Chapter 759: Advice from an Outsider

Lu Zhe's attitude towards the inherent Chinese ethnic groups and foreign races is very polarized, if he will deliberately tolerate some things to reduce the killing as much as possible when dealing with the Chinese ethnic groups, then he is full of all kinds of iron and fire blood in his treatment of foreign races.

In the contemporary era when the concept of nationality is not prevalent, not many people understand Lu Zhe's approach, and at the beginning, they did not know how to distinguish what Lu Zhe's division of nationalities was based on, or later they could see a clue from Lu Zhe's series of actions.

Obviously, the ethnic group in Lu Zhe's eyes is the mainstream national ethnic group since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, that is to say, the people who were once under the rule of the Zhou royal family are an ethnic group, and most of the other ethnic groups that do not belong to the Zhou royal vassals are planned to go to other races. In addition, there is an important means of distinction, the ethnic groups that identify with the mainstream culture are also the same ethnic group in Lu Zhe's view, and the ethnic groups that do not identify with a culture will be planned to be transferred to the other race even if there is no difference in facial features and skin.

At present, the Han army's purge of the Baiyue in the south has not stopped, and the search, search, and killing in the southern land have continued for seven years, and there is a tendency to find out any Baiyue people, and there is a clear difference after finding, women determine their fate according to their age, and those who meet the reproductive age can be assigned to the soldiers as female concubines, or they can be escorted to the rear for sale; The fate of the Baiyue men is much more cruel, and those who are willing to surrender to serve the Han army and go to attack the extreme south (in fact, it is the part of Burma) can survive and refuse to be killed on the spot.

The expansion of the Han army in the south was bloody and iron-blooded, revealing an extreme cruelty, like the simplest of the law of the jungle, in some terms, nationalism rampant.

Subsequently, the Han army went out of the fortress to fight in the grasslands, and the methods shown were no different from those in the south, and in the expansion, they still carried out the policy of killing and enslaving non-our races. Everywhere the Han army passed, it always brought death and plunder, and the brutality and murder that could be displayed were chilling.

It is precisely because of the cruelty and cruelty of the Han army's treatment of foreign races that many people feel happy while fearing. What are they rejoicing in? I am glad that I am classified as a homogeneous and not considered alien.

Of course, Lu Zhe deliberately implemented such a policy, showing the cruelty and cruelty of foreign races to show blood, so that those who were treated slightly better were glad of their "origin", and some studies have shown that this kind of policy can make society understand what ethnic differences are in a very short period of time, and can also effectively cultivate national centripetal force...... Although that is based on the premise of treating alien cruelty.

Vigorous propaganda is propaganda of "originally a unified ethnic group" and also propaganda of the "centripetal force of the nation", and the idea that "everyone is their own people" is being repeatedly educated. The starting point is, of course, to make the Qiantou in the Chinese territory have a sense of belonging, and it is not that Lu Zhe is working hard for the stability of the rule, and at the same time, he is also implanting an extreme ideology, so as to prepare public opinion in advance for the Chinese ethnic group to become the "war knife" of his subordinates and continue to expand the territory.

Don't talk about nationalist mistakes and other topics, the contemporary era is B.C., there is no global cooperative organization, let alone the talk of human rights, in that environment, there is never a right or wrong way for ethnic groups to compete for living space, and the only way to get a greater living space is to squeeze other ethnic groups. The easiest way to do this is to exterminate the indigenous people of a certain piece of land and determine the ownership of the land once and for all.

In Lu Zhe's view, at this stage, the Chinese ethnic group occupies the advantages of population, culture, science and technology, and productivity, so the Chinese ethnic group at this stage is the "chosen people". If we don't cherish the advantages that are still in the stage of "Chosen People" and expand to the maximum, and wait until a certain ethnic group surpasses the Chinese ethnic group, that is the beginning of disaster.

The emerging ruling class, with LΓΌ Zhe at its core, is working in one direction, and its processes and decisions may be interpreted in different ways. However, the ultimate goal is to vigorously expand the living space of the nation and to increase the territory that the nation can inhabit.

In the process of conquest, the living space of the ethnic group is increased, and having enough living space means that there is less internal competition. It is also the continuous plundering and increasing wealth in the conquest, and the war dividends generated can feed a large number of people, and it is the military that gets the war dividends in advance, after all, they are desperately using blood and life as the vanguard. Wouldn't the expansion of the country's borders improve the lives of the leaders under the rule of the ruling clique?

