: Ah, yes, yes, living in the desert plateau, Gobi and deep mountains is a waste of space!"

"Jingguan: A type of traditional Han architecture."

"Book of Han: Everyone wants to avenge their personal grudges."

"If you, as a local lord, do not think about unification, but only want to secede, then your subordinates will oppose you, sell you out, and after selling you out, they will say that you are a weak lord."

"Sun Quan: Don't Q."

"Liu Zhang: Just give me your ID card." (End of this chapter)
