Chapter 292 Expelling the Tartars and Seeing the Great Yuan

Chapter 292 Expelling the Tartars and Seeing the Great Yuan
Little Rangna's point of view made everyone confused for a while.No way, even a well-informed person like Monk Daoyan is probably the first to hear about this theory.

"If you say that, it's not impossible..." Guo Kang smoothed things over.

"Sometimes there is no need to get too entangled in the definition. To be honest, how many civilizations are there in the world, and I have never been a barbarian? Isn't the Persian a history of more than 2000 years of civilization? They migrated here before and annexed the Medes. Then it got richer. All the way to the present, apart from the Central Plains, I can’t think of a second one.”

"So in the final analysis, 'barbarian' should be more of a relative concept." He simply used himself as an example and comforted him: "If I have to say it, I am also a barbarian. My family also ran out of the Central Plains and settled here Several generations. In truth, how is it different from legends like Tabor and Chunwei? It’s not as 'civilized' as them."

"I just think that they care too much about these issues." Little Jeanna said dissatisfiedly: "Every day there, I struggle with who is a barbarian. In the end, even my relatives are counted among the barbarians."

"Uh, it's really not a big deal." Guo Kang comforted: "The system of Zhuxia-barbarians was proposed by Zhou Tianzi. But Zhou Tianzi himself took the lead in not following the defense of Yi and Xia. Di Lian's marriage was finally killed by Xirong's father-in-law. The emperor is like this, and the princes also learned and behaved. Like Jin, they also did similar things."

"So, it's normal to have barbarians among relatives. It's better to say that everyone often jumps back and forth between Zhu Xia and barbarians. Some princes, who obey the emperor of Zhou today, are Zhu Xia. If they don't obey after a few days, they will be expelled. Xia Ji became a barbarian, so this is not a problem at all."

"Just work hard. If you can achieve a successful career in the future, some of them will recognize you as a Chinese." He told little Rangna: "You don't need to tell me when the time comes, everyone will have to become relatives with you."

"I don't expect such things..." Little Rangna originally thought she was only dissatisfied with Zhu Wenkui's words, but when he said that, she hesitated.

"I just think everyone is weird. In the whole world, they are the only ones who are particularly entangled with this ethnic group and that ethnic group. We have never seen anyone here think about these things. Isn't it the same? According to French standards, Kyle The special-speaking Bretons and the German-speaking Lorraine are both French. The standard of distinction is looser than that of the Yuan Dynasty.”

"It's very simple." Guo Kang said with a smile: "In the Central Plains, there is actually no room for expansion. The farming civilization has reached the end of the geographical environment, so we can only keep drawing enemies, and then everyone fights with each other-failure Those who became barbarians were driven out."

"Of course, you can also operate in reverse. If you can't beat others and get kicked out, you can declare that others are barbarians. This example is also right in front of you, so it's not unusual at all..."

"This cycle continues, so they care about the distinction between ethnic groups. In fact, there are too few things to divide. On the contrary, if there are too many things, everyone will immediately change their views and ignore them. When you look at the pre-Qin period, everyone just I don’t care too much about these, in fact, it’s because there is still a lot of room for expansion, so I’m willing to accept these people.”

"It seems to be true when I think about it..." Zhu Wenkui muttered: "I never thought about this before. They said that my great-grandfather started his family by expelling the Tartars, and I have always remembered that..."

"It's true that the slogan is true, but this actually mainly refers to the legitimacy of the regime." Guo Kang helped him analyze it: "You can't tell it just by looking at the Ming Dynasty, but it's obvious when you look at other countries."

"The Grand Duchy of Moscow was the number one taxpayer and thug of the Golden Horde; the Timur regime was a branch of Chagatai, and was also a prince for East Chagatai; Ottoman was the Ilkhanate Agents in Asia Minor. You see, these regional countries in the 'post-Mongol era' basically worked for the Mongols, and then gained recognition and took advantage of the opportunity to develop."

Zhu Wenkui thought about it and found that it was true.

In fact, Guo Kang didn't even finish his sentence.Later, the Safavid Dynasty, which once again unified Persia, was also supported by the Il Khanate.Their religious order was able to develop and grow with the support of the Khanate.

Later, the Mughals in India, the Safavids in Persia, the Ottomans in Eastern Europe, and Russia, a series of powerful countries, can be said to have started out as dogs of the Mongols, with few exceptions.

"Comparing them, you can see why we emphasize the 'expulsion of the Tartars'. This is not an expulsion for individuals, or even a group, but legally." Guo Kang analyzed: "In order to show my special, Pointing out their own legitimacy, only to emphasize it."

"Is that so?" Zhu Wenkui asked suspiciously.

"Of course." Guo Kang said: "In terms of the number of Tatars expelled, the Ming Dynasty is not as good as the Yuan Dynasty."

"Uh……"

"The enemies that were fought at the founding of the Ming Dynasty were basically Han people." He gave an example: "Look at those warlords who were nominally loyal to the Yuan Dynasty: Wang Baobao's subordinates, the main force was from the wealthy families in Henan, and they formed a regiment to train armed forces; Li Siqi's subordinates, the main force It is the powerful armed forces of Guanlong; the main force of Polo Timur's men is the powerful armed forces of Sichuan... To put it bluntly, it is a group of powerful Han people and gentry, defending the Khan with arms."

"At that time, the ordinary Mongols rebelled earlier than the Han people. Before the Red Scarf Army came, the Mongols near Shangdu began to rebel every three days. In the end, the Hongjira tribe rebelled, and the local nobles all rebelled. I fled to Dadu and basically gave up there.”

"The Red Scarf Army may have become the most special peasant army because of this. They started from Bianliang and fought all the way to the grassland, and they were able to replenish their troops." Guo Kang explained: "Zhao and the people in the Central Plains dare not want The Song Dynasty is different, and the Han and Song Dynasties can even incorporate the Mongols."

"Isn't that tribe the tribe of the queens of the Yuan Dynasty?" Little Rangna asked curiously.

"It is indeed." Guo Kang nodded: "But the nobles are relatives of the emperor. What does this have to do with the herdsmen?"

"It seems to be..."

"So, I guess it's not a problem in this area." Guo Kang said, reminding: "As for the more core reason, it is not obvious in China, but if you compare it with other people, you will know that your Taizu It is so strange that the Lord never worked for the Mongols."

Guo Kang is actually not sure whether Zhu Yuanzhang really accepted the title of the Yuan Dynasty, but it doesn't really matter.At least he saved his family property by himself, and he didn't take the initiative to ask the Yuan Dynasty to fight.This alone is different from almost all other countries.

Even the Moscow country of later generations dared to brazenly say that it was resisting the Mongol regime, and the curve saved the country successfully.Then Zhu Yuanzhang has nothing to feel guilty about boasting this sentence.

The Zhu Wenkui brothers and sisters were speechless for a while.