Therefore, it is not that Lu Zhe chose the extreme way of opening up the people's wisdom, but that the current situation of the times made Lu Zhe choose that way, and embarking on such a path of expansion as soon as possible is to go ahead of other ethnic groups for the Chinese ethnic group.

Ethnic education has been implemented in the Han Kingdom (especially in the Yangtze River region and south of it) for five years, the first to receive this kind of education in the military fully accepted the idea of the supremacy of their own nation, the military has also played a role in the expansion of the outside world to understand the cruelty of the racial game, some of the original children are now young men are growing up, this generation is destined to be the future of the ethnic group, they are also destined to follow the policy of their predecessors in the future to become a part of the expansion of the living space of the ethnic group.

The Han Kingdom rose strongly, and the fashion of the Han Kingdom is the current mainstream of the Chinese land. The "fashion" belonging to the Han Kingdom can be embodied in culture, living habits, and even more thought. The weak have the natural instinct to learn why the strong become strong, and it is natural that although the Qin State does not know everything about the movements of the Han State, it can guess the established national policy.

Lu Zhe is cultivating a "monster", a "monster" full of desire for expansion, using human blood and plundered wealth to make that "monster" full of aggression, the first to suffer damage The Baiyue tribes are almost extinct in the territory of China, and the new victims...... That is, the Saiwaihu people were also ravaged by the ravages of that "monster".

If you don't have that strength to contend with, don't attract the attention of the "monster", especially if the "monster" is still a little sane.

"With the current situation of Great Qin, there is not much war potential that can really be brought into play," Li Si didn't know for what reason, he had been digging scars: "Shu County, Ba County, and Hanzhong County have been ruled by Han Wangzhe for two years, and there has been no large-scale rebellion during this period, even if there is turmoil, it is because of Han Wangzhe's handling of the residents. Beidi County and Shangjun have become war zones since the Hu people moved south, and there has been a massive loss of population and unprecedented damage to production. For now, the only one who can realize the war potential is Neishijun. ”

What is the so-called aboriginal rebellion of Shu County, Ba County, and Hanzhong County? In fact, in terms of distinguishing between non-native ethnic groups, the national policy of the Han State was to give priority to the head of the ethnic group in everything, and to treat non-ethnic groups as an exploitative policy. Shu County, Ba County, and Hanzhong County have always been areas with complex ethnic groups. In addition to the ethnic groups of the Qin region or the Six Kingdoms, there are also Ba people, Shu people, Qiang people and many other ethnic groups.

I don't know what the reason is, except for the Ba and Shu people, who are considered to be their own ethnic groups, the rest of the various ethnic groups are considered alien, and a redivision of the living area, including its habitat, has begun, and a large number of ethnic groups that are not considered to be the head of their own ethnic group have been expelled, and there will be resistance if there is violence, and targeted repression has naturally occurred.

"In the later period, King Zheyou of the Han Dynasty made a strategic change and accepted a large number of naturalized ethnic groups. However, for many ethnic groups, the policy of iron-blooded plunder is still used. Li Si's eyes seemed to be about to light up as he spoke: "Sacrificing the interests of those who are considered aliens to form a community of interests." It has to be said that it is a means of effective occupation, and in the shortest possible time, the majority of the people agree with the rule, and the people who benefit from it are naturally oriented to Han Wangzhe, which is why the land of the three counties is willing to be ruled by Han Wangzhe in a very short period of time. ”

Creating class contradictions, making them distinct, and then developing the struggle to win over the majority of the people are all rotten tricks used by the Celestial Empire, and of course Li Si does not know the root cause of that set of strategies, but it does not prevent him from having enough political experience to discover the role of this strategy.

"Quickly clean up the hearts of the people. The use of the most feasible means to soothe the wounds of war was a quick-acting means of recovering production and the use of people's power among the people, and the leaders of the Central Plains had unwittingly accepted the new ruling group. In less than a year, the officials of Han Wangzhe had already implemented effective administrative rule. If more families with common interests are gathered in the future, and the number of young and strong soldiers in various parts of the Central Plains is increased, according to Han Wangzhe's expansion methods, they will soon be inseparable from each other. ”

"Our war potential is inadequate. The grain and straw depended on the support of Han Wangzhe, not to mention the gap in the population base, and the wanton conscription had severely destroyed its own productive forces. At present, the army of more than 200,000 troops can be maintained because Han Wangzhe is still continuously supplying grain, once Han Wangzhe cuts off the support of grain and straw, can we have enough logistics capacity to maintain the military needs of more than 200,000 troops? ”

Li Si did not use technical terms to introduce the course of history, but he had clearly noticed that the social environment was changing, and the most obvious was that the regional distinctions in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period were also diluted, which was the result of the continuous public opinion propaganda carried out by the Han government.

