open sea

Chapter 1484
In Muye, Li Zhi calmly entered the tribe of Haifasha, a longhouse alliance, to observe the life attitude and cultural integration of the indigenous people in Muye.

Armed merchant ships belonging to Hexing Sheng on the ocean once again sent thousands of soldiers to England.

In other words, it was Yilan Island.

Generally speaking, things like naming and discrimination are like a mirror, which often reflects one's own preferences and heart.

Ailan and Yilan are collectively referred to as the Aiyi Islands. This name is not found in any official documents of the Eastern Military Government, but it is in people's hearts and passed on by word of mouth.

This name originally came from the military men recruited by Ming Dynasty from southern Korea and eastern Japan for overseas expeditions. Their education level was low and they didn't know many words, so they couldn't point out the correct name, let alone say it.

Although the words are similar, the pronunciation of the same sentence is different, even if the pronunciation is the same, the word order is also different.

Chinese is subject-verb-object: I eat.

The language of North Korea and Japan is the predicate: I eat.

What's more, in the past of the two countries, it was almost the same as Europe in this era. Only the aristocratic class could learn Chinese, and the common people had no chance to learn even their own countries.

For the surrounding countries, the strong and powerful Chinese language is a double-edged sword. On the one hand, it can learn the culture and technology of the Central Plains, and on the other hand, it also largely hinders the communication between the upper and lower classes of their own countries.

For example, in North Korea, speaking and writing are different. This is so uncomfortable.

If the common people can talk to the nobles, the nobles will open their mouths: "Do you eat Smecta?"

"I eat Smecta!"

The communication is relatively smooth, but the common people don't have much chance to meet the nobles. To study, they have to read books and read characters. A sentence that says "I eat Smecta" is written as "I eat".

It is very inconvenient to understand, which naturally increases the difficulty of learning.

King Sejong, the fourth generation of the Joseon Dynasty of the Lee family, had already realized the inconvenience that the Chinese language brought to communication. He set up a Hangeul Bureau to recruit scholars, dismantled the Chinese characters and compared them with the Korean phonetics to create characters.

But this thing is useless, because that would not be the time when the ancestors sang the Book of Songs, it was already the time of Ming Yingzong Zhu Qizhen, and the development of Chinese characters was extremely mature, and it was not easy to go there at all.

The truly successful movement to remove Chinese characters was South Korea after World War II. It was clean and thorough, and it also caused an irreparable problem. Korean youth could not consult their own historical materials.

Because he didn't learn Chinese, he couldn't understand what people wrote in the past.

So even if they know what the Ming people call a place, they can only learn the pronunciation, but they don't know which word it is.

When they went overseas, they were random, but many people lived in Dongyang, and because they were the first batch of people who joined the Chinese Literature Academy, they got mixed up with public positions such as teachers.

Speaking of it, maybe the characters in this world don't have such feelings, but the world has returned to its original appearance, like the regional awareness of 300 years ago.

There is no such country or that country, there is only one imperial court, which is located in Beijing, and after Changbai Mountain, it is called the ground of Gaoli.

So it's normal for them to give others these names, like the Aiyi Islands, and directly despise the people of the two big islands.

They feel that this place is far, too far away from Daming, much farther than the ground where they were born, and they should despise it.

On the contrary, Daming people generally do not have such emotions. This is not because Daming people are good, but because they simply despise everyone, so that they can treat everyone equally.

It is like saying that a person owns 20 mu of land, which is called land annexation; if this person owns 700 million hectares of land, it can only be called land ownership.

For example, the Eastern Military Mansion owns 140 million hectares of land in Asia, realizing the state ownership of the land, distributing it to immigrants and not allowing it to be bought or sold.

But for Tang Xianzu, an official in England and the prefect of London, there was nothing to despise.

In the London Hall, the war in the North was not yet over, and the generals in the army agreed that it would be difficult to end.

Queen Elizabeth was escorted onto the ship, and the old Tudor royal family instigated the aristocrats to colonize Ireland, vilify Puzhou, and the Ming army all became evidence of her being a war criminal.

But the end of Tudor rule does not mean lasting peace for the land.

Drake's rebels are still powerful, although they were defeated by Ying Ming's leader for attacking Fucheng not long ago, and they were labeled as pirates from the rebels, but news of their landing in Scotland and a comeback soon came from the north again.

And in the vast mountains from Puzhou to London House, London House to Scotland, thieves flocked.

The old aristocratic local governance system was completely overthrown, but the new bureaucratic system failed to completely cover it, and the missing space for governance was quickly occupied by the fleeing old aristocrats and rebel troops.

Liu Ruguo, who pulled the flag all the way from the Kingdom of Alan to England, was also powerless. The elite banner army and a large number of herd soldiers belonging to the Eastern Army were exhausted.

Such a situation almost drove Puzhou general Yingming crazy, and his personal soldier Wei Jinzhong took the lead to share the worries and offered two internal and external strategies.

Wei Jinzhong believes that in such a situation, the Ming army should follow England's traditional style of dealing with Ireland and massacre the rebel supporters of the old Tudor royal family. From the villages in the suburbs to the towns in the center, all those who participated in the rebellion, regardless of gender, age or age, should be killed. , Solve the potential soldiers who repeatedly rebelled from the root cause.

Internally, Spain used the means of Spain in the New World to carry out tough and high-pressure management, and continued to kill men and leave women, and it took three generations to solve this problem.

Although every Eastern Banner Army has been educated in the same sympathy for Asian aborigines, there is always a limit to what human beings can do when they are pampered.

The lower limit will only be shown when you are struggling and suffering, especially this kind of sympathy education will turn into revenge thoughts from a different angle to a certain extent.

The starting point of the sympathetic education of the Eastern Military Government is that we are Huaxia and they are the tribes. If they appeared in the Shang and Zhou dynasties, everyone would be sworn enemies; We are weak and need protection.

This caused the Eastern Army Banner Army to have a protective attitude towards the aborigines, but they would have a more revenge mentality towards the Europeans.

It is not surprising that Wei Jinzhong proposes this cruel plan, and it is not even surprising that Ying Ming approves of this plan.

Fortunately, there is still Tang Xianzu in London Mansion.

Tang Xianzu did not oppose the cruelty of this plan. They lived together in this cruel era, and people did everything possible to avoid wars, because too many lessons learned from wars were recorded in ancient history books.

But when war breaks out, they also know better how much cruelty can happen in war, and what the enemy will do to them after defeat.

Therefore, not to lose is everyone's work together.

Tang Xianzu objected because it was low-handed—the means that the Spaniards used to the aborigines of the New World were too low-handed.

Even if they rule a piece of land, perhaps there will inevitably be the advantage of Ming men in marriage, and perhaps the result is no different from implementing such a plan.

However, Tang Xianzu, as the chief official in London, believed that there was a world of difference in whether the frontier officials and frontier military officers consciously promoted, encouraged, or even planned to implement such political actions.

"General, please temporarily put out your anger. Tang has a solution."