There is a clear indication that more and more people have turned their attention to foreign plunder under LΓΌ Zhe's rule, and the Qianshou south of the Yangtze River are the people who have received the dividends of expansion to the south in advance, so the Qianshou south of the Yangtze River will also be LΓΌ Zhe's staunchest supporters. Li Si has reason to believe that if the Han army achieves the goal of conquest, the group of Qiantou close to the grassland will be the next profit group, and the Qiantou in the region will inevitably be transformed into Lu Zhe's staunch supporters.

Because of the change in the social state, the formation of a general trend, Li Si received news before returning to Xianyang, saying that Zhao had completed the merger with the Han State in the necessary formalities, and Zhao Di's Qianshou was an accepting attitude towards this. In fact, the problem can already be found from the attitude of Zhao Di Qiantou, which represents that the strategy of the ruling group led by Lu Zhe to govern the territory is in line with the people's will, so Zhao Diren thinks that it is not a bad thing under the rule of Lu Zhe.

"Of course, it is impossible to see the effect in the short term, and it is impossible to judge whether there will be a recurrence." Li Si's speech was accelerating: "But drawing on the cases of the three southwestern counties, there is reason to believe that as long as the investment policy of the state does not turn into exploitation, Zhao Diqianshou will not resist." ”

Fusu's expression couldn't see anything, and he asked, "It's like Longxi?" Longxi relies on a large number of horses and other livestock to make a profit, in the trend of interests of the clans in Longxi took the lead to the Han Wangzhe, as the people also began to profit, Qianshou is also willing to be used by the Han Wangzhe? ”

"Relying on interests to win over, once there is no investment in interests, the first to rebel will inevitably be those people!" Meng Yi was a little excited.

Li Si didn't pay attention to Meng Yi, but he was smiling secretly in his heart, the trend of profit is in line with human nature, isn't Montessori's support for Fusu also out of the need for interests, and all kinds of people working towards a goal also want to get the benefits they want?

"A large number of officials belonging to the state of Zhao were co-opted. The military was quickly absorbed into the expanding interest groups, and was the first to accept the order to go north, and the Zhao army led by Sima Ang had already been reorganized in Yanmen County, and there was no news that the Zhao army, numbering 50,000, was resisting. Local officials are also currently in a state of stability. Because there are examples of Han Wangzhe continuing to appoint magistrates in various counties, the backlash is not too big. ”

Fusu didn't know what it meant to "exert internal pressure outward", nor did he know what it meant to "suppress differences and find common interests", but he could see that Lu Zhe's means of governing were not without hidden worries, but judging from the current situation of Lu Zhe's rapid expansion, it was the most suitable choice at this stage.

"As a country conquered by force in the early stage, that is, the Chu State that was first annexed by the Han State, all strata and families that originally belonged to the court of the Chu State, except for the Xiang family, which was completely purged, most of them have found a position in the Han State, and the talented former Chu State bureaucrats have climbed to high positions one after another, giving the best example to the nations......"

Li Sike didn't talk about the former military generals and civil officials of the Qin State who were absorbed and incorporated by Lu Zhe, it seems that the person who is currently the best mixed in the Han military is Sima Xin, a general who was not reused by the Qin State, and some other generals and schools also have their own developments.

There are too many examples to prove many things, Li Si also heard a lot of news after returning to Xianyang, that is, what is the Montessori is still trying to do when everyone has their own ambitions, with the Wang family and the Xu family returning to Han and getting good treatment, there is a precedent in Longxi, and the magnates of the Qin State also have their own plans.

Montessori is unwilling to accept that his investment has not received a corresponding return, so it is completely understandable that he wants to struggle a little, and Li Si even found a phenomenon, that is, there are too many powerful people consciously creating an atmosphere, as if they want to push Montessori into the fire pit?
